摘要

目的·探讨铁死亡对心脏毒素(cardiotoxin,CTX)诱发肌肉损伤后肌肉再生能力的影响。方法·在15只8周龄C57BL/6J雄性小鼠胫骨前肌(tibialis anterior,TA)上取上、中、下3个点注射CTX,在第0、3、7日分别取5只小鼠的TA做苏木精-伊红染色(hematoxylin-eosin,H-E染色)观察肌肉损伤程度;采用实时荧光定量PCR(quantitative real-time PCR,qPCR)和蛋白质印迹法分别从RNA和蛋白水平检测肌肉再生相关指标及铁死亡相关指标的表达水平。同时,将45只8周龄C57BL/6J雄性小鼠分为生理盐水对照组、铁离子螯合剂去铁胺(deferoxamine,DFO)处理组和铁死亡抑制剂UAMC-3203处理组,每组15只。通过分别提前1周腹腔注射生理盐水或DFO,以及提前1 d腹腔注射UAMC-3203对小鼠进行预处理。随后在小鼠TA部位注射CTX,分别于第0、3、7日取TA组织,利用RNA测序(RNA sequencing,RNA-seq)技术以及生物信息学分析铁死亡抑制剂预处理后对CTX诱导的肌肉损伤后再生能力的影响,通过H-E染色观察及qPCR检测铁死亡抑制剂对肌肉再生相关基因RNA表达水平的影响。结果·H-E染色显示CTX注射后肌肉损伤再生模型构建成功。实验观察到铁死亡相关指标酰基辅酶A合成酶长链家族成员4(acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family member 4,Acsl4)和血红素加氧酶1(heme oxygenase-1,Hmox-1)在RNA和蛋白水平上明显升高,提示肌肉损伤及再生过程中发生了铁死亡。在注射CTX后第3日肌肉组织的损伤情况较为严重,伴随着肌肉再生相关基因成肌分化抗原(myogenic differentiation antigen,Myod)、肌细胞生成素(myogenin,Myog)、固生蛋白(tenascin-c,Tnc)的明显上调,第7日有所恢复。通过对RNA-seq差异基因的京都基因与基因组数据库(Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes,KEGG)通路分析发现,与生理盐水组比较,UAMC-3203处理组中性粒细胞的脱颗粒化,活性氧(reactive oxygen species,ROS)的生成以及吞噬作用中的磷脂等信号通路发生了明显的改变;并且组织蛋白酶S(cathepsin S,Ctss)的表达水平明显升高。更重要的是,注射UAMC-3203和DFO可抑制肌肉再生相关基因的表达。结论·抑制铁死亡在一定程度上减慢了肌肉的再生过程,提示铁死亡的发生可能促进了肌肉的再生。

Abstract

Objective

·To investigate the role of ferroptosis in muscle regeneration after injury induced by cardiotoxin (CTX).

Methods

·CTX was injected into the tibialis anterior (TA) of fifteen 8-week-old male C57BL/6J mice at the upper, middle and lower points. After injection, TA tissue of the mice was collected at 0 d, 3 d and 7 d respectively (n=5) to detect injury by hematoxylin-eosin (H-E) staining. Meanwhile, quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) and Western blotting were used respectively to detect the expression levels of muscle regeneration-related indexes and ferroptosis-related genes from RNA and protein levels, respectively. At the same time, forty-five 8-week-old C57BL/6J male mice were divided into 3 groups before CTX injection: saline control group, iron chelator deferoxamine (DFO) treatment group and ferroptosis inhibitor UAMC-3203 treatment group (n=15). CTX was injected into TA, and muscle tissue was collected at 0 d, 3 d and 7 d respectively. RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) technology and bioinformatics were used to analyze the effect of ferroptosis inhibitor pretreatment on muscle injury and regeneration after CTX injection. H-E staining and qPCR were utilized to analyze the effect of ferroptosis inhibitor on the expression levels of muscle regeneration-related genes.

Results

·The muscle injury and regeneration model was successfully established by CTX injection, as revealed by H-E staining. The increase of ferroptosis-related genes including acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family member 4 (Acsl4) and heme oxygenase-1 (Hmox-1) at both RNA and protein levels was observed, suggesting the occurrence of ferroptosis during muscle injury. There was severe muscle injury at day 3, which was detected by the up-regulation of myogenic differentiation antigen (Myod), myogenin (Myog), and tenascin-c (Tnc), followed by declines at day 7. According to the analysis of Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway of RNA-seq differential genes, it was found that UAMC-3203 treatment group had significant changes in neutrophil degranulation, production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and phospholipids in phagocytosis compared with CTX injection alone. And the expression of cathepsin S (Ctss) was much higher in the UAMC-3203 treatment group. More importantly, the expression of muscle regeneration-related genes were dramatically inhibited by both UAMC-3203 and DFO injection.

Conclusion

·Inhibition of ferroptosis slows down the process of muscle regeneration to a certain degree, suggesting that ferroptosis may play a key role in facilitating muscle regeneration.
