Abstract

Backgrounds. Polysaccharides of Dendrobium candidum (PDC) showed a strong antioxidant effect on islet cells while the effects of PDC on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) under the high glucose condition remain unclear. Material and Method. HUVECs were incubated with high glucose (33.3 mmol/L) for 48 hours to induce injury, and cells were treated with PDC (100, 200, and 400 μg/mL) for 48 hours. The tetrazolium blue colorimetric (MTT) assay was used to detect cell proliferation, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and nitric oxide (NO) content in cell supernatants. Flow cytometry was used to detect reactive oxygen species (ROS) and calcium levels. Results. (1) Compared with the control group, the proliferation of HUVECs cells in the high glucose (33.3 mmol/L) group decreased (). The intracellular calcium ion concentration and the intracellular ROS level increased ( and ). SOD activity and the level of NO in the culture medium were reduced (P <0.05). (2) Compared with the control group, PDC (50, 100, 200, 400, and 800 μg/mL) did not significantly affect the cell proliferation of HUVECs (). (3) Compared with the high glucose group, the HUVEC cell viability of the high glucose + PDC (100, 200, and 400 μg/mL) group increased while the intracellular calcium ion concentration decreased in a concentration-dependent manner (). Intracellular ROS levels were reduced, while SOD activity and the level of NO in culture fluids increased (). Conclusion. PDC can promote the proliferation of HUVECs in the high glucose environment by reducing oxidative stress injury of HUVECs induced by high glucose.

1. Background

The major chronic complications of diabetes (diabetes mellitus, DM) involve the diseases of heart, eye, kidney, foot, and neuropathy, all related to vascular injury [1, 2]. Many researchers have focused on diabetic vascular disease but the pathogenesis of diabetic vascular disease has yet to be further clarified. Increased oxidative stress is one of the pathogenesis of diabetic microvascular complications. Its role in the chronic pathogenesis of diabetes is not only direct cytotoxic damage but also can act as an important intracellular messenger to activate signaling pathways, directly leading to tissue and cell damage [3, 4]. Previous studies have confirmed that increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production can lead to decreased endothelial cell survival, and the induction of endothelial cell damage is related to increased intracellular free calcium and activation of ROS [1, 5, 6]. Intracellular levels of reactive ROS and free calcium can contribute to dysfunction and progressive loss of beta cells and thereby to diabetes mellitus. Besides, as an antioxidant enzyme in mitochondria, superoxide dismutase (SOD) plays an important role in combating oxidative damage. The decrease of SOD activity is an important biochemical characteristic of diabetic patients. Decreased endothelium-dependent vasodilation in diabetes may be related to both the reduced nitric oxide (NO) synthesis and increased NO inactivation [7, 8]. Dendrobium polysaccharide, also called polysaccharides of Dendrobium candidum (PDC), is the main active ingredient in Dendrobium candidum [9]. Studies have shown that PDC has a strong antioxidant effect in vitro, which can inhibit islet cell apoptosis and necrosis, protect islet cells, resist calcium overload, and protect and repair cells [10–12].

Therefore, we speculated that PDC might regulate the oxidative stress of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) under high glucose environment, promote the proliferation of HUVECs, and thus exert its effect on protecting endothelial cells. This study was to explore the effects of PDC on HUVECs by detecting the SOD activity and NO content, as well as the ROS and calcium levels in high glucose conditions.

The whole medium was cultured for 24 hours, the culture medium was discarded, and the medium was only pretreated with 0.5% FBS for 24 hours to achieve cell synchronization. Add the control group, experimental group, and positive control medium. After continuing the normal culture for 12, 24, 36, 48, and 72 hours, 50 μL of MTT solution was added, and the cell proliferation was measured by the microplate reader using the MTT method at 490 nm and 690 nm (OD) of each well. Set 3 replicates in each group and repeat the experiment at least three times. Measurement of NO: set up a blank tube (no sample and sodium nitrite added), a standard tube (add 20 μmol/L sodium nitrite), and a determination tube (add 0.3 mL of the supernatant to be tested).

