AIM To investigate the effect of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) on heart after myocardial infarction (MI) in rats and its related molecular mechanism. METHODS Fifty male SD rats were divided into sham group, model group and model+PGE1 group. The MI rat model was established by ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery. Cardiac function in the rats was detected by echocardiogaphy. The myocardial histomorphologic changes were evaluated by HE and Masson staining. The MI area was measured by TTC staining. The cardiomyocyte death was detected by TUNEL staining. The protein levels of endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS)-related factors glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) and caspase-12, and apoptosis-related factors Bcl-2, Bax and cleaved caspase-3 were determined by immunofluorescence staining and Western blot. RESULTS Compared with sham group, the cardiac function in model group was decreased, with significant myocardial pathological changes. The MI area was enlarged, and the death of cardiomyocytes was promoted. The protein levels of GRP78, CHOP, caspase-12, Bax and cleaved caspase-3 in the myocardial tissues were significantly increased, while Bcl-2 was decreased (P <0.01). Compared with model group, the cardiac function in model+PGE1 group was significantly improved, and the myocardial pathological damage was significantlty attenuated. The MI area and myocardial cell death were significantly reduced. The protein levels of GRP78, CHOP, caspase-12, Bax and cleaved caspase-3 in the myocardial tissues were significantly decreased, while Bcl-2 was increased (P <0.01). CONCLUSION PGE1 reduces collagen deposition and inflammation, and improves cardiac function by reducing ERS level, thus protecting cardiomyocytes from MI damage. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate whether excessive endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) is involved in the protective mechanism of Panax quinquefolium saponins (PQS) against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in rat myocardium. METHODS: The model of myocardial I/R injury in vivo was made by ligating the left anterior descending artery for 45 min followed by 24 h of reperfusion in SD rats. The hemodynamics and serum content of cardiac troponin T (cTnT) were measured. The myocardial infarct size was measured by Evans blue and 2, 3, 5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining. Cardiomyocyte apoptosis was detected using in situ TDT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL). The protein levels of glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), calreticulin (CRT), C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP), caspase-12, apoptosis-associated proteins Bax and Bcl-2 were determined by Western blotting. RESULTS: Compared with I/R group, the mean arterial pressure in PQR+IR group was decreased by 32.0%, and left ventricular±dp/dtmax was increased by 64.0% and 35.0%, respectively.The serum content of cTnT was decreased by 53.3%, the percentage of area of necrosis (AN)/area at risk (AAR) was reduced by 65.5% and the apoptosis rate was decreased by 54.9%.The myocardial pathological changes were improved. Bcl-2 protein expression was increased by 110.0% and that of Bax was decreased by 47.8%. CRT protein expression was decreased by 43.4 %, CHOP protein expression and the protein level of cleaved caspase-12 were decreased by 38.6% and 23.7% in PQS+I/R group. CONCLUSION: PQS alleviates I/R injury in myocardium by inhibition of excessive ERS. 相似文献

AIM:To study the effect of Panax quinquefoliumsaponin (PQS) on cardiomyocyte apoptosis induced by thapsigargin (TG). METHODS:Primary cultured cardiomyocytes from neonatal SD rats were divided into control group, TG group, PQS (40 mg/L, 80 mg/L and 160 mg/L)+TG group, si-PERK+TG group, and mock+TG group. The cells were treated with 1 μmol/L TG for 24 h to induce apoptosis. The PERKgene in the cardiomyocytes was knocked down by RNAi. The cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay. Apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. Wes-tern blotting was used to determine the expression of ERS molecules GRP78, CRT, ATF4 and CHOP, anti-apoptosis protein Bcl-2 and pro-apoptosis protein Bax. RESULTS:Compared with control group, TG significantly and the apoptosis, reduced the cell viability (P<0.05), increased the phosphorylation of PERK and eIF2α, increased the expression of GRP78, CRT, ATF4, CHOP and pro-apoptosis protein Bax, and decreased the expression of anti-apoptosis protein Bcl-2 (P<0.05). Compared with TG group, PQS treatment (160 mg/L) significantly reduced the apoptosis and increased the cell viability (P<0.05). All the 3 different concentrations of PQS significantly increased the expression of anti-apoptosis protein Bcl-2 and reduced the expression of pro-apoptosis protein Bax (P<0.05) in a dose-dependent manner. PQS pretreatment and knockdown of PERK both reduced the protein levels of GRP78, CRT, PERK, p-PERK, eIF2α, p-eIF2α, ATF4, CHOP and pro-apoptosis protein Bax, and increased the expression of anti-apoptosis protein Bcl-2 (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: PQS at concentration of 160 mg/L attenuated cardiomyocyte apoptosis induced by TG. PQS had the similar effect as PERKknockdown on cardiomyocyte apoptosis. The mechanism may be associated with inhibiting PERK-eIF2α-ATF4-CHOP pathway of ERS-related apoptosis. 相似文献

