目的 探讨维生素D通过法尼醇X受体(farnesoid X receptor,FXR)途径对油酸(oleic acid,OA)诱导的肝细胞脂质蓄积改善作用。方法 将HepG2细胞分为三组,对照组不作任何处理,模型组采用OA(0.5 mmol/L)诱导构建HepG2细胞脂质蓄积模型,干预组在给予OA(0.5 mmol/L)的同时给予1,25(OH)2D3(0.05 mmol/L)进行干预;油红O染色观察细胞脂质蓄积;对FXR进行免疫荧光染色并用DAPI荧光染料标记细胞核,观察FXR在细胞核的表达水平;蛋白质免疫印迹法检测FXR、SREBP-1c、SCD-1、FAS、PPARα和CPT-1A蛋白表达水平。结果 与对照组相比,模型组细胞内出现大量脂滴蓄积;予以1,25(OH)2D3干预后脂质蓄积显著改善;进一步的分子机制研究结果显示, 1,25(OH)2D3干预使细胞核中FXR表达显著增加,同时脂肪酸合成关键调控信号分子SREBP-1c、SCD-1和FAS蛋白表达显著降低,而脂肪酸β氧化分解关键调控信号分子PPARα和CPT-1A蛋白表达显著增加。结论 1,25(OH)2D3有可能通过FXR途径改善OA诱导的HepG2细胞脂质蓄积。
Abstract
Objective To explore the effect of vitamin D on oleic acid (OA)-induced lipid accumulation in hepatocytes through the farnesoid X receptor (FXR) pathway. Methods HepG2 cells were divided into three groups. The control group was not treated. The OA group was treated with OA (0.5mmol/L) to induce lipid accumulation in HepG2 cells, and the OA+VD group was treated with OA (0.5mmol/L) and 1,25(OH)2D3 (0.05mmol/L). The lipid accumulation in the cells was observed by Oil Red O staining. FXR expression in the nucleus was observed with the merged images, in which the expression of FXR in the cells was detected with immunofluorescence staining and that in the cell nuclei were labeled with DAPI. The protein expressions of FXR, SREBP-1c, SCD-1, FAS, PPARα, and CPT-1A were assayed by Western blot. Results Compared with the control group, OA treatment resulted in significant intracellular lipid droplet accumulation, and was significantly ameliorated by the simultaneous treatment of 1,25(OH)2D3. The results of mechanistic investigations revealed that 1,25(OH)2D3 treatment significantly enhanced the protein expression of FXR in the nuclei compared to the OA treatment. Meanwhile, 1,25(OH)2D3 treatment also significantly down-regulated the expression of key proteins involved in fatty acid synthesis (SREBP-1c, SCD-1, and FAS) and up-regulated the expression of key proteins involved in β-oxidation of fatty acid (PPARα and CPT-1A). Conclusion 1,25(OH)2D3 has the potential to ameliorate OA-induced lipid accumulation in HepG2 cells via the FXR pathway.
