AIM: To investigate the role of NF-κB/IκB signal pathway in the regulation of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression in human mesangial cells (HMC). METHODS: The PGE2 concentration in supernatants of HMC was measured by radioimmunoassay. COX-2 mRNA and protein expression were determined by RT-PCR and Western blot. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) and Western blot were used to detect the activity of NF-κB and degradation of IκB. RESULTS: IL-1β significantly upregulated COX-2 expression and PGE2 production in HMC. Significant up-regulation of NF-κB activation, nuclear translocation of p65 subunit, and degradation of IκB α and IκB β were observed in IL-1β-induced HMC. CONCLUSION: Expression of COX-2 in IL-1β-induced HMC is mediated by NF-κB/IκB signal pathway.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the anti-inflammatory action of resveratrol (Res) and its correlation with nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway in a mouse model of inflammatory pain.METHODS: BALB/c mice (n=60) were randomly divided into 6 groups:normal control group, inflammatory pain model group, positive control (dexamethasone, 0.5 mg/kg) group and resveratrol (100, 50 and 25 mg/kg) groups (10 mice in each group). In order to observe the anti-inflammatory pain effects of reseratrol on mice, the paw withdrawal mechanical threshold, paw withdrawal thermal latency and cold withdrawal times were detected. In order to analyze the mechanism of analgesic effect of resveratrol, the expression levels of NF-κB, inhibitor of NF-κB (IκB) α, inhibitor of NF-κB kinase (IKK) β, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-1β in the spinal cord tissues (L4~L6) of the mice were determined by RT-PCR and Western blot.RESULTS: The resveratrol at 100 and 50 mg/kg increased the paw withdrawal mechanical threshold, prolonged the paw withdrawal thermal latency, and decreased the cold withdrawal times in the inflammatory pain mice (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The resveratrol at 100 mg/kg down-regulated the mRNA and protein expression levels of NF-κB, IκBα, IKKβ, TNF-α and IL-1β in the spinal cord tissues (L4~L6) of inflammatory pain mice (P<0.05 or P<0.01).CONCLUSION: Resveratrol ameliorates the inflammatory pain of the mice induced by complete Freund's adjuvant. The mechanism is related to the inhibition of NF-κB signaling pathway.  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 investigate the effect of linarin (LIN) on the migration and invasion abilities of human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells and its underlying mechanism. METHODS: MCF-7, MDA-MB-231 and MCF-10A cells were cultured in vitro and treated with LIN at 5, 10, 20, 40, 80 and 160 μmol/L for 24 h, and the cell proliferation was measured by CCK-8 assay and colony formation assay. The protein levels of Snail, E-cadherin, matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), IκBα, p-IKKα/β and p-p65 were determined by Western blot. RESULTS: LIN remarkably reduced the viability of MDA-MB-231 cells in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.05), and the IC50 was 55.89 μmol/L for 24 h. LIN decreased the colony formation rate of MDA-MB-231 cells at the concentration of 20 μmol/L (P<0.05). After exposed to LIN at 5 μmol/L and 10 μmol/L for 24 h, the migration and invasion abilities of the MDA-MB-231 cells were significantly reduced (P<0.05), the protein expression levels of E-cadherin and IκBα were up-regulated (P<0.05), the protein expression levels of Snail and MMP-9 were down-regulated (P<0.05), and the phosphorylation levels of IKKα/β and p65 were decreased (P<0.05) in comparison with the control group. Meanwhile, IKK-16 (IKKα/β inhibitor) and PDTC (NF-κB inhibitor) also down-regulated the protein expression levels of Snail and MMP-9 (P<0.05), and up-regulated the protein expression level of E-cadherin (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: LIN down-regulates the protein expression levels of Snail and MMP-9, and up-regulates the protein expression level of E-cadherin most likely through inhibiting IKK/NF-κB signaling pathway, and ultimately lead to decreases in the migration and invasion abilities of MDA-MB-231 cells.