AIM: To investigate the effect of butylphthalide on apoptosis of hippocampal neurons in Alzheimer disease (AD) rats via SIRT1/NF-κB signaling pathway and its mechanism. METHODS: AD rat model was established by intragastric administration of AlCl3 and intraperitoneal injection of D-galactose. After treated with butylphthalide at 25 mg/kg (low dose), 50 mg/kg (medium dose) and 100 mg/kg (high dose), the effects of butylphthalide on the morphology of hippocampal neurons, apoptosis rate, and the protein levels of Bcl-2, Bax, cleaved caspase-3 and the SIRT1/NF-κB signaling pathway associated proteins were determined by HE staining, flow cytometry and Western blot, respectively. After treated with SIRT1 agonist SRT1720 and inhibitor sirtinol, the role of SIRT1/NF-κB signaling pathway in hippocampal neuronal apoptosis was observed. On the basis of giving 50 mg/kg butylphthalide, sirtinol was administered, and the effect of butylphthalide on neuronal apoptosis regulated by SIRT1/NF-κB signaling pathway was evaluated. RESULTS: The morphology of hippocampal neurons in the AD rats were improved, the apoptosis rate of hippocampal neurons and the protein levels of Bax and cleaved caspase-3 were inhibited, and the protein levels of Bcl-2 and the activation of SIRT1/NF-κB signaling pathway were promoted by butylphthalide significantly (P<0.05). The protein expression of Bcl-2 and the activation of SIRT1/NF-κB signaling pathway were promoted, and the apoptosis of hippocampal neurons and the protein levels of Bax and cleaved caspase-3 were inhibited by SRT1720 remarkably (P<0.05), whereas the effect of sirtinol was contrary to that of SRT1720. After sirtinol treatment, the inhibitory effect of butylphthalide on apoptosis of hippocampal neurons, the protein levels of Bax and cleaved caspase-3, and the promotion of Bcl-2 protein expression in hippocampal neurons were markedly weakened (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Butylphthalide inhibits the apoptosis of hippocampal neurons in the AD rats by down-regulating the protein expression of Bax and cleaved caspase-3, and up-regulating the protein expression of Bcl-2 through activating SIRT1/NF-κB signaling pathway.  相似文献

AIM:To investigate the effects of ixazomib on the apoptosis and NF-κB signaling pathway in pancreatic cancer cells. METHODS:Human pancreatic cancer cell lines CFPAC-1 and PANC-1 were cultured, and the cells were treated with ixazomib at 0, 10, 20, 30 and 40 nmol/L for 12, 18, 24 and 48 h. The expression of NF-κB p65, IκB kinase (IKK), Bax and caspase-3 in the cells at mRNA and protein levels was determined by RT-qPCR and Western blot. The cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay. The apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. RESULTS:Treatment with ixazomib at 10~40 nmol/L inhibited the viability of PANC-1 cells and CFPAC-1 cells, and the inhibitory rate was increased significantly with the increases in the concentration and time (P<0.05). Compared with the control cells, treatment with ixazomib significantly increased the apoptotic rates of PANC-1 cells and CFPAC-1 cells in a dose- dependent manner (P<0.05), and significantly decreased the mRNA expression levels of NF-κB p65 and IKK in the PANC-1 cells and CFPAC-1 cells (P<0.05), while the mRNA expression levels of apoptotic factors Bax and caspase-3 in the PANC-1 cells and CFPAC-1 cells were significantly increased (P<0.05). The results of Western blot showed that treatment with ixazomib significantly decreased the protein levels of NF-κB p65 and IKK in the PANC-1 cells and CFPAC-1 cells (P<0.05), which was consistent with the results of mRNA expression. The protein levels of apoptosis factors Bax and caspase-3 in the CFPAC-1 cells were significantly increased (P<0.05), and the protein level of caspase-3 in the PANC-1 cells was increased significantly (P<0.05). However, Bax protein did not increase significantly in 10 nmol/L ixazomib group. CONCLUSION:Ixazomib, a proteasome inhibitor, inhibits the viability of pancreatic cancer cells and promotes apoptosis by inhibiting the activation of NF-κB signaling pathway in a time- and dose-dependent manner.