Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the role of KLF4 in lipopolysaccharide induced cardiomyocyte injury.Methods:Primary rat cardiomyocytes were isolated and cultured, and randomly divided into 5 groups: control group, negative control (NC), LPS group, KLF4 overexpression group, KLF4 overexpression+LPS group. MTT method was used to detect cell activity, ROS, SOD 2, GPX and MDA were detected by kit, TNFa, IL-1 β and IL-6 were detected by ELISA. TUNEL staining was used to detect apoptosis. The protein levels of TLR4 and Nrf2 were detected by Western blot.Results:The expression of KLF4 in cardiomyocytes was significantly higher than that in the NC group ( P<0.001). The cell activity of LPS group was significantly lower than that of NC group ( P < 0.001), and that of KLF4 overexpression +LPS group was higher than that of LPS group ( P<0.001). The levels of TNFa, IL-1 β and IL-6 in LPS group were significantly higher than those in the NC group ( P<0.0001), and the levels of TNFa, IL-1 β and IL-6 in KLF4 overexpression +LPS group were lower than those in LPS group ( P<0.0001). The levels of ROS and MDA in LPS group were significantly higher than those in the control group, while the activities of SOD2 and GPX were lower than those in the NC group ( P<0.0001); the levels of ROS and MDA in KLF4 overexpression +LPS group were lower than those in LPS group, while the activities of SOD2 and GPX were higher than those in LPS group ( P<0.0001). The number of apoptosis in LPS group was significantly higher than that in the NC group, and that in KLF4 overexpression +LPS group was lower than that in LPS group ( P< 0.001). The level of TLR4 wan higher and Nrf2 protein in the nucleus of LPS group was lower than that of the NC group. The level of TLR4 was lower and Nrf2 protein in the nucleus of KLF4 overexpression+LPS group was significantly higher than that of LPS group ( P < 0.001). Conclusions:KLF4 can alleviate LPS induced cardiomyocyte injury by regulating TLR4 and NRF2 signals.
