AIM: To study the effect of luteolin on endothelial cell injuries induced by H2O2. METHODS: Endothelial cells were cultured in vitro and divided into seven groups: control; solvent; H2O2; quercetin+H2O2; luteolin-L+H2O2; luteolin-M+H2O2; luteolin-H+H2O2 group, respectively. Endothelial cells were incubated with 750 μmol/L H2O2 for 18 h or 14 h in the absence or presence of various concentrations of luteolin and quercetin. The expression of caspase-3, the pro-apoptotic factors, was detected by immunohistochemical technique, and the apoptotic index was detected by flow cytometry. Meanwhile, the amount of malondialdehyde (MDA), nitric oxide (NO), lacate dehydrogenase (LDH) in serum, and cell viability were measured. RESULTS: Incubation of endothelial cells with H2O2 for 18 h elicited the increase in the extent of immunostaining for caspase-3, the rate of apoptosis, the release of LDH, and the number of dead cells accompanied by the decrease in the content of NO in the medium, which were inhibited by pretreatment of luteolin at concentrations of 0.5-50 μmol/L in a concentration-dependent manner (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: Luteolin possesses a protective effect against endothelial cell injuries induced by H2O2, which may be related with anti-oxidation, increasing the concentration of NO and inhibiting the activation of caspase-3.  相似文献

AIM: To study the effect of vitamin K3 (VK3) on the induction of apoptosis in androgen-independent prostate cancer cell PC-3M in vitro.METHODS: Cell viability was estimated by MTT assay. AO/EB staining was performed to detect apoptotic cells. Apoptosis and the changes of cell cycle were detected by flow cytometry. NAC was used to observe the effect of growth inhibition by VK3. RT-PCR was used to confirm the changes in gene expression. Levels of intracellular peroxides were estimated by using an oxidation-sensitive fluorescent probe DCFH-DA. RESULTS: PC-3M cells growth was significantly inhibited by VK3 (≥60 μmol/L, P<0.05). The inhibitory effect was time and dosage dependent. The result of AO/EB staining showed that apoptosis of PC-3M cells were induced by VK3. A typical subdiploid peak before G0/G1 phase was observed after treated for 12 h with VK3 (60 μmol/L) by flow cytometry. The effect of growth inhibition treated with VK3 was antagonized by antioxygen NAC (5, 10, 20, 40, 80 μmol/L). An increase in the level of DCF fluorescence after PC-3M cells were treated for 1-2 h with VK3 was observed. Antioxidase GSH-Px and CAT were run-down after treated with VK3. CONCLUSION: The results indicate that apoptosis in PC-3M cells is induced through oxidative stress by VK3.  相似文献

AIM: To explore the effect of shikonin on rat primary cortical neurons in oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD)-induced injury model.METHODS: The neurons were pretreated with shikonin at different concentrations (0.02, 0.2, 2 and 20 μmol/L) followed by treatment with OGD. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release assay and fluorescein diacetate/propidium iodide (FDA/PI) double staining were used to detect neuronal viability and apoptosis, and then the optimal concentration of shikonin was determined. LY294002 (PI3K/Akt signaling pathway inhibitor, 1 μmol/L) was added before the addition of shikonin, and the protein level of p-Akt (Ser473) in the neurons was determined by Wes-tern blot. LDH release assay and FDA/PI double staining were also used to detect neuronal viability and apoptosis.RESULTS: A certain concentration (0.2~20 μmol/L) of shikonin increased the viability of impaired neurons (P<0.05) and the protein level of p-Akt (Ser473) in the neurons (P<0.05). The effect of shikonin on neuronal p-Akt (Ser473) levels and the cell death were blocked by LY294002 (P<0.05).CONCLUSION: A certain concentration of shikonin reduces OGD-induced apoptosis of rat primary cortical neurons by activating PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.  相似文献

