摘要
This study aimed to explore the effects of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1 (TIMP-1) on levocarnitine (LC)-mediated regulation of angiotensin II (AngII)-induced myocardial fibrosis (MF) and its underlying mechanisms. H9C2 cells were treated with AngII for 24 h to induce fibrosis. The cells were then treated with LC or transfected with TIMP-1-OE plasmid/si-TIMP-1. Cell apoptosis, viability, migration, and related gene expression were analyzed. AngII treatment significantly upregulated Axl, alpha-SMA, and MMP3 expression (P < 0.05) and downregulated STAT4 and TIMP1 expression (P < 0.05) relative to the control levels. After transfection, cells with TIMP-1 overexpression/knockdown were successfully established. Compared with that of the control, AngII significantly inhibited cell viability and cell migration while promoting cell apoptosis (P < 0.05). LC and TIMP-1-OE transfection further suppressed cell viability and migration induced by Ang II and upregulated apoptosis, whereas si-TIMP-1 had the opposite effect. Furthermore, LC and TIMP-1-OE transfection downregulated Axl, AT1R, alpha-SMA, collagen III, Bcl-2, and MMP3 expression caused by AngII and upregulated caspase 3, p53, and STAT4 expression, whereas si-TIMP-1 had the opposite effect. TIMP-1 is therefore a potential therapeutic target for delaying MF progression.
