【關(guān)鍵詞】miR-202;支氣管肺癌;GLI-2;細(xì)胞增殖;細(xì)胞凋亡
肺癌嚴(yán)重威脅著人類的生命健康,在過去的幾十年,隨著人口老齡化、污染以及各種致癌物質(zhì)的被動攝入增加,導(dǎo)致肺癌的發(fā)生率逐年升高[1-3]。盡管近年來診療手段的不斷發(fā)展,但是肺癌患者5年生存率仍低于15%[4-5]。因此,亟待探索新的治療策略和方法。
microRNAs (miRNAs)是普遍存在于細(xì)胞內(nèi)、僅有18-25bp的非編碼RNA。miRNA主要功能是通過與其mRNA的3′端非編碼區(qū)(untranslated region, UTR)結(jié)合,抑制靶mRNA的翻譯或直接降解mRNA,從而抑制靶蛋白的表達(dá)及其功能[6]。近年來對miRNA的研究表明,其在肺癌的發(fā)生發(fā)展中發(fā)揮著重要作用[7]。既往研究表明,上調(diào)miR-202可抑制LRP6蛋白的表達(dá),進(jìn)而抑制肝細(xì)胞癌的增殖[8]。在多發(fā)性骨髓瘤中,miR-202發(fā)揮著負(fù)性調(diào)節(jié)細(xì)胞生存、增殖和粘附的功能[9],但是miR-202在肺癌中發(fā)揮何種作用尚不清楚。本研究旨在探討miR-202在肺癌A549細(xì)胞中的作用及其可能的機(jī)制,為肺癌的治療提供新的靶點(diǎn)和策略。

一、miR-202在A549細(xì)胞和肺上皮細(xì)胞BEAS-2B細(xì)胞中的表達(dá)
本研究利用qPCR檢測了miR-202在A549細(xì)胞和肺上皮細(xì)胞BEAS-2B細(xì)胞中的表達(dá)。發(fā)現(xiàn)miR-202在A549細(xì)胞中的相對表達(dá)量僅為BEAS-2B細(xì)胞的40±4.5%,miR-202在A549細(xì)胞中的相對表達(dá)量顯著低于在BEAS-2B細(xì)胞中的表達(dá)量(P<0.01),見圖1。

二、轉(zhuǎn)染miR-202 minic對 A549細(xì)胞增殖凋亡的影響
分別將miR-202 minic和miR-NC 轉(zhuǎn)染進(jìn)入A549細(xì)胞48 h后,利用qPCR檢測A549細(xì)胞中的miR-202表達(dá)水平,發(fā)現(xiàn)miR-202 minic和miR-NC組中miR-202的相對表達(dá)量分別是對照組的3.04±0.13和1.11±0.02倍,miR-202 minic和miR-NC組中miR-202的相對表達(dá)量顯著高于對照組(P<0.01),并且miR-202 minic 組中miR-202的表達(dá)較miR-NC中的顯著升高(P<0.01) (見圖2A)。利用MTT檢測轉(zhuǎn)染miR-202 minic和miR-NC后72 h內(nèi),其對細(xì)胞活力的抑制情況(見圖2B),發(fā)現(xiàn)miR-202 minic在12、24、48和72 h的細(xì)胞抑制率分別0.8± 0.05%、3.7±0.60%、24.5±3.40%、47.3±5.60%和59.8±4.90%。miR-NC組各時間點(diǎn)的細(xì)胞抑制率分別0.9±0.02%、2.5±0.30%、4.3±0.80%、5.6±0.78%和7.8±0.90%。對照組各時間點(diǎn)的細(xì)胞抑制率分別0%、1.3±0.02%、3.5±0.03%、4.1±0.70%和4.7±0.50%。miR-202 minic組在12、24、48和72 h的細(xì)胞抑制率顯著高于對照組和miR-NC組(P<0.01)。miR-NC組在72 h時細(xì)胞抑制率顯著高于對照組(P<0.01)。此外,使用流式細(xì)胞術(shù)檢測了轉(zhuǎn)染48 h后的miR-202 minic和miR-NC對細(xì)胞凋亡的影響(見圖2C), 發(fā)現(xiàn)miR-202 minic組、 miR-NC組和對照組的細(xì)胞凋亡率分別為54.20±5.68%、12.51±4.39%和2.53±1.03%。miR-202 minic組細(xì)胞凋亡率顯著高于miR-NC和對照組(P<0.01),并且miR-NC組的細(xì)胞凋亡率顯著高于對照組(P<0.01)。上述研究說明上調(diào)miR-202的表達(dá)可顯著抑肺癌A549細(xì)胞的增殖、誘導(dǎo)其凋亡。

三、GLI-2是miR-202的下游直接靶點(diǎn)