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of DEK downregulation on the apoptosis of gastric carcinoma SGC-7901 cells, and to explore its associations with NF-κB signaling pathway and apoptosis related proteins. METHODS: SGC-7901 cells with different treatments were divided into 3 groups including untreated group, control siRNA group and DEK siRNA group. The expression of DEK at mRNA and protein levels in the SGC-7901 cells was detected by real-time PCR and Western blot. The cell apoptosis was examined by flow cytometry. Furthermore, the activities of caspase-3 and caspase-9 in the SGC-7901 cells were investigated by Caspase-Glo®-3/9 kit. Finally, the expression of key regulatory protein p65 of NF-κB signaling pathway and apoptosis-related proteins Bcl-2 and Bax in the SGC-7901 cells was investigated by Western blot. RESULTS: Compared with untreated group and control siRNA group, the expression of DEK at mRNA and protein levels was significantly downregulated in DEK siRNA group (P<0.05). In addition, the ratios of early phase apoptosis and total apoptosis in DEK siRNA group were markedly higher than those in untreated group and control siRNA group (P<0.05). Most notably, the decrease in p65 and Bcl-2 proteins, increase in Bax protein and the increases of caspase-3 and caspase-9 activities were observed in DEK siRNA group. CONCLUSION: Downregulation of DEK mediates cell apoptosis of gastric carcinoma may be tightly associated with NF-κB signaling pathway.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the regulatory effect of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) inhibitor, pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC), on nerve function and neural cell apoptosis in rats after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). METHODS: SPF Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 4 groups with 6 rats in each group:sham group, ICH group, PDTC at low concentration (Plow) group and PDTC at high concentration (Phigh) group. Autologous blood injection was used to establish ICH model. After 2 h of surgery, the rats in Plow group and Phigh group were intraperitoneal injected with PDTC at 100 mg/kg and 200 mg/kg, respectively, while rats in sham group and ICH group were injected with the same volume of saline. The neurological function score was classified with modified Longa grading method. TUNEL assay was used to detected the neural cell apoptosis, and the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) and the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) were measured. Furthermore, the protein levels of p-P65 and cleaved caspase-3 in brain tissues were determined by Western blot. RESULTS: Compared with sham group, the rats in ICH group had higher neurological function score (P<0.05). After treatment with PDTC, the neurological function score was decreased (P<0.05), but no significant difference between Plow group and Phigh group was observed. Compared with sham group, the number of apoptotic cells in ICH group was increased (P<0.05). After treatment with PDTC, the neural cell apoptosis was restrained, and the number of apoptotic cells in Phigh group was lower than that in Plow group (P<0.05). Compared with sham group, the content of MDA was increased and the activity of SOD was decreased in ICH group (P<0.05). After treatment with PDTC, the content of MDA was decreased while the activity of SOD was increased, and the variation trend was more obvious in Phigh group (P<0.05). Compared with sham group, the protein levels of p-P65 and cleaved caspase-3 in ICH group were increased (P<0.05). After treatment with PDTC, the protein levels of p-P65 and cleaved caspase-3 were decreased, and those in Phigh group were lower than those in Plow group. CONCLUSION: NF-κB inhibitor PDTC plays a role in the se-condary brain injury after ICH, and the protective effect increases at the higher dose. The mechanism may be related to reducing MDA content and increasing SOD activity, and further inhibiting neural cell apoptosis.