摘要

目的:探讨在替莫唑胺(temozolomide,TMZ)治疗敏感与耐药的胶质母细胞瘤中转录激活因子3(activating transcription factor 3,ATF3)、14-3-3ζ和beclin-1的表达水平变化及其与TMZ耐药产生的相关意义。方法:采用RT-PCR及免疫组织化学法检测并比较同一患者TMZ治疗前及耐药时胶质母细胞瘤组织内ATF3、14-3-3ζ和beclin-1基因及蛋白质表达水平。取30 μg/mL TMZ培养的U87细胞为实验组,普通溶剂培养的U87细胞为对照组,培养72 h,MTT及annexin V-别藻蓝素(allophycocyanin,APC)单染法分别检测并比较肿瘤细胞的生长抑制率、凋亡率,RT-PCR及蛋白质印迹检测并比较细胞内ATF3、14-3-3ζ和beclin-1基因及蛋白质表达水平。结果:TMZ耐药时胶质母细胞瘤组织中ATF3、14-3-3ζ和beclin-1表达水平均高于TMZ治疗前(P<0.05);TMZ敏感的U87细胞培养72 h肿瘤细胞生长抑制率和凋亡率均增加(P<0.05),细胞内ATF3、14-3-3ζ和beclin-1表达水平均低于对照组(P<0.05);三者呈同向表达。结论:在TMZ用药过程中,胶质母细胞瘤内ATF3激活可能上调14-3-3ζ的表达,进而启动并使自噬增强,导致TMZ耐药产生。

Abstract

Objective: To investigate the changes of the expression of activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3), 14-3-3ζ, and beclin-1 in the treatment of sensitive and drug-resistant glioblastomas with temozolomide (TMZ). And to investigate their correlation with TMZ resistance. Methods: Before TMZ treatment and after TMZ resistance, the gene and protein expression levels of ATF3, 14-3-3ζ, and beclin-1 in glioblastoma tissues of the same patient were detected and compared by RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry. U87 cells cultured with 30 μg/mL TMZ were taken as an experimental group, and U87 cells cultured with common solvent were taken as a control group. After 72 h of culture, the growth inhibition rate and apoptotic rate of tumor cells between the two groups were detected and compared by MTT and annexin V-allophycocyanin (APC) monochrome staining, respectively. After 72 h of culture, the gene and protein expression levels of ATF3, 14-3-3ζ, and beclin-1 between the two groups were detected and compared by RT-PCR and Western blotting. Results: The expression of ATF3, 14-3-3ζ and beclin-1 in glioblastoma tissues with TMZ resistance was higher than that before TMZ treatment (P<0.05). After 72 h of culture, the growth inhibition rate and apoptotic rate of TMZ-sensitive U87 cells were increased (P<0.05); meanwhile, the expression of ATF3, 14-3-3ζ and beclin-1 in TMZ-sensitive U87 cells was lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). All three have the same expression trend. Conclusion: During the TMZ treatment process, the activation of ATF3 in glioblastoma may upregulate the expression of 14-3-3ζ which initiates and enhances the autophagy of tumor cells, leading to TMZ resistance in glioblastoma.
