ABSTRACT
Objective:
To observe the effect of serum-containing Qingxin Tongmai decoction(QXTMD) on the apoptosis rate of mouse mononuclear macrophage cell line RAW264.7 induced by Acetylated low density lipoprotein (ac-LDL) and the expressions of type A scavenger receptor(SR-A), B-cell lymphoma-2(Bcl-2), Bcl-2-associated X protein(Bax), inositol-requiring enzyme 1α(IRE1α), exploring the possible mechanism of QXTMD in the treatment of atherosclerosis.Method:
Eight New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into the atorvastatin group (2.6 g·kg-1) low, medium and high-dose QXTMD groups (3.33, 6.66, 13.32 mg·kg-1). After 7 days of gavage, the carotid blood was collected to prepare drug-containing serum. The RAW264.7 cell line was stimulated with 2.5%, 5%, 10%, and 20% drug-containing serum culture for 6, 12, and 24 h, respectively. The cell proliferation rate was observed by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) method. The RAW264.7 cell line was cultured in vitro and divided into blank group, model group, atorvastatin group, and low, medium and high-dose QXTMY groups. The cells in blank group were cultured with bovine serum albumin(BSA). The model group was stimulated with BSA+50 mg·L-1 ac-LDL for 24 h. The other groups were stimulated with BSA+50 mg·L-1 ac-LDL+10% drug-containing serum for 24 h. The apoptosis rate and SR-A expression of RAW264.7 cells were detected by flow cytometry. The expressions of Bcl-2, Bax and IRE1α protein were detected by Western blot.Result:
Compared with the blank group, the model group could increase the apoptosis rate of RAW264.7 cells (PPPPα (PPPPPConclusion:
QXTMD can reduce the apoptosis rate of macrophages. The mechanism of atherosclerosis may be related to the expressions of Bax, IREα, SR-A and anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2.
