摘要

本研究旨在基于哺乳动物雷帕霉素靶蛋白(mTOR)信号通路探讨猪肠上皮细胞增殖和精氨酸(Arg)转运的调控机制。在含100或350 μmol/L Arg的培养基中添加(10 nmol/L)或不添加(0 nmol/L)雷帕霉素(Rap),培养猪肠上皮细胞(IPEC-J2细胞)3 d后,对细胞活力、细胞周期以及Arg转运、增殖和凋亡相关通路基因和蛋白表达进行检测。结果表明:1)添加Rap极显著降低了G2期和S期细胞数量(P<0.01),而提高Arg浓度有效缓解了Rap对细胞增殖的抑制作用;Rap通过激活磷脂酰肌醇-3-羟激酶(PI3K)-蛋白激酶(Akt)-B细胞淋巴瘤2(Bcl2)信号通路抑制细胞凋亡。2)添加Rap抑制mTOR信号通路后极显著提高了Arg摄取率(P<0.01),极显著提高了100 μmol/L Arg培养下细胞中阳离子氨基酸转运载体2(CAT2)的mRNA和蛋白表达量(P<0.01);进一步试验证明蛋白激酶Cα(PKCα)-细胞外信号调节激酶(Erk)/cFos-CAT2信号通路可能是Rap促进CAT2表达,进而提高Arg摄取的重要通路。综上可知,Rap应激下猪肠上皮细胞增殖被抑制,提高Arg浓度能有效缓解Rap对细胞增殖的抑制作用;Rap通过调控PKCα-Erk/cFos-CAT2信号通路促进猪肠上皮细胞对Arg的摄取,且提高Arg浓度可促进细胞对Arg的摄取。结果提示,mTOR信号通路在调控猪肠上皮细胞Arg利用过程中发挥重要作用。

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the mechanism of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway regulating the proliferation of porcine intestinal epithelial cells and arginine (Arg) transport. Porcine intestinal epithelial cells (IPEC-J2 cells) were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s-high glucose Ham (DMEM-H) medium containing 100 or 350 μmol/L Arg, 0 or 10 nmol/L rapamycin (Rap) for 3 days, and then collected for the determination of cell proliferation, cell cycle, and the expression of related genes and protein of Arg transport, proliferation and apoptosis pathways. The results showed as follows:1) inhibition of mTOR signaling pathway by adding Rap could significantly reduce the cell number of G2-phase and S-phase (P<0.01), while elevating the Arg concentration could alleviate the inhibitory effect of Rap on cell proliferation. Rap reduced the cell apoptosis by activating the phosphatidylinositol-3-hydroxykinase (PI3K)-protein kinase (Akt)-B-cell lymphoma/leukemia-2 (Bcl2) signaling pathway. 2) Inhibition of mTOR signaling pathway by adding Rap could significantly increase the Arg uptake rate (P<0.01), and the mRNA and protein expression levels of cationic amino acid transporter 2 (CAT2) were significantly promoted after added Rap into the medium which containing 100 μmol/L Arg (P<0.01). It is further demonstrated that Rap might promote CAT2 expression through the protein kinase Cα (PKCα)-extracellular signal-regulated kinase (Erk)/cFos-CAT2 signaling pathway, thereby promoting Arg uptake. It is concluded that inhibition of mTOR signaling pathway by Rap can inhibit the proliferation of porcine intestinal epithelial cells, while increasing Arg concentration can effectively alleviate the inhibitory effects of Rap; Rap promotes Arg uptake by regulating PKCα-Erk/cFos-CAT2 signaling pathway in porcine intestinal epithelial cells, and increasing Arg concentration can promote the Arg uptake of cells. The results suggest that mTOR signaling pathway plays an important role in the utilization of Arg in porcine intestinal epithelial cells.
