Aim To explore the effects and mechanism of Retinoid X receptor （RXR） agonists 9-cis-RA and SR11237 on high-glucose-induced oxidative stress in human endothelial cells and to determine whether Rac-1 is involved in the effect of RXR agonists on oxidative stress. Methods Using human umbilical vein endothelial cells （ HUVEC ） , we evaluated the effect of high glucose levels on reactive oxygen species （ ROS ） production by dihydrodichlorofluorescein and flowcytometry. Rac-1 activity was assessed by both immunoprecipitation of the Rac-p21-activated kinase complex and analysis of Rac-1 translocation to the membrane. Nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate （NADPH） oxidase activity in endothelial cells was detected by lucigenin assay. Results ROS production and NADPH activity were increased by high glucose. Treatment of endothelial cells with RXR agonists and Rac-1 inhibitor resulted in significant inhibition of high-glucose-induced ROS production and NADPH activation. Meanwhile, Rac-1 activity and Rac-1 translocation to membrane elevated by high glucose were inhibited by RXR agonists. Conclusion RXR ligands rapidly inhibit high-glucose-induced oxidative stress by antagonizing high-glucose-induced Rac-1 activation.
