AIM:To elucidate whether ZFP580 is involved in the cardioprotective effects of hypoxic preconditioning (HPC) against hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R) injury in H9c2 myocardial cells. METHODS:Rat heart-derived H9c2 cells were cultured in DMEM. H/R was induced by incubation under ischemic hypoxia for 3 h and reoxygenation for 2 h. HPC was induced by exposing the H9c2 cells to 10 min of hypoxia and 20 min of reoxygenation for 3 cycles before H/R treatment. MTT staining and LDH leakage detection were used to evaluate the effects of HPC. Western blotting was used to detect the protein levels of ZFP580, phosphorylated ERK1/2 and cleaved caspased-3. The effects of ZFP580 overexpre-ssion or knockdown on H/R induced apoptosis were determined. RESULTS:The results of MTT staining and LDH leakage detection showed evidence of HPC cytoprotection against H/R-induced cell death in H9c2 cells. ZFP580 protein level and ERK1/2 phosphorylation were significantly increased in the HPC group compared with control group and H/R group. PD98059, an inhibitor of ERK1/2 phosphorylation, significantly suppressed the HPC-induced up-regulation of ZFP580 protein expression. ZFP580 overexpression significantly inhibited apoptosis and caspase-3 activation in H9c2 cells. CONCLUSION:HPC exhibits cytoprotection against H/R and leads to high level of ZFP580 protein in H9c2 cells. ZFP580 is regulated by ERK1/2 activation and mediates the anti-apoptotic effect of the ERK1/2 signaling pathway in HPC cytoprotection.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of lipopolysaccharide, hypoxia/reoxygenation,isoproterenol and high concentration of glucose on glycine receptor α1 subunit mRNA expression in the neonatal rat cardiomyocytes. METHODS: Isolation of cardiomyocytes from Sprague-Dawley rats aging 1~3 d were performed. Cardiomyocytes (1×105~5×105 cells·L-1)were cultured in DMEM medium containing 15% fetal bovine serum at 37 ℃ in 5%CO2 atmosphere for 72 h. Then, cultured rat cardiomyocytes were treated with lipopolysaccharide, isoproterenol or high concentration of glucose for 24 h, respectively, or were exposed to hypoxia for 3 h followed by reoxygenation for 3 h. Subsequently, the cell survival rate was measured using CCK-8 reactant and RT-PCR was applied to monitor the expression of glycine receptor α1 subunit mRNA. RESULTS: Compared with the control group, no significant difference in the cell survival rate was observed (P>0.05). The expression of glycine receptor α1 subunit mRNA was increased (P<0.01) in lipopolysaccharide(5,10,20,40,80 mg/L),isoproterenol(20,100,500 μmol/L) or hypoxia/reoxygenation, hypoxia groups, but decreased(P<0.01)in the group treated with high concentration of glucose(25, 50 mmol/L). CONCLUSION: Lipopolysaccharide, isoproterenol, hypoxia/reoxygenation or hypoxia upregulates the expression of glycine receptor α1 subunit mRNA,but high concentration of glucose down-regulates the expression of glycine receptor α1 subunit mRNA in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes.  相似文献

AIM To investigate the regulatory effect of retinoic acid X receptor (RXR) on autophagy induced by hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) in rat alveolar type Ⅱ epithelial cells (AEC Ⅱ) and its molecular mechanism. METHODS AEC Ⅱ were cultured in normoxia. The cells growing to logarithmic growth phase were randomly divided into 5 groups: (1) control (Con) group: cells were cultured for 30 h under normal operation; (2) H/R group: cells were cultured in hypoxia condition for 6 h and then in reoxygenation condition for 24 h; (3) DMSO group: cells were pretreated 1.5 h with medium containing less than 0.1% DMSO before modeling, and the rest were treated the same as the H/R group; (4) 9-cis-retinoic acid (9-RA) group: cells were pretreated for 1 h with 9-RA (100 nmol/L) before hypoxia; (5) HX531 group: cells were treated with 9-RA (100 nmol/L) for 0.5 h, then treatment with HX531 (2.5 μmol/L) for 1 h. CCK-8 assay was used to detect the cell viability. Immunofluorescence staining was used to observe the expression of RXRα. Transmission electron microscope was used to observe the changes of intracellular ultrastructure, and the mRNA expression of adenosine AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), beclin 1, LC3, mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and P62 was detected by RT-PCR. Western blot was used to detected the protein levels of p-AMPK, beclin 1, LC3-Ⅱ, p-mTOR