Effect of CBS-derived H2S from mouse nerve cells on proliferation and migration of brain microvascular endothelial cells and its relationship with VEGFR2 / 中国药理学通报

ABSTRACT

Aim To study the effect of H2S synthase CBS-derived H2S from mouse nerve cells on the proliferation and migration of the brain vascular endothelial cells and its relationship with VEGFR2. Methods CCK-8 method was used to detect cell proliferation, cell scratch method and Transwell method were used to detect cell migration, methyl blue method was used to detect H2S content, and calcium fluorescence imaging method was used to detect intracellular free Ca2 + concentration. HT22 cells were co-cultured with bEnd. 3 cells by using Transwell system. Results The H2S donor NaHS( 1 xlO"8-1 X 10"3'5 mol • L'1) significantly increased the proliferation and migration of HU- VEC cells and bEnd. 3 cells, while the VEGFR2 blocker SU5416 (10 (xmol • L"1) markedly inhibited the NaHS- increased proliferation and migration; in the co-culture system,the substrate of H2S synthase CBS, L-Cys (100 |xmol • L"1) , significantly promoted the proliferation and migration of bEnd. 3 cells, and increased intracellular Ca2 + fluorescence intensity in bEnd. 3 cells and the H2S content in the co-culture. However, CBS inhibitor AO A A (1 mmol • L"1 ) and SU5416 significantly attenuated the effects of L-Cys on the proliferation and migration and intracellular Ca2 + fluorescence intensity. Conclusions The CBS-derived H2S from neurons can promote the proliferation and migration of mouse cerebral vascular endothelial cells, which may be related to activation of VEGFR2 and subsequently increase of intracellular free Ca2+ concentration.
