ABSTRACT
Objective: To investigate the effect of dimethyl dicarboxylate biphenyl ( DDB) on the proliferation, apoptosis and PPARγ expression of hepatic stellate cells. Methods: HSC-T6 cells were cultured in 96-well plates and 6-well plates, and after the 24-hour drug treatment, the influence of DDB on the proliferation and apoptosis of HSC-T6 were detected respectively by CCK-8 kit and flow cytometry. Quantitative real-time-PCR ( Q-PCR) and Western blotting were adopted to determine the effect of DDB on the PPARγmRNA level and the protein expression in HSC-T6 cells. Results:DDB obviously inhibited the proliferation of HSC-T6 (P<0. 05) and significantly promoted the apoptosis of HSC-T6 (P<0. 05) at the experimental concentration (8-64 μmol·L-1) when compared with the control group (0 μmol·L-1). The expression of PPARγ in drug-treated HSC-T6 was notably improved. Conclusion: DDB can inhibit the proliferation and promote the apoptosis of HSC-T6 cells by up-regulating the expression of PPARγ.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effect of miR-154 on the apoptosis of hepatic stellate cells (HSC-T6). Methods:Hepat-ic stellate cells (HSC-T6) were transfected with miR-154 mimics and miR-154 inhibitor, and the cells were trandfected with mimics NC and inhibitor NC as the negative control. The effects of miR-154 on the proliferation of HSC-T6 were detected at different time points by CCK-8. A flow cytometry with double staining of Annexin and PI was used to detect the cell cycle and apoptosis rate of HSC-T6. Results:The proliferation ability of the cells was increased,the apoptosis rate was decreased significantly, and the proportion of cells in G0/G1 phase were decreased, and those in G2/M phase were increased significantly after transfected with miR-154 mimics. The proliferation ability of the cells was decreased,the apoptosis rate was increased significantly, and the proportion of cells in G0/G1 phase were increased, and those in G2/M phase were decreased significantly after transfected with miR-154 inhibitor. Conclusion:MiR-154 can promote the proliferation of HSC-T6 and inhibit the apoptosis of HSC-T6.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To summarize the single nucleotide polymorphisms ( SNPs) in ABCC2 and the effect on clinical drug appli-cation. Methods:According to the related articles published in domestic and abroad, the correlation between the single nucleotide pol-ymorphisms in ABCC2 and drug responses was classified and summarized. Results:ABCC2 translocator played an important role in the transmembrane transport of many physiological compounds and exogenous compounds. Numerous studies have demonstrated that the single nucleotide polymorphisms in ABCC2 possibly affected the expression or activity of ABCC2, which leading to the variation in the absorption, distribution and excretion of certain drugs and toxicants. However, the limitation and controversy were still emerged in the results. Conclusion:The influence of ABCC2 single nucleotide polymorphisms on clinical drug application shows significantly referen-tial value for the guidance of medication and the evaluation of efficacy, however, it can not be used as the only indicator yet.