and P62. RESULTS Compared with Con group, the cell viability in H/R, DMSO, 9-RA and HX531 groups were significantly decreased. The mRNA expression of AMPK, beclin 1 and LC3 was significantly increased, and the protein levels of p-AMPK, beclin 1 and LC3-Ⅱ were also increased. The mRNA expression of mTOR and P62 was decreased, and the protein levels of p-mTOR and P62 were also decreased (P<0.05). The cell injury in 9-RA group was alleviated and autophagy level was significantly lower than that in H/R, DMSO and HX531 groups (P<0.05), and no significant difference among H/R, DMSO and HX531 groups was observed (P>0.05). CONCLUSION H/R induces autophagy of AEC Ⅱ. Activating RXR reduce the damage of AEC Ⅱ cells induced by H/R, and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of autophagy.  相似文献

AIM To investigate the protective effects of gabexate mesilate (GM) on blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability in rat model with cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). METHODS Adult male SD rats (n=180) were randomly divided into sham group, I/R group, nimodipine (NMP; 2 mg·kg-1·d-1) group and GM (5, 10 and 20 mg·kg-1·d-1) groups (n=30 in each group). The rat model of cerebral I/R was established by blocking the middle cerebral artery with thread plug for 2 h. Ten min before modeling, the drugs were given intraperitoneally. The nerve function was detected by Longa scoring method. The permeability of BBB was measured by Evans blue permeation method, and the brain water content was measured by dry-wet weight method. The activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), and the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in brain tissue were determined by biochemical analysis. The content of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-6 was measured by ELISA. The mRNA expression of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), MMP-9 and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) was detected by RT-PCR. The protein levels of MMP-2, MMP-9 and NF-κB were determined by Western blot. RESULTS Compared with I/R group, the Longa score, permeability of Evans blue and brain water content of the rats in GM (10 and 20 mg·kg-1·d-1) and NMP (2 mg·kg-1·d-1) groups were decreased. The activity of SOD and GSH-Px was increased, while the content of MDA was decreased. The content of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 was decreased, and the mRNA and protein expression levels of MMP-2, MMP-9 and NF-κB were significantly down-regulated. Compared with NMP (2 mg·kg-1·d-1) group, the Longa score and permeability of Evans blue were decreased in GM (20 mg·kg-1·d-1) group, the activity of SOD was increased, and the content of MDA and TNF-α was decreased. The mRNA and protein expression levels of MMP-2, MMP-9 and NF-κB were down-regulated. All of the differences were significant (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSION GM has protective effect on BBB in the rats with cerebral I/R. Its mechanism may be related to inhibition of oxidative stress and inflammation, and down-regulation of MMP-2, MMP-9 and NF-κB expression.  相似文献

AIM:To investigate the role and mechanism of microRNA-25 (miR-25) in apoptosis of H9c2 cells induced by hypoxia/reoxygenation. METHODS:The H9c2 cells with over-expression of miR-25 were treated with hypo-xia/reoxygenation. Real-time PCR was used to detect the expression of miR-25 and high mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) mRNA. Western blot was performed to examine the protein expression levels of HMGB1, Bcl-2 and cleaved caspase-3. Flow cytometry was used to analyze the proportion of apoptotic cells and the cell cycle. Dual-luciferase reporter assay was used to confirm that HMGB1 was the target gene of miR-25 in the H9c2 cells. Moreover, the H9c2 cells transfected with HMGB1-shRNA were subjected to hypoxia/reoxygenation to verify whether HMGB1 participated in the regulation of apoptosis of H9c2 cells. RESULTS:Over-expression of miR-25 significantly reduced the protein expression levels of HMGB1 and cleaved caspase-3, and increased the expression of Bcl-2 and the entrance into S phase in H9c2 cells induced by hypoxia/reoxygenation (P<0.01). The result of dual-luciferase reporter assay showed that compared with the control group, transfection with HMGB1-3' UTR-psi-CHECK2+miR-25 mimic strongly inhibited the luciferase activity (P<0.05). After the H9c2 cells transfected with HMGB1-shRNA was treated with hypoxia/reoxygenation, the expression of Bcl-2 was up-regulated, the expression of cleaved caspase-3 was down-regulated, and the cells in S phase were increased (P<0.05). CONCLUSION:miR-25 reduces apoptosis of H9c2 cells induced by hypoxia/reoxygenation, and its mechanism may be related with the inhibition of HMGB1 expression via interacting with its 3'-UTR.