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of inhibiting high-mobility group box protein 1 (HMGB1) expression on the viability and apoptosis of hemangioma endothelial cells (HemECs). METHODS: Human HemECs were isolated and cultured, and HMGB1 small interfering RNA (HMGB1-siRNA) was transfected into the cells. The cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay. The apoptosis and reactive oxygen species (ROS) content were analyzed by flow cytometry. The protein levels of HMGB1, NF-κB p65, p-IκBα, cyclin D1 and survivin were determined by Western blot. RESULTS: The protein expression of HMGB1 in the HemECs transfected with HMGB1-siRNA was significantly lower than that in blank control group (P<0.05). Compared with NC group, the cell viability was decreased significantly in the HemECs transfected with HMGB1-siRNA, the apoptotic rate was significantly increased, the content of ROS increased significantly, and the protein levels of NF-κB p65, p-IκBα, cyclin D1 and survivin were significantly decreased (P<0.05). After exposure to NF-κB signaling pathway inhibitor PDTC, the cell viability was inhibited, the apoptosis was increased, ROS content, and the protein levels of NF-κB p65, p-IκBα, cyclin D1 and survivin were down-regulated significantly, as compared with si-HMGB1 group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Inhibition of HMGB1 reduces the viability of HemECs and induces apoptosis by increasing the content of ROS and down-regulating the activity of NF-κB signaling pathway.  相似文献

AIM: To study whether the angiotensin-(1-7)[Ang-(1-7)]/Mas receptor axis protects cardiomyocytes against high glucose(HG)-induced injury by inhibiting nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB) pathway. METHODS: The cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay. The intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species(ROS) were detected by DCFH-DA staining. The number of apoptotic cells was tested by Hoechst 33258 nuclear staining. Mitochondrial membrane potential(MMP) was examined by JC-1 staining. The levels of NF-κB p65 subunit and cleaved caspase-3 protein were determined by Western blotting. RESULTS: Treatment of H9c2 cardiac cells with 35 mmol/L glucose(HG) for 30, 60, 90, 120 and 150 min significantly enhanced the levels of phosphorated(p) NF-κB p65, peaking at 60 min. Co-treatment of the cells with 1 μmol/L Ang-(1-7) and HG for 60 min attenuated the up-regulation of p-NF-κB p65 induced by HG. Co-treatment of the cells with Ang-(1-7) at concentrations of 0.1~30 μmol/L and HG for 24 h inhibited HG-induced cytotoxicity, evidenced by an increase in cell viability. On the other hand, 1 μmol/L Ang-(1-7) ameliorated HG-induced apoptosis, oxidative stress and mitochondrial damage, indicated by decreases in the number of apoptotic cells, cleaved caspase-3 level, ROS generation and MMP loss. However, the above cardioprotective effects of Ang-(1-7) were markedly blocked by A-779, an antagonist of Ang-(1-7) receptor(Mas receptor). Similarly, co-treatment of H9c2 cardiac cells with 100 μmol/L PDTC(an inhibitor of NF-κB) and HG for 24 h also obviously reduced the above injuries induced by HG. CONCLUSION: Ang-(1-7)/Mas receptor axis prevents the cardiomyocytes from the HG-induced injury by inhibiting NF-κB pathway.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of salvianolate on oxidative damage induced by hydrogen peroxide in human endothelial EA.hy926 cells.METHODS: EA.hy926 cells were cultured in vitro and divided into the following groups:control group, damage group, and anti-damage groups (salvianolate+damage groups). The cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay. The migration ability of the EA.hy926 cells was detected by Transwell assay. The content of nitric oxide (NO) in the culture supernatant of the EA.hy926 cells was examined. The levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were detected by ELISA. The apoptosis,mitochondrial membrane potential and intracellular superoxide anion content of the EA.hy926 cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. The protein levels of caspase-3, cleaved caspase-3, Bcl-2, Bax, NF-κB and p53 were determined by Western blot. RESULTS: Compared with damage group, the viability of EA.hy926 cells pretreated with salvianolate at different concentrations was significantly increased (P<0.05). The apoptotic rate was significantly decreased (P<0.05). Savianolate enhanced the migration ability of the cells. The levels of VEGF, NO and mitochondrial transmembrane potential were increased (P<0.05), and the intracellular ROS level was significantly decreased (P<0.05). The protein levels of NF-κB, p53, Bax and cleaved caspase-3 were significantly decreased, and the protein level of Bcl-2 was markedly increased(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Savianolate reduces the damage of EA.hy926 cells by hydrogen peroxide exposure, and its mechanism may be related to the blocking of NF-κB signaling pathway.  相似文献

