In this study, experimental pathology, flow cytometry (FCM), quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and western blot (WB) were used to evaluate the effects of sodium fluoride (NaF) on hepatocellular cell cycle progression in mice. A total of 240 ICR mice were divided equally into four groups; the experimental groups received 12, 24, or 48 mg/kg NaF intragastrically for 42 days, while the control group received distilled water. Doses of NaF above 12 mg/kg increased the percentage of cells in S phase (S-phase arrest), reduced percentages of cells in G0/G1 or G2/M phase, and activated the ATM-p53-p21 and ATR-Chk1-Cdc25A pathways. Activation of these pathways was characterized by up-regulation of ATM, p53, p21, ATR, and Chk1 mRNA and protein expression, and down-regulation of Cdc25A, cyclin E, cyclin A, CDK2, CDK4, and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) mRNA and protein expression. These results indicate that NaF caused S-phase arrest by activating the ATM-p53-p21 and ATR-Chk1-Cdc25A pathways.
在本研究中,采用实验病理学、流式细胞术(FCM)、定量实时聚合酶链反应(qRT-PCR)和蛋白质免疫印迹法(WB)来评估氟化钠(NaF)对小鼠肝细胞周期进程的影响。总共240只ICR小鼠被平均分为四组;实验组分别接受12、24或48 mg/kg NaF灌胃42天,而对照组接受蒸馏水。12 mg/kg以上剂量的NaF增加了S期细胞百分比(S期阻滞),降低了G0/G1或G2/M期细胞百分比,并激活了ATM-p53-p21和ATR-Chk1-Cdc25A信号通路。这些信号通路的激活表现为ATM、p53、p21、ATR和Chk1 mRNA及蛋白表达上调,以及Cdc25A、细胞周期蛋白E、细胞周期蛋白A、细胞周期蛋白依赖性激酶2(CDK2)、细胞周期蛋白依赖性激酶4(CDK4)和增殖细胞核抗原(PCNA)mRNA及蛋白表达下调。这些结果表明,NaF通过激活ATM-p53-p21和ATR-Chk1-Cdc25A信号通路导致S期阻滞。
