(3) result
(a) impact of content is dripped in the intervention of different concns trans-crocetin on fatty liver cell fat
With after the oil red dyeing, attenuate born of the same parents' ratio of Microscopic observation fat, the result as shown in Figure 1 before and after the fatty liver cell dosing).The cell that adds FFA, the fat born of the same parents' ratio that attenuates is 28.7%, adds behind the lower concentration crocetin fat born of the same parents' ratio that attenuates and drops to 16%, and increase with the increase fat of the intervening concentration born of the same parents' fall that attenuates.Add behind the lower concentration liposome trans-crocetin fat born of the same parents' ratio fall that attenuates and increase, difference is more obvious during lower concentration.
Fig. 2 is oil red dyeing photo, and the result shows, blank group cell (A) edge clear, and nuclear is large, and rare dyeing fat drips in the cell.Singly adding the visible most cells of lipid acid group (B) includes than greasiness and drips.Visible stain fat drips to count and lacks than only adding the lipid acid group in lower concentration crocetin group (C) cell, only has a few fat in the large many cells and drips, and cell state also shows like blank group.The intracellular fat of liposome trans-crocetin intervention group (D) drips number still less.The dosing intervention group is dripped number with respect to the fat of simple FFA group and is obviously reduced, and further specifies the cellular fat that trans-crocetin can be caused by mixed fatty acid in the cell levels prevention.The liposome of trans-crocetin can further improve the fat of cell.
(b) variation of TG content in the fatty liver cell after the trans-crocetin intervention
Triglyceride level TG is the important indicator of cell lactones content, and what Fig. 3 showed is that each group is with respect to the content of TG in the normal group cell.After FFA processes, cause the content of TG in the cell obviously to rise, increased by 363%; And the TG content that has risen is significantly reduced, only risen 230% with respect to normal cell TG value; The increase TG fall of intervening concentration with trans-crocetin obviously increases.Illustrate that certain density trans-crocetin processing can obviously improve the accumulation of fat in the cell.And after adding the trans-crocetin of liposome-treated, the fall of TG obviously increases than simple trans-crocetin, and difference is more obvious during lower concentration.Illustrate that the trans-crocetin liposome also can make the crocetin lipotropy improve.
(c) variation of oxidative stress level in the fatty liver cell after the trans-crocetin intervention
ROS and MDA content are the important indicators of Free Radical Level in the reflection cell.The height of ROS also represents the height of cellular oxidation level to a certain extent, and Fig. 4 can find out, add FFA after, ROS obviously increases, and has raise 44%, illustrates that in the process of fatty acid-induced fatty liver, the oxidation level of cell increases; The ROS content of cell behind the adding lower concentration trans-crocetin, the increase ROS fall of intervening concentration with trans-crocetin obviously increases, the intervention of middle concentration trans-crocetin has only risen 11% with respect to normal cell ROS value, illustrates that trans-crocetin has the effect of removing free radical, improving the Cellular Oxidation level.Behind the trans-crocetin that adds liposome-treated, the fall of ROS increases than simple trans-crocetin intervention group, and difference is more obvious during lower concentration.
MDA is the product of lipid peroxide, can promote free radical lock reaction, and then protein, nucleic acid, lipid etc. are damaged, make the microbial film sex change, thereby cause cell mutation, aging or dead, the variation of MDA also can reflect the snperoxiaized degree of body inner lipid, can indirectly reflect the degree of cellular oxidation damage.Intracellular MDA content reduces (Fig. 5) than lipid acid groups of cells after adding crocetin.The crocetin intervention presents dosage effect, along with the also increase of increase MDA decline of crocetin concentration.Show that the crocetin drug intervention can alleviate the snperoxiaized level of lipid within endothelial cells, thereby alleviate the oxidative damage of fatty liver cell.Behind the crocetin that adds liposome-treated, the fall of MDA increases than simple crocetin intervention group, and difference is more obvious during lower concentration.
(d) variation of antioxidant levels in the fatty liver cell after the trans-crocetin intervention
The important indicator that NADPH also can regulate antioxidant system in the antimer, Fig. 5 shows that NADPH is with respect to the content of blank group, after adding the FAA modeling, intracellular NADPH content obviously reduces (descending 30%) than blank group, add that the NADPH content of cell raises than the FAA group behind the crocetin, middle and high concentration trans-crocetin intervention group has approached or has surpassed normal level.Illustrate trans-crocetin to the esterified process of liver cell except the certain restraining effect of tool, and tool is regulated the balance of Cellular Redox.Behind the trans-crocetin that adds liposome-treated, the ascensional range of NADPH also increases than simple trans-crocetin intervention group, and difference is more obvious during lower concentration.
