The aim is to determine whether TSA enhances the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs damaged by dexamethasone (DEX) through the ERK1/2 –CREB signaling pathway. BMSCs were treated with varying concentrations of DEX (0.1–30 μM) and TSA (0.04–5 μM) for 18 or 36 h. Cell viability was assessed using the MTT assay. Osteogenic differentiation was evaluated through Alizarin Red S staining and quantified by qRT-PCR for osteogenic markers such as Runx2 and ALP. Apoptosis was measured by Annexin V-FITC/PI staining and TUNEL/DAPI co-staining. The ERK1/2-CREB signaling pathway was examined using Western blot and immunofluorescence. TSA at 5 μM significantly bolstered BMSCs viability and osteogenic differentiation, reversing the deleterious effects of 30 μM DEX. TSA pre-treatment decreased apoptosis and ROS levels, and importantly, it enhanced the ERK1/2-CREB signaling pathway, as evidenced by increased phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and CREB. The ERK1/2 inhibitor PD98059 and siCREB abrogated TSA's protective effects, highlighting the pathway's significance. These findings indicate that TSA, through the ERK1/2-CREB axis, provides a protective strategy against DEX-induced impairment in BMSCs. TSA's modulation of the ERK1/2 –CREB pathway reverses DEX-induced osteogenic inhibition and apoptosis in BMSCs, suggesting its therapeutic efficacy against glucocorticoid-induced bone disorders.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":143,"journal":{"name":"Chemical Biology & Drug Design","volume":"105 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143554824","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The targets of the FA were obtained from CTD, TargetNet, Super-PRED, TCMIO, and SwissTargetPrediction databases. GO analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis were performed, and a protein–protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed to screen for key pathways. For in vivo assays, a middle cerebral artery occlusion and reperfusion (MCAO/R) model was established in rats, and high and low doses of FA were administered. Neurological impairment score, cerebral infarction, cerebral edema, and tissue morphology were evaluated. The content of reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were detected. The expressions of cleaved caspase 3, Bax, and bcl-2, and Nrf2/HO-1 pathway-related proteins were detected by Western blot. For in vitro experiments, an oxygen–glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R) model was constructed in HT22 cells, and CCK-8 and LDH release assays were used to evaluate the effect of FA on OGD/R-induced toxicity of HT22 neurons. The Nrf2 inhibitor ML385 was used for the rescue experiments. Network pharmacology and bioinformatics analysis showed that the role of FA in treating IS was associated with oxidative stress. Topological analysis of the PPI network revealed 11 key genes, which were closely associated with the Nrf2 pathway. FA treatment could significantly reduce cerebral infarction, cerebral edema, neurological function impairment, and neuronal injury of the rats with MCAO/R. FA could also inhibit oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis, and increase the viability of HT22 cells. In addition, FA promoted the nuclear translocation of Nrf2 and activated the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway, while ML385 weakened the protective effect of FA on neuronal viability and antioxidant capacity.

The RT-qPCR method was adopted to analyze the changes of genes in related signaling pathways. As a result, 33 potential targets related to the effect of RES against CRS disease were obtained. According to the results of network pharmacology, it was shown that the effect of RES against CRS disease was closely related to the inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis. A variety of results from cell experiments verified that RES can effectively inhibit the inflammation, oxidative stress and apoptosis of LPS-induced HNEpCs.
