摘要:

背景:已有研究证实microRNA-17-92簇在肺动脉高压中发挥着重要作用,精氨酸酶Ⅱ又参与低氧诱导的肺动脉平滑肌细胞的增殖,而人肺动脉平滑肌细胞中微小RNA-17与精氨酸酶Ⅱ之间的相互作用尚未见研究报道。
目的:分析人肺动脉平滑肌细胞中,微小RNA-17与精氨酸酶Ⅱ的关系及其相互作用机制。
方法:选用4-8代的人肺动脉平滑肌细胞,分别给予转染微小RNA-17的抑制剂、增强剂、精氨酸酶Ⅱ小干扰RNA等处理,分别在常氧(体积分数21%O2)及低氧(体积分数1% O2)条件下培养。提取RNA和微小RNA,采用实时定量PCR法检测各组平滑肌细胞中微小RNA-17和精氨酸酶ⅡmRNA的表达,提取蛋白,采用Western blot法比较各组细胞中精氨酸酶Ⅱ等蛋白水平的表达。
结果与结论:低氧下人肺动脉平滑肌细胞中微小RNA-17及精氨酸酶Ⅱ的表达均明显增加,抑制微小RNA-17的表达可阻止低氧诱导的精氨酸酶Ⅱ的表达增加,微小RNA-17的过表达可使精氨酸酶Ⅱ表达上调,精氨酸酶Ⅱ基因敲除后,低氧诱导的微小RNA-17的表达受到抑制。提示人肺动脉平滑肌细胞中,精氨酸酶Ⅱ是微小RNA-17的一个新的靶基因,而且精氨酸酶Ⅱ可以反馈调节微小RNA-17的表达。

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: microRNA-17 is confirmed to play an important role in the development of pulmonary hypertension. Some research has shown that hypoxia-induced proliferation in human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cell depends on the induction of arginase II. There is no report about whether there is some interaction between microRNA-17 and arginase II in human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the possible interactions between microRNA-17 and arginase II in hypoxic human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells.
METHODS: Passage 4 human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells were cultured in 21% O2 and 5% CO2 (normoxia) or 1% O2 and 5% CO2 (hypoxia), and then transfected with mimic or inhibitor of microRNA-17 or arginase II-small interfering RNA. RNA, microRNA and protein were isolated separately. Expression of microRNA-17 and arginase II was detected with real-time quantitative PCR and western blot assay.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The level of microRNA-17 was significantly increased in cultured human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells exposed to 1% O2 hypoxia, as was arginase II mRNA and protein expression. Furthermore, inhibition of microRNA-17 expression decreased the mRNA and protein levels of arginase II in the human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells under hypoxia. Conversely, over-expression of microRNA-17 increased the mRNA and protein levels of arginase II in the human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells under normoxia and hypoxia. Knockdown of arginase II by siRNA abolished the hypoxia-induced up-regulation of microRNA-17 expression. These findings indicate that arginase II is a target gene of microRNA-17 and can regulate the expression of microRNA-17 in human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells.
