Protective activity of sappanchalcone against oxygen glucose deprivation/re-oxygenation-induced renal tubular epithelial cell injury via TNFRSF1A/NF-kB pathway

Abstract

Oxygen glucose deprivation/re-oxygenation (OGD/R)-mediated ischemia of kidney is frequently leads to enhanced apoptosis and amplified inflammatory response. Sappanchalcone (Sap) is a flavonoid compound that extracted from Caesalpinia sappan L. with a range of cell-protective activities. Herein, we primarily reconnoitered the influence of Sap in HK-2 cells under OGD/R treatment. In this research, the consequence revealed that Sap might linked with ischemia of kidney. Besides, Sap lessened OGD/R-mediated HK-2 cell injury by boosting cell viability, inhibiting apoptosis and inflammation. In addition, Sap hindered activation of the TNFRSF1A/NF-kB signaling. Moreover, upregulation of TNFRSF1A diminished the repressive influence of Sap on OGD/R-mediated apoptosis and inflammation. In conclusion, Sap declined the OGD/R-induced HK-2 cell injury by downregulation of TNFRSF1A/NF-kB signaling, thereby offered a theoretical basis for the handling of ischemia of kidney.

“…When there is inflammation in the body, the prognosis of cancer patients is bad (Deng et al, 2016). Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is a key mediator of tumor-associated inflammation and one of the most critical molecules for activating the NF-κB signaling pathway, which inhibits cancer cell death (Wang et al, 2016;Wang et al, 2022).…”
