为研究二苯乙烯苷对过氧化氢(H2O2)诱导人脐静脉内皮细胞凋亡的影响并初步探讨二苯乙烯苷抗凋亡的可能机制,采用不同浓度H2O2和二苯乙烯苷处理内皮细胞24 h,以MTT法检测细胞生长活力、Hoechst33258染色观察细胞形态、流式细胞仪检测凋亡率等方法筛选造模内皮细胞凋亡的H2O2浓度和二苯乙烯苷最佳的抗内皮细胞凋亡作用浓度.RT-PCR、Western-blot分别检测Caspase-3、PARP mRNA及蛋白质的表达.结果发现,与空白对照组相比,300μmol/L H2O2作用后,内皮细胞增殖明显受到抑制,Hoechst33258染色可见大量凋亡细胞,细胞凋亡率显著增加,流式细胞仪检测出明显的凋亡峰,Caspase-3和多聚腺苷酸二磷酸核糖基聚合酶(PARP)的表达量显著增加.经二苯乙烯苷处理后,随着二苯乙烯苷浓度增加,细胞的增殖率随之增加,凋亡细胞数减少,凋亡率逐渐降低,与H2O2组比较,10μmol/L的二苯乙烯苷能够显著提高细胞增殖率,降低细胞凋亡率,并显著减少Caspase-3和PARP表达.以上结果表明,二苯乙烯苷能够抑制由H2O2诱导的人脐静脉内皮细胞凋亡,增加细胞生长活性,降低细胞凋亡率,其作用机制可能与下调Caspase-3和多聚腺苷酸二磷酸核糖基聚合酶(PARP)的表达有关. 相似文献

Abstract: We have examined the effect of elevating cyclic AMP levels on cytokine-mediated enhancement of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) gene expression by astrocytes. Treatment of astrocytes with the cyclic AMP mimetic dibutyryl-cyclic AMP, or the agonists norepinephrine, forskolin, prostaglandin E2 , and cholera toxin alone had no effect on ICAM-1 or VCAM-1 mRNA gene expression. However, elevating cyclic AMP levels within the cells by these agents suppressed interleukin-1β- and tumor necrosis factor-α-induced adhesion molecule expression at both the mRNA and protein levels. The phosphodiesterase type IV inhibitor, rolipram, was able to potentiate the inhibitory effect of forskolin on ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 gene expression. Inhibition of tumor necrosis factor-α-induced VCAM-1 mRNA levels by forskolin was partially due to enhanced degradation of VCAM-1 message, whereas the decay rates of tumor necrosis factor-α-induced ICAM-1 message and interleukin-1β-induced ICAM-1/VCAM-1 message were not affected by forskolin treatment. These results demonstrate that the pathways used by interleukin-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α to induce adhesion molecule expression are antagonized by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase-mediated signaling pathways. 相似文献

Intermittent hypoxia (IH), the key property of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), is closely associated with endothelial dysfunction. Endothelial-cell-specific molecule-1 (ESM-1, Endocan) is a novel, reported molecule linked to endothelial dysfunction. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of IH on ESM-1 expression and the role of ESM-1 in endothelial dysfunction. We found that serum concentration of ESM-1, inter-cellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) is significantly higher in patients with OSA than healthy volunteers (p < 0.01). The expression of ESM-1, hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was significantly increased in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) by treated IH in a time-dependent manner. HIF-1α short hairpin RNA and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) inhibitor inhibited the expression of ESM-1 in HUVECs. ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 expressions were significantly enhanced under IH status, accompanied by increased monocyte–endothelial cell adhesion rate ( p < 0.001). Accordingly, ESM-1 silencing decreased the expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in HUVECs, whereas ESM-1 treatment significantly enhanced ICAM-1 expression accompanied by increasing adhesion ability. ESM-1 is significantly upregulated by the HIF-1α/VEGF pathway under IH in endothelial cells, playing a critical role in enhancing adhesion between monocytes and endothelial cells, which might be a potential target for IH-induced endothelial dysfunction. 相似文献

Adhesion and transendothelial migration of leukocytes into the vascular wall is a crucial step in atherogenesis. Expression of cell adhesion molecules by endothelial cells plays a leading role in this process. We investigated the effect of simvastatin, an inhibitor of HMG-CoA reductase administered to reduce plasma levels of LDL-cholesterol, on the expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and intracellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) by human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) stimulated with tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha). We found the expression to be significantly inhibited by the drug in a time and concentration-dependent manner and to a greater extent in the case of VCAM-1 as compared with ICAM-1. In TNFalpha-stimulated HUVEC, simvastatin decreased VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 mRNA levels, inhibited TNFalpha-induced activation of nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) and enhanced expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha). These effects were associated with reduction of adherence of monocytes and lymphocytes to HUVEC. The present findings suggest that the benefits of statins in vascular disease may include the inhibition of expression of VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 through effects on NF-kappaB. 相似文献

