摘要
目的:研究三七皂苷R1(Notoginsenoside R1,NR1)减轻氧化低密度脂蛋白(ox-LDL)诱导人脐静脉内皮细胞(HUVEC)损伤作用机制。方法:预先向体外培养的HUVEC中加入不同浓度的三七皂苷R1 (25、50、100μmol/L)孵育2 h,再加入oxLDL(100μmol/L)干预24 h诱导细胞损伤,以阿伐他汀为阳性对照组; CCK8法检测各组细胞活力,流式细胞术检测细胞凋亡;ELISA检测细胞培养液中肿瘤坏死因子(TNF-α)、白细胞介素6(IL-6)、细胞间黏附分子1(ICAM-1)和血管细胞粘附分子-1(VCAM-1)的含量。qRT-PCR检测细胞内ICAM-1、VCAM-1、ACE2及miR-421的mRNA水平; Western blotting测定细胞ACE2的表达量。结果:与对照组相比,ox-LDL组细胞活力明显下降,细胞上清中TNF-α、IL-6、ICAM-1及VCAM-1的浓度明显升高,细胞凋亡率增高。三七皂苷R1 50、100μmol/L浓度较ox-LDL组能显著上调细胞存活率,显著降低其凋亡率,并下调细胞内TNF-α、IL-6、ICAM-1及VCAM-1的浓度,上调细胞内ACE2及miR-421表达。结论:三七皂苷R1能减轻ox-LDL诱导HUVEC损伤,其机制可能与增加细胞内miR-421表达,从而调节ICAM-1、VCAM-1、ACE2等表达有关。
Objective : To study the molecular mechanism of Notoginsenoside R1( NR1) on HUVEC injury induced by ox-LDL. Methods: After pre-treatment with the different concentrations( 25,50 and 100 μmol/L) of NR1 for 2 h,the cells were exposed to 100 μmol/L ox-LDL.Meanwhile,we used atorvastatin as positive control. The cell viability was measured by CCK8 assay. The contents of inflammatory cytokines,like TNF-α,IL-6,ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 were assayed by ELISA. The mRNA levels of ICAM-1,VCAM-1,ACE2 and miR-181 b were determined by qRT-PCR and the protein level of ACE2 was determined by western blotting. Results: ox-LDL induced the apoptosis and the inflammatory cytokines secretion in HUVEC. NR1 increased the cell livability and decreased apoptosis index,meanwhile down-regulated the expressions of TNF-α,IL-6,ICAM-1 and VCAM-1,especially at the concentrations of 50 and 100 μmol/L. Furthermore,NR1 regulated miR-421/ACE2 signaling in HUVEC. Conclusions: NR1 could reduce the HUVEC injury induced by ox-LDL,which is partly related to upregulation of miR-421 so as to reduce the inflammatory cytokines induced by ox-LDL.
