AIM: To investigate the protective effects of puerarin (PUE) pretreatment on hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), as well as its possible mechanism and the signal transduction pathways involved. METHODS: HUVECs were randomly divided into normal control group, H/R group, PUE pretreatment group and PUE+H/R group (1.0×10-3 mol/L, PUE pretreated the cells for 24 h before H/R). The protein expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) was measured by Western blot. The activity of constitutive NOS (cNOS) was determined via chemical colorimetric methods. Apoptosis of HUVECs was detected by TUNEL assay. In addition, the cells were treated with ERK inhibitor U0126 (1.0×10-5 mol/L) or PKB/Akt inhibitor LY294002 (5.0×10-5 mol/L) for 1 h before PUE pretreatment, and then H/R was performed.RESULTS: Compared with control group, H/R decreased the protein expression of eNOS (P<0.05), and PUE pretreatment up-regulated it (P<0.05). This effect of PUE was inhibited by U0126 or LY294002 (P<0.05). Compared with control group, the activity of cNOS decreased in H/R group (P<0.05), while it increased after PUE pretreatment (P<0.05). Compared with control group, the apoptotic index significantly increased in H/R group (P<0.01). PUE pretreatment reduced the apoptotic index (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: H/R decreases the protein expression and enzyme activity of eNOS in HUVECs, and induces apoptosis of HUVECs. PUE pretreatment up-regulates the protein expression and enzyme activity of eNOS, and reduces the apoptosis of HUVECs with H/R injury. The protective effect of PUE might be through increasing eNOS protein expression via ERK1/2 and PKB/Akt signaling pathways. 相似文献

AIM: We hypothesized that PPARγ ligands stimulate endothelial-derived nitric oxide (NO) release to protect the vascular wall. Thus, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of ciglitazone (Cig) and fenofibrate (Fen) on angiotensin Ⅱ (AngⅡ)-induced decrease in endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) expression and NO production in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). METHODS: HUVECs were preincubated for 24 h with Cig (10-7, 10-6, 10-5, 10-4 mol/L) or Fen (10-5 and 10-4 mol/L), then incubated for 12 h with 10-7 mol/L AngⅡ. Total RNA was extracted, and the expression of mRNA and protein of eNOS was assessed by RT-PCR and Western blotting. NO production was measured by Griees method. RESULTS: In the presence of 10-7 mol/L AngⅡ for 12 h, NO production in cultured HUVECs was decreased (P<0.01). Cig and Fen pretreatments enhanced NO production (P<0.01) and antagonized Ang-induced decrease in eNOS mRNA and protein levels in HUVECs. CONCLUSION: PPARγ activator, ciglitazone, and PPARα activator, fenofibrate, antagonize Ang-induced decrease in endothelial NO production by directly upregulating eNOS expression. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) on protein and mRNA expression of macrophage inflammatory protein-1α (MIP-1α) in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs). METHODS: HUVECs were cultured with AGEs at different concentrations for 24 h and at a concentration of 400 mg/L for different time.The levels of mRNA and protein expression of MIP-1α in cultured HUVEC were detected by in situ hybridization and Western blot, respectively. RESULTS: In situ hybridization showed that after exposure of HUVECs to AGEs at different concentrations (100 mg/L, 200 mg/L, 400 mg/L) for 24 h, the average integrated optical density values (18.76±3.17, 26.58±1.61, 34.23±2.25) of MIP-1α mRNA expression in HUVECs were higher than that in control group (13.83±1.24, P0.05). After exposure of HUVECs to AGEs at a concentration of 400 mg/L for 12 h, 24 h and 36 h, the average integrated optical density values of MIP-1α mRNA expression in HUVECs were 22.67±1.46, 34.23±2.25 and 42.28±3.14, higher than that in 0 h group (12.56±1.24, P0.05). Western Blot showed that exposure of HUVECs to AGEs at different concentrations(100 mg/L, 200 mg/L, 400 mg/L) for 24 h resulted in a 1.34-fold, 1.87-fold and 2.46-fold increase in the expression of MIP-1α protein in HUVECs compared with BSA control group (P<0.05). Meanwhile, exposure of HUVECs to AGEs at a concentration of 400 mg/L for 12 h, 24 h and 36 h resulted in a 1.82-fold, 2.71-fold and 3.34-fold increase in MIP-1α protein expression in HUVECs compared with 0 h group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION:These data suggest that AGEs could induce a high expression of MIP-1αmRNA and protein in cultured HUVECs in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of histamine and hypoxia on the expression of eNOS mRNA and protein in