目的 灯盏花乙素(SCU)可拮抗心肌IR损伤,但SCU是否通过细胞外信号调节激酶(ERK1/2)通路拮抗IR所致血管内皮细胞损伤尚不清楚。文中探讨SCU在缺氧-复氧(HR)诱导的人心脏微血管内皮细胞(HCMEC)损伤中的作用及对ERK1/2信号通路的影响。方法 体外培养的HCMEC分别进行正常培养和缺氧12 h-复氧12 h建立IR模型(HR)处理。正常培养条件下,将HCMEC分为正常对照组、DMSO组、SCU 1μmol/L组和SCU 10μmol/L组。给予HCMEC IR损伤处理后,分为空白对照组、HR模型组、HR+DMSO组、HR+SCU 1μmol/L组和HR+SCU 10μmol/L组。将HCMEC与SCU或DMSO预孵育2 h后行HR处理。采用MTT法和锥虫蓝染色检测细胞存活率,并检测HCMEC的丙二醛(MDA)浓度。Western blot检测p-ERK1/2、ERK2和GAPDH蛋白表达情况。结果 MTT检测结果显示,与正常对照组细胞存活率(100%)比较,SCU 1μmol/L组和SCU 10μmol/L组[(110.40±2.34)%和(122±1.25)%]均增加(P〈0.05);与空白对照组细胞活力(100%)比较,HR模型组[(68.00±4.06)%]下降(P〈0.05),与HR模型组细胞存活率比较,HR+SCU 1μmol/L组和HR+SCU 10μmol/L组[(90.53±3.67)%、(92.04±2.32)%]增加(P〈0.05)。锥虫蓝染色显示,与正常对照组细胞活力[(90.06±1.85)%]比较,SCU 10μmol/L组[(96.78±2.01)%]增加(P〈0.05);与空白对照组[(91.83±2.34)%]比较,HR模型组细胞存活率[(73.72±4.91)%]下降(P〈0.01),与HR模型组比较,HR+SCU 10μmol/L组细胞存活率[(87.59±2.64)%]增加(P〈0.05)。与空白对照组比较,HR模型组、HR+DMSO组MDA明显增加(P〈0.01);与HR模型组比较,HR+SCU 1μmol/L组和HR+SCU 10μmol/L组MDA含量减少(P〈0.05)。与空白对照组比较,HR模型组p-ERK1/2蛋白表达明显降低(P〈0.01);与HR模型组比较,HR+SCU 10μmol/L组p-ERK1/2蛋白表达明显增加(P〈0.01)。结论 HR损伤导致HCMEC细胞活力下降、MDA增加和p-ERK1/2?
Objective Scutellarin (SCU) , a Chinese tra-ditional medicine, has a protective effect against ischemia-reperfusion (IR) induced myocardial injury, but it is not yet clear whether SCU acts against vascular endothelial IR injury via extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2). The aim of this study was to explore the effect of SCU on hypoxia-reoxygenation ( HR) -induced injury to human cardiac microvascular endothelial cells ( HCMECs) and its influence on the ERK1/2 signaling pathway. Methods HCMECs were subjected to normal culture and divided into a normal control, a DMSO,an SCU 1 jjimol/L, and an SCU 10 jjimol/L group. The model of HR injury was established by exposing the HC-MECs to 12-h hypoxia and 12-h reoxygenation after treated with DMSO or SCU at 1 and 10 jjimol/L for 2 hours. Then, the survival rate of the HCMECs was detected by MTT and trypan blue staining, the concentration of malondialdehyde (MDA) in the cells measured, and the expressions of the p-ERKl/2, ERK2 and GAPDH proteins determined by Western blot. Results SCU at 1 and 10 jjimol/L significantly increased the survival rate of the normally cultured HCMECs ([ 110.40±2.34] and [ 122.00± 1.25] %) as compared with that of the normal control ( 100%) (P〈0.05) , while HR injury markedly decreased the vitality of the HCMECs ( [68.00±4.06] %) in comparison with that of the blank control ( 100%) (P〈0.05) . The survival rate of the HCMECs was remarkably higher in the HR+SCU 1 jjimol/L and HR+SCU 10 jjimol/L groups than in the HR model group ( [90.53±3.67] and [92.04±2.32] ,and sowas their vitality in the SCU 10 jjimol/L group than in the normal control ( [96.78±2.01] 仍 [9 0 .06±1.85] % ,P〈0 .0 1 ) , wtdle their survival rate was significantly lower in the HR model than in the blank control ([ 73.72±4.91 ] 仍 [91.83±2.34] % , P〈0 .0 1) and re-markably higher in the SCU 10 jjimol/L ( [87.59±2.64] %) than in the HR model group (P〈0.0
