Effect of Tanshinonne ⅡA preconditioning on nuclear factor kappa B signaling pathway in N9 cells subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation and restoration / 中华麻醉学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the effect of TanshinonneⅡA preconditioning on nuclear factor kappa B ( NF-κB ) signaling pathway in N9 cells subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation and restoration ( OGD∕R) . Methods N9 cells cultured in vitro were divided into 4 groups ( n=16 each) by using a ran-dom number table method: control group ( C group) , OGD∕R group, vehicle group ( V group) and Tanshi-none ⅡA preconditioning group ( TP group) . N9 cells were subjected to O2-glucose deprivation for 4 h fol-lowed by restoration of O2-glucose supply for 24 h to establish the OGD∕R model. Group C receive no treat-ment. In group TP, N9 cells were cultured in medium containing Tanshinone ⅡA ( final concentration 5 mg∕L) for 24 h before the model was established. Dimethyl sulfoxide was added to the culture medium in group V. At the 24 h of reoxygenation, the level of lactate dehydrogenase ( LDH) and nitric oxide ( NO) in culture medium was detected by spectrophotometry, cell apoptosis was assessed by using TUNEL, and the expression of NF-κB in nucleus was detected by Western blot. The apoptosis rate was calculated. Results Compared with group C, the levels of LDH, IL-β, TNF-α and NO in culture medium and apoptosis rate were significantly increased, and the expression of NF-κB in nucleus was up-regulated in OGD∕R, V and TP groups ( P<0. 05) . Compared with group OGD∕R, the levels of LDH, IL-β, TNF-αand NO in culture me-dium and apoptosis rate were significantly decreased, and the expression of NF-κB in nucleus was down-reg-ulated in group TP ( P<0. 05) , and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in group V ( P>0. 05 ) . Conclusion The mechanism by which Tanshinonne ⅡA preconditioning reduces OGD∕R injury to N9 cells is related to inhibiting NF-κB signaling pathway.
