摘要
目的:探究DKK3基因过表达对人瘢痕成纤维细胞增殖和凋亡的影响。方法:取瘢痕疙瘩组织21例和正常皮肤组织20例,采用qRT-PCR检测其中DKK3 mRNA的表达水平。构建真核表达质粒pc DNA3. 0-DKK3,通过脂质体介导的方法将其转入瘢痕成纤维细胞中(DKK3组),未转染细胞为对照组,转染pc DNA3. 0空质粒的细胞为pc DNA组。转染48 h后,qRT-PCR和Western blot检测转染效率; CCK-8法检测成纤维细胞的增殖情况;双染法检测成纤维细胞的凋亡情况。结果:DKK3 mRNA在瘢痕疙瘩组织中表达下调(P <0. 05)。3组瘢痕疙瘩成纤维细胞中DKK3 mRNA和蛋白的表达差异有统计学意义(P <0. 05),DKK3组高于其他两组(P <0. 05)。3组细胞凋亡和增殖情况差异有统计学意义(P <0. 05),DKK3组增殖减少,凋亡增加(P <0. 05)。结论:DKK3基因过表达可抑制瘢痕疙瘩成纤维细胞的增殖并诱导其发生凋亡。
Aim: To investigate the effects of overexpression of DKK3 gene on proliferation and apoptosis of human keloid fibroblasts. Methods: A total of 21 cases of keloid tissue and 20 cases of normal skin tissue were taken. qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression level of DKK3 mRNA. The eukaryotic expression plasmid pc DNA3. 0-DKK3 was constructed and transferred into scar fibroblasts by liposome-mediated method(DKK3 group),untransfected cells were used as control group,and empty plasmid pc DNA3. 0 was transfected as negative control(pc DNA group). After transfection for 48 hours,qRT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the transfection efficiency; the proliferation of fibroblasts was detected by CCK-8 method; the apoptosis of fibroblasts was detected by double staining method. Results: The level of DKK3 mRNA was down-regulated in keloid tissue(P < 0. 05). The levels of DKK3 mRNA and protein in keloid fibroblasts of the three groups were significantly different(P < 0. 05),which was higher in the DKK3 group than those in the other two groups(P <0. 05). The apoptosis and proliferation among the 3 groups were statistically different(P < 0. 05),the proliferation of keloid fibroblasts in DKK3 group was decreased(P < 0. 05),and the apoptosis was increased(P < 0. 05). Conclusion: Overexpression of DKK3 gene could inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis of keloid fibroblasts.
