ABSTRACT
Dasatinib is effective in the treatment of chronic and acute myeloid leukemia, which could cause the side effect of gastrointestinal bleeding by overdose or longtime use. Ruscogenin (RUS) from the traditional Chinese medicine Ophiopogon japonicas could protect endothelial microvascular barrier function. In this study, the therapeutic effect and underlying mechanisms of RUS were investigated on intestinal barrier dysfunction induced by dasatinib. Male C57BL/6 J mice were given three doses of dasatinib (70, 140, 210 mg/kg, ig) and RUS (3, 10, 30 µg/kg, ip) to explore the effect of dasatinib on intestinal barrier and the intervention of RUS. It was proved that dasatinib could reduce intestinal blood flow, inhibit phosphorylation of EGFR family member v-erb-b2 avian erythroblastic leukemia viral oncogene homolog 4 (ErbB4)/YES-associated protein (YAP) and activation of Rho-associated coiled coil-containing protein kinase (ROCK)/phosphorylation of (myosin light chain) MLC. RUS could significantly increase intestinal blood flow, improve intestinal injury, reduce Evans blue leakage and serum content of FITC-dextran 4 kDa, and increase the expression of connexin (ZO-1, Occludin and VE-cadherin). Meanwhile, the in vitro effect of RUS (0.01, 0.1, 1 µM) on the dysfunction of the endothelial barrier was observed in dasatinib (150 nM)-pretreated HUVECs. The results showed that RUS suppressed dasatinib-induced the leakage of Evans blue, and degradation of F-actin and connexin. Furthermore, RUS could significantly increase the phosphorylation of ErbB4 at Tyr1284 site and YAP at Ser397 site, and inhibit ROCK expression and phosphorylation of MLC at Ser19 site in vivo and in vitro. In conclusion, the present research proved that RUS could suppress the side effects of dasatinib-induced intestinal barrier dysfunction by regulating ErbB4/YAP and ROCK/MLC pathways.
