Objective To investigate the effect of Raf kinase inhibitor protein (RKIP) over-expression on the proliferation of LX-2 human hepatic stellate cells. Methods Recombinant plasmid pcDNA3.1-RKIP was transfected into LX-2 cells. G418 was used to screen and culture stably infected cells. MTT assay and colony formation assay were used to examine the effect of RKIP over-expression on cell proliferation and colony formation, respectively. Western blotting was performed to assess the expressions of RKIP, α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), type 1 collagen (Col1) and matrix metalloproteinase 1(MMP-1) and MMP-2 as well as extracellular signal-regulated kinases/mitogen-activated protein kinase (ERK/MAPK) signaling pathway-related proteins. Results Compared with the control cells, RKIP over-expression significantly inhibited LX-2 cell proliferation and colony formation, and reduced the protein expressions of Col1, α-SMA, MMP-1 and MMP-2. Moreover, RKIP over-expression remarkably inhibited the phosphorylation of ERK/MAPK. Conclusion Over-expressed RKIP inhibits LX-2 cell proliferation and the mechanism is related to the inhibition of ERK/MAPK signaling pathway.
目的 探讨Raf激酶抑制蛋白(RKIP)过表达对LX-2人肝星状细胞增殖的影响。方法 将重组质粒pcDNA3.1-RKIP转染至LX-2细胞。用G418筛选并培养稳定感染的细胞。分别采用MTT法和集落形成试验检测RKIP过表达对细胞增殖和集落形成的影响。进行蛋白质免疫印迹法检测RKIP、α-平滑肌肌动蛋白(α-SMA)、Ⅰ型胶原(Col1)、基质金属蛋白酶1(MMP-1)和MMP-2以及细胞外信号调节激酶/丝裂原活化蛋白激酶(ERK/MAPK)信号通路相关蛋白的表达。结果 与对照细胞相比,RKIP过表达显著抑制LX-2细胞增殖和集落形成,并降低Col1、α-SMA、MMP-1和MMP-2的蛋白表达。此外,RKIP过表达显著抑制ERK/MAPK的磷酸化。结论 RKIP过表达抑制LX-2细胞增殖,其机制与抑制ERK/MAPK信号通路有关。
