    Abstract

    Objective:The present study aims to investigate the role of protease - activated receptor 2(PAR2)in the regulation of human endothelial progenitor cell(EPC)function. Methods:EPCs were stimulated with tryptase(a natural agonist of PAR2),SLIGKV- NH2(a synthetic agonist of PAR2)and FSLLRY-NH2(an antagonist of PAR2). Cell proliferation and migration were evaluated by EdU incorporation and Transwell model. Expression of the cytokines and receptors were estimated by real - time quantitative PCR and ELISA. Level of intercellular Ras homolog family member A(RhoA)was assessed by Western blot analysis. And RhoA antagonist Y- 27632 was also applied to determine whether the effects of PAR2 activation can be abolished by RhoA inhibition. Results:The agonists of PAR2 dramatically inhibited EPCs proliferation and migration in a dose - dependent manner(P < 0.05). PAR2 activation markedly suppressed the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor-A,vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2,stromal cell- derived factor -1and C -X -C chemokine receptor type 4(P < 0.05). All these effects can be abolished by the PAR2 antagonist(P < 0.05). PAR2 activation increased the level of RhoA in EPCs,which was also repressed by FSLLRY-NH2(P < 0.05). Y-27632 notably reversed the influence of PAR2 activation on EPCs proliferation and migration(P < 0.05). Conclusion:The activation of PAR2 blunted EPCs proliferation and migration via RhoA signal,hinting a potential role of PAR2 as a novel target for the modulation of endothelial regeneration and vasculogenesis.

  • 蛋白酶激活受体(protease ⁃ activated receptor, PAR)属 G 蛋白偶联受体,包括 4 个亚型。其中, PAR2作为唯一胰酶受体,功能最为特殊,可被胰蛋白酶、类胰蛋白酶等活化,在平滑肌、上皮和内皮等多种结构细胞上均有表达[1]。研究表明,多种血管疾病进展与PAR2的激活有关,如肺动脉高压、动脉粥样硬化、糖尿病血管并发症等,提示 PAR2 在调节内皮完整性和血管稳态方面起重要作用[2-3]。有研究显示,PAR2活化可参与内皮细胞的多种功能,如细胞增殖、血管生成及促炎介质释放等[4-5]。Ras 同源家族成员 A(Ras homolog family member A, RhoA)作为重要的 PAR2 下游信号[6],被证实参与内皮功能调控[7-8]。在研究中发现作为调节内皮完整性和血管稳态的重要来源,内皮祖细胞(endo⁃ thelial progenitor cell,EPC)存在 PAR2 表达,然其是否参与调控 EPC 功能及其相关机制目前仍知之甚少。

  • EPC起源于骨髓,可从外周血单个核细胞中分离提取[9],体内外均具有高增殖和促血管生成潜能。机体受损时,损伤部位释放趋化细胞因子可使 EPC从骨髓动员至外周血,继而迁至受损处分化为成熟内皮细胞,嵌入并修复血管[10]。有证据证实,肺动脉高压患者循环EPC数量显著减少并伴功能障碍,提示EPC可能是血管功能异常的重要原因[11]。近年来在一些血管相关疾病如肺动脉高压[12]、糖尿病血管并发症[13] 和冠心病[14] 中,EPC作为细胞治疗的有力候选成员之一,其功能改善已成为治疗此类疾病的重要策略。

  • EPC表达PAR2,而PAR2激活能否调节EPC功能有待进一步研究。本研究通过体外培养EPC,观察 PAR2 活化对 EPC 增殖、迁移功能的影响及其相关因子、受体的水平变化,阐明RhoA信号在该过程中的重要作用。