AIM: To study the effect of histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) on the apoptosis of breast cancer cells.METHODS: The expression of HDAC1 at mRNA and protein levels in normal mammary epithelial cell line MCF-10A and breast cancer cell lines BT549, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 was measured by RT-qPCR and Western blot. HDAC1 siRNA was transfected into MDA-MB-231 cells, and then RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to determine the expression level of HDAC1. The cell viability was measured by MTT assay, and apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. The protein levels of β-catenin, c-Myc, cyclin D1 and cleaved caspase-3 were determined by Western blot. Breast cancer cells with HDAC1 knockdown were treated with Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway activator, and then the cell viability and apoptosis were measured.RESULTS: The expression of HDAC1 at mRNA and protein levels in BT549, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells was significantly higher than that in normal mammary epithelial cell line MCF-10A, and the highest expression level of HDAC1 was observed in MDA-MB-231 cells (P<0.05). HDAC1 siRNA reduced the expression of HDAC1 at mRNA and protein levels in the breast cancer cells. The viability of MDA-MB-231 cells was decreased after knockdown of HDAC1 expression, the apoptotic rate was increased, the protein level of cleaved caspase-3 in the cells was elevated, and the protein levels of β-catenin, c-Myc and cyclin D1 were decreased (P<0.05). Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway activator reversed HDAC1 knockdown-induced apoptosis and decrease in viability of MDA-MB-231 cells, and reduced the protein level of cleaved caspase-3.CONCLUSION: Knockdown of HDAC1 expression induces apoptosis of breast cancer cells by inhibiting the activation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.  相似文献

AIM: To study the effect of integrin β1 on multidrug resistance in gastric cancer and its possible mechanisms. METHODS: The expression of integrin β1 at mRNA and protein levels in the SGC-7901 cells and SGC-7901/DDP cells was determined by qPCR and Western blot. The expression of integrin β1 in the SGC-7901/DDP cells was silenced by antisense oligodeoxynucleotide. The cell viability was detected by the CCK-8 assay, the cell apoptosis were analyzed by flow cytometry, and the protein levels of integrin β1, Bcl-2/Bax, cleaved caspase-3/caspase-3, cytochrome C (Cyt-C) and p-AKT/AKT were determined by Western blot.RESULTS: The expression of integrin β1 at both mRNA and protein levels was significantly upregulated in SGC-7901/DDP cells. The expression of integrin β1 was increased in SGC-7901 cells treated with chemotherapeutic agents such as cisplatin, paclitaxel and 5-fluorouracil. Knockdown of integrin β1 induced apoptosis of SGC-7901/DDP cells with an increased sensitivity to the chemotherapeutic agents. Meanwhile, knockdown of integrin β1 downregulated the protein levels of Bcl-2/Bax, p-AKTSer473 and p-AKTThr308, while promoted the release of Cyt-C and upregulated the protein level of cleaved caspase-3. CONCLUSION: Knockdown of integrin β1 increases the sensitivity of SGC-7901/DDP cells to the chemotherapeutic agents, and promotes the cell apoptosis via mitochondrial apoptosis pathway. The mechanism may be related to the attenuation of AKT pathway by inhibiting phosphorylations of AKT at Ser473 and Thr308.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC), a specific inhibitor of NF-κB on the proliferation and apoptosis of K562 cells and to explore the anti-tumor mechanism of PDTC.METHODS: Trans AMTM NF-κB p65 kit was used to detect the activity of p65 in K562 cells treated by PDTC. The effect of PDTC on the proliferation of K562 cells was measured by WST-1 method. DNA damage was detected by single cell gel electrophoresis (comet assay). The procaspase-3 and activated protein level of caspase-3 were detected by Western blotting.RESULTS: The activity of p65 in K562 cells was inhibited after treated by PDTC (P<0.01). Simultaneously the cell proliferation was