AIM: To investigate the effect of naringin (NRG) on cisplatin (DDP) resistance in human lung cancer A549/DDP cells and its possible mechanism. METHODS: A549/DDP cells were cultured in vitro and treated with NRG and/or DDP at different concentrations for 24 h, and then the cell viability were measured by CCK-8 assay. The combination index (CI) of NRG and DDP were analyzed by Chou-Talalay method. The apoptosis rate was analyzed by flow cytometry. Western blot was performed to detect the protein levels of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 (MRP1), p-Akt, CXC chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4), cleaved caspase-3, Bcl-2 and Bax.RESULTS: The protein levels of P-gp, MRP1, p-Akt and CXCR4 in the A549/DDP cells were higher than those in the A549 cells (P<0.05). The cell viability was remarkably reduced in a dose-dependent manner when A549/DDP cells were exposed to NRG and/or DDP (P<0.05), and the IC50 values of NRG and DDP were 36.92 μmol/L and 129.77 μmol/L, respectively. When the inhibition rate exceeded 15%, NRG in combination with DDP produced a synergistic effect (CI<1). Combination treatment with NRG and DDP significantly induced apoptosis (P<0.05), up-regulated the protein levels of cleaved caspase-3 and Bax, and down-regulated the protein level of Bcl-2 (P<0.05). Meanwhile, NRG remarkably down-regulated the protein levels of P-gp, MRP1, p-Akt and CXCR4 in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: NRG may enhance the sensibility of A549/DDP cells to DDP most likely via up-regulating the protein level of Bax and down-regulating the protein levels of Bcl-2, P-gp, MRP1, p-Akt and CXCR4. 相似文献

AIM: To observe the effects of brucine on the viability and apoptosis of colon cancer SW480 cells.METHODS: The SW480 cells were divided into control group, 1 μmol/L brucine treatment group, 100 μg/L IL-6 treatment group and IL-6＋brucine treatment group. The cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay. The apoptotic rate was measured by flow cytometry using fluorescein-labeled Annexin V/PI. The changes of apoptosis-related proteins were determined by Western blot. The protein level of p-STAT3 was also detected by immunofluorescence staining. RESULTS: Brucine inhibited SW480 cell growth, and the viability inhibition rate of the SW480 cells treated with brucine alone was more efficient than using brucine combined with IL-6 (P < 0.05). The apoptotic SW480 cells increased significantly after 1 μmol/L brucine treatment as compared with brucine treatment alone (P < 0.05). The apoptotic SW480 cells were significantly reduced in brucine and IL-6 combination treatment group (P < 0.05). Brucine inhibited the protein level of p-STAT3 significantly. The protein level of p-STAT3 was significantly increased in 100 μg/L IL-6 treatment group. Compared with 1 μmol/L brucine treatment alone, the expression of Bcl-2 was increased and the protein levels of p-STAT3, Bax and cleaved PARP were reduced in brucine and IL-6 combination treatment group (P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: Brucine may inhibit the activation of STAT3 phosphorylation in IL-6/STAT3 pathway to exert an antitumor effect on SW480 cells in vitro. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of homeodomain-interacting protein kinase 2 (HIPK2) on the viabi-lity, apoptosis and JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway in NRK-52E renal tubular epithelial cells induced by hypoxia and reoxygenation (H/R). METHODS: HIPK2 small interfering RNA (siRNA) was transfected into NRK-52E cells by LipofectamineTM 2000, and normal control group (control group) and negative control group (HIPK2-NC group) were set up. After H/R, the cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay, the apoptotic rate and Ca2+ fluorescence intensity were analyzed by flow cytometry, and the protein levels of Ki67, cleaved caspase-3, caspase-12, Bcl-2, Bax, p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 were determined by Western blot. RESULTS: Compared with control group, the protein expression of HIPK2 in the NRK-52E cells was significantly decreased after transfection with HIPK2 siRNA (P<0.05). Compared with control group, the cell viability and the protein expression of Ki67 and Bcl-2 in H/R group were also significantly decreased, and the apoptotic rate, the Ca2+ fluorescence intensity and the protein levels of cleaved caspase-3, caspase-12, Bax, p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 were significantly increased (P<0.05). Compared with H/R group, the cell viability and the protein expression of Ki67 and Bcl-2 in HIPK2-siRNA+H/R group were significantly increased, while the apoptotic rate, the Ca2+ fluorescence intensity and the protein levels of cleaved caspase-3, caspase-12, Bax, p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 were significantly decreased (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Inhibition of HIPK2 gene expression promotes H/R-induced growth of NRK-52E renal tubular epithelial cells, and reduces the apoptosis. The mechanism is related to down-regulating the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway. 相似文献

