ABSTRACT
AIM:
To investigate the effect of nuclear factor kappa B(NF-?B)on proliferation,apoptosis and the expression of TGF-?1 in airway smooth muscle cells(ASMCs).METHODS:
Cultured ASMCs were divided into three groups and stimulated with or without TNF-? and pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate(PDTC)in vitro.Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)was used to detect the expression of TGF-?1 mRNA.The location and protein expression of PCNA and Bcl-2 were observed by immunocytochemical staining.The protein expression of TGF-?1 and NF-?B was detected by Western blotting.The proliferation and apoptosis of ASMCs were also observed.RESULTS:
The activity of NF-?B in TNF-? group was significantly higher than that in control group and TNF-? plus PDTC group,respectively(P
