摘要: | 心肌病變和心肌結構上的改變及心臟肥大有關。血管加壓素II(angiotensin II (AngII))在之前的報到中發現在H9c2心肌原母細胞中可刺激類胰島生長激素II (insulin growth factor 2 (IGFII))及IGF-2接受器(IGF-2R)之表現及接下來的血壓上升和心臟肥大。雌激素接受器(estrogen receptors (ERs))對心肌細胞具有保護作用。丹參酮 IIA (tanshinone IIA)是一個從丹參中發現之一個主成分,被發現保護心肌細胞免於因不同之刺激因子造成之凋亡。本研究之目的在於探討丹參是否透過ERs以抑制AngII在H9c2心肌原母細胞中造成之β-catenin及IGF-2R訊息傳遞路徑和細胞傷害。AngII在H9c2心肌原母細胞中造成肥大及使發炎蛋白表現增加。但是,TSN透過ERs減少了這些現象。AngII造成了MAPKs、IGF-2R和肥大蛋白明顯上升。這些現象也是被TSN透過ERs所減少。最後,AngII引發了heat shock factor 1 (HSF1)之磷酸化、使SIRT1減少及細胞膜上之IGF-2R分子分佈增加。相反地,TSN透過了ERs減少HSF1磷酸化和細胞膜上IGF-2R並且使SIRT1表現上升。所以,TSN能夠在H9c2心肌原母細胞中透過ERs以抑制AngII所誘導之IGF-2R訊息傳遞路徑及肥大。
心肌病變和心肌結構上的改變、心臟肥大、凋亡、纖維化及發炎有關。血管加壓素II (angiotensin II (AngII))在H9c2心肌原母細胞中可刺激類胰島生長激素II (insulin growth factor 2 (IGFII))之表現及之後的凋亡。雌激素接受器 (estrogen receptors (ERs))保護心肌細胞免於凋亡及纖維化。丹參酮 IIA (tanshinone IIA)是一個從丹參中發現之一個主成分,被發現保護心肌細胞免於因不同之刺激因子造成之凋亡。本研究之目的在於探討丹參是否透過ERs以抑制AngII在H9c2心肌原母細胞中引發之β-catenin及IGF-2R訊息傳遞路徑、凋亡和纖維化。AngII造常成了IGF-1R磷酸化之減少及β-catenin和IGF-2R上升。TSN則隨著劑量增加透過了ERs逆轉了此一現象並且減少了caspase-3和ERK1/2磷酸化。然後,TSN顯著地抑制了AngII引發之凋亡及纖維化。所以,tanshinone IIA能夠在H9c2心肌原母細胞中透過ERs以減低AngII引發之β-catenin和IGF-2R訊息傳遞路徑、凋亡及纖維化。
Cardiomyopathy involves changes in myocardial ultrastructure and cardiac hypertrophy. Angiotensin II (AngII) has previously been shown to stimulate the expression of IGF-2 and IGF-2R in H9c2 cardiomyoblasts and increase of blood pressure, and cardiac hypertrophy. Estrogen receptors (ERs) exert protective effects, such as anti-hypertrophy in cadiomyocytes. Tanshinone IIA (TSN), a main active ingredient from a Chinese medical herb, Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge (Danshen), was shown to protect cardiomyocytes hypertrophy by different stress signals. We aimed to investigate whether TSN protected H9c2 cardiomyocytes from AngII-induced activation of IGF-2R pathway and hypertrophy by mediating through ERs. AngII resulted in H9c2 cardiomyoblast hypertrophy and increased inflammatory molecular markers. These were down-regulated by TSN via estrogen receptors. AngII resulted in elevation in MAPKs, IGF-2R and hypertrophic protein markers. These, again, were reduced by addition of the phytoestrogen with activation of ERs. Finally, AngII induced phosphorylation of heat shock factor-1 (HSF1) and decreased sirtuin-1 (SIRT1). In addition, AngII also caused an increase in distribution of IGF-2R molecules on cell membrane. In contrast, TSN reduced HSF1 phosphorylation and cell surface IGF-2R while elevating SIRT1 via ERs. TSN was capable of attenuating AngII-induced IGF-2R pathway and hypertrophy through ERs in H9c2 cardiomyoblast cells.
