Protective effect of herba artemisiae scopariae aqueous extract on neonatal parenteral nutrition-associated cholestasis induced by multidrug resistance protein 3 gene mutation
Objective To investigate the protective effect of herba artemisiae scopariae extract on multidrug resistance protein 3(MDR3)gene mutation-induced neonatal parenteral nutrition-associated cholestasis(PNAC)and its possible mechanism.Methods ①Human primary hepatocytes were treated with cell culture in vitro,CRISPR/Cas9 lentivirus infection and MDR3 mutant gene lead-in.The levels of hepatic and biliary biochemical indexes[alanine transaminase(ALT),aspartate transaminase(AST),total bilirubin(TBil),direct bilirubin(DBil),indirect bilirubin(IBil),total bile acid(TBA)]in the supernatant of hepatocytes before and after 16,32,48 hours were compared to determine the time required for fatty acid induction of PNAC hepatocyte model with MDR3 gene mutation.② Human primary hepatocytes were divided into blank control group,MDR3 gene wild type group,MDR3 gene mutation group,and herba artemisiae scopariae extract intervention group according to random number table method.The blank control group was treated with culture medium only,the MDR3 gene wild type group was infected with lentivirus and mixed with wild type MDR3 gene and culture medium,the MDR3 gene mutation group was infected with lentivirus and cultured in culture medium with the mutant genes lead-in of LV-MDR3KI(c.485T>A,c.2793insA,c.1031G>A,c.3347G>A)mutation,while the MDR3 mutant gene was lead-in by lentivirus infection and cultured in culture medium,and then pretreated with 100 g/L herba artemisiae scopariae extract in the herba artemisiae scopariae extract intervention group,then the four groups of hepatocytes were induced with 1%fat emulsion,and the treatment time was the time needed to construct the PNAC hepatocytes model with MDR3 gene mutation.The levels of ALT,AST,TBil,DBil,IBil and TBA in the supernatant of hepatocytes were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).The mRNA expression abundance of adenosine triphosphate binding cassette proteins(ABCB4,ABCB11,ABCC2,ABCC3,ABCC4)encoding MDR3,bile salt export pump(BSEP),multidrug resistance associated protein(MRP)2-4,and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)genes were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR).Results Compared to the blank control group and MDR3 gene wild type group,there was no significant difference in the levels of ALT,AST,TBil,DBil,IBil,TBA in the supernatant of MDR3 gene mutant group before and 16 hours after induction with 1%fat emulsion,however after treated with 1%fat emulsion for 32 hours and 48 hours,the levels of ALT,AST,TBil,DBil,IBil,TBA in the supernatant of MDR3 mutant hepatocytes were significantly increased(P<0.05),consequently the time required for fatty acid induction of PNAC hepatocyte model was 32 hours.At 32 hours after treatment with fat emulsion,the levels of ALT,AST,TBil,DBil,TBA in the supernatant of hepatocytes in the herba artemisiae scopariae extract intervention group were significantly decreased[ALT(ng/L):148.3±2.3 vs.164.9±7.0,AST(ng/L):2767.4±78.8 vs.3239.4±107.1,TBil(μmol/L):7.6±0.2 vs.13.6±0.3,DBil(μmol/L):1.8±0.1 vs.5.7±0.2,TBA(μmol/L):3.4±0.2 vs.6.7±0.1,all P<0.05].The ABCB4,ABCC2,ABCC3,ABCC4 mRNA expression of MDR3,MRP2,MRP3,MRP4 in the blank control group,MDR3 wild type group,MDR3 gene mutation group and the herba artemisiae scopariae extract intervention group had no significant difference.The expression of TNF gene mRNA was highly expressed in MDR3 gene mutation group(2-∆∆Ct:1.258±0.200 vs.1.001±0.052),and was low expressed in the herba artemisiae scopariae extract intervention group(2-∆∆Ct:0.387±0.247 vs.1.258±0.200),and there was a significant difference between the two groups(both P<0.05).Compared to the MDR3 gene mutation group,the ABCB11 gene encoding BSEP mRNA expression in the herba artemisiae scopariae extract intervention group was significantly increased(2-∆∆Ct:2.955±0.479 vs.1.333±0.529,P<0.05).Conclusion The herba artemisiae scopariae extract has a protective effect on PNAC induced by MDR3 gene mutation,which may be related to antagonizing inflammatory reaction,decreasing the expression of TNF mRNA and improving the expression of ABCB11 gene encoding BSEP.
