Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo characterize the effect of omeprazole on the spectrum of gene expression in the cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) line (EA.hy926), and explore the underlying molecular mechanism.
METHODSAffymetrix U133 plus2.0 oligonucleotide microarray was used to detect the alteration in the gene expression profiles induced by 1×10(-5) mol/L omeprazole in HUVECs. Real-time PCR was employed to verify the results of selected differentially expressed genes, and Western blotting was performed to test the expression levels of the related proteins.
RESULTSA total of 282 genes were found to show at least 1.5-fold changes in EA.hy926 cells after treatment with omeprazole for 48 h, including 236 up-regulated and 46 down-regulated ones. These genes were involved in the regulation of transcription, inflammatory response, immune response, cell adherence, anti-apoptosis, and signal transduction.
CONCLUSIONOmeprazole modulates the function of endothelial cells by regulating the gene expression profiles of multiple pathways.