AIM:To explore the role of extracellular signal-regulated kinases ERK1/2-STAT3 pathway in adaptive cytoprotection induced by H2O2 preconditioning in PC12 cells. METHODS:In PC12 cells, the experimental model of cytoprotection by H2O2 preconditioning against oxidative stress-induced injury was set up. The morphological changes in the apoptotic cells were observed by using of chromatin dye Hoechst 33258. The percent of apoptotic cells was determined by flow cytometry (FCM) with propidium iodide staining. The levels of p-ERK1/2 and p-STAT3 expression were detected by Western blotting assay. RESULTS:Preconditioning with H2O2 at concentration of 100 μmol/L for 90 min obviously inhibited apoptosis induced by 300 μmol/L H2O2, and both ERK1/2 and STAT3 were activated. UO126 (10 μmol/L, an inhibitor of ERK1/2) or AG-490 (10μmol/L, an inhibitor of JAK2) significantly blocked the cytoprotection effect of H2O2 preconditioning. Moreover, UO126 (10 μmol/L) also markedly inhibited the up-regulation of p-STAT3 expression by H2O2 preconditioning. CONCLUSION:H2O2 preconditioning activates ERK1/2-STAT3 signal pathway, which may be one of the mechanisms underlying H2O2 preconditioning-induced cytoprotection.  相似文献

AIM: To explore the changes and the possible function of mtCLIC/CLIC4 (mitochondrial chloride intracellular channel 4) proteins in malignant C6 glioma cells treated with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). METHODS: The viability of C6 cells was measured by MTT assay, LDH release rate was detected by ultraviolet spectrophotometry, CLIC4 mRNA level was determined by RT-PCR and CLIC4 protein level was measured by Western blotting. RESULTS: Compared with the control group, the cell viability was constant, the LDH release rate increased obviously, and the CLIC4 protein level also increased significantly in 500 μmol/L H2O2 treated group (P<0.05, respectively). However, the cell viability decreased, LDH release rate increased significantly (P<0.01, respectively), and the CLIC4 protein level increased obviously in 1 000 μmol/L H2O2 treated group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The CLIC4 protein may be involved in the process of C6 injuries induced by H2O2.  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 the effects of marine fungal metabolites 1386A from the South China Sea(1386A) on gastric cancer cell line MCG-803.METHODS: The effects of 1386A on cell viability and cell growth were detected by MTT method and colony-forming assay, respectively. The changes of cell cycle, cell apoptosis and mitochondrial membrane potential were determined by flow cytometry.RESULTS: The IC50 of cell viability on MCG-803 cells after treated with 1386A for 24 h, 48 h and 72 h was 29.70 μmol/L, 14.07 μmol/L or 13.47 μmol/L, respectively. The IC50 of the cell growth on MCG-803 cells after treated with 1386A for 48 h was 3.27 μmol/L. After treated with 1386A for 48 h, the MCG-803 cells in S stage was increased from 25.6% to 56.8%. After treated with 1386A for 24 h, the early apoptosis of MCG-803 cells was increased from 3.34% to 8.39%, and the mitochondrial membrane potential of MCG-803 cells was decreased by 56.26%.CONCLUSION: 1386A has an inhibitory effect on the cell growth in MCG-803 cells through the mitochondrial pathway.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of astragalosides on autophagy and apoptosis of rat cardiomyocytes induced by hydrogenperoxide (H2O2).METHODS: The injury model of H9c2 cells induced by H2O2 was established, and the cells in astragalosides group and rapamycin group were treated with 20 mg/L astragalosides and 0.1 mg/L rapamycin, respectively. The apoptotic rate was detected by flow cytometry. The autophagy was observed by acridine orange staining. Western blot was used to detect the protein levels of p-mTOR, P70S6K, LC3 and caspase-3. RESULTS: Compared with H2O2 group and rapamycin group, the viability of H9c2 cells in astragalosides group was significantly increased (P<0.05). The shape of the H9c2 cells in astragalosides group was complete, the nuclei were stained with yellow-green fluorescence, and the chromatin was distributed evenly. The protein levels of p-mTOR and P70S6K in the H9c2 cells of astragalosides group were significantly increased (P<0.05), whereas the protein levels of LC3, cleaved caspase-3 and caspase-3 in the H9c2 cells of astragalosides group were decreased significantly (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Astragalosides enhance the viability, inhibit the apoptosis, increase the protein levels of p-mTOR and P70S6K, and decrease the protein levels of LC3, cleaved caspase-3 and caspase-3 in the H2O2-induced rat myocardial H9c2 cells. The mechanism is related to the mTOR signaling pathway.  相似文献

