目的研究缺氧诱导因子-1α(HIF—1α)在新生大鼠缺氧缺血性脑损伤(HIBD)早期mRNA和蛋白水平的表达变化及其作用。方法1.实验1:36只7日龄SD大鼠按随机数字表法分为假手术组(Sham组,6只)和模型组(HIBD组,30只),模型组根据HIBD后处死大鼠时间的不同又分为5个亚组(6h、12h、24h、48h、72h,每组各6只)。实时荧光定量PCR(qPCR)、Western blot分别检测HIF-1αmRNA和蛋白表达水平。2.实验2:将45只7日龄SD大鼠按随机数字表法分为3组:Sham组、HIBD组、2-甲氧基雌二醇组(2ME2组),每组各15只。依据实验1选取HIF-1αmRNA及蛋白表达水平最高的时间点处死取脑,免疫荧光检测HIF1α蛋白的分布与表达,HE染色观察脑组织病理形态学变化,干湿重法测定脑组织含水量,原位末端标记法(TUNEL)检测细胞凋亡。结果HIBD早期HIF-1αmRNA和蛋白表达水平均呈先升高后下降趋势,并于HIBD后24h其mRNA表达水平(3.38±0.21)和蛋白表达水平(2.814-0.36)最高。Sham组HIF-1α蛋白主要在细胞质中表达,HIBD组其主要在细胞核中表达。Sham组、HIBD组和2ME2组3组间在HIF-1α染色阳性细胞数、脑组织含水量、细胞凋亡率的比较差异均有统计学意义(均P〈0.05),且2ME2组均显著低于HIBD组(均P〈0.05),脑组织病理形态学改变也较HIBD组轻。结论HIBD后24hHIF-1αmRNA和蛋白表达水平最高,抑制HIF-1α的表达,可减轻缺氧缺血所致的脑损伤,推测HIF-1α在新生大鼠HIBD早期可能起损伤作用。
Objective To study the expression of hypoxia - inducible factor -1α(HIF-1α)) at mRNA and pro- tein levels in the early stage of hypoxic - ischemic brain damage (HIBD) in neonatal rats and its role. Methods ( 1 ) Ex- periment 1 : thirty - six postnatal 7 - day SD rats were divided into Sham group ( n = 6) and model group ( HIBD, n = 30 ) according to the random table method,then the rats in the model group were divided into 5 subgroups according to the time of sacrifice after HIBD(6 h,12 h,24 h,48 h,72 h,n =6). The expression levels of HIF - let mRNA and protein were detected by quantitative Real - time PCR (qPCR) and Western blot, respectively. ( 2 ) Experiment 2 : forty - five postnatal 7 - day SD rats were randomized into 3 groups: Sham group ( n = 15 ), HIBD group ( n = 15 ) and 2 - methoxyestradiol(2ME2) group(n = 15 ). According to the experiment 1, at the time point of the highest expression levels of HIF -1α mRNA and protein, rats were killed and the brains were collected. The location and expression of HIF -1α protein were detected by immunofluorescence, histopathological changes of brain were observed by HE stai- ning, brain water content was measured by dry -wet method, cell apoptosis was detected by nick end labeling(TUNEL) method. Results At the early stage of HIBD, the expression levels of HIF -1α mRNA and protein increased at first and then decreased,and the mRNA expression level (3.38 ±0.21 ) and protein expression level (2.81 ±0.36) were the highest at 24 h after HIBD. In Sham group, HIF -1α protein was mainly expressed in the cytoplasm,while in HIBD group it was mainly expressed in the nucleus. The number of HIF -1α staining positive cells, brain water content and apoptosis rate were significantly different among Sham group, HIBD group and 2ME2 group (all P 〈 0.05 ), and which were significantly lower in 2ME2 group than those in HIBD group ( all P 〈 0.05 ), and the pathological changes were also less serious than those in HIBD group. Conclusions The mRNA and protein levels of HIF -1α are the highest at 24 h after HIBD. Inhibiting the expression of HIF -1α can ameliorate the brain damage of neonatal rats induced by hypoxia - ischemia. Therefore, it is hypothesized that HIF -1α may cause injury in the early stage of HIBD in neonatal rats.
