Abstract:
OBJECTIVE：To investigate the anti-apoptotic effect of curcumin on H 2O2-induced H 9c2 cardiomyocyte injury and the regulation of NF-κB signaling pathway. METHODS：H9c2 cardiomyocyte were randomly divided into normal control group ， injury model group ，curcumin low-dose ，medium-dose and high-dose groups （25，50，100 μmol/L）. Normal control group didn ’t received any intervention. The cells in injury model group were induced with 50 μmol/L H2O2 for 12 h to establish the injury model. The cells in curcumin groups were treated with relevant concentration of drugs for 24 h，and then induced with 50 μmol/L H2O2 for 12 h. After cultured for 24 h，survival rate and apoptotic rate of cells were measured by MTT method and TUNEL method ；SOD activity and MDA content were determined by WTS- 8 assay and color test ；relative fluorescence intensity of LC 3 positive expression was detected by immunofluorescence method ；mRNA expression of NF-κB p65 in cells was detected by real-time PCR ； Western blotting assay was used to detect the protein expression of NF-κB p65 and p-NF-κB p65 in cells. RESULTS ：Compared with normal control group ，survival rate and SOD activity were decreased significantly in injury model group ，while apoptotic rate ， MDA content ，relative fluorescence intensity of LC 3 positive expression ，mRNA expression of NF-κB，protein expression of NF-κ B p 65 and p-NF-κB p65 as well as p-NF-κB/NF-κB were increased significantly（P＜0.05）. Compared with injury model group ， survival rates and SOD activities were increased significantly in curcumin groups ，while apoptotic rates ，MDA contents ，relative fluorescence intensities of LC 3 positive expression ，mRNA expression of LC 3 positive cells ，protein expression of NF-κB p65 and p-NF-κ B p65 as well as p-NF-κ B p65/NF-κ B p65 were decreased significantly （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS ：Curcumin can increase the survival rate of H 2O2-induced H 9c2 cardiomyocyte injury ，decrease its apoptotic rate ，increase SOD activity and decrease MDA content in cardiomyocytes. Above effects may be related to the regulation of NF-κB signaling pathway.