AIM: To study the effect of microRNA (miR)-24 on chemotherapy sensitivity and its possible mechanisms in human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells. METHODS: The expression of miR-24 in the A549 cells and A549/DDP cells was determined by real-time PCR. Transfection of miR-24 inhibitor was used to down-regulate the miR-24 level in the A549/DDP cells. The viability and apoptosis rate were measured by CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry, respectively. The protein levels of Bcl-2, Bax, cleaved caspase-3, cleaved caspase-9, cytochrome C (Cyt C), phosphorylated extracellular signal regulated kinase (p-ERK) and P53 were detected by Western blot. Luciferase reporter assay was used to predict and identify the target genes of miR-24. RESULTS: The expression of miR-24 was significantly higher in the A549/DDP cells than that in the A549 cells (P<0.05). miR-24 inhibitor induced cell apoptosis and increased the sensitivity of the A549/DDP cells to cisplatin. Furthermore, miR-24 inhibitor down-regulated the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax, while up-regulated the protein levels of P53, p-ERK, cleaved caspase-9, cleaved caspase-3 and Cyt C. Incubation with U0126, a specific ERK inhibitor, partly reversed the viability of miR-24 inhibitor transfected A549/DDP cells. Bioinformatics analysis demonstrated that p53 was a potential target gene of miR-24. Co-teansfection of miR-24 inhibitor and P53 siRNA in A549/DDP cells partially reversed the effect of miR-24 inhibitor on cell viabiltiy. CONCLUSION: Down-regulation of miR-24 increases the sensitivity of A549/DDP cells to cisplatin. The mechanism may be related to directly targeting p53 gene and over-activation of ERK/P53 signaling pathway, thus promoting apoptosis via mitochondrial apoptosis pathway. 相似文献

METHODS: Real-time PCR was used to detect the expression of miRNA-181a in BEAS-2B cells, A549 cells and A549/DDP cells. The A549/DDP cells were transfected with pGenesil-miRNA-181a eukaryotic expression plasmid. At the same time, the untransfection group and negative transfection group were also set up. The expression of miRNA-181a, cell viability, cell growth inhibition and apoptosis rate during cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (DDP) treatment, cell cycle, cell invasion, the protein expression of miRNA-181a target genes bcl-2 and p53 in the A549/DDP cells were determined by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR, MTT assay, flow cytometry, Transwell method and Western blot, respectivly. RESULTS: The expression of miRNA-181a in A549 cells and A549/DDP cells was significantly lower than that in BEAS-2B cells, and the lowest expression level was observed in A549/DDP cells (P<0.05). The expression of miRNA-181a in A549/DDP cells was significantly increased after transfection with pGenesil-miRNA-181a (P<0.05). The cell viability, cell cycle and invasion ability of the A549/DDP cells were inhibited after miRNA-181a transfection (P<0.05). The cell growth inhibition rate and apoptotic rate of the A549/DDP cells were increased (P<0.05). The expression of Bcl-2 was reduced, but the expression of P53 was increased after transfection with miRNA-181a in A549/DDP cells (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: miRNA-181a may be correlated with the development of human lung adenocarcinoma. miRNA-181a can serve as a new target for treatment of lung cancer. 相似文献

Jagged1 regulates STAT3 signaling pathway and affects growth and apoptosis of multiple myeloma cells