AIM: To characterize the vasodilatatory effect of CH2Cl2 extract of flos magnoliae (CEF) on isolated rat thoracic aorta and to elucidate its possible mechanism. METHODS: The thoracic aorta was isolated from male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats and the isometric tension of aortic rings with or without endothelium was measured. RESULTS: CEF (0.1-1 000 mg/L) produced concentration-dependent, endothelium-independent relaxations in phenylephrine (PE)-contracted aortic rings. The maximum relaxation induced by CEF was 78.68%±6.03% in endothelium intact rings and 64.98%±13.90% in endothelium removed rings while the forskolin (1 μmol/L)-induced vasodilation was obtained as 100%. The vasodilatatory effect of CEF was not statistically inhibited by 10 μmol/L glibenclamide (Glib), 3 mmol/L tetraethylammonium (TEA), 100 μmol/L BaCl2 and 10 μmol/L 1H- -oxadiazole- -quinoxalin-1-one (ODQ) in the preparations without endothelium. The CEF pre-treatment significantly inhibited vasoconstrictions to angiotensin Ⅱ (AngⅡ), prostaglandin F2α, (PGF2α), dopamine (Dopa), vasopressin (Vaso), 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and PE by 91.31%, 82.11%, 95.32%, 90.53%, 72.22% and 83.63%, respectively (P<0.01). In Ca2+-free medium treated endothelium removed aortic ring, incubation with CEF at concentration of 82 mg/L significantly attenuated intracellular Ca2+ release by PE. In Ca2+-free + high potassium medium incubated aortic rings without endothelium, CEF (82 mg/L) markedly inhibited potassium-stimulated Ca2+-dependent contraction which was mainly due to Ca2+ influx (P<0.01).CONCLUSION: CEF induced vasorelaxation is mainly related to interfering intracellular calcium homeostasis by blocking Ca2+ influx and intracellular Ca2+ release.  相似文献

AIM:To investigate the cellular mechanisms by which PGF2α promotes glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in NIT-1 beta cells. METHODS:Using the radioimmunoassay (RIA), the amount of the PGF2α augmentation of glucose stimulated insulin secession was determined in different conditions, and the confocal laser scanning methods by Fluo-3AM as a fluorescent probe were used to analyze the changes of intracellular calcium in NIT-1β cells. RESULTS:At the lower glucose (0, 5.5 mmol/L), PGF2α (5 μmol/L) failed to potentiate insulin secretion (P>0.05). However, in the presence of 16.5 mmol/L glucose, PGF2α increased significantly in insulin secretion (P<0.05). Neither the AC inhibitor ddA nor the GC inhibitor Ly-83583 altered PGF2α-potentiated insulin secretion in the presence of 16.5 mmol/L (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Otherwise, the PLC inhibitor U-73122 and the PKC blocker calphostin C both counteracted the insulinotropic of PGF2α (P<0.01 or P<0.05). Moreover, exposure of the NIT-1β cells to 5 μmol/L PGF2α induced a rapid increase of intracellular calcium (P<0.01). The inhibitor, ddA or Ly-83583 had no impact on PGF2α-induced elevation of the intracellular calcium (P<0.01). Pretreatment of the cells with U-73122 completely prevented the calcium response induced by PGF2α (P<0.01). CONCLUSION:Efects of PGF2α was independent of cAMP or cGMP, potentiated glucose (16.5 mmol/L)-induced insulin secretion in NIT-1β cells through stimulation of phospholipase C, which subsequently mediated the elevation of intracellular calcium and activation of protein kinase C.  相似文献

