為了探究半滑舌鰨(Cynoglossus semilaevis) miR-200a和miR-200b在免疫應(yīng)答中的作用, 采用PCR方法克隆了半滑舌鰨miR-200家族的miR-200a和miR-200b的前體序列, 長度分別為82和88 bp; 用The mfold Web Server和Clustalx1.83軟件對其前體序列進行了二級結(jié)構(gòu)和同源性分析, miR-200a和miR-200b都具有典型的頸環(huán)結(jié)構(gòu), 與其他物種具有較高的同源性。qRT-PCR分析結(jié)果顯示, miR-200a和miR-200b在健康半滑舌鰨13種組織(肝臟、腸、脾臟、頭腎、后腎、鰓、血液、腦、皮膚、肌肉、胃、心臟和卵巢)中均有表達, miR-200a在頭腎中表達量最高, 在血液中表達量最低, miR-200b在肝臟中表達量最高, 在肌肉中表達量最低; miR-200a和miR-200b在鰻弧菌(Vibrio anguillarum)感染半滑舌鰨后不同時間點的4種免疫相關(guān)組織(肝臟、腸、脾臟和頭腎)中的表達呈現(xiàn)出先上調(diào)后下降的規(guī)律, 但表達達到峰值的時間點有所不同。miR-200a在肝臟和脾中的表達峰值出現(xiàn)在鰻弧菌感染后6h, 在腸和頭腎中則是鰻弧菌感染后12h, miR-200b在腸、脾和頭腎中均在鰻弧菌感染后12h達到表達高峰; miR-200a和miR-200b在脂多糖(LPS)、肽聚糖(PGN)、葡聚糖(WGP)、聚肌胞苷酸(poly I:C) 4種病原模擬物刺激后的半滑舌鰨肝臟細胞系中呈現(xiàn)出上調(diào)表達趨勢, 其中Poly I:C刺激半滑舌鰨肝臟細胞系后miR-200a上調(diào)表達趨勢明顯, 6h的表達量為0h的9倍, 在WGP刺激半滑舌鰨肝臟細胞后miR-200b上調(diào)表達趨勢明顯, 2h的表達量為0的9倍。研究結(jié)果為揭示miRNA在半滑舌鰨免疫應(yīng)答中的作用提供了科學(xué)依據(jù)。

半滑舌鰨; miR-200a; miR-200b; 前體克隆; 熒光實時定量PCR; 免疫應(yīng)答

半滑舌鰨(Cynoglossus semilaevis)屬于鰈形目、舌鰨科、舌鰨屬, 是我國重要的經(jīng)濟魚類[1], 但其養(yǎng)殖業(yè)受到各種病原菌的嚴重威脅。從分子層面揭示半滑舌鰨的免疫調(diào)控機制, 將為健康養(yǎng)殖提供新思路。

microRNA(miRNA)是一類非編碼的、長度約18—25 nt的內(nèi)源性單鏈型小RNA分子[2,3], 在動植物、病毒等多種有機體的生物學(xué)過程中發(fā)揮著重要作用, 如個體發(fā)育[4,5]、細胞增殖或凋亡[6,7]、細胞分化[8,9]、免疫應(yīng)答[10]和腫瘤發(fā)生[11,12]等。為了尋找半滑舌鰨免疫相關(guān)的miRNA, 本課題組進行了半滑舌鰨病原刺激前后免疫組織miRNA的高通量測序[13]和miRNA芯片研究[14], 獲得了包括miR-200a和miR-200b在內(nèi)的99個表達差異顯著的miRNA。miR-200a和miR-200b同屬于miR-200家族, 其成員還包括miR-200c、miR-141和miR-429[15,16]。miR-200家族通過作用于兩個重要的細胞轉(zhuǎn)錄抑制因子ZEB1 (Zinc finger E-box-binding homeobox 1)和ZEB2 (Zinc finger E-box-binding homeobox 2), 調(diào)節(jié)上皮間質(zhì)的轉(zhuǎn)化過程, 從而抑制腫瘤的發(fā)生和侵襲。在哺乳動物中miR-200家族在鼻咽癌[17]、肝癌[18]、腎透明細胞癌[19]、腦膜瘤[20]等多種腫瘤中差異表達。目前關(guān)于miR-200a和miR-200b的研究主要集中在與人類腫瘤相關(guān)基因的相互調(diào)控上, 而其在魚類免疫調(diào)節(jié)機制中如何發(fā)揮作用未見報道。

本研究旨在獲得半滑舌鰨miR-200a及miR-200b的前體序列、探究其組織表達特征及響應(yīng)鰻弧菌感染和病原模擬物刺激后在免疫組織及體外培養(yǎng)肝臟細胞的時空表達規(guī)律, 為揭示miRNA在半滑舌鰨免疫應(yīng)答中的作用提供科學(xué)依據(jù)。

鰻弧菌感染半滑舌鰨后miR-200a和miR-200b在四種免疫組織中的相對表達鰻弧菌感染半滑舌鰨后miR-200a在肝臟、腸、脾臟和頭腎4種組織中都呈現(xiàn)先上升后下降的表達趨勢(圖 3):其中在肝臟和脾中的表達峰值出現(xiàn)在鰻弧菌感染后6h, 分別為是0表達量的6.30倍和9.80倍, 隨后表達量逐步下降, 感染后48h肝臟的表達量降為0的1/3, 在脾臟中則是在72h達到表達的最低值; 在腸和頭腎中表達的峰值則是在鰻弧菌感染后12h, 分別為0表達量的6.52倍和7倍, 隨后下調(diào)表達, 至72h,接近0的表達水平。

