Description of (Gly¹⁴)-Humanin (human)

(Gly14)-Humanin (human) is a potent analogue of Humanin, with highly neuroprotective activity[1]. (Gly14)-Humanin activates the Nrf2/GPX4 pathway, which reduces cellular oxidative stress and inhibits ferroptosis, thereby alleviating oligoasthenozoospermia in mice[2]. (Gly14)-Humanin has been widely used in vascular endothelial research to prevent lipid aggregation and cell death[3].

In vitro, (Gly14)-Humanin (0.1µM) was pre-treated for 6 hours, which protected PC12 cells from cell death induced by Aβ25-35, restored mitochondrial membrane potential and blocked the release of cytochrome c[4]. 1µM of (Gly14)-Humanin pretreatment for 3 hours inhibited apoptosis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) triggered by high glucose (50mM) and reduced ROS production and PARP expression[5].

In vivo, (Gly14)-Humanin treatment via a single injection (i.c.v.) at a dose of 1000pmol (5µl) within 30 minutes improved scopolamine-caused learning and memory deficits in mice[6]. Continuous intraperitoneal injection of (Gly14)-Humanin (10mg/kg/day) for 6 consecutive weeks improved ovarian function and body weight in a mouse model of primary ovarian insufficiency and alleviated ovarian oxidative stress[7]. (Gly14)-Humanin (0.1µg) was administered (i.p.) every other day for 3 months, which improved the cognitive deficits in the middle-aged APPswe/PS1dE9 mice and reduced Aβ plaque deposition and alleviated neuroinflammation[8].

Protocol of (Gly¹⁴)-Humanin (human)

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs)

Preparation Method

HUVECs were cultured in DMEM medium, supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), and 1% penicillin/streptomycin at 37°C in an incubator with 5% CO2. High glucose treatment was performed by treating HUVECs with 30mM glucose for 72h. Controls were performed in the presence of media with normal glucose alone (5.5mM). Cells were pretreated with (Gly14)-Humanin (1µM; 3h) before exposure to high glucose. Collect cells and analyze the levels of β-galactosidase and SIRT6.

Reaction Conditions

1µM; 3h

Applications

(Gly14)-Humanin pretreatment inhibited high-glucose induced β-galactosidase upregulation and SIRT6 downregulation in HUVECs.
Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

Female APPswe/PS1dE9 mice

Preparation Method

Female APPswe/PS1dE9 mice were housed under standard conditions: temperature (22-24°C) and humidity (40-60%), 12h light/dark cycle with ad libitum access to food and normal drinking water. Each mouse with (Gly14)-Humanin treatment received (Gly14)-Humanin dissolved in normal saline every other day by intraperitoneal injection (0.1μg/0.5ml in saline), while each mouse with vehicle treatment received an equal volume of saline injection (0.5ml) as the control. Treatment was started when the mice were 9 months old and was continued for 3 months. Mice were deeply anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital (100mg/kg; i.p.), and perfused transcardially with 100ml of cold normal saline. Brains were removed for analysis.

Dosage form

0.1µg; every other day; 3 months; i.p.

Applications

(Gly14)-Humanin significantly reduced cerebral Aβ plaque deposition, insoluble Aβ levels, and neuroinflammatory responses in APPswe/PS1dE9 mice.