AIM:To investigate whether mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) and the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway are involved in the protective mechanism of Panax quinquefolium saponin (PQS) against cardiomyocyte apoptosis after ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in rat myocardium. METHODS:Ninety healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into sham group, I/R group, PQS (200 mg·kg-1·d-1) +I/R group, cyclosporine A (CsA) group, CsA (10 mg·kg-1) +I/R group and PQS +CsA +I/R group. The model of myocardial I/R injury in vivo was established by ligating the left anterior descending artery (LAD) for 30 min followed by 120 min of reperfusion in the rats. The serum activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was measured by automatic chemistry analyzer. The myocardial infarct size was measured by Evans blue and 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining. Cardiomyocyte apoptosis was detected by in situ TDT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL). The protein levels of Bcl-2, Bax, cleaved caspase-3 and cytosolic cytochrome C were determined by Western blotting. ΔΨm was measured by laser scanning confocal microscopy and fluorescence microplate reader. RESULTS:Compared with I/R group, the serum content of LDH,the infarction size in PQS+I/R group, CsA+I/R group and PQS+CsA+I/R group and the myocardial apoptotic index were decreased. Compared with I/R group, the fluorescence intensity of mitochondria after JC-1 staining was enhanced in PQS+I/R group, CsA+I/R group and PQS+CsA+I/R group, and the relative fluorescence units (RFU) of ΔΨm were improved in those 3 groups. In PQS+I/R group, CsA+I/R group and PQS+CsA+I/R group, the protein expression of Bcl-2 was increased, and that of Bax was decreased compared with I/R group. Moreover, in those 3 groups, the protein levels of cleaved-caspase-3 and cytosolic cytochrome C were decreased compared to I/R group, respectively. CONCLUSION:PQS attenuates myocardial injury and cardiomyocyte apoptosis during I/R, and the protective mechanisms of PQS were associated with the modulation of ΔΨm and the inhibition of mitochondrial apoptosis pathway. 相似文献

AIM: To clarify the protective effect of long-term administration of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitor fluvastatin on ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarction (MI) in rats and its mechanisms. METHODS: Myocardial infarction were established by ligated left coronary anterior artery in SD rats, 24 hours after the operation, the survival rats were treated by gavage fluvastatin (20 mg·kg-1·d-1) or distilled water for 8 weeks. Doppler echocardiography, homodynamic and cardiac histomorphometry were used to assess the ventricular remodeling and cardiac function. The plasma levels of total cholesterol (Tch), creatinine (Cr), glutamic-oxal (o) acetic transaminase (AST), lipid peroxidation (LPO), glutathione perioxidase (GSH-PX), nitrogen monoxide (NO2-/NO3-) were detected. RESULTS: The Tch, Cr and AST were not significant difference in groups. Left ventricular end-diastole pressure, right relative weight, left ventricular posterior wall thickness, collagen volume fraction and the lung weight were decreased in AMI+fluvastatin group compared to AMI group (P<0.05, P<0.01); The levels of LPO, NO2-+NO3- in plasma and LPO in myocardium decreased, but plasma GSH-PX level increased in AMI+fluvastatin group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Fluvastatin ameliorates the ventricular structural remodeling in a rat model of infarction, and delays the development of heart failure. The anti-oxidation mechanism of fluvastatin may take part in this process. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of long-term TCV116 on left ventricular remodeling and heart function after myocardial infarction. METHODS: Myocardial infarction (MI) was caused by ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery in rats. One week after the surgical performance, the surviving rats were randomly assigned to the following treatment protocols: (1) MI rats with no therapy; (2) MI rats treated with TCV116 2 mg/kg per day; (3) Sham-operated control; (4) Sham-operated rats, treated with TCV116 2 mg/kg per day. At 22 weeks, cardiac hemodynamic parameters such as MAP, LVSP, dp/dtmax and LVEDP, and histomorphometric parameters such as LVW/BW and LVCA/BW were measured, mRNA of cardiac genes such as βMHC, BNP, TGF-β1, collagen I and III were quantified, and survival rates were calculated. RESULTS: Compared with sham-operated rats, MI rats without therapy showed significant increases in histomorphometric parameters as well as in mRAN expressions of cardiac genes (P<0.01); While their hemodynamic parameters were significantly impaired (P<0.01), and survival duration shortened (P<0.05). Compared with MI rats without therapy, MI rats treated with TCV116 showed significant attenuation of mRAN expression of cardiac genes (P<0.01); While their hemodynamic parameters were significantly improved (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and survival duration extended (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Treatment with long-term angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonist may improve left ventricular remodeling and cardiac function after MI in rats. 相似文献

