RESUMO
The aim of this study was to investigated the effects of forsythiaside A (FA) on acute lung injury (ALI). The lung tissue pathological was detected by hematoxylin-eosin staining (HE) staining. Wet weight/dry weight (w/d) of the lung in mice was measured. Cytokine such as interleukin 1ß (IL-1ß), IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were also detected. Compared with the vector group, the protein expression levels of TRAF6 and TAK1 the RNF99 group were significantly reduced. Ubiquitinated TRAF6 protein was increased after knockdown of RNF99. Finally, it was found that FA significantly ameliorated ALI via regulation of RNF99/TRAF6/NF-κB signal pathway. In conclusion, RNF99 was an important biomarker in ALI and FA alleviated ALI via RNF99/ TRAF6/NF-κB signal pathway.