  • 2 结果

  • 2.1 类胰蛋白酶、SLIGKV⁃NH2抑制EPC增殖与迁移

  • Tr 是 PAR2 的天然激动剂。免疫印迹结果显示,EPC存在PAR2表达,给予Tr100 pmol/L处理24 h 后,PAR2表达上调(P <0.05),PAR2抑制剂FS可取消此效应(图1A),提示类胰蛋白酶可通过PAR2引起自身反馈性表达增高。细胞增殖、迁移是血管生成的重要事件。本研究结果显示,不同浓度(1、10、 50、100、1 000 pmol/L)Tr处理24 h可导致细胞增殖、迁移功能明显减弱(P <0.05,图1B、C)。AP作为激活 PAR2 的模拟合成肽,亦可剂量依赖性(1、10、 50、100、200 μmol/L)抑制 EPC 增殖与迁移(P <0.05,图1D、E),浓度≥100 μmol/L 时差异具有显著性。据上述结果,后续实验选择 100 pmol/L Tr 和 100 μmol/L AP进行。

  • 2.2 PAR2激活下调EPC增殖、迁移相关细胞因子及受体表达

  • EPC释放的生长、趋化因子及其受体参与缺血组织处细胞的增殖与迁移。实时定量 PCR 结果显示,Tr、SLIGKV⁃NH2下调VEGF⁃A、VEGFR⁃2、SDF⁃1、 CXCR⁃4的mRNA水平(P <0.05,图2A)。ELISA结果亦显示,PAR2激活后EPC上清中VEGF⁃A及SDF⁃1 的蛋白表达量显著下降(P <0.05,图2B)。

  • 2.3 PAR2抑制剂FS取消PAR2活化引起的EPC功能改变

  • 为了探讨PAR2激动剂引起的EPC功能改变是否直接经由PAR2受体实现,本研究选用PAR2抑制剂 FS 以阻断 PAR2 受体功能。200 μmol/L FS 可取消2种激动剂诱导的EPC细胞增殖、迁移功能下调效应(P <0.05,图3)。

  • 2.4 RhoA参与介导PAR2活化引起的EPC增殖、迁移抑制过程

  • 作为 PAR2 下游的重要信号分子,RhoA 参与调节细胞的骨架重塑、黏附运动等功能。免疫印迹结果显示,Tr、AP 处理 EPC 24 h 后,RhoA 表达显著上调(P <0.05),PAR2 抑制剂 FS 可取消此上调效应(图4A)。同时,予以特异性 RhoA 抑制剂 Y⁃27632(图4B,C),PAR2 激动剂引起的 EPC 增殖、迁移抑制被逆转(P <0.05)。

  • 3 讨论

  • 本研究通过分离、培养人外周血来源的EPC,发现选择性激活 PAR2 可经由 RhoA 信号抑制 EPC 增殖、迁移功能。PAR2 激动剂 Tr、PAR2 合成激动剂 AP 可下调增殖、迁移相关细胞因子及受体表达、上调RhoA信号,该效应分别被PAR2及RhoA抑制剂取消,提示PAR2⁃RhoA信号轴可能是EPC参与血管修复、再生的重要机制之一。

  • 1997年,Asahara等[9] 通过免疫磁珠法首次从人外周血单核细胞层分离出EPC,其在心血管系统疾病[14]、呼吸系统疾病[12] 等多种病理生理过程中的重要作用均被证实。研究显示,野百合碱诱导的肺动脉高压大鼠接受骨髓来源的EPC后,右心衰表现明显减轻,存活率也显著提高[12],提示 EPC 是肺动脉高压等血管相关疾病治疗的有效手段。

  • PAR2 参与血管功能调控过程,研究表明动脉粥样硬化斑块中PAR2表达上调[3];PAR2激活可引起内皮屏障破坏、血管通透性增加、炎症介质上调,导致血脑屏障结构与功能紊乱[4],提示内皮细胞调控中PAR2至关重要。然而,PAR2在EPC中的作用尚不清楚。鉴于EPC是内皮细胞的干性前体细胞,本研究通过原代培养EPC以探究PAR2激活对其功能的影响,阐明血管稳态调控的EPC机制及其作为潜在治疗靶标的可能性。

  • 图4 PAR2激活经由RhoA信号抑制EPC增殖与迁移

  • Figure4 PAR2 activation decreased the proliferation and migration of EPC via RhoA

