王云濤①白義鳳②胡洪林②許峰①
目的:探討miR-181d在調(diào)節(jié)小細(xì)胞肺癌化療敏感性中的作用。方法:通過QRT-PCR和Western blot檢測(cè)小細(xì)胞肺癌敏感細(xì)胞株H69及耐藥細(xì)胞株H69AR中miR-181d的差異表達(dá)。上調(diào)H69AR細(xì)胞中的miR-181d表達(dá),檢測(cè)miR-181d和BCL2表達(dá);通過CCK8檢測(cè)細(xì)胞對(duì)各種化療藥物(ADM、DDP、VP-16)的敏感性變化,QRT-PCR檢測(cè)87例小細(xì)胞肺癌組織標(biāo)本中miR-181d表達(dá),所有患者均接受EP方案(依托泊苷+順鉑)化療,分析其與患者預(yù)后及生存時(shí)間的關(guān)系。結(jié)果:miR-181d在H69AR及對(duì)化療耐藥患者中呈低表達(dá),同時(shí)伴隨著BCL2高表達(dá)(P<0.001)。上調(diào)miR-181d能降低BCL2表達(dá)水平,增加H69AR細(xì)胞對(duì)化療藥物(ADM、DDP、VP-16)的敏感性(P<0.01)。miR-181d的表達(dá)與腫瘤的分期、對(duì)化療藥物的敏感性及生存時(shí)間相關(guān)(P<0.001),高表達(dá)miR-181d的患者總生存時(shí)間(OS)和無進(jìn)展生存時(shí)間(DFS)較低表達(dá)者延長(zhǎng)(P<0.001)。結(jié)論:miR-181d可能在小細(xì)胞肺癌多藥耐藥中發(fā)揮著重要的作用,miR-181d可望作為評(píng)價(jià)小細(xì)胞肺癌療效的預(yù)測(cè)指標(biāo)。
小細(xì)胞肺癌 miR-181d 多藥耐藥
小細(xì)胞肺癌(small cell lung cancer,SCLC)是一種惡性程度很高的肺癌,以生長(zhǎng)迅速、早期轉(zhuǎn)移、高度侵襲性為特點(diǎn)。由于絕大多數(shù)患者于確診時(shí)已伴有淋巴結(jié)或遠(yuǎn)處轉(zhuǎn)移且無手術(shù)治療指征,故化療和放療成為其主要治療方法。小細(xì)胞肺癌的腫瘤細(xì)胞對(duì)化療和放療都非常敏感,但數(shù)十年來多方案的臨床試驗(yàn)并未找到徹底治愈小細(xì)胞肺癌的有效方法,多數(shù)患者在一線治療以后因化療耐藥導(dǎo)致腫瘤復(fù)發(fā)或轉(zhuǎn)移,臨床預(yù)后差,因此小細(xì)胞肺癌的多藥耐藥已成為目前亟待解決的問題[1-2]。miR-181d是一個(gè)重要的基因表達(dá)調(diào)控因子,功能涉及生物體免疫、炎癥、細(xì)胞周期調(diào)控、細(xì)胞凋亡及分化等病理生理的過程[3]。
前期有研究通過基因芯片發(fā)現(xiàn)miR-181d在SCLC耐藥細(xì)胞株中呈低表達(dá)[4],然而關(guān)于其在小細(xì)胞肺癌中的表達(dá)及與多藥耐藥的關(guān)系及可能的機(jī)制目前尚未見相關(guān)報(bào)道?;蛐畔W(xué)分析發(fā)現(xiàn),miR-181d與BCL2之間有靶向作用關(guān)系,本研究通過檢測(cè)miR-181d與BCL2在SCLC耐藥細(xì)胞株及組織中的表達(dá),進(jìn)一步分析其對(duì)SCLC多藥耐藥的影響及臨床意義。

我國(guó)肺癌發(fā)病率逐年增加,SCLC發(fā)病率占原發(fā)性肺癌的15%~20%,多年來的研究主要集中在非小細(xì)胞肺癌(non-small cell lung cancer,NSCLC)治療上,而SCLC的發(fā)病率增長(zhǎng),數(shù)十年來治療無明顯突破。盡管小細(xì)胞肺癌患者對(duì)化療敏感,但很快出現(xiàn)的多藥耐藥(multidrug resistance,MDR)現(xiàn)象是導(dǎo)致化療失敗的主要原因,極易復(fù)發(fā)[4,6-7]。因此,明確小細(xì)胞肺癌的發(fā)生、發(fā)展及耐藥機(jī)制,成為臨床上治療SCLC及提高生活質(zhì)量、延長(zhǎng)生存時(shí)間亟需解決的重要問題。
