摘要:

【摘要】目的 观察高蛋氨酸灌胃诱导的高同型半胱氨酸血症(HHCY)大鼠模型中,HHCY对模型大鼠心肌组织Bcl-2、Bax启动子区DNA甲基化的影响。方法 选用22只5周龄健康雄性Wistar大鼠,随机分为对照组和HHCY 组,各11只;对照组给予普通大鼠饲料,HHCY组给予普通饲料加蛋氨酸1 g/(kg·d)灌胃,持续喂养20周后心脏取血,检测血清同型半胱氨酸(Hcy)浓度;提取心肌基因组DNA,甲基化特异性的PCR(MSP)联合巢式PCR检测大鼠心肌组织Bcl-2、Bax基因启动子区甲基化修饰状态的变化。结果20周蛋氨酸1 g/(kg·d)灌胃,可以诱导HHCY(P < 0.01);与对照组比较,HHCY组大鼠心肌组织中Bcl-2启动子区呈高甲基化的改变[(1.28±0.02)vs(1.11±0.01)],Bax启动子区呈低甲基化的改变[(0.80±0.01)vs(0.92±0.01)],差异有统计学意义(t 分别为2.765和2.568,P < 0.01)。结论 HHCY 对心肌组织中Bcl-2、Bax甲基化的影响有差异,提示可能存在更深层次的机制。

Abstract:

[Abstract] Objective  To observe the effects of methionine-induced hyperhomocysteinamia (HHCY) on methylation status of myocardial B cell lymphoma/leukemia-2 (Bcl-2) and Bcl-2 associated X protein (Bax) in rats. Methods  Twenty two healthy five-week-old male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group and HHCY group (n=11 for each group). Rats were given ordinary food in control group. Rats were received ordinary food and methionine [1 g/(kg·d),orally] in HHCY group. Rats were sacrificed and blood samples were taken from heart of rats after 20 weeks. The serum homocysteine (Hcy) was detected with automatic biochemistry analyzer. Methylation-specific PCR and Nested PCR were used to examine methylation status of myocardial Bcl-2 and Bax. Results  The serum homocysteine was significantly higher in HHCY group than that of control group (P < 0.01). The hypermethylation happened in bcl-2 promoter region in HHCY group compared to that of control group (P < 0.05). The demethylation happened in Bax promoter region of HHCY group compared to that of control group (P < 0.01). Conclusion  The effects of HHCY on myocardial Bcl-2 and Bax methylation status are different,suggesting that there may be deeper mechanisms.