Arrhythmia is common in cardiovascular diseases, especially after myocardial infarction. This article reviews the electrophysiologic changes following myocardial infarction at different phases. Modulations of ion channel function that might contribute to electrical remodeling, such as cellular (autocrine/paracrine) factors and regulators of ion channel gene, are discussed. Unresolved problems in ventricular electrical remodeling after myocardial infarction are also considered. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the role of curcumin (Cur) in attenuating lung ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury by inhibiting c-Jun N-terminal kinase(JNK) pathway and excessive endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) in mice. METHODS: Mouse model of lung I/R injury in situ was established in the left lung in vivo. Sixty mice were randomly divided into 6 groups (n=10 in each group), including sham group, I/R group, dimethyl sulfoxide solvent control group (I/R+DMSO group) and curcumin groups (I/R+ low, medium or high dose of Cur group). Left lung tissue was isolated after the experiment. The ratio of wet lung weight to dry lung weight (W/D), and total lung water content (TLW) were measured. The histological structure and ultrastructure of the left lung were observed under light and electron microscopes, and scored by alveolar damage index of quantitative assessment (IQA). The mRNA expression and protein levels of JNK and GRP78 were measured by RT-PCR and Western blotting. Apoptotic cells in the lung tissue were determined by TUNEL method. RESULTS: Compared with sham group, all indexes above in I/R group and DMSO group were significantly increased. No significant difference of all indexes between I/R group and DMSO group was observed. Compared with DMSO group, the indexes above in low, medium and high doses of Cur groups were decreased, especially in high dose of Cur group, but the expression level of GRP78 had no statistical difference. CONCLUSION: I/R induces excessive ERS in the lung tissue and results in lung injury. Cur has a protective effect on lung against I/R injury, which may be related to inhibition of apoptosis mediated by JNK pathway in ERS. 相似文献

AIM: To determine the effects of Tongxinluo(TXL) on connexin 43(Cx43) remodeling and ventricular arrhythmia(VA) after myocardial infarction(MI) in rats. METHODS: Male SD rats were randomly divided into sham-operated(sham) group(n=25) and operation group(n=75). The left anterior descending(LAD) was ligated in operated group, while the rats in sham group only underwent pericardiotomy. The rats in operation group which survived for 3 d after operation were randomly assigned to TXL group and MI group. The rats in TXL group was administrated with TXL(2 g·kg-1·d-1, intragastric administration) for 4 weeks, while normal saline was applied to the rats in sham group and MI group. The levels of interleukin-1β(IL-1β) and endothelin-1(ET-1) in the tissue from the border zone were measured by ELISA after treatment. The distribution and the mRNA and protein expression of Cx43 were detected by immunohistochemical staining, RT-PCR and Western blotting, respectively. The burst pacing was used to induce ventricular arrhythmia(VA). RESULTS: Compared with sham group, the levels of IL-1β and ET-1 and the incidence of VA were significantly increased, while the mRNA and protein expression of Cx43 was markedly reduced with irregular distribution in MI group(P<0.05). Compared with MI group, the levels of IL-1β and ET-1 and the incidence of VA were significantly reduced, while the expression of Cx43 at mRNA and protein levels was markedly increased with augmented linear distribution in the myocardial cell intercalated disc in TXL group(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: TXL reduces the incidence of VA after MI via inhibiting the Cx43 remodeling. 相似文献

