摘要:

目的:探讨黄芪甲苷Ⅳ(astragaloside Ⅳ,As-Ⅳ)干预低糖介导的肿瘤免疫抑制微环境作用及其分子机制研究。方法:采用MTT实验检测As-Ⅳ在体外低糖微环境下对CD4+T细胞增殖率;采用 ELISA 实验和qPCR实验检测白细胞介素-2(IL-2)、干扰素-γ(IFN-γ )、CD40L 和转化生长因子-β1(TGF-β1)的水平;采用 Western blot 法检测CD4+ T细胞葡萄糖转运蛋白(Glut-1)、糖酵解关键酶[糖激酶(HK)、磷酸果糖激酶1(PFK1)、丙酮酸激酶(PK)]、AKT/mTOR信号和AKT/GSK3β信号通路活性的表达;采用分子对接和加入AKT抑制剂实验进行验证;采用 B16-PKM2-OE 建立低糖肿瘤微环境动物模型进行验证。结果:MTT结果显示,As-Ⅳ能够促进低糖微环境下CD4+T细胞的增殖(P<0.05);ELISA 实验和qPCR实验检测结果显示,As-Ⅳ可以提高肿瘤组织中IL-2、IFN-γ、CD40L水平,降低TGF-β1的水平(P<0.05);Western blot法检测结果显示,As-Ⅳ能够促进 CD4+ T细胞细胞膜表面Glut-1蛋白表达,同时呈浓度依赖性上调糖酵解关键酶表达,激活AKT/mTOR信号和AKT/GSK-3β信号;分子对接技术和加入AKT抑制剂实验结果提示As-Ⅳ激活AKT/mTOR信号和AKT/GSK-3β信号;动物实验结果显示As-Ⅳ通过激活低糖微环境下CD4+T细胞增殖与活化发挥抗肿瘤作用。结论:As-Ⅳ通过激活AKT/Glut信号促进低糖微环境下CD4+T细胞增殖与活化发挥抗肿瘤作用。

Abstract:

AIM: To investigate the effect of Astragaloside Ⅳ (As-Ⅳ) on low-glucose mediated tumor immunosuppression microenvironment and its molecular mechanism. METHODS: MTT assay was used to detect the effect of As-Ⅳ on the proliferation of CD4+T cells in low-glucose microenvironment in vitro. By ELISA experiment and qPCR detection of interleukin 2 (IL-2), interferon - gamma (IFN-γ), CD40L and transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) level; Western blot was used to detect the expression of glucose transporter 1 (Glut-1), key glycolytic enzymes (HK, PFK1 and PK), AKT/mTOR signaling pathway and AKT/GSK3β signaling pathway in CD4+T cells. Molecular docking and AKT inhibitor experiments were used to verify the results. B16-PKM2-OE was used to establish a low-glucose tumor microenvironment animal model for verification. RESULTS: MTT assay showed that As-Ⅳ promoted the proliferation of CD4+T cells in low-glucose microenvironment (P<0.05). The results of ELISA and qPCR experiments showed that As-Ⅳ could increase the levels of IL-2, IFN-γ and CD40L, and reduce the level of TGF-β1 in tumor tissues (P<0.05). Western blot results showed that As-Ⅳ promoted Glut-1 protein expression on the surface of CD4+T cells, up-regulated the expression of glycolysis key enzymes, and activated AKT/mTOR and AKT/GSK-3β signaling in a concentration-dependent manner. Molecular docking and join AKT inhibitors As the experiment results indicate-Ⅳ activated AKT/mTOR signaling and AKT/GSK-3β signal; Animal experiments showed that As-Ⅳ exerted anti-tumor effect by activating the proliferation and activation of CD4+T cells in low-glucose microenvironment. CONCLUSION: As-Ⅳ promote sugar by activation of AKT/Glut signal micro environment of CD4+T cell proliferation and activation play a role of anti-tumor.
