Background/Aims: Protecting intestinal mucosa from nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs is still an unsolved problem. It has been revealed that apoptosis in epithelial cells as a result of mitochondrial injury is an important pathogenesis in indomethacin-induced gastric mucosal injury. In this study, we revealed the effect of overexpressed heat-shock protein 70 (HSP70) in indomethacin-induced apoptosis and oxidative stress. Methods: HSP70-overexpressing rat gastric mucosal cells (7018-RGM-1 cells) and control cells (pBK-CMV-12 cells) were used and treated with 0-500 mu M of indomethacin for 24 h. Cell viability and cytotoxity were measured by a WST-8 assay and a lactate dehydrogenase release assay, respectively. Apoptosis was observed by fluorescence microscopy staining with Hoechst 33342 and propidium iodide. The expression of Bcl-2 family proteins, activation of caspase-3, and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE)-modified proteins were assessed by Western blot analysis. Results: Indomethacin caused apoptosis of gastric epithelial cells. The 7018-RGM-1 cells survived significantly after indomethacin treatment compared to the control cells. The increase in proapoptotic Bad proteins, the decrease in anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 proteins, and caspase activation were all suppressed in the 7018-RGM-1 cells. A lower level of indomethacin-induced 4-HNE-modification was detected in the 7018-RGM-1 cells than in the control cells. Conclusion: Overexpressed HSP70 may potentiate resistance to apoptosis and oxidative stress in indomethacin-induced gastric epithelial cell injury. Copyright (C) 2009 S. Karger AG, Basel
