摘要
目的:寻找醛固酮独立致心肌纤维化(MF)的分子。方法:利用差速贴壁法分离培养胎儿心肌成纤维细胞(FCFs);选择3 4代细胞给予醛固酮(ALD)处理8 h、提取各组总RNA,用基因组芯片检测差异表达基因,利用Westernblot和RT-PCR对部分基因表达产物进行验证。结果:ALD处理后表达水平改变的基因共1 519个,其中上调的714个,下调的805个。选择与MF发生机制关系密切的趋化因子(C-C基元)配体7(CCL7)、基质金属蛋白酶26(MMP-26)及白细胞介素31受体α(IL31RA)等基因进行RT-PCR和Westernblot验证,结果与芯片检测一致。结论:利用基因芯片检测出ALD处理后FCFs多种基因表达发生改变,部分基因可能与MF有关。
AIM: To investigate differently expressed genes associated with cardiac fibrosis induced independently by aldosterone. METHODS: Fetal cardiac fibroblasts (FCFs) were isolated and cultured. Total RNA was extracted 8 hours after aldosterone administration. Then gene chips were used to screen these RNA samples, Some of candidate genes were confirmed by RT-PCR and Western blot. RESULTS: Differently expressed 1519 genes were screened. Up-regulated genes were 714 while downregulated genes were 805. The expression of CCL7, MMP-26 and IL31RA was tested by RT-PCR and western blot, the results is identical with those by gene chips. CONCLUSION: Gene chip can efficiently single out differently expressed genes induced dependently by aldosterone in FCFs. CCL7, MMP-26 and IL31RA may be associated with cardiac fibrosis induced by aldosterone.
