Abstract: This experiment aimed to study the effect of vitamin E (VE) on H2O2-induced oxidative damage and tight junction-related gene expression in MAC-T cells.There were three groups in this study,control,H2O2 and H2O2+VE groups.MTT was used to detect cell survival rate,while colorimetric method was employed to detect the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT),the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cell culture medium.The expression levels of tight junction genes ZO-1,occludin and claudin-1 were detected by Real-time PCR.The results showed that compared with the control group,the survival rate of MAC-T cells in the H2O2 group decreased significantly (P<0.05),the content of ROS and MDA increased significantly (P<0.05),and the activity of SOD and CAT decreased significantly (P<0.05).Compared with the H2O2 group,the cell survival rate of the H2O2+20 μmol/L VE group increased significantly (P<0.05),the content of ROS and MDA decreased significantly (P<0.05),and the activity of SOD and CAT increased significantly (P<0.05).In addition,compared with the control group,the H2O2 group extremely significantly inhibited the relative expression of tight junction genes (P<0.01).Compared with the H2O2 group,the relative expression of tight junction genes was extremely significantly increased after the addition of vitamin E (P<0.01).This study demonstrated that vitamin E could lessen the oxidative damage induced by H2O2 in MAC-T cells,and significantly alleviate the down-regulate tight junction genes expression in MAC-T cells induced by H2O2.
