辛二酰苯胺异羟肟酸通过内质网应激凋亡通路r诱导HepG2细胞凋亡

摘要

目的:探讨辛二酰苯胺异羟肟酸(SAHA)对人肝癌细胞株HepG2增殖与凋亡的影响及其可能的机制.方法:分别给予不同浓度的SAHA处理HepG2细胞48 h,采用实时无标记细胞分析法检测细胞增殖情况;Western blot法检测组蛋白H3K9和H3K27的乙酰化水平,以及葡萄糖调节蛋白78(GRP78)、蛋白激酶R样内质网激酶(PERK)和p-PERK蛋白水平的变化;流式细胞术检测细胞凋亡.结果:与对照组相比,0.1和1μmol/L SAHA处理48 h对HepG2细胞增殖无明显抑制作用,6和12μmol/L SAHA组HepG2细胞增殖率明显下降(P<0.05);Western blot检测发现,与对照组比较,不同浓度的SAHA处理细胞48 h后,acH3K9和acH3K27表达水平明显升高,GRP78蛋白表达显著上调,PERK蛋白表达显著下调,而p-PERK的蛋白水平显著增加(P<0.05);流式细胞术检测发现,随着SAHA浓度的增高,HepG2细胞的凋亡逐渐增加.结论:SAHA可上调HepG2细胞中组蛋白H3K9和H3K27的乙酰化修饰水平,并通过激活内质网应激相关凋亡通路来诱导HepG2细胞发生凋亡.%AIM:To investigate the effect of suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid ( SAHA) on the proliferation and apoptosis of human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG 2 cells and to explore its possible mechanism .METHODS: HepG2 cells were treated with SAHA at different concentrations for 48 h.The proliferation of HepG2 cells was detected by real-time cellular analysis.The protein levels of acetylated histones H3K9 and H3K27, glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), protein kinase R-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase ( PERK ) and p-PERK were determined by Western blot .The cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry .RESULTS:Compared with control group , treatment with SAHA at 0.1μmol/L and 1 μmol/L for 48 h showed no significant inhibitory effect on the proliferation of HepG 2 cells, while SAHA at 6 μmol/L and 12 μmol/L significantly inhibited the proliferation of HepG 2 cells (P<0.05).The results of Western blot showed that the protein levels of acH3K9, acH3K27, GRP78 and p-PERK increased significantly after treated with SAHA at diffe-rent concentrations for 48 h, while the protein level of PERK was decreased significantly (P<0.05).The results of flow cytometry analysis showed that the apoptotic rates of the HepG 2 cells increased with the increase in SAHA concentration . CONCLUSION:SAHA up-regulates the acetylation of H3K9 and H3K27 in the HepG2 cells and induces apoptosis of HepG2 cells by activating the endoplasmic reticulum stress-related apoptosis pathway .
