Abstract

Hypoxia-induced apoptosis and oxidative stress in spermatogenic cells are considered to be important factors leading to male infertility. It was reported that CDX2 expression was downregulated in hypoxia-stimulated spermatogenic cells. However, the effects of CDX2 on hypoxia-induced apoptosis and oxidative stress in spermatogenic cells are still unknown. This study aimed to explore the roles of CDX2 in hypoxia-induced injury of spermatogenic cells, as well as its mechanism of action. Spermatogenic cells were cultured under 1% oxygen for 48 h to established hypoxia damage model. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation was determined using 2',7'-dichlorofluorescein diacetate assay. Apoptosis was assessed using flow cytometry. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to evaluate oxidative stress markers, including malondialdehyde (MDA) content and the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidases (GSH-Px). Protein levels were detected using western blotting. Hypoxia exposure induced increase in ROS generation, apoptosis rate, and oxidative stress in spermatogenic cells. ROS scavenger inhibited hypoxia-induced apoptosis, oxidative stress, and Wnt/β-catenin pathway activation. Hypoxia exposure induced CDX2 downregulation. CDX2 overexpression suppressed hypoxia-induced ROS generation, apoptosis rate, oxidative stress, and Wnt/β-catenin pathway activation. Moreover, CDX2 knockdown restores the inhibitory effects of si-β-catenin or NAC on hypoxia-induced activation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, apoptosis, and oxidative stress. In conclusion, our study suggests that CDX2 overexpression alleviates hypoxia-induced apoptosis and oxidative stress by suppression of ROS-mediated Wnt/β-catenin pathway in spermatogenic cells.

摘要

缺氧诱导的生精细胞凋亡和氧化应激被认为是导致男性不育的重要因素。有报道称,CDX2 在缺氧刺激的生精细胞中表达下调。然而,CDX2 对生精细胞缺氧诱导的凋亡和氧化应激的影响尚不清楚。本研究旨在探讨 CDX2 在生精细胞缺氧损伤中的作用及其作用机制。将生精细胞在 1%氧气下培养 48 小时,建立缺氧损伤模型。使用 2',7'-二氯荧光素二乙酸酯测定法测定活性氧 (ROS) 的产生。通过流式细胞术评估细胞凋亡。酶联免疫吸附试验用于评估氧化应激标志物,包括丙二醛 (MDA) 含量和超氧化物歧化酶 (SOD)、过氧化氢酶 (CAT) 和谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶 (GSH-Px) 的活性。使用 Western blot 检测蛋白水平。缺氧暴露诱导生精细胞中 ROS 生成、凋亡率和氧化应激增加。ROS 清除剂抑制缺氧诱导的凋亡、氧化应激和 Wnt/β-catenin 通路激活。缺氧暴露诱导 CDX2 下调。CDX2 过表达抑制缺氧诱导的 ROS 生成、凋亡率、氧化应激和 Wnt/β-catenin 通路激活。此外,CDX2 敲低恢复了 si-β-catenin 或 NAC 对缺氧诱导的 Wnt/β-catenin 通路激活、凋亡和氧化应激的抑制作用。综上所述,本研究表明,CDX2 过表达通过抑制 ROS 介导的 Wnt/β-catenin 通路减轻缺氧诱导的生精细胞凋亡和氧化应激。
