Shisiwei Jianzhong decoction inhibits the adipogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells by downregulating nuclear factor of activated T cells, cytoplasmic 4 in non-severe aplastic anemia.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To investigate the effect of Shisiwei Jianzhong decoction (, SJD) on non-severe aplastic anemia (NSAA).

Methods

Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) were isolated from bone marrow samples of 15 NSAA patients and 3 healthy controls. Cells were treated with gradient concentrations of SJD, and a portion was transfected with a vector overexpressing the nuclear factor of activated T cells, cytoplasmic 4 (NFATC4). Cell viability and apoptosis were detected by cell counting kit-8 and flow cytometry, respectively. After adipogenic differentiation induction, lipid droplet formation in BMSCs was examined by Oil Red O staining. The expression of NFATC4, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARG), fatty acid-binding protein 4 (FABP4), peroxisome proliferato
