目的探讨端粒酶重建皮肤成纤维细胞生物学行为的改变,尤其是细胞迁移能力的变化及相关机制。方法小儿包皮成纤维细胞分离培养,Lipofectamine介导将人端粒酶反转录酶(hTERT)真核表达质粒pGRN145转染培养的成纤维细胞,经潮霉素B筛选得到阳性克隆,扩增培养阳性克隆获取稳定表达hTERT的端粒酶重建成纤维细胞。TRAPEZE Telomerase Detection Kit检测细胞端粒酶活性。免疫组织化学染色法检测细胞波形蛋白和胶原表达以鉴定细胞类型。Boyden小室实验检测细胞迁移能力。RT-PCR和Western blot方法检测迁移相关分子趋化因子受体CXCR4的表达。结果pGRN145导入使细胞端粒酶得以重建,细胞寿命延长到160代以上,并稳定表达Ⅰ型胶原和波形蛋白。同时,在CXCL12刺激下,端粒酶重建皮肤成纤维细胞迁移能力明显增强。CXCR4在RNA水平和蛋白水平均表达增高。结论端粒酶重建皮肤成纤维细胞CXCR4表达上调,导致细胞迁移能力增强,可望在细胞治疗中更好的发挥作用。
Objective To investigate the changes of biological behavior of human dermal fibroblasts reconstituted by telomerase, especially the changes of cell migration and related mechanisms. Methods The human foreskin fibroblasts were isolated and cultured. Lipofectamine mediated transfection of human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) eukaryotic expression plasmid pGRN145 into fibroblasts. The positive clones were screened by hygromycin B and amplified Positive clones obtained telomerase stably expressing hTERT reconstituted fibroblasts. TRAPEZE Telomerase Detection Kit detects telomerase activity. Immunohistochemical staining for the detection of cellular vimentin and collagen expression to identify cell types. Boyden chamber assay detects cell migration ability. RT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the expression of chemokine receptor CXCR4. Results The introduction of pGRN145 could reconstitute the telomerase, prolonging the cell life to over 160 generations and stably expressing type I collagen and vimentin. At the same time, CXCL12 stimulation, telomerase remodeling of skin fibroblasts migration was significantly enhanced. CXCR4 expression in both RNA and protein levels increased. Conclusion The up-regulation of CXCR4 expression by telomerase in skin fibroblasts results in enhanced cell migration and is expected to play a better role in cell therapy.
