Abstract

Dexmedetomidine (Dex) protects different cell types during hypoxia or ischemia-reperfusion injury by inhibiting cell apoptosis. However, the underlying mechanism and its impact on hepatic ischemia reperfusion injury are still not known. In this study, we established a model of oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R) injury in hepatocyte HL7702 cells, and studied the impact of Dex on cell proliferation, apoptosis, and cell cycle during OGD/R. In addition, we explored the role of CCAT1 in this process. We found that Dex increased cell proliferation and inhibited cell apoptosis during OGD/R, in a concentration-dependent manner. Dex partially reversed the OGD-inhibited expression of lncRNA CCAT1. Knockdown of CCAT1 by siRNA inhibited Dex-mediated protection against OGD/R-induced injury and promoted cell apoptosis, caspase-3 expression and cell cycle arrest in the G0/G1 phase, and inhibited cell proliferation and cyclin D1 expression. In contrast, overexpression of CCAT1 by pcDNA3.0-CCAT1 enhanced Dex-mediated protection against OGD/R-induced cell injury. Thus, Dex protects hepatocytes against OGD/R injury by upregulating lncRNA CCAT1. This study suggests a novel role of CCAT1 in ischemia reperfusion injury, and lays the fram...Continue Reading

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
