Effects of pyrroloquinoline quinone on proliferation and expression of NF-?B in cultured Schwann cells / 中国矫形外科杂志

ABSTRACT

[Objective] To investigate the effects of pyrroloquinoline quinine(PQQ)on proliferation and expression of NF-?B of Schwann cells.[Methods]Schwann cells were cultured from sciatic nerves of SD rats in vitro.The Schwann cells were identified and purified by immunofluorescence of S-100 and Ara-C.Experimental group with was 100 nmol/L of PQQ and control group were set up.The expression of NF-?B in Schwann cells was determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting.[Results]The expression of NF-?B were up-ragulated by PQQ in cultured Schwann cells(P
