摘要
目的:观察microRNA-486-5p(miR-486-5p)在氧化应激引起人骨髓间充质干细胞(h MSCs)凋亡中的作用并探讨其作用机制。方法:h MSCs经培养鉴定后分为5组:空白对照组、H2O2组、miR-486-5p模拟物+H2O2组、抑制物(αnti-miR)+H2O2组及相应的阴性对照(scrambled control)+H2O2组。荧光定量PCR(real-time PCR)检测氧化应激诱导h MSCs凋亡过程中miR-486-5p的表达变化。用脂质体分别转染miR-486-5p的模拟物、抑制物及阴性对照到h MSCs。应用MTT、Hoechst标记和流式细胞术的方法检测miR-486-5p对氧化应激介导细胞活性下降及凋亡效应的影响,Western blotting检测凋亡相关蛋白、Akt与其磷酸化水平,采用试剂盒测定caspase-3活性。结果:H2O2诱导h MSCs凋亡过程中miR-486-5p的表达较对照组显著下降(P<0.05)。与阴性对照组相比,在h MSCs中过表达miR-486-5p,能使细胞在氧化应激情况下活性显著下降,凋亡发生率增高,蛋白Bcl-2/Bax比值、caspase-3酶原含量及Akt磷酸化水平降低,caspase-3活性增强;而使用抑制物阻遏miR-486-5p的作用后,细胞在氧化应激条件下活性增加,凋亡发生率降低,蛋白Bcl-2/Bax比值及Akt磷酸化水平升高,caspase-3活性下降。结论:过表达miR-486-5p促进氧化应激引起的h MSCs凋亡,阻遏miR-486-5p的作用抑制氧化应激条件下的h MSCs凋亡,其中作用机制可能与调控Akt通路有关。
AIM：To investigate the role of microRNA-486-5p （miR-486-5p） in the apoptosis of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells （hMSCs） induced by hydrogen peroxide （H2O2）.METHODS： The hMSCs were cul-tured in vitro and exposed to serum-free medium and H2O2（10 mmol/L）.The changes of miR-486-5p expression in oxida-tive stress-related apoptosis of hMSCs were measured by real-time PCR.The hMSCs were transfected with miR-486-5p mimic or inhibitor at concentration of 30 nmol/L by Lipofectamine RNAiMAX.The effect of miR-486-5p on H2 O2-induced decrease in cell viability was evaluated by MTT assay.Hoechst 33342 staining and flow cytometry were applied to determine the role of miR-486-5p in the apoptosis of hMSCs.The protein expression was evaluated by Western blotting.Caspase-3 ac-tivity was determined using a caspase-3 activity kit.RESULTS：Compared with control group, the expression of miR-486-5p significantly decreased after treated with H2O2（P〈0.05）.In addition, over-expression of miR-486-5p in the hMSCs reduced the cell viability, accelerated apoptosis, down-regulated Bcl-2/Bax ratio, caspase-3 enzyme precursor content and phosphorylation of Akt, and activated caspase-3 activity.Conversely, down-regulation of miR-486-5p significantly inhibited＆amp;nbsp;H2 O2-induced cell apoptosis and the caspase-3 activity, increased cell viability and up-regulated Bcl-2/Bax ratio and phos-phorylation level of Akt.CONCLUSION：Over-expression of miR-486-5p promotes H2 O2-induced hMSCs apoptosis, and repression of miR-486-5p protects hMSCs from H2 O2-induced cellular apoptosis, which may be mediated by regulating Akt signaling pathway.
