Sodium valprovate upregulates miR-34a to inhibit Bcl-2 expression in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells in vitro
To investigate the inhibitory effect of sodium valproate (VPA) exposure on Bcl-2 expression and explore the possible mechanism in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells
in vitro
.
Methods
2
SH-SY5Y cells exposed to different concentrations of VPA were examined for expression levels of bcl-2 mRNA and miR-34a using qRT-PCR and for Bcl-2 protein expression using Western blotting. The changes in the promoter activity of bcl-2 gene in VPA-treated cells were analyzed using a reporter gene assay
and the stability of bcl-2 mRNA was evaluated after transcription inhibition. A miR-34a mimic and a miR-34a antagonist were used to analyze the role of miR-34a in VPA-induced Bcl-2 down-regulation in the cells. The apoptosis of SH-SY5Y cells following VPA exposures was assessed using flow cytometry with Annexin V and PI staining.
Results
2
VPA exposure dose-dependently down-regulated the expression of Bcl-2 at both the mRNA and protein levels in SH-SY5Y cells (
P
<
0.05). VPA treatment significantly decreased the stability of bcl-2 mRNA (
P
<
0.05) without affecting its transcriptional activity (
P
>
0.05)
and obviously up-regulated the expression of miR-34a in SH-SY5Y cells (
P
<
0.05). Treatment of the cells with the miR-34a mimic alone inhibited the expression of Bcl-2
and application of the miR-34a antagonist obviously reversed the inhibitory effect of VPA on Bcl-2 expression in SH-SY5Y cells. VPA exposure also significantly increased the apoptosis of SH-SY5Y cells (
P
<
0.05).
Conclusion
2
VPA exposure down-regulates the expression of Bcl-2 possibly by up-regulating miR-34a level in SH-SY5Y cells.
