Zusammenfassung:OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of oxidative stress on the survival and apoptosis of alveolar epithelial type II (ATII) cells, as well as the mechanisms of apoptosis
METHODS: 500 mumol/L H(2)O(2) was added into primary ATII cells at different times and cell viability, apoptotic ratio and the expression of Bax and p53 were measured by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, flow cytometry (FCM) and Western blotting analysis, respectively. The change in mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) was detected by fluorescence microscopy and FCM
RESULTS: The cell viability and MMP were decreased by H(2)O(2) compared with the controls (F(1)=85.211, F(2)=72.453, respectively, both P<0.05). The cell apoptotic ratios were increased with the time of the stimulation prolonged compared with the controls (F=54.002, P<0.05). H(2)O(2) increased Bax and p53 protein levels (F(1)=28.118, F(2)=43.456, both P<0.05)
CONCLUSION: High level of oxidative stress can inhibit ATII cells proliferation, and induce cells apoptosis and decrease the MMP. Up-regulation of the expression of Bax and p53 may contribute to its apoptosis effects
