Abstract:
Objective To investigate whether Resolvin E1 ( RvE1 ) could protect against ox-LDL-induced injury on human vein vascular endothelial cells and reveal related molecular mechanisms.Methods Human vein vascular endothelial cells were randomly assigned to six groups,which were treated with saline,RvE1,wortmanin,ox-LDL,ox-LDL and RvE1,ox-LDL and RvE1 and wortmanin,respectively.After 48 h,survival rates were determined by MTT,apoptosis rate of cells were determined by flow cytometry,TNF-αt contents were assayed by ELISA,caspase 3 and 9 activities were measured by microplate reader,and the expression of p-AKT and LOX-1 were determined by Western blot.Result Compared with normal saline group,survival rate was markedly decreased and apoptosis rate,TNF-α content,caspase 3 and 9 activities,and the expression of LOX-1 were significantly increased in ox-LDL group ( P < 0.01 ).Survival rate was significantly increased and apoptosis rate,TNF-α content,caspase 3 and 9 activities,and the expression of LOX-1 were significantly decreased in ox-LDL + RyE1 group compared to ox-LDL group (P < 0.01 ),these beneficial effects of RvE1 could be blocked by PI3K inhibitor wortmanin ( P < O.05 ).Conclusion The present data showed that RvE1 could effectively protect against ox-LDL-induced endothelial cell injury,which might be mediated by PI3K-AKT signaling pathway.