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of high mobility group box-1 protein (HMGB1) on the expression of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) in BV-2 cells stimulated with amyloid β-protein (Aβ)25-35. METHODS: Cultured BV-2 cells in logarithmic growth phase were divided into 4 groups:normal cell group (without any treatment), model group (treated with Aβ25-35 at 40 μmol/L), RNA interference (RNAi) group (conducted with HMGB1-siRNA followed by Aβ25-35 stimulation) and solvent control group (treated with 0.1% DMSO). After treatment with Aβ25-35 for 24 h, the protein levels of HMGB1 and NF-κB in BV-2 cells were determined by Western blot. RESULTS: Aβ25-35 at 40 μmol/L was used to stimulate BV-2 cells. The GFP fluorescence-tagged HMGB1-siRNA (30 nmol/L) was used to transfect BV-2 cells and its transfection efficiency was about 80%~90%. The results of Western blot showed that the protein level of HMGB1 was significantly decreased after the interference of siRNA fragment (P<0.05). The protein levels of HMGB1 and nucleic NF-κB p65 were dramatically increased in BV-2 cells stimulated with Aβ25-35 (P<0.05). After RNA interference with HMGB1, the expression of HMGB1 and nucleic NF-κB p65 were significantly decreased in BV-2 cells stimulated with Aβ25-35 (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: RNA interference with HMGB1 reduces the expression of nucleic NF-κB in BV-2 cells stimulated with Aβ25-35.  相似文献

AIM:To explore the role of transient receptor potential channels subfamily C (TRPCs) and inflammation in left ventricular fibrosis induced by high salt and the effect of telmisartan. METHODS:Wistar rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: normal control (C) group (n=13), high salt (8%) model group (HS, n=24) and high salt+telmisartan (T) group (n=12). Tail-cuff artery pressure was determined every 2 weeks. The interstitial collagen deposition and inflammation were observed by Masson and HE staining, respectively. The expression of TRPC1, TRPC3, TRPC6, calcineurin (CaN), nuclear factor-κB p65 (NF-κB p65), transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) were determined by real-time PCR or Western blotting. RESULTS:Masson staining showed that left ventricle in HS group exhibited severer myocardial interstitial fibrosis compared with C group. TRPC, CaN and NF-κB assays showed that high-salt diet increased the protein expression of TRPC1, TRPC3 and TRPC6, and activated CaN and NF-κB as compared with C group. The results of HE staining, real-time PCR and Western blotting showed that high salt-treated Wistar rats had enhanced cardiac infiltration of inflammatory cells, as well as increased cardiac levels of proinflammatory cytokines (TGF-β1, IL-1β, VCAM-1, ICAM-1 and MCP-1) as compared with C group. After treated with telmisartan, left ventricular mass index and collagen volume fraction became much lower, and the levels of TRPC1, TRPC3, TRPC6, CaN, NF-κB p65, TGF-β1, ICAM-1 and MCP-1 were significantly reduced. CONCLUSION: Inflammation is exacerbated in left ventricular fibrosis induced by high salt. The mechanism may be related to the up-regulation of TRPCs, CaN and NF-κB at mRNA and protein levels. Telmisartan inhibits the expression of TRPCs and NF-κB, and ameliorates the inflammatory responses in left ventricular fibrosis.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of curcumin (Cur) on the expression of High mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in amyloid-β (Aβ)-induced primary rat microglial cells. METHODS: Microglia were derived from the cerebral cortices of postnatal rat brains. The cells were identified by immunocytochemistry using mouse anti rat Iba-1 monoclonal antibody. A cell model using primary rat microglial cells incubated with Aβ25-35 as an inflammation model of Alzheimer's disease (AD) was set up. The morphological characters of primary rat microglial cells were observed. The concentration of Aβ25-35 and the treatment concentration of curcumin were selected by CCK-8 assay. Cultured primary rat microglial cells were divided into 5 groups:normal cell group, Aβ25-35 group, Cur group, Aβ25-35+Cur group and Aβ25-35+DMSO group. The expression of HMGB1, NF-κB, and receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) was detected by Western blot. The levels of HMGB1, IL-1β, and TNF-α in the culture supernatant were measured by ELISA. RESULTS: The purity of primary microglias determined by Iba-1 immunofluorescence was more than 95%. The protein levels of HMGB1, RAGE and NF-κB were significantly increased after Aβ25-35 stimulation. After treatment with Cur, the protein levels of HMGB1, RAGE and NF-κB were significantly decreased (P<0.05). The levels of HMGB1, IL-1β and TNF-α in the supernatant were significantly increased after Aβ25-35 stimulation. Cur significantly decreased the level of HMGB1, IL-1β and TNF-α in the supernatant. CONCLUSION: Curcumin significantly inhibits neuroinflammation stimulated by Aβ25-35 in primary rat microglial cells.  