Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of hedysarum polysacchcaide(HPS)on nuclear transcription factor-κB(NF-κB)/IκB kinase β(IKKβ)signaling pathway in cardiac tissue of db/db mice with diabetic cardiomyopathy(DCM).Methods Altogether 60 7-week-old male db/db mice were randomly divided into model group,control group and experimental-H,-M,-L groups,with 12 mice in each group.In addition,12 db/m mice of the same week age were selected as the normal group.Normal group and model group were given 0.9％NaCl by intragastric administration.Experimental-L,-M,-H groups were given 50,100 and 200 mg·kg-1 HPS suspension by intragastriction,respectively.Control group was given 4 mg·kg-1 rosiglitazone suspension by intragastric administration.Six groups of rats were given the drug once a day for 8 weeks.The contents of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and interleukin-6(IL-6)in myocardial tissue were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The mRNA expression levels of NF-κB and IKKβ in myocardial tissue were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction.The correlation between the expression of NF-κB protein and the content of TNF-α and IL-6 was analyzed.Results The contents of IL-6 in myocardial tissue of normal,model,control and experimental-H groups were(1.24±0.54),(7.72±0.24),(2.90±0.50)and(2.78±0.56)ng·L-1;the contents of TNF-α were(1.96±0.52),(5.25±0.72),(2.84±0.86)and(2.82±0.58)ng·L-1;the mRNA expression levels of NF-κB were I.00±0.00,3.35±0.81,2.05±0.44 and 1.67±0.22;the mRNA expression levels of IKKβ were 1.00±0.00,2.92±0.07,1.51±0.07 and 1.41±0.08,respectively.Compared with the model group,the above indexes of the control and experimental-H groups were statistically significant(P＜0.01,P＜0.05).The expression of NF-κB protein was positively correlated with the content of IL-6 and TNF-α,and the correlation coefficients were 0.866 and 0.740(all P＜0.01).Conclusion HPS can alleviate the damage of myocardial pathology in mice,reduce myocardial collagen deposition and fibrosis,its mechanism may be through regulating the expression of NF-κB/IKKβ signaling pathway to play a role in inhibiting the inflammatory reaction.
