Abstract:
Objective :To investigate the role of N-methyladenosine(m6 A) demethylase ALKBH5 in the prolifera- tion and activation of cardiac fibroblasts( CFs) in rats.
Methods :The CFs taken from SD rats in 1 to 3 days were isolated by differential adhesion and observed under microscope.After cells were adherently grown to appropriate density,the cells were induced by TGF-β1 for modeling.The model cells were divided into the overexpression of ALKBH5 group infected by lentivirus and the negative control group for 24-48 hours. RT-qPCR was used to detect mRNA expression of ALKBH5,α-smooth muscle actin( α-SMA) ,type I collagen ( Collagen Ⅰ ) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) .The expression of ALKBH5、α-SMA、Collagen Ⅰ and PCNA were assayed by West- ern blot.The cell proliferation activity was tested by CCK-8 assay and EdU.
Results :Compared with the control group,the protein and mRNA of ALKBH5 were reduced in the model group active by TGF-β1.Meanwhile,the bi- omarkers of activation,such as PCNA,α-SMA and Collagen Ⅰ , increased significantly.Besides,the protein and mRNA of PCNA、α-SMA and Collagen Ⅰ were lower in overexpression of ALKBH5 group than those of the negative control group.CCK-8 assay and EdU suggested that the proliferation viability of CFs was reduced evidently in over- expression of ALKBH5 group,compared with the negative control group.
Conclusion :Overexpression of ALKBH5 can inhibit the proliferation of CFs,suggesting that ALKBH5 may be a key regulatory point in the development of myocardial fibrosis.
