Inhibition of sinomenine on nuclear factor-?B of synoviocytes in collagen-induced arthritis rats / 第三军医大学学报

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the effect of sinomenine(SN) in vitro on nuclear factor-?B(NF-?B) DNA binding activity and nuclear translocation of synoviocytes in collagen-induced arthritis(CIA) rats and explore its antiinflammatory mechanisms.Methods The experimental model of CIA rats was used and synoviocytes were collected.Cells were divided into five groups:normal control,CIA,CIA+10 ?mol/L methotrexate(MTX),CIA+50 ?mol/L SN,CIA+500 ?mol/L SN.Nuclear translocation of NF-?B p65 subunit and NF-?B DNA binding activity of synoviocytes were investigated by fluorescence labelling laser confocal scanning microscopy and electrophoretic mobility shift assay(EMSA) respectively.Results Compared to normal control,significant nuclear translocation of NF-?B p65 subunit was observed and NF-?B DNA binding activity was increased in synoviocytes of CIA rats(P
