摘要: 目的 探讨外源性硫化氢(hydrogen sulfide, H2S)对肝癌细胞系HepG2细胞自噬的影响及其机制.方法 应用外源性H2S供体——硫氢化钠(sodium hydrosulfide, NaHS)处理HepG2细胞,采用Western blotting方法检测自噬相关蛋白微管相关蛋白轻链3-Ⅱ (microtubule-associated light chain 3-Ⅱ, LC3-Ⅱ)表达变化,Real-time PCR方法检测自噬相关基因beclin1和atg5的mRNA表达浓度,免疫荧光方法观察HepG2细胞自噬颗粒变化、凋亡相关蛋白M30及凋亡小体变化,AnnexinV/PI双标记流式细胞术检测细胞凋亡情况.结果 瞬时转染绿色荧光蛋白(green fluorescent protein, GFP)-LC3质粒后,发现NaHS处理组HepG2细胞内GFP-LC3Ⅱ绿色荧光斑点明显增加,M30阳性细胞率[(8.37±1.03)%],与对照组[(2.14±0.69)%]比较差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);同时,高倍镜下观察结果显示,NaHS处理后细胞核异染色质明显增加,凋亡小体形成.AnnexinV-FITC/PI双染结果显示NaHS处理组细胞凋亡率高于对照组[(16.32±0.28)%vs(0.67±0.09)%], 差异有统计学意义(P<0.05).Real-time PCR显示NaHS可增加HepG2细胞beclin1和atg5 mRNA表达水平,LC3-Ⅱ表达明显增加.且自噬特异性抑制剂3-甲基腺嘌呤 (3-methyladenine, 3-MA)可降低NaHS所致的beclin1和atg5的mRNA表达.结论 外源性硫化氢能够上调自噬相关基因beclin1和atg5表达,进而促进HepG2细胞发生自噬,并诱导细胞凋亡.

Abstract: Objective To investigate the effects of exogenous hydrogen sulfide (H2S) on the autophagy of HepG2 cells and its underlying mechanism.Methods HepG2 cells were administrated by sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS), a donor of H2S, for 24h, the expression of autophagy-related protein LC3-Ⅱ was detected via Western blotting; The mRNA level of autophagy related gene beclin1 and atg5 were detected via RT-PCR. The autophagy particles and apoptosis were observed using immunofluorescence. AnnexinV/PI flow cytometry were performed to assess the effect of NaHS on cell apoptosis. Results NaHS enhanced the autophagy-related protein (LC3-Ⅱ) expression and beclin1 mRNA, atg5 mRNA and autophagosome formation compared with control. 3-MA could inhibit NaHS-induced autophagy.Immunofluorescence showed the M30 positive cells were significantly increased compared with the controls.Additionally, both the nuclear heterochromatin and apoptotic bodies were significantly increased. Flowcytometry showed that NaHS increased the apoptosis rate of HepG2 cells. Conclusion The autophagy is induced by exogenous hydrogen sulfide through the autophagy related genes (beclin1 and atg5), and can promote apoptosis in HepG2 cells.