cultured porcine pulmonary artery and aorta endothelial cells. METHODS: Semi-quantitative RT-PCR and immuno-cytochemistry were used. RESULTS: (1) Histamine increased eNOS mRNA expression in a dose-and time dependent manner. For pulmonary endothelial cells, the effect reached peak when exposed to 10-5 mol/L histamine in 24 h. eNOS mRNA level was increased to 178.2%±7.7% (P<0.01) compared with control. eNOS protein was also enhanced to 173%±47% (P<0.01) compared with control. For aorta endothelial cells, the effect reach peak when exposed to 10-6 mol/L histamine in 24 h. The eNOS mRNA level was increased to 177.4%±14.3% (P<0.01) compared with control. The eNOS protein was also enhanced to 165%±54% (P<0.01). (2) The eNOS mRNA was enhanced in pulmonary endothelial cells after exposed to hypoxia for 12 h and reached peak in 24 h, increasing to 151.0%±9.1% (P<0.01). The protein expression was also enhanced to 216%±44% (P<0.01) compared with control. But there was no significant change in eNOS mRNA and protein expression in aorta endothelial cells during hypoxia. CONCLUSION: The experiments show that histamine increases the endothelial eNOS expression in both pulmonary and aorta endothelial cells, whereas hypoxia only increases eNOS expression in pulmonary endothelial cells. This may account partly for the different responses of pulmonary circulation and systemic circulation to hypoxia. 相似文献

AIM：To investigate the mechanism of Sini decoction in treating human vascular endothelial cell injury and the roles of caveolin-1 and nitric oxide (NO) system in this procedure. METHODS：Model of human umbilical vein endothelial EAhy926 cells injured by homocysteine (Hcy) was established. The protective effect of Sini decoction on the injured EAhy926 cells was observed, and the expression of caveolin-1 and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and Western blotting. RESULTS：Compared with control group, the Hcy-treated EAhy926 cells showed reduced adherent cell number and NO concentration in culture supernatant, decreased expression of eNOS mRNA and protein, and increased expression of caveolin-1 mRNA and protein (all P<0.05). Compared with Hcy group, better growth of adherent cells, elevated NO concentration in culture supernatant, attenuated expression of caveolin-1 mRNA and protein, and enhanced expression of eNOS mRNA and protein in Sini decoction groups were observed (all P<0.05). CONCLUSION：Homocysteine may injure EAhy926 cells by enhancing the expression of caveolin-1 and suppressing the expression of eNOS, while Sini decoction may protect EAhy926 cells by suppressing the expression of caveolin-1 and enhancing the expression of eNOS. 相似文献

AIM: We hypothesize that peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α(PPARα) agonists act directly on nitric oxide (NO) production in vascular endothelium. Thus, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of fenofibrate on endothelial NO synthase(eNOS) activity and its expression in cultured vascular endothelial cells. METHODS: Bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAECs) were treated with the PPARα activator fenofibrate. The eNOS activity and the expression of eNOS protein and its mRNA were determined. RESULTS: Our data show that fenofibrate increased eNOS activity in a dose-and time-dependent manner. At the concentration of 10 μmol/L or more, fenofibrate treatment caused a significant increase in eNOS activity. The maximal increase in eNOS activity(2.32±0.47 fold of the control) was observed with 50 μmol/L fenofibrate treatment for 48 h. Fenofibrate failed to increase eNOS activity at 1 and 12 h. RT-PCR analysis demonstrated that eNOS mRNA relative to β-actin mRNA significantly increased at concentrations of 5 μmol/L or more. It reached 2.08±0.33 fold of the control with 50 μmol/L fenofibrate. Significant increase in eNOS mRNA levels was observed after 6 h, and lasted for 48 h. The peak increase in eNOS mRNA levels(2.13±0.30 fold of the control,P<0.01) was observed with 50 μmol/L fenofibrate treatment for 12 h. Longer incubation of cells with 50 μmol/L fenofibrate caused no further increase. The treatment of BAECs with fenofibrate for 48 h demonstrated a concentration-dependent increase in eNOS protein levels as measured by Western blot analysis. Densitometric analysis indicated that there was a significant increase in eNOS to β-actin ratios after fenofibrate treatment at concentrations of 10,50 and 100 μmol/L(1.80±0.45, 2.70±0.42 and 2.20±0.32 fold of the control, respectively, P<0.01). The significant increase in eNOS protein levels was observed 12 h after treatment and lasted for 48 h. CONCLUSION: PPARα activator fenofibrate, enhances endothelial NO production by directly upregulating eNOS expression and activity. 相似文献

