Abstract:
Objective To investigate the role of glutaredoxin1(Grx1)on high glucose-induced apoptosis in cultured umbilical vein endothelial cells.Methods Human umbilical vein endothelial cells was cultured and induced with different dose of glucose and Grx1.We divided the cells into three groups:cell control group,damage group(high glucose group),pretreatment with Grx1 group(Grx1+ high glucose group).The morphological changes of the cells were observed by light microscope.The proliferation of cell was measured by MTT assay.The morphon of cell nucleolus of endothelial cell was observed in a fluorescence microscope by Hoechst 33258 stain and the influences of Grx1 on the apoptosis were determined by the immunofluorescent of Annexin V-FITC/PI with flow cytometer.Results Under the light microscope Grx1 ameliorated cells condition and restore the structure of organelle compared with damage group.Grx1 prevented the inhibitory effect on cell viability induced by high glucose;Hoechst33258 stains suggested Grx1 protect the cells nucleolus against high glucose-induced apoptosis.The analysis of Grx1 can restrain apoptosis rate of endothelial cell significantly.Conclusion Grx1 can obviously protect human umbilicus vein endothelial cells from apoptosis damages induced by high glucose.
