Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effect of gastrodin(GAS)on the sex-determining region Y-box2(SOX2)/β-catenin pathway in microglia induced by lipopolysaccharide(LPS).Methods:BV2 microglia was cultured in vitro and divided into the following groups:Control group(Control),LPS group(LPS),LPS+0.17 mmol/L gastrodin treatment group(LPS+GAS-L),LPS+0.34 mmol/L gastrodin treatment group(LPS+GAS-H),SOX2 inhibitor pronethalolgroup(PR),LPS+PR group(LPS+PR),and LPS+PR+GAS group(LPS+PR+GAS).Effect of PR on BV2 microglia viability was detected by CCK-8.The expression of SOX2,β-catenin,mannose receptor(CD206)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)was assessed using Western Blot and immunofluorescence double staining.Results:PR did not induce significant BV2 cell death in the 0~40 μmol/L range.After LPS treatment,the expression levels of SOX2,β-catenin,and TNF-α significantly increased in the LPS group,while CD206 decreased(P<0.05).Following GAS treatment,the expression levels of SOX2,β-catenin,and TNF-α significantly decreased,while CD206 increased(P<0.05).Compared to the LPS group,the expression levels of β-catenin and TNF-α significantly de-creased in the PR group(P<0.05),but no significant difference was observed between the LPS+GAS and LPS+PR+GAS group.Conclusion:GAS significantly inhibits LPS-induced microglia activation potentially through the inhibi-tion of the SOX2/β-catenin signaling pathway,and exerts anti-inflammatory effects.