AIM:To investigate the neuroprotective effect of tubuloside B, one of the phenylethanoids isolated from the stems of Cistanche salsa, on H2O2-induced injury in PC12 cells.METHODS:PC12 cells were exposed to various doses of tubuloside B for 12 h, then treated with H2O2 at concentration of 100 μmol/L for 24 h. The cell viability was observed with MTT assay. Reactive oxygen species and the mitochondrial membrane potential were measured with laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM). The DNA content and percentage of apoptosis were assayed by DNA agarose gel electrophoresis and flow cytometry. The activation of caspase-3 was detected with the caspase-3 activity assay kit. RESULTS:Following treatment with H2O2 for 24 h, H2O2 induced a significant decrease in cell viability; DNA ladder was observed and apoptosis percentage was as high as 48.0%. Accumulation of intracellular ROS, increase in caspase-3 activity and the decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential as indicated with the decrease of red/green ratios (from 5.97 to 0.41) were detected. However, pretreatment with tubuloside B (1, 10 or 100 mg·L-1) for 12 h exhibited cytoprotective effects in a dose-dependent manner. Tubuloside B obviously enhanced the cell viability, reduced formation of the DNA ladder, and significantly reduced the number of cells labeled with Annexin-V. The percentage of apoptosis/necrosis neurons was significantly decreased to 30.9%, 18.3% and 6.2%, respectively. LSCM showed that the tubuloside B attenuated the accumulation of ROS and the H2O2-induced collapse of mitochondrial membrane potential in PC12 cells. The significant decrease in caspase-3 activity was detected, compared to the H2O2-treated cells at the same time point. CONCLUSION:Tubuloside B has the neuroprotective capacity to antagonize H2O2-induced apoptosis and injury in PC12 cells, indicating it may be useful for treating some neurodegenerative diseases.  相似文献

AIM: To prove the purinergic signaling mechanism of the neuroprotective action of hydrogen sulfide by observing the effects of sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS), a donor of hydrogen sulfide, on the cell viability, intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) and the change of membrane permeability in the PC12 cells injured by adenosine triphosphate (ATP). METHODS: PC12 cells in logarithmic growth phase were randomly divided into 4 groups. In control group, the cells were cultured without ATP treatment. In ATP group, the cells were treated with ATP after cultured for 24 h. In NaHS+ATP group, the cells were incubated with NaHS for 30 min before treated with ATP, and NaHS always existed in the reaction system. In KN-62+ATP group, the cells were pretreated with KN-62 for 30 min, and the other treatments were as the same as those in NaHS+ATP group. The cell viability was assessed by MTT assay. The [Ca2+]i was detected by Fura-2/AM staining. The membrane permeability was observed by staining with fluorescent dye YO-PRO-1.RESULTS: ATP at concentration of 0.3 mmol/L showed no injury effect on the cells. However, the cell viability was dropped gradually in a dose-dependent manner as the ATP at doses of 1, 3, 5 and 10 mmol/L. The decline of cell viability by ATP was obviously reversed by 200 μmol/L of NaHS in the PC12 cells (P<0.05), but exasperated by 800 μmol/L of NaHS (P<0.05). At the same time, ATP evoked the increase in [Ca2+]i in a dose-dependent manner, which was inhibited by NaHS (P<0.05). Furthermore, the YO-PRO-1 uptake induced by ATP in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner was also reduced by NaHS (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Hydrogen sulfide has protective effect on the PC12 cells injured by ATP. The mechanism may be related to the reverse of the increased [Ca2+]i and YO-PRO-1 uptake.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the contribution of diazoxide,an opener of mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K+ channel (MitoKATP),and mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) to change of H2O2 in rat pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) and to unbalance between cell proliferation and apoptosis of PASMCs induced by hypoxia.METHODS: The rat PASMCs were isolated from fresh normal lung tissues and cultured,which were divided into 6 groups,as follows: ① control group;② diazoxide group;③ 5-HD group;④chronic hypoxia group;⑤ chronic hypoxia+diazoxide group;⑥ chronic hypoxia +5-HD group.The relative change in mitochondrial potential was detected with rhodamine fluorescence (R-123) technique.The level of H2O2 in rat PASMCs was detected with chemiluminescence method.The proliferation of rat PASMCs was examined by cell cycle analysis and MTT colorimetric assay.RESULTS: After exposed to diazoxide for 24 h,the intensity of R-123 fluorescence,the level of H2O2 and the A value in normoxic rat PASMCs were significantly increased,and the apoptosis of rat PASMCs was significantly decreased as compared with control group (P<0.05).However,there were no significant changes in these tests after the rat PASMCs had been exposed to 5-HD for 24 h.Chronic hypoxia or chronic hypoxia+diazoxide markedly increased the intensity of R-123 fluorescence,the level of H2O2 and the A value in rat PASMCs,and also markedly decreased the apoptosis of rat PASMCs as compared with control group (P<0.05),and these changes were more significant in chronic hypoxia +diazoxide group than those in chronic hypoxia group (P<0.05).5-HD partly weakened the effect of hypoxia on the intensity of R-123 fluorescence,the level of H2O2,the A value and the apoptosis of rat PASMCs (P<0.05).Significant and positive correlations were found between the intracellular H2O2 and the R-123 fluorescence or the A value.Significant and negative correlation was found between the intracellular H2O2 and the apoptosis of rat PASMCs.CONCLUSION: The results suggest that the opening of MitoKATP followed by a depolarization of ΔΨm can contribute to the increase in the level of H2O2 in rat PASMCs and to the proliferation of rat PASMCs induced by hypoxia.This might be a mechanism of the development of hypoxic pulmonary hypertension.  相似文献

