OBJECTIVE The main pathological changes of hemorrhagic cystitis (HC) are bladder inflammation, bladder epithelial damage and mast cell infiltration. Tropisetron has been corroborate to conduct a protective role in HC, but its specific etiology remains unclear. The objective of this research was to estimate the mechanism of action of Tropisetron in haemorrhagic cystitis tissue. METHODS Cyclophosphamide (CTX) was utilized to induce the construction of HC rat model, and rats were handled with different doses of Tropisetron. The impact of Tropisetron on the expression of inflammatory factors and oxidative stress factors in the rats with cystitis were measured by western blot, as well as the related proteins of toll-like receptor 4/nuclear transcription factor-κB (TLR-4/NF-κB) and januskinase 1/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (JAK1/STAT3) pathways. RESULTS CTX-induced cystitis in rats was accompanied by notable pathological tissue damage and increased bladder wet weight ratio, elevated mast cell numbers and collagen fibrosis compared to controls. Tropisetron ameliorated CTX-induced injury in a concentration-dependent manner. Futhermore, CTX induced oxidative stress and inflammatory damage, while Tropisetron can alleviate these injuries. Besides, Tropisetron ameliorated CTX-induced cystitis by restraining TLR-4/NF-κB and JAK1/STAT3 signalling pathways. CONCLUSIONS Taken together, Tropisetron ameliorates cyclophosphamide-induced haemorrhagic cystitis via modulating TLR-4/NF-κB and JAK1/STAT3 signalling pathways. These findings carry important implication for the study of the molecular mechanisms of pharmacological treatment of hemorrhagic cystitis.

D015398 Signal Transduction The intracellular transfer of information (biological activation/inhibition) through a signal pathway. In each signal transduction system, an activation/inhibition signal from a biologically active molecule (hormone, neurotransmitter) is mediated via the coupling of a receptor/enzyme to a second messenger system or to an ion channel. Signal transduction plays an important role in activating cellular functions, cell differentiation, and cell proliferation. Examples of signal transduction systems are the GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID-postsynaptic receptor-calcium ion channel system, the receptor-mediated T-cell activation pathway, and the receptor-mediated activation of phospholipases. Those coupled to membrane depolarization or intracellular release of calcium include the receptor-mediated activation of cytotoxic functions in granulocytes and the synaptic potentiation of protein kinase activation. Some signal transduction pathways may be part of larger signal transduction pathways; for example, protein kinase activation is part of the platelet activation signal pathway.