AIM:To investigate the effect of Jagged1 on the growth and apoptosis of multiple myeloma cells. METHODS:Transfection with small interfering RNA targeting Jagged1 and negative control was carried out in multiple myeloma cell line U266, and the mRNA and protein levels of Jagged1 in the cells were determined by RT-qPCR and Wes-tern blot. The cells without transfection were used as blank control. Trypan blue staining was used to draw the cell growth curve. The cell viability was measured by MTT assay. The apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. The protein levels of STAT3, p-STAT3 and Bax in the cells were determined by Western blot. STAT3 signaling pathway inhibitor AG490 was used to detect the activation level of STAT3 signaling in the cells. RESULTS:Compared with the U266 cells without transfection, the expression of Jagged1 at mRNA and protein levels decreased in the U266 cells transfeced with small interfering RNA targeting Jagged1 (P<0.05). However, the expression of Jagged1 at mRNA and protein levels did not change in the U266 cells transfected with small interfering RNA negative control. Knockdown of Jagged1 expression decreased the cell viability, increased the apoptotic rate, increased Bax levels, and decreased the protein level of p-STAT3 in the U266 cells (P<0.05). AG490 treatment decreased the protein level of p-STAT3, blocked the activation of STAT3 signaling pathway, promoted the cell apoptosis induced by Jagged1 knockdown, and inhibited the viability of the U266 cells. CONCLUSION:Knock-down of Jagged1 expression promotes the apoptosis of multiple myeloma cells by inhibiting STAT3 signaling pathway, thus suppressing cell growth. 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 explore the effect of microRNA-125a-5p (miR-125a-5p) on cisplatin (DDP) resistance of non-small-cell lung cancer A549/DDP cells and its related mechanisms. METHODS:The expression levels of miR-125a-5p and LIM kinase 1 (LIMK1) in non-small-cell lung cancer tissues, A549 cells and A549/DDP cells were detected by RT-qPCR. The A549/DDP cell viability, apoptotic rate and expression of drug resistance-related proteins after over-expression or knockdown of miR-125a-5p and/or LIMK1 expression were detected by MTT assay, flow cytometry and Western blot, respectively. The targeting relationship between miR-125a-5p and LIMK1 was verified by TargetScan online prediction and dual-luciferase reporter system. The cell viability, apoptotic rate and expression of drug resistance-related proteins after co-expression of miR-125a-5p and LIMK1 were also determined. RESULTS:The expression level of miR-125a-5p was down-regulated and LIMK1 expression was up-regulated in non-small-cell lung cancer tissues and cell lines (P<0.05). The results of dual-luciferase assay indicated that miR-125a-5p negatively regulated the expression of LIMK1. The expression of drug resistance-related proteins and the viability of A549/DDP cells were inhibited after over-expression of miR-125a-5p or knockdown of LIMK1, while the apoptosis was enhanced. Over-expression of LIMK1 attenuated the inhibitory effect of miR-125a-5p on A549/DDP cell viability and drug resistance-related protein expression (P<0.05). CONCLUSION:miR-125a-5p reverses the resistance of A549/DDP cells to DDP by inhibiting the expression of LIMK1 and drug resistance-related proteins. 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 investigate the effect of calcium-regulated heat stable protein 1 (CARHSP1) gene expression on the viability, apoptosis and expression of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and C-reactive protein (CRP) in vascular endothe-lial cells induced by hypoxia.METHODS: The protein expression of CARHSP1 was detected by Western blot in atherosclerotic plaques. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were treated with hypoxia, and the cells were divided into normal culture group, hypoxia group, hypoxia+CARHSP1-siRNA group and hypoxia+pcDNA3.1-CARHSP1 group. The viability and apoptotic rate of the HUVECs were measured by CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry, respectively. The mRNA expression of IL-6 and CRP was detected by RT-PCR. The protein levels of caspase-3, cleaved caspase-3, Bcl-2 and Bax were determined by Western blot.RESULTS: The protein expression of CARHSP1 in atherosclerotic plaques was significantly higher than that in control group (P<0.05). Hypoxia significantly increased the expression of CARHSP1. The cell viability and the protein expression of Bcl-2 were significantly lower in hypoxia group than those in normal culture group (P<0.05). The apoptotic rate and the protein levels of IL-6, CRP, cleaved caspase-3 and Bax were significantly higher than those in normal culture group (P<0.05). Compared with hypoxia group, the cell viability and protein