Objective:To investigate the effect of autophagy on the hypoxia-induced apoptosis in human renal proximal tubular cells (HK-2). Methods:Human proximal tubular epithelial cells cultured in vitro were divided into the control group(21%O2) and hypoxia group(1%O2), based on the oxygen concentration. HK-2 cells cultured in hypoxia condition were then divided into 6 h hypoxia sub- group, 12 h hypoxia subgroup, 18 h hypoxia subgroup and 24 h hypoxia subgroup. The expression of autophagy-related proteins, Beclinl, LC3 I1/LC3 I ,P62 and apoptosis-related protein,activated cleaved-caspase 3 were detected by Western blot analysis,and the apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry assay. HK-2 cells stably expressing GFP-LC3 were induced by hypoxia for 18 hours, and the alteration of LC3 autophagosomes was examined by immunofluorescence(IF) assay. Then HK-2 ceils were co-treated with hypoxia and autophagy inducer rapamycin or autophagy inhibitor Bafi-lomycin A1 ,and they were divided into normoxia control group,nor- moxia plus rapamycin/Bafilomycin A1 group,hypoxia control group, hypoxia plus rapamycin/Bafilomycin A1 group. The expression of Beclinl, LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ , P62 and cleaved-caspase3 were detected by Western blot analysis,while the apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry assay. Results:Compared with the control group(0.161± 0.043),the cleaved-caspase3 expression in 12 h[(0.315 ± 0.060), P=0.019], 18 h[(0.586± 0.063) ,P=0.O00] and 24 h hypoxia subgroup[(0.698± 0.085) ,P=0.000] increased significantly. The apopto- sis of HK-2 cells in 12 h[(23.633 ± 5.346)%], 18 h[(25.200± 4.782)%] and 24 h hypoxia subgroup[(38.567 ± 8.046)%] increased significantly as compared with the control group[(11.800 ±3.966)%](P=0.036,P=0.021,P=0.000). The Beclinl expression in 18 h [(0.557±0.071) ,P=-0.001] and 24 h hypoxia subgroup[(0.897 ± 0.074),P=-0.000] were higher than that in the control group(0.249 ±0.04). The LC3 11/LC3 I expression in 6 h[( 1.795± 0.143) ,P=0.036], 12 h[(2.873±0.078) ,P=O.000], 18 h[(3.029 ± 0.089) ,P= 0.000] and 24 h hypoxia subgroup[(3.735 ± 0.059),P=0.000] were higher than that in the control group(1.322 ± 0.191). The P62 expression in 6 h[(0.776 ± 0.061 ),P=-0.028], 12 h[(0.602 ±0.119),P=-0.001], 18 h[(0.419±0.117),P=O.O00] and 24 h hypoxia subgroup [(0.384 ± 0.068) ,P=-0.000] were lower than that in the control group(0.957 ± 0.035). The counting value of GFP-LC3 puneta in HK- 2 cells in hypoxia group(40.667 ± 6.028) was obviously more than that in the control group(18.667± 5.508)(P=-0.010). We also found that the treatment of the autophagy inducer rapamycin significantly reduced the hypoxia-induced apoptosis[(26.433±3.402), P= 0.012] and cleaved-caspase3 expression[(0.265 ± 0.066),P=0.000] of HK-2 cells compared with that in the hypoxia control group [(36.133± 5.856), (0.358± 0.060)],while the treatment of the autophagy inhibitor Bafilomycin A1 significantly increased the hypox- ia-induced apoptosis[(49.233±3.412),P=0.000] and cleaved-caspase3 expression[(1.242 ± 0.110) ,P=0.000] of HK-2 cells as com- pared to the hypoxia control group[(25.933±3.650), (0.659± 0.060)]. Conclusion:Autophagy protects against the hypoxia- induced apoptosis of HK-2 cells.