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 observe the effects of transection of right cervical sympathetic trunk (TCST) on inflammatory response and expression of high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) and TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway in the rats after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). METHODS: AMI model was established by ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery in SD rats, then the model rats were randomly divided into MI group and MI+TCST group. MI+TCST model was performed by transection of right cervical sympathetic trunk after left anterior descending coronary artery ligation. The rats in MI group and MI+TCST group were divided into 1, 3, 7, 14 and 28 d subgroups, and another sham operation group threading without ligation, with 8 rats in above each group. After modeling for 4 weeks, the cardiac function was measured by echocardiography. All rats were killed to harvest the hearts for mesuring cardiac hypertrophy index. The myocardial tissue close to infarction was observed with HE staining. The relative mRNA expression levels of HMGB1, tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α) and interleukin (IL)-6 at different time points were detected by real-time PCR. The protein expression of HMGB1 and TLR4 at different time points after AMI was determined by Western blot. The effect of transection of right cervical sympathetic trunk on the expressions of HMGB1 and TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway was also analyzed.RESULTS: Compared with the MI group, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular shorterning fraction (LVFS) were significantly higher (P<0.05), left ventricular end-diastole dimension (LVEDd), left ventricular end-systole dimension (LVESd) and cardiac hypertrophy index were significantly lower (P<0.05), and the mRNA levels of HMGB1, TNF-α and IL-6 decreased significantly in MI+TCST group (P<0.05). Western blot results revealed that the protein expression level of HMGB1 increased in the infarct border zone at 3 d, and reached its peak at 7 d, then gradually decreased, and at 28 d after MI in MI group was still significantly higher than that in sham group (P<0.05). The protein expression of TLR4 was consistent with that of HMGB1. Transection of right cervical sympathetic trunk reduced protein expression of HMGB1 and TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway-related proteins (P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Transection of right cervical sympathetic trunk improves ventricular remodeling and maintaining cardiac function. The mechanism may be related to inhibiting HMGB1/TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway to reduce inflammatory response.  相似文献

AIM:To investigate the effect of Krüppel-like factor 4 (KLF4) on the viability, apoptosis and cisplatin chemosensitivity of colorectal cancer cells. METHODS:KLF4 expression in colorectal cancer cell lines Caco2, SW480 and HCT116 was detected by Western blot. The SW480 cells were divided into pcDNA3.1 group (transfected with pcDNA3.1 empty plasmid), pcDNA3.1-KLF4 group (transfected with pcDNA3.1-KLF4 expression plasmid) and pcDNA3.1-KLF4+cisplatin group (treated with 1 mg/L cisplatin for 48 h after pcDNA3.1-KLF4 was transfected into SW480 cells). The protein levels of KLF4, p-IκBα, cyclin D1 and survivin were determined by Western blot. The cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay. The apoptotic rate was analyzed by flow cytometry. The content of reactive oxygen species(ROS) was measured by DCFH-DA probe. RESULTS:The expression of KLF4 in the colorectal cancer cells were significantly lower than that in the human colon mucosal epithelial NCM460 cells (P<0.05). Compared with pcDNA3.1 