ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of valdecoxib on the retina in retinal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) and R28 cells following oxygen-glucose deprivation/recovery (OGD/R) injury, as well as the underlying mechanisms. Immunofluorescence and Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) analyses were used to identify the proper timepoint and concentration of valdecoxib's protective effect on the R28 cells in the OGD/R model. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and immunofluorescence were used to explore valdecoxib's effect on the retina and retina ganglion cell (RGC) in IRI. Cell apoptosis was determined by a TUNEL Apoptosis Detection Kit and Annexin V-FITC/PI flow cytometry. The expression levels of p-PERK, transcription factor 4 (ATF4), GRP78, CHOP, cleaved caspase 3, bax and bcl-2 were measured by Western blot analyses. The valdecoxib protected the R28 cells from OGD/R injury by decreasing the cell apoptosis rate, and it exerted a protective effect on retinas in I/R injury by inhibiting RGC apoptosis. The valdecoxib pretreatment reversed the expression of p-PERK, ATF4, CHOP, GRP78, cleaved caspase 3 and bax induced by the glaucomatous model. Meanwhile, the CCT020312 reversed the valdecoxib's anti-apoptosis effect by activating PERK-ATF4-CHOP pathway-mediated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. These findings suggest that valdecoxib protects against glaucomatous injury by inhibiting ER stress-induced apoptosis via the inhibition of the PERK-ATF4-CHOP pathway.