3 討論

miRNA廣泛存在于不同進化層次的生物體中,其成熟體序列存在種間高度保守的特征, 在生物體胚胎形成、組織器官發(fā)育、細胞分化凋亡、免疫功能調(diào)控及疾病發(fā)生等各種生命活動過程中發(fā)揮著重要作用, 是一種新的免疫調(diào)控因子[25,26]。在哺乳動物方面的研究證據(jù)表明具有侵染能力的小鼠乳腺腫瘤細胞中miR-200家族具有較高的表達[27]; Lee等[28]發(fā)現(xiàn), miR-200家族成員的差異表達出現(xiàn)在了子宮內(nèi)膜癌的組織中; Hiroki等[29]報道了子宮內(nèi)膜腺癌組織中miR-200a表達與癌旁正常組織相比明顯增高。魚類在進化上與哺乳動物差別較大, miRNA在結(jié)構(gòu)上雖然與哺乳動物較為相似, 但在功能上可能還是存在較大差異, 由于魚類miRNA的研究剛剛起步, 在免疫應(yīng)答和疾病產(chǎn)生等領(lǐng)域目前尚缺乏表達和功能相關(guān)的研究積累。

本研究首次克隆了半滑舌鰨miR-200a和miR-200b的前體序列, 比對結(jié)果顯示它們的頸部在不同物種之間具有較高的同源性, 因為此部位經(jīng)過Dicer酶的剪切加工后可以形成miRNA成熟體, 進而與其靶基因結(jié)合, 在轉(zhuǎn)錄后水平發(fā)揮抑制作用。miR-200a和miR-200b廣泛表達于各組織中, 但在不同組織中存在較大差異, 這可能與其在不同組織中的生物學(xué)功能不同有關(guān), 現(xiàn)有研究表明miR-200家族參與了不同的信號通路, miR-200a主要作用于蛋白激酶C/轉(zhuǎn)化生長因子β (Protein Kinase C/Transforming growth facter-β, PKC/Tgf-β)信號通路[30], 而miR-200b主要參與磷酸肌醇3激酶/蛋白激酶B (Phosphatidyl-inositol 3-Kinase/Protein KinaseB, PI3K/AKT)信號通路抑制癌細胞的擴散和遷移[31]。miR-200a和miR-200b表達量最高的兩個組織都是肝臟和頭腎, 肝臟和頭腎都是魚類重要的免疫器官,該結(jié)果表明, miR-200a和miR-200b可能在調(diào)控肝臟和頭腎免疫細胞生成和功能上具有作用。Joseph等[32]研究了miR-122a、miR-21和miR-200b這3個miRNA在肝臟、胰臟和胃中的表達, miR-200b在肝臟中表達量最高。

鰻弧菌感染半滑舌鰨后miR-200a和miR-200b在4種免疫相關(guān)組織中都表現(xiàn)出上調(diào)表達的趨勢,說明miR-200a和miR-200b在病原入侵后做出了免疫應(yīng)答反應(yīng)。Lv等[33]用LPS刺激了仿刺參的體腔細胞, 發(fā)現(xiàn)miR-200a和miR-200b主要通過參與TLR (toll-like receptor)信號通路使體腔細胞發(fā)揮抗菌作用。TLR是迄今為止研究最為透徹的重要模式受體, 能夠選擇性的識別來自細菌、病毒和真菌的刺激[34], 通過接頭蛋白等將細胞外刺激信號傳遞至細胞內(nèi), 從而誘導(dǎo)促炎癥反應(yīng)相關(guān)因子的產(chǎn)生, 上調(diào)協(xié)同刺激因子的表達, 迅速激活天然免疫, 為激活機體適應(yīng)性免疫應(yīng)答、形成免疫記憶提供必要條件[35]。

綜上所述, miR-200a和miR-200b參與了免疫應(yīng)答反應(yīng)。本研究為半滑舌鰨miRNA的免疫相關(guān)性提供了科學(xué)依據(jù), 為后續(xù)半滑舌鰨miRNA的研究奠定了理論基礎(chǔ)。

In this study, we cloned the precursor sequences of miR-200a and miR-200b from C. semilaevis miR-200 family by PCR. The precursor sequences of miR-200a and miR-200b were 82 bp and 88bp in length respectively. We analyzed the secondary structure and homology of the precursor sequence using the mfold Web Server and Clustalx1.83. The results showed that both precursors had typical stem-ring structure and shared highly homology with other species. The qRT-PCR results indicated that miR-200a and miR-200b were expressed in all 13 tissues (liver, intestine, spleen, head kidney, metanephros, gill, blood, brain, skin, muscle, stomach, heart and ovary) of C. semilaevis, and that miR-200a highly expressed in head kidney and lowly in blood, and miR-200b highly expressed in liver and lowly in muscle. Vibro anguillarum infection initially induced and then decreased the expression f miR-200a and miR-200b in 4 immune tissues (liver, intestine, spleen and head kidney) of C. semilaevis with various peak at each time point. miR-200a has the highest level in the liver and spleen at 6h and in intestine and head kidney at 12h respectively after infecttion by V. anguillarum. miR-200b had the highest level in the intestine, spleen and head kidney at 12h after infection by V. anguillarum. miR-200a and miR-200b were expressed up-regulated in liver cell of C. semilaevis (HTLC) when stimulated using pathogen analogs (LPS, PGN, WGP and PolyI:C). miR-200a was obviously up-regulated in HTLC after treatment by PolyI:C and the expression level achieved 9 times at 6h than at 0 h. miR-200b was obviously up-regulated quickly in HTLC after stimulated by WGP, compared with 0 h, the expression level increased 9 times at 2h. In a word, the results of this study would provide the theory basis for the research of immune-related miRNA in C. semilaevis.
