Abstract

During the process of liver fibrosis, hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) play a critical role in the excessive production of extracellular matrix (ECM). Previous studies have indicated that the monomer IH764-3, one of the major bioactive components of Salvia miltiorrhiza, is able to inhibit HSC proliferation and induce the apoptosis of activated HSCs in vitro. In the current study, we used a rat model of liver fibrosis induced by bile duct ligation (BDL) to investigate the effect of the monomer IH764-3 on the induction of apoptosis in HSCs in vivo. The rat model of liver fibrosis was established by BDL. Immunohistochemical staining of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) was performed to detect HSC activation and proliferation and HSC apoptosis was detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) and α-SMA immunohistochemical double staining. In addition, the protein expression levels of focal adhesion kinase (FAK), p-FAK (Tyr397), extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and p-ERK and the mRNA expression levels of FAK and ERK were measured by western blotting and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), respectively. The monomer IH764-3 was associated with a significant decrease in intrahepatic fibrogenesis and collagen deposition and attenuated the liver fibrosis induced by BDL. Immunohistochemical staining revealed that the expression of α-SMA in the IH764-3 group was significantly decreased compared with that in the model group (12.92±2.45 vs. 22.65±2.16%, P<0.01). TUNEL and α-SMA immunohistochemical double staining also confirmed that IH764-3 increased the apoptotic rate of the activated HSCs (34.8±4.5 vs. 4.72±0.37%, P<0.01). Moreover, the results revealed that IH764-3 downregulated the expression levels of FAK, p-FAK (Tyr397), ERK and p-ERK in the liver tissue of rats with liver fibrosis. The monomer IH764-3 ameliorates experimental liver fibrosis by inhibiting HSC proliferation and inducing HSC apoptosis, warranting its use as a potential therapeutic agent in the treatment of liver fibrosis.
