目的 观测乳酸通过胆固醇对非小细胞肺癌细胞中Hedgehog(Hh)信号通路活性的影响.方法 本研究用乳酸(0.0 mM、7.5 mM、15.0 mM、20.0 mM)和胆固醇(0 μg/mL、25 μg/mL、50 μg/mL)处理A549、NCI-H1703细胞6、24 h,即刻检测Hh信号通路靶基因、胆固醇代谢合成酶相关基因或蛋白表达水平,并测定细胞内总胆固醇水平;为排除pH值对研究结果的影响,用相同浓度乳酸钠(7.5 mM)处理A549、NCI-H1703细胞24 h,用qPCR法检测胆固醇代谢合成酶相关基因表达水平;通过胆固醇合成酶抑制剂辛伐他汀(0.2 μM)和乳酸(0.0mM、7.5 mM、15.0mM、20.0 mM)同时处理A549细胞24 h,检测Hh信号通路靶基因表达水平;同时用RTCA DPlus法检测增殖及迁移情况.结果 经乳酸、胆固醇分别处理后的A549、NC1-H1703组细胞与对照组细胞比,前者GLI1、PTCH1 mRNA水平上调(P<0.05);经乳酸处理后的A549细胞总胆固醇水平和HMGCR、FDFT1、SQLE mRNA水平均升高(P<0.001),同时HMGCR、FDFT1蛋白水平增高;经乳酸及乳酸钠分别处理后的A549、NC1-H1703细胞HMGCR、FDFT1 mRNA水平升高(P<0.01).用0.2 µM辛伐他汀下调胆固醇水平(P<0.05)后,GLI1、PTCH1 mRNA水平下调(P<0.01);乳酸能够逆转辛伐他汀对GLI1和PTCH1 mRNA水平的抑制作用,对A549细胞增殖(F=3.941,P=0.020)、迁移(F=5.851,P=0.003)能力的抑制作用.结论 乳酸可能通过上调非小细胞肺癌细胞的胆固醇水平,促进Hh信号通路活性,并提高细胞增殖、迁移能力,提示抑制乳酸生成可能会改善辛伐他汀针对非小细胞肺癌的疗效.
Effects of lactic acid via cholesterol on Hedgehog signaling activity in non-small cell lung cancer cells
Objectives To explore the effects of lactic acid via cholesterol on Hedgehog(Hh)signaling pathway activity in non-small cell lung cancer cells.Methods Lactic acid(0.0 mM,7.5 mM,15.0 mM,20.0 mM)and cholesterol(0,25 μg/mL,50 μg/mL)were adopted to treat A549 and NCI-H1703 cells for 6 and 24 hours respectively to detect the expression levels of Hh signaling pathway target genes,genes or proteins relat-ed to cholesterol biosynthesis enzymes,and to measure the total cholesterol level in the cells.In order to ex-clude the effects of pH value on the study results,A549 and NCI-H1703 cells were treated with the same con-centration of sodium lactate(7.5 mM)for 24 h.The expression levels of genes related to cholesterol biosynthesis enzymes were detected by qPCR method.A549 cells were treated with a cholesterol synthetase inhibitor simvas-tatin(0.2 μM)and lactic acid(0.0 mM,7.5 mM,15.0 mM,20.0 mM)for 24 h to detect the expression level of Hh signaling pathway target genes.Besides,RTCA DPlus method was used to detect proliferation and migration.Results The mRNA levels of GLI1 and PTCH1 in A549 and NCl-H1703 cells treated with lactic acid and cho-lesterol were up-regulated compared with those in control group(P<0.05).After lactic acid treatment,the total cholesterol level and mRNA levels of HMGCR,FDFT1 and SQLE in A549 cells were increased(P<0.001).The protein levels of HMGCR and FDFT1 were increased as well.The mRNA levels of HMGCR and FDFT1 were in-creased in A549 and NC1-H1703 cells treated with lactic acid and sodium lactate respectively(P<0.01).The mRNA levels of GLI1 and PTCH1 were down-regulated by 0.2 μM simvastatin(P<0.05)after cholesterol level was down-regulated(P<0.01).Lactic acid could reverse the inhibitory effects of simvastatin on GLI1 and PTCH1 mRNA levels,while inhibit the proliferation(F=3.941,P=0.020)and migration(F=5.851,P=0.003)of A549 cells.Conclusions Lactic acid may up-regulate the cholesterol level of NSCLC cells to promote the activity of Hh signaling pathway,and enhance cell proliferation and migration ability,suggesting that inhibiting lactic ac-id may improve the efficacy of simvastatin in NSCLC.