通過miRNA預(yù)測軟件DIANA-MICROT、targetscan以及MIRDB進(jìn)行分析,推測GLI-2為miR-202的靶基因。分別構(gòu)建GLI-2 野生型和突變型3′UTR質(zhì)粒載體(模式圖見圖3A),與pRL-TK質(zhì)粒、pre-miR-202或miR-NC一起轉(zhuǎn)染到A549細(xì)胞中后檢測熒光素酶活性,發(fā)現(xiàn)野生型GLI-2 3′UTR質(zhì)粒和pre-miR-202共轉(zhuǎn)染組,其熒光素酶活性顯著低于野生型GLI-2質(zhì)粒和miR-NC共轉(zhuǎn)染組(P<0.01)。而突變型GLI-2 3′UTR質(zhì)粒和pre-miR-202共轉(zhuǎn)染組與突變型GLI-2 3′UTR質(zhì)粒和miR-NC共轉(zhuǎn)染組的熒光素酶活性無顯著差異(P>0.05),說明GLI-2是miR-202的直接靶點(diǎn)(見圖3B)。此外,我們還檢測了A549細(xì)胞轉(zhuǎn)染miR-202minc 和miR-NC后GLI-2蛋白的表達(dá)情況,發(fā)現(xiàn)miR-202minc轉(zhuǎn)染A549細(xì)胞后可顯著降低GLI-2蛋白的表達(dá)(P<0.05),而miR-NC組與對照組相比較,GLI-2蛋白表達(dá)無顯著差異(P>0.05) (見圖3C)。進(jìn)一步說明GLI-2是miR-202的直接靶點(diǎn)。
圖3GLI-2是miR-202的下游直接靶點(diǎn);注:A. miR-202與GLI-2 3′UTR端結(jié)合以及構(gòu)建突變型GLI-2 3′UTR端的模式圖;B.熒光素酶報(bào)告基因檢測miR-202與GLI-2 3′UTR端的結(jié)合情況;*, 與野生型GLI-2 3′UTR質(zhì)粒和pre-miR-202共轉(zhuǎn)染組P<0.01;C. western blot檢測轉(zhuǎn)染miR-202與miR-NC 48 h后,A549細(xì)胞中GLI-2蛋白的表達(dá)情況
本研究發(fā)現(xiàn)上皮來源的肺癌A549細(xì)胞中miR-202的表達(dá)顯著低于正常肺上皮BEAS-2B細(xì)胞。我們應(yīng)用miR-202 minic 轉(zhuǎn)染A549細(xì)胞后,發(fā)現(xiàn)其能下調(diào)GLI-2的表達(dá),能有效抑制A549的增殖并誘導(dǎo)其凋亡。此外,本研究還發(fā)現(xiàn)在A549細(xì)胞中GLI-2是miR-202的直接靶點(diǎn)。因此,推測miR-202通過調(diào)控GLI-2,進(jìn)而可影響A549細(xì)胞的增殖和凋亡。
最近的研究表明,miRNA的紊亂在肺癌的發(fā)生和發(fā)展中發(fā)揮著重要作用[10]。miR-21在肺癌組織中顯著上調(diào)[11],并且通過抑制抑癌基因APaf1、Fas1g、RhoB和PTEN,從而促進(jìn)肺癌的進(jìn)展[12]。miR-17/92a簇,包含miR-17-3p、miR-17-5p、miR-18a、miR-19a、miR-20a、 miR-19b-1和 miR-92a等同樣也在肺癌中呈高表達(dá)。通過調(diào)控HIF-1a、PTEN、BCL2L11、CDKNA、TSP-1等基因,從而促進(jìn)血管的生成、促進(jìn)細(xì)胞增殖和抑制細(xì)胞凋亡[13]。其他研究也同樣發(fā)現(xiàn)Lethal-7 (let-7)在肺癌組織中呈低表達(dá),并且其表達(dá)水平與肺癌預(yù)后密切相關(guān)[14-15]。Let-7主要通過下調(diào)K-RAS、MYC和HMGA2等癌基因,進(jìn)而發(fā)揮抑制肺癌發(fā)生、發(fā)展的作用[16]。近期對肺癌組織的miRNA芯片篩查中,發(fā)現(xiàn)miR-202在肺癌組織中較正常肺組織中表達(dá)顯著下調(diào)[17]。本實(shí)驗(yàn)同樣發(fā)現(xiàn),肺癌A549細(xì)胞中miR-202的表達(dá)明顯低于正常肺上皮細(xì)胞的表達(dá)。我們通過miR-202 minic上調(diào)A549細(xì)胞中miR-202的表達(dá),發(fā)現(xiàn)其能有效的抑制A549細(xì)胞的增殖。同樣,miR-202也可抑制肝癌細(xì)胞、多發(fā)性骨髓瘤細(xì)胞的增殖、促進(jìn)其凋亡[8-9]。但其精確的作用機(jī)制尚不清楚。
本研究通過生物信息學(xué)分析對miR-202的下游靶點(diǎn)進(jìn)行預(yù)測,并利用熒光素酶報(bào)告基因,在A549細(xì)胞中驗(yàn)證了膠質(zhì)瘤相關(guān)癌基因家族鋅指蛋白-2 (glioma-associated oncogene family zinc figure 2, GLI-2)是miR-202的靶基因。GLI-2是GLI家族成員之一,也被稱為HPE9、THP,是由1586個氨基酸組成的核蛋白,主要作為轉(zhuǎn)錄激活子發(fā)揮作用。進(jìn)一步研究表明,GLI-2是hedgehog (Hh) 信號通路的重要效應(yīng)分子,Hh信號通路可通過GLI-2,進(jìn)而激活轉(zhuǎn)錄因子,上調(diào)各種靶蛋白從而發(fā)揮功能[18]。Im等發(fā)現(xiàn),乳腺癌和肝癌組織中GLI-2陽性表達(dá)的患者總體生存率顯著低于肺癌組織中GLI-2陰性表達(dá)患者的生存率[19-20]。An等[21]研究發(fā)現(xiàn)上調(diào)GLI-2可促進(jìn)胰腺癌細(xì)胞的增殖以及降低細(xì)胞對吉西他濱的敏感性。相反,采用siRNA敲除骨肉瘤細(xì)胞中GLI-2的表達(dá),可顯著抑制細(xì)胞增殖活性,誘導(dǎo)其凋亡[22]。本研究發(fā)現(xiàn)上調(diào)miR-202可顯著降低GLI-2的表達(dá),并且抑制細(xì)胞的增殖并誘導(dǎo)凋亡。因此,我們推測miR-202可能通過抑制GLI-2,進(jìn)而抑制細(xì)胞的增殖、誘導(dǎo)其凋亡,但其具體機(jī)制仍不清楚。