significantly inhibited in a dose-and time-dependent manner (P<0.01). The degree of DNA damage in K562 cells treated with PDTC at concentrations of 25 μmol/L, 50 μmol/L or 100 μmol/L was more severe than that in control. The rates of comet cells in the PDTC-treated groups (43.50％, 84.00％, 95.63％) were significantly higher than those in control (9.75％, P<0.01), and it was also dose-dependent. The expression of procaspase-3 and activated caspase-3 protein were detected in the cytoplasm of the K562 cells treated by PDTC by Western blotting.CONCLUSION: NF-κB plays an important role in regulating cell proliferation and apoptosis in K562 cells. PDTC inhibits NF-κB activity and elevates the expression of caspase-3, which is related to increase in cell apoptosis.  相似文献

AIM: To study the role of β-catenin in the apoptosis of pancreatic acinar cells induced by cae-rulein. METHODS: Rat pancreatic acinar AR42J cells were treated with caerulein. The expression of β-catenin at mRNA and protein levels in the AR42J cells was determined by real-time PCR and Western blot. The β-catenin over-expression vector was transfected into AR42J cells. After treatment with caerulein, the over-expression effect was evaluated by real-time PCR and Western blot. The changes of cell viability were measured by MTT assay. The leakage rates of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and amylase (AMY) were measured by binitrophenyl hydrazine method and iodine starch colorimetry, respectively. The apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. The protein levels of endoplasmic reticulum stress protein CHOP and cleaved caspase-12 in the AR42J cells were determined by Western blot. RESULTS: The expression of β-catenin at mRNA and protein levels in the AR42J cells was decreased after treatment with caerulein (P<0.05). The expression of β-catenin in the AR42J cells was significantly increased by transfection with β-catenin over-expression vector. The viability of AR42J cells after treatment with caerulein was reduced, while the leakage rates of LDH and AMY, the apoptotic rate and the protein levels of CHOP and cleaved caspase-12 in the cells were increased (P<0.05). Over-expression of β-catenin enhanced the viability of AR42J cells after treatment with caerulein, reduced the leakage rates of LDH and AMY, and decreased the apoptotic rate and the protein levels of CHOP and cleaved caspase-12 in the AR42J cells. CONCLUSION: β-Catenin significantly inhibits the apoptosis of pancreatic acinar cells induced by caerulein. The mechanism is related to the reduction of endoplasmic reticulum stress.  相似文献

AIM: To explore the role of NADPH oxidase 1 (NOX1) in tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)-induced oxidative damage and inflammation in alveolar epithelial cells.METHODS: The mRNA and protein expression levels of NOX1 in alveolar epithelial cells after TNF-α treatment were determined by real-time PCR and Western blot. NOX1 siRNA and its negative control were transfected into the alveolar epithelial cells. After the induction of TNF-α, NOX1 levels in the cells were measured by real-time PCR and Western blot, and the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in the cells was detected by thiobarbituric acid method. Xanthine oxidation assay was used to detect the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the cells. The contents of interleukin-4 (IL-4), IL-6 and IL-1β in cell culture medium were examined by ELISA. The rate of apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. Western blot was used to detect the level of apoptotic protein cleaved caspase-3.RESULTS: The expression of NOX1 at mRNA and protein levels in TNF-α-induced cells was increased after induction (P<0.05). After transfection of NOX1 siRNA, the expression of NOX1 at mRNA and protein levels in the cell was downregulated (P<0.05). Transfection of siRNA negative control had no effect on the expression level of NOX1 in the cells. The content of MDA in the cells after TNF-α treatment was increased, the activity of SOD was reduced, the releases of IL-4, IL-6 and IL-1β by the cells were increased, and the apoptotic rate and the level of apoptotic protein cleaved caspase-3 were increased as compared with the cells that were not treated with TNF-α (P<0.05). The content of MDA in the cells with NOX1 knockdown induced by TNF-α was reduced, the activity of SOD elevated, and the releases IL-4, IL-6 and IL-1β, the apoptotic rate and the level of apoptotic protein cleaved caspase-3 decreased, as compared with the cells only treated with TNF-α induction (P<0.05).CONCLUSION: TNF-α induces the expression of NOX1 in the alveolar epithelial cells. Knockdown of NOX1 expression reduces cellular oxidative damage, releases of inflammatory factors, and cell apoptosis.