AIM: To determine whether laminar shear stress regulates nitric oxide (NO) production in vascular endothelial cells through Pim1/endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) signaling pathway. METHODS: Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were exposed to laminar shear stress using a parallel-plate flow system. NO production is evaluated by NO assay kit. Pim1 protein expression and eNOS phosphorylation were determined by Western blot. A specific small interfering RNA was used to knock down Pim1 gene expression, and then the changes of above indicators were detected. RESULTS: After 15-min exposure of HUVECs to laminar shear stress (15 dyn/cm2), rapid increases in Pim1 protein expression and NO production were observed (P < 0.05). Shear stress also caused time-dependent stimulation of eNOS phosphorylation (P < 0.05). The shear-induced Pim1 expression and NO production were abrogated in the HUVECs transfected with siPim1 (P < 0.05). Pim1 silencing also prevented shear-induced rise of eNOS-Ser1177 phosphorylation (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Pim1 may account for shear-induced NO production in endothelial cells due to phosphorylation activation of eNOS. 相似文献

AIM: To observe the direct effect of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on secretion of endothelin-1 (ET-1) and nitric oxide by human umbilical vein endothelial cell and cell viability of the secretor. METHODS: The third passage of human umbilical vein endothelial cells were incubated with different concentrations of LPS (1 g/L, 100 mg/L, 10 mg/L, 1 mg/L, 100 μg/L, 10 μg/L, 1 μg/L) for 6 hours, and the culture supernatants were collected. The concentrations of ET-1 were determined by radioimmunoassay, the concentrations of nitric oxide were determined using Greiss's method. The viabilities of cells were measured by MTT method. RESULTS: The concentration of ET-1 (pg/L) of normal control group was 251.64±10.90. The concentrations of ET-1 (pg/L) of LPS treated groups were 220.85±19.14, 278.67±15.45, 306.40±11.60, 312.87±33.50, 324.38±17.02, 291.49±14.30, 282.11±13.38, respectively (each group compared with normal control group, P<0.05 or P<0.01). The concentration of NOx (μmol/L) of normal control group was 629.46±13.36. The concentrations of NOx (μmol/L) of LPS treated groups were 732.58±23.21, 669.87±9.32, 661.24±16.80, 650.33±13.24, 606.59±12.94, 626.75±9.83, 627.61±5.61, respectively (each group compared with normal control group, P<0.05 or P<0.01). The viabilities of endothelial cells of LPS treated groups were 74%, 81%, 86%, 88%,91%, 93%, 93%, respectively. CONCLUSION: LPS of lower concentrations had no significantly lethal effect on human umbilical vein endothelial cells, but enhanced secretion of ET-1 and inhibited NO production. LPS in higher concentrations showed significant lethal effect on human umbilical vein endothelial cells, inhibited secretion of ET-1 and enhanced NO production. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of simvastatin on cigarette smoke extract (CSE)-induced expression levels of soluble endothelial cell protein C receptor (sEPCR) and membrane-associated endothelial cell protein C receptor (mEPCR ) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). METHODS: Cultured HUVECs at passage 4 to 6 were randomly divided into control group, 5% CSE group, simvastatin groups and simvastatin+CSE groups. In simvastatin groups, HUVECs were incubated with simvastatin at the concentrations of 50, 100 and 200 μmol/L for 24 h. In simvastatin+CSE groups, the cells were treated with simvastatin at the concentrations of 50, 100 and 200 μmol/L for 2 h, and then exposed to CSE for 24 h. The protein level of sEPCR in the culture supernatants was measured by ELISA. The cells were collected for determining the mRNA expression of mEPCR by real-time PCR. RESULTS: Compared with control group, the protein level of sEPCR was significantly increased, and the mRNA expression of mEPCR was significantly decreased in 5% CSE group (both P<0.05). The protein levels of sEPCR were significantly increased, and the mRNA expression of mEPCR was significantly decreased in 100 μmol/L and 200 μmol/L simvastatin groups. However, the protein levels of sEPCR were lower, and the mRNA expression of mEPCR was significantly higher in 100 μmol/L and 200 μmol/L simvastatin groups than those in 5% CSE group. Compared with 5% CSE group, the protein levels of sEPCR in simvastatin+CSE groups were significantly decreased, but higher than those in control group and simvastatin group with corresponding concentration. On the contrary, the mRNA expression of mEPCR in simvastatin+CSE groups was significantly increased, but lower than that in control group and simvastatin group with corresponding concentration (all P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Simvastatin obviously increases the mRNA expression of mEPCR, decreases the protein level of sEPCR, and attenuates the CSE-induced endothelial injury in vitro . 相似文献

