摘要: 目的:探讨肝细胞核因子-1b(HNF-1b)在糜烂性毒剂2-氯乙基乙基硫醚(CEES)诱导人源性肺支气管上皮细胞(BEAS-2B)损伤中的作用及其机制。方法:用不同浓度(0、0.4、0.6、0.8、1.0和1.2 mmol/L)的CEES染毒BEAS-2B细胞24 h,使用CCK-8法检测细胞活力,光镜下观察细胞形态,分别采用DCFH-DA和MitoSOX荧光探针检测细胞总活性氧(ROS)和线粒体ROS水平。Western blot检测BEAS-2B细胞中HNF-1b蛋白的表达。再利用慢病毒感染技术构建过表达HNF-1b的BEAS-2B细胞系,用1 mmol/L CESS处理24 h后,分别采用CCK-8法测定细胞活力,Annexin V-FITC/PI双染法检测细胞凋亡率,MitoSOX和DHE荧光探针检测线粒体ROS和细胞总ROS水平,JC-1染色法检测线粒体膜电位。结果:与对照组比较,0.6~1.2 mmol/L CEES染毒后细胞活力均降低(P<0.01);细胞形态发生损伤性改变;0.8~1.2 mmol/L CEES染毒后细胞总ROS和线粒体ROS水平均增加(P<0.01);CEES染毒组细胞HNF-1b蛋白表达水平显著下调(P<0.01)。慢病毒转染后,与对照组正常细胞相比,CEES染毒组HNF-1b过表达细胞的细胞活力显著增加(P<0.01),细胞凋亡率降低(P<0.01),线粒体膜电位的损伤缓解,且线粒体ROS和细胞内总ROS水平显著降低(P<0.01)。结论:糜烂性毒剂CEES能够导致肺支气管上皮细胞中HNF-1b表达降低,过表达HNF-1b能够减轻CEES诱导的细胞损伤和凋亡,抑制线粒体功能障碍,其机制可能与抗氧化有关。上述结果提示HNF-1b可能是糜烂性毒剂导致肺损伤的新靶点,激活HNF-1b可能是糜烂性毒剂毒性靶点治疗的新策略。

Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To investigate the involvement of hepatocyte nuclear factor-1b(HNF-1b) in human lung bronchial epithelial cell injury induced by a blister agent, 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide(CEES).METHODS: The human BEAS-2B cells were treated in culture with various concentrations(0, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0 and 1.2 mmol/L) of CEES for 24 h. The CCK-8 method was used to detect cell viability, and cell morphology was observed under light microscope. The DCFH-DA and MitoSOX fluorescent probes were used to detect total reactive oxygen species(ROS) and mitochondrial ROS levels, respectively. The protein expression of HNF-1b was assessed by Western blot. A BEAS-2B cell line which overexpresses HNF-1b was constructed by lentiviral infection. After exposure to 1 mmol/L CEES for 24 h, cell viability was determined by the CCK-8 method; apoptosis rate was detected by Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining method; mitochondrial ROS and whole-cell ROS levels were measured by MitoSOX and DHE probes, and mitochondrial membrane potential was detected by JC-1 staining. RESULTS: After exposure of BEAS-2B to 0.6-1.2 mmol/L CEES and compared to the controls, cell viability was reduced(P<0.01), cell morphology showed damage, the levels of total ROS and mitochondrial ROS were increased(P<0.01), and HNF-1b protein expression was significantly down-regulated(P<0.01). After exposure of the cells with over-expressed HNF-1b, the cell viability was significantly increased(P<0.01), apoptosis rate was decreased(P<0.01), mitochondrial membrane potential damage was relieved, and the levels of mitochondrial ROS and total whole-cell ROS were significantly decreased(P<0.01). CONCLUSION: Exposure of the regular BEAS-2B cells to CEES reduced the expression of HNF-1b and caused extensive damage. However, overexpression of HNF-1b in the BEAS-2B cells reduced the CEES-induced cellular damage, apoptosis and mitochondrial dysfunction. These results suggest that the protective effect of HNF-1b may mediated by antioxidation, and activation of HNF-1b may be a new strategy for the treatment of blister agent toxicity.