expression of Bcl-2 were significantly increased in hypoxia+CARHSP1-siRNA group, while the apoptotic rate and the protein levels of IL-6, CRP, cleaved caspase-3 and Bax were decreased significantly (P<0.05). The cell viability and protein expression of Bcl-2 were decreased significantly in hypoxia+pcDNA3.1-CARHSP1 group, while the apoptotic rate and the protein le-vels of IL-6, CRP, cleaved caspase-3 and Bax were increased significantly (P<0.05).CONCLUSION: The expression of CARHSP1 is increased in atherosclerotic plaques, and inhibition of CARHSP1 expression improves the viability, reduces the apoptosis, and down-regulates the expression of IL-6 and CRP in the HUVECs. Over-expression of CARHSP1 exerts the opposite effect. 相似文献

AIM:To investigate the effect of TRIM29 gene expression silencing on the apoptosis and PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in human nasopharyngeal carcinoma 5-8F cells. METHODS:The 5-8F cells were divided into blank group, negative control (NC) group (transfected negative control siRNA) and si-TRIM29 group (transfected TRIM29 specific siRNA). The viability of the 5-8F cells transfected with si-TRIM29 for 0~96 h was measured by CCK-8 assay. The apoptotic rate and the protein levels of TRIM29, cleaved caspase-3, cleaved caspase-9, Bcl-2, Bax, t-AKT and p-AKT in the 5-8F cells transfected with si-TRIM29 for 48 h were determined by flow cytometry and Western blot, respectively. PI3K/AKT signal specific inhibitor LY294002 at 10 μmol/L and si-TRIM29 alone or in combination were treated with the 5-8F cells, and the cells were divided into blank group, LY294002 group and LY294002+si-TRIM29 group. The apoptotic rates in the 3 groups were detected by flow cytometry. RESULTS:The protein expression of TRIM29 in the 5-8F cells transfected with TRIM29 siRNA was significantly lower than that in blank group (P<0.05). Compared with blank group, the cell viability was significantly decreased, the apoptotic rate was significantly increased, the protein levels of cleaved caspase-3, cleaved caspase-9 and Bax were significantly increased, and the protein levels of Bcl-2 and p-AKT were significantly decreased in si-TRIM29 group (P<0.05). The apoptotic rate in LY294002 group was higher than that in blank group, while that in LY294002+si-TRIM29 group was even higher than that in LY294002 group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION:Silencing of TRIM29 gene expression induces apoptosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma 5-8F cells by inhibiting PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. 相似文献

AIM:To study the effect of farrerol (Far) on nicotine-induced proliferation of rat pulmonary smooth muscle cells (PASMCs), and further to explore its relationship with voltage-dependent potassium channels (Kv) 1.5 and Kv2.1. METHODS:Firstly, the effect of nicotine on the proliferation of PASMCs was detected by cell counting method, and the optimal concentration of nicotine was selected. Primary cultured PASMCs were randomly divided into 5 groups:normal control group, nicotine (1 μmol/L)group, nicotine (1 μmol/L) + Far (10-6 mol/L, 10-5 mol/L and 10-4 mol/L) Far group. The activity of caspase-3 was measured by apoptosis kit, the cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay, the apoptotic rate was analyzed by flow cytometry. The expression of Kv1.5 and Kv2.1, and apoptosis-related factors Bcl-2 and Bax at mRNA and protein levels was determined by RT-qPCR and Western blot respectively. RESULTS:Nicotine at 1 μmol/L increased the number of PASMCs to the maximum extent (P<0.01). Nicotine at 1 μmol/L significantly reduced the caspase-3 activity and enhanced the cell viability of the PASMCs (P<0.01). Farrerol at 10-6~10-4 mol/L eliminated the effect of PASMCs induced by nicotine in a concentration dependent manner. Compared with control group, nicotine at 1 μmol/L significantly increased the proliferation and inhibited the apoptotic rate of rat PASMCs (P<0.01). The apoptotic rate of PASMCs in farrerol intervention group was significantly higher than that in nicotine group (P<0.01). Nicotine at 1 μmol/L significantly inhibited the expression of Kv1.5, Kv2.1 and Bax but increased the expression of Bcl-2 in PASMCs (P<0.01). Farrerol at 10-5 mol/L obviously inhibited the effect of PASMCs induced by nicotine. CONCLUSION:Farrerol eliminates nicotine-induced inhibition of caspase-3 and Bax, and enhancement of Bcl-2 in PASMCs by enhancing Kv1.5 and Kv2.1 expression. 相似文献

