Abstract:
Objective To study the effects of ribosomal protein L41 (RPL41) on the proliferation and apoptosis of human retinoblastoma Y79 cells and its underlying mechanisms.Methods Y79 cells were seeded in RPMI 1640 medium containing 10％ fetal bovine serum for passage culture.Then the cells were divided into control group,with cells left untreatment,(40 μmol · L-1,80 μmol · L 1 and 120 μmol · L-1) RPL41 treatment group according to the concentration.Next CellTiter-Glo fluorescence cell viability testing system was used to observe the viability of Y79 cells in all groups,and flow cytometry was applied to measure the cell apoptotic rate in 100 μmol · L 1 RPL41 treatment group,with Hoechst staining for the observation of nuclear morphometry of apoptotic cells,and finally,Western blot was used to determine the expression of activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) of each group.Results Compared with the control group,the viability of Y79 cells in the 40 μmol · L-1 RPL41 treatment group was (97.9 ± 1.5) ％,with no significant difference (P =0.055);and the viability in the 80 μmol · L-1 and 120 μmol · L-1 RPL41 treatment group was (87.6 ± 1.8)％ and (63.9 ± 2.0) ％,respectively,both of which were significantly different from the control group (both P ＜ 0.05),so RPL41 inhibited the viability of Y79 cells,and 100 μmol · L-1 RPL41 promoted the apoptosis of Y79 cells,with the apoptotic rate of (17.33 ± 2.47)％.Compared with normal cells,the apoptotic cells in the 100 μmol · L 1 RPL41 treatment group showed bright color and smaller cell volume by Hoechst staining.Western blot showed that PRL41 significantly decreased the expression of ATF4 protein and the expression of ATF4 protein in the 40 μmol · L 1,80 μmol · L-1 and 120 μmol · L 1 treatment group were 0.76 ± 0.04,0.29 ± 0.04,0.29 ± 0.05,respectively,all of which were significantly different from the control group (all P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion RPL41 can inhibit the proliferation and promote the apoptosis of human retinoblastoma Y79 cell,and its mechanism may be related to the expression of ATF4.
