摘要:

目的·探究microRNA-30b-5p(miR-30b-5p)在多囊卵巢综合征(polycystic ovary syndrome,PCOS)大鼠中的表达及miR-30b-5p过表达对卵巢颗粒细胞(granulosa cell,GC)自噬的影响。方法·采用脱氢表雄酮(dehydroepiandrosterone,DHEA)建立PCOS大鼠模型,实时荧光定量PCR(real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR,qRT-PCR)和Western blotting检测正常组和PCOS组大鼠卵巢组织中miR-30b-5p和自噬相关蛋白5同源物(autophagy-associated protein 5 homologue,Atg5)的表达。分离并培养原代PCOS大鼠卵巢GC,分为对照组、miR-NC组、miR-30b-5p过表达组、miR-30b-5p过表达+pcDNA3.1-NC组、miR-30b-5p过表达+pcDNA3.1-Atg5组,另取正常组大鼠卵巢GC为空白组;将miR-30b-5p mimic和pcDNA3.1-Atg5及相应的阴性对照转染到细胞中,转染48 h后,qRT-PCR检测各组细胞中miR-30b-5p和Atg5 mRNA表达,验证转染效果。CCK-8及流式细胞仪分别检测细胞活力和凋亡率;免疫荧光染色检测各组细胞微管相关蛋白1轻链3(microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3,LC3)阳性表达;Western blotting检测自噬相关蛋白Atg5、p62、Beclin-1和LC3蛋白表达。结果·PCOS组大鼠卵巢组织中miR-30b-5p表达水平显著低于正常组,Atg5 mRNA和蛋白水平显著高于正常组(均P=0.000)。转染后,与空白组相比,对照组卵巢GC中miR-30b-5p水平、细胞凋亡率、p62蛋白水平显著降低,Atg5 mRNA和蛋白水平、细胞增殖活性、LC3阳性细胞百分比、Beclin-1蛋白水平和LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ比值显著升高(均P=0.000);与对照组相比,miR-30b-5p过表达组卵巢GC中miR-30b-5p水平、细胞凋亡率、p62蛋白水平显著升高,Atg5 mRNA和蛋白水平、细胞增殖活性、LC3阳性细胞百分比、Beclin-1蛋白水平和LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ比值显著降低(均P=0.000)。上调Atg5可明显减弱miR-30b-5p过表达对卵巢GC增殖和自噬的抑制作用(均P=0.000)。结论·MiR-30b-5p在PCOS中呈低表达;过表达miR-30b-5p可抑制PCOS大鼠卵巢GC增殖和自噬,促进细胞凋亡,其作用机制可能与抑制Atg5表达有关。

Abstract:

Objective ·To explore the expression of microRNA-30b-5p (miR-30b-5p) in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) rats and the effect of miR-30b-5p overexpression on ovarian granulosa cell (GC) autophagy. Methods ·Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) was performed to establish a PCOS rat model, and real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) and Western blotting were performed to measure the expression of miR-30b-5p and autophagy-associated protein 5 homologue (Atg5) in the ovarian tissues of the normal group and PCOS group. Primary PCOS rat ovarian GCs were isolated and cultured, and divided into control group, miR-NC group, miR-30b-5p overexpression group, miR-30b-5p overexpression+pcDNA3.1-NC group, and miR-30b-5p overexpression+pcDNA3.1-Atg5 group. In addition, the ovarian GC of the normal group was taken as the blank group. MiR-30b-5p mimic, pcDNA3.1-Atg5 and the corresponding negative control were transfected into the cells, and 48 h after transfection, qRT-PCR was performed to measure the expression of miR-30b-5p and Atg5 mRNA of cells in each group to verify the transfection effect. CCK-8 and flow cytometer were performed to measure cell viability and apoptosis rate, respectively; immunofluorescence staining was performed to measure the positive expression of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3) in each group. Western blotting was performed to measure the protein expression of autophagy-related proteins Atg5, p62, Beclin-1 and LC3. Results ·The expression level ofmiR-30b-5pin the ovarian tissue of the PCOS group was significantly lower than that of the normal group, and the levels of Atg5 mRNA and protein were significantly higher than those of the normal group (all P=0.000). After transfection, compared with the blank group, the miR-30b-5p level, apoptosis rate, and p62 protein level in the ovarian GC of the control group were significantly reduced, the Atg5 mRNA and protein levels, cell proliferation activity, LC3 positive cell percentage, Beclin-1 protein level and LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ ratio were significantly increased (all P=0.000). Compared with the control group, the miR-30b-5p level, apoptosis rate, and p62 protein level in the ovarian GC of the miR-30b-5p overexpression group were significantly increased, and the Atg5 mRNA and protein levels, cell proliferation activity, LC3 positive cell percentage, Beclin-1 protein level and LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ ratio were significantly reduced (all P=0.000). Up-regulation of Atg5 can significantly attenuate the inhibitory effect of miR-30b-5p overexpression on ovarian GC proliferation and autophagy (all P=0.000). Conclusion ·MiR-30b-5p is lowly expressed in PCOS; overexpression of miR-30b-5p can inhibit the proliferation and autophagy of ovarian GC in PCOS rats, and promote cell apoptosis, and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of Atg5 expression.
