摘要: 目的探讨下调miR-205-5p对3-溴丙酮酸诱导的鼻咽癌CNE2Z细胞凋亡的影响。方法以鼻咽癌CNE2Z细胞株为研究 对象,实验分为4组,分别为对照组、转染组(转染miR-205-5p-mimic或miR-205-5p-inhibitor)、3-溴丙酮酸组(80 μmol/L 3-溴丙 酮酸)、合用组(转染miR-205-5p-mimic或miR-205-5p-inhibitor后合用3-溴丙酮酸)。MTT法检测3-溴丙酮酸和miR-205-5p对 CNE2Z细胞增殖的影响;线粒体膜电位检测试剂盒(JC-1)检测细胞早期凋亡情况;DAPI荧光染色法检测细胞核形态变化以及 细胞晚期凋亡情况;Annexin Ⅴ-FITC/PI双染法检测细胞凋亡率的变化;Western blot检测Bcl-2、Bax、Mcl-1、Bak蛋白的表达。 结果3-溴丙酮酸对CNE2Z 细胞的增殖有明显的抑制作用,并且随着药物浓度和作用时间的增加细胞增殖抑制作用越明 显;80 μmol/L 3-溴丙酮酸处理CNE2Z细胞24、48、72 h的抑制率分别为(45.7±1.21)%、(64.4±2.02)% 、(78.3±1.55)%;转染miR- 205-5p-mimic 后,80 μmol/L 3-溴丙酮酸作用24、48、72 h 的抑制率分别为(27.7±1.04)%、(34.8±2.10)%、(44.3±1.57)%;转染 miR-205-5p-inhibitor后,80 μmol/L 3-溴丙酮酸作用24、48、72 h的抑制率分别为(80.5±0.94)%、(87.9±0.50)%、(93.8±1.16)%。 线粒体膜电位检测结果显示,转染miR-205-5p-inhibitor后3-溴丙酮酸组红绿荧光的相对比例明显降低;DAPI荧光检测结果显 示,转染miR-205-5p-inhibitor后3-溴丙酮酸组的细胞核碎裂及核固缩明显增加;Annexin Ⅴ-FITC/PI双染法检测结果显示,转 染miR-205-5p-inhibitor 后3-溴丙酮酸组的凋亡率明显高于单独处理组的凋亡率(P<0.01);Western blot 检测结果显示,转染 miR-205-5p-inhibitor后3-溴丙酮酸组的Bcl-2、Mcl-1蛋白的表达水平明显降低,Bax、Bak蛋白的表达水平明显增高。结论3-溴 丙酮酸能诱导CNE2Z细胞凋亡,转染miR-205-5p-inhibitor 能增强3-溴丙酮酸诱导的细胞凋亡,其机制可能与下调Mcl-1 和 Bcl-2表达,上调Bak和Bax蛋白的表达有关。

Abstract: Objective To investigate the effect of down-regulation of miR-205-5p on 3-bromopyruvate-induced apoptosis in human nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE2Z cells. Methods Nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE2Z cells were transfected with miR- 205-5p-mimic or miR-205-5p-inhibitor, treated with 80 μmol/L 3-bromopyruvate alone, or exposed to both of the treatments. The proliferation of the treated cells was examined with MTT assay, and early apoptosis of the cells was detected using a mitochondrial membrane potential detection kit (JC-1). DAPI fluorescence staining was used to detect morphological changes of the cell nuclei and late cell apoptosis; Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining was employed to detect the cell apoptosis rate. Western blotting was used to detect the expressions of Bcl-2, Bax, Mcl-1 and Bak proteins. Results Exposure to 3-bromopyruvate significantly inhibited the proliferation of CNE2Z cells, and increasing the drug concentration and extending the treatment time produced stronger inhibitory effects. Treatment with 80 μmol/L 3-bromopyruvate for 24, 48 and 72 h resulted in inhibition rates of (45.7±1.21)%, (64.4±2.02)% and (78.3±1.55)% in non-transfected CNE2Z cells, respectively; the inhibition rates were (27.7±1.04)%, (34.8±2.10)% and (44.3±1.57)% in the cells transfected with miR-205-5p-mimic, and were (80.5 ± 0.94)% , (87.9 ± 0.50)% and (93.8 ± 1.16)% in cells transfected with miR-205-5p-inhibitor, respectively. The results of mitochondrial membrane potential detection showed that the relative proportion of red and green fluorescence decreased significantly in miR-205-5p-inhibitor-transfected cells with 3-bromopyruvate treatment. Combined treatment of the cells with 3-bromopyruvate and miR-205-5p-inhibitor transfection obviously increased nuclear fragmentation and nuclear pyknosis and significantly increased cell apoptotic rate as compared with the two treatments alone (P<0.01), causing also decreased expressions of Bcl-2 and Mcl-1 proteins and increased expressions of Bax and Bak proteins. Conclusion Inhibition of miR-205-5p enhances the proapototic effect of 3-bromopyruvate in CNE2Z cells possibly in relation to the down-regulation of Mcl-1 and Bcl-2 and the up-regulation of Bak and Bax proteins.
