Abstract
Objective To investigate the effect of pachymic acid(PA)on HIEC-6 inflammatory response of intestinal epithelial cells infected by Fusobacterium nucleatum(Fn)and its possible mechanism.Methods HIEC-6 cells were divided into control group,model group(1× 108 CFU·mL-1 Fn infection),experimental-L group(1× 108 CFU·mL-1 Fn+2 μmol·L-1 PA),experimental-M group(1× 108CFU·mL-1 Fn+4 μmol·L-1 PA),experimental-H group(1× 108 CFU·mL-1 Fn+8 μmol·L-1 PA),pcDNA-TLR4 group(1 × 108 CFU·mL-1 Fn+8 μmol·L-1 PA+transfected pcDNA-TLR4).After 12 h of treatment,the cell proliferation was detected by cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)test and Edu test respectively.The expression of inflammatory cytokines was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR)respectively.The apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry.Western blot assay was used to detect the expression level of cell related proteins.Results The apoptosis rates of control,model,experimental-L,experimental-M,experimental-H and pcDNA-TLR4 groups were(3.51±0.31)％,(23.38±1.85)％,(16.74±0.54)％,(12.10±1.44)％,(8.89±0.63)％and(14.87±0.88)％,respectively;IL-8 content were(23.25±1.41),(79.69±4.37),(68.94±2.63),(51.46±2.56),(34.18±2.63)and(71.09±5.08)pg·mL-1,respectively;IL-1β contents were(8.81±0.49),(51.65±2.13),(35.98±3.47),(24.83±2.47),(14.79±1.25)and(43.89±1.59)pg·mL-1.Compared between model group and control group,compared between experimental-L,experimental-M,experimental-H groups and model group,compared between pcDNA-TLR4 group and experimental-H group,the differences of the above indexes were all statistically significant(all P＜0.05).Conclusion Pachymaric acid may improve the apoptosis of Fn infected intestinal epithelial cells by inhibiting TLR4/NF-κB pathway and inflammatory response.关键词