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the influence of programmed cell death 5 (PDCD5) on apoptosis and autophagy in the cardiomyocytes exposed to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) and its potential mechanism.METHODS: H9c2 cells were exposed to H/R. PDCD5 was downregulated by RNA interference. The cell viability was measured by MTT assay. TUNEL assay was used to detect cell apoptosis. The mRNA and protein levels were determined by RT-qPCR and Western blot.RESULTS: The expression of PDCD5 was upregulated in the cardiomyocytes after H/R injury. Furthermore, H/R injury obviously reduced the cell viability and enhanced the apoptosis and autophagy of the cardiomyocytes. However, knockdown of PDCD5 increased the cell viability, and attenuated H/R-induced apoptosis, accompany with reduction of Bax and augment of Bcl-2 expression. Additionally, silencing PDCD5 markedly inhibited H/R-induced autophagy by regulating the expression of LC3-II/LC3-I and beclin-1. Moreover, downregulation of PDCD5 suppressed NF-κB signaling by redu-cing the protein level of p-P65.CONCLUSION: Silencing PDCD5 suppresses H/R-induced H9c2 cells apoptosis and autophagy by blocking NF-κB signaling pathway. The result indicates a new strategy for the prevention and treatment of myocardial I/R injury.  相似文献

AIM To investigate the effect of fasudil on neonatal rats with periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) and its mechanism. METHODS Three-day-old neonatal rat PVL model was established by hypoxia and ischemia. The newborn SD rats (3-day-old, n=225) were randomly divided into 3 groups: sham group, PVL group and PVL+fasudil group. The rats in these 3 groups were further divided into 12 h, 24 h, 48 h,72 h and 30 d subgroups, with 15 neonatal rats each. The neonatal rats in the subgroups were rapidly decapitated and their brains were removed after treatment for 72 h. The pathological changes of brain tissues were observed by HE staining. The expression level of ROCK2 was assessed by RT-qPCR. The protein levels of ROCK2 and NF-κB P65 were analyzed by Western blot. Neurobehavior was observed after 30 d. RESULTS (1) Growth rates of body weight of the rats in PVL group and PVL+fasudil group were significantly lower than that in sham group after ischemia (P<0.05). (2) The results of HE staining showed significant pathological changes at 72 h in PVL group and PVL+fasudil group. But the pathological changes in PVL+fasudil group were relatively mild as compared with PVL group. (3) The expression of ROCK2 was significantly increased in PVL group compared with PVL+fasudil group and sham group (P<0.05). (4) The expression of NF-κB P65 was increased in PVL group compared with other groups at 24 h and 48 h(P<0.05). CONCLUSION Fasudil reduces the pathological damage of brain, and has a long-term neuroprotective effect, which improves neurological prognosis in neonatal rats with PVL by inhibiting ROCK pathway, reducing the activation of NF-κB P65 and attenuating inflammatory damage.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of growth arrest-specific protein 6(Gas 6) on H9c2 cell apoptosis induced by anoxia-reoxygenation (A/R) and its possible relationship with PI3K/Akt pathway. METHODS: Cultured H9c2 cell line of cardiomyocytes was randomly divided into 4 groups: normal control group, anoxia-reoxygenation group (A/R), anoxia-reoxygenation+Gas6 group (A/R+Gas6) and anoxia/reoxygenation+Gas6+LY294002 group (A/R+Gas6+LY294002). The procedure of A/R was performed in cultured H9c2 cells by 3 h of anoxia and then 3 h of reoxygenation. The viability of the cells and the activity of caspase-3 were detected by automatic biochemistry analytic instrument. Cell apoptotic rates were evaluated by flow cytometry. The protein level of phosphorylated Akt(p-Akt) was determined by Western blotting. RESULTS: Compared with control group, the cell viability was significantly decreased, and caspase-3 activity, cell apoptotic rate and the protein level of p-Akt were increased in A/R group. Compared with A/R group, the caspase-3 activity and cell apoptotic rate reduced markedly, while the cell viability and the protein level of p-Akt were significantly increased in A/R+Gas6 group .The effect of Gas6 was inhibited by LY294002. CONCLUSION: Gas6 may protect the H9c2 cells from anoxia-reoxygenation-induced apoptosis. Its mechanism is possibly involved in the activation of PI3K/Akt survival pathway via increasing the phosphorylation of Akt protein.