摘要
背景:研究显示转化生长因子β激活激酶1(transforming growth factor beta activated kinase 1,TAK1)在骨、关节的发育以及骨形态信号转导中发挥着重要作用,与骨关节炎的发生也存在一定的相关性。目的:探究泼尼松龙通过抑制TAK1表达对诱导成骨细胞凋亡的影响。方法:将M3T3-E1成骨细胞经原代培养后传代培养。取第3代细胞分为3组,正常细胞组(对照组)、阴性转染+泼尼松龙组、TAK1 siRNA转染+泼尼松龙组。采用碱性磷酸酶染色和钙结节染色评估成骨细胞分化能力的变化;采用免疫印迹法(Western blot)检测细胞内磷酸化(p)-TAK1、TAK1、磷酸化c-jun氨基末端激酶(p-JNK)、JNK蛋白表达,MTT法检测M3T3-E1细胞增殖情况;流式细胞仪检测细胞周期以及细胞凋亡变化。结果与结论:①TAK1 siRNA转染+泼尼松龙组细胞的碱性磷酸酶红染程度较少,阴性转染+泼尼松龙组次之,正常细胞组碱性磷酸酶染色最多;钙结节染色显示与正常细胞组相比,阴性转染+泼尼松龙组钙结节数量明显减少,TAK1 siRNA转染+泼尼松龙组结节数量最少;②荧光显微镜显示,阴性转染+泼尼松龙组细胞出现破碎,形态发生改变,TAK1 siRNA转染+泼尼松龙组破碎细胞数量明显增加;③Western Blot显示,3组间p-TAK1、p-JNK蛋白表达量逐渐降低(P <0.05);④MTT检测显示,3组间TAK1 siRNA转染+泼尼松龙组细胞增殖抑制率最高(P <0.05);在12-48 h随着时间的延长,细胞增殖抑制率呈逐渐上升趋势,在72 h时开始下降;⑤流式细胞仪检测结果显示,TAK1 siRNA转染+泼尼松龙组G_2期细胞比例高于其他2组,S期细胞比例显著低于其他2组(P <0.05);⑥TAK1 siRNA转染+泼尼松龙组细胞凋亡率明显高于正常细胞组、阴性转染+泼尼松龙组(P <0.05);⑦结果说明,沉默TAK1表达后能够增强泼尼松龙诱导成骨细胞凋亡的作用,可能与JNK信号通路相关。
BACKGROUND: Transforming growth factor beta activated kinase 1(TAK1) has been shown to play important roles in development of bone and joint and bone morphology signal transduction, and is related to osteoarthritis.OBJECTIVE: To explore the influence of prednisolone on osteoblast apoptosis induced by inhibiting TAK1 expression.METHODS: M3T3-E1 osteoblasts were cultured and passaged. The third generation of cells were divided into three groups: control group(normal group), negative transfection + prednisolone group, and TAK1 siRNA transfection + prednisolone group. The changes of osteoblast differentiation ability were evaluated by alkaline phosphatase staining and calcium nodule staining. Intracellular phosphorylation(p)-TAK1,and TAK1, phosphorylated c-jun amino, terminal kinase(p-JNK), and JNK protein expression levels were detected by western blot assay.MTT assay was used for M3T3-E1 cell proliferation. Flow cytometry was used to detect the cell cycle and apoptosis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Alkaline phosphatase staining showed that the number of stained cells in the TAK1 siRNA transfection +prednisolone group was least, followed by negative transfection + prednisolone group, and most in the control group. Calcium nodule staining showed that the number of intracellular calcium nodules in the negative transfection + prednisolone and TAK1 siRNA transfection +prednisolone groups decreased compared with the control group, especially the TAK1 siRNA transfection + prednisolone group.(2)Fluorescence microscope showed that the cells in the negative transfection + prednisolone group were broken and the morphology changed.The number of broken cells in the TAK1 siRNA transfection + prednisolone group increased significantly.(3) Western blot assay showed that the expression levels of p-TAK1 and p-JNK protein decreased gradually(P < 0.05).(4) MTT assay showed that TAK1 siRNA transfection +prednisolone group had highest cell inhibition rate(P < 0.05). Within 12 to 48 hours, the cell inhibition rate was on a rise, and then decreased at 72 hours.(5) The results of flow cytometry showed that the proportion of G_2 phase cells in the TAK1 siRNA transfection + prednisolone group was higher than that in the other two groups, and the proportion of S phase cells was lower than that in the other two groups(P < 0.05).(6) The apoptosis rate in the TAK1 siRNA transfection + prednisolone group was higher than that in the other two groups(P < 0.05).(7) These results suggest that silencing TAK1 expression can increase the apoptosis of osteoblasts induced by prednisolone, which may be related to JNK signaling pathway.
