Regulation of oxygen –glucose deprivation/reperfusion-induced inflammatory responses and M1-M2 phenotype switch of BV2 microglia by lobetyolin

Abstract   To elucidate the protective mechanism of lobetyolin on oxygen –glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R)-induced damage in BV2 microglial cells. The OGD/R model was established using a chemical modeling method to simulate in vivo brain ischemia in lobetyolin-pretreated BV2 cells. The optimum lobetyolin dosage, chemical concentration, and OGD/R modeling duratio n were screened. The changes in cell morphology were observed, and the levels of immune response-related factors, including tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and cluster of differentiation (CD)206, were detected using the enzyme-linked immunoso rbent assay. The expression of chemokine-like-factor-1 (CKLF1), hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α, TNF-α, and CD206, was detected using western blotting. The gene expression of M1 and M2 BV2 phenotype markers was assessed using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). The localization of M1 and M2 BV2 markers was detected using immunofluorescence analysis. The results showed that lobetyolin could protect BV2 cells from OGD/R-induced damage. After OGD/R, CKLF1/C–C chemokine receptor type 4 (CCR4) levels increased in BV2 cells, whereas the CKLF1/CCR4 level was decreased due to lobetyol in pretreatment. Additionally, BV2 cells injured with OGD/R tended to be M1 type, but lobetyolin treatment shifted the phenotype of BV2 cells from M1 type to M2 type. Lobetyolin decreased the expression of TNF-α and HIF-1...
