Abstract:
Objective To investigate the mechanism of metformin on oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation(OGD/R)injury in U251 cells.Methods Human glioma cell line U251 cells were cultured and divided into 6groups:blank control group,model group,metformin medium dose group,metformin high dose group,agonist group(Wnt3a,Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway agonist),inhibitor group(metformin+XAV939,Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway inhibitor).Except for the blank control group,the cells in the other groups were subjected to OGD/R for 2h and then reperfusion for 24h to establish the OGD/R model.The animals were treated with met-formin,Wnt3a and XAV939 24h before modeling.Cell viability and toxicity were detected by CCK-8method and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)assay.ROS formation was detected by DHE staining.Glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px),superoxide dismutase(SOD)malond-ialdehyde(MDA),interleukin-6(IL-6),inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)were de-tected by enzyme-linked immunoadsordent assay(ELISA).The protein expression levels of β-catenin,cyclin D1,p-GSK-3β(Ser9)and GSK-3β were detected by Western blot.Results Compared with blank control group,LDH,ROS,MDA,IL-6,iNOS and TNF-α in model group,metformin group,agonist group and inhibitor group were significantly increase.The relative expression lev-els of SOD,GSH-Px,β-catenin,cyclin D1,p-GSK-3β(Ser9)and cell viability were significantly decreased.Compared with mod-el group,the levels of LDH,ROS,MDA,IL-6,iNOS and TNF-α in metformin group and agonist group were significantly decreased,while the relative expression levels of SOD,GSH-Px,β-catenin,cyclin D1,p-GSK-3β(Ser9)and the cell viability were signifi-cantly increased.Compared with metformin group,LDH,ROS,MDA,IL-6,iNOS and TNF-α in metformin group and inhibitor group were significantly increase,the relative expression levels of SOD,GSH-Px,β-catenin,cyclin D1,p-GSK-3 β(Ser9)and the cell viability were significantly decreased.Conclusion Metformin may play a protective role in OGD/R of U251 cells through Wnt/β-cate-nin signaling pathway.