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the role of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and transient receptor potential channel 6 (TRPC6) signaling pathway in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) P65 expression and nuclear translocation in airway epithelial cells (16HBE) for supplementing the mechanism for airway inflammation. METHODS: After stimulating the 16HBE cells with LPS at 1 mg/L for 0, 0.5, 2, 6, 12 and 24 h, the expression of NF-κB P65 at mRNA and protein levels in the 16HBE cells were determined by RT-PCR and Western blot respectively, and the nuclear translocation of NF-κB P65 was detected by immunocytochemical staining method. The effects of TLR4 inhibitor CLI-095 at 5 μmol/L and TRPC6 agonist Hyp9 at 10 μmol/L on LPS (1 mg/L)-induced NF-κB P65 expression and nuclear translocation in the 16HBE cells were determined by RT-PCR, Western blot and immunocytochemical staining. RESULTS: LPS increased the mRNA and protein expression of NF-κB P65 and nuclear translocation in the 16HBE cells(P<0.05). TLR4 inhibitor CLI-095 reduced the mRNA and protein expression of NF-κB P65 and nuclear translocation induced by LPS, while Hyp9 enhanced the mRNA and protein expression of NF-κB P65 and nuclear translocation induced by LPS in the 16HBE cells(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: LPS induces the expression and nuclear translocation of NF-κB P65 in the 16HBE cells via TLR4-TRPC6 signaling pathway.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) silencing on apoptosis of squamous cell carcinoma of skin. METHODS: Skin squamous cell carcinoma A431 cells were transfected with HDAC1 small interfering RNA (HDAC1 siRNA) or small interfering RNA negative control (siRNA NC). The expression levels of HDAC1 in transfected cells were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot. The cell viability was measured by MTT assay, and the apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. The protein levels of STAT3, p-STAT3 and cleaved caspase-3 were determined by Western blot. The inhibitor of STAT3 signaling pathway was used to treat the A431 cells transfected with HDAC1 siRNA. The cell viability was detected by MTT assay, the apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry, and the protein levels of STAT3, p-STAT3 and cleaved caspase-3 were determined by Western blot. RESULTS: HDAC1 siRNA inhibited the expression of HDAC1 at mRNA and protein levels in the A431 cells. After interfering with the expression of HDAC1, the cell viability and the protein level of p-STAT3 in the cells decreased, while the apoptotic rate and the protein level of cleaved caspase-3 in the cells were increased. After treatment with the inhibitor of STAT3 pathway, the viability of A431 cells transfected with siRNA and the protein level of p-STAT3 decreased, while the apoptotic rate and the protein le-vel of cleaved caspase-3 in the cells were increased. CONCLUSION: Interference with HDAC1 expression may regulate the STAT3 signaling pathway to inhibit the viability of skin squamous cell carcinoma cells, thus promoting the apoptosis of squamous cell carcinoma of skin.  相似文献

AIM: To study the effect of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) on cisplatin resistance of human breast cancer MCF-7 cells and its possible mechanisms.METHODS: The expression of PARP-1 at mRNA and protein levels in MCF-7 cells and MCF-7/DDP cells was determined by real-time PCR and Western blot. The expression of PARP-1 in the MCF-7/DDP cells was blocked by PARP-1 siRNA. The cell viability and apoptosis were detected by the CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry analysis, respectively. Furthermore, the protein levels of PARP-1, Bcl-2, Bax, cleaved caspase-3, caspase-3, cytochrome C (Cyto-C), extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and phosphorylated