摘要
背景:肝星状细胞的激活、增殖导致肝纤维化,p38丝裂原活化蛋白激酶信号通路可参与调控细胞增殖。目的:探讨SB203580作用于乙醛刺激的大鼠肝星状细胞后p38丝裂原活化蛋白激酶活性变化和细胞增殖变化。方法:体外培养大鼠肝星状细胞株,在乙醛干预的基础上加入不同浓度的p38特异性抑制剂SB203580进行培养,并设置对照。以Westernblot检测磷酸化p38蛋白表达水平变化,MTT比色法检测细胞增殖。结果与结论:乙醛刺激后大鼠肝星状细胞内磷酸化p38水平增强,细胞增殖明显。使用5,10,20μmol/L SB203580能明显抑制乙醛刺激的肝星状细胞增殖(P<0.05),加大浓度至30μmol/L时,抑制作用更明显(P<0.01),抑制率为43.9%,而磷酸化p38水平也降低(P<0.05)。结果证实,抑制p38丝裂原活化蛋白激酶活性可能影响肝星状细胞的增殖。
BACKGROUND:Activation and proliferation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) leads to hepatic fibrosis,and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) signaling pathway has a role in regulating cell proliferation.OBJECTIVE:To explore the p38MAPK activity and cell proliferation of acetaldehyde-induced rat HSCs treated with SB203580.METHODS:Rat HSC strains were cultured in vitro,and divided into blank group,acetaldehyde control group and SB203580 group.The proliferation of HSCs was evaluated by MTT colorimetric assay and the variability of phosphorylated-p38 was examined by Western blot.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:p38 activity increased in acetaldehyde-induced HSCs,and HSCs proliferated significantly;SB203580 (5,10,20μmol/L) could block the activity of p38 in the cells,and inhibit acetaldehyde-induced HSCs proliferation (P〈0.05),when the concentration was increased to 30μmol/L,its inhibitive effect on HSCs proliferation was more significant,and the expression of p-p38 decreased relatively (P〈0.05).The results showed that inhibition of p38MAPK activity can affect HSCs proliferation;p38 signaling pathway may play an important role in the regulation of HSCs proliferation.
