Neuroprotection against Oxidative Stress by Estrogens: Structure-Activity Relationship

Christian Behl, Thomas Skutella, Frank Lezoualc'H, Anke Post, Martina Widmann, Christopher J. Newton, and Florian Holsboer

Max Planck Institute of Psychiatry, Clinical Institute, 80804 Munich, Germany (C.B., F.L., A.P., M.W., C.J.N., F.H.), and Institute of Anatomy, Charité Berlin, 10098 Berlin, Germany (T.S.)

Oxidative stress-induced neuronal cell death has been implicated in different neurological disorders and neurodegenerative diseases; one such ailment is Alzheimer's disease. Using the Alzheimer's disease-associated amyloid beta  protein, glutamate, hydrogen peroxide, and buthionine sulfoximine, we investigated the neuroprotective potential of estrogen against oxidative stress-induced cell death. We show that 17-beta -estradiol, its nonestrogenic stereoisomer, 17-alpha -estradiol, and some estradiol derivatives can prevent intracellular peroxide accumulation and, ultimately, the degeneration of primary neurons, clonal hippocampal cells, and cells in organotypic hippocampal slices. The neuroprotective antioxidant activity of estrogens is dependent on the presence of the hydroxyl group in the C3 position on the A ring of the steroid molecule but is independent of an activation of estrogen receptors.