group, the protein expression of KLF4 in pcDNA3.1-KLF4 group was significantly increased (P<0.05). Compared with pcDNA3.1 group, the cell viability and the protein expression of cyclin D1 and survivin were significantly decreased, and the apoptotic rate, the content of ROS and the protein level of p-IκBα were significantly increased in pcDNA3.1 group (P<0.05). Compared with pcDNA3.1-KLF4 group, the cell viability and the expression of cyclin D1 and survivin proteins were significantly decreased, and the apoptotic rate, the content of ROS and the protein level of p-IκBα were significantly increased in pcDNA3.1-KLF4+cisplatin group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION:Upregulation of KLF4 gene expression in colorectal cancer cells reduces the cell viability, induces apoptosis and increases the chemosensitivity of the cells to cisplatin. The mechanism may be related to the enhancement of intracellular ROS content and down-regulaton of the phosphorylation level of IκBα, the key molecule of NF-κB signaling pathway.  相似文献

AIM: To explore the effect of microRNA-146a (miR-146a) on apoptosis of human gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells and the underluing mechanism. METHODS: miR-146a mimic (up-regulated miR-146a expression) and miR-146a inhibitor (down-regulated miR-146a expression) were transfected into the SGC-7901 cells by liposome method. At the same time, miRNA nonsense sequence transfection group as the negative control group (NC group) was set up. RT-qPCR was used to evaluate the levels of miR-146a in the SGC-7901 cells after transfection. The effects of miR-146a on the cell apoptosis and growth were assessed by flow cytometry analysis and CCK-8 assay, respectively. The effect of over-expression or knockdown of miR-146a on transforming growth factor-β-activated kinase 1 (TAK1)/nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling was evaluated by RT-qPCR and Western blot. RESULTS: miR-146a modulated apoptosis of SGC-7901 cells. Over-expression of miR-146a significantly increased apoptosis, whereas knockdown of miR-146a inhibited the apoptosis of SGC-7901 cells. The expression of TAK1 at mRNA and protein levels was significantly decreased when miR-146a mimic was transfected into the SGC-7901 cells (P<0.05). On the contrast, the expression of TAK1 at mRNA and protein were significantly higher in miR-146a inhibitor transfection group than that in NC group (P<0.05), suggesting that miR-146a negatively regulated TAK1 expression. Moreover, knockdown of TAK1 enhanced the apoptosis of SGC-7901 cells (P<0.01), while over-expression of TAK1 inhibited the apoptosis of SGC-7901 cells(P<0.01). Additionally, both over-expression of miR-146a and knockdown of TAK1 led to a prominent increase in the expression of NF-κB inhibitor protein alpha (IκBα) and a significat decrease in B cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) level in the SGC-7901 cells. CONCLUSION: miR-146a significantly promotes apoptosis of SGC-7901 cells by inhibition of NF-κB pathway via targeting TAK1.  相似文献

AIM: To observe the effects of TNF-α/nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)/matrix metalloproteinase-2(MMP-2) pathway on the expression of MMP-2 in the mice with viral myocarditis. METHODS: Six-week-old inbred male mice were randomly assigned to control and myocarditis group. The mice in myocarditis group and control group were intraperitoneally inoculated with 0.1 mL 10-5.69 TCID50/mL coxsackievirus B3 and vehicle (PBS), respectively. Ten mice were sacrificed at the 4th and 10th days after injection. The blood and heart specimens were harvested. The serum content of TNF-α was measured by ELISA. The myocardial levels of MMP-2, NF-κB p65 and IκBα were determined by Western blot. RESULTS: Compared with control group, the protein expression of MMP-2 and NF-κB p65 in the myocardium and the serum content of TNF-α were significantly increased in myocarditis group (P<0.05). The protein expression of IκBα was lower in myocarditis group than that in control group (P<0.05).CONCLUSION: TNF-α, NF-κB p65 and MMP-2 were higher in the mice with acute viral myocarditis. The increased expression of them might be involved in the pathogenesis of viral myocarditis.