OBJECTIVE To explore the improvement effect and mechanism of acacetin on juvenile asthma rats based on the silence information regulator 1 (SIRT1)/AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway. METHODS Juvenile SD rats were randomly divided into control group, asthma group, acacetin group (13.33 mg/kg, gavage), SIRT inhibitor EX-527 group (1 mg/kg, intraperitoneal injection) and acacetin+EX-527 group (13.33 mg/kg acacetin, gavage+1 mg/kg EX-527, intraperitoneal injection), with 12 rats in each group (half male and half female). Except for the control group, the other groups were sensitized by intraperitoneal injection of ovalbumin and nebulized inhalation of ovalbumin to induce the asthma model. After modeling, rats in each drug group were orally administered or (and) intraperitoneally injected with the corresponding medication once a day for 2 weeks. After the last administration, the total number of cells, the proportion of eosinophils, and the levels of interleukin-5 (IL-5), IL-4 and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were measured. The pathological changes and abnormal proliferation of goblet cells in lung tissue were observed, the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in lung tissue and the protein expressions of SIRT1, AMPK and peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-gamma co-activator factor-1α(PGC-1α) were detected. RESULTS Compared with control group, there was a large number of inflammatory cell infiltration and obvious goblet cell dysplasia in the lung tissue of rats in asthma group; the total number of cells in BALF, the proportion of eosinophils, the levels of IL-5, IL-4 and TNF-α in BALF, PAS score and MDA level in the lung tissue were significantly increased (P<0.05); the SOD level, protein expressions of SIRT1 and PGC-1α and protein phosphorylation level of AMPK in lung tissue were significantly decreased in asthma group (P<0.05). Compared with the asthma group, the pathological changes of lung tissue and goblet cell dysplasia of rats were reduced, and all quantitative indexes were significantly improved in acacetin group (P<0.05), while the pathological changes of lung tissue and goblet cell dysplasia of rats were increased, and all quantitative indexes were significantly worsened in EX-527 group (P< 0.05). The combination of EX-527 could significantly reverse the effects of acacetin on oxidative stress and airway inflammation in juvenile asthma rats. CONCLUSIONS Acacetin can inhibit oxidative stress and airway inflammation in juvenile asthma rats,which may be related to the activation of the SIRT1/AMPK jinanlvshishen@163.com signaling pathway.

China Pharmacy 2024;35(6):701-706
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of polydatin (PD) on cell proliferation, migration, invasion and tumor growth of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). METHODS Human AML cell KG-1 were divided into normal group, PD low-, medium- and high-concentration groups (10, 30, 60 μmol/L PD), SQ22536 group [cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) inhibitor, 100 μmol/L], high concentration of PD+SQ22536 group (60 μmol/L PD+100 μmol/L SQ22536). The effects of PD on cell activity, apoptotic rate, invasion and migration ability, cAMP level, the expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) related proteins and protein kinase A (PKA) were investigated. Using BALB/c nude mice as subjects, a transplanted tumor model of AML nude mice was induced by subcutaneous inoculation of KG-1 cell suspension and then divided into control group, PD group, SQ22536 group and PD+SQ22536 group (with 6 mice in each group). The effects of PD on tumor volume and mass were measured. RESULTS Compared with the normal group or control group, the cell viabilities, the number of migrating cells, the number of invasive cells, the relative expressions of vimentin and Snail as well as the tumor volume and mass were decreased significantly in PD groups, while the apoptotic rates, cAMP levels, the relative expressions of E-cadherin and PKA were significantly increased, with a dose-dependent manner (P<0.05). SQ22536 had opposite effects on cells and nude mice compared to PD, and could significantly reverse the anti-tumor activity of PD (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS PD may inhibit the proliferation, migration, invasion and EMT process of KG-1 cells, induce apoptosis, and inhibit tumor growth, by activating the cAMP/PKA signaling pathway, thereby exerting anti-AML effects.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the effect of miR-22 targeting formin-like protein 2 (FMNL2) on the migration and apoptosis of childhood acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells.
METHOD:
Peripheral blood samples from 11 children with AML, 10 children with immune thrombocytopenia, human AML cell lines TF-1a, HL-60, THP-1 and human bone marrow stromal cells HS-5 were used as the research objects. UniCel DxH 800 automatic hematology analyzer detected platelet count, hemoglobin, and white blood cell count in peripheral blood samples, and RT-qPCR detected miR-22 expression in peripheral blood samples and AML cells. HL-60 cells were transfected with LipofectamineTM 2000 kit, the experiments were divided into seven groups: blank (no cells transfected), miR-NC, miR-22 mimics, si-NC, si-FMNL2 , miR-22 mimics+OE-NC and miR-22 mimics+OE-FMNL2 . RT-qPCR was used to detect the expression of miR-22 in each group. Transwell was used to detect cell migration. Flow cytometry was used to detect cell apoptosis. Dual-luciferase reporter gene detection experiments verified the targeting relationship between miR-22 and FMNL2 . Western blot was used to detect the expression of FMNL2 protein.
RESULTS:
Compared with the control group, the number of leukocytes in the peripheral blood of children with AML was significantly increased (P <0.001), while the concentration of hemoglobin and the number of platelets were significantly decreased P <0.001). The expression level of miR-22 in peripheral blood of children with AML was significantly lower than that in control group (P <0.001). Compared with HS-5 cells, the expression levels of miR-22 in TF-1a, HL-60, and THP-1 cells were significantly decreased (P <0.05), and in HL-60 cells was the lowest. Therefore, HL-60 cells were selected for subsequent experiments. Up-regulation of miR-22 or silencing of FMNL2 could reduce the number of migrating cells and increase apoptosis rate (P <0.05). MiR-22 targeted and negatively regulated the expression of FMNL2 . FMNL2 overexpression reversed the effects of up-regulated miR-22 on migration and apoptosis of HL-60 cells.
CONCLUSION
MiR-22 can inhibit the migration and promote apoptosis of HL-60 cells by down regulating the expression of FMNL2 .
