摘要
探讨神经营养因子-3(neurotrophin-3,NT-3)对大鼠骨髓间充质干细胞(bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells,BMSCs)增殖及凋亡的影响及可能机制。方法将NT-3过表达及干扰慢病毒转染的BMSCs细胞与神经元细胞共培养,分为过表达对照组、NT-3转染组、抑制对照转染组、shRNA-NT-3转染组(NT-3沉默组)4组,MTT检测共培养24 h、48 h、72 h细胞增殖情况;流式细胞术检测48 h细胞周期变化及凋亡情况;实时荧光定量PCR检测C/EBPβ mRNA表达情况;Western blot检测C/EBPβ蛋白表达情况。结果MTT结果显示,与过表达对照组比较,48 h及72 h时间点NT-3转染组BMSCs细胞增殖能力(0.650±0.042,0.826±0.074)显著增强(P〈0.05),与抑制对照转染组比较,48 h及72 h时间点NT-3沉默组BMSCs细胞增殖能力(0.426±0.062,0.516±0.088)显著降低(P〈0.05);流式细胞术检测48 h细胞周期及凋亡结果显示,NT-3转染组BMSCs细胞G1期比例降低,G2及S期升高,凋亡减少;NT-3沉默组BMSCs细胞G1期比例升高,G2及S期降低,凋亡增加;荧光定量PCR及Western blot结果表明C/EBPβ mRNA及蛋白水平在NT-3转染组BMSCs细胞中显著上调,而在NT-3沉默组BMSCs细胞中显著降低(P〈0.05)。结论NT-3可能通过促进C/EBPβ表达影响其下游相关靶基因的表达,从而抑制BMSCs细胞增殖分化过程中的细胞凋亡。
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) on the proliferation and apoptosis of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in rats and possible mechanisms.MethodsThe NT-3 overexpression and lentiviral transfection of BMSCs were co-cultured with neuronal cells respectively and then they were divided into overexpression control group, NT-3 transfection group and shRNA-NT-3 transfection group (NT-3 silencing group). MTT assay was used to detect the cell culture for 24 h, 48 h and 72 h. Cell cycle and apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry for 48 h. Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the expression of C/EBPβmRNA.The expression of C/EBPβprotein was detected by Western blot.ResultsMTT results showed that the proliferation ability of BMSCs in the NT-3 overexpression group was significantly higher than that in the control group (0.650±0.042, 0.826±0.074) at 48 h and 72 h (P〈0.05). Compared with the control group (P〈0.05), the cell cycle and apoptosis of BMSCs in NT-3 silencing group were significantly decreased at 48 h and 72 h (P〈0.05). The results of 48 h cell cycle and apoptosis showed that the percentage of G1 phase in BMSCs was decreased, G2 and S were increased and the apoptosis was decreased. The percentage of G1 phase in G2-S phase and the increase of apoptosis were increased in NT-3 silencing group. The results of Western Blot showed that C/EBPβ mRNA and protein levels were significantly up-regulated in BMSCs of NT-3 overexpression group and significantly decreased in NT-3 silencing group (P〈0.05).ConclusionNT-3 may promote the expression of C/EBP beta and affect the expression of its downstream target genes, which can inhibit the apoptosis of BMSCs cells.
