摘要:

背景:血管平滑肌细胞增殖、迁移及表型改变是动脉粥样硬化发生的中心环节,一系列相关基因的甲基化参与该过程。
目的:观察血管平滑肌细胞p21基因启动子甲基化对其增殖活性的影响。
方法:采用组织贴块法培养人脐血管平滑肌细胞,给予不同质量浓度氧化低密度脂蛋白(0,10,20,40 mg/L)孵育24 h,甲基化特异PCR检测p21基因启动子区CpG岛甲基化程度,反转录PCR检测p21 mRNA表达,MTT比色法测定血管平滑肌细胞增殖活性。
结果与结论:氧化低密度脂蛋白呈浓度依赖性促进p21启动子甲基化和降低p21 mRNA表达,同时平滑细胞增殖活性增高。提示氧化低密度脂蛋白可以通过p21基因甲基化促进血管平滑肌细胞增殖,p21基因甲基化可能在动脉粥样硬化发生中起到一定作用。

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Proliferation, migration and phenotypic changes of vascular smooth muscle cells is the core of the occurrence of atherosclerosis, and a series of related genes via methylation are involved in the process.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of oxidized low density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) on DNA methylation in the promoter region of the p21 gene and its potential mechanism in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. 
METHODS: Cultured human vascular smooth muscle cells were treated with different concentrations of ox-LDL (0, 10, 20, 40 mg/L) for 24 hours. The degree of DNA methylation was assayed by methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction, the expression of p21 mRNA was measured by reverse transcriptional polymerase chain reaction and the proliferative activity of vascular smooth muscle cells was determined by the MTT assay. 
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The ox-LDL treatment resulted in a promotion in the methylation in the promoter region of the p21 gene and a decrease in mRNA expression with a concentration-dependent manner; it also induced a dose-dependent promoting effect on vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation. The atherogenic mechanism of ox-LDL might promote vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation by the hypermethylation of the p21 gene that may lead to the occurrence and development of atherosclerosis.
