Abstract

This study aims to explore the effect of silence of NOD-like receptor family, pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome on advanced glycation end products (AGEs)-induced myocardial injury. Methods  The myocardial injury model was indued by AGEs. NLRP3 was silenced by shRNA. H9c2 cells were divided into four groups: H9c2 (control group); AGEs group; AGEs+sh-Ctrl group; AGEs+sh-NLRP3 group. The latter two groups of cells will first shRNA control （sh-Ctrl） and shRNA-NLRP3 （sh-NLRP3） plasmids were transfected into H9c2 cells, the last 3 cells were then treated for 24 h with 100 mg/L AGEs, establishment of H9c2 damage model, control cells were treated with solvent for 24 h; Apoptosis was measured by Hoechst33258 staining. The levels of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-18 and IL-1β were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The protein levels of NLRP3, apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing CARD (ASC), Caspase-3, Caspase-9, nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) P65 and p-P65 were tested by Western blot. The nuclear NF-κB P65 levels were detected by immunofluorescent staining. Results  The expressions of NLRP3, ASC, Caspase-3 and Caspase-9 in AGEs group and AGEs+sh-Ctrl group was higher than control group ( P<0.05). Compared with AGEs group, the expressions of NLRP3, ASC, Caspase-3 and Caspase-9 in AGEs+sh-NLRP3 group was decreased ( P<0.05). Compared with control group, the apoptosis and the levels of IL-6, IL-18 and IL-1β in AGEs group and AGEs+sh-Ctrl group were elevated (P<0.05). The apoptosis and the levels of IL-6, IL-18 and IL-1β in AGEs+sh-NLRP3 group were lower than those of AGEs group ( P<0.05). The phosphorylation of NF-κB P65 and nuclear NF-κB P65 in AGEs group and AGEs+sh-Ctrl group were higher than control group (P<0.05). Compared with AGEs group, the phosphorylation of NF-κB P65 and nuclear NF-κB P65 in AGEs+sh-NLRP3 group were reduced ( P<0.05). Conlusion  Silence of NLRP3 inflammasome alleviates AGEs-induced apoptosis and inflammatory response in myocardial cell via inhibiting NF-κB P65 activation.
