摘要
目的:探讨自噬对组蛋白介导的人肾小管上皮细胞(HK-2)凋亡的效应。方法:以不同浓度组蛋白刺激HK-2,应用流式细胞仪和免疫印迹方法检测HK-2凋亡和自噬相关蛋白LC3Ⅱ、Beclin1的表达情况,初步了解组蛋白对HK-2凋亡和自噬的影响。以自噬抑制剂3-甲基腺嘌呤(3-MA)预处理后,观察组蛋白诱导的HK-2凋亡和caspase-3活化的情况,进一步明确自噬通路对凋亡的作用。结果:组蛋白25、50、100μg/mL组HK-2凋亡率和LC3Ⅱ、Beclin1表达水平均显著升高(P<0.05),并且组蛋白诱导HK-2凋亡具有浓度依赖效应。自噬抑制剂3-MA显著增强HK-2凋亡和caspase-3活化(P<0.05)。结论:自噬能够减轻组蛋白介导的HK-2凋亡,提示活化自噬通路在急性肾损伤中具有潜在的应用价值。
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of autophagy on histone-mediated apoptosis of human proximal tubular endothelial cells(HK-2).MethodsTo investigate the effect of histones on the autophagy and apoptosis,HK-2 cells were treated with increasing concentrations of histones.The rate of apoptosis and the expressions of autophagy-related protien LC3Ⅱ and Beclin1 in HK-2 cells were detected by using flow cytometry and immunoblotting assay,respectively.To further confirm the effect of autophagy on apoptosis of HK-2 cells,cells were incubated with histones after one hour pretreatment with 10 mmol/L 3-MA,a pharmacological inhibitor.The rate of apoptosis and the activity of caspase-3 of HK-2 cells were detected separately by using flow cytometry and immunoblotting assay.ResultsHistones significantly enhanced apoptosis of HK-2 cells in a dose-dependent manner,with the increased expressions of LC3Ⅱ and Beclin1.Blockage of autophagy by 3-MA significantly increased the apoptosis of HK-2 cells and the activity of caspase3.ConclusionAutophagy in proximal tubules protects against apoptosis induced by histones,with potential value in acute kidney injury(AKI).
