Journal of Shanghai Jiaotong University(Medical Science) 2017;37(5):588-594
Objective · To clarify effect of adipose stem cells derived conditioned medium (ASCs-CM) on fibrogenesis of dermal fibroblasts costimulated by transforming growthfactor-β1 (TGF-β1), and explore the possible paracrine pathway of ASCs in regulating the dermal tissue rehabilitation.Methods · Co-stimulated by TGF-β1, dermal fibroblasts were treated with different concentrations of ASCs-CM. Variouscellular events including cell proliferation, apoptosis, and mRNA and (or) protein levels of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), type Ⅰ collagen (COL-1) , type Ⅲ collagen (COL-3), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2) were explored. Furthermore, the effect of HGF antibody on apoptosis of fibroblasts caused by ASCs-CM and TGF-β1 were also observed. Results · ASCs-CM inhibited fibroblasts proliferation caused by TGF-β1 and lead to cell apoptosis. α-SMA expression in fibroblasts was attenuated by 10% ASCs-CM +TGF-β1. It was demonstrated that 100% ASCs-CM with TGF-β1 had promoted collagens (especially COL-3) expression in fibroblasts, and increased HGF mRNA level as well. HGF antibody inhibited fibroblasts apoptosis produced by 100% ASCs-CM and TGF-β1. Conclusion · ASCs may have an effect on fibrogenesis of dermal fibroblasts co-stimulated by TGF-β1 through a paracrine way.High concentration of ASCs-CM not only increases collagen production and secretion, but also inhibits fibroblasts proliferation and accelerates apoptosis.

9.Hypoxia/reoxygenation and lipopolysaccharide induced nuclear factor-κB and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α signaling pathways in intestinal epithelial cell injury and the interventional effect of emodin
Chinese Critical Care Medicine 2014;26(6):409-414
Objective To observe pathological process of intestinal epithelial cells subjected to ischemia,ischemia/reperfusion injury and inflammation simulated hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenged human fetal normal colonic cell (FHC) line in vivo,and to observe the changes when the assaulted intestinal epithelial cells were treated with emodin,in order to explore the possible intervention targets of emodin.Methods Normoxia group:the FHC cells were cultured in 95% air and 5% CO2 at 37 ℃.Hypoxia (H) group:the cells were cultured with a mixed anaerobic gas of 1% O2,5% CO2 and 94% N2 at 37 ℃ for 1,2,3,4 hours.H + LPS group:the cells were cultured in hypoxic condition as H group with simultaneous challenge of LPS (1 mg/L).H/R group:the cells were cultured in hypoxia for 3 hours followed by reoxygenation for 1,2,3 and 4 hours,respectively.H/R + LPS group:the cells were cultured in H/R as H/R group and LPS (1 mg/L) simultaneously.Emodin intervention group:the cells were cultured in H3 h/R2 h + LPS and emodin (20,40,60,80 μmol/L) simultaneously.The variation trends of phosphorylation nuclear factor-κB profilin-o (pIκB-α),phosphorylation NF-κBp65 (pNF-κBp65) and their downstream target gene cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2),and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1 α) were determined by Western Blot.The morphological changes in intestinal epithelium in different groups were observed using light microscope.The effect of emodin on the proliferation of intestinal epithelial cell was measured by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay.Results ① H group:the expressions of pIκB-α,pNF-κBp65 and COX-2 were upregulated,peaking at H1 h (0.350 ± 0.018,1.083 ± 0.054,0.903 ± 0.045),and then they gradually lowered (F value was 3.011,7.247,5.754,P value was 0.013,0.000,0.005,respectively).The expression of HIF-1 α peaked at H3 h (1.511 ± 0.076),but there was no significant difference among different groups (F=1.881,P=0.062).H + LPS group:the expressions of pIκB-α,pNF-κBp65,COX-2,HIF-1α were increased with elongation of duration of hypoxia,and a maximal induction was observed at H3 h (0.504 ± 0.025,1.255 ± 0.063,0.812 ± 0.041,1.209 ± 0.075,F value was 2.683,8.774,9.765,2.432,and P value was 