中文摘要：

目的观察黄芪多糖（APS）对TLR-NF-κB信号转导通路的影响,探讨其对高血压病患者血清损伤的血管内皮细胞的保护机制。方法用10%的高血压病患者及健康人血清干预人脐静脉内皮细胞（HUVEC-C）24h,实时荧光定量（PCR）法检测TLR4mRNA表达。不同浓度的APS干预脂多糖（LPS）诱导的HUVEC-CTLR4表达（24h）及核转录因子（NF-κB）活化（2h）,PCR法检测TLR4mRNA及NF-κBmRNA的表达,免疫印迹（Western-blot）技术检测TLR4蛋白及NF-κB蛋白的表达。结果血清作用24h后,高血压病组TLR4mRNA的表达较健康组增高（P〈0.01）。APS可呈剂量依赖性减少LPS诱导的TLR4mRNA高表达,抑制LPS诱导的TLR4蛋白高表达和IκBα蛋白的降解（P〈0.05,P〈0.01,P〈0.001）。结论 TLR-NF-κB信号途径介导的炎症反应和免疫紊乱是高血压病血管内皮损伤的机制之一,APS可通过抑制其表达保护血管内皮细胞损伤。

英文摘要：

Objective To investigate the effects of APS on TLR4、 NF-κB expression and signal pathway in vascular endothelial cells injured by hypertension patients’ blood.Methods Human umbilical vein endothelial cells（HUVEC-Cs）were intervened by 10% serum of hypertension patient or healthy human for 24 h.TLR4mRNA expression in HUVEC-Cs was detected by real time PCR.After lipopolysaccharide（LPS）activated HUVEC-Cs were effected by different dosages APS,TLR4 and NF-κB mRNA were detected by real time PCR,TLR4 and NF-κB protein were detected by Western blot.Results After the serum acted on the HUVEC-Cs for 24 h,TLR4mRNA expression was more increased in the hypertension disease group than the healthy group（P〈0.01）.APS showed the ability of reducing TLR4mRNA expression,inhibiting TLR4 protein expression and suppressing IκB protein degeneration in LPS activated HUVEC-Cs in a dose-dependent manner（P〈0.05,P〈0.01,P〈0.001）.Conclusion Inflammatory reaction and immunity disorder initiated by TLR-NF-κB signal pathway is one of the influencing mechanisms in the damage of vascular endothelial cells of hypertension disease.APS can reduce the damage.
