摘要:

文题释义:

铁死亡:是一种铁依赖性的新型细胞程序性死亡方式,由DIXON等人于2012年首次提出,这种死亡方式与铁代谢异常和脂质过氧化密切相关,作用分子、效应形态及生化特征均不同于凋亡、自噬、坏死和焦亡等其他细胞死亡形式。
胞苷/尿苷单磷酸激酶2:是一种定位于线粒体的激酶,负责催化胞苷单磷酸和尿苷单磷酸磷酸化为相应的二磷酸形式,为核苷酸合成提供前体物质,参与维持线粒体DNA的复制与修复,影响能量代谢稳态,已被证实在抵抗细菌、病毒感染和抗肿瘤治疗中具有重要作用。

摘要
背景:铁死亡是一种铁依赖性细胞程序性死亡,与牙周、种植体周炎症性疾病关系密切,胞苷/尿苷单磷酸激酶2是一种定位于线粒体参与调控组织细胞活化和炎症反应的激酶,二者在种植体周炎中的调控机制尚不清楚。
目的:通过脂多糖构建种植体周炎的体外细胞模型,探讨胞苷/尿苷单磷酸激酶2对脂多糖诱导的人牙龈成纤维细胞铁死亡的调控机制。
方法:①采用组织块培养法培养人牙龈成纤维细胞,分别加入0(正常对照组)、10 μg/mL脂多糖刺激12 h,通过RT-qPCR和Western blot检测铁死亡相关标志物谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶4、溶质载体家族7成员11和酰基辅酶A合成酶长链家族成员4及胞苷/尿苷单磷酸激酶2的mRNA与蛋白表达,通过活性氧染色及C11-Bodipy染色检测脂质过氧化水平,通过比色法检测细胞内丙二醛、超氧化物歧化酶水平以及还原型谷胱甘肽/氧化型谷胱甘肽比率;②siRNA沉默胞苷/尿苷单磷酸激酶2,再以10 μg/mL脂多糖刺激细胞12 h,检测上述指标的改变。
结果与结论:①10 μg/mL脂多糖刺激人牙龈成纤维细胞12 h后,铁死亡标志物酰基辅酶A合成酶长链家族成员4表达上调,铁死亡负性调控因子谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶4和溶质载体家族7成员11表达下调,活性氧释放增加,丙二醛水平升高,超氧化物歧化酶活性及还原型谷胱甘肽/氧化型谷胱甘肽比率降低,胞苷/尿苷单磷酸激酶2表达上调;②siRNA沉默胞苷/尿苷单磷酸激酶2后,再以10 μg/mL脂多糖刺激细胞12 h,酰基辅酶A合成酶长链家族成员4表达下调,谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶4和溶质载体家族7成员11表达上调,活性氧释放减少,丙二醛水平降低,超氧化物歧化酶活性及还原型谷胱甘肽/氧化型谷胱甘肽比率升高。结果表明,胞苷/尿苷单磷酸激酶2是种植体周炎牙龈成纤维细胞铁死亡的关键调控基因,沉默胞苷/尿苷单磷酸激酶2可抑制脂多糖诱导的人牙龈成纤维细胞铁死亡。

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent form of programmed cell death closely associated with periodontal and peri-implant inflammatory diseases. Cytidine/uridine monophosphate kinase 2 is a kinase localized in mitochondria that participates in regulating tissue cell activation and inflammatory responses. The regulatory mechanisms of both in peri-implantitis remain unclear.
OBJECTIVE: To construct an in vitro cell model of peri-implantitis using lipopolysaccharide and explore the regulatory mechanism of cytidine/uridine monophosphate kinase 2 on lipopolysaccharide-induced ferroptosis in human gingival fibroblasts.
METHODS: (1) Human gingival fibroblasts were cultured using the tissue explant culture method and treated with 0 μg/mL (normal control group) or 10 μg/mL lipopolysaccharide for 12 hours. The mRNA and protein expression levels of ferroptosis-related markers glutathione peroxidase 4, solute carrier family 7 member 11, and acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4, as well as cytidine/uridine monophosphate kinase 2, were detected by RT-qPCR and western blot assay. Lipid peroxidation levels were detected by reactive oxygen species staining and C11-Bodipy staining. Intracellular malondialdehyde, superoxide dismutase levels, and the reduced glutathione/oxidized glutathione ratio were detected by colorimetric methods. (2) Cytidine/uridine monophosphate kinase 2 was silenced using siRNA, and then cells were stimulated with 10 μg/mL lipopolysaccharide for 12 hours. The changes in the above indicators were then detected.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) After stimulating human gingival fibroblasts with 10 μg/mL lipopolysaccharide for 12 hours, the expression of the ferroptosis marker acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 was upregulated, while the expression of the negative ferroptosis regulators glutathione peroxidase 4 and solute carrier family 7 member 11 was downregulated. Reactive oxygen species release increased, malondialdehyde levels increased, superoxide dismutase activity and the reduced glutathione/oxidized glutathione ratio decreased, and cytidine/uridine monophosphate kinase 2 expression was upregulated. (2) After silencing cytidine/uridine monophosphate kinase 2 with siRNA, and then stimulating the cells with 10 μg/mL lipopolysaccharide for 12 hours, acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 expression was downregulated, glutathione peroxidase 4 and solute carrier family 7 member 11 expression were upregulated, reactive oxygen species release decreased, malondialdehyde levels decreased, and superoxide dismutase activity and the reduced glutathione/oxidized glutathione ratio increased. These results indicate that cytidine/uridine monophosphate kinase 2 is a key regulatory gene for ferroptosis in gingival fibroblasts during peri-implantitis, and silencing cytidine/uridine monophosphate kinase 2 can inhibit lipopolysaccharide-induced ferroptosis in human gingival fibroblasts.
