Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of Naoluo Xintong Decoction(NLXTD)on proliferation of rat brain microvascular endothelial cells(BMECs)after oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation(OGD/R)injury and role of the HIF-1α/VEGF pathway in mediating its effect.Methods Using a BMEC model of OGD/R,we tested the effects of 10%NLXTD-medicated rat serum,alone or in combination with 2ME2 or 10%NAKL,on cell proliferation,migration,tube-forming ability and permeability using CCK-8 assay,Transwell chamber assay,tube formation assay and permeability assay.Cellular expressions of VEGF and Notch were detected using ELISA and laser confocal immunofluorescence analysis,and the expressions of HIF-1α,VEGFR2,Notch1,ERK and P-ERK1/2 proteins were detected with Western blotting.Results OGD/R injury significantly decreased viability of BMECs.NLXTD treatment of the cells with OGD/R could significantly promoted cell proliferation,migration and tube formation ability,but these effects were strongly attenuated by application of 2ME2.NLXTD treatment also significantly increased the percentages of VEGF-and Notch-positive cells in the cell models and obviously enhanced the expression levels of HIF-1α,VEGFR2,Notch1 and P-ERK1/2.Conclusion NLXTD promotes proliferation,migration,and tube formation of rat BMECs after OGD/R injury possibly by activating the HIF-1α/VEGF signaling pathway.