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate whether hypoxic preconditioning (HPC) protects cardiomyoblast H9c2 cells against oxidative injury, and to discuss whether calreticulin (CRT) contribute to this protection through p38 MAPK signaling pathway. METHODS: Cardiomyoblast H9c2 cells were randomly divided into eight groups as follows: hydrogen peroxide stress (H2O2); brief hypoxic exposure of 20 min to simulate hypoxic preconditioning (HPC); 20 min of hypoxic exposure followed by 24 h of normoxic reoxygenation before hydrogen peroxide stress (HPC+H2O2), SB203580 (the specific inhibitors of p38 MAPK)+HPC+H2O2, antisense oligonucleotides transfection of calreticulin (AS), AS+H2O2, AS+HPC+H2O2 and control. Morphological studies, estimation of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) leakage and flow cytometry were employed to assess the cell apoptosis and necrosis. RT-PCR and Western blotting analysis was used to detect calreticulin expression and phosphorylation of p38 MAPK. RESULTS: The results obtained are as follows: (1) HPC relieved cell injury caused by H2O2. Compared with those in H2O2 group, apoptosis rate and LDH leakage in culture medium in HPC + H2O2 group decreased 13.4% and 44.0%, respectively (P<0.05), and cell survive rate increased 12.7% (P<0.05). SB203580, a selective p38 MAPK inhibitor presented before HPC, eliminated the cytoprotection of HPC. Compared with HPC+H2O2 group, apoptosis rate and LDH leakage increased 5.4% and 45.0%, respectively (P<0.05), and cell survive rate decreased 5.0%(P<0.05). (2) Brief hypoxia intimating HPC resulted in mild CRT up-regulation (1.4-fold increased vs control group, P<0.05), but this up-regulation was lower than that of 3.6-fold increase induced by oxidative stress. HPC relieved the over-expression of CRT induced by H2O2 (26% decreased vs H2O2 group, P<0.05). (3) Transfection of antisense oligonucleotides of CRT before HPC reduced cytoprotection against oxidative stress. Correlative analysis indicated that mild up-regulation of CRT induced by HPC was positively correlated with survive rate (r=0.8573, P<0.05). (4) SB203580 suppressed CRT up-regulation (the expression of CRT decreased 38% or 23%, vs HPC+H2O2 group or HPC group, respectively). CONCLUSION: These results suggest that hypoxic preconditioning up-regulates calreticulin expression through p38 MAPK signaling pathway and protects cardiomyoblast H9c2 cells against oxidative injury.  相似文献

AIM: To observe the effect of glycine liposomes on the mitochondrial membrane potential and the apoptosis rate in cardiomyocytes induced by hypoxia/reoxygenation injury. METHODS: A cardiomyocyte injury model was established by using hypoxia/reoxygenation. DiOC6(3) as fluorescence molecular probe was used to detect the mitochondrial membrane potential in each group. The method of Annexin V associated with PI was used to detect the apoptosis ratio in each group. RESULTS: (1) The result of flow cytometry showed that the mitochondrial membrane potential of cardiomyocytes in H/R group was obviously lower than that in control group (P<0.01). The decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential in Gly-liposome group was the lowest, the percentage of cells about the part of hypofluorescence was (9.61±0.76)%, which was lower than that in glycine group (P<0.01). (2) The apoptosis rate of cardiomyocytes in H/R group was higher than that in control group (20.78±1.58)%,P<0.01. After the treatment of Gly-liposome, the apoptosis rate of cardiomyocytes was lower than that in glycine group (P<0.01). No difference in the apoptosis ratios between blank-liposome group and H/R group was observed(P>0.05).CONCLUSION: Glycine liposomes protect cultured cardiomyocytes against hypoxia/reoxygenation injury. Glycine liposomes produce the better protective effects than glycine.  相似文献

