Abstract:
Objective To compare the effects of different doses of phillyrin(PHN)on the injury of human retinal vascular endothelial cells(RVECs)induced by high glucose(HG)and analyze its regulatory effect on the expression of complement C1q/tumor necrosis factor-related protein-3(CTRP3)and its possible mechanism.Methods RVECs were cultured with HG to establish cell injury models(HG group).RVECs in the HG+PHN-L group,HG+PHN-M group,and HG+PHN-H group were treated with 1 μmol·L-1,10 μmol·L-1,and 100 μmol·L-1 PHN,respectively,followed by HG induction.RVECs in the HG+pcDNA group and HG+pcDNA-CTRP3 group were transfected with pcDNA and pcDNA-CTRP3,respectively,followed by HG induction.RVECs in the HG+PHN-H+sh-NC group and HG+PHN-H+sh-CTRP3 group were transfected with sh-NC and sh-CTRP3,respectively,then induced by HG and treated with 100 μmol·L-1 PHN.The levels of malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide dismutase(SOD),and glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px)were meas-ured.Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry.The expression levels of B-cell lymphoma-2(Bcl-2),Bcl-2-associated X(Bax)and CTRP3 protein were determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR)and Western blot,respectively.Results Compared with the Con group,the cell apoptosis rate and the levels of MDA and Bax protein in the HG group increased,while the levels of SOD,GSH-Px,Bcl-2 protein,CTRP3 mRNA and protein decreased(all P<0.05).Compared with the HG group,the cell apoptosis rate and the levels of MDA and Bax protein in the HG+PHN-L,HG+PHN-M,and HG+PHN-H groups decreased(HG+PHN-H group<HG+PHN-M group<HG+PHN-L group),while the levels of SOD,GSH-Px,Bcl-2 protein,CTRP3 mRNA and protein increased(HG+PHN-H group>HG+PHN-M group>HG+PHN-L group)(all P<0.05).Compared with the HG+pcDNA group,the cell apoptosis rate and the levels of MDA and Bax protein in the HG+pcDNA-CTRP3 group decreased,while the levels of SOD,GSH-Px,CTRP3 protein,and Bcl-2 protein increased(all P<0.05).Compared with the HG+PHN-H+sh-NC group,the HG+PHN-H+sh-CTRP3 group showed an increase in the cell apoptosis rate and the levels of MDA and Bax protein and a decrease in the levels of SOD,GSH-Px,CTRP3 protein,and Bcl-2 protein(all P<0.05).Conclusion PHN can alleviate HG-induced damage to RVECs,which may be related to the upregulation of the CTRP3 expression.
