Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the protective effect of exogenous biliverdin on ultraviolet B (UVB)-radiated HaCaT cells,and to explore its mechanism.Methods Cultured HaCaT cells were divided into 5 groups:control group receiving no treatment,UVB group irradiated with 30 mJ/cm2 UVB,3 biliverdin + UVB groups treated with 100 nmol/L,1 μmol/L and 10 μmol/L biliverdin respectively for 1 hour followed by 30 mJ/cm2 UVB radiation.After 24-hour treatment,changes in the morphology of HaCaT cells were observed,and cell counting kit 8 (CCK8) assay was performed to determine cell survival rates in the above groups.Western blot analysis was conducted to measure the protein expression of antioxidant signaling molecule NF-E2-related factor-2 (Nrf-2) and the photodamage signaling molecules matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) and MMP-3.Results CCK8 assay showed that the survival rate of HaCaT cells was significantly lower in the UVB group than in the control group (P ＜ 0.05),but significantly higher in the 100-nmol/L,1-μmol/L and 10-μmol/L biliverdin + UVB groups than in the UVB group (all P ＜ 0.05).Western blot analysis showed that the protein expression of MMP-1 and MMP-3 was significantly higher in the UVB group (1.150 ± 0.187,0.979 ± 0.054 respectively) than in the control group (0.116 ± 0.018,0.636 ± 0.035 respectively;both P ＜ 0.01),but was significantly lower in the 100-nmol/L,1-μmol/L and 10-μmol/L biliverdin + UVB groups (MMP-1:0.825 ± 0.139,0.313 ± 0.047 and 0.286 ± 0.036 respectively;MMP-3:0.888 ± 0.017,0.672 ± 0.042 and 0.569:±:0.037 respectively) than in the UVB group (all P ＜ 0.05).Moreover,the protein expression of Nrf-2 was significantly lower in the UVB group (0.906 ± 0.034) than in the control group (1.242 ± 0.141,P ＜ 0.05),but significantly higher in the 100-nmol/L,1-μmol/L and 10-μmol/L biliverdin + UVB groups (1.556 ± 0.112,1.897 ± 0.234 and 2.035 ±0.274) than in the UVB group (all P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Exogenous biliverdin protects against UVB-induced photodamage in HaCaT cells,which may be associated with Nrf-2 antioxidant signaling pathway.
