车前子提取物抑制扑热息痛诱导小鼠肝损伤的作用研究

【目的】研究车前子提取物干预扑热息痛(Acetaminophen,APAP)引起小鼠肝损伤的作用,并探究其潜在作用机制。【方法】运用半仿生酶法提取车前子活性成分,采用液相色谱-质谱联用(LC-MS)检测其主要成分。体内研究车前子提取物对APAP肝损伤的保护作用,将60只雌性昆明小白鼠随机分为正常对照组(NC)、APAP肝损伤模型组(LD)、车前子对照组(PA)以及APAP干预的车前子提取物高、中、低剂量组(HPA+LC、MPA+LD、LPA+LD)。其中NC组和LD组小鼠灌胃生理盐水、PA组小鼠灌胃200μg/mL车前子提取物,HPA+LD,MPA+LD和LPA+LD组小鼠分别灌胃车前子提取物200,100,50μg/mL,每天2次,连续6 d;末次给药12 h后,采血并分离肝脏,检测血清谷丙转氨酶(ALT)和谷草转氨酶(AST)活性,评价肝脏损伤程度;检测肝脏中超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性及谷胱甘肽(GSH)、过氧化氢(H_2O_2)和丙二醛(MDA)含量,评价肝脏的氧化应激程度;检测CYP2E1 mRNA和蛋白表达,并通过细胞色素P450酶2E1(Cytochrome 2E1,CYP2E1)法体外筛选车前子抗APAP肝损伤可能的有效成分。【结果】LC-MS检测发现,车前子提取物有37种主要成分;血清生化指标检测发现,不同剂量的车前子提取物明显减少APAP诱导的氧化产物,增强抗氧化防御能力,减轻肝脏损伤且呈剂量依赖性;车前子提取物显著降低CYP2E1 mRNA和蛋白表达,说明车前子抑制CYP2E1的活性;车前子提取物中抗APAP肝损伤的有效成分为车前草苷D、车前草苷E、高车前素和高车前苷。【结论】车前子提取物的有效成分为车前草苷D、车前草苷E、高车前素和高车前苷。车前子提取物对APAP诱导的肝损伤具有保护作用,其潜在作用机制可能与抑制肝脏CYP2E1的表达和活性有关。

Effect of DNA methylation of miR-30a-5p promoter region on hepatic injury induced by homocysteine

AIM: To explore the role of DNA methylation of microRNA-30a-5p(miR-30a-5p) promoter region in hepatic injury. METHODS: Four-week-old normal mice and cystathionine β-synthase (CBS) single gene knockout mice were used and divided into normal (CBS^+/+, n=12) group and single gene knockout (CBS^+/-, n=12) group, and the mice were fed with high methionine diet for 8 weeks. HL-7702 hepatic cells were routinely cultured in vitro and divided into control group, homocysteine (Hcy) group and Hcy+5-azacytidne (AZC) group. Serum Hcy, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels were measured by automatic biochemical analyzer. The levels of ALT and AST in the cells culture medium were determined by the microplate method. Hepatic injury in the mice were observed with HE staining. Cell viability staining was used to measure the viability of hepatocytes. RT-qPCR was used to detect the expression of miR-30a-5p in the liver tissues and hepatocytes. The correlation between the expression of miR-30a-5p and serum ALT and AST levels was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis. DNA methylation level of miR-30a-5p promoter region in the liver tissues and hepatocytes was detected by nested landing methylation-specific PCR (nMS-PCR). RESULTS: Compared with the CBS^+/+ mice, the serum levels of Hcy, ALT and AST in the CBS^+/- mice were significantly increased (P < 0.05). HE staining showed the hepatocyte swelling and nuclear fragmentation and dissolution. The expression level of miR-30a-5p in the liver tissues was decreased (P < 0.01). Besides, the expression level of miR-30a-5p in the mice was negatively correlated with serum ALT and AST levels (r²=0.4557, P=0.0003, r²=0.4626, P=0.0003), and the DNA methylation of miR-30a-5p promoter region was increased (P < 0.01). In the HL-7702 cells, compared with control group,the ALT and AST levels were increased in Hcy group (P < 0.05, P < 0.01), and the cell viability was remarkablely decreased. DNA methylation of miR-30a-5p promoter region was increased (P < 0.01), which decreased after treated the cells with AZC (P < 0.05), while the expression level of miR-30a-5p in the cells was increased (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Hypermethylation of miR-30a-5p promoter region may play an important role in hepatic injury.     

microRNA-124-3p调控H1N1亚型猪流感病毒致小鼠肺损伤的研究

为研究microRNA-124-3p（miR-124-3p）对H1N1亚型猪流感病毒（swine influenza virus，SIV）感染小鼠所致肺损伤的调控作用，本试验构建miR-124-3p腺病毒表达载体，通过小鼠尾部静脉注射法构建miR-124-3p差异表达小鼠模型，试验分3组：过表达组、抑制组和对照组。48 h后，各组小鼠鼻腔接种H1N1亚型SIV，每只10⁵ EID₅₀（50 μL）。连续观察14 d，计算小鼠平均体重变化率、观察病理切片并测定相关炎症因子IL-1β、TNF-α和IL-6 mRNA相对表达量。结果显示，已成功将pre-miR序列及其sponge序列插入腺病毒的穿梭质粒，并将其共转染293A细胞。实时荧光定量PCR检测证实，与对照组相比，过表达组和抑制组小鼠黑色素瘤细胞miR-124-3p表达水平分别极显著升高（P<0.01）和显著降低（P<0.05），表明成功构建腺病毒表达载体。过表达组、抑制组和对照组小鼠体重变化率分别为－5.5%、－12.4%和－8.6%。抑制组和对照组均可见肺泡壁增厚，其间有多量淋巴细胞浸润，部分肺泡内出现纤维蛋白渗出，且抑制组病理变化更为严重，肺泡中还有大量的红细胞浸润；而过表达组仅有少量的淋巴细胞浸润，肺脏组织较正常。与对照组相比，过表达组检测的炎症因子IL-1β、TNF-α和IL-6 mRNA表达水平均显著降低（P<0.05）；抑制组炎症相关炎症因子mRNA表达水平均显著升高（P<0.05）。本试验结果表明，miR-124-3p对H1N1亚型SIV感染小鼠所致的肺脏炎症因子的表达具有抑制作用，同时能减轻肺脏病理损伤。
