Abstract:
Objective To investigate the protective effect of adiponectin on angiotesin Ⅱ (Ang Ⅱ)-mediated cardiomyocyte apoptosis,and explore the related mechanism. Methods Cardiomyocytes isolated from neonatal rats were cultured in vitro. The identity of cardiomyocytes was confirmed by morphological examination and staining with anti-sarcomeric ?-actin antibody,and most (more than 95%) of the cells were identified as neonatal rat ventricular myocytes. After being placed in a serum-free medium for 24 hours,the ventricular myocytes were randomly grouped and received the following treatments respectively:placebo,or Ang Ⅱ (1?mol/L),or Ang Ⅱ (1?mmol/L) plus adiponectin (30mg/L). The protein levels of Bcl-2 and Bax were detected by Western blotting. The apoptotic rate and the levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the ventricular myocytes were determined by flow cytometry. The survival rate of ventricular myocytes was evaluated by trypan blue staining. Results As compared with placebo group,the apoptosis of neonatal rat ventricular myocytes was significantly promoted in 1?mol/L angiotesin Ⅱ group,the survival rate of cardiomyocytes was significantly reduced,with the protein expression of Bax and the ROS level increased,and the protein expression of Bcl-2 decreased (P
