Abstract:
Objective To study the effect of alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) and its novel analogue ( STY39 ) on the production of tissue factor ( TF ) and tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in primary mouse brain microvascular endothelial cells (MBMECs). Methods Female BALB/c mice were selected,purified and primarily cultured for 5 to 7 days. Immunofluorescence assay was use to detect the Ⅷ factor related antigen and identify the MBMEC model. The MBMECs were divided into eight groups:PBS control group, LPS stimulation group, after LPS stimulation 1,2,and 3 h adding 10 -7 mol/Lα-MSH groups or STY39 group (LPS+α-MSH,LPS+STY39) ( n=4 wholes in each group) . The cell culture supernatant and cells were collected at 6 and 8 h after LPS stimulation. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the concentrations of TF and TFPI in cell supernatant. RT-PCR was used to detect the expression levels of TF mRNA. Results (1) LPS could induce MBMEC to produce TF and TFPI proteins. The level of TF in the cell culture supernatant reached the peak at 6 h,and the level of TFPI reached the peak at 8 h. (2) At 1,2,and 3 h after LPS stimulating MBMEC,10 -7mol/L α-MSH or STY39 were given. They could significantly decrease the TF protein content in the cell supernatant (P<0. 01),especially the effects of giving α-MSH or STY39 were most significant at 1 h after LPS stimulation (P<0. 05). The effect of STY39 for decreasing TF content was more significant than that of α-MSH (P<0. 05);however,α-MSH and STY39 did not have significant up-regulating effects for LPS inducing MBMEC to produce TFPI. (3) After LPS stimulation,10 -7 mol/Lα-MSH or STY39 were given at different time points. They significantly down-regulated the expression level of MBMEC TF mRNA (P<0. 01). The effect was most significant at 1 h time point (P<0. 05),but there was no significant difference in the effects betweenα-MSH and STY39. Conclusion Bothα-MSH and STY39 can suppress LPS-induced primary MBMEC to produce TF protein and express TF mRNA,and the effect of administration is better after 1 h LPS stimulation. The suppressive effect of STY39 on the production of TF protein is superior toα-MSH.