AIM:To investigate the role of endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) in the process of Bim-mediated cardiomyocyte apoptosis induced by hypoxia. METHODS:Cardiomyocytes were isolated from neonatal Sprague-Dawley rats aged 1~3 days, and primarily cultured in vitro. The antibody targeting α-striated muscle actin was used to identify the cardiomyocytes. The siRNAs targeting bim were transfected into cardiomyocytes with liposome, followed by detecting the expression of Bim by Western blotting. Cardiomyocytes were divided into five groups: blank control group, hypoxia group, hypoxia+liposome group, hypoxia+negative control siRNA group and hypoxia+Bim-siRNA group. The cell viability was determined by MTT assay, and the cell apoptotic rate and the intracellular calcium concentration were measured by flow cytometry. The protein expression of caspase-12 and inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) was detected by Western blotting. RESULTS:Immunohistochemical identification confirmed that rat cardiomyocytes were successfully cultured. Green fluorescence was observed in the cells transfected with negative control siRNA under fluorescence microscope. The expression of Bim was obviously inhibited after transfected with Bim-siRNAs and the silencing efficiency of Bim-siRNA-2 was the highest (86.73%). Compared with blank control group, the viability of cardiomyocytes in hypoxia group was significantly reduced (P<005). Compared with hypoxia+negative control siRNA group, the viability of cardiomyocytes in hypoxia+Bim-siRNA group was significantly increased (P<005). The apoptotic rate and the intracellular calcium concentration of cardiomyocytes were obviously increased in hypoxia group (P<0.01), and were both decreased after bim silencing (P<005 or P<0.01). The expression of caspase-12 and IP3 was up-regulated in hypoxia group (P<005), and was down-regulated after bim silencing (P<005 or P<0.01). CONCLUSION: Cardiomyocyte apoptosis induced by hypoxia can be inhibited by silencing the expression of bim gene. Caspase-12 and IP3, as markers of ERS, may participate in the process of Bim-mediated cardiomyocyte apoptosis induced by hypoxia. 相似文献

