Intervertebral disk degeneration (IDD) is one of the major reasons that contributed to LBP. The levels of interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β) increase significantly in degenerative disks. IL-1β also accelerates IDD. Sinapic acid (SA) has the effect of anti‐inflammatory, antioxidant and antimicrobial. However, the effect of SA on IDD has never been studied. Therefore, the aim of this study was to figure out whether SA has protective effect on nucleus pulposus (NP) cells and further explore the possible underlying mechanism.Methods: The nucleus pulposus (NP) tissues of rats were collected and cultured into NP cells. The NP cells were stimulated by IL-1β and treated with SA. In vitro treatment effects were evaluated by ELISA, Western blot assay, immunofluorescence, TUNEL method and real-time PCR. We conducted percutaneous needle puncture in the rat tail to build intervertebral disk degeneration model and treated rats with SA. In vivo treatment effects were evaluated by hematoxylin and eosin (HE) and safranin O (SO) staining and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) method.Results: Our results showed that SA not only inhibited apoptosis but also suppressed inflammatory mediators including nitric oxide (NO), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) interleukin 6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) in IL-1β-stimulated NP cells. As to extracellular matrix (ECM), SA could increase collagen II and aggrecan levels and reduce the expression of MMP13 and ADAMTS5 during the stimulation of IL-1β. Furthermore, SA could activate nuclear factor‐erythroid 2‐related factor‐2 (Nrf2) to inhibit nuclear factor κB (NF‐κB) induced by IL‐1β. Nrf2 knockdown partly reduced the protective effect of SA on NP cells. Correspondingly, SA ameliorated IDD by promoting Nrf2 expression. In vivo results also showed that SA could delay the progression of IDD.Conclusion: In conclusion, we demonstrated that SA could protect the degeneration of NP cells and revealed the underlying mechanism of SA on Nrf2 activation in NP cells.Keywords: intervertebral disk degeneration, sinapic acid, apoptosis, Nrf2, inflammation |
