Abstract
Background: Smoking, alcohol abuse, and hypertension are - among others, potential risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. These risk factors generate oxidative stress and cause oxidative stress-induced DNA damage, resulting in cellular senescence and senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). The SASP factors in feed-forward response exacerbate inflammation and cause tissue remodeling, resulting in atherosclerotic plaque formation and rupture.
Results: Colchicine inhibited ROS generation and mitigated oxidative stress-induced DNA damage. It dampened oxidative stress-induced endothelial cell senescence and improved the expression of DNA repair protein KU80 and aging marker Lamin B1. The drug attenuated the expression of senescence marker P21 at mRNA and protein levels. The pathway analysis showed that colchicine inhibited NF-κB and MAPKs pathways and subdued mTOR activation. Colchicine also attenuated mRNA expression of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-8, MCP-1, ICAM-1, and E-selectin. Furthermore, colchicine reduced the mRNA and protein expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-2).
Conclusion: In summary, colchicine blocked oxidative stress-induced senescence and SASP by inhibiting the activation of NF-κB and MAPKs pathways.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Inflammation welcomes research submissions on all aspects of inflammation.
The five classical symptoms of inflammation, namely redness (rubor), swelling (tumour), heat (calor), pain (dolor) and loss of function (functio laesa), are only part of the story. The term inflammation is taken to include the full range of underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms involved, not only in the production of the inflammatory responses but, more importantly in clinical terms, in the healing process as well. Thus the journal covers molecular, cellular, animal and clinical studies, and related aspects of pharmacology, such as anti-inflammatory drug development, trials and therapeutic developments. It also considers publication of negative findings.
Journal of Inflammation aims to become the leading online journal on inflammation and, as online journals replace printed ones over the next decade, the main open access inflammation journal. Open access guarantees a larger audience, and thus impact, than any restricted access equivalent, and increasingly so, as the escalating costs of printed journals puts them outside University budgets. The unrestricted access to research findings in inflammation aids in promoting dynamic and productive dialogue between industrial and academic members of the inflammation research community, which plays such an important part in the development of future generations of anti-inflammatory therapies.
