Abstract: | AIM: To investigate the effects of aliskiren on the injury of SH-SY5Y cells induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) and its possible mechanisms. METHODS: The SH-SY5Y cells were randomly divided into control group, OGD group and aliskiren (5.0, 10.0 and 20.0 μmol/L) groups. The cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay. The levels of excitatory amino acid transporter 2 (EAAT2/GLT-1), EAAT3/EAAC1, EAAT4, endothelin-1 (ET-1) and S100 calcium-binding protein β subunit (S-100β) in the SH-SY5Y cells were detected by ELISA. The morphological changes of the cells were observed by Hoechst 33258 staining. Meanwhile, the content of lactic acid (LD) and activity of Na+-K+-ATPase were also analyzed. RESULTS: The viability of SH-SY5Y cells was not more than 60% after OGD injury for 4 h, so the appropriate time for OGD injury was 4 h. Compared with control group, the protein levels of GLT-1, EAAC1 and EAAT4 in the SH-SY5Y cells of OGD group were significantly decreased (P<0.05), but the protein levels of ET-1 and S-100β were significantly increased (P<0.05). Compared with OGD group, treatment with aliskiren dose-dependently increased the protein levels of GLT-1, EAAC1 and EAAT4 in the SH-SY5Y cells, but decreases in the levels of ET-1 and S-100β were observed (P<0.05). The results of Hochest 33258 staining showed that aliskiren significantly reduced the apoptosis of SH-SY5Y cells. Compared with control group, a significant increase in the content of LD (P<0.05) and a significant decrease in Na+-K+-ATPase activity (P<0.05) were found in the SH-SY5Y cells of OGD group. Compared with OGD group, aliskiren dose-dependently decreased the content of LD, but increased the Na+-K+-ATPase activity in the SH-SY5Y cells (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Aliskiren has good neuroprotective effects on SH-SY5Y cells after OGD injury. The underlying mechanisms may be associated with the increases in the protein levels of GLT-1, EAAC1 and EAAT4, the enhancement of Na+-K+-ATPase activity, and the decreases in the levels of ET-1 and S-100β and the content of LD. |
