Effect of Shengmaisan on DCM Rats and TLR-4/NF-B Inflammatory Signal Pathway
Objective:To evaluate the effect of Shengmaisan on rats with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM)
Toll-like receptor-4(TLR-4)/nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells(NF-κB) signaling pathway as well as inflammatory factors. Method:The establishment of dilated cardiomyopathy rats model was induced through intraperitoneal injection with doxorubicin (1 mg·kg-1
twice a week) for 6 weeks
and then observed for 2 weeks
which lasted for eight weeks in total. The rats were randomly divided into four groups:blank group
doxorubicin group
Shengmaisan group and perindopril group. The drug groups were given Shengmaisan and perindopril
while blank group and model group were given equal volume of normal saline. left ventricular internal diameter at end-diastole(LVIDd)
left ventricular internal dimenter at end-systole(LVIDs)
left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) and fractional shortening(FS) were measured by echocardiography. Then the levels of serum brain natriuretic peptide(BNP) and inflammatory factors
including tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) and interleukin-6(IL-6) were tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). TLR-4
NF-κB mRNAs and proteins expressions in rat cardiac muscle were respectively determined. Histopathological characteristics of left ventricular cardiac muscle were observed by hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining and transmission electron microscopy. Result:Compared with blank group
LVIDd and LVISd in the doxorubicin group were increased significantly(P<0.01); LVEF and FS were decreased significantly. Rats serum BNP
TNF-α and IL-6 levels increased significantly(P<0.01); TLR-4
NF-κB mRNA and protein expressions were increased significantly(P<0.01). And the pathological damage of myocardium was increased. Compared with doxorubicin group
LVIDd and LVISd in the Shengmaisan group were decreased significantly(P<0.01); LVEF and FS were increased significantly
Rat serum BNP
TNF-α and IL-6 levels decreased significantly(P<0.01); TLR-4
NF-κB mRNA and protein expressions were decreased significantly(P<0.01). And pathological damage in myocardial tissues was alliviated. Conclusion:Shengmaisan can effectively improve cardiac function and restrain myocardial damage of DCM rats. The mechanisms of action of Shengmaisan can regulate partly TLR-4 and NF-κB mRNA and protein expressions of rats with dilated cardiomyopathy
and restrain downstream inflammatory factors in TLR-4/NF-κB signaling pathways.
