[Abstract]
Objective To observe the regulatory mechanism of drug- containing serum of Jinghou Zengzhi Prescription based on qi and blood replenishing method on the expression of growth and differentiation factor 9 (GDF9)and apoptosis of ovarian granulosa cells in rats with controlled ovarian hyperstimulation(COH). Methods Serum of COH rats(blank serum)and serum of COH rats gavaged by the Jinghou Zengzhi Prescription were prepared. A COH rat model was established and ovarian granulosa cells were collected. The experiment was divided into5groups:blankserumgroup,drug-containingserumgroup,drug-containingserum+SB203580[p38mitogenactivated protein kinase(p38MAPK) inhibitor] group, drug- containing serum + PDTC [nuclear transcription factor κB(NF-κB)inhibitor] group,drug-containing serum + SB203580 + PDTC group. The mRNA expression levels of p38MAPK,casein kinase 2(CK2),nuclear transcription factor κB inhibitor α(IκBα),NF-κB and GDF9 were detected by real- time quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qRT- PCR), and GDF9 protein expression level was detected by Western Blot, and ovarian granulosa cell apoptosis was detected by terminaldeoxynucleoitidyl transferase mediated nick end labeling (TUNEL). Results The drug- containing serum of Jinghou Zengzhi Prescription decreased the mRNA expressions of p38MAPK and NF-κB, elevated the mRNA expressions of CK2 and IκBα,increased the mRNA and protein expression levels of GDF9,and decreased the apoptosis rate of ovarian granulosa cells in COH rats. The addition of p38MAPK inhibitor SB203580 alone and the addition of NF-κB inhibitor PDTC alone both promoted the mRNA and protein expressions of GDF9 and reduced the apoptosis rate of granulosa cells. Conclusion The drug-containing serum of Jinghou Zengzhi Prescription based on qi and blood replenishing method can promote the expression of GDF9 and inhibit the apoptosis of ovarian granulosa cells in rats with COH,and its mechanism may be related to the regulation of the expression of genes of the dual signaling pathways of p38MAPK and NF-κB.