AIM: Studying the mechanism of protective role of metallothionein(MT) in hypoxic preconditioning(HPC) of cultivated rat cardiomyocytes. METHODS:Using the model of hypoxia/reoxygenation of cultivated rat cardiomyocytes. Determining the contents of MT, malonyldialdehyde (MDA)-metabolism product of lipid peroxidation and the activities of Na+-K+ATPase, Ca2+-Mg2+ATPase of cardiomyocytes 24h after HPC, also determining the relevant changes after using MT antibody. RESULTS: After 24 h in HPC, the contents of MT and activities of Na+-K+ATPase, Ca2+-Mg2+ATPase were obviously higher than those in the control and hypoxia/reoxygenation(P<0.05), and the contents of MDA were decreased remarkedly (P<0.01). Then after using MT antibody, the activities of two enzyme were progressively decreased and the contents of MDA were significantly higher than those in the control and MT antibody-free groups(P<0.01). CONCLUSION: HPC may induce excessive synthesis of MT, and MT can protect myocardial reoxygenation injury by eliminating lipid peroxidation and rising the activities of Na+-K+ATPase and Ca2+-Mg2+ATPase.  相似文献

AIM: To examine the effects of L-carnitine on apoptosis and oxidant injury in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes induced by hypoxia/reoxygenation and its possible mechanism. METHODS: The cultured cardiomyocytes were divided into three groups, control, A/R group (anoxia for 120 min, reoxygenation for 240 min) and L-carnitine treatment group, in which cells were exposed to 20 mg/L, 50 mg/L, 100 mg/L, 200 mg/L L-carnitine respectively at 2 h before anoxia. The superoxide dismutase (SOD), succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) activities and malondialdehyde (MDA) content were examined, and the apoptosis was determined by flow of cytometry (FCM). In addition, the ultrastructure was observed by transmission electron microscopy. RESULTS: In A/R group, SOD and SDH activities were lower, the apoptosis rate and MDA content were higher than those in control group (P<0.05). In L-carnitine treatment group, SOD and SDH activities were higher, the apoptosis rate and MDA content were lower than those in A/R group, a L-carnitine concentration-dependent effect was found. Moreover, impairment of myocardial ultrastructure was more severe in A/R group than L-carnitine treatment group. CONCLUSION: L-carnitine can protect cardiomyocytes against hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced injury in a dose-dependent manner.  相似文献

AIM: To study the role of hypoxia preconditioning (HP) in hypoxia-reoxygenation (HR)-induced apoptosis in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes and the possible mechanisms. METHODS: Cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were divided into three groups: normal group, HP+H/R group and H/R group. Acridine orange (AO) staining was performed to detect morphological changes of apoptotic cells. Apoptosis rates of cardiomyocytes were detected by flow cytometry. Colorimetric assay was used to detect caspase-3 activity. Expression of Bcl-2 protein was detected by immunohistochemistry combined with computer image analysis. RESULTS: Apoptotic cells were detected by AO staining after hypoxia of 6 h followed by 3 h-reoxygenation. The hypodiploid apoptotic peak was detected by flow cytometry with the apoptotic rates of (29.7±5.4)%. A significantly reduced apoptotic rates of (7.8±1.3)% was detected in HP group(P<0.01). The caspase-3 relative activity of cardiomyocytes induced by H/R was 5.9±0.8, significantly higher than that of control group. HP markedly reduced caspase-3 relative activity to 2.6±0.5 in contrast with H/R group (P<0.01). Bcl-2 protein was positive in normal cardiomyocytes with an A value of 119.4±7.1. The A value of H/R group was 99.6±5.0, significantly lower than that in normal group (P<0.01). The A value of HP+H/R group was 126.5±6.2, significantly higher than that in H/R group(P<0.01). CONCLUSION: HP inhibits H/R-induced apoptosis of cardiomyocytes by improving the expression of Bcl-2 and reducing caspase-3 activity.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase Ⅱ (CaMKⅡ) on hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury in H9c2 cells. METHODS: H9c2 cells were randomized into 4 groups:control group, KN-93 (an inhibitor of CaMKⅡ; 1 μmol/L) treatment group, H/R group and H/R+KN-93 (1 μmol/L) treatment group. The cells in KN-93 group and KN-93+H/R group were pretreated with KN-93 for 2 h before the other treatment was performed. The viability of H9c2 cells in each group was measured by CCK-8 assay. