Quercetin inhibits endothelin-1-induced T-type Ca2+ channel expression in human umbilical arterial smooth muscle cells
摘要
Abstract
AIM : To investigate the effect of quercetin on endothelin - 1 - induced T - type calcium channel ( TCC ) expression in primary cultured human umhilical arterial smooth muscle cells for exploring the protective role of quercetin in cardiovascular system.METHODS : Human umbilical arterial smooth muscle cells were verified by immunocytochemistry.The cells in 2 - 3 passages were used and randomly divided into control group, quercetin alone group, model group and experimental group.The cells in control group were cultured without any drugs for 24 h.The cells in quercetin alone group were cultured with 80 μmol/L quercetin for 24 h.The cells in model group were cultured with ET - 1 at the concentration of 100 nmol/L for 24 h.The cells in experimental groups were pretreated with quercetin for 1 h, then coincubated with 100 nmol/L ET - 1 for 24 h.The concentrations of quercetin used in this study were 20 , 40and 80 μmol/L, respectively.The expression of α1G , a TCC major subunit, was assayed at mRNA and protein levels by RT - PCR and Western hlotting, respectively.The TCC currents( IcaT ) were detected by the technique of whole - cell patch - clamp.RESULTS : Compared with control and experimental group, ICaT density ( P < 0.01 ) and the expression of α1G at mRNA ( P <0.05 ) and protein ( P < 0.01 ) levels in model group were significantly increased.No significant difference in the results of quercetin alone group and control group was observed.CONCLUSION : The protective roles of quercetin in cardiovascular functions are related to the depressive effects of quercetin on ET - 1 - induced increase in both ICaT density and the expression of α1G at mRNA and protein levels in cultured human vascular smooth muscle cells.关键词