miRNA是長(zhǎng)度約22 nt的單鏈非編碼RNA,其主要作用在于轉(zhuǎn)錄后水平調(diào)控成百上千個(gè)基因的表達(dá),因而具有廣泛的生物學(xué)功能,miRNA的異常表達(dá)的是不同類型腫瘤的一個(gè)共同的特征,并且在不同的腫瘤中有其特征性的表達(dá)譜,對(duì)腫瘤細(xì)胞的生物學(xué)行為有著重要的影響[8-9]。miRNA-181是一個(gè)在生物進(jìn)化中發(fā)揮重要作用的調(diào)節(jié)因子,在人類基因組中,miR-181家族成員包括miR-181a-1、miR-181a-2、miR-181b-2、miR-181b-2、miR-181c和miR-181d[10]。miR-181最早是在小鼠B淋巴細(xì)胞中被發(fā)現(xiàn)其特異高表達(dá),且能調(diào)控早期造血系統(tǒng)的形成[11]。miR-181在小鼠胸腺、腦、肺等器官中高表達(dá),骨髓和脾臟中也可檢測(cè)出其存在,而在造血前體細(xì)胞中低表達(dá)[12-13]。
近年來的研究發(fā)現(xiàn),miR-181b在胃癌耐藥細(xì)胞株SGC7901/VCR和肺癌耐藥細(xì)胞株A549/CDDP中低表達(dá),上調(diào)miR-181b的表達(dá)能增加細(xì)胞對(duì)化療藥物的敏感性[14];miR-181b的缺失可抑制肝癌細(xì)胞的生長(zhǎng),上調(diào)miR-181b的表達(dá),可增加肝癌細(xì)胞對(duì)化療藥物多柔比星的抵抗[15];miR-181d在膠質(zhì)瘤細(xì)胞中呈低表達(dá),上調(diào)miR-181d的表達(dá)能夠抑制細(xì)胞增殖、促進(jìn)細(xì)胞凋亡,細(xì)胞周期發(fā)生阻滯,miR-181d通過靶向作用于K-ras和miR-181d基因相關(guān)信號(hào)通路發(fā)揮腫瘤抑制劑作用[16]。miRNA-181通過調(diào)節(jié)DAX-1基因的表達(dá)促進(jìn)前列腺癌細(xì)胞的增殖[17],上調(diào)膠質(zhì)瘤細(xì)胞中miR-181a/b/c/d任何亞單位的表達(dá)都能增加膠質(zhì)瘤細(xì)胞對(duì)替莫唑胺的敏感性[18]。miR-181d通過在轉(zhuǎn)錄后水平調(diào)節(jié)甲基鳥嘌呤甲基轉(zhuǎn)移酶(MGMT)的表達(dá),可作為膠質(zhì)瘤對(duì)替莫唑胺敏感性預(yù)測(cè)的生物標(biāo)志物[19]。miR-181在對(duì)順鉑耐藥的肺腺癌細(xì)胞株中高表達(dá)[20],然而關(guān)于miR-181與小細(xì)胞肺癌耐藥的相關(guān)性目前研究少。本研究發(fā)現(xiàn)miR-181d在小細(xì)胞肺癌多藥耐藥細(xì)胞株H69AR中呈低表達(dá),同時(shí)伴隨著BCL2的高表達(dá)。過表達(dá)miR-181d降低BCL2的表達(dá)水平,增加H69AR細(xì)胞對(duì)化療藥物(ADM、DDP、VP-16)的敏感性。本研究結(jié)果提示miR-181d可能通過影響B(tài)CL2的表達(dá)參與調(diào)節(jié)小細(xì)胞肺癌化療敏感性。
越來越多的研究證實(shí)miR-181在多種腫瘤組織中表達(dá)異常,一項(xiàng)關(guān)于miR-181a在直腸癌組織及正常直腸組織中的差異表達(dá)的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)低表達(dá)miR-181a的患者的組織分化低,總生存時(shí)間及無進(jìn)展生存時(shí)間縮短[21]。一項(xiàng)納入11個(gè)研究1 252例患者的Meta分析結(jié)果顯示,針對(duì)血液系統(tǒng)惡性腫瘤的miR-181a/b表達(dá)與患者總生存時(shí)間及風(fēng)險(xiǎn)比的關(guān)系中,高表達(dá)miR-181a/b能夠延長(zhǎng)患者總生存時(shí)間(HR= 0.717,P<0.000 1),但miR-181a/b的表達(dá)對(duì)生存時(shí)間的影響在各種腫瘤之間無差異(HR=0.861,P= 0.356)[22]。本研究發(fā)現(xiàn)miR-181d在耐藥患者組織中低表達(dá),高表達(dá)miR-181d的患者的總生存時(shí)間(OS)和無進(jìn)展生存時(shí)間(DFS)較低表達(dá)者顯著延長(zhǎng),同時(shí)研究還發(fā)現(xiàn)miR-181d的表達(dá)與腫瘤的分期、對(duì)化療藥物的敏感性及生存時(shí)間相關(guān)(P<0.001),高表達(dá)miR-181d的患者的總生存時(shí)間(OS)和無進(jìn)展生存時(shí)間(DFS)較低表達(dá)者延長(zhǎng),差異具有統(tǒng)計(jì)學(xué)意義。
