Abstract

Background

Salidroside (Sal) is a natural product commonly isolated from Rhodiola rosea L., which has been found to have numerous pharmacological activities (e.g., ameliorating apoptosis and inflammation, and acting as an antioxidant) in various diseases, but its concrete function in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) has not been revealed yet. Here, we aimed to explore the specific role and underlying mechanisms of Sal in RA-fibroblast-like synoviocytes (RA-FLSs).

Methods

Cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8) was used to assess the viability of normal-FLSs and RA-FLSs. Cell apoptosis in RA-FLSs was evaluated by flow cytometry. Western blotting was prepared to examine the levels of apoptosis- and signaling-related proteins. Wound-healing and Transwell assays were conducted to examine RA-FLSs migration and invasion. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to assess the effect of Sal on tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α)-induced inflammation in RA-FLSs. RA animal model was established through complete Freund’s adjuvant (CFA) induction, and the histopathological changes in synovial tissues of the rat model were analyzed by H&E staining.

Results

RA-FLSs were treated with 200 μM Sal for 24 h, and cell viability was significantly suppressed. Sal promoted RA-FLSs apoptosis. The migratory and invasive abilities of RA-FLSs were markedly inhibited by Sal. Sal incubation reduced the levels of inflammatory cytokines interleukin‑8 (IL-8), IL-1β, and IL‑6 in RA-FLSs under the stimulation of TNF‑α. Subsequently, Sal downregulated phosphorylated phosphatidylinositol‑3 kinase (p-PI3K) and protein kinase (p-AKT) expression in RA-FLSs. After the treatment with pathway activator 740Y‑P (20 μM) in RA-FLSs, the promotive effect of Sal on cell apoptosis was reversed, and inhibitory effects of it on cell viability, migration, invasion, and inflammatory response were abolished. Sal inhibited RA development in the CFA-induced rat model.

Conclusion

Sal suppressed cell growth and inflammation in RA-FLSs by inactivating PI3K/AKT-signaling pathways.