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity in the culture medium was detected. The protein levels of phosphorylated CaMKⅡ (p-CaMKⅡ), phosphorylated phospholamban (p-PLN) and cleaved caspase-3 were determined by Western blot. The apoptosis was analyzed by TUNEL staining and the flow cytometry. RESULTS: No significant difference of all indexes tested between control group and KN-93 group was observed. H/R treatment significantly reduced the cell viability, and increased the activity of LDH (P<0.01), the protein levels of p-CaMKⅡ, p-PLN and cleaved caspase-3 (P<0.05), and the apoptotic rate (P<0.01). KN-93 (1 μmol/L) significantly increased the cell viability, and decreased the activity of LDH (P<0.01), the protein levels of p-CaMKⅡ, p-PLN and cleaved caspase-3 (P<0.05), and the apoptotic rate (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: CaMKⅡ aggravates hypoxia/reoxygenation injury in the H9c2 cells by activating apoptosis.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) over-expression on the apoptosis and the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in high glucose-induced H9c2 cardiomyocytes. METHODS: H9c2 cardiomyocytes were transfected with empty plasmid (pcDNA3.1-NC) and SIRT1 over-expression plasmid (pcDNA3.1-SIRT1), and then stimulated by high glucose. The H9c2 cells were divided into control group, high glucose group, high glucose + pcDNA3.1-NC group and high glucose + pcDNA3.1-SIRT1 group. The expression of SIRT1 at mRNA and protein levels in each group was determined by qPCR and Western blot. The viability of the cells was measured by MTT assay. The apoptotic rate was analyzed by flow cytometry. The protein levels of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), phosphorylated PI3K, AKT and phosphorylated AKT were examined by Western blot. RESULTS: SIRT1 was significantly decreased in high glucose-induced H9c2 cardiomyocytes, the cell viability was significantly decreased compared with control group, while the ROS levels and apoptotic rate were increased, and the phosphorylated PI3K and AKT protein levels were down-regulated (P<0.05). Over-expression of SIRT1 significantly promoted the viability of H9c2 cardiomyocytes induced by high glucose, decreased the ROS levels and apoptotic rate, and up-regulated phosphorylated PI3K and AKT protein levels (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: SIRT1 over-expression reverses the decrease in the viability of high glucose-stimulated H9c2 cardiomyocytes, and the increases in apoptotic rate and oxidative stress by regulating PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of microRNA-323 (miR-323) on the apoptosis of hypoxia-induced rat H9C2 cardiomyocytes and its mechanism. METHODS: The hypoxic injury model was established in the H9C2 cells. Anti-miR-323, pcDNA-FGF9 and si-FGF9 were transfected into the H9C2 cells and cultured under hypoxic condition for 48 h. The expression of miR-323 was detected by qPCR. The protein levels of fibroblast growth factor 9 (FGF9), cleaved caspase-3, c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and p-JNK were determined by Western blot. The cell viability was measured by MTT assay, and the apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. The method of bioinformatics was applied to predict the target gene of miR-323, and dual-luciferase reporter assay was used for further validation. RESULTS: Hypoxia greatly reduced the viability of H9C2 cells at 12 h, 24 h and 48 h (P<0.05), and remarkably increased apoptotic rate and the protein level of cleaved caspase-3 in a time-dependent manner (P<0.05). The expression of miR-323 and the protein level of p-JNK were up-regulated and the expression of FGF9 was down-regulated in the H9C2 cells exposed to hypoxia (P<0.05). Down-regulation of miR-323 and over-expression of FGF9 obviously increased the viability of the H9C2 cells exposed to hypoxia, and decreased the apoptotic rate and the protein level of cleaved caspase-3 (P<0.05). FGF9 was the target gene of miR-323. Down-regulation of FGF9 reversed the attenuating effect of down-regulation of miR-323 on hypoxia-induced H9C2 cell injury. miR-323 regulated FGF9 and affected p-JNK level. CONCLUSION: miR-323 affects the viability and apoptosis of H9C2 cardiomyocytes under hypoxia by targeting FGF9 and regulating JNK signaling pathway.  相似文献

