摘要

Aims

This study was to investigate the effect of high glucose (HG) on TGF-尾1 expression and the underlying mechanisms in bone marrow stem cells.

Main methods

Rat bone marrow multipotent adult progenitor cells (MAPCs) were cultured in normal (5.5 mM d-glucose) and HG media (25.5 mM d-glucose) for up to 14 days. l-Glucose (20 mM plus 5.5 mM d-glucose) was used as high osmolarity control. TGF-尾1 expression was evaluated using quantitative RT-PCR, ELISA, and immunofluorescence staining for its mRNA and protein level in the cells and in the conditioned media. The expression and activation of ERK1/2 and STAT3 were examined in MAPCs cultured in HG media with Western blot.

Key findings

Measurable level of TGF-尾1 was detected in the cells cultured in normal media. TGF-尾1 expression was substantially increased in MAPCs after 36 h of culture in HG media with over 20-fold increase in the mRNA and 5-fold increase in protein level over control. Interestingly, ERK1/2 phosphorylation was significantly increased in MAPCs cultured in HG media, while in STAT3 (Tyr705), not STAT3 (Ser727), phosphorylation was dramatically decreased. Treatment of cells with the specific MEK1 inhibitor PD98059 or U0126 suppressed ERK1/2 phosphorylation and TGF-尾1 expression, and completely restored the level of STAT3 (Tyr705) phosphorylation in MAPCs cultured in HG media. Treatment of the cells with the specific STAT3 phosphorylation inhibitor AG490 significantly blocked STAT3 (Tyr705) phosphorylation and increased TGF-尾1 expression without change in ERK1/2 phosphorylation in MPACs.

Significance

HG increased TGF-尾1 expression through inhibition of STAT3 (Tyr705) by enhanced ERK1/2 signaling in MAPCs.
