目的
2
观察青蒿琥酯(artesunate,AS)对多囊卵巢综合征(polycystic ovary syndrome,PCOS)模型小鼠的治疗作用,并对其作用机制进行初步探讨。
方法
2
25只雌性C57BL/6J小鼠按照随机数字表法分为(
n
=5):对照组(Control组)、模型组(PCOS组)、青蒿琥酯低剂量组(AS15组)、青蒿琥酯高剂量组(AS30组)和二甲双胍组(metformin, Met组)。除Control组外,其余各组小鼠皮下注射脱氢表雄酮(dehydroepiandrosterone,DHEA, 60 mg/kg)并给予高脂饲料21 d以构建PCOS模型,AS组腹腔分别注射15和30 mg/kg剂量的青蒿琥酯,Met组灌胃给予200 mg/kg剂量的二甲双胍,每日1次,持续6周。采用ELISA法检测小鼠血清睾酮(testosterone,T)、空腹胰岛素(fasting insulin,FINS)、黄体生成素(luteinizing hormone,LH)、卵泡刺激水平(follicle-stimulating hormone,FSH),并计算LH/FSH比值;采用全自动生化仪检测小鼠空腹血糖(fasting blood glucose,FBG)、甘油三酯(triglyceride,TG)和总胆固醇(total cholesterol,TC)水平,并计算胰岛素抵抗指数(homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance,HOMA-IR);采用HE染色观察小鼠动情周期,以及卵巢、子宫组织病理形态改变;采用免疫荧光染色观察小鼠卵巢组织中p-eIF2α、ATF4、CHOP蛋白表达情况。体外,使用100 μmol/L DHEA诱导人颗粒细胞瘤样细胞系KGN细胞模拟PCOS的高雄激素环境,以5和10 μg/mL浓度的AS分别处理24 h后,Western blot检测内质网应激信号通路蛋白表达情况。
结果
2
与Control组相比,PCOS组小鼠动情周期紊乱,卵巢出现多囊样改变,血清T、LH/FSH比值显著升高(
P
<
0.05);代谢方面,PCOS小鼠HOMA-IR、TC、TG水平明显升高(
P
<
0.01);PCOS小鼠卵巢颗粒细胞和KGN细胞中p-eIF2α、ATF4、CHOP表达增加(
P
<
0.05)。而与PCOS组相比,AS各剂量组小鼠卵巢和子宫病理形态改变显著改善,血清T、LH/FSH比值也明显降低(
P
<
0.05);代谢方面,AS各剂量组小鼠HOMA-IR、TC、TG水平明显降低(
P
<
0.05);AS各剂量组小鼠卵巢颗粒细胞和KGN细胞中p-eIF2α、ATF4、CHOP表达降低(
P
<
0.05)。
结论
2
AS可显著改善PCOS小鼠的糖脂代谢异常和生殖功能,其作用机制可能是通过抑制PERK/eIF2α/ATF4/CHOP通路缓解内质网应激。
Objective
2
To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of artesunate (AS) on polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in mice and explore the potential mechanism primarily.
Methods
2
Twenty-five female C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into Control group
model group (PCOS group)
low- and high-dose AS groups (AS15 and AS30 groups) and metformin group (Met group). In addition to the Control group
the mouse model of PCOS was established by subcutaneous injection of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA
60 mg/kg) following by a high-fat diet for 21 d. After modeling
AS of 15 and 30 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected into the mice of the AS15 and AS30 groups
respectively
and 200 mg/kg Met was given to those of the Met group by gavage
once per day
for 6 weeks. ELISA was used to detect serum testosterone (T)
fasting insulin (FINS)
luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)
and the LH/FSH ratio was calculated. The levels of fasting blood glucose (FBG)
triglyceride (TG) and total cholesterol (TC) were detected by automatic biochemical analyzer
and the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) was calculated. The estrous cycle was observed
and HE staining was performed for pathological changes in the ovary and uterus. Immunofluorescence assay was employed to measure the expression of p-eIF2α
ATF4 and CHOP in the ovarian tissue. After steroidogenic human granulosa-like tumor cell line KGN were exposed to 100 μmol/L DHEA to simulate the hyperandrogen environment of PCOS
and then treated with 5 and 10 μg/mL AS for 24 h
the protein levels of endoplasmic reticulum stress signaling pathway was detected by Western blotting.
Results
2
Compared with the Control group
the PCOS mice had disturbed estrous cycle
polycystic changes in the ovaries
and significantly increased serum T level and LH/FSH ratio (
P
<
0.05)
and obviously elevated HOMA-IR
TC and TG levels in terms of metabolism (
P
<
0.01). The expression levels of p-eIF2α
ATF4 and CHOP were notably up-regulated in the ovarian granulosa cells of PCOS mice and KGN cells after DHEA exposure (
P
<
0.05). Additionally
AS treatment attenuated the pathological changes of ovary a
nd uterine expression
decreased the serum T level and the LH/FSH ratio (
P
<
0.05)
and reduced HOMA-IR
TC and TG levels (
P
<
0.05) when compared with the PCOS mice. Moreover
the expression levels of p-eIF2α
ATF4 and CHOP were significantly down-regulated after AS treatment in both ovarian granulosa cells of PCOS mice and KGN cells (
P
<
0.05).
Conclusion
2
AS significantly improves glycolipid metabolic disorder and reproductive dysfunction in PCOS mice
which may be associated with its suppressing endoplasmic reticulum stress by inhibiting the PERK/eIF2α/ATF4/CHOP pathway.
