Compared with Al (10 mmol/L) treatment alone, ALA (50 μmol/L) pretreatment for 24 h significantly enhanced cell viability by 28.40%, and hindered cell apoptosis by 12.35%, together with recovering redox state balance and alleviating mitochondrial damage. It was measured that ALA treatment upregulated Bcl-2 expression and down-regulated Bax level, accompanied with an expression decline of caspase-3 and caspase-9. Meanwhile, ALA pretreatment was proved to increase protein kinase A (PKA) expression and to promote phosphorylation of cAMP response element-binding protein (p-CREB), resulting in elevation on the level of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF).
