摘要:
目的 观察奥沙利铂对肝星状细胞(HSC)活化的影响,进一步探讨奥沙利铂与microRNA-30a-5p及自噬的关系。 方法 培养HSC-LX2并做如下分组:(1)对照组、PDGF处理组、奥沙利铂处理组、奥沙利铂+PDGF处理组;(2)对照组、microRNA-30a-5p转染组,PDGF处理组、microRNA-30a-5p转染+PDGF处理组;(3)对照组、3-MA组、microRNA-30a-5p抑制剂组、microRNA-30a-5p抑制剂+3-MA组。应用免疫蛋白印迹技术(Western Blot)分析HSC活化相关蛋白Ⅰ型胶原(Collagen-Ⅰ)、抗α-平滑肌肌动蛋白(α-SMA)及HSC自噬相关蛋白Beclin 1、p62、LC3B的表达;溶酶体示踪剂和免疫荧光检测LC3B自噬小体的表达。实时荧光定量PCR(RT-PCR)检测microRNA-30a-5p表达水平。应用生物信息学技术预测microRNA-30a-5p在HSC中的潜在靶点。正态分布的计量资料两组间比较采用成组t检验;多组间比较采用单因素方差分析,进一步两两比较采用LSD-t检验。 结果 应用奥沙利铂处理细胞时,RT-PCR结果显示奥沙利铂处理组microRNA-30a-5p的表达水平高于对照组(P<0.01);Western Blot结果显示奥沙利铂处理组的HSC活化相关蛋白α-SMA、Collagen-Ⅰ及自噬相关蛋白Beclin 1、LC3BⅡ/Ⅰ水平均降低(P值均<0.001);免疫荧光结果显示奥沙利铂处理组自噬小体低于对照组(P<0.05)。进一步应用microRNA-30a-5p模拟类似物(mimic)转染HSC-LX2结果显示,与对照组相比,microRNA-30a-5p mimic组自噬相关蛋白Beclin 1和LC3BⅡ/Ⅰ的表达水平均降低(P值均<0.05);HSC活化相关蛋白Collagen-Ⅰ的表达水平亦降低(P<0.001);应用microRNA-30a-5p抑制剂转染HSC-LX2,Western Blot结果显示,与对照组比较,microRNA-30a-5p抑制剂组HSC活化相关蛋白Collagen-Ⅰ、α-SMA,自噬相关蛋白Beclin 1的表达水平均升高(t值分别为2.41、2.32、4.57,P值均<0.05)。Western Blot结果显示,与对照组相比,microRNA-30a-5p抑制剂组HSC自噬相关蛋白Beclin 1及活化相关蛋白α-SMA表达水平均升高(P值均<0.05),应用自噬抑制剂3-MA处理后,两组间上述蛋白表达无显著差异(P>0.05)。通过TargetScan、PicTar和miRanda生物信息软件分析表明,自噬相关蛋白Beclin 1是microRNA-30a-5p的潜在靶标。 结论 奥沙利铂可通过上调microRNA-30a-5p表达从而抑制HSC激活,为肝纤维化的治疗提供新的思路和作用靶点。 Abstract:Objective To investigate the effect of oxaliplatin on the activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), as well as the association of oxaliplatin with microRNA-30a-5p and autophagy. Methods HSC-LX2 cells were cultured and divided into groups according to the following three protocols: control group, PDGF treatment group, oxaliplatin treatment group, oxaliplatin+PDGF treatment group; control group, microRNA-30a-5p transfection group, PDGF treatment group, microRNA-30a-5p transfection+PDGF treatment group; control group, 3-MA group, microRNA-30a-5p inhibitor group, microRNA-30a-5p inhibitor+3-MA group. Western Blot was used to measure the expression of HSC activation-related proteins (Collagen-I and alpha-smooth muscle actin [α- SMA]) and HSC autophagy-related proteins (Beclin-1, P62, and LC3B); LysoTracker staining and immunofluorescence assay were used to measure the expression of LC3B autophagosomes; RT-PCR was used to measure the expression level of microRNA-30a-5p; bioinformatics techniques were used to predict the potential targets of microRNA-30a-5p in HSCs. The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between two groups; a one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between multiple groups, and the least significant difference t-test was used for further comparison between two groups. Results After the cells were treated with oxaliplatin, RT-PCR results showed that the oxaliplatin treatment group had a significantly higher expression level of microRNA-30a-5p than the control group (P<0.01); Western Blot showed that the oxaliplatin treatment group had significant reductions in the expression levels of the HSC activation-related proteins α-SMA and Collagen-Ⅰ and the autophagy-related proteins Beclin 1 and LC3BⅡ/Ⅰ (all P<0.001); immunofluorescence assay showed that the oxaliplatin treatment group had a significantly lower number of autophagosomes than the control group (P<0.05). After HSC-LX2 cells were transfected with microRNA-30a-5p mimic, compared with the control group, the microRNA-30a-5p mimic group had significant reductions in the expression levels of the autophagy-related proteins Beclin 1 and LC3BⅡ/Ⅰ (P<0.05) and the HSC activation-related protein Collagen-Ⅰ (P<0.001); after HSC-LX2 cells were transfected with microRNA-30a-5p inhibitor, Western Blot showed that compared with the control group, the microRNA-30a-5p inhibitor group had significant increases in the expression levels of the HSC activation-related proteins Collagen-Ⅰ and α-SMA and the autophagy-related protein Beclin 1 (t=2.41, 2.32, and 4.57, all P<0.05). Western Blot showed that compared with the control group, the microRNA-30a-5p inhibitor group had significant increases in the expression levels of the HSC autophagy-related protein Beclin 1 and the HSC activation-related protein α-SMA (both P<0.05), and after the treatment with the autophagy inhibitor 3-MA, there were no significant differences in the expression of these proteins between the two groups (P>0.05). The bioinformatics analysis using TargetScan, PicTar, and miRanda databases showed that the autophagy-related protein Beclin-1 might be a potential target of miRNA-30a-5p. Conclusion Oxaliplatin can inhibit the activation of HSCs by upregulating the expression of microRNA-30a-5p, which provides new ideas and a new target for the treatment of liver fibrosis. -
