EHD2调节乳腺上皮细胞极性的实验研究

EHD2 Regulation of the Polarity of Breast Mammary Epithelial Cells in 3D Culture

  • 摘要: 研究EHD2基因对上皮细胞极性的调控作用及其机制,探讨EHD2基因在乳腺癌组织中表达失调的肿瘤分子生物学和细胞生物学意义。方法:以乳腺永生化正常上皮细胞的二维和三维培养为模型,建立EHD2突变体的Doxycycline外源诱导表达体系,应用荧光显微镜和激光共聚焦显微成像技术,观察诱导表达前后细胞在二维培养条件下细胞内β肌动蛋白的微丝组装及聚合情况,以及三维基质胶培养条件下对上皮细胞腺泡形成的影响,综合判断EHD2蛋白在调控上皮细胞极性中的生物学作用。结果:EHD2突变的诱导表达显著影响乳腺上皮细胞的骨架重排,在细胞表面发生密集发散状微刺,细胞内定向排列的β肌动蛋白微丝结构消失。三维培养中,EHD2突变体的引入破坏了原本规则的腺泡型生长,细胞向外侵入基质。结论:EHD2突变可导致乳腺上皮细胞的骨架重排和极性改变,可能是乳腺肿瘤发生的重要机制之一。

     

    Abstract: To investigate the EHD2 regulation of epithelial cell polarity and its mechanism, and to understand the molecular and cell biological significance of disordered EHD2 gene expression in breast cancer. Methods: The 2D and 3D culture of immortalized normal mammary epithelial cells were used as models, and the exogenous expression system of EHD2 mutant controlled by a tetracycline response element was established. Fluorescence microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscope imaging were used to observe the microfilament assembly before and after EHD2 mutant expression, and the effects on acini formation in Matrigel. Synthetic judgment of the molecular and cytologic effects of EHD2 protein in regulating epithelial cell polarity was carried out. Results: The induced EHD2 mutant expression significantly affected the rearrangement of the cell cytoskeleton in the immortalized breast epithelial cells. Dense structure of the microspikes generated on cell surface, orientation arrangement of the β-actin filament arrays inside the cell vanished, and the acini formation in 3D Matrigel, with invasive cells emerging into the matrix, was demolished. Conclusion: EHD2 mutation may result in cytoskeletal r-arrangement and polarity change in breast epithelial cells. EHD2 may possibly be one of the key mechanisms in breast tumorigenesis.
