The present study aimed to investigate the effects of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation on oxidative damage, apoptosis, and glutamine (Gln) transporter Alanine-Serine-Cysteine transporter 2 (ASCT2) expression in porcine small intestinal epithelial cells (IPEC-J2), and preliminarily elucidated the relationship between ASCT2 expression level and oxidative damage and apoptosis of IPEC-J2 cells. IPEC-J2 cells were treated without (control group, CON, N = 6) or with 1 μg/mL LPS (LPS group, LPS, N = 6). Cell viability, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) content, malonaldehyde (MDA), anti-oxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase [SOD], catalase [CAT], glutathione peroxidase [GSH-Px], and total anti-oxidant capacity [T-AOC]), apoptosis of IPEC-J2 cells, the expression of Caspase3, the expression of ASCT2 mRNA and ASCT2 protein was detected. The results showed that LPS stimulation of IPEC-J2 cells significantly reduced the cell viability, and anti-oxidant enzymes activity (SOD, CAT, and GSH-Px), and significantly increased LDH and MDA release. Flow cytometry results showed that LPS stimulation significantly increased the late apoptosis rate and the total apoptosis rate of IPEC-J2 cells. The immunofluorescence results showed that the fluorescence intensity of LPS stimulated IPEC-J2 cells was significantly enhanced. LPS stimulation significantly decreased the mRNA and protein expression of ASCT2 in IPEC-J2 cells. The correlation analysis showed that ASCT2 expression was negatively correlated with apoptosis, and positively correlated with the anti-oxidant capacity of IPEC-J2 cells. According to the results of this study, it can be preliminarily concluded that LPS promotes the apoptosis and oxidative injury of IPEC-J2 cells by down-regulating the expression of ASCT2.
