Effect of Wenfei Huaxian Granule (温肺化纤颗粒) on Lung Injury in Mice with Pulmonary Fibrosis based on Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Signaling Pathway
(温肺化纤颗粒, WHG) in treating pulmonary fibrosis (PF).
Methods
2
Fifty Kunming mice were randomly divided into blank control group, model group, WHG low, medium and high dose groups, with 10 mice in each group. Except for the blank control group, bleomycin were instilled into the trachea of the mice to develop PF models. After modelling, the suspension of WHG at the dose of 2.925 g/(kg·d), 5.85 g/(kg·d) and 11.7 g/(kg·d) were given by gavage to the mice in WHG low, medium and high dose groups, respectively, while the blank control group and the model group were given 0.1mL/10g of normal saline by gavage; the administration in all the groups lasted for 28 days. HE and Masson staining were used to detect the pathological changes of lung in mice 24h after the last administration; real-time PCR was used to detect the Klotho, transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1), α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), glucose regulatory protein 78 (GRP78) and C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) mRNA expression; the expressions of Klotho, GRP78, CHOP, B lymphoma 2 related X (Bax) and B lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) protein were detected by Western blotting; TGF-β1 and α-SMA protein expression in the lung tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry.
Results
2
Compared to those in the blank group, the alveolar septum in the model group was thickened; the alveolar structure in the lesion area was damaged, and obvious deposition of blue collagen fibers was observed. The expression of TGF-β1, α-SMA, GRP78 and CHOP mRNA increased significantly (
P
<0.01), while Klotho mRNA decreased significantly (
P
<0.01); the expression of TGF-β1, α-SMA, GRP78, CHOP and Bax protein increased significantly (
P
<0.01), while the expression of Klotho and Bcl-2 protein decreased significantly (
P
<0.01). Compared to those in the model group, the lung injury, alveolar septum thickening, alveolar structure damage and deposition of blue collagen fibers in the lung of mice in WHG low, medium and high dose groups were improved; the expression of TGF-β1, α-SMA, GRP78 and CHOP mRNA decreased significantly (
P
<0.01), while Klotho mRNA expression increased significantly (
P
<0.01); the expression of GRP78, CHOP and Bax proteins in the WHG medium and high dose groups decreased significantly (
P
<0.01) , and the expression of Klotho and Bcl-2 proteins in all the dose groups of WHG increased significantly (
P
<0.01). When compared between different doses of WHG, the medium dose group had the least blue collagen fiber deposition, the lowest expression of α-SMA, GRP78, and CHOP mRNA, the highest expression of Klotho mRNA,the lowest expression of Bax, GRP78 and CHOP proteins, and the highest expression of Bcl-2 protein (
P
<0.05 or
P
<0.01).
Conclusion
2
WHG can inhibit the PF, and its mechanism maybe related to the inhibition of endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced apoptosis, thereby reducing epithelial-mesenchymal transition.
