Effect of lycopene on hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced endoplasmic reticulum stress and apoptosis in neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes

Objective To evaluate whether the protective mechanism of lycopene is relative to inhibition of endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) induced apoptosis in primary cultured neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes with hypoxia/reoxgenation (H/R).Methods Primary neonatal C57BL/6 cardiomyocytes were used to establish H/R model and divided by a random number method into control group(group C),lycopene group (Lyc,preconditioned with 5 μmol/L lycopene for 4 h),H/R group (4 h hypoxia followed by 6 h reoxgenation),lycopene+H/R group (Lyc+H/R,preconditioned with 5 νmol/L lycopene for 4 h before H/R treatment).The cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay,A Leica inverted microscope was used to observe the cardiomyocytes' morphology and beating frequency.TUNEL assay was used to assess cardiomyocytes apoptosis.The generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was measured by dichlorofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA) method.The protein levels of Cleaved-caspase-12 and Cleaved-caspase-3 were assessed by Western blot.Real-time PCR (RT-PCR) was used to determine the mRNA expression of the glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78),C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) and cysteme aspartate specific protease-12 (caspase-12).Results Compared with group C,the cell viability[(100±5)％,(69±6)％] and beating frequency[(94±6),(28±5) beats/min] were markedly decreased in H/R group(P＜0.01).The apoptotic rate [(4.9±1.5)％,(25.6±2.6)％] and the production of ROS[(100±1 1)％,(226±10)％] in H/R group were significantly increased compared with group C(P＜0.01).The mRNA levels of CHOP [(1.00±0.10),(2.60±0.19)],GRP78[(1.00±0.18),(4.12±0.23)] and caspase-12[(1.00±0.09),(1.79±0.14)],the protein levels of cleaved-caspase-12[(1.00±0.08),(1.85±0.10)] and cleavedcaspase-3 [(1.00±0.07),(1.89±0.14)] in H/R group were markedly increased compared with group C (P＜0.05).Compared with H/R group,the cell viability[(69±6)％,(84±7)％] and the beating frequency[(28±5),(73±6) beats/min] in Lyc+H/R group were siguificantly increased(P＜0.05).The apoptotic rate of cardiomyocytes [(25.6±2.6)％,(18.2±2.2)％] and the generation of ROS[(226±10)％,(140± 16)％] in Lyc+H/R group were markedly decreased(P＜0.05) compared with H/R group.The mRNA levels of CHOP [(2.60±0.19),(1.71±0.14)],GRP78 [(4.12±0.23),(1.98±0.19)] and caspase-12 [(1.79±0.14),(1.38±0.11)] in Lyc+H/R group were significantly decreased compared with H/R group (P＜0.05).Compared with H/R group,the expression of Cleaved-caspase-12[(1.85±0.10),(1.26±0.12)] and cleaved-caspase-3[(1.89±0.14),(1.36±0.12)] in Lyc+H/R group significantly decreased(P＜0.05).Conclusions Lycopene may protect the primary neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes against hypoxia/reoxygenationinjury through inhibiting the ERS and the relative apoptotic pathway.