ERK (p-ERK) were detected by Western blot.RESULTS: The expression of PARP-1 at both mRNA and protein levels was significantly up-regulated in the MCF-7/DDP cells. The expression of PARP-1 was increased in the MCF-7 cells treated with cisplatin. Knockdown of PARP-1 induced the apoptosis of MCF-7/DDP cells with an increased sensitivity to cisplatin. Meanwhile, knockdown of PARP-1 down-regulated the protein levels of Bcl-2/Bax and p-ERK, but up-regulated the protein levels of cleaved caspase-3 and Cyto-C. After incubated with a specific ERK inhibitor U0126, the cell viability in PARP-1 siRNA group was down-regulated significantly.CONCLUSION: Knockdown of PARP-1 increases the sensitivity of MCF-7/DDP cells to cisplatin, and promotes the cell apoptosis via mitochondrial apoptosis pathway. The mechanism may be related to the attenuation of ERK signaling pathway by inhibiting phosphorylation of ERK.  相似文献

AIM To investigate the inhibitory effect of andrographolide （AG） on human osteosarcoma 143B cells and its underlying molecular mechanism. METHODS Osteosarcoma 143B cells were cultured in vitro and treated with AG at different concentrations (0~20 μmol/L), and the effect of AG on the proliferation of 143B cells was determined by crystal violet staining, MTT assay and colony formation assay. The wound-healing assay was performed to detect the migration ability of osteosarcoma 143B cells. Transwell assay was performed to analyze the invasive capacity of osteosarcoma 143B cells. The effect of AG on the apoptosis of osteosarcoma 143B cells was detected by Hoechst 33258 staining and flow cytometry. After treatment with of AG at different concentrations, the protein levels of the molecules related to proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis of osteosarcoma 143B cells were determined by Western blot. The expression of β-catenin and its related molecule c-Myc in the Wnt signaling pathway was analyzed by Western blot. RESULTS Compared with blank group, the proliferation, migration and invasion of osteosarcoma 143B cells in AG treatment group were significantly inhibited (P<0.05) in a concentration-dependent manner. The expression levels of invasion- and migration-related proteins matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), vimentin and Snail were all down-regulated (P<0.05). AG also increased the expression of antiapoptotic protein Bcl-2, and the levels of apoptosis-related protein caspase-3 was decreased but cleaved caspase-3 was increased. At the same time, the expression levels of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway related proteins β-catenin and c-Myc were significantly decreased (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Andrographolide may inhibit the proliferation, migration, and invasion of osteosarcoma 143B cells and promote their apoptosis by inhibiting the activity of Wnt signaling pathway.  相似文献

AIM:To study the apoptotic effect of TNFα on rat pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells(PMVEC)and the role of Fas, NF-κB in its mechanism. METHODS: Apoptosis of PMVEC was analyzed and quantitated with TUNEL, flow cytometer. Northern blot was applied to assess the influence of TNFα on PMVEC Fas expression. Fas antibody was used to investigate the apoptotic effect of Fas on PMVEC. Activation of caspase-8 was examined by Western blot. Expression of caspase-3 was analyzed with histo-immunochemical staining. RESULTS:Growth curve showed that TNFα suppressed endothelial cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. After treatment with 5×106U/LTNFα, apoptotic rate was 14.0%±3.1% detected with TUNEL, and 13.1% with flow cytometer. When the cells were co-cultured with TNFα and APDC, an NF-κB inhibitor, less cells were viable and more cells were positively stained with TUNEL. Fas expression in PMVEC was elevated after TNFα treatment. Co-culturing with Anti-Fas antibody aggravated PMVEC apoptosis. Caspase-8 activity and caspase-3 expression was elevated. Caspase-3 inhibitor significantly ameliorated PMVEC apoptosis. CONCLUSION: Large dose of TNFα(5×106U/L) can induce apoptosis in rat PMVEC. NF-κB has an anti-apoptotic effect in PMVEC. TNFα up-regulates Fas expression in PMVEC, and the latter takes a part in apoptosis. Caspase-8 and caspase-3 are involved in PMVEC apoptosis induced by TNFα.  相似文献
