Potential cyclooxygenase-2-independent mechanisms of the anti-proliferation and anti-fibrotic effects of celecoxib on the human intrahepatic biliary epithelial cell line HIBEpiC assessed by bulk-RNA sequencing
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: This experiment utilized next-generation sequencing (NGS) to identify potential cyclooxygenase-2-independent mechanisms of the anti-proliferation and anti-fibrotic effects of celecoxib on the human intrahepatic biliary epithelial cell line HIBEpiC. HIBEpiC cells were cultured in vitro. Treatments were vehicle, 20 ng/mL of TGF-β (T20), combination of 10μM of celecoxib plus 20 ng/mL of TGF-β (C10+T20), or combination of 10μM of 2,5-dimethyl-celecoxib plus 20 ng/mL of TGF-β (DC10+T20) before NGS. The gene expression were analyzed. Overall, the results suggested that celecoxib had a COX-2-independent inhibitory effect on the proliferation and profibrotic behavior of TGF-β-stimulated CXCL12+ HIBEpiC cells, probably because of the regulation of the cell cycle and several other signaling pathways.
