摘要
目的:探讨新发突变基因微管相关肿瘤抑制因子1(microtubule-associated tumor suppressor 1,MTUS1)在心肌致密化过程中的作用机制。方法:构建过表达慢病毒突变组MTUS1、野生组MTUS1及空载组(分别记为突变组、野生组及空载组)CP15-5a细胞模型,Real-time PCR检测各组MTUS1及小GTPase RhoA(ras homolog family member A,RhoA)的m RNA表达水平,Western blot检测各组RhoA蛋白表达水平,细胞免疫荧光检测各组α-tubulin荧光表达强度,并对各组细胞进行细胞划痕实验,检测各组细胞迁移情况。结果:成功构建过表达慢病毒突变组、野生组及空载组细胞模型。细胞免疫荧光结果显示,与野生组相比,突变组细胞α-tubulin荧光强度表达下降(P=0.006)。Real-time PCR及Western blot结果显示,与野生组相比,突变组RhoA的mRNA及蛋白表达水平明显增高(P=0.005,P=0.01)。划痕实验结果显示,与野生组相比,突变组细胞在划痕后6 h、12 h的迁移速率增快(均P=0.000)。结论:MTUS1新发突变是保护性突变,通过降低CP15-5a细胞微管稳定性,并调节RhoA表达增强细胞迁移,从而减低心肌致密化不全的发生率。
Objective:To investigate the mechanism of de novo mutation in the microtubule-associated tumor suppressor 1(MTUS1)gene in the compaction of ventricular myocardium. Methods:Lentiviral vectors containing mutant MTUS1 gene or wild MTUS1 gene or empty vectors were co-infected into CP15-5 a cells(mutation group,wild group,and vector group,respectively). The m RNA expression of MTUS1 and small GTPase-ras homolog family member A(RhoA)was measured by real-time PCR. The protein expression of RhoA was measured by Western blot. The fluorescence intensity of α-tubulin was determined by immunofluorescence assay. Cell migration activity was evaluated by wound-healing assay. Results:Lentiviral vectors containing mutant MTUS1 or wild MTUS1 or empty vectors were successfully co-infected into CP15-5 a cells,which was confirmed by fluorescence staining and real-time PCR. Immunofluorescence assay results showed that the mutation group had a lower fluorescence intensity of α-tubulin than the wild group(P=0.006,P<0.01). Real-time PCR and Western blot results showed that the mutation group had significantly higher m RNA and protein expression of RhoA compared with the wild group(P=0.005,P=0.01). Wound-healing assay showed that the mutation group had significantly higher migration rates at 6 and 12 hours after scratch compared with the wild group(P=0.000,P=0.000). Conclusion:A de novo mutation in the MTUS1 gene is a protective mutation for decreasing the incidence of noncompaction of ventricular myocardium via reducing the stability of microtubules in CP15-5 a cells and increasing cell migration activity by regulating the expression of RhoA.
