Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the concentration and duration of andrographolide exposure that is harmless to pancreatic beta cells (INS-1) and the optimum andrographolide concentration that can protect these cells from glucotoxicity.


Materials and Methods: Cell viability in response to andrographolide was evaluated using MTT assay and compared against controls under the following conditions: 1) Exposure to 0.1-100 μmol/L andrographolide for 1-5 days in normal glucose (11 mmol/L glucose) and 2) in high glucose (40 mmol/L glucose), exposure to 0.1-10 μmol/L andrographolide for 3-5 days.


Results: In normal glucose condition, the mean percentage viability of INS-1 cells in 0.1-10 μmol/L andrographolide for 1-5 days was not statistically different from the control. In high glucose condition the tested andrographolide concentrations and duration of exposure could not reduce cell death from glucotoxicity.


Conclusion: The optimal andrographolide concentration and duration of exposure in normal glucose condition are up to 10 μmol/L for approximately 5 days, which does not affect pancreatic beta cells viability. However, 0.1-10 μmol/L andrographolide could not enhance cell survival in high glucose condition.