AIM: To explore the potential mechanism of microRNA-30a (miR-30a) overexpression in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes during hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R). METHODS: The miR-30a overexpression was induced in primary neonatal rat cardiomyocytes by lentivirus transfection. The cardiomyocytes were divided into 5 groups: normal group, H/R group, LV-GFP+H/R group, LV-GFP-miR-30a+H/R group and 3-methyladenine(3-MA)+H/R group. The expression level of miR-30a after lentivirus transfection and H/R was determined by real-time PCR, while the protein levels of LC3 and Beclin-1 after H/R and lentivirus transfection were detected by Western blotting. The cardiomyocyte death after H/R were measured by TUNEL and PI staining. RESULTS: Compared with LV-GFP group, significant down-regulation of Beclin-1 protein level was observed in cardiomyocytes with miR-30a overexpression, while the protein levels of Beclin-1 and LC3 in the cardiomyocytes with miR-30a overexpression were down-regulated after H/R, and apoptosis of these cells were significantly decreased after H/R. CONCLUSION: The protein level of Beclin-1 is down-regulated in cardiomyocytes with miR-30a overexpression. Inhibition of autophagy decreases the cardiomyocyte death after H/R.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of polysaccharide from Fructus corni(PFC) on cardiomyocytes against hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury and its possible relationship with ROS/PKC/p38 MAPK pathway.METHODS: Primary cardiomyocytes were isolated from neonatal SD rats and randomly divided into normal group, H/R group, PFC (20 mg/L, 100 mg/L and 200 mg/L) preconditioning+H/R groups, chelerythrine+PFC (100 mg/L)+H/R group and SB203580+PFC (100 mg/L)+H/R group. The cell viability was measured by inverted microscopic observation. Apoptosis in the cardiomyocytes was detected by Hoechst 33258 staining and fluorescence microscopy. The levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the cell culture supernatants, and the reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the cells were also measured by microplate reader. The protein levels of PKC, p-p38 MAPK and HSP70 in the cells were detected by Western blotting.RESULTS: Compared with normal group, the cell viability and beating frequency were decreased in H/R group. LDH and ROS contents, apoptotic rate and p-p38 MAPK level increased significantly (P<0.01). Compared with H/R group, PFC preconditioning increased beating frequency, SOD activity and the protein level of PKC and HSP70, and decreased ROS production, the protein level of p-p38 MAPK and cell apoptotic rate. However, the effect of PFC was inhibited by chelerythrine or SB203580.CONCLUSION: PFC may protect cardiomyocytes from hypoxia/reoxygenation injury. Its mechanism is possibly involved in the inhibition of ROS via increasing the activity of SOD and the activation of PKC, and suppression of excessive activation of p38 MAPK.  相似文献

AIM To observe the effect of Fuzilizhong decoction on the inflammatory damage of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) rats and to explore its mechanism. METHODS SPF male SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups: control group, model group, high dose (20 mg·kg-1·d-1), middle dose (10 mg·kg-1·d-1), low dose (5 mg·kg-1·d-1) Fuzilizhong decoction group and Yishanfu (30 mg·kg-1·d-1)group, 8 rats in each group. A NAFLD rat modelwas established by intragastric administration of fat emulsion for 4 weeks. Then the drug was given for 4 weeks in each treatment group. HE staining was performed to observe the histopathological changes of the rat liver.The serum levels of interleukin-2(IL-2), IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) were measured by ELISA. The expression of toll like receptor 4(TLR4) and NF-κB p65 in liver tissues at mRNA and protein levels was determined by RT-qPCR and Western bolt,respectively. RESULTS Compared with control group, the inflammatory damage of liver tissue was more serious, the serum levels of IL-2, IL-6 and TNF-α, the mRNA expression TLR4 and NF-κB p65 in liver tissues were significantly increased in model group(P<0.05). However, compared with model group, the liver pathological changes in each treatment group were significantly relieved, the serum levels of IL-2, IL-6 and TNF-α, the mRNA expression of TLR4 and NF-κB p65 in liver tissues were significantly reduced(P<0.05).In addition, the changes of TLR4 and p-NF-κB p65 protein levels in liver tissue were consistent with the changes of TLR4 and NF-κB p65 mRNA. CONCLUSION Fuzilizhong decoction attenuates the inflammatory damages of NAFLD in rats by inhibiting TLR4/NF-κB p65 signaling pathway.  相似文献