0.011,0.000,0.000,0.026,respectively).H/R group:with the prolonged duration of reoxygenation,the expressions of NF-κB signaling pathway proteins (pIκB-α,pNF-κBp65,COX-2) were decreased and dropped to nadir at H3 h/R4 h (0.712 ± 0.034,1.202 ± 0.048,0.691 ± 0.042,F value was 1.923,6.765,2.719,and P value was 0.063,0.000,0.016,respectively).Compared with H group,HIF-1α was decreased with a prolonged duration of reoxygenation in H/R group,but there was no significant difference in value among different time points (F=1.280,P=0.081).H/R + LPS group:pIκB-o,pNF-κBp65,COX-2,HIF-1α showed no sign of degradation with the prolonged duration of reoxygenation,and their expression increased to maximum analogously at R2-3 h (3.302 ± 0.061,2.315 ± 0.055,2.017 ± 0.043,2.413 ± 0.098,Fvalue was 4.614,1.652,5.970,2.076,and Pvalue was 0.001,0.067,0.000,0.037,respectively).Emodin group:emodin when co-treated with H/R + LPS inhibited the expression of HIF-1o and NF-κB pathways with a dose-effect relationship (P<0.05 or P<0.01).Emodin at the dose of 80 μmol/L showed most marked inhibition (2.599 ± 0.130,1.772 ± 0.089,2.590 ± 0.129,2.518 ± 0.125).However,after treatment of emodin did not show such effect.② After treatment with H/R + LPS,there were morphological changes in cells:vacuoles,deformation and fusion.The speed of cell growth became much slower compared with H group.③ Emodin (20-80 μmol/L) had no significant effect on cell proliferation.Although emodin produced biological effect in this concentration range,it had no cellular toxicity.Conclusions Both hypoxia and inflammation can activate the hypoxia pathway of HIF-1α and the pro-inflammatory pathway of NF-κB,but different stimuli cause varying degrees of activation in these two pathways.In H/R group,both pathways were weakened during reoxygenation.However,in H/R + LPS group,the proteins remained to show a relatively high expression during the process of reoxygenation.This may be related to the pathophysiological mechanism of intestinal ischemia/reperfusion injury:hypoxia/reperfusion injury and LPS act together to destroy the intestinal epithelial cells and induce gut-derived sepsis.Emodin may inhibit inflammation by blocking HIF-1α/NF-κB-COX-2 signaling pathways.

Obiective To explore the dynamics of tidal breathing pulmonary function in infants with recurrent wheeze and its clinical signiifcance. Methods Eighty (80) infants with recurrent wheeze from October 2013 to February 2014 were enrolled and divided into asthma predictive index positive (n=25) and asthma predictive negative (n=55) groups, and another 20 healthy children were enrolled as control group. Tidal breath pulmonary function at the time of admission (acute phase), leaving hospital (remission phase), and a week after discharge (admission phase) were tested, the ratio of time taken to reach peak expiratory lfow to total expiratory time(TPTEF/TE)and ratio of peak expiratory volume to total expiratory volume(VPEF/VE) between groups were compared. Results From acute phase and remission phase to admission phase, TPTEF/TE, VPEF/VE were elevated in positive group and negative group showing signiifcant statistical difference between phases (P=0.000). In acute phase, TPTEF/TE, VPEF/VE showed no statistical difference (P>0.05) between positive group and negative group, when compared with control group, TPTEF/TE, VPEF/VE were signiifcantly lower in positive and negative groups than that in control group (P<0.05). In remission phase, TPTEF/TE, VPEF/VE in negative group were higher than that in positive group, but significantly lower than that in control group (P<0.05). In admission phase, TPTEF/TE and VPEF/VE in negative group and control group showed no statistical difference (P>0.05), but significantly higher than that in positive group (P<0.05). Conclusions Lung function impairment duration was longer in asthma predictive index positive children than in asthma predictive index negative children. The tidal breathing pulmonary function test can provide objective clinical indicators for infants with recurrent wheeze to predict asthma.
