摘要 目的:探讨转录因子性别决定区Y框蛋白2(SOX2)基因通过诱导程序性死亡因子配体1(PD-L1)表达,促进乳腺癌细胞免疫逃逸的作用机制。方法:qRT-PCR和Western blot法检测人乳腺癌细胞系MDA-MB-231、SK-BR-3和正常乳腺上皮细胞系MCF10A中SOX2、PD-L1、T细胞免疫球蛋白及粘蛋白结构域分子3(TIM3)和核受体亚家族4 A组成员1(NR4A1)的mRNA表达量及对应蛋白表达量。分别构建SOX2敲减质粒NC和si-SOX2并转染MDA-MB-231,与细胞因子诱导的杀伤细胞构建共培养体系,连续培养48h,MTT法检测细胞增殖率,TUNEL法检测细胞凋亡率,乳酸脱氢酶(LDH)释放实验检测 T细胞杀伤率,ELISA检测T细胞活化标志物IL-2和IFN-γ,qRT-PCR 检测 T 细胞耗竭标志物 PD-1、TIM3和NR4A1 mRNA表达量。结果:与MCF10A相比,MDA-MB-231与SK-BR-3中SOX2、PD-L1、TIM3、NR4A1的mRNA表达量及对应蛋白表达量均显著升高(P<0.05)。与空白组和NC组相比,si-SOX2组SOX2 mRNA和PD-L1蛋白表达量明显下降,细胞增殖率显著下降,细胞凋亡率增加,T细胞杀伤率增加,IL-2和IFN-γ水平升高,PD-1、TIM3和NR4A1 mRNA表达量降低(P<0.05)。结论:SOX2基因可能通过诱导PD-L1高表达,进而促使乳腺癌细胞免疫逃逸的能力增强,沉默SOX2表达可以增强T细胞杀伤力,抑制肿瘤增殖,SOX2基因有望成为乳腺癌干预的重要分子靶点。 |

ABSTRACT Objective: To investigate the mechanism of transcription factor sex determining region Y box protein 2 (SOX2) gene promoting immune escape of breast cancer cells by inducing the expression of programmed death factor ligand 1 (PD-L1). Methods: The expressions of SOX2, PD-L1, T cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain molecule 3 (TIM3), and nuclear receptor subfamily 4A group member 1 (NR4A1) mRNA and corresponding protein expressions in human breast cancer cell lines MDA-MB-231, SK-BR-3 and normal breast epithelial cell line MCF10A were detected by qRT-PCR, and Western blot. SOX2 knockdown plasmids NC and si-SOX2 were constructed, transfected with MDA-MB-231, and constructed a coculture system with cytokine induced killer cells. They were continuously cultured for 48 hours, cell proliferation rate was detected by MTT assay, apoptosis rate was detected by TUNEL assay, T cell killing rate was detected by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release assay, T cell activation markers IL-2 and IFN-γ were detected by ELISA, the mRNA expression levels of T cell depletion marker PD-1, TIM3, and NR4A1 were detected by qRT-PCR. Results: Compared with MCF10A, the expression levels of SOX2, PD-L1, TIM3, NR4A1 mRNA and corresponding protein expressions in MDA-MB-231 and SK-BR-3 were significantly increased (P<0.05). Compared with the blank group and NC group, the si-SOX2 group showed significant decrease in the expressions of SOX2 mRNA and PD-L1 protein, significant decrease in cell proliferation rate, increase in cell apoptosis rate, increase in T cell killing rate, increase in IL-2 and IFN-γ levels, decrease in the mRNA expression levels of PD-1, TIM3, and NR4A1 (P<0.05). Conclusion: SOX2 gene may enhance the immune escape ability of breast cancer cells by inducing high expression of PD-L1. Silencing SOX2 expression can enhance the lethality of T cells and inhibit tumor proliferation. SOX2 gene is expected to become an important molecular target of breast cancer intervention. |
