硫辛酸烟酸激活Nrf2通路在拮抗蓝光致小鼠视网膜损伤中的作用
The role of lipoic acid-niacin activating the Nrf2 pathway in antagonizing blue light-induced retinal damage in mice
摘要
Abstract
Objective To investigate the protective effect of lipoic acid-niacin(N2L)on blue light-induced retinal in-jury in mice by regulating the nuclear factor-E2-related factor 2(Nrf2)signaling pathway.Methods Forty-eight male C57BL/6 mice were selected and randomly divided into a wild-type group(+)and an Nrf2 knockout group(-).Each group was further randomly subdivided into four parallel subgroups,with six mice in each.These subgroups were designat-ed as Con+,BL+,N2L+,NS+,Con-,BL-,N2L-,and NS-for corresponding treatments.Electroretinography(ERG)was performed to assess retinal function.TUNEL staining was used to detect photoreceptor cell apoptosis in the mouse retinal tissue.Western blot analysis was conducted to measure the expression levels of heme oxygenase-1(HO-1),B-cell lymphoma-2(Bcl-2),and Bcl-2-associated X proteins(Bax)in the mouse retinal tissue.Results Compared with those in the Con+group,the amplitudes of the ERG b-wave and the second peak(OS2)of mouse oscillatory potentials(OPs)in BL+,NS+,BL-,N2L-,and NS-groups were decreased significantly under medium-and high-intensity stim-ulating light(all P<0.05).The cell apoptosis rate and the expression level of Bax proteins in BL+,NS+,BL-,N2L-,and NS-groups were significantly higher than those in the Con+group(all P<0.05).Compared with those in the BL+group,the amplitudes of the ERG b-wave and OS2 of OPs were increased significantly under medium-and high-intensity stimulating light in N2L+and Con-groups(all P<0.05).N2L+and Con-groups had a significantly lower cell apopto-sis rate than the BL+group(P<0.05).BL-and NS-groups had a significantly higher cell apoptosis rate and significant-ly lower Bax levels than the BL+group(all P<0.05).Compared with those in the N2L+group,the amplitudes of the ERG b-wave and OS2 of OPs were reduced significantly under medium-and high-intensity stimulating light in NS+,BL-,N2L-,and NS-groups(all P<0.05).The cell apoptosis rate and Bax levels in NS+,BL-,N2L-,and NS-groups were significantly higher than those in the N2L+group(all P<0.05).The Bax level in the Con-group was significantly lower than that in the N2L+group(P<0.05).Compared with those in the NS+group,the amplitudes of the ERG b-wave and OS2 of OPs were increased significantly under medium-and high-intensity stimulating light in the Con-group(all P<0.05).The cell apoptosis rate and Bax levels in the Con-group were significantly lower than those in the NS+group(P<0.05).Compared with those in the Con-group,the amplitudes of the ERG b-wave and OS2 of OPs were decreased significantly under medium-and high-intensity stimulating light in BL-,N2L-,and NS-groups(all P<0.05).BL-,N2L-,and NS-groups had a significantly higher cell apoptosis rate and Bax levels than the Con-group(all P<0.05).HO-1 and Bcl-2 levels in BL+,N2L+,and NS+groups were significantly higher than those in the Con+group(all P<0.05).Compared with those in the BL+group,HO-1 and Bcl-2 levels were increased significantly in the N2L+group and decreased significantly in Con-,BL-,N2L-,and NS-groups(all P<0.05).HO-1 and Bcl-2 levels in NS+,Con-,BL-,N2L-,and NS-groups were significantly lower than those in the N2L+group(all P<0.05).Con-,BL-,N2L-,and NS-groups showed significantly lower HO-1 and Bcl-2 levels than the NS+group(all P<0.05).The N2L-group had significantly higher HO-1 and Bcl-2 levels than the Con-group(both P<0.05).Conclusion N2L may antag-onize blue light-induced retinal damage in mice by activating the Nrf2 signaling pathway.关键词
