- Abstract: Objective To explore the effects and mechanisms of deoxycholic acid(DCA)on oxidative stress in human BAR-T cells.Methods The human Barrett epithelial cell line BAR-T was cultured in vitro,and the BAR-T cells were intervened with different concentrations of DCA(100,200,and 300 μmol/L)and different action time(30 min,60 min,3 h and 6 h).The mRNA and protein expression of COX-2 were detected by Real-time PCR and Western blotting assay.The intracellular reactive oxygen species(ROS)content was detected by direct microscope observation and flow cytometry,and was compared with that of 200 μmol/L DCA+5 mmol/L NAC(ROS scavenger N-acetylcysteine)group;cellular immunofluorescence was used to detect the entry of cellular p65 protein into the nucleus,which was then compared with 200 μmol/L DCA+PDTC(100 μmol/L,NF-κB pathway inhibitor)group.Results Compared to the control group,DCA increased ROS content in BAR-T cells in a dose-dependent manner.Additionally,5 mmol/L NAC significantly inhibited DCA-induced ROS release.Furthermore,both 200 μmol/L and 300 μmol/L DCA significantly increased COX-2 mRNA expression compared to the control group at the same intervention time.The 6 h groups for both 200 μmol/L and 300 μmol/L DCA showed a significant increase in COX-2 mRNA expression compared to the 1 h group.Compared to the control group,treatment with 200 μmol/L DCA significantly increased the expression of COX-2 protein.Meanwhile,200 μmol/L DCA promoted the nucleation of p65 protein,which was inhibited by PDTC.Conclusion DCA activates the NF-κB signaling pathway and upregulates the expression of COX-2 by elevating the intracellular ROS expression and promoting the entry of p65 protein into the nucleus.
