非酒精性脂肪性肝病细胞模型中胆固醇代谢紊乱机制

Mechanisms of cholesterol metabolism imbalance in a PA-induced non-alcoholic fatty liver disease cell model

  • 摘要: 肝脏胆固醇代谢紊乱在非酒精性脂肪性肝病(NAFLD)的发生发展中具有重要作用。为揭示饱和脂肪酸诱导肝细胞胆固醇稳态失衡的分子机制,采用棕榈酸诱导HepG2细胞,通过油红O染色、试剂盒测定细胞内甘油三酯(TG)和胆固醇(TC)含量评估脂质累积;采用RT-qPCR和Western blot检测与胆固醇稳态相关基因和蛋白表达水平;LC-MS/MS检测细胞胆汁酸和线粒体氧甾醇水平。结果发现,棕榈酸处理后,细胞内脂滴明显累积且TG与TC含量显著升高(P < 0.000 1);胆固醇合成和摄取相关基因表达无明显变化,但ABCG5和LXRα蛋白表达显著下调,表明胆固醇外排减少;负责胆汁酸替代合成的限速酶STARD1CYP7B1基因表达显著增强,线粒体中胆固醇、27-羟基胆固醇(27-OHC)以及细胞中鹅去氧胆酸(CDCA)水平明显升高。本研究结果表明,棕榈酸刺激后可能通过抑制胆固醇外排和促进胆汁酸合成扰乱胆固醇稳态。
    Abstract: Liver cholesterol metabolism disorder plays an important role in the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).In order to reveal the molecular mechanism of cholesterol homeostasis imbalance induced by saturated fatty acids, HepG2 cells were stimulated with palmitic acid (PA).Lipids accumulation was analyzed by Oil Red O staining, intracellular triglyceride and cholesterol quantification.The level of genes and proteins related to cholesterol homeostasis was measured by RT-qPCR and western blotting.Additionally, intracellular bile acids and mitochondrial oxysterols were detected by LC-MS/MS.The results demonstrated that intracellular lipids such as TG and TC were significantly increased in the model with PA stimulation.Although no significant difference was detected in genes related to cholesterol synthesis and uptake, the protein expression of ABCG5 and LXRα were significantly down-regulated, indicating a decrease in cholesterol efflux.Meanwhile, the gene expression of STARD1 and CYP7B1, which are responsible for bile acid alternative synthesis, were markedly enhanced, along with a significant increase of cholesterol and 27-OHC in mitochondria and CDCA in cells.These results suggested that PA overload may disrupt cholesterol homeostasis by inhibiting cholesterol efflux and promoting bile acids synthesis.
