摘要
目的探究连接蛋白43(Connexins43,Cx43)在氧化低密度脂蛋白(oxidized low-density lipoprotein,ox-LDL)诱导小鼠单核巨噬细胞系(RAW264.7细胞)自噬中的作用。方法利用ox-LDL(100μg/mL,24 h)构建RAW264.7自噬及泡沫化模型。实验分为Control组、ox-LDL组、ox-LDL+Gap26组、ox-LDL+Gap19组。qRT-PCR检测各组Cx43、自噬蛋白Beclin-1及LC3B mRNA水平。Western blot检测Cx43、Beclin-1及LC3B蛋白水平。细胞免疫荧光技术检测Cx43、Beclin-1及LC3B在RAW264.7细胞上的定位和表达。结果油红O染色结果显示,ox-LDL干预RAW264.7细胞24 h后,ox-LDL组细胞浆内出现红染脂滴,即细胞发生泡沫化。Western blot、qRT-PCR及免疫荧光结果显示,ox-LDL干预RAW264.7细胞24 h后,ox-LDL组细胞中Cx43的表达水平升高。此外,Western blot、qRT-PCR及免疫荧光结果表明,ox-LDL干预RAW264.7细胞24 h后,与Control组相比,ox-LDL组细胞的Beclin-1、LC3BmRNA及蛋白表达水平降低;与ox-LDL组相比,ox-LDL+Gap26组及ox-LDL+Gap19组的自噬相关蛋白表达水平升高。结论阻断Cx43能促进ox-LDL诱导RAW264.7细胞自噬。
Objective This study aims to explore the role of connexin 43(Cx43)in the autophagy of RAW264.7 cell induced by oxidized low-density lipoprotein(ox-LDL).Methods The ox-LDL(100μg/mL,24 h)was used to establish the model of autophagy and foam cell formation.RAW264.7 mouse mononuclear macrophage lines were randomly divided into control group,ox-LDL group,ox-LDL+Gap26 group and ox-LDL+Gap19 group.The mRNA levels of Cx43,autophagy protein Beclin-1 and LC3B were detected by qRT-PCR.The protein levels of Cx43,Beclin-1 and LC3B were detected by Western blot.The expression and localization of Cx43,Beclin-1 and LC3B were detected by cellular immunofluorescence.Results The results of oil red O staining showed that red lipid droplets appeared in the cell plasma of the ox-LDL group and cells were foamy 24 h after ox-LDL intervention in RAW264.7 cells.By Western blot,qRT-PCR and immunofluorescence 24 h after ox-LDL intervention in RAW264.7 cells,the expression level of Cx43 in the cells of the ox-LDL group was increased,the expression levels of Beclin-1,LC3B mRNA and protein were decreased in the cells of the ox-LDL group compared with the control group,the expression levels of Beclin-1 and LC3B were decreased in the ox-LDL+Gap26 group compared with the ox-LDL group,and the expression levels of autophagy-related proteins in the ox LDL+Gap19 group were increased compared with the ox-LDL group.Conclusion Cx43 blocking can significantly promote RAW264.7 autophagy induced by ox-LDL.
