RESUMO

Objective:To observe the role of neuroinflammation in cognitive dysfunction induced by 1-bromopropane (1-BP) in rats.Methods:Male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group, 1-BP group, pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate(PDTC)+ 1-BP group and PDTC group, with 15 rats in each group. Rats in 1-BP group and PDTC+ 1-BP group were given 800 mg / kg 1-BP by gavage, and rats in control group and PDTC group were given equal volume corn oil once a day for 12 days; rats in PDTC group and PDTC+ 1-BP group were intraperitoneally injected with 100 mg / kg PDTC 30 minutes after gavage, while rats in control group and 1-BP group were injected with equal volume of normal saline once a day for 12 days.From the 7th to 12th day of the experiment, ten rats in each group were randomly selected and subjected to Morris water maze test for detect the cognitive function. In the positioning navigation test, the learning ability of rats was evaluated by the escape latency and total swimming distance respectively. In the space exploration experiment, the memory ability of experimental animals was evaluated by the number of times crossing the target platform. After the experiment, ten rats were sacrificed, the cerebral prefrontal cortex was harvested. The cytosolic and nuclear NF-κB expression and phosphorylation were detected by Western blot, the mRNA levels of TNF-α and IL-1β were detected by qRT-PCR. After cardiac perfusion fixation, the brains of 5 rats were taken to make frozen sections for immunohistochemical staining and Nissl staining. SPSS 20.0 software was used for statistical analysis, repetitive measurement deviation analysis was used for the analysis of the swimming distance and the escape latency in positioning navigation test, One-way ANOVA was used for the analysis of the number of times crossed the target platform in spatial probe test and other data. Tukey's test was used for Post hoc comparison.Results:The results of Morris water maze showed that there was significant interaction between group and training time in the total swimming distance of rats in the four groups ( F=3.762, P<0.05). Simple effect analysis showed that the total swimming distance of 1-BP group in 1-4 days were longer than those of control group (all P<0.05), while the total swimming distance of PDTC+ 1-BP group in 1-4 days were shorter than those of 1-BP group (all P<0.05). There was significant interaction between group and training time in the escape latency among the four groups ( F=6.541, P<0.01). The escape latencies of 1-BP group in 1-4 days were longer than those of control group (all P<0.05), while the escape latencies of PDTC+ 1-BP group in 1-4 days were shorter than those of 1-BP group (all P<0.05). The results of space exploration experiment showed that there was significant difference in the number of crossing the platform among the four groups ( F=75.333, P<0.01). The number of crossing the platform (1.08±0.29) in 1-BP group was lower than that in the control (3.35±0.05) ( P<0.01). The number of crossing the platform (1.95±0.26) in PDTC+ 1-BP group was higher than that in 1-BP group ( P<0.01). It had significant difference both in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus of the NF-κB protein level in prefrontal cortex among rats of the four groups ( F=20.865, 23.877, both P<0.01). The levels of NF-κB in cytoplasm and nucleus of rats in 1-BP group were both higher than those in control group (cytoplasm: (177.3±32.1)%, (100.0±8.4)%, P<0.01; nucleus: ( 173.2±27.1)%, (100.0±8.4)%, P<0.01). While the levels of NF-κB in cytoplasm and nucleus of 1-BP+ PDTC group were both lower than those of 1-BP group (cytoplasm: (148.7±22.0)%, (177.3±32.1)%, P<0.01; nucleus: (149.7±18.8)%, (173.2±27.1)%, P<0.01). The results of qRT-PCR showed that there were significant differences in the mRNA levels of TNF-α and IL-1β in the prefrontal cortex among the four groups ( F=17.464, 17.382, both P<0.01). The levels of TNF-α and IL-1β mRNA in 1-BP group were higher than those in control group (both P<0.05), and the levels of TNF-α and IL-1β mRNA in PDTC+ 1-BP group were both lower than those in 1-BP group (both P<0.05). The results of immunohistochemistry showed that compared with the control group, the number of microglia and astrocytes in the 1-BP group increased (microglia: (158.30±9.68), (110.20±16.30), P<0.05; astrocytes: (122.76±4.35), (80.24±6.96), P<0.05), and the morphology was also activated, with light staining and reduced number of Nissl bodies in neurons.The number of microglia and astrocytes in PDTC + 1-BP group was lower than that in 1-BP group (microglia: (131.70±14.67), (158.30±9.68), P<0.05; astrocytes: (101.54±4.55), (122.76±4.35), P<0.05), and the Nissl body staining of neurons was significantly deepened. Conclusion:NF-κB signaling pathway might be the key mechanism of 1-BP neurotoxicity. PDTC intervention could significantly improve the neuroinflammatory response and behavioral disorders of experimental animals intoxicated with 1-BP.

