重组hCGPx腺病毒对人肾小管上皮细胞(HK-2)缺氧再复氧损伤的保护作用

目的:研究重组腺病毒介导的人胞质型谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(hCGPx)转染对人肾小管上皮细胞缺氧再复氧损伤的保护作用。方法:将含hCGPXcDNA的质粒pGEM-T-hCG-Px和重组腺病毒穿梭质粒pACCMV-pLpA重组,构建pACC-MV-hCGPx穿梭质粒后,与包装质粒pJM17共转染293细胞,构建重组腺病毒AdCMV-hCGPx。以重组腺病毒载体AdCMV-hCGPx转染体外培养的人肾小管上皮细胞株HK-2,以转染空载体的HK-2细胞为对照组,检测转染细胞中CGPx的表达水平。将HK-2细胞经缺氧再复氧损伤处理后,分别检测细胞的存活率、凋亡率及死亡率。结果:各转染组细胞中CGPx的表达率显著高于对照组(P<0.01)。经缺氧再复氧损伤处理后,AdCMV-hCGPx转染组细胞的存活率较对照组明显增强,死亡细胞明显减少,细胞凋亡明显受到抑制。结论:重组腺病毒介导的hCGPx转染人肾小管上皮细胞可保护缺氧再复氧引起的损伤。

Protection of human renal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2 cells) from hypoxia-reoxygenation damage by recombinant adenovirus containing hCGPx gene

AIM: To study the protective effect of human renal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2 cells) from hypoxia-reoxygenation damage by transfection of recombinant adenovirus-mediated human cytosolic glutathione peroxidase(hCGPx) gene. METHODS: Recombinant pGEM-T vector containing hCGPx cDNA and pACCMV-pLpA adenovirus shuttle plasmid was constructed.Then the shuttle plasmid pACCMV-hCGPx and pJM17 were co-transfected into 293 cells and recombinant adenovirus AdCMV-hCGPx was obtained. Cultured HK-2 cells were transfected with AdCMV-hCGPx or vacant recombinant adenovirus (control). The expression ratio of transfected hCGPx gene were studied. Cell viability, the percentage of apoptosis and death were evaluated after hypoxia-reoxygenation damage. RESULTS: The expression ratio of hCGPx gene was higher in the AdCMV-hCGPx transfected cells than that in the control group (P<0.01). After hypoxia-reoxygenation damage, the viability of hCGPx gene transfected cells was significantly higher than that of control and the percentage of apoptosis and death of hCGPx transfected cells was significantly lower than that of control. CONCLUSION: The transfection of hCGPx mediated by recombinant adenovirus could protect renal tubular epithelial cells from hypoxia-reoxygenation damage in vitro.
