摘要

探讨缺氧后处理(hypoxic postconditioning, PostC)对缺氧/复氧(hypoxia/reoxygenation, H/R)所致的心肌细胞的损伤以及低氧诱导因子-1α (hypoxia inducible factor-1α , HIF-1α )表达的影响,并分析二者之间可能的关系。利用H9c2心肌细胞株建立缺氧/复氧和缺氧后处理模型,通过测定细胞存活率、细胞培养液中乳酸脱氢酶(lactate dehydrogenase, LDH)的活性及caspase-3活性来反映缺氧/复氧造成的H9c2细胞的损伤,用Western blot检测H9c2细胞内HIF-1α 的蛋白水平,用real time-PCR检测细胞内HIF-1α的mRNA水平。结果显示,缺氧后处理提高了缺氧/复氧H9c2细胞的存活率,降低了LDH活性及caspase-3活性。同时,缺氧后处理增加了H9c2细胞内HIF-1α的蛋白水平。预先利用HIF-1α脯氨酸羟化酶抑制剂DMOG上调HIF-1α的蛋白水平后,由缺氧/复氧导致的H9c2细胞的损伤明显减轻,其效应与缺氧后处理完全一致。对H9c2细胞内HIF-1α蛋白水平与细胞存活率进行相关性分析,结果显示二者呈显著正相关(r=0.743, P<0.01);而运用siRNA方法抑制细胞内HIF-1α基因表达后,显著削弱了缺氧后处理减轻缺氧/复氧细胞损伤的效应。以上结果提示,HIF-1α表达上调是缺氧后处理减轻细胞缺氧/复氧损伤的机制之一。

Abstract

This study was to explore the effects of hypoxic postconditioning (PostC) on heart-derived H9c2 cells injury induced by hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) and the expression of hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), and to analyze the relationship between them. Cultured H9c2 cardiac muscle cells were used to encounter 3 h hypoxia and 2 h reoxygenation to simulate ischemia and reperfusion, or underwent 3 cycles of 5 min reoxygenation and 5 min hypoxia preceding the long reoxygenation to simulate ischemic postconditioning. Cell viability, lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) activity, and caspase-3 activity were detected respectively to image the cell injury induced by H/R. The level of HIF-1α mRNA was measured by real time-PCR. Western blot was used to determine HIF-1α protein level. The results showed that postconditioning significantly increased H9c2 cell viability, reduced the activity of LDH and caspase-3. Simultaneously, postconditioning up-regulated HIF-1α protein level. Moreover, after DMOG, an inhibitor of proline hydroxylase (PHD) which is targeted to HIF-1αdegradation, was used to stabilize HIF-1α protein level, the reduction of H9c2 cells injury was comparable to that by postconditioning. There was a significant linear positive relationship between HIF-1α protein level and cell viability(r=0.743, P<0.01). After being infected with siRNA to silence HIF-1α gene, the cardioprotective effects of postconditioning was significantly weakened. These data suggested that up-regulation of HIF-1α induced by postconditioning play an important role in the cardioprotection of postconditioning.
