Protective effect and mechanism of Panax notoginseng saponins myocardial targeting liposomes on endotoxemic myocardial injury mice

  • 摘要: 目的: 研究三七总皂苷心肌靶向脂质体(PAC-L-PNS)对内毒素血症心肌损伤小鼠的心肌保护作用,并探讨其可能的作用机制。方法: 将50只雄性C57BL/6J小鼠随机分为正常组、模型组、PAC-L-PNS组、三七总皂苷普通脂质体(L-PNS)组和三七总皂苷(PNS)组,每组10只。PAC-L-PNS组、L-PNS组和PNS组分别尾静脉注射相应药物,正常组和模型组小鼠尾静脉注射等体积空白脂质体,连续给药5 d,末次给药4 h后,正常组小鼠腹腔注射生理盐水,其余各组小鼠分别腹腔注射脂多糖(LPS,10 mg/kg)建立心肌损伤模型。造模12 h后处死小鼠,采用TUNEL染色和苏木精—伊红(HE)染色分别观察各组小鼠心肌细胞凋亡及心肌组织病理变化;检测仪检测小鼠血清中肌酸激酶(CK)和乳酸脱氢酶(LDH)的活性;采用酶联免疫吸附法(ELISA)检测血清中 IL-6、IL-1β、TNF-α 和 MCP-1 的含量;采用 RT-qPCR 法检测小鼠心肌组织NF-κB P65、IκBα、TLR4IRAK1 mRNA的表达;此外,进行血管刺激性、溶血性试验初步评价PAC-L-PNS的安全性。结果: PAC-L-PNS几乎无溶血和血管刺激性现象,生物相容性良好。与正常组比较,模型组小鼠心肌细胞凋亡率显著升高(P<0.01),心肌组织损伤较严重。与模型组比较,PAC-L-PNS组和L-PNS组小鼠心肌凋亡细胞显著减少(P<0.01),组织病变有所改善,PNS组小鼠无显著变化。与正常组比较,模型组小鼠CK、LDH活性、IL-6、IL-1β、TNF-α和MCP-1含量、TLR4、IRAK1、NF-κB P65IκBα mRNA表达均显著升高(P<0.01)。与模型组比较,PAC-L-PNS组小鼠CK、LDH活性、各炎症因子含量、TLR4、IRAK1、NF-κB P65、IκBα mRNA表达均显著降低(均P<0.05)。与L-PNS组和PNS组比较,PAC-L-PNS组CK活性、各炎症因子含量、TLR4、IRAK1 mRNA表达均显著下降(均P<0.05)。结论: PAC-L-PNS对LPS致内毒素血症心肌损伤具有明显的保护作用,可减轻心脏组织的病变,其机制可能与抑制炎症因子产生有关。

     

    Abstract: Objective: To observe the cardioprotective effect of Panax notoginseng saponins myocardial targeting liposomes (PAC-L-PNS) on mice with endotoxemic myocardial injury and explore the possible mechanism. Methods: Fifty male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into normal, model, PAC-L-PNS, normal liposomes of PNS (L-PNS) and PNS groups, with 10 mice in each group. The PAC-L-PNS, L-PNS and PNS groups were injected with corresponding drugs in the tail vein, respectively. The mice in the normal and model groups were injected with the same volume of blank liposomes in the tail vein for 5 days, and 4 h after the last dose, mice in the normal group were intraperitoneally injected with saline, and mice in the other groups were intraperitoneally injected with lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 10 mg/kg) to establish a myocardial injury model. Mice were executed 12 hours after modeling, TUNEL staining and HE staining were used to observe the apoptosis of cardiomyocytes and histopathological changes of myocardium in each group; the activities of creatine kinase (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in serum were detected by detector; the contents of IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α and MCP-1 in serum were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA); the mRNA expression of NF-κB P65, IκBα, TLR4 and IRAK1 in mouse myocardial tissues were determined by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR); in addition, vascular irritation and hemolytic assays were performed to preliminarily evaluate the safety of PAC-L-PNS. Results: PAC-L-PNS was virtually free of hemolytic and vascular irritation phenomena and was biocompatible. Compared with the normal group, the apoptosis rate of cardiomyocytes was significantly higher in the model group mice (P<0.01), and myocardial tissue injury was more severe. Compared with the model group, mice in the PAC-L-PNS and L-PNS groups had significantly fewer myocardial apoptotic cells (P<0.01) and improved histopathology, and there was no significant difference in mice in the PNS group. Compared with the normal group, CK, LDH activity, IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, and MCP-1 content, TLR4, IRAK1, NF-κB P65, and IκBα mRNA expression were significantly elevated in mice in the model group (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, CK, LDH activity, content of each inflammatory factor, TLR4, IRAK1, NF-κB P65, and IκBα mRNA expression were significantly lower in mice in the PAC-L-PNS group (all P<0.05). CK activity, content of each inflammatory factor, TLR4, and IRAK1 mRNA expression were significantly decreased in the PAC-L-PNS group compared with the L-PNS and PNS groups (all P<0.05). Conclusion: PAC-L-PNS has a significant protective effect on LPS-induced endotoxemic myocardial injury, and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of inflammatory factor production and attenuation of cardiac tissue lesions.
