Abstract:
Objective To explore the sufentanil by adjusting the adenosine monosodium phosphate activa-ted protein kinase(AMPK)/thioredoxin interacting proteins(TXNIP)/nucleotide-binding oligomerization do-main-like receptor protein 3(NLRP3)signaling pathways of the alveolar epithelial cells induced by lipopo-lysaccharide to the dead.Methods Human alveolar epithelial type Ⅱ cell(AECⅡ)were cultured to logarith-mic phase.Then they were divided into control group(normal glucose culture),lipopolysaccharide group(li-popolysaccharide induced injury by 50 μg/mL),low concentration sufentanil group(20 μmol/L),high concen-tration sufentanil group(40 μmol/L),high concentration sufentanil(40 μmol/L)+AMPK-IN-3 group(50μmol/L AMPK inhibitors).MTT assay was used to detect cell proliferation.Pyroptosis was detected by Ho-echst 33342 and propidium iodide(PI)double staining.The levels of interleukin(IL)-1β,IL-18 and tumor nec-rosis factor-α(TNF-α)in cell supernatant were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Quantitative real-time PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression of focal death related factors cysteinyl proteinase-1(Caspase-1),apoptosis-associated speck-like protein(ASC),and gasdermin D(GSDMD).The protein expres-sion of AMPK,phosphorylated adenosine monosodium phosphate activated protein kinase(p-AMPK),TXNIP and NLRP3 were detected by Western blot.Results Compared with the control group,the survival rate of AEC Ⅱ cells in the lipopolysaccharide group decreased,the number of PI+positive cells increased,the release of inflammatory factors IL-1β,IL-18 and TNF-α increased,the expression of Caspase-1,ASC and GSDMD mR-NA increased,the expression of p-AMPK/AMPK decreased,and the expression of TXNIP and NLRP3 in-creased(P<0.05).Compared with the lipopolysaccharide group,the survival rate of AEC Ⅱ cells in the low concentration sufentanil group and the high concentration sufentanil group increased,PI+positive cells de-creased,the release of inflammatory factors IL-1β,IL-18 and TNF-α decreased,the expression of Caspase-1,ASC and GSDMD mRNA decreased,the expression of p-AMPK/AMPK increased,and the expression of TX-NIP and NLRP3 decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the high concentration sufentanil group,the survival rate of AEC Ⅱ cells in the high concentration sufentanil+AMPK-IN-3 group decreased,the number of PI+positive cells increased,the release of inflammatory factors IL-1β,IL-18 and TNF-α increased,the expression of Caspase-1,ASC and GSDMD mRNA increased,the expression of p-AMPK/AMPK decreased,and the ex-pression of TXNIP and NLRP3 increased(P<0.05).Conclusion Sufentanil may improve lipopolysaccharide induced alveolar epithelial cell pyroptosis by regulating AMPK/TXNIP/NLRP3 signaling pathway.