RESUMO

Objective To observe the effect of signal transduction pathway of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) on Nod-like receptor family, pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome and pyroptosis in rats with acute lung injury induced (ALI) by phosgene. Methods The rats were randomly(random number) divided into 3 groups: air exposure control group, phosgene exposure group and PDTC group with phosgene exposure after 100 mg/kg pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) administration. The specimens of serum, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and lung tissue were collected 6 h after exposure. Morphological changes were observed by HE staining. The expression of NLRP3 in the lung of three groups was detected by immunohistochemistry. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect the expressions of NF-κB p65, NLRP3, ASC and caspase-1 mRNA in the lung tissue. NF-κB p65,NLRP3, ASC and caspase-1 protein levels in the lung tissue were quantified by Western blot. The concentrations of IL-1β, IL-18 and IL-33 in the serum and BALF were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Pyroptosis was observed by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling assay (TUNEL). Results The model of phosgene-induced ALI was successfully established in rats. Morphological changes with inflammatory cell infiltration were observed in the lung tissues of phosgene group, in which NLRP3 positive cells also could be observed by immunohistochemical staining. The mRNA expressions and protein levels of NF-κB p65, NLRP3 and caspase-1 in lung tissues were significantly increased (P<0.05) in phosgene group, compared with air control group. The mRNA expressions and protein levels of NF-κB p65,NLRP3 and caspase-1 in lung tissues were significantly decreased (P<0.05) in PDTC group, compared with phosgene group. The IL-1β,IL-18 and IL-33 protein levels in serum and BALF were significantly increased (P<0.05) in phosgene group, compared with air control group. The IL-1β,IL-18 and IL-33 protein levels in serum and BALF were significantly decreased (P<0.05) in PDTC group, compared with phosgene group. TUNEL results showed that pyroptosis in the lung tissue obviously increased in phosgene group, while decreased in PDTC group. Conclusions NLRP3 inflammasome and lung cell pyroptosis were induced through NF-kB signal transduction pathway in rats with acute lung injury caused by phosgene inhalation. Blockade of NF-κB can alleviate acute lung injury by down-regulating the expression of NLRP3 inflammasome to inhibit pyroptosis.

RESUMO

Aim To determine the function of nuclear factor-κB ( NF-κB ) in immunological liver injury of rat model and its effect on CYP2E1 expression, content and metabolic activity. Methods The immunological liver injury rat model was prepared by injection of Ba-cillus Calmette Guérin ( BCG,125 mg · kg-1 ) for 14 days. The hepatic tissue injury was revealed by hema-toxylin and eosin ( HE ) method and serum concentra-tion of alanine aminotransferase( ALT) , aspartate ami-notransferase ( AST ) respectively. CYP450 total con-tent in hepatic homogenate was determined by spectro-photography. The expression of CYP2E1 protein was detected by Western blot analysis. The enzyme kinetics of CYP2 E1 probe drug chlorzoxazone was evaluated by high-performance liquid chromatography ( HPLC ) as-say. Results The results showed that BCG-pretreat-ment ( 125 mg · kg-1 ) significantly increased the weight of liver and spleen, serum levels of ALT and AST(P<0. 01) , and decreased CYP2E1 expression, content and metabolic activity ( P <0. 05 ) . Adminis-tration of ammonium pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) (50, 100, 200 mg·kg-1) reversed the a-bove hepatic injury stimulated by BCG in vivo. Moreo-ver, PDTC dose-dependently inhibited the down regu-lation of CYP2 E1 ( P<0. 05 ) . Conclusion Passiva-tion of NF-κB can inhibit the down regulation of CYP2 E1 in liver tissue of immunological liver injury rats;NF-κB may be involved in CYP2 E1 down-regula-tion.

