Objective To investigate the effects of silencing peroxiredoxin-1( Prx-1) gene on the proliferation,reactive oxygen species( ROS) and phosphorylated AKT( p-AKT) protein expression of pulmonary fibroblasts induced by TGF-β1. Methods The cultured MRC-5 pulmonary fibroblasts were randomly divided into 4 groups: control group,TGF-β1group,negative transfection group and experimental group. The Prx-1 siRNA 3 sequences of Prx-1 siRNA( Prx-1 siRNA-209,Prx-1 siRNA-289,Prx-1 siRNA-453) were transfected into the negative transfection group and experimental group by Lipofectamine2000,respectively. After culturing for 48 h,Prx-1 mRNA was detected by real-time PCR to evaluate transfection and Prx-1 siRNA-453 was selected to be used later. Except for the control group,the other three groups were cocultured with TGF-β1( 5 μg/L). Cell proliferation was detected by MTT assay and reactive oxygen species( ROS) level was detected by DCFH-DA assay after 24 h of TGF-β1stimulation. p-AKT expression was detected by Western blotting after45 min of TGF-β1stimulation. Results The OD was respectively 0. 56 ± 0. 07,0. 81 ± 0. 10,0. 88 ± 0. 18 and 1. 16 ±0. 18 in the control group,TGF-β1group,negative transfection group and experimental group,and the levels of ROS were2 922 ± 291,4 348 ± 484,4 660 ± 375 and 5 415 ± 436,respectively. Significant difference were found in the levels of ROS and OD between the experimental group and the other three groups( all P〈0. 01). The p-AKT expression of the control group,TGF-β1group,negative transfection group and experimental group was 0. 45 ± 0. 05,0. 60 ± 0. 07,0. 57 ± 0. 07 and 0. 77 ± 0. 09,respectively. The expression of p-AKT in the experimental group was the highest in all groups( all P〈0. 01). The p-AKT expression of the TGF-β1group was higher than that of the control group( P〈0. 01). Conclusion Silencing Prx-1 gene can enhance the proliferation of pulmonary fibroblasts induced by TGF-β1,and up-regulate the level of ROS and p-AKT prot
