To investigate the effects of miRNA-130a-3p on autophagy and apoptosis induced by LPS in myocardial cells and its molecular mechanisms. H9C2 cells were divided into five groups: normal control group, LPS model group, miRNA negative control group miRNA-130a-3p mimics group(overexpression of miRNA-130a-3p) and miRNA-130a-3p mimics + LY294002 group(overexpression of miRNA-130a-3p + PI3K inhibitor). The LPS model group was induced by LPS at a final concentration of 10 μg/ml for 24 h. In the miRNA negative control group and miRNA-130a-3p mimics group, negative contro miRNA or miRNA-130a-3p mimics were transfected into H9C2 cells by lipo3000. After 24 h of culture, LPS was added into the medium for 24 hours. In the miRNA -130A-3P mimics + LY294002 group, miRNA -130A-3P mimics was transfected into H9C2 cells by using lipo3000, and LY294002 at a final concentration of 10 μmol/L was added to the culture medium for 24 h, followed by LPS at a concentration of 10 μg/ml for 24 h. The expression of miRNA-130a-3p mRNA in cells was detected by RT-qPCR. The CCK-8 assay was used to detect the cell viability. The contents of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β were detected by ELISA assay. The contents of SOD and LDH in cell culture medium were detected by colorimetry. Western blot was used to detect the protein expressions of p-PI3K, p-AKT, Bax, Bcl-2, cleaved-caspase-3, LC3 and p62. The results showed that the levels of miRNA-130a-3p mRNA, p-PI3K protein and p-AKT protein in LPS model cells were significantly lower than those in normal control group(P<0.01), and the expressions of p-PI3K, p-AKT protein in miRNA-130a-3p mimics group were increased significantly compared with LPS group(P<0.01,P<0.05). Compared with normal control group, the cell viability was decreased significantly and the contents of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β and LDH were increased significantly(P<0.01), the contents of SOD was decreased significantly in LPS group(P<0.01). The protein expression levels of Bax, cleaved-caspase-3 and p62 were increased significantly, while the expression level of Bcl-2 and LC3II/I ratio were decreased significantly in LPS group(P<0.01). miRNA-130a-3p mimics could increase the cell viability, decrease the contents of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β and LDH(P<0.01,P<0.05), increase the contents of SOD(P<0.05), decrease the expressions of Bax, cleaved caspase-3, p62(P<0.01), promote the expression of Bcl-2(P<0.01) and increase the ratio of LC3II/I(P<0.05). Compared with miRNA-130a-3p mimics group, LY294002 reversed the effects of miRNA-130a-3p mimics on cells. Overexpression miRNA-130a-3p could partly promote autophagy and inhibit cell apoptosis by activating PI3K/AKT signaling pathway to alleviate LPS-induced myocardial injury.
探讨miRNA-130a-3p对脂多糖(LPS)诱导的心肌细胞自噬和凋亡的影响及其分子机制。将H9C2细胞分为五组:正常对照组、LPS模型组、miRNA阴性对照组、miRNA-130a-3p模拟物组(miRNA-130a-3p过表达)和miRNA-130a-3p模拟物+LY294002组(miRNA-130a-3p过表达+PI3K抑制剂)。LPS模型组用终浓度为10μg/ml的LPS诱导24小时。在miRNA阴性对照组和miRNA-130a-3p模拟物组中,通过脂质体3000将阴性对照miRNA或miRNA-130a-3p模拟物转染到H9C2细胞中。培养24小时后,向培养基中加入LPS 24小时。在miRNA -130A-3P模拟物+LY294002组中,用脂质体3000将miRNA -130A-3P模拟物转染到H9C2细胞中,并向培养基中加入终浓度为10μmol/L的LY294002 24小时,随后加入浓度为10μg/ml的LPS 24小时。通过RT-qPCR检测细胞中miRNA-130a-3p mRNA的表达。采用CCK-8法检测细胞活力。通过ELISA法检测TNF-α、IL-6和IL-1β的含量。用比色法检测细胞培养基中SOD和LDH的含量。采用蛋白质免疫印迹法检测p-PI3K、p-AKT、Bax、Bcl-2、裂解的caspase-3、LC3和p62蛋白的表达。结果显示,LPS模型细胞中miRNA-130a-3p mRNA、p-PI3K蛋白和p-AKT蛋白水平显著低于正常对照组(P<0.01),与LPS组相比,miRNA-130a-3p模拟物组中p-PI3K、p-AKT蛋白表达显著增加(P<0.01,P<0.05)。与正常对照组相比,LPS组细胞活力显著降低,TNF-α、IL-6、IL-1β和LDH含量显著增加(P<0.01),SOD含量显著降低(P<0.01)。LPS组中Bax、裂解的caspase-3和p62蛋白表达水平显著增加,而Bcl-2和LC3II/I比值显著降低(P<0.01)。miRNA-130a-3p模拟物可提高细胞活力,降低TNF-α、IL-6、IL-1β和LDH含量(P<0.01,P<0.05),增加SOD含量(P<0.05),降低Bax、裂解的caspase-3、p62表达(P<0.01),促进Bcl-2表达(P<0.01)并增加LC3II/I比值(P<0.05)。与miRNA-130a-3p模拟物组相比,LY294002逆转了miRNA-130a-3p模拟物对细胞的作用。过表达miRNA-130a-3p可通过激活PI3K/AKT信号通路部分促进自噬并抑制细胞凋亡,从而减轻LPS诱导的心肌损伤。
