Abstract:
Aim To investigate whether liver X recep- tors attenuate high glucose-induced apoptosis in H9C2 cells through inhibiting nuclear factor-NF-κB.Methods The lentiviral vector of LXRs was constructed and H9C2 cells cultured in high glucose were infected.The H9C2 cells were divided into 6 groups:control group (5.5 mmol·L -1 glucose),mannitol group(5.5 mmol ·L -1 glucose +27.5 mmol·L -1 mannitol),high glu-cose group(33 mmol·L -1 glucose),green fluorescent protein(GFP)group LXRαgroup,and LXRβgroup. The inhibition rate of H9C2 cells,the mRNA of Bax, Bcl-2,the protein content of NF-κB,Bax,Bcl-2, cleaved caspase-3,and the cell apoptosis were com-pared among these groups.Results LXRs overexpres-sion significantly attenuated high glucose-induced in-crease in Bax NF-κB,cleaved caspase-3 and cell ap-optosis(P <0.05),and increased high glucose-induced decrease in Bcl-2.Conclusion Liver X receptors at-tenuate high glucose-induced apoptosis in H9C2 cells through NF-κB signaling pathway.
