摘要: 目的探讨丙戊酸钠(VPA)对SH-SY5Y细胞中miR-34c-5p/ATG4B信号通路的激活作用及对自噬的影响。方法人神经 母细胞瘤细胞SH-SY5Y用含10%胎牛血清的DMEM培养基常规培养,然后使用不同剂量VPA处理SH-SY5Y细胞24 h,采用 定量PCR分析VPA处理对ATG4B mRNA与miR-34c-5p表达的影响,免疫印迹法分析VPA处理对ATG4B蛋白表达的影响,将 含ATG4B启动子片段的报告质粒转染SH-SY5Y细胞,然后通过荧光素酶报告基因系统分析VPA处理对ATG4B启动子活性的 影响,用VPA单独或联合转录抑制剂放线菌素D分别处理SH-SY5Y细胞不同时间,定量PCR分析检测不同处理对ATG4B mRNA稳定性的影响,用VPA单独或联合miR-34c-5p抑制剂处理细胞24 h,通过检测不同处理对ATG4B表达变化的影响,进 而判断miR-34c-5p在VPA下调ATG4B表达中的作用,同时通过Western blot检测不同处理对LC3-II表达的影响,分析细胞自 噬水平变化。结果VPA可剂量依赖性降低SH-SY5Y细胞中ATG4B的mRNA和蛋白水平(P<0.05)。VPA处理不影响SHSY5Y 细胞中ATG4B的启动子活性(P>0.05),但显著下调其mRNA的稳定性(P<0.05)。同时,VPA处理明显增强SH-SY5Y细 胞中miR-34c-5p的表达水平(P<0.05)。使用miR-34c-5p抑制剂与VPA联合处理SH-SY5Y细胞,可逆转VPA对ATG4B表达的 下调作用。VPA处理还下调了SH-SY5Y细胞中LC3-II的表达水平(P<0.05)。结论VPA可能通过激活miR-34c-5p/ATG4B信 号通路而抑制SH-SY5Y细胞自噬。

Abstract: Objective To investigate the effect of sodium valproate (VPA) on activation of miR-34c-5p/ATG4B signaling pathway and autophagy in SH-SY5Y cells. Methods Routinely cultured SH-SY5Y cells were treated with VPA at different doses for 24 h, and the changes in the mRNA levels of ATG4B and miR-34c-5p and the protein expression of ATG4B were assessed using qRTPCR and immunoblotting, respectively. The effect of transfection with a plasmid containing ATG4B promoter on the promoter activity of ATG4B in VPA-treated SH-SY5Y cells was assessed using the reporter gene assay. The stability of ATG4B mRNA was analyzed with qPCR in SH-SY5Y cells treated with VPA alone or with VPA combined with the transcription inhibitor actinomycin D. The expression level of miR-34c-5p was detected using qPCR in SH-SY5Y cells treated with VPA alone or with VPA combined with miR-34c-5p mimics or antagonist, and the role of miR-34c-5p in VPA-induced ATG4B down-regulation was evaluated. The changes in the level of autophagy were evaluated by detecting LC3-II expression in the cells after treatment with VPA or VPA combined with miR-34c-5p antagonist. Results VPA dose-dependently down-regulated the expression of ATG4B at both the mRNA and protein levels in SH-SY5Y cells. VPA treatment did not significantly affect the promoter activity of ATG4B, but obviously lowered the mRNA stability of ATG4B in SH-SY5Y cells. VPA treatment up-regulated the expression of miR-34c-5p, and the miR-34c-5p antagonist reversed VPA-induced down-regulation of ATG4B in SH-SY5Y cells. VPA also down-regulated the expression level of LC3-II in SH-SY5Y cells. Conclusion VPA suppresses autophagy in SH-SY5Y cells possibly via activating miR-34c-5p/ATG4B signaling pathway.
