Popis: AIM: To investigate the protective effect of Modified Taohong Siwu Decoction(MTSD)on hypoxia injury to retinal Müller cells rMC-1.METHODS: Retinal Müller cells rMC-1 were interfered with the MTSD drug-containing serum under hypoxia condition, and were randomly divided into control group(21%O2), hypoxia model group(1%O2), MTSD drug-containing serum low-dose(1%O2+5% medicated serum), medium-dose(1%O2+10% medicated serum)and high-dose(1%O2+15%medicated serum)groups. Cell viability was detected by CCK-8 method, and secretion of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)and pigment epithelium derived factor(PEDF)was detected by ELISA. The protein expressions of p-STAT3, STAT3 and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α)were detected by Western blot, and the gene expressions of VEGF, PEDF, STAT3 and HIF-1α were detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction(PCR).RESULTS: The viability of rMC-1 cells was significantly inhibited when cultured at 1%O2 for 48h compared with that of control group(P0.05). The low and medium doses of MTSD could reduce the protein expressions of VEGF in supernatant of rMC-1 cells under hypoxia condition(P0.05). The above two dose groups down-regulated the protein levels of both p-STAT3 and HIF-1α(P
