摘要: 目的  探讨微小RNA-24(miR-24)对人骨肉瘤细胞株U2OS体外增殖与迁移能力的影响及其可能的机制。方法  通过转染miR-24模拟物(miR-24 mimic)建立miR-24过表达的U2OS细胞株,采用实时荧光定量逆转录聚合酶链反应(qRT-PCR)、细胞活力检测方法(CCK-8法)和Transwell检测对照组、阴性对照组和miR-24过表达组3组细胞增殖及迁移能力的变化; Western blotting检测细胞的上皮间质转化(EMT)进程及核转录因子-κB(NF-κB)信号通路的活性。结果  对照组、阴性对照组和miR-24过表达组miR-24的表达水平分别为1.00±0.00、1.03±0.08和2.46±0.29,3组间差异有统计学意义(F=11.026,P=0.012),转染了miR24 mimic后,人骨肉瘤细胞株U2OS中的miR-24表达水平与对照组相比显著升高(t=4.604,P=0.009)。与对照组相比,人骨肉瘤细胞株U2OS过表达miR-24 24 h[(3.56±0.27)%∶(8.63±0.79)%]、48 h[(20.16±1.09)%∶(54.77±5.42)%)]和72 h[(45.47±3.16)%∶(95.52±8.56)%]后细胞增长率均明显降低,差异均有统计学意义(t=3.896,P=0.016;t=4.813,P=0.008;t=7.173,P=0.002)。过表达miR-24 24 h后,对照组、阴性对照组和miR24过表达组细胞相对迁移率分别为(100.00±0.00)%、(99.26±5.85)%和(31.37±2.09)%,3组间差异有统计学意义(F=12.175,P=0.009);与对照组相比,过表达miR-24后细胞迁移率明显降低(t=3.843, P=0.014)。同时过表达miR24上调细胞中上皮细胞标志物上皮细胞钙黏蛋白(E-cadherin,t=3.852,P=0.018)和β-连环素蛋白(β-catenin)的表达(t=3.512,P=0.024),而下调间质细胞标志物神经钙黏蛋白(N-cadherin,t=3.832,P=0.018)和波形蛋白(vimentin)的表达(t=4.058,P=0.012),抑制U2OS的EMT进程。此外,过表达miR24可下调NFκB(p65)(t=4.813,P=0.008)、磷酸化核因子IκB激酶抑制剂α(p-IKK-α)(t=3.764,P=0.013)和磷酸化激活IκB激酶复合物α(p-IκB-α)的表达(t=4.064,P=0.012),抑制NF-κB信号通路的激活。结论  miR-24可抑制人骨肉瘤细胞株U2OS体外增殖与迁移,其作用机制可能与抑制NF-κB信号通路的激活,进而抑制细胞的EMT进程相关。提示miR-24可作为治疗骨肉瘤迁移的一个潜在作用位点。

Abstract: Objective  To investigate the effect of microRNA-24 (miR-24) on cell proliferation and migration in osteosarcoma cell line U2OS and its possible mechanism. Methods  U2OS cell line with miR-24 overexpression was established by transfecting miR-24 mimic, and then cell proliferation and migration in control group, negative control group and miR-24 over expression group were detected with realtime quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRTPCR) assay, cell counting kit8 (CCK8) assay and Transwell assay, respectively. Epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) progression and activation of nuclear factorκB (NF-κB) pathway were detected by Western blotting. ResultsThe expressions of miR24 in the control group, negative control group and miR24 overexpression group were 1.00±0.00, 1.03±0.08 and 2.46±0.29, with significant difference (F=11.026, P=0.012). Compared with the control group, the expression of miR-24 in human osteosarcoma U2OS cell line was significantly increased after transfecting miR24 mimic (t=4.604, P=0.009). After overexpression of miR24 for 24 h, 48 h and 72 h, U2OS cell viabilities were decreased significantly compared with the control group [(3.56±0.27)% vs. (8.63±0.79)%, t=3.896, P=0.016; (20.16±1.09)% vs. (54.77±5.42)%, t=4.813, P=0.008; (45.47±3.16)% vs. (95.52±8.56)%, t=7.173, P=0.002)]. After over expression of miR-24 for 24 h, the cell migration rates in control group, negative control group and miR24 overexpression group were (100.00±0.00)%, (99.26±5.85)% and (31.37±2.09)%, respectively, and there was statistically significant difference among the three groups (F=12.175, P=0.009); and compared with control group, cell migration rate was decreased significantly after overexpression of miR-24 (t=3.843, P=0.004). Meanwhile, overexpression of miR-24 upregulated the expression levels of epithelial cell markers E-cadherin (t=3.852, P=0.018) and β-catenin (t=3.512, P=0.024), while down regulated the expression levels of mesenchymal cell markers N-cadherin (t=3.832, P=0.018) and vimentin (t=4.058, P=0.012), with a suppressed EMT progress. Other than that, miR-24 over expression inhibited the expressions of NF-κB (p65) (t=4.813, P=0.008), phosphorylation inhibitor of nuclear factor kappaB kinase α (p-IKK-α) (t=3.764, P=0.013) and phosphorylation inhibitor of nuclear factor kappa-B kinase complex α (p-IκB-α) (t=4.064, P=0.012), suppressing the activation of NFκB pathway. Conclusion  miR-24 can suppress cell proliferation and migration of osteosarcoma cell line U2OS in vitro, and its mechanism may be related to the suppression of NF-κB activation and EMT progression. It hints that miR-24 may be used as a potential new target for osteosarcoma therapy.