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the inhibitory effect of ginsenoside Re on intimal hyperplasia induced by balloon-injury and to explore the role of NF-κB p65 signaling pathway in the process. METHODS: SD rats(n=40) were divided into 5 groups randomly: sham operation group, model group, low-dose ginsenoside Re group, middle-dose ginsenoside Re group and high-dose ginsenoside Re group. The carotid artery intima injury model was established by 2F balloon catheters in all groups except the sham operation group. The day after modeling, the animals in model group and sham operation group were administered intragastrically with distilled water, and the rats in low-dose, middle-dose and high-dose ginsenoside Re groups were given ginsenoside Re at doses of 12.5 mg/kg, 25mg/kg and 50 mg/kg, respectively. After 14 continuous days, the morphological changes of the injured arteries were observed by HE staining and the lumen area, intima area and media area as well as the ratio of intimal area/media area were determined. The expression of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) and interleukin-1β(IL-1β) were detected by real-time PCR. The proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA) and nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-κB) p65 were examined by immunohistochemistry.RESULTS: Compared with sham operation group, the vessel cavity was narrowed(P<0.01), the mRNA levels of TNF-α and IL-1β, and the protein expression of PCNA and NF-κB p65 were increased in model group(P<0.05). Compared with model group, the vascular intimal hyperplasia was alleviated obviously(P<0.05), and the mRNA levels of TNF-α and IL-1β, and protein expression of PCNA and NF-κB p65 were decreased in medium and high-dose ginsenoside Re groups(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Ginsenoside Re inhibits the vascular neointimal hyperplasia induced by balloon-injury in rats, and the molecular mechanism may be related to the inhibition of NF-κB p65 signaling pathway.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the combined effect of octreotide and Dachaihu decoction on the treatment of severe acute pancreatitis(SAP). METHODS: Wistar rats(n=50) were randomly divided into sham group, SAP group, octreotide group, Dachaihu decoction group and combination group. The quantity of ascites was measured. The levels of amylase, alanine aminotransferase and creatinine in the serum were examined. The morphological changes of the pancreatic tissues were observed by HE staining. The activation of NF-κB and IκBα expression were determined by Western blot. The mRNA expression with ICAM-1 and IL-1 was detected by qPCR.RESULTS: Combined treatment with octreotide and Dachaihu decoction effectively reduced the quantity of ascites and the levels of amylase, alanine aminotransferase and creatinine in the serum in SAP rats. Moreover, combined treatment significantly inhibited SAP-induced activation of NF-κB and decrease in IκBα protein expression, accompanied by a decrease in ICAM-1 and IL-1 mRNA expression. CONCLUSION: Combination of octreotide with Dachaihu decoction effectively attenuates SAP by inhibiting NF-κB signaling pathway and ICAM-1 and IL-1 expression.  相似文献

AIM：To investigate whether hydrogen sulfide (H2S) protects the hearts against inflammatory responses induced by acute myocardial ischemia in isolated rat hearts. METHODS：Rat acute myocardial ischemia injury was induced by ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery for 4 h, and the normal perfusate was replaced with NaHS (5 μmol/L, 10 μmol/L and 20 μmol/L) perfusate accordingly in NaHS groups 2 h after ischemia. The changes of cardiac function in the myocardial ischemic injury rats were observed. The mRNA expression of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10 and ICAM-1 was detected by real-time PCR. The protein level of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) in the myocardial tissues was detected by Western blotting. RESULTS：The cardiac function in ischemia group was lower than that in sham group (P<0.01). Compared with ischemia group, perfusion of NaHS resulted in the improvement of the cardiac function (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with sham group, the mRNA expression of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and ICAM-1 in the cardiac tissues was significantly increased, and the mRNA expression of IL-10 in the cardiac tissues was significantly