本研究結(jié)果提示miR-181d通過調(diào)節(jié)BCL2的表達(dá)與患者的化療敏感性及生存時(shí)間和臨床預(yù)后相關(guān),然而影響SCLC化療敏感性和臨床預(yù)后的因素很多,miR-181d是通過何種途徑影響SCLC的發(fā)生、發(fā)展及其機(jī)制目前尚未完全闡明,值得進(jìn)一步研究。

Objective:To investigate the possible role of miR-181d in regulating the multidrug resistance(MDR)of small cell lung cancer(SCLC)and its clinical significance.Methods:Quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction(QRT-PCR) and Western blot were used to investigate the differential expression of miR-181d and BCL2 from mRNA and protein levels in the chemo-sensitivity cell H69 and the chemo-resistance cell H69AR.The miR-181d expression in H69AR was then upregulated.Moreover,CCK8 assay was employed to detect the sensitivities of the cells to chemotherapy drugs,such as ADM,DDP,and VP-16.Meanwhile,the expression of miR-181d in the specimens of 87 cases with SCLC were detected using QRT-PCR.All patients received the chemotherapeutic regimen of EP(etoposide+cisplatin).Correlation of the miR-181d expression with clinicopathological features,prognosis,and survival time of the patients was studied.Results:miR-181d was downregulated in the SCLC multidrug-resistant cell line H69AR and chemo-resistant patients.Moreover,miR-181d was concurrent with the upregulation of BCL2 protein compared with the parental H69 cell line and chemo-sensitive patients(P<0.001).miR-181d expression in H69 cells resistant to chemotherapy drugs (ADM,DDP,and VP-16)was inhibited(P<0.01).Enforced miR-181d expression reduced the BCL2 protein level and sensitized H69AR cells to chemotherapy drugs(P<0.01).miR-181d expression was associated with tumor stage,sensitivity of chemotherapy,and survival time(all P<0.001).Patients with high miR-181d expression had longer overall survival and progress-free survival time compared with those with low miR-181d expression(P<0.001).Conclusion:miR-181d may play a role in the development of MDR in SCLC and may be a potential predictive factor for treatment efficacy.
