ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the expression of hypoxia inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α)in the transplanted liver in rats and the role of HIF-1α in the JNK signaling pathway.Methods Ninety-six SD rats were randomly divided into normal control(NC)group,autotransplantation(AT)group,hypoxia preconditioning (HP)+ AT group according to simple random sampling method.No treatment was applied to the rats in the NC group except for blood vessel separation.Stable rat models of 70% AT was established in the AT group.Rats in the HP + AT group were given 8% oxygen mixed gas for 90 minutes before the operation.The levels of alanine aminotransferase(ALT)and aspartate aminotransferase(AST)were detected at 1,2,12,24 hours after operation,and the expression of HIF-1α in the hepatic tissue,mRNA expression of c-Jun,and protein expression of Cleaved Caspase-3 were detected by immunohistochemical staining,reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and Western blot,respectively.All data were analyzed using the analysis of variance or t test.Results The levels of ALT and AST in the HP + AT group were significantly lower than those in the AT group,while higher than those in the NC group at 1,2,12 and 24 hours after the operation(F=2631.371,1177.642,810.383,682.848;743.618,1095.522,375.995,580.613,P <0.05).The protein expression levels of HIF-1α in the AT group were significantly lower than those in the HP + AT group,but higher than those in the NC group at 1,2,12 and 24 hours after operation(F = 191.737,284.482,459.419,213.782,P < 0.05).The mRNA expression levels of c-Jun in the HP + AT group were significantly lower than those in the AT group,while higher than those in the NC group at 1,2 and 12 hours after operation(F = 66.211,53.169,9.645,P < 0.05).There was no significant difference in the mRNA expression of c-Jun among the 3 groups at 24 hours after operation(F = 1.100,P > 0.05).The protein expressions of Cleaved Caspase-3 in the HP + AT group were significantly lower than those in the AT group,while higher than those in the NC group at 1,2,12 and 24 hours after the operation(F =23.133,31.158,14.347,29.043,P < 0.05).Conclusion High expression of HIF-1α after HP inhibits apoptosis of hepatic cells and alleviates ischemia reperfusion injury of hepatic tissues by suppressing JNK activation,down-regulating protein expression of Cleaved Caspase-3 after orthotopic liver transplantation in rats.
