Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the protective effect of activated AMP-activated protein kinase(AMPK) on the human umbilical vein endothelial cell(HUVEC) damage induced by palmatic acid(PA) and the related mechanism.Methods: HUVEC were divided into 8 groups according to the culture media(cultured for 24 to 72 h): blank control(conventional culture),300 ?mol/L PA,1 mmol/L aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-beta-ribofuranoside (AICAR),PA+AICAR,2 mmol/L metformin,PA+metformin,10 ?mol/L pioglitazone,and PA+pioglitazone groups.Survival rates of HUVEC were determined by MTT at 24,48 and 72 h after culture.Western blot were performed to detect the expression of phospha-AMPK at 24 h after culture.Results: Compared with blank control group,cell survival rates in PA group were decreased by 58.95%,36.68% and 15.09% at 24,48 and 72 h(P
