Hesperetin attenuates LPS‐induced the inflammatory response and apoptosis of H9c2 by activating the AMPK/P53 signaling pathway

Abstract Introduction Hesperetin (HES), whose main pharmacological effects are anti‑inflammatory and cardioprotective properties. In our study, we investigated the role of HES in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)‐induced inflammation and apoptosis in H9c2 cells. Methods Cell viability was assessed through MT...

description Abstract Introduction Hesperetin (HES), whose main pharmacological effects are anti‑inflammatory and cardioprotective properties. In our study, we investigated the role of HES in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)‐induced inflammation and apoptosis in H9c2 cells. Methods Cell viability was assessed through MTT assay. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‐α and interleukin (IL)‐β expression were quantified through RT‐qPCR assay. Secondly, the apoptosis rate was assessed by Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase‐mediated dUTP nick end labeling assay. Finally, B‐cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl‐2)‐ associated X protein (Bax), adenosine monophosphate‐activated protein kinase (AMPK), and P53 expression were quantified through western blot assay. Results Our results demonstrated that LPS stimulation decreased the cell viability, increased IL‐1β and TNF‐α expression in H9c2 cells. However, HES treatment significantly increased the cell viability, decreased IL‐1β and TNF‐α expression in LPS‐induced H9c2 cells. In addition, HES significantly increased the phosphorylation level of AMPK. Meanwhile, HES prevented against LPS‐mediated the P53 and Bax protein upregulation, and Bcl‐2 protein downregulation in H9c2 cells. More interestingly, compound C (an AMPK inhibitor) treatment eliminated the protective effects of HES. Conclusion Our findings revealed that HES attenuated the LPS‐mediated inflammation and apoptosis of H9c2 cells by activating the AMPK/P53 signaling pathway, suggesting that HES may be a potential cardioprotective agent.
