Abstract:
Objective: To examine the effects of four organic acids (OA), namely chlorogenic acid (CHA), ascorbic acid (AA), citric acid (CA) and malic acid (MA), on monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) and monocyte colony stimulating factor (M-CSF), as well as on antioxidant function in human vascular endothelial cells (EC). Methods: Original human umbilical vein EC were cultured and incubated for 12 h respectively with ox-LDL, in the presence of CHA, AA, CA and MA at different concentrations(10, 20, 40 mg/L), to study the protective effect on human vascular EC and its mechanism . Results: (1) TBARS value of oxLDL group was 14.85 times higher than that of normal LDL group which was not different with blank group. TBARS values of the OA+oxLDL group were lower at different extents when compared with ox-LDL group, showing dose-effect response. The inhibitory effects of CHA and AA were better than those of CA and MA. (2) MCP-1 and M-CSF of ox-LDL group were higher than those of blank group. Both MCP-1 and M-CSF of OA+ox-LDL groups statistically decreased when compared with ox-LDL group; MCP-1 and M-CSF of single CHA or AA (40 mg/L)group were lower than those of blank group respectively. Conclusion: The protective effects of OA on human vascular EC were contributed to their antioxidant activities, probably through MCP-1 and M-CSF .
