Abstract:
Objective To explore the anti-apoptosis mechanism of serum containing Xin Mai Tong decoction in myocardial cell under oxidative stress.Methods The neonate rat myocardial cell was cultivated and the model of myocardial cell apoptosis was induced with 400 ? mol/L H2O2.The cell viability was determined by MTT method,myocardial cell apoptosis was determined by TUNEL method,and the intra-cellular expression of HSP70,NF-? B and caspase-3 in myocardial cell was determined by immunocytochemistry.Results Administration of 400 ? mol/L H2O2 for 1 hour was harmless to myocardial cell,the expression of HSP70 being slightly increased.However,apoptosis was induced in myocardial cells at the 6 th hour after 400? mol/L H2O2 administration.The serum containing Xin Mai Tong significantly attenuated the decrease of cell viability and apoptosis which was induced by oxidative stress.Increased expression of HSP70 was induced by the serum containing Xin Mai Tong,and the activation of NF-? B and caspase-3 were significantly inhibited.Conclution The serum containing Xin Mai Tong decoction shows a significant inhibitory effect on apoptosis induced by H2O2,and the mechanism may be through increasing protein expression of HSP70,inhibiting the activation of NF-? B and decreasing the expression of caspase-3.
