目的探讨C1q/肿瘤坏死因子相关蛋白13(CTRP13)通过单磷酸腺苷激活的蛋白激酶/哺乳动物雷帕霉素靶点复合物(AMPK/mTOR)通路对高糖诱导的大鼠原代肝窦内皮细胞(rLSECs)自噬功能的影响。方法分离、鉴定、培养rLSECs,分为正常对照(NC)组、高糖(HG)组、HG+LV-CTRP13组、HG+慢病毒空载体(LV-Con)组(HG+LV-Con),构建CTRP13慢病毒过表达载体(LV-CTRP13)及慢病毒空载体(LV-Con)并转染r LSECs,分别使用AMPK抑制剂Compound C、mTOR抑制剂Torin1、自噬抑制剂3MA干预,分为HG+LV-Con+Compound C组、HG+LV-CTRP13+Compound C组、HG+LV-Con+Torin1组、HG+LV-CTRP13+Torin1组、HG+LV-Con+3MA、HG+LV-CTRP13+3MA组。透射电子显微镜观察自噬小体,qRT-PCR、Western blot法检测各组CTRP13、自噬相关蛋白Beclin1、人微管相关蛋白轻链3II(LC3II)、人质膜膜泡关联蛋白(PLVAP)及p-AMPK、p-mTOR mRNA和蛋白表达。结果与NC组比较,HG、HG+LV-CTRP13组自噬小体数量降低(P<0.05)。与HG组比较,HG+LV-CTRP13组自噬小体数量升高(P<0.05)。NC、HG+LV-CTRP13组CTRP13 mRNA和蛋白表达高于HG、HG+LV-Con组(P<0.05)。HG+LV-CTRP13组Beclin1、LC3II、p-AMPK、AMPK mRNA表达,Beclin1、LC3II/LC3I蛋白表达高于HG、HG+LV-Con组(P<0.05),PLVAP、p-mTOR、mTOR mRNA表达,PLVAP蛋白表达低于HG、HG+LV-Con组(P<0.05)。与HG+LV-CTRP13比较,HG+LV-CTRP13+Compound C组p-mTOR蛋白表达升高(P<0.05),CTRP13、Beclin1、LC3II/LC3I蛋白表达降低(P<0.05),HG+LV-CTRP13+Torin1组p-AMPK、Beclin1、LC3II/LC3I蛋白表达升高(P<0.05),CTRP13、p-mTOR蛋白表达降低(P<0.05),HG+LV-CTRP13+3MA组p-AMPK、p-mTOR、LC3II/LC3I蛋白表达升高(P<0.05),LC3II/LC3I蛋白表达降低(P<0.05)。结论CTRP13过表达通过激活AMPK/mTOR信号通路对rLSECs自噬功能发挥保护作用,延缓肝窦毛细血管化。

Objective To investigate the effect of Clq/tumor necrosis factor-related protein 13 protein(CTRP13)on the autophagy function of primary rat liver sinusoidal endothelial cells(rLSECs)induced by high glucose through AMP-activated protein kinase/mammalian target of rapamycin complex(AMPK/mTOR)pathway.Methods After isolation,identification and culture,original rat liver sinusoid endothelial cells(rrLSECs)were divided into normal control(NC)group,high glucose(HG)group,HG+LV-CTRP13 group,HG+lentiviral empty vector(LV-Con)group(HG+LV-Con).CTRP13 lentivirus over expression vector(LV-CTRP13)and lentivirus empty vector(LV-Con)were constructed and transfected into rrLSECs.According to the intervention methods of AMPK inhibitor Compound C,mTOR inhibitor Torinl and autophagy inhibitor 3MA,the transfected cell were divided into normal control(NC)group,high glucose(HG)group,HG+LV-CTRP13 group,HG+lentiviral empty vector(LV-Con)group(HG+LV-Con).qRT-PCR and western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression levels of CTRP13,autophagy related protein Beclinl,human microtubule-associated protein light chain 31I(LC31I),human plasma membrane membrane vesicle association proteins(PLVAP)and p-AMPK and p-MTOR in rat rLSECs of each group.Results Compared with NC group,the number of autophagosome was decreased in HG and HG+LV-CTRP13 group(P<0.05).Compared with HG group,the number of autophagosome bodies was increased in HG+LV-CTRP13 group(P<0.05).The CTRP13 mRNA and protein expression was higher in NC and HG+LV-CTRP13 groups than in HG and HG+LV-Con groups(P<0.05).In HG+LC-CTRP13 group,Beclinl,LC3II,p-AMPK,and AMPK mRNA,Beclinl,LC3II/LC3I protein expression were higher than HG and HG+LV-Con group(P<0.05),PLVAP,p-mTOR,mTOR mRNA,and PLVAP protein expression were lower than HG and HG+LV-Con group(P<0.05).Comparison with HG+LV-CTRP13,p-mTOR protein expression in HG+LV-CTRP13+Compound C group increased(P<0.05),while expressions of CTRP13,Beclinl and LC3II/LC3I protein decreased(P<0.05);the protein expressions of p-AMPK,Beclinl and LC3II/LC3I were increased in HG+LV+CTRP13+Torinl group(P<0.05),while CTRP13 and p-mTOR protein expression was decreased(P<0.05);protein expressions of p-AMPK,p-mTOR and LC3II/LC3I were higher in HG+LV-CTRP13+3MA group(P<0.05),while LC3II/LC3I protein expression was lower(P<0.05).Conclusion CTRP13 overexpression activates AMPK/mTOR-autophagy signaling pathway,which may play a protective role in the function of rLSECs anddelay liver sinusoid capillarization.
