Abstract

Neocuproine is a free radical scavenger. Neuroblastoma cancer is seen mostly in children. It accounts for approximately 15% of all pediatric cancer deaths. Treatments against SH-SY5Y may be ineffective due to the development of drug resistance, resulting in poor survival in high-risk patients. The goal of this study was to find out how the anti-cancer concentration of Neocuproine affected the levels of oxidants, antioxidants, and cytokines in the SH-SY5Y cell line. Five different concentrations of Neocuproine (12.5, 25, 50, 100, and 200 μM) were applied to the cell line for 24 h. MTT cytotoxicity tests, total oxidant status and total antioxidant capacity tests, and anti-inflammatory cytokine tests were used to look at the uses of Neocuproine. In our results, 100 μM Neocuproine application reduced cancer cell viability up to 69.76%. In addition, it was determined that 100 μM Neocuproine reduced oxidant activity, increased antioxidant capacity, and regulated anti-inflammatory cytokine levels in neuroblastoma cells, consistent with the cytotoxicity test. As a result, it was concluded that Neocuproine has an anti-cancer effect on the SH-SY5Y cell line.