AIM: To study the effect of long intergenic non-coding RNA-p21 (lincRNA-p21) on the growth inhibition of colorectal cancer HCT116 cells via STAT3 signaling pathway. METHODS: The human colorectal cancer cell line HCT116 was used to construct the cells with over-expression of lincRNA-p21 by transfection of pcDNA-lincRNA-p21, and negative control cells were also set up. After transfection, the expression level of lincRNA-p21 was detected by RT-qPCR. The cell viability and proliferation were examined by MTT assay and plate colony formation assay, respectively. The protein levels of STAT3 and phosphorylated STAT3 (p-STAT3) were determined by Western blot. After STAT3 signaling pathway activator SD19 was used to treat the colorectal cancer HCT116 cells with over-expression of lincRNA-p21, Western blot was used to detect the protein levels of STAT3 and p-STAT3, MTT assay was used to measure the viability of the cells, and flow cytometry analysis was used to determine the cell apoptosis. RESULTS: Compared with control group and pcDNA group, the expression of lincRNA-p21 in pcDNA-lincRNA-p21 group was significantly up-regulated, the cell proliferation was inhibited, and the protein levels of STAT3 and p-STAT3 were significantly decreased (P<0.05). After treatment with STAT3 activator SD19, the protein levels of STAT3 and p-STAT3 in pcDNA-lincRNA-p21+SD19 group were higher than those in pcDNA-lincRNA-p21 group, the cell viability was increased, and the apoptotic rate was decreased significantly (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Over-expression of lincRNA-p21 inhibits the growth of colorectal cancer HCT116 cells. STAT3 signaling pathway activator abolishes the growth inhibitory effect of lincRNA-p21 over-expression. lincRNA-p21 inhibits the growth of colorectal cancer cells by inhibiting the activation of STAT3 signaling. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of cobalt chloride (CoCl2) on the apoptosis of neural stem cells (NSCs) and the expression of microRNA-26a (miR-26a) in vitro, and to explore the mechanisms of NSC apoptosis induced by CoCl2. METHODS: NSCs were exposed to CoCl2 at different doses (200~600 μmol/L) for 24 h. The cell viability and apoptosis were measured by CCK-8 assay and TUNEL method. The expression of miR-26a-3p, miR-26a-5p, GSK-3β, caspase-3, Bcl-2 and Bax was examined by real-time PCR. The protein levels of Bcl-2 and Bax were detected by Western blotting. RESULTS: The cell viability was inhibited and the apoptosis of NSCs was increased significantly by CoCl2 in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.05). CoCl2 at concentration of 400 μmol/L for 24 h was used to induce apoptosis and the expression of miR-26a was down-regulated compared with control (P<0.05). Exposure to CoCl2 at concentration of 400 μmol/L up-regulated the expression of GSK-3β, caspase-3 and Bax, down-regulated the expression of Bcl-2 and Bcl-2/Bax (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: CoCl2 at concentration of 400 μmol/L induces the apoptosis of NSCs obviously. CoCl2 may induce the NSC apoptosis by mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. Declining miR-26a may be related to NSC apoptosis. 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 effect of apelin-13 on nicotine-induced apoptosis of cardiomyocytes and its potential molecular mechanism. METHODS:Rat H9c2 cells were treated with nicotine (10 μmol/L) to induced apoptosis. Flow cytometry was used to detect apoptotic rate. Western blot was used to determined the expression of related proteins. RESULTS:Compared with control group, nicotine treatment significantly increased the apoptotic rate of the H9c2 cells (P<0.01), and the protein levels of apoptosis-related proteins Bax and cleaved caspase-3, but markedly decreased the protein levels of Bcl-2, p-Akt, p-PI3K and APJ (P<0.05). Compared with nicotine group, apelin-13+nicotine significantly decreased the apoptotic rate of the H9c2 cells (P<0.01) and the the protein levels of Bax and cleaved caspase-3, but markedly increased the protein levels of Bcl-2, p-Akt, p-PI3K and APJ (P<0.05). Compared with apelin-13+nicotine group, apelin-13+nicotine+PI3K/Akt inhibitor LY294002 significantly increased the apoptotic rate of the H9c2 cells (P<0.01) and the protein levels of Bax and cleaved caspase-3, but markedly decreased the protein levels of Bcl-2, p-Akt and p-PI3K (P<0.05). CONCLUSION:Apelin-13 inhibits nicotine-induced apoptosis of H9c2 cells through PI3K/Akt 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