This study tested the hypothesis that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) [1,25(OH)(2)D(3)] plays a role in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) cultures. HUVEC were incubated with 10 or 100 nM 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) for 24 h, in the absence or presence of 40 ng/ml tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) or 2 ng/ml interleukin-1alpha (IL-1alpha). 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) did not affect HUVEC viability and proliferation, while TNF-alpha, alone or in combination with the hormone, significantly inhibited HUVEC viability. [(3)H]thymidine incorporation in HUVEC treated with TNF-alpha or IL-1alpha significantly decreased, in the absence or in the presence of the hormone, while the levels of vitamin D receptor markedly increased in the presence of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) alone or associated with TNF-alpha or IL-1alpha, in comparison to the control. The noteworthy increase in protein levels of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) induced by TNF-alpha was significantly decreased after incubation of the cells with 1,25(OH)(2)D(3), this effect not being seen on E-selectin expression. Neither apoptosis nor nuclear translocation of NF-kappaB, induced in HUVEC by TNF-alpha was influenced by 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) treatment. 相似文献

Diabetes mellitus is associated with an increased prevalence of endothelial dysfunction and development of atherosclerotic vascular diseases. We demonstrate here that hyperglycemia results in the expression of adhesion molecules on endothelial cells in vitro. Incubation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) in a culture medium with 11.0 mM, 16.5 mM and 22.0 mM glucose concentrations induced the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and endothelial-leukocyte adhesion molecule-1 (ELAM-1). This effect was detectable after 24 h incubation of HUVEC with a high glucose concentration. The effect of high glucose concentration on TNF-alpha induced expression of ELAM-1, VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 was negligible, if at all. These results show that even a short-term exposure of endothelial cells (ECs) to high glucose concentration leads to their activation associated with increased expression of adhesion molecules such as ELAM-1, VCAM-1 and ICAM-1. 相似文献

Adhesion and migration of leukocytes into the surrounding tissues is a crucial step in inflammation, immunity, and atherogenesis. Expression of cell adhesion molecules by endothelial cells plays a leading role in this process. Butyrate, a natural short-chain fatty acid produced by bacterial fermentation of dietary fiber, has been attributed with anti-inflammatory activity in inflammatory bowel disease. Butyrate in vitro is active in colonocytes and several other cell types. We have studied the effect of butyrate on expression of endothelial leukocyte adhesion molecules by cytokine-stimulated human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). Pretreatment of HUVEC with butyrate-inhibited tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha)-induced expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and intracellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) in a time and concentration-dependent manner. Butyrate at 10 mM/L inhibited interleukin-1 (IL-1)-stimulated VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 expression. The effect of butyrate on cytokine-stimulated VCAM-1 expression was more pronounced than in the case of ICAM-1. Butyrate decreased TNFalpha-induced expression of mRNA for VCAM-1 and ICAM-1. Suppressed expression of VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 was associated with reduced adherence of monocytes and lymphocytes to cytokine-stimulated HUVEC. Butyrate inhibited TNFalpha-induced activation of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) in HUVEC. Finally, butyrate enhanced peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPARalpha) expression in HUVEC. These results demonstrate that butyrate may have anti-inflammatory properties not only in colonocytes but also in endothelial cells. The anti-inflammatory and (perhaps) antiatherogenic properties of butyrate may partly be attributed to an effect on activation of NF-kappaB and PPARalpha and to the associated expression of VCAM-1 and ICAM-1. The present findings support further investigations on the therapeutic benefits of butyrate in several pathological events involving leukocyte recruitment. 相似文献

Sauchinone, a diastereomeric lignan isolated from the roots of Saururus chinensis (LOUR.) BAILL. (Saururaceae), is reported to exert a variety of biological activities such as hepatoprotective, anti-inflammatory actions and inhibitory effects on bone resorption. In this study, we investigated the effect of sauchinone in suppressing cell adhesion molecules such as vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression in high glucose stimulated human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). Sauchinone inhibited the phosphorylation and degradation of IκB-α, as well as the nuclear translocation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) p65 caused by the stimulation of high glucose. In addition, sauchinone induced heme oxygenase (HO)-1 expression through nuclear translocation of nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 in HUVEC. The effects of sauchinone on the high glucose-induced expression of VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 and nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65 were partially reversed by transfection of the cells with HO-1 siRNA. These findings suggest that sauchinone-induced HO-1 expression plays a key role in the vascular protective effects of sauchinone in HUVEC. 相似文献