decreased in ischemia group (P<0.01). Compared with ischemia group, the perfusion of NaHS significantly decreased the mRNA expression of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and ICAM-1 (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The perfusion of NaHS at concentrations of 10 μmol/L and 20 μmol/L significantly increased the mRNA expression of IL-10 (P<0.01). The protein level of NF-κB in ischemia group was markedly higher than that in sham group (P<0.01). Compared with ischemia group, the perfusion of NaHS at concentrations of 10 μmol/L and 20 μmol/L significantly decreased the expression of NF-κB (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSION：H2S protects the hearts against acute ischemia injury through inhibition of NF-κB activation and subsequent down-regulation of NF-κB-dependent inflammatory gene expression.  相似文献

AIM:To investigate the effect of capsaicin on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced activation of cultured endothelial cells of mouse aorta in vitro. METHODS:The endothelial cells were isolated from mouse aorta and cultured in vitro, and the specific cell markers of the cells were identified by immunofluorescence staining. The cells were stimulated with LPS (100 μg/L) combined with or without capsaicin, and the cells and supernatant were collected at 12 h, 24 h and 48 h. The levels of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (sICAM-1), soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (sVCAM-1) and soluble P-selectin (sP-selectin) in the supernatant were measured by ELISA. The levels of nuclear NF-κB p65 and cytopasmic p-IκBα and IκBα were detected by Western blotting. RESULTS:Compared with control group, the levels of sP-selectin, sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in LPS group were significantly increased (P<0.05), and LPS promoted the expression of sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in a time-dependent manner. Compared with LPS group at the same time point, capsaicin inhibited the expression of sP-selectin, sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in a dose-dependent manner. Compared with control group, the protein levels of NF-κB p65 and p-IκBα in LPS group at 24 h were significantly increased (P<0.05), while the protein level of IκBα in LPS group at 24 h were significantly decreased (P<0.05). Compared with LPS group, capsaicin decreased the protein levels of NF-κB p65 and p-IκBα and increased the protein level of IκBα in a dose-dependent manner. CONCLUSION: Capsaicin has a protective effect on LPS-induced vascular endothelial cell activation, which potentially contributes to the suppression of IκBα degradation and NF-κB p65 nuclear translocation.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) on high glucose-induced acetylation of NF-κB p65 subunit and its protective role in rat mesangial cells. METHODS: Rat mesangial cells were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS and were divided into control group, mannitol group, high glucose group, resveratrol group and SIRT1 RNAi group. The cell viability was determined by MTT assay. The mRNA expression of SIRT1, monocyte chemoattratant protein 1 (MCP-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1-1), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) was analyzed by real-time quantitative PCR. The protein expression of SIRT1 and the acetylation of NF-κB p65 subunit were determined by Western blotting. The protein concentrations of MCP-1, VCAM-1, TNF-α, TGF-β1 and malondialdehyde (MDA) were detected by ELISA. RESULTS: The cell viability, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, and the expression of SIRT1 at mRNA and protein levels were decreased by high glucose treatment as compared with control group. The acetylation of NF-κB p65 subunit was significantly increased after interfered with high glucose, resulting in the increase in the secretion of MCP-1, VCAM-1, TNF-α and TGF-β1. Resveratrol decreased high glucose-induced acetylation of NF-κB p65 subunit. However, silencing SIRT1 significantly enhanced the acetylation of NF-κB p65 subunit and the expression of MCP-1, VCAM-1, TNF-α and TGF-β1. CONCLUSION: SIRT1 remarkably inhibits the inflammatory reactions by deacetylating NF-κB p65, suggesting that SIRT1 is a possible target for preventing diabetic nephropathy.  相似文献