AIM:To evaluate the effect of inhibiting ubiquitin-specific protease 14(USPl4) activity on oxidative stress induced by H2O2 of H9c2 cells.METHODS:The H9c2 cells were incubated with H2O2 at 25 μmol/L for 2 h to establish the oxidative stress injury model.The cells were divided into control group,H2O2 group,IU1 group (25 μmol/L or 50 μmol/L) and IU1+H2O2 group.The H9c2 cells activity was measured by MTS assay.The level of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and cell survival rate were analyzed by flow cytometry assay.The changes of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family related proteins were detected by Western blot.RESULTS:Compared with control group,the cell activity and the viability rate in H2O2 group were decreased (P<0.05),while the intracellular ROS,the protein levels of Bax/Bcl-2,P53,p-ERK1/2,p-JNK and p-P38 were increased (P<0.05).Compared with H2O2 group,the cell activity and the viability rate of the H9c2 cells in IU1+H2O2 group were increased (P<0.05),while the intracellular ROS,the protein levels of Bax/Bcl-2,P53,p-ERK1/2,p-JNK and p-P38 were decreased (P<0.05).CONCLUSION:Inhibition of USPl4 activity reduces the oxidative stress injury of the H9c2 cells.The mechanism may be related to inhibition of the MAPK signaling and down-regulation of apoptosis related proteins.  相似文献