本研究僅證實(shí)miR-202具有調(diào)控A549細(xì)胞短期增殖和凋亡的能力,尚未對調(diào)控長期增殖的能力以及體內(nèi)miR-202是否發(fā)揮作用進(jìn)行驗(yàn)證。雖然觀察到上調(diào)miR-202可抑制GLI-2的表達(dá),但GLI-2如何影響增殖和凋亡的具體機(jī)制尚不清楚。
綜上所述,miR-202可調(diào)控下游靶基因GLI-2,從而發(fā)揮調(diào)控A549細(xì)胞增殖、凋亡的作用,其可作為治療肺癌的潛在靶點(diǎn)。

【Abstract】ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism and effect of miR-202 regulation the proliferation and apoptosis of A549 cells. MethodA549 cells and lung epithelial BEAS-2B cells were cultured, and then miR-202 level of A549 and BEAS-2B cells was analyzed by realtime-PCR. The sequence of miR-202 and miR-NC was synthesized. They were transfected into A549 cells, the rate of proliferation inhibition was detected by MTT at 12, 24, and 48 h, cellular apoptosis rate of A549 cells and the GLI-2 protein expression was measured by FACS and western blot at 48 h, respectively. The wild-type and mutation of GLI-2 3′UTR was inserted into the plasmid of pMIR-REPORTTMluciferase vector, which was cotransfected into A549 with pRL-TK plasmid. pre-miR-202 and miR-NC was transfected into these cells, which had been transfected pMIR-REPORTTMluciferase vector and pRL-TK plasmid. Firefly and Renilla reniformis luciferase activities were measured 48 h later. Result the expression of miR-202 was lower in A549 cells than in BEAS-2B cells (P<0.01). The cellular inhibition rate was higher in miR-202 minic group than in miR-NC and control group at 12, 24, 48, and 72 h (P<0.01), and the cellular inhibition rate was significant higher in miR-NC group than control group (P<0.01). Moreover, the apoptosis of A549 cells was higher in miR-202 minic group than in miR-NC and control group at 72 h (P<0.01). Luciferase assay showed GLI-2 was a direct target gene of miR-202. Up-regulation of miR-202 was significant decreased the expression of GLI-2 while miR-202 minic was transfected into A549 cells. GLI-2 protein expression was no significant difference between miR-NC group and control. ConclusionmiR-202 regulated the proliferation and apoptosis of A549 cells through directed mediated target gene GLI-2, and it would as a novel target for lung cancer treatment.
