Effect of Sodium Ferulate on Proliferation, Activation and Collagen Synthesis of Hepatic Stellate Cells Induced by Acetaldehyde
Objective: To investigate the effect of sodium ferulate (SF) on the proliferation
activation and collagen synthesis of rat hepatic stellate cells (HSC-T6) induced by acetaldehyde in vitro and explore its mechanism. Method: HSC-T6 cells were cultured in vitro to establish acetaldehyde-induced HSC-T6 proliferation models. The rats were divided into blank group
acetaldehyde group
colchicine group (2.5 μmol·L-1)
and SF groups (1

400 μmol·L-1). HSC-T6 proliferation was measured by MTS method and the appropriate SF concentration was screened. The effect of SF (400

100 μmol·L-1) on the expression of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) in HSC-T6 cells induced by acetaldehyde was detected by Western blot; type I and type Ⅲ collagen concentrations were detected by Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA); the Hydroxyproline (Hyp) content was detected by hydrolysis method; mRNA expression levels of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)
signal transducers Smad2
Smad3

Smad7
Matrix metallo proteinase 1 (MMP-1) and tissue inhibitors of metallo proteinase-1 (TIMP-1) were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR). Result: As compared with the blank group
200 μmol·L-1 acetaldehyde significantly induced HSC-T6 proliferation in vitro (P<0.01). As compared with the blank group
the proliferation of HSC-T6 in model group was significantly increased (P<0.01)
and the contents of α-SMA
type I
type Ⅲ collagen and Hyp were significantly increased (P<0.01)
the mRNA expression levels of TGF-β1
Smad2
Smad3
Smad4 and Smad7 as well as mRNA expression levels of MMP-1 and TIMP-1 were significantly up-regulated (P<0.01). As compared with the model group