AIM：To study the effect of CD151 on the biological characteristics of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs). METHODS：CD151 expression on hUC-MSCs was interfered by siRNA. The cells were divided into siRNA-CD151 group and negative control group (treated with siRNA-NC). The efficiency of interference after 72 h and the changes of other surface markers were detected by flow cytometry. The ability of differentiation was assessed by oil red O and von Kossa staining. The cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry. The mRNA expression of CD151, hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1), cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) and indoleamine 2, 3-dioxygenase (IDO) in hUC-MSCs was detected by real-time PCR. The secretion of HGF by hUC-MSCs was measured by ELISA. RESULTS：The results of flow cytometry showed that the expression of CD151 (11.97±2.63 vs 95.66±1.56, P<0.01) and CD105 (93.66±0.21 vs 83.37±0.71, P<0.05) on hUC-MSCs in siRNA-CD151 group was lower than that in negative control group. The consistent results were also achieved by using the method of real-time PCR. Treatment with siRNA-CD151 down-regulated the progress of the cell cycle as the G1 phase increased and the S phase decreased. The mRNA expression levels of HGF and TGF-β1 in hUC-MSCs in siRNA-CD151 group were lower than those in negative control group, and opposite result of COX-2 mRNA expression was observed. The IDO mRNA in hUC-MSCs was unchanged with IFN-γ stimulation for 24 h. HGF concentration in siRNA-CD151 group was decreased as compared with negative control group. CONCLUSION：Interfering CD151 expression on hUC-MSCs doesn’t change other surface markers except CD105, and maintains the capacity of adipogenic differentiation. However, it changes the osteogenic differentiation, proliferation and the expression of immunomodulatory cytokines. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of folic acid and vitamin B12 on homocysteine (Hcy)-induced apoptosis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) through mammalian sterile 20-like kinase 1 (MST1). ME-THODS: HUVECs were cultured in the absence (control group), or presence of 100 μmol/L Hcy alone (Hcy group) or 100 μmol/L Hcy plus 30 μmol/L folic acid and vitamin B12 (intervention group) for 72 h. The effect of Hcy on the apoptosis of HUVECs was analyzed by flow cytometry. The transfection efficiency of DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1)-overexpressing adenovirus was observed under fluorescence inverted microscope. The mRNA and the protein levels of DNMT1 and MST1 were determined by RT-qPCR and Western blot. The DNA methylation level of MST1 promoter was detected by methylation-specific PCR. RESULTS: Compared with control group, the apoptotic rate (P<0.01) and the expression of MST1 at mRNA (P<0.01) and protein (P<0.05) levels in the HUVECs were significantly increased, while the mRNA levels of DNMT1 was decreased in Hcy group (P<0.01). In addition, folic acid and vitamin B12 treatment significantly inhibited Hcy-mediated apoptosis of HUVECs (P<0.01), increase in MST1 mRNA level (P<0.01) and decrease in DNMT1 mRNA level (P<0.01). Meantime, the mRNA level of MST1 was positively correlated with the apoptotic rate of the HUVECs (r=0.943 9, P<0.001). The expression of DNMT1 at mRNA and protein levels was significantly increased after the transfection of DNMT1-overexpressing adenovirus into HUVECs (P<0.01), and a large amount of green fluorescent protein expression was observed. Meanwhile, the DNA methylation level of MST1 promoter was increased (P<0.01), while the protein level of MST1 was decreased (P<0.01).CONCLUSION: Up-regulation of MST1 promotes Hcy-induced apoptosis of HUVECs, while folic acid and vitamin B12 exert an anti-apoptosis effect, which might be regulated by hypermethylation of MST1 promoter region. 相似文献

