Objective To investigate the protective effect of insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1)precondi-tioning on hypoxic injury in H9c2 rat cardiomyocytes and its mechanism.Methods H9c2 cells were randomly divided into four groups,control group,hypoxia group(CoCl2 group),hypoxia+IGF-1 pretreatment group(CoCl2+IGF-1 group),hypoxia+IGF-1 pretreatment+phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase(PI3K)/protein kinase B(Akt)pathway specific inhibitor LY294002 group(CoCl2+IGF-1+LY294002 group).CCK8 assay was used to detect the survival rate of H9c2 cells,and Tunel assay was used to detect the apoptosis of H9c2 cells,DCFH-DA probe method was used to detect the reactive oxygen species(ROS)level of H9c2 cells in each group.The activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD)and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)in culture supernatant were detected by kit.The levels of glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px)and malondialdehyde(MDA)in culture supernatant were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Western blot was used to detect the expression of pro-apoptotic protein B cell lymphoma 2 associated X protein(Bax),Caspase-3,anti-apoptot-ic protein Bcl-2,pathway proteins Akt and phosphorylated Akt(p-Akt)in H9c2 cells.Results IGF-1 could increase cell viability(P<0.05),reduced cell apoptosis rate(P<0.05),reduced ROS level(P<0.05),re-duced MDA production(P<0.05),reduced LDH activity(P<0.05),and increased SOD and GSH-Px activi-ties(P<0.05).It also promoted the expression of p-Akt(P<0.05),reduced the expression of pro-apoptotic proteins Bax and Caspase-3(P<0.05),and increased the expression of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2(P<0.05).After the addition of PI3K pathway specific inhibitor LY294002,the protective effect of IGF-1 on hy-poxic H9c2 cells disappeared.Conclusion IGF-1 protects cardiomyocytes from hypoxia injury by inhibiting oxidative stress and apoptosis of cardiomyocytes through activating PI3K/Akt pathway and improving the survival rate of cardiomyocytes.

This study investigated the effects of bile duct ligation(BDL)-induced liver injury on the function and expression of organic cation transporter 1/2(OCT1/2)at blood brain barrier(BBB)and their potential mechanisms.BDL rat model was constructed,and physiological and biochemical parameters,BBB integrity,cortical OCT1/2 protein expression and function,and plasma chenodeoxycholic acid(CDCA)level were then examined by kits,Western blot,and LC-MS.Physiological and biochemical parameters,plasma bile acid levels,and cortical OCT1/2 protein expression were determined in rats after ig administration of CDCA for 14 d.The results showed that serum aspartate aminotransferase(AST),alanine aminotransferase(ALT),and alkaline phosphatase(ALP)levels increased,plasma CDCA level increased,the brain-to-blood concentration ratio(Kp)of amantadine decreased,while cortical Claudin-5 and Occludin did not significantly change,OCT1 expression was downregulated,while OCT2 did not significantly change in BDL rats.Serum AST,ALT,and ALP levels did not significantly change,plasma CDCA level increased,cortical OCT1 expression was downregulated,and OCT2 did not significantly change in rats after ig administration of CDCA.This study suggests that downregulation of OCT1 function and expression at BBB of BDL rats is related to elevated CDCA in plasma.
