Abstract:
Objective To observe the effect of Huaiqihuang granules(HQH)containing serum on the proliferation in rat glomerular mesangial cells(HBZY-1)cultured with high glucose,and to explore its possible mechanism.Methods HQH and physiological saline were administered orally to SPF grade male SD rats for preparing HQH containing serum and normal serum.HBZY-1 cells were divided into normal glucose group,high glucose group,high glucose+low,medium,and high concentration HQH drug containing serum group(HQH drug containing serum concentration was 5%,10%,and 15%,respectively).The cell proliferation rate of each group was measured by CCK-8 method,and effective HQH drug containing serum was screened for subsequent experiments;Observe the morphology of HBZY-1 cells in each group using an inverted optical microscope and take photos;Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis rate;The assay kit was used to detect the activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD),catalase(CAT),glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px),and malondialdehyde(MDA)in each group of cells;Western blot was used to detect the expression of TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 inflammatory pathway related proteins in each group of cells.Results Compared with the high glucose group,the 5%medicated serum group showed no significant change in cell proliferation rate,while the 10%medicated serum group and 15%medicated serum group showed a significant decrease in cell proliferation rate(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Therefore,10%and 15%concentrations of HQH medicated serum were selected as the subsequent experimental drug treatment groups.After intervention with 10%medicated serum and 15%medicated serum on HBZY-1 cells in a high glucose environment,compared with the high glucose group,the 10%medicated serum group and 15%medicated serum group showed a decrease in cell proliferation,a gradual increase in cell apoptosis,an increase in cell SOD,CAT,GSH-Px activity(P<0.05 or P<0.01),a decrease in MDA levels(P<0.01),the protein expression of TLR4,NLRP3,p-NF-κB p65 and p-IκBα significantly decreased(P<0.01).Conclusion Huaiqihuang granules containing serum can inhibit high glucose induced proliferation and induce apoptosis of HBZY-1 cells,which may be related to the inhibition of cellular oxidative stress and TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 mediated inflammatory signaling pathway.