AIM: To observe the effects of adiponectin(APN) on the expression of connexin 43 (Cx43) in rat myocardium during ischemia-induced arrhythmias. METHODS: The SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=12): sham operation group (SM group), ischemia and reperfusion group (I/R group), I/R+adiponectin(APN1) group: pre-ischemia with 3.5 μg/kg of APN; I/R+APN2 group: post-ischemia with 3.5 μg/kg of APN. The incidence of ventricular arrhythmias and ventricular arrhythmia score (VAS) were determined. The expression of Cx43 in the ischemic myocardium was studied by the techniques of immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR. The levels of malondialdehyde(MDA) and superoxide dismutase(SOD) were measured by the methods of xanthine oxidase and thiobarbituric acid. The expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) at mRNA and protein levels was determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting,respectively.The morphological changes of the myocardial tissues were observed under electronic microscope. RESULTS: The VAS and concentration of MDA increased obviously and the activity of SOD was decreased in I/R group as compared with SM group (P<0.01). The expression of Cx43 was evidently decreased and the distribution of Cx43 in the myocardium was disturbed. The expression of eNOS at mRNA and protein levels was decreased in I/R group (P<0.05). The ultrastructure of ventricular myocardium was abnormal in I/R group. Compared with I/R group, APN obviously decreased the VAS caused by ischemia and reperfusion (P<0.01) no matter the drug was given before or after ischemia. APN increased the activity of SOD, inhibited the MDA content in serum, and resulted in normal distribution of Cx43 and increased the expression of Cx43 and eNOS. Compared with I/R group, the changes of heart ultrastructure attenuated greatly in APN group, but didn't recover to normal state. CONCLUSION: Adiponectin antagonizes the arrhythmias during myocardial ischemia and reperfusion via inhibiting oxidative stress and regulating Cx43. 相似文献

AIM:To study the effects of Scutellaria barbata flavonoids (SBF) on abnormal expression of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), heat-shock protein 70 (HSP70) and apolipoprotein E (apoE) induced by Aβ 25-35 in rat astrocytes. METHODS:The third generation of cultured rat astrocytes was divided into 5 groups. The cells in 3 drug treatment groups were given SBF at dose of 17.5 mg/L, 35 mg/L and 70 mg/L for 24 h, and then the cells in model group and 3 doses of SBF groups were exposed to Aβ 25-35 at concentration of 100 μmol/L for 24 h. The expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) in the cultured cells was assayed by immunohistochemical method. The expression of HSP70 was estimated by Western blotting and the mRNA expression of apoE was assessed by RT-PCR. RESULTS:Compared with control group, the protein level of eNOS were significantly decreased and the protein level of iNOS increased (P<0.01) in model group. The protein expression of HSP70 and mRNA expression of apoE were notably increased (P<0.01) in model group. However, these disturbances were attenuated by SBF at dose of 17.5, 35 and 70 mg/L (P<0.01). CONCLUSION:SBF has an obvious protective effect on damaged astrocytes induced by Aβ 25-35, suggesting that SBF may be helpful for the treatment of Alzheimer disease. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) on mesangial cells proliferation and nitric oxide synthesis. METHODS: Glomerular mesangial cells from SD rats were cultured. The first and second passages of cultured cells were used for the experiment. LPS and LPS plus IL-1ra were added in cell cultures, respectively. By using chemical method the nitrite in supernatants was measured, [3H]-TdR incorporation was determined to evaluate the GMC proliferation. Northern and slot hybridizations were performed to detect the expression of iNOS mRNA. RESULTS: There were expression of iNOS mRNA, more production of nitrite (0.64±0.25 vs 0.12±0.06 nmol/104 cell) in supernatants and GMC proliferation (3735±1177.9 vs 1785±280.6) in LPS group compared to the control. While compared with LPS group, in LPS+IL-1ra GMC group, expression of iNOS mRNA decreased by 40%, nitrite increased (3.28±0.33nmol/104 cell), proliferation of GMC decreased (818±77.27). CONCLUSION: LPS could activate the GMC to express iNOS mRNA and produce more nitrite. IL-1ra could partially inhibit the effects of LPS on the expression of iNOS mRNA in GMC, but not nitrite. There is no synchronous correlation between NO production and GMC proliferation. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of oxidized LDL (ox-LDL) on the expression of gap junction protein connexin43 in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) in vitro. METHODS: Human umbilical vein endothelial cells cultured in normal condition were divided into blank control group, 50 mg/L,100 mg/L and 200 mg/L ox-LDL intervention groups. The mRNA expression of connexin43 in cultured HUVECs was detected with RT-PCR method; while the protein level of connexin43 was determined by the method of immunocytochemistry in the control and 100 mg/L ox-LDL intervention groups 24 h after ox-LDL was given. RESULTS: Different concentrations (50 mg/L, 100 mg/L, 200 mg/L) of ox-LDL up-regulated mRNA expression of connexin43 in cultured HUVECs after 24 h intervention (P<0.01). The protein level of connexin43 in cultured HUVECs intervened with 100 mg/L Ox-LDL for 24 h was up-regulated as compared to the control cells (P<0.01).CONCLUSION: Ox-LDL may up-regulate the expression of connexin43 at mRNA and protein levels in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells within short time, indicating that connexin43 plays an important role in the pro-atherosclerotic effect of Ox-LDL. 相似文献