ATM: To investigate the effects of bisoprolol (Bis) plus peridopril (Per) on myocardial endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) in rats with heart failure.METHODS: Male SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group, sham group, doxorubicin (DOX) group, bisoprolol treatment group (DOX+Bis group), peridopril treatment group (DOX+Per group) and bisoprolol plus peridopril treatment group (DOX+Bis+Per group). A rat model of heart failure was induced by intraperitoneal injection of DOX. Distilled water, bisoprolol, peridopril, and bisoprolol plus peridopril were administrated by gastric gavage for 35 d, respectively. The indexes of cardiac functions and plasma levels of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) were measured, myocardial apoptosis was analyzed by TUNEL assay and myocardial protein expression of GRP78, CHOP, JNK, caspase-12 and SERCA2a was detected by Western blot.RESULTS: Compared with normal control group and sham group, cardiac output (CO), left ventricular fractional shortening (FS), and left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) of the rats in DOX group decreased significantly (P<0.01), the cardiomyocyte apoptotic index increased significantly (P<0.01), the myocardial protein levels of SERCA2a decreased significantly, and GRP78, CHOP, JNK and caspase-12 increased significantly (P<0.01). Compared with DOX group, CO, FS and EF of the rats in DOX+Bis group, DOX+Per group and DOX+Bis+Per group increased significantly (P<0.01), cardiomyocytes apoptotic indexes in DOX+Bis group, DOX+Per group and DOX+Bis+Per group decreased significantly (P<0.01), myocardial protein levels of SERCA2a in DOX+Bis group, DOX+Per group and DOX+Bis+Per group increased significantly, while GRP78, CHOP, SERCA2a, JNK and caspase-12 decreased significantly (P<0.05). Indicators except JNK in DOX+Bis+Per group were changed more significantly than those in DOX+Bis group or DOX+Per group (P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Bisoprolol plus peridopril therapy improves cardiac functions in a rat model of doxorubicin-induced heart failure with more significant effectiveness than using bisoprolol or peridopril alone, which may be related to inhibition of myocardial ERS and apoptosis. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) on the proliferation and apoptosis of human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells and to explore its possible mechanism. METHODS: HepG2 cells were treated with SAHA at different concentrations for 48 h. The proliferation of HepG2 cells was detected by real-time cellular analysis. The protein levels of acetylated histones H3K9 and H3K27, glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), protein kinase R-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK) and p-PERK were determined by Western blot. The cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. RESULTS: Compared with control group, treatment with SAHA at 0.1 μmol/L and 1 μmol/L for 48 h showed no significant inhibitory effect on the proliferation of HepG2 cells, while SAHA at 6 μmol/L and 12 μmol/L significantly inhibited the proliferation of HepG2 cells (P<0.05). The results of Western blot showed that the protein levels of acH3K9, acH3K27, GRP78 and p-PERK increased significantly after treated with SAHA at diffe-rent concentrations for 48 h, while the protein level of PERK was decreased significantly (P<0.05). The results of flow cytometry analysis showed that the apoptotic rates of the HepG2 cells increased with the increase in SAHA concentration. CONCLUSION: SAHA up-regulates the acetylation of H3K9 and H3K27 in the HepG2 cells and induces apoptosis of HepG2 cells by activating the endoplasmic reticulum stress-related apoptosis pathway. 相似文献

AIM: To explore the effect of acteoside on behavioral changes and endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) in prefrontal cortex of depressive rats. METHODS: Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats (n=108) were randomly divided into 6 groups:control group, model group, fluoxetine (20 mg/kg) group, low-dose (30 mg/kg) acteoside group, medium-dose (60 mg/kg) acteoside group and high-dose (120 mg/kg) acteoside group, with 18 rats in each group. The depressive-like rat model was established by chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) combined with solitary way for 28 d. The rats in fluoxetine group and acteoside groups were treated with fluoxetine (20 mg/kg) or acteoside (30 mg/kg, 60 mg/kg and 120 mg/kg) once daily by intragastric administration for 3 weeks. The rats in control group and model group were both given equal volume of saline by intragastric administration for 3 weeks. The behavioral changes were detected by the open-field test and sugar preference experiment. The protein expression of glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) and C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) was assessed by immunofluorescence and Western blot. The caspase-3 activity was measured by spectrophotometer. RESULTS: Compared with control group, the total distance, time spent in the center and sugar intake were all decreased, the expression of GRP78 and CHOP was increased, and the activity of caspase-3 was increased in model group, fluoxetine group and acteoside groups (P<0.05). Compared with model group, the total distance, time spent in the center and sugar intake were increased, the expression of GRP78 and CHOP was reduced, and the activity of caspase-3 was decreased (P<0.05) in fluoxetine group and acteoside groups. CONCLUSION: Acteoside improves depressive-like behaviors in depressive rats, which may be related to the inhibition of ERS and neuronal apoptosis in prefrontal cortex. 相似文献

AIM:To compare the effects of carvedilol, cilazapril and their combination on left ventricular remodeling(LVRM) after acute myocardial infarction(AMI) in rats. METHODS: Twenty-four hours after AMI operation, 100 surviving rats were randomly assigned to: ①AMI control(n= 25), ②AMI+carvedilol(1 mg·kg-1 ·d-1, n= 25)(C1), ③AMI+cilazapril(1 mg·kg-1 ·d-1, n= 25)(Z1), and ④ AMI+combination(n= 25) groups. Sham-operated group(n= 17) were selected randomly. After 4 weeks of therapy with the drugs gastric gavage, hemodynamic and pathological studies were performed. RESULTS: There were no significant differences in MI size among the four AMI groups(all P> 0.05) Left ventricular(LV) end diastolic pressure(LVEDP), volume(LVV), weight(LVW) and septal thickness(STh) were all higher and left ventricular pressure maximal rate of rise and fall(±d p /d t) were lower(all P< 0.01) in AMI group than sham-operated group. The LVEDP, LVV, LVW and STh were all lower and ±dp /dt were higher in Z1, C1, and combination groups than those in AMI group(P< 0.05, P< 0.01), with LVEDP and STh were more lower in the combination group than in the two monotherapy group(P< 0.05, P< 0.01), but there were no significant differences in other variables among the three therapy groups. CONCLUSION: Carvedilol, cilazapril and their combination all can prevent from LVRM after AMI in rats, improve hemodynamics and LV function, with the combination superior. 相似文献

