Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effectiveness of astragalosideⅣ(AS-Ⅳ)in ameliorating radiation-induced cardiomyocyte edema and its molecular mechanism.Methods The AC 16 cells were divided into blank group,model group,AS-Ⅳ pre-irradiation administration group(Q group),post-irradiation administration group(H group)and pre-post-irradiation administration group(Q+H group).H group was incubated with 40 mol·L-1 AS-Ⅳ drug-containing medium,and the other groups were incubated with normal medium for 24 h.After 24 h of incubation,6 Gy X-ray irradiation was given to establish the cardiomyocyte edema model in all groups except the blank group,and group Q was replaced with normal medium,and group H was replaced with 40 mol·L-1 AS-Ⅳ drug-containing medium for 24 h of incubation.Calcein AM staining was used to observe the edema of AC 16 cells,Western blot method was used to detect the expression of key proteins of aqueous fluid metabolism,and Annexin-V/PI flow apoptosis assay was used to detect apoptosis of AC 16 cells.Results The area of cellular edema in blank,model,Q,H,and Q+H groups were 690.77±199.55,1 184.47±307.36,713.65±152.48,809.72±262.85 and 897.61±213.66;the relative expression levels of hypoxia inducible factor(HIF)-1α protein were 0.94±0.02,1.35±0.03,0.91±0.03,0.69±0.02 and 0.86±0.03;the relative expression levels of aquaporin 4(AQP4)protein were 0.66±0.03,1.07±0.04,0.67±0.02,0.56±0.03 and 0.56±0.02;the apoptosis rates were(3.90±0.76)%,(16.58±0.63)%,(12.91±0.51)%,(14.05±0.22)%and(12.13±0.38)%,respectively.Statistically significant differences were found between the above indicators in the blank,Q,H and Q+H groups when compared to the model group(all P<0.05).Conclusion AS-Ⅳ can regulate water-liquid metabolism,ameliorate radiation-induced cardiomyocyte edema,and attenuate apoptosis by inhibiting the abnormal activation of the HIF-1 α/AQP4 axis in irradiated AC 16 cells.
