Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effect of capsaicin on lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced microglial inflammatory response by modulating silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog 1(SIRT1)/high mobility group box-1 protein(HMGB1)/nuclear factor κB(NF-κB)signaling pathway.Methods:BV2 mouse microglia were cultured in vitro,and pretreated with capsaicin(10 μmol/L),SIRT1 inhibitor EX527(100 μmol/L),capsaicin+EX527(10 μmol/L capsaicin+100 μmol/L EX527)for 3 hours,and then treated with LPS(1 μg/ml)for 24 hours,the corresponding groups were LPS group,LPS+capsaicin group,LPS+EX527 group,and LPS+capsaicin+EX527 group,a normal cultured control group(Control)was also set up.Morphological changes of BV2 cells in each group were observed under a microscope;CCK-8 method was used to detect the viability of BV2 cells in each group;immunofluo-rescence staining was applied to detect the positive expressions of ionic calcium adaptor protein(Iba-1)and the polarization of M1(positive for CD16/32)/M2(positive for CD206)subtypes in BV2 cells in each group;ELISA was applied to detect levels of inflamma-tory factors in BV2 cells in each group;Western blot and co-immunoprecipitation were applied to detect expression of SIRT1/HMGB1/NF-κB signaling pathway-related proteins in each group.Results:Compared with Control group,BV2 cells in LPS group were atro-phied,with shortened processes,the cell viability,and levels of IL-1β,TNF-α and IL-6 were increased,Iba-1 positive expression of BV2 cells and M1 type BV2 cells were increased,while expression of SIRT1 protein was decreased,expressions of acetylated(ace)-HMGB1 protein,cytoplasmic HMGB1 protein and nuclear NF-κB protein were increased(P<0.05);after capsaicin pretreatment,the above conditions were improved,and the M2 type BV2 cells were increased;adding EX527 pretreatment on the basis of capsaicin pre-treatment,the above conditions were all aggravated.Conclusion:Capsaicin can inhibit the inflammatory response induced by LPS-in-duced BV2 cell activation,which may be achieved by modulating the SIRT1/HMGB1/NF-κB signaling pathway.
