摘要:
目的 探讨人髓核细胞中miR-153-3p与Nrf2表达与椎间盘退变的相关机制。 方法 以H2O2构建髓核细胞氧化损伤模型,将miR-153-3p inhibitor-NC、si-Nrf2-NC 、miR-153-3p inhibitor、si-Nrf2 按分组转染至髓核细胞,利用RT-qPCR和western blot实验检测转染效率,采用CCK-8法检测细胞活力,流式细胞仪检测细胞内活性氧ROS 水平、线粒体膜电位下降的比值;RT-qPCR检测Nrf2、MMP-3、Col-Ⅱ、PINK1、Parkin、p62、p38 MAPK的表达量,双荧光素酶报告实验测量荧光素酶活性。 结果 (1)经H2O2处理的HNPCs细胞活力下降及线粒体膜电位降低、ROS水平提高、Col-Ⅱ表达减少,MMP-3、P62、p38 MAPK表达均升高,PINK1、Parkin表达均降低(P < 0.05),Nrf2无明显变化(P > 0.05)。(2)抑制经H2O2处理的髓核细胞miR-153-3p表达,其细胞活力及线粒体膜电位提高、ROS水平下降、Col-Ⅱ表达增加, MMP-3、P62、p38 MAPK表达均降低;而PINK1、Parkin及Nrf2表达均升高。(3)抑制经H2O2处理的髓核细胞miR-153-3p表达,同时沉默Nrf2表达,可见细胞活力及线粒体膜电位下降、ROS水平升高、Col-Ⅱ表达减少,且其MMP-3、P62、p38 MAPK表达升高;Nrf2、PINK1、Parkin 表达降低。(4)双荧光素酶活性分析显示miR-153-3p与 Nrf2间存在结合位点和结合关系,关系呈负相关。 结论 抑制miR-153-3p表达可缓解H2O2诱导的髓核细胞退变和纤维化,激活受损髓核细胞自噬、延缓髓核细胞凋亡,这一作用与Nrf2调控PINK1/Parkin途径、p38 MAPK炎性反应通路相关。 -

Abstract:Objective To investigate the correlation mechanism between miR-153-3p and Nrf2 expression in human nucleus pulposus cells and intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). Methods The oxidative damage model of nucleus pulposus cells was duplicated induced by H2O2. MiR-153-3p inhibitor-NC, si-NRF2-NC, miR-153-3p inhibitor, and si-NRF2 were transfected into nucleus pulposus cells according to the grouping require. The transfection efficiency was detected by RT-qPCR and western blot. The cell viability was determined by the CCK-8 assay, when the intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and the ratio of mitochondrial membrane potential decline were measured by flow cytometry, RT-qPCR was used to detect the expression levels of Nrf2, MMP-3, Col II, PINK1, Parkin, P62, and p38 MAPK. And dual luciferase reporter assay was used to measure luciferase activity. Results (1) HNPCs treated with H2O2 showed a decrease in HNPCs cell viability, a reduction in mitochondrial membrane potential, an increase in ROS levels, and a decrease in Col II expression (P < 0.05). And the expression of MMP-3, P62, and p38 MAPK increased, while the expression of PINK1 and Parkin decreased. There was no significant change in Nrf2(P > 0.05). (2) Inhibition of miR-153-3p expression in nucleus pulposus cells treated with H2O2 led to increased cell viability, elevated mitochondrial membrane potential, reduced ROS levels, and enhanced Col-II expression, accompanied by decreased expression of MMP-3, P62, and p38 MAPK, while simultaneously increasing the expression of PINK1, Parkin, and Nrf2. (3) When miR-153-3p expression was inhibited and Nrf2 expression was silenced in nucleus pulposus cells treated with H2O2, a notable decline in cell viability and mitochondrial membrane potential was observed, along with a marked increase in ROS levels. Additionally, Col-II expression decreased, whereas the expression of MMP-3, P62, and p38 MAPK increased. However, the expression of Nrf2, PINK1, and Parkin decreased. (4) Dual-luciferase assay analysis revealed binding sites and a binding relationship between miR-153-3p and Nrf2, indicating a negative correlation between miR-153-3p and Nrf2. Conclusion Inhibition of miR-153-3p expression can alleviate H2O2 induced degeneration and fibrosis of nucleus pulposus cells, activate autophagy of damaged nucleus pulposus cells, and delay apoptosis of nucleus pulposus cells. This effect is related to the PINK1/Parkin pathway and p38 MAPK inflammatory response pathway regulated by Nrf2. -
