Over-expression of BMSC FoxM1 Attenuates LPS-induced Apoptosis of Alveolar Epithelial cells / 中山大学学报(医学科学版)

@#【Objective】To investigate whether bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells（BMSC）over-expressing FoxM1genecanattenuatelipopolysaccharide（LPS）-inducedapoptosisofalveolarepithelialcells，andexploreitspossi⁃ blemechanism.【Methods】SDratBMSCwereisolatedandculturedbywholebonemarrowadherencemethod.FoxM1 genewasoverexpressedinBMSCbylentiviraltransfection.TheexpressionofthetargetgeneFoxM1wasverifiedbyWestern blot.ApoptosisofA549cellswasmeasuredbyTUNELandflowcytometry.Andthemulti-factorlevelofsupernatantin BMSC-A549co-culturesystemwasdetectedbyMilliplexmethod.【Results】TUNELandflowcytometryconfirmedthat theapoptosisrateofA549inducedbyLPSdecreasedafterco-culturewithBMSCoverexpressingFoxM1，andthediffer⁃ encewasstatisticallysignificant（P <0.05）.MilliplexassayshowedthatthelevelsofIL-13，IL-21，IL-23，MIP-1a， MIP-1bandinBMSCoverexpressing FoxM1 geneandA549co-culturesystemweresignificantlyincreased，whilethe MIP-3alevelissignificantlyreduced.【Conclusion】BMSCoverexpressingFoxM1genecanattenuateLPS-inducedapop⁃ tosisofalveolarepithelialcells.BMSCmayplayananti-apoptoticrolebychangingthelevelsofinflammation-related cytokinesreleasedbyA549cells.
