摘要: 目的: 探讨高浓度氟对人牙周膜干细胞(periodontal ligament stem cells, PDLSCs)凋亡的影响。方法: 从新鲜拔除的恒牙牙周膜中分离获得PDLSCs,分别用不同浓度的氟化钠(0~40 ppm F)处理细胞,CCK-8法检测细胞活力,Annexin V-PI染色及JC-1染色后,流式细胞仪分析、检测氟对PDLSCs细胞凋亡及线粒体膜电位的影响。H-E染色细胞爬片观察氟对细胞形态的影响,免疫荧光染色及共聚焦显微镜观察细胞色素C(cyt-c),cleaved-caspase -9、-3的表达。RT-PCR检测caspase-9和-3的mRNA蛋白表达水平。Western印迹法分析丝裂原活化蛋白激酶家族(MAPKs)中ERK、JNK、p36总蛋白及磷酸化蛋白的表达水平。采用SPSS 13.0软件包对数据进行统计学分析。结果: 氟处理能抑制PDLSCs活力(CCK-8分析),诱导细胞凋亡(Annexin V-PI染色),其效应表现为浓度及时间依赖性。氟浓度≥10 ppm时,能明显诱导细胞线粒体膜电位去极化(JC-1染色)。免疫荧光分析显示,氟暴露促进cyt-c从线粒体释放到胞质,促进cleaved-caspase -9及-3 蛋白表达。RT-PCR同样证明,氟暴露上调caspase-9及-3的mRNA表达水平,呈浓度依赖性。Western印迹分析显示,氟能诱导MARK/ERK磷酸化激活,而JNK、p38磷酸化水平无显著变化,ERK特异性阻断剂U0126预处理能部分挽救PDLSCs的凋亡。结论: 高浓度氟通过内源性线粒体凋亡通路诱导PDLSCs细胞凋亡,MARK/ERK磷酸化部分参与其凋亡机制。

Abstract: PURPOSE: To explore the effects of high-concentration fluoride(F) on apoptosis of human periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs). METHODS: PDLSCs were isolated from periodontal ligament tissues of extracted third molars, and treated with different concentrations (0-40 ppm F) of NaF for indicated period of time. CCK-8 assay was performed to detect cell viability. After stained with Annexin V-PI and JC-1, cell apoptosis and mitochondrial membrane potential were analyzed by flow cytometry. Immunofluorescence staining and confocal microscopic assay were used to detect the protein expression level of cyt-c, cleaved-caspase-9 and -3. The mRNA level of caspase -9 and -3 were examined by RT-PCR. The protein expression level of total and phosphate-ERK, JNK and p38 were analyzed by Western blot. SPSS 13.0 software package was used for statistical analysis. RESULTS: Fluoride treatment inhibited cell viability (CCK-8 assay) and induced apoptosis of PDLSCs (Annexin V-PI staining) in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Immunofluorescence assay showed that fluoride with a dose ≥10 ppm significantly induced release of cyt-c from the mitochondria to cytosol, and up-regulation of expression of cleaved-caspase -9 and -3. RT-PCR confirmed that the mRNA level of caspase-9 and -3 increased with the dose of fluoride. Western blot assay confirmed that fluoride induced up-regulation of p-ERK, but not that of p-JNK and p-p38, and specifically blocking ERK pathway with U0126 could partially rescue the fluoride-induced cell apoptosis. CONCLUSIONS: High concentrations of fluoride induces apoptosis of PDLSCs via intrinsic mitochondrial pathway, and phosphation of MAPK/ERK is involved in the F-induce cell apoptosis.
