Ulinastatin down regulates MiR-21 expression in murine macrophages induced by LPS and its preliminary mechanism
Objective:To detect the expression of micro RNA-21 in lipopolysaccharide(LPS) induced injured models of mouse RAW264.7 macrophages and the influence of Ulinastatin(UTI)on the expression of mi R-21. Methods:The growth status of RAW264.7cells was observed in the normal group
the model group(LPS)
the experimental group(LPS + UTI) and the negative control group(drug-non-stimulation group). Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT)assay was used to determine the effect of different concentration of UTI on the activity of RAW264.7 cells. After pre-treatment with different concentrations of UTI for 2 h
the expressions of TNF-αm RNA
IL-6 m RNA and mi R-21 were detected by RT-PCR in RAW264.7 cells induced by LPS. Results:(1)The toxic effects of UTI on RAW264.7 cell:it was non-toxic of UTI on RAW264.7 cells while the concentrations were less than 1 000 U/m L;there was no statistically significant difference(P=0.117).(2)After RAW264.7cells being treated by LPS with different concentrations(100

the expressions of mi R-21(1.000 ±0.000

indicated that it is related to the degree of inflammation. UTI could down-regulate the mi R-21-related signaling pathway to play a protective role in immune and inflammatory response.
