Abstract:
Objective:To study the role of DDX3X/NF-κB pathway in early neuronal apoptosis in subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH)mice.Methods:The mouse model of SAH was established by internal carotid artery puncture,and the neurological function score of the mice was evaluated.The DDX3X expression was knocked down using recombinant lentivirus expressing DDX3X targeted shRNA(Lv-shDDX3X),or the NF-κB pathway was inhibited by NF-κB-IN-1(IN-1).Western Blot was used to detect the expression of DDX3X and NF-κB(p65)in mouse cortex.TUNEL/NeuN staining was used to detect the apoptosis of cerebral cortex neurons.Results:Twenty-four hours after SAH operation,the neurological function of mice was significantly impaired(P＜0.05).While the expression of DDX3X was signifi-cantly increased and the expression of NF-κB(p65)was significantly decreased in the cortex(P＜0.05).When the DDX3X expression is knocked down firstly,then SAH surgery is performed.The neurological function of mice was sig-nificantly recovered,and the expression of NF-κB(p65)protein was significantly higher than that in SAH group(P＜0.05);If the NF-κB activity was inhibited by IN-1 while DDX3X knockdown,there is no significant recovery of neuro-logical function in SAH mice.TUNEL/NeuN staining showed that the number of TUNEL-positive neurons in the brain tissue after DDX3X knockdown was less than that in the SAH group(P＜0.05),while the number of TUNEL-positive neurons was not significantly reduced when IN-1 was used to inhibit NF-κB activity at the same time of DDX3X knock-down.Conclusion:DDX3X/NF-κB mediated cell death in mice with early brain injury after SAH.