  • EPC增殖作为细胞关键功能,对内皮再生及伤口愈合十分重要。本研究探究了PAR2激活对EPC 增殖的影响,同时选用Tr、AP[15] 进行观察。结果显示两者效应相似,均剂量依赖性抑制 EPC 增殖功能,效应均被PAR2抑制剂取消,表明EPC增殖抑制确实通过活化 PAR2 实现。同时,EPC 迁移作为机体受损后细胞归巢至损伤部位的重要事件,对血管的精准修复颇为关键。本研究观察了PAR2活化对 EPC 迁移的影响,发现激活 PAR2 可显著抑制 EPC 迁移功能,抑制 PAR2 活性可取消该效应。上述结果均表明,PAR2 参与调控 EPC 功能,特异性活化 PAR2可直接抑制EPC增殖与迁移。

  • 生理状态下EPC主要定居于骨髓干细胞池,损伤后接受相关信号、从骨髓动员至外周血,继而定位于受损组织、发挥生物学效应。该过程受多种信号调控,如 VEGF⁃A、SDF⁃1、VEGFR⁃2、CXCR⁃4 等。 VEGF⁃A作为多效生长因子,可与受体VEGFR⁃2结合,通过促进EPC增殖以促进血管生成[16];SDF⁃1作为关键干细胞归巢因子,SDF⁃1/CXCR⁃4 轴在调控 EPC迁移中发挥重要作用[17]。本研究发现PAR2激活显著下调VEGF⁃A、SDF⁃1及相关受体表达,提示 PAR2抑制 EPC 功能可能与此相关。然而,有研究显示 PAR2 激活可促 EPC 迁移及成管而不影响增殖[18],与本研究结果存在差异。究其原因,可能由于该研究类胰蛋白酶组同时加入了肝素,改变了类胰蛋白酶结构(肝素参与类胰蛋白酶组装[19]),造成细胞反应差异;此外研究中 EPC 来源不同,也可能是造成差异的重要因素。

  • RhoA作为PAR2的重要下游信号,参与细胞骨架重塑、运动黏附以及凋亡等过程[20]。本研究显示,RhoA 是 PAR2 诱导 EPC 功能变化的重要通路。活化 PAR2 可上调 EPC 中 RhoA 表达,PAR2 抑制剂可取消该效应,特异性抑制RhoA活性可逆转PAR2 激活诱导的 EPC 功能下调。作为细胞运动调节相关的核心因子,Rho家族参与细胞事件中的诸多环节,RhoA通过其效应器Rho相关蛋白激酶,促肌动球蛋白收缩以参与细胞运动相关过程。研究表明,细胞增殖过程中 RhoA 表达下调,抑制肌动球蛋白形成与收缩,进而促进与干/祖细胞增殖、分化相关的 Yes 相关蛋白/含 PDZ 结合序列转录共激活子 (Yes ⁃ associated protein/transcriptional co ⁃ activator with PDZ binding motif,YAP/TAZ)核转位,细胞增殖能力增强[21];而细胞运动过程中,除细胞前端板状伪足提供动力外,下调的 RhoA 导致细胞后缘肌动球蛋白收缩力减弱,有利于松散细胞与细胞以及细胞与基质间的连接,使其易向不同方向延伸[22-23]。本研究中RhoA表达受PAR2激活而上调,可能通过调控肌动球蛋白的形成并增强其收缩,在增殖迁移相关动力学事件中发挥作用。而另有研究发现, RhoA还可通过调节肌动蛋白的再分布及组装、参与 SDF⁃1诱导的细胞迁移[24];本研究发现PAR2活化诱导SDF⁃1下调,或可通过改变RhoA信号、参与EPC 迁移抑制过程。

  • 综上所述,本研究表明 PAR2 可通过上调 EPC RhoA信号抑制细胞增殖、迁移功能,PAR2可能作为 EPC功能调控的重要靶标。鉴于EPC在内皮修复与再生中的重要作用,研究结果为血管相关疾病的治疗提供了新思路。然而本研究仅在体外进行了相关探索,仍存在不足,有待在体内进一步展开深入研究。