AIM：To explore the role of PI3K/Akt signaling in the anti-apoptotic effect of minocyline (MC) on the apoptosis of PC12 cells induced by sodium nitroprusside (SNP). METHODS：PC12 cells were divided into 4 groups: blank control group, SNP (500 μmol/L) group, MC (10 μmol/L)+SNP group and LY294002+MC+SNP group. The cell viability was observed by MTT assay. The expression of Akt and p-Akt was determined by Western blotting. RESULTS： The viability of the PC12 cells decreased after exposed to 500 μmol/L SNP for 24 h. Meanwhile, MC at concentration of 10 μmol/L significantly blocked the effect of SNP, such as decreasing the cell viability. Pretreatment with LY294002 for 60 min prior to exposure of the PC12 cells to MC and SNP down-regulated the expression of p-Akt induced by SNP. CONCLUSION：Minocycline regulates PI3K/Akt signaling pathway to restrain the apoptosis of PC12 cells induced by SNP.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the synergistic effect of decitabine (DCA) and valproic acid (VPA) on apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase in gastric cancer MGC-803 cells. METHODS: Gastric cancer MGC-803 cells were used in the study and divided into the following groups according to the treatment with different drugs for 72 h: DCA 1.5 μmol/L,DCA 3.0 μmol/L, VPA 1.5 mmol/L, DCA 1.5 μmol/L+VPA 1.5 mmol/L and DCA 3.0 μmol/L+VPA 1.5 mmol/L. The early and late apoptotic rates were detected by annexin V and PI staining. The cell cycle was also determined by flow cytometry. The relative nm23-H1 mRNA expression level was measured by real-time quantitative PCR. RESULTS: The apoptotic rates in VPA 1.5 mmol/L+DCA 1.5 μmol/L group (early: 33.58%±3.88%; late: 31.52%±4.20%) and VPA 1.5 mmol/L+DCA 3.0 μmol/L group (early: 42.61%±4.23%; late: 38.01%±3.86%), the percentages of the cells in G0/G1 phase in VPA 1.5 mmol/L+DCA 1.5 μmol/L group (61.55%±2.38%) and VPA 1.5 mmol/L+DCA 3.0 μmol/L group (66.75%±2.48%), and the relative nm23-H1 mRNA expression levels in VPA 1.5 mmol/L +DCA 1.5 μmol/L group (1.84±0.46) and VPA 1.5 mmol/L+DCA 3.0 μmol/L group (3.02±0.36) were all significantly higher than those in the corresponding concentrations of single drug treatment groups (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: Synergistic effect of VPA and DCA on apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in gastric cancer MGC-803 cells is possibly via inactivation of nm23-H1 gene expression.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the role of Mcl-1 in the G2/M arrest induced by diallyl disulfide (DADS) in leukemic HL-60 cells.METHODS: The inhibitory effect of DADS on human leukemic HL-60 cells was detected by CCK-8 method in vitro. Flow cytometry analysis was employed to observe the cycle arrest in HL-60 cells and the effect of DADS-induced G2/M arrest on HL-60 cells with Mcl-1 gene knockdown by RNAi silencing. The expression of Mcl-1, PCNA and CDK1 in HL-60 cells treated with DADS was determined by Western blotting. The binding of Mcl-1 with PCNA and CDK1 was detected by coimmuno-precipitation. RESULTS: HL-60 cells were treated with DADS at concentration of 15, 30, 60, 120 or 240 μmol/L for 48 h. The inhibition rates of HL-60 cell proliferation were 31.15%, 55.88%, 66.14%, 75.29% and 80.35%, respectively, and gradually enhanced with the increase in the concentration of DADS (P<0.05). Flow cytometry analysis revealed that the proliferation of HL-60 cells was blocked by DADS in the G2/M phase. Treatment with DADS for 24 h and 48 h at concentrations of 60 μmol/L and 120 μmol/L, the percentage of G2/M phase cells increased as compared to the untreated cells (P<0.05). DADS induced arrest of HL-60 cells in G2/M phase in a time- and dose- dependent manner (P<0.05). The results of Western blot analysis indicated that Mcl-1, PCNA and CDK1 in HL-60 cells were significantly reduced after treated with DADS (P<0.05). HL-60 cell cycle progression delayed by silencing Mcl-1 gene with siRNA technique, suggesting that silence of Mcl-1 gene led to G2/M arrest. Compared to the cells treated with DADS only, the percentage of G2/M cells raised in the cells with Mcl-1 gene silencing and treated with DADS (P<0.05), indicating that Mcl-1 gene silencing enhanced the effect of DADS-induced G2/M arrest in HL-60 cells. The binding of Mcl-1 with PCNA and CDK1 was detected by coimmuno-precipitation and the formation of heterodimers was observed, which was decreased after treated with DADS for 4 h.CONCLUSION: DADS inhibits the proliferation of HL-60 cells and induces its G2/M phase arrest. The decreased expression of PCNA is related to inhibiting the proliferation of leukemic cells. Knockdown of Mcl-1 gene enhances the effect of DADS-induced G2/M arrest.  相似文献

