目的:探究脂肪酸结合蛋白4( FABP4)对人主动脉内皮细胞分泌基质金属蛋白酶2( MMP2)的影响。方法:体外培养的人主动脉内皮细胞分别用转化生长因子-β( TGF-β)及TGF-β加FABP4抑制剂HTS01037处理,检测处理前后内皮标志物CD31、VE-钙黏蛋白( VE-Cad )的mRNA表达,以及FABP4、MMP2的mRNA表达。结果:人主动脉内皮细胞用TGF-β处理后,内皮标志物CD31与VE-Cadherin mRNA表达升高,FABP4与MMP2的mRNA表达也升高(均P<0.05);用TGF-β加 HTS01037处理后,与单用TGF-β处理相比, CD31、VE-Cad及FABP4、MMP2的表达均降低(均P<0.05)。结论:FABP4与TGF-β促进内皮细胞分泌MMP2的病理过程正相关。
Objective:To investigate the roles of fatty acid binding protein 4 ( FABP4 ) in the process of human aortic endothelial cells secreting matrix metalloproteinase-2 ( MMP2 ) .Methods: Human aortic endothelial cells were treated with TGF-βalone and TGF-β+FABP4 inhibitor HTS01037 respectively, and the mRNA level of CD31, VE-Cadherin, FABP4 and MMP2 were detected before and after the treatments.Results:When treated with TGF-βalone,human aortic endothelial cells express higher level of CD31 and VE-cadherin, as well as FABP4 and MMP2(all P 〈0.05).When treated with TGF-βtogether with FABP4 inhibitor HTS01037, the human aortic endothelial cells express lower CD31,VE-Cadherin,FABP4 and MMP2(all P〈0.05).Conclusion:FABP4 has a positive correlation with the process of endothelial cells secreting MMP2 promoted by TGF-β.