AIMTo investigate the effects of calpain-2 and autophagy-related protein 5 (Atg5) on apoptosis of BRL-3A rat normal liver cells during endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) induced by dithiothreitol (DTT). METH?ODS: BRL-3A cells were treated with DTT at 2.0 mmol/L for 0, 6, 12 and 24 h to induce ERS. Real-time cell analysis (RTCA) was used to measure the effect of DTT on BRL-3A cell proliferation. Apoptosis and cell cycle distribution were analyzed by flow cytometry. The mRNA expression of calpain-2 and Atg5 was detected by real-time PCR. The protein levels of calpain-2, Atg5, Atg7, Atg12 and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3) were determined by Western blot. The interaction between calpain-2 and Atg5 was investigated by co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP). RESULTSThe proliferation of BRL-3A cells treated with DTT was significantly inhibited. The apoptosis of BRL-3A cells was significantly increased after DTT treatment for 6, 12 and 24 h as compared with 0 h group (P <0.05). The cell cycle was arrested in G1 phase after DTT treatment (P <0.05). After DTT treatment for 6, 12 and 24 h, the mRNA expression of calpain-2 and Atg5 in the BRL-3A cells was significantly increased as compared with 0 h group (P <0.05). The protein levels of calpain-2, Atg12 and Atg7 in the cells treated with DTT for 6, 12 and 24 h were significantly higher than those in 0 h group, and the ratio of LC3-II/LC3-I was also significantly higher than that in 0 h group, while Atg5 expression was significantly lower than that in 0 h group (P <0.05). The results of Co-IP found that the anti-calpain-2 antibody precipitated Atg5 protein from the cell lysates, and the anti-Atg5 antibody also precipitated calpain-2 from the cell lysates, which confirmed the interaction between calpain-2 and Atg5. CONCLUSION Calpain-2 may participate in ERS-induced hepatocyte apoptosis by interacting with Atg5. 相似文献

AIM: To observe the changes of endoplasmic reticulum stress-related molecules CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein homologous protein(CHOP) and Tribbles homolog 3(TRB3) in the process of liver fibrosis induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4). METHODS: Male Wistar rats weighing 180 g to 200 g were divided into 4-week normal control group, 8-week normal control group, 4-week liver fibrosis group and 8-week liver fibrosis group. The rats in liver fibrosis groups were induced by subcutaneous injection of 40% CCl4 for 4 weeks or 8 weeks. The pathological changes of the liver were observed under light microscope. The protein level of ATF6 was determined by Western blotting. The protein and mRNA levels of CHOP and TRB3 in the liver were analyzed by immunohistochemistry, Western blotting and real-time PCR, respectively. The apoptosis of hepatocytes was measured by TUNEL assay. RESULTS: Pseudolobuli formed in the liver tissue of hepatic fibrotic rats. Compared with the control rats, the protein level of p90ATF6 was obviously decreased, the protein level of p50ATF6 was obviously increased, and the protein and mRNA levels of CHOP and TRB3 were obviously higher in the hepatocytes of hepatic fibrotic rats. The apoptosis of hepatocytes was also increased in 4-week and 8-week fibrosis groups. CONCLUSION: In the process of liver fibrosis induced by 40% CCl4, the obviously increased expression of endoplasmic reticulum stress-related molecules CHOP and TRB3 at protein and mRNA levels indicates that endoplasmic reticulum stress may play an important role in the liver fibrosis by promoting the apoptosis of hepatocytes. 相似文献
