探讨薯蓣皂苷(dioscin)对尿酸(uric acid,UA)诱导的人肾小管上皮细胞(HK-2)氧化应激损伤的 影响及分子机制。方法将HK-2 细胞分为正常组、模型组(尿酸刺激造模)、条件对照组(尿酸+DMSO)和薯 蓣皂苷组(尿酸+薯蓣皂苷)。通过尿酸诱导HK-2 细胞氧化应激损伤模型;采用CCK-8 法检测细胞活力,流式 细胞技术检测细胞活性氧(ROS)水平,Real-time PCR 法检测糖原合成激酶3(GSK3β)、核转录因子红系2 相 关因子2(Nrf2)和血红素加氧酶1(HO-1)在mRNA 水平的表达,Western Blot 法检测GSK3β、磷酸化糖原合成 激酶3(p-GSK3β)、Nrf2 及HO-1 在蛋白水平的表达。结果经尿酸刺激后,HK-2 细胞的活力明显下降, ROS 水平明显升高(均P<0.001)。经薯蓣皂苷治疗后,HK-2 细胞的活力增加,ROS 水平明显降低(均P< 0.001)。在蛋白及mRNA 水平上,尿酸刺激后Nrf2 和HO-1 的表达均下降,薯蓣皂苷干预后Nrf2 和HO-1 表 达均明显增加(均P<0.001)。在蛋白水平上,模型组细胞p-GSK3β/GSK3β 比值较正常组明显下降,经薯蓣皂 苷干预后p-GSK3β/GSK3β 比值升高(均P<0.001)。结论薯蓣皂苷可能是通过促进GSK3β 的磷酸化,激活 Nrf2/HO-1 通路,从而缓解尿酸诱导的HK-2 细胞氧化应激损伤。

[Abstract]
To investigate the effect of dioscin on uric acid(UA)-induced oxidative stress injury of human renal tubular epithelial cells(HK-2)and its molecular mechanism. Methods HK-2 cells were cultured and divided into four groups: blank group (normal group), model group (uric acid-stimulation modeling), condition control group (UA+DMSO) and dioscin group (UA+dioscin) . Oxidative stress injury model was induced by UA in HK-2 cells. Cells viability was detected by CCK-8. ROS level was detected by flow cytometry. Real-time PCR was used to detect the expressions of glycogen synthase kinase 3β(GSK3β),nuclear factor erythroid 2- related factor 2(Nrf2) and heme oxygenase 1(HO-1) at mRNA level, and Western Blot was used to detect the expressions of phosphorylated glycogen synthesis kinase 3β(p-GSK3β),GSK3β,Nrf2 and HO-1 at protein level. Results After stimulation by UA,HK-2 cells viability was obviously decreased,and ROS level was significantly increased(all P< 0.001) . When treated with dioscin, HK-2 cells viability was obviously increased, and the ROS level of HK-2 cells was significantly decreased (all P<0.001) . The expressions of Nrf2 and HO-1 decreased at the protein and mRNA levels after stimulation with UA. But the expressions of Nrf2 and HO-1 significantly increased after treated with dioscin (all P<0.001) . Compared with the blank group, the p-GSK3β/GSK3β ratio in the model group decreased significantly at the protein level,but the p-GSK3β/GSK3β ratio increased after treated with dioscin (all P<0.001) . Conclusion Dioscin can alleviate UA-induced oxidative stress injury in HK-2 cells. The mechanism might be that dioscin can promote phosphorylation of GSK3β,and activate Nrf2/HO-1 pathway.
