Abstract:
Objective To study the effect of autophagy regulation on hypoxia/reoxygenation injury(H/RI)in mouse spermatogonia,and to explore the effect of autophagy on ischemia-reperfusion injury(IRI)in mouse testicular tissue.Methods The mouse spermatogonial cell line GC1 spg was used as the research object to construct the H/RI model.Rapamycin(RAPA)and 3-methyladenine(3-MA)were used as autophagy ago-nists and inhibitors.The control group,the model group,the autophagy agonist intervention group(H/RI+autophagy agonist intervention),and the autophagy inhibitor intervention group(H/RI+autophagy inhibitor intervention)were set up.The cells proliferation ability of each group was detected by methyl thiazol tetrazoli-um(MTT)method.The release level of reactive oxygen species(ROS)and apoptosis level of each group were detected by flow cytometry.The expression levels of autophagy-related gene Beclin1 and apoptosis-relat-ed genes Bcl-2 and Bax mRNA in each group were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(qPCR).The expression levels of autophagy-related proteins LC3-Ⅰ,LC3-Ⅱ,Beclin1,p62 and apoptosis-relat-ed proteins Bcl-2,Bax,caspase-3 in each group were detected by Western blot.Results Compared with the control group,the proliferation abiliy,the expression levels of Beclin1 and Bcl-2 mRNA in the model group were significantly decreased(P<0.01),the relative expression levels of p62 and Bcl-2 proteins were significantly decreased(P<0.01).The ROS level,apoptosis rate and the mRNA expression level of Bax were significantly increased(P<0.01),and the protein expresion levels of Beclin1,Bax,caspase-3 and the protein ratio of LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ were significantly increased(P<0.01).Compared with the model group,the cell proliferation a-bility,the expression levels of Beclin1 and Bcl-2 mRNA in the autophagy agonist intervention group were the protein ratio of significantly increased(P<0.01),the protein expression levels of Beclin1 and Bcl-2 and the protein ration of LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ were significantly increased(P<0.01).The ROS level,apoptosis rate and the expression level of Bax mRNA were significantly decreased(P<0.01),and the protein expression levels of p62,Bax,caspase-3 and the protein ratio of LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ were significantly decreased(P<0.01).Com-pared with the model group,the cell proliferation ability,the mRNA expression levels of Beclin1 and Bcl-2 in the autophagy inhibitor intervention group were significantly decreased(P<0.01),the protein expression lev-els of Beclin1 and Bcl-2 protein were significantly decreased(P<0.01).The ROS level,apoptosis rate and the mRNA expression level of Bax were significantly increased(P<0.01),and the protein expression levels of p62,Bax,caspase-3 and the protein ratio of LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰwere significantly iecreased(P<0.01).Conclusion Enhanced au-tophagy can inhibit apoptosis of spermatogonia and repair H/RI in mice,which provides a theoretical basis for the treatment of testicular tissue IRI.
