ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the role of heme oxygenase (HO)-1 on the protective effect of C-phycocyanin (CPC) on doxorubicin (DOX)-induced myocardial cells injury by Nvf2/HO-1 pathway. Methods 60 SD rats were randomly divided into control group, DOX group, CPC group and tin protoporphyrin IX (SnPP, an inhibitor of HO-1) group. The control group was injected with normal saline injection,while the DOX group was administrated with doxorubicin by intraperitoneal injection in a cumulative dose of 15 mg/kg for two weeks. For the CPC rats, 20, 40 and 60 mg/kg of CPC was administrated. The level of creatine kinase (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were detected, and the activity of HO-1 and caspase-3 were also examined. Expression of HO-1 and activation of Nrf 2 were detected by Western blot. Results Compared with control group, serum levels of CK, LDH and Caspase-3 activity in DOX group were significantly increased(P<0.05), but HO-1 in cardiac muscle was only increased slightly. upregulation. Treatment with CPC could significantly ameliorated the CK, LDH and Caspase-3 activity, and markedly induce HO-1 expression and its activity. The reduction of CK, LDH and Caspase-3 activity by CPC could be reversed by treatment of the HO-1 inhibitor, SnPP. Furthermore, CPC sould also induce Nrf 2 activation. Conclusion The protective effect of CPC on doxorubicin-induced myocardial cells in jury via Nrf 2 induced HO-1 HO-1 expression.