The content of reduced glutathion (GSH) in Fig. 6 showed cell, the content of GSH can reflect the reduced level state of some systems in the cell, and the ability of removing lipid peroxidation.After FFA processed cell, GSH significantly descended in the cell, dropped to only have originally 11%, and this has further confirmed lipid acid in the process of the fatty liver cell of inducing, and can make that oxidation level improves in the born of the same parents.And the GSH level of lower concentration trans-crocetin group obviously rises (be blank group 65%) than FFA group, and middle and high concentration trans-crocetin group GSH content has approached or above normal group.Behind the trans-crocetin that adds liposome-treated, more obvious to keeping in the born of the same parents GSH reduced level effect.
Reduced glutathion (GSH) but appellation is the first barrier that opposing ROS generates, in tissue, play a part the cytophylaxis factor.Thereby the variation of GSH level is widely used to the index of oxidative damage tool protective effect as estimating exogenous material.Superoxide-dismutase (SOD) is main antioxidase in a kind of organism, can remove superoxide radical, removing superoxide anion that can be special, produce thereby reduce the material that hydroxy radical qiao etc. has more detoxifying function, in the toxicity of defence oxygen, suppress geriatric disease and the important role such as pre-anti-aging.Experimental result shows that cell quasi-SOD activity that FFA processes reduces to originally 71%, and the SOD level of trans-crocetin group intervention group obviously rises than the FFA group, and increases with the increase SOD level of intervening concentration.After adding the trans-crocetin intervention, the SOD activity is replied even above normal, the liposome of trans-crocetin can make intracellular SOD antioxidase level further improve.See Fig. 8.
This experiment shows, GSH and SOD content obviously reduce in the fatty liver cell model, the cell resistance of oxidation relatively a little less than, the oxidative stress level is higher.Adopt the trans-crocetin intervention group of present method preparation then can improve this redox nonequilibrium state, thereby can improve the survival rate of cell.The trans-crocetin intervention effect is strengthened.By changing the trans-crocetin intervention time, namely the different time intervenes before and after induced lipolysis liver cell model, shows that crocetin brings out for fatty liver and has certain prevention and control action kou.
Experimental data adopts mean value ± standard deviation, and (mean ± SD), relatively adopt the T check between group, p<0.05 expression difference has significance.
The trans-crocetin of the results show present method preparation can effectively improve the oxidative stress status of fatty liver cell by its oxidation resistant effect.Also point out the trans-crocetin of present method preparation to change for fatty liver and have certain preventive and therapeutic effect.
According to " the two-hit theory " of fatty liver, in second strike, oxidative stress and lipid peroxide have been brought into play Main Function.Lipid peroxidation mainly refers to a kind of free chain reaction of occuring in polyunsaturated fatty acid, it is mainly caused by free radical and produces, and its feature is the generation lipid peroxide of chain type, the disorganize structure and function.Be accompanied by plastosome impaired, liver carries fatty function also significantly to descend, and these variations can be induced the gene alteration of coding lipid metabolism enzyme, thereby further cause liver injury so that fatty acid peroxidase and triglyceride level are piled up.Continue the superfluous accumulation of superfluous ROS and can make the interior antioxidant of body pursue exhaustion, thereby form the vicious cycle of free chain reaction.These Biochemical processes activate proinflammatory cytokine, cause liver cell be inflamed infiltrations, necrosis, even progress are hepatic fibrosis, liver cirrhosis.
Mda (MDA) is the product of lipid peroxidation, and it can reflect directly that free radical causes the degree of injury of lipid peroxidation.In the Models of Fatty Liver, the remarkable rising of ROS, MDA content has verified that also the high-caliber oxidative stress status in the fatty liver cell makes the interior redox equilibrium of hepatic tissue by havoc.And and the crocetin intervention of present method preparation can effectively reduce the oxidative stress level, thereby prevent the generation of " second strike ".
This experiment is by setting up the fatty liver cell model, study the trans-crocetin of present method preparation to the effect of fatty liver cell state at cell levels, for utilizing natural phant antioxidant component control fatty live lesions that theoretical foundation is provided, also provide experiment basis for clinical application research.