RESUMO

Aim To investigate the change of molecu-lar expression related to coagulation and fibrinolysis in human microvascular endothelial cells ( HMEC ) in-duced by activated complement alternative pathway and effect of pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate ( PDTC ) and res-veratrol on intervention. Methods Normal human se-rum was activated by cobra venom factor ( CVF) . After exposure of HMEC to activated complement for various times, supernatant was removed and assayed for ex-pressions of P-selectin, VWF, t-PA, PAI-1, TF, TM, and NO by using reagent kits. The expressions of the above molecules in HMEC pretreated with PDTC and resveratrol were also investigated. Results P-selectin and VWF were rapidly released by endothelial cells and the expression reached the peak at the time point of 15 min. The expressions of t-PA, PAI-1, and TF were continuously upregulated, whereas NO and TM were decreased. PDTC and resveratrol inhibited the upregulation of P-selectin, VWF, t-PA, PAI-1 and TF, and intervened the downregulation of NO. Res-veratrol further downregulated the expression of TM. Conclusion Activated complement alternative path-way can influence the expression of molecules related to coagulation and fibrinolysis in HMEC, and PDTC and resveratrol can affect this change.

RESUMO

REGγ is a proteasome activator that facilitates the degradation of small peptides. Abnormally high expression of REGγ has been observed in thyroid carcinomas. The purpose of the present study was to explore the role of REGγ in poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma (PDTC). For this purpose, small interfering RNA (siRNA) was introduced to down-regulate the level of REGγ in the PDTC cell line SW579. Down-regulation of REGγ at the mRNA and protein levels was confirmed by RT-PCR and Western blot analyses. FACS analysis revealed cell cycle arrest at the G1/S transition, the MTT assay showed inhibition of cell proliferation, and the Transwell assay showed restricted cell invasion. Furthermore, the expression of the p21 protein was increased, the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) protein decreased, and the expression of the p27 protein was unchanged as shown by Western blot analyses. REGγ plays a critical role in the cell cycle, proliferation and invasion of SW579 cells. The alteration of p21 and PCNA proteins related to the down-regulation of REGγ suggests that p21 and PCNA participate in the process of REGγ regulation of cell cycle progression and cell proliferation. Thus, targeting REGγ has a therapeutic potential in the management of PDTC patients.

RESUMO

Objective To investigate effect of PDTC on the NF-κB activation and the expression of inflammatory cytokines in THP-1 macrophages induced by rPVL.Methods The study was divided into three groups:PBS-treated control group,rPVL-treated group and PDTC group which was given 100 μmol/L PDTC at 60 min before rPVL exposure.Immunohistochemistry method was used to test the translocation of NF-κB protein; the expression of NF-κB and IκB protein was analyzed by Western blot; RT-PCR and ELISA was performed to test expression of IL-8 and L-6 in THP-1 macrophages.Results Compared with rPVL-treated group,the activation of NF-κB and the expression of IL-8 and L-6 in PDTC group was significantly decreased.The protein secretions of IL-8 and IL-6 were reduced to 6.78 ng/ml,3.88 ng/ml,receptively(P <0.05).Conclusion The inhibitor of NF-κB,PDTC,could significantly decrease the secretion of pro-inflammatory in THP-1 macrophages by rPVL,and it suggested that PDTC played an important role in protecting tissues from damage induced by rPVL.