AIM：To investigate the effect of Golgi phosphoprotein 3 (GOLPH3) gene silencing on the proliferation, invasion and metastasis of human gastric cancer SGC-7901 cell in vitro. METHODS：SGC-7901 cells were transfected with lentiviral vector carrying GOLPH3 shRNA to construct a stable GOLPH3-silencing cell line LV-GOLPH3-RNAi. The expression of GOLPH3 at mRNA and protein levelss were detected by real-time PCR and Western blotting, respectively. The cell proliferation was analyzed by MTT assay. Transwell migration and invasion experiments were performed to measure the migration and invasion abilities, respectively. RESULTS：The stable GOLPH3-silencing cell line was successfully established. The expression of GOLPH3 at mRNA and protein levels was reduced significantly (P<0.05), leading to the inhibition of cell proliferation in LV-GOLPH3-RNAi group compared with scrambled group and blank control group, as well as the capacities of migration (56.7±1.5 vs 186.0±3.4 and 183.3±4.2, P<0.05) and invasion (33.5±3.0 vs 85.0±3.9 and 83.1±4.4, P<0.05). CONCLUSION：GOLPH3 silencing suppresses the capacities of proliferation, migration and invasion of human gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells, suggesting that GOLPH3 may be a potential tumor marker and independent prognostic factor. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the protective effect of naringin (Nar) on the injury of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) induced by 33 mmol/L high glucose (HG) and to explore its possible mechanisms.METHODS: The injury model was established by treating HUVECs with HG medium for the indicated time (6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 h), and then the levels of NO, eNOS and p-eNOS were detected, respectively. The effects of Nar on high glucose-induced endothelial cell injury were observed. HUVECs were treated with Nar at concentrations of 5, 10, 25, 50 and 100 mg/L for 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 36 h and 48 h. The levels of NO in the supernatants were measured. The effects of Nar on HG-injured HUVECs were explored by treating the cells with 10 μmol/L of LY294002, a PI3K inhibitor, or 0.5 μmol/L of AKT inhibitor Ⅳ, an AKT inhibitor, and then the levels of NO, PI3K, AKT, eNOS and their phosphorylated proteins were determined by Western blot.RESULTS: Nar at concentration of 50 mg/L significantly attenuated the injury of endothelial cells induced by high glucose (P<0.01), and the protective effects of Nar were abolished by pretreating with the inhibitor of PI3K or AKT (P<0.01).CONCLUSION: Nar protects endothelial cells against the injury induced by high glucose through PI3K/AKT/eNOS pathway. 相似文献

AIM: To explore the feasibility of human iNOS transfected into V79 cells by gene transfer and investigate the effects of H4B on iNOS activity. METHODS: Human iNOS was transfected into V79 cells with the karyocyte expressive vector. The cloned cells were selected by G418. The expression of iNOS mRNA was quantified by RT-PCR and iNOS expression was observed by immunofluorescence. NO product in cells was determined by measuring nitrite (NO-2) release using the Griess reaction. RESULTS: V79 cells infected human iNOS was proved to have iNOS mRNA at 462 bp by RT-PCR, and iNOS protein in the cytochylema by immunofluorescence. When the cells were incubated without H4B, the content of NO in pcDNA3 cells was minimal, with NO-2 production (82.32±13.08) just above the normal group (74 38±9 80, P>0.05, n=6) There was no significant difference between pcDNA3 cells incubated with or without H4B, (P>0.05, n=6) NO-2 production by pcDNA3-iNOS cells without H4B was higher (105 58±13 33) (n=6, P<0.01vs the normal cells or pcDNA cells). However, in pcDNA3-iNOS cells incubated with H4B, NO-2 production was much higher (236 57±3183) (n=6, P<0.01vs the all former groups). CONCLUSION: iNOS activity was increased by adding H4B in pcDNA3-iNOS cells, and the fibroblast can be a target cell of iNOS gene transfer. 相似文献
