目的从分子水平探讨肌醇5’磷酸酶(SHIP)基因突变对人白血病细胞系K562细胞周期及其相关基因表达的影响。方法应用携带野生型和突变型SHIP及绿色荧光蛋白的慢病毒及空载体慢病毒质粒转染K562细胞,通过流式细胞术检测K562/SHIP细胞转染效率、细胞增殖指数及细胞周期变化;MTT法检测细胞增殖活性改变,实时荧光定量PCR(FQ—PCR)检测SHIPmRNA水平变化,Western blot检测各组K562细胞SHIP、细胞周期蛋白(cyclin)D1、p21^WAF1/CIPI、p27^KIP1蛋白表达水平及Akt磷酸化变化。结果野生型SHIP基因能明显抑制K562细胞增殖,并产生明显的G0/G1期阻滞[G0/G1期细胞分别为(34.2±7.8)%和(0.7±8.3)%,P〈0.01];但SHIP基因点突变并未影响K562细胞增殖及细胞周期改变[G0/G1期细胞分别为(33.4±4.2)%和(36.3±6.7)%,P〉0.05]。Westernblot结果发现转染野生型SHIP基因后K562细胞Akt磷酸化和cyclin D1表达水平明显下降(P〈0.01),p21^WAF1/CIPI、p27^KIP1表达增高,而突变型SHIP基因对Akt磷酸化水平和细胞周期蛋白表达几乎没有影响(P〉0.05)。结论①野生型SHIP基因通过下调K562细胞Akt磷酸化水平,进而抑制其下游cyclinD1表达,上调p21^WAF1/CIPI和p27^KIP1基因表达,导致细胞周期阻滞在G0/G1期,抑制K562细胞增殖;②SHIP基因突变体(TTC→CTC,Phe→Leu)丧失了对K562细胞的增殖抑制作用,提示SHIP基因对K562细胞增殖的负调控作用有赖于其基因结构和功能正常。
Objective To investigate the effect of SHIP gene mutation on the cell cycle and its related gene expression in K562 cells. Methods The recombinated green fluorescent protein (GFP) containing FIV-SHIP gene was transfected into K562 cells. The transfection efficiency and cell cycle of K562/SHIP were assessed by flow cytometry (FCM). The proliferation of K562 cells was detected by MTT assay, the mRNA levels of SHIP by real-time fluorescent relative-quantification reverse transcriptional PCR( FQ- PCR), and the protein levels of SHIP, CycliuD1,p21^WAF1/CIPIandp27^KIP1 by Western blot. Results Wild type SHIP inhibited K562 cell proliferation and caused a G0/G1 arrest [ ( 34.2 ± 7.8 ) % vs (0.7 ± 8.3 ) % ( P 〈 0.01 ) ] ; while the point mutation of SHIP gene did not show such effect. Western blot results showed that the Akt phosphorylation and cyclin DI expression was significantly decreased ( P 〈 0.01 ) , and the expression ofp21^WAF1/CIPIandp27^KIP1increased. Site-directed mutation of SHIP gene SH2 domain (TTC→CTC, Phe→Leu) did not influence the Akt phosphorylation and cyclins ( P〉0.05 ). Conclusion (1)wtSHIP gene can downregulate Akt phosphorylation and result in inhibition of cyclin D1 expression, up-regulating p27KIPI andp21^WAF1/CIPI expression, finally leading to the reduction of K562 cell proliferation, and inducing G0/G1 phase arrest. (2)SHIP gene suppresses the proliferation of K562, being dependent on its intact structure and function.