RESUMO

Objective To study the relationship among apoptosis,NF-KB activation and uPA expres- sion in human colon carcinoma cell line HCTll6 induced by 5-fluorouracil,and to observe the effect of in- hibiting activity of NF-KB by PDTC on apoptosis as well as expression of uPA.Methods Cell apoptosis was analysed by Annexin V-FITC.Fluctuation of NF-KB and uPA was detected by semi-quantitative immuno- histochemistry.Results 5-fluorouracil could induce apoptosis and activate NF-KB.PDTC could significantly increase the apoptosis and suppress the activation of NF-KB induced by 5-fluorouracil.There was a positive correlation between the changes of uPA and NF-KB.Conclusion 5-fluorouracil could induce apoptosis,ac- tivate NF-KB and up-regulate expression of uPA of HCT116 cells.The mechanism of enhanced apoptosis by PDTC may be related to suppressing activation of NF-?B and down-regulating expression of uPA.

RESUMO

Objective To learn the influence of density of LPS and LPS + PDTC on the concentration of IL -1? of endometrial cells. Method We used LPS and LPS + PDTC to intervene normal and endometriosis patients, and obtain cultivate supernatant,then detected the concentration density of IL - 1?with ELISA. Result The of IL - 1? had no statistical signifiance in normal endometrial cells, but there was notable change in eutopic and ectopic endometrial cells. Conclusion Activating and refrainning NF -?B through LPS and PDTC, then decteting the change of the ancentration of IL - 1?, understanding the relation between NF -?B and endometriosis are all important in pathogenesis.

RESUMO

Background and purpose: NF-?B is activated by tumor necrosis factor,some chemotherapeutic agents,and ionizing radiation.The activation of NF-?B could result in inhibition of apoptosis.NF-?B,regulated by PDTC(pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate),is a specific inhibitor of NF-?B.The purpose of our study was to explore the impact of inhibiting expression of NF-?B on radiation-induced apoptosis of uterine cervix cancer HeLa cells.Methods:Inhibition of NF-?B in HeLa cells was performed by treatment with 100 ?mol/L PDTC for 2 hours.Cells were irradiated at 0,2,4 and 6 Gy with or without PDTC.The expression of NF-?B in nuclear was determined by western blot,and apoptosis was evaluated by using the TUNEL assay.Cell proliferation was evaluated by using MTT assay.Results:NF-?B activation was induced by radiation and inhibited by PDTC.Inhibition of radiation-induced NF-?B activation resulted in inhibiting cell proliferation(P

RESUMO

Objective: To study the mechanisms and treatment of ischemia/reperfusion injury. Expression of E selectin was measured and the effect on suppression of E selectin by the Pyrrolidine Dithiocarbamate was investigated. Methods: Endothelial cells were exposed to hypoxia, then returned to reoxygenation condition. ELISA methods were used to detect expression of E selectin. Results: E selectin expression on hypoxia/reoxygenation stimulated endothelial cells increased, PDTC could suppress translation of E selectin effectively. Conclusion: It seems that E selectin may act as a critical factor. PDTC may prove beneficial in the treatment of ischemia/reperfusion injury.

RESUMO

Objective To establish a hydrogen peroxide-impaired model of rat cerebral microvascular endothelial cells in vitro, and observe the protective effect of serum containing Naoyian. Method Rat cerebral microvascular endothelial cells were treated with six concentrations of hydrogen peroxide at four time points. The optimum injury condition of hydrogen peroxide was determined by MTT chromatometry. Then the cultured cells pretreated with serum containing Naoyian and pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate(PDTC) were interfered with hydrogen peroxide in suitable concentration and time, and OD of the treated cells was measured by MTT chromatometry. Results The cultured cells were injured obviously by hydrogen peroxide in 0 125mmol/L for 30min. The OD of the cells pretreated with 5% serum containing Naoyian and 50?mol/L PDTC were significantly higher than that of the cells without pretreatment (P
