目的探讨电压依赖性阴离子通道蛋白2(VDAC2)在铁死亡调控肺纤维化(PF)中的作用及其与微管聚合促进蛋白3(TPPP3)的关系。方法将人非小细胞肺癌A549细胞随机分为对照组(C组)、铁死亡诱导剂Erastin处理组(E组)、转化生长因子β?(TGF-β?)联合Erastin处理组(T+E组)、VDAC2基因沉默联合Erastin处理组(shVDAC2+E组)。采用CCK-8法检测细胞活性,实时荧光定量聚合酶链反应(RT-qPCR)检测VDAC2、TPPP3、E-钙黏蛋白(E-cad)、α-平滑肌肌动蛋白(α-SMA)、谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶4(GPX4)mRNA,比色法检测亚铁离子(Fe2?),免疫荧光技术检测VDAC2、TPPP3蛋白,荧光探针法检测活性氧(ROS),酶联免疫吸附试验检测4-羟基壬烯醛(4-HNE)。采用Pearson相关法分析VDAC2与TPPP3表达的相关性。结果与C组比较,E组、T+E组细胞活性低(P均<0.05),VDAC2、TPPP3mRNA和蛋白表达高(P均<0.05),α-SMAmRNA表达高、E-cadmRNA表达低(P均<0.05),GPX4mRNA表达低(P均<0.05),Fe2+、ROS、4-HNE水平高(P均<0.05)。与E组比较,T+E组上述变化更显著(P均<0.05),而shVDAC2+E组细胞活性高(P均<0.05),VDAC2、TPPP3mRNA和蛋白表达低(P均<0.05),α-SMAmRNA表达低、E-cadmRNA表达高(P均<0.05),GPX4mRNA表达高(P<0.05),Fe2+、ROS、4-HNE水平低(P均<0.05)。Pearson相关性分析显示,VDAC2与TPPP3的mRNA及蛋白表达均呈正相关(r分别为0.980、0.984,P均<0.05)。结论VDAC2在Erastin诱导的铁死亡中表达上调,并可能通过正向调控TPPP3促进铁死亡,进而加剧TGF-β?诱导的A549细胞EMT及纤维化进程;沉默VDAC2可降低TPPP3表达并逆转上述效应。
Abstract:Objective Investigating the regulatory role and mechanism of the mitochondrial transmembrane protein voltage-dependent anion channel 2 (VDAC2) in ferroptosis-mediated pulmonary fibrosis(PF) and its relationship with tubulin polymerization promoting protein 3 (TPPP3). Methods Human A549 cells were randomly divided into control group (group C), ferroptosis inducer Erastin treatment group (group E), transforming growth factor-β? (TGF-β?) combined with Erastin treatment group (group T+E), and VDAC2 gene silencing combined with Erastin treatment group (group shVDAC2+E). Cell viability was assessed using the CCK-8 assay. The mRNA expression levels of VDAC2, TPPP3, E-cadherin (E-cad), α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Ferrous ion (Fe?) levels were measured using a colorimetric assay. Immunofluorescence staining was employed to detect VDAC2 and TPPP3 proteins. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) were measured with a fluorescent probe. 4-Hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The correlation between VDAC2 and TPPP3 expression was analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis. Results Compared with group C, groups E and T+E showed lower cell viability(all P<0.05), higher α-SMA mRNA expression and higher VDAC2 and TPPP3 mRNA and protein expression(all P<0.05), lower E-cad and GPX4 mRNA expression(all P<0.05), and higher levels of Fe?, ROS, and 4-HNE (all P<0.05). Compared with group E, the above changes were more pronounced in the group T+E (all P<0.05). In contrast, the group shVDAC2+E exhibited higher cell viability(all P<0.05), lower VDAC2 and TPPP3 mRNA and protein expression and lower α-SMA mRNA expression(all P<0.05), higher E-cad and GPX4 mRNA expression(all P<0.05), and lower levels of Fe?, ROS, and 4-HNE (all P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis revealed that VDAC2 expression was positively correlated with TPPP3 expression at both the mRNA and protein levels (r=0.980 and 0.984, respectively; both P<0.05). Conclusion VDAC2 is upregulated in Erastin-induced ferroptosis and promotes ferroptosis by positively regulating TPPP3, thereby exacerbating TGF-β?-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and fibrotic progression in A549 cells. Silencing VDAC2 can reverse these effects.
