摘要:
目的探讨肿瘤坏死因子样弱凋亡诱导因子(TWEAK)及其受体成纤维细胞生长因子诱导早期反应蛋白14(Fn14)对肝星状细胞迁徙的影响及其机制。方法人源性肝星状细胞株LX-2分别予细胞因子TWEAK处理、特异性下调Fn14(Fn14 siRNA)后加入TWEAK处理,Transwell小室检测肝星状细胞迁徙;real-time PCR及Western Blot检测基质金属蛋白酶(MMP)9的表达量。计量资料两组间比较采用独立样本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 TWEAK处理组较正常LX-2细胞迁徙能力增强[(105±8)个vs(164±17)个,t=5.287,P<0.01];下调Fn14后加入TWEAK处理的LX-2细胞迁徙数目较阴性对照组减少[(122±9)个vs(58±7)个,t=9.836,P<0.01];TWEAK处理LX-2细胞后,MMP9的mRNA及蛋白水平增加(P值均<0.05),且存在时间依赖性;下调Fn14并加入TWEAK后LX-2细胞MMP9的mRNA及蛋白表达量减少,与单纯TWEAK处理的LX-2细胞组...

Abstract:Objective To investigate the effect of TNF-like weak inducer of apoptosis ( TWAEK) and its receptor fibroblast growth factor-inducible 14 ( Fn14) on the migration of hepatic stellate cells and the possible mechanism. Methods The human hepatic stellate cell line LX-2 cells were treated with TWEAK or Fn14 specific small interfering RNA ( Fn14 siRNA) + TWEAK. Transwell chamber was used to observe the migration of hepatic stellate cells, and real-time PCR and Western blot were used to measure the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 ( MMP9) . The independent samples t-test was used for comparison of 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 Compared with normal LX-2 cells, the TWEAK group had a significant increase in the migration of LX-2 cells ( 105 ± 8 vs 164 ± 17, t = 5. 287, P < 0. 01) , and compared with the negative control group, the Fn14 siRNA + TWEAK group had a significant reduction in the number of migrated cells ( 122 ± 9 vs 58 ± 7, t = 9. 836, P < 0. 01) . When LX-2 cells were treated with TWEAK, the mRNA and protein expression of MMP9 increased in a time-dependent manner ( both P < 0. 05) , while the Fn14 siRNA +TWEAK group had significant reductions in the mRNA and protein expression of MMP9 compared with the TWEAK group ( t = 5. 358, P <0. 01) . Conclusion TWEAK and its receptor Fn14 can promote the migration of hepatic stellate cells by upregulating MMP9, and blockade of this pathway may become a potential target for the treatment of liver fibrosis.