AIM: To explore the roles of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) Cl- channels in hydrogen sulfide (H2S)-induced cardioprotection and cell proliferation in H9c2 cells. METHODS: Cobalt chloride (CoCl2) was used to set up the chemical hypoxia-induced injury model in H9c2 cells. Myocardial cell viability was detected by the CCK-8 assay kit. Apoptotic changes in H9c2 cells were observed by using Hoechst 33342 staining and photofluorography. RESULTS: At the concentrations from 400 to 2 000 μmol/L, CoCl2 dose-dependently inhibited cell viability in H9c2 cells. CoCl2 at concentration of 600 μmol/L significantly induced H9c2 cell apoptosis. Sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS) at concentrations from 100 to 400 μmol/L dose-dependently enhanced proliferation in H9c2 cells. NaHS protected H9c2 cells against CoCl2-induced injury, including an increase in cell viability and a decrease in percentage of apoptosis. 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)-benzoic acid (NPPB, 100 μmol/L), an inhibitor of CFTR Cl- channels alone did not damaged H9c2 cells, but considerably blocked the inhibitory effect of NaHS on CoCl2 cytotoxicity. However, NPPB did not antagonize the NaHS-induced antiapoptotic effect and cell proliferation in H9c2 cells. CONCLUSION: CFTR Cl- channels may be involved in the inhibitory effect of H2S on CoCl2-induced cytotoxicity in H9c2 cells.  相似文献

AIM:To study the effect of VEGF on extracellular H2O2 production in HUVECs and the role of H2O2 in the VEGF-induced proliferation. METHODS:HUVECs was stimulated with 500 μg/L VEGF. Products of extracellular H2O2 was detected by H2DCFDA staining. MTT method was used to value the influences of 3×106 U/L catalase and 5-20 mmol/L H2O2 to VEGF function. RESULTS:After treatment for 15 min with VEGF, HUVECs appeared fluorescence, and continued to become stronger, peaked at 45 min then decreased. HUVECs, which was treated simultaneity with VEGF and 3×106 U/L catalase, only appeared very faint fluorescence. The proliferation of HUVECs by VEGF was restrained when treated with 3×106 U/L catalase. The extrinsic H2O2 at concentration of 5-10 mmol/L promoted the proliferation of HUVECs but inhibited the proliferation effect of VEGF on HUVECs (P<0.01). CONCLUSION:These findings indicate that VEGF induces HUVECs to produce extracellular H2O2 and plays role in proliferation, but extrinsic H2O2 restrains VEGF function.  相似文献

AIM: To study the changes of zinc transporter gene expression in MCF-7 cell line exposed to ZnCl2 and TPEN. METHODS: Human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 was exposed to different concentrations of ZnCl2 (0, 50, 100, 150, 200 μmol/L) and TPEN (0, 5, 10, 15 μmol/L), respectively. Twelve hours later, the cell viability was measured by MTT and levels of zinc transporter mRNA by RT-PCR. Zinquin was used to estimate the intracellular zinc concentrations. RESULTS: MCF-7 cells viability rate was significantly decreased when exposed to ZnCl2 (with 150 μmol/L and 200 μmol/L) and TPEN. The intracellular zinc concentration was significantly increased when exposed to ZnCl2 and decreased when exposed to TPEN. ZnT-1 mRNA level was increased along with the increasing concentration of ZnCl2 but decreased when exposed to TPEN. The expressions of ZIP2 and ZIP10 were increased along with the increasing concentration of TPEN. CONCLUSION: ZnT-1 gene expression is induced by zinc supplement and repressed by zinc deficiency. ZIP2 and ZIP10 gene expressions are induced by zinc deficiency.  相似文献