3. Results

3.1. Effect of PDC or High Glucose In Vitro on HUVEC Proliferation

As shown in Table 1, according to the results of MTT, compared with the control group, PDC at 50, 100, 200, 400, and 800 μg/mL did not significantly inhibit HUVECs (). Therefore, it can be judged that PDC has no obvious cytotoxic effect. Further, explore the effects of different glucose concentrations on the proliferation of HUVECs, as shown in Table 2: compared with the control group (OD value was ), the concentration of 25.5, 33.3, 40.0, and 56.0 mmol/L glucose significantly inhibited HUVEC cell proliferation with OD values of , , , and , respectively, which also showed a concentration dependence (). When the concentration reached 33.3 mmol/L, the inhibition rate of HUVEC cell proliferation was 51.65%, which was the optimal glucose concentration in the culture medium. However, the cell proliferation ability of the mannitol (56.0 mmol/L) group was not significantly different from that of the control group (), indicating that high glucose caused reduced HUVEC cell proliferation, and induced cell damage was not related to osmotic pressure. The results are shown in Table 3: compared with the high glucose group (OD value was ), the cell proliferation of the high glucose + PDC (100, 200, and 400 μg/mL) group significantly increased (OD values were , , and , respectively), showing a concentration dependence (). The results show that PDC has a protective effect on protecting HUVECs from high glucose.

4. Discussion

High glucose can aggravate the damage of IR and diabetic vascular endothelial cells [16]. It has been reported that the vascular endothelium-dependent vasodilation function decreases, blood flow velocity decreases, and the vasodilation function is negatively correlated with blood glucose concentration in normal subjects after glucose load, suggesting that high concentrations of glucose can induce the abnormality function of the vascular endothelial’s cell. High glucose can cause vascular endothelial cell insufficiency in a variety of ways. The vascular endothelium is an important target for high glucose damage, and oxidative stress injury is an important factor for vascular endothelial damage [17, 18].

Numerous experiments have confirmed that both chronic and intermittent high glucose can increase oxidative stress and promote endothelial cell apoptosis through excessive production of ROS in the mitochondrial electron transport chain level [16, 19, 20]. These observations suggest that antioxidants can play a beneficial role in preventing endothelial cell damage caused by ROS. In this study, to evaluate the effect of PDC on the free radicals produced by endothelial cells caused by high glucose, we measured the content of SOD in the culture medium by colorimetry and the intracellular ROS level by flow cytometry, which is the most commonly used method of free radical generating ability. PDC is one of the main active ingredients of Dendrobium candidum and has good anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and other biological activities [10, 21–23]. Different concentrations of PDC have been identified by Chen et al. to incresease the activity of SOD, which could contribute to inhibiting oxidative stress and apoptosis of human brain microvascular endothelial cells [24]. The results of this experimental study found that the intracellular ROS level increased significantly, and the activity of SOD in the culture medium decreased under high glucose culture, confirming once again the role of high glucose in oxidative damage and influencing endothelial cell proliferation during incubation with endothelial cells. The dose-dependent addition inhibited the production of ROS caused by high glucose, increased the activity of SOD, and significantly promoted endothelial cell proliferation. Therefore, it can be proved that PDC has a good active oxygen scavenging effect. This is consistent with the results of previous studies [25–27]. NO is a vasoactive substance synthesized by L-arginine as a substrate under the action of endothelial nitric oxide synthase in vascular endothelial cells. A reduction in NO can lead to an accelerated atherosclerotic process. A number of HUVECs in vitro culture experiments have confirmed that the level of NO decreases with the senescence of endothelial cells. In this experiment, we also observed that the NO level of HUVECs induced by high glucose decreased, which is consistent with the results of Hayashi et al. [28], and the experiment proved that PDC could significantly increase NO levels.

This study confirms that under the high glucose environment of 33.3 mmol/L, the proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells is suppressed, and the intracellular calcium concentration and the production of ROS increase, while the activity of SOD and NO production was reduced, but PDC can effectively antagonize the above changes in a dose-dependent manner. PDC can effectively antagonize the damage of HUVECs by high glucose culture, increase the activity of superoxide dismutase, and promote NO release. It is suggested that PDC may be a potential therapy pathway that is very important for protecting vascular endothelial cells. Its protective mechanism may be related to the antioxidant effect of PDC, which provides new ideas for the prevention and treatment of diabetes and vascular complications.
