摘要:

肿瘤坏死因子α(TNF-α)是脂肪细胞的分泌产物之一,在脂肪中行使着复杂的调节功能,为了研究猪脂肪组织中TNF-α的表达受到哪些miRNA的调控,从猪脂肪组织基因组中获得猪TNF-α 3'端非翻译区(UTR)序列,与荧光素酶质粒PGL3-control连接构建猪TNF-α的萤光素酶表达质粒PGL3-TNF-α 3'UTR.生物信息学预测miR-19a,miR-124,miR-130a,miR-301, miR-506等miRNAs均靶向猪TNF-α,将这些miRNA分别与PGL3-TNF-α 3'UTR质粒共转到细胞中,以乱序序列作为阴性对照(NC),检测miRNA对质粒荧光素酶活性的作用.结果发现miR-19a,miR-124和miR-130a均能够显著抑制萤光素酶的活性(P<0.01),为了验证这3个miRNA是否通过各自种子序列起调控作用,突变了PGL3-TNF-α 3'UTR中这3个miRNA种子序列的结合位点,结果发现miRNAs对突变质粒中的荧光素酶均无明显抑制作用(P>0.05).结果证明,miR-19a,miR-124和miR-130a与猪TNF-α均有直接的靶向关系并通过各自种子序列抑制TNF-α的表达.

Abstract:

TNF-α is one of the secretory products of adipocyte and is a multifunctional cytokine that plays an important role in regulating lipogenesis. miRNA is a kind of endogenous RNA with length of about 22nt, which regulates 60% of mammalian gene via its seed sequence. Author's previous work found miR-181a, which targeting porcine TNF-α, is highly expressed in a fat-rich pig breed and has an effects on adipocyte differentiation by regulation of TNF-α. In order to find out which miRNAs that targeting the porcine TNF-α, 3 end untranslated region of porcine TNF-α were amplified and the PCR product was digested with Xba I and Hpa I, then ligated to pGL3-control at the corresponding sites to construct the luciferase expression plasmid pGL3-TNF-α-UTR. Then five miRNA miR-19a,miR-124,miR-130a,miR-301, miR-506 were predicted to target TNF-α using bioinformatic analysis(softwares of TargetScan:http://www.targetscan.org/、miRanda:http://www.microrna.org/microrna/home.do and Pictar:http://pictar.mdc-berlin.de/). Mimics of these five miRNAs were synthesis and cotransfected with PGL3-TNF-α-UTR into CHO cells respectively, taking scrambled sequence as negative control. The results showed that TNF-α was the target of miR-19a, miR-124 and miR-130a by a dual luciferase assay (P<0.01). To verify whether TNF-α expression was inhibited by the seed sequences of these three miRNAs, binding sites of miR-19a, miR-124 and miR-130a on TNF-α3' UTR were mutated to design the rite-directed mutagenesis primers, after PCR amplifying, the products were digested with Dpn I to remove the originally un-mutated template. Then the mutated vectors PGL3-TNF-α-UTR-mutant1(miR-19/130a) and 2(miR-124)were constructed. The mutated plasmids were cotransfected with miR-19a, miR-124 and miR-130a respectively, and the result of dual luciferase assay showed that they all have no significant effect on depressing the expression of TNF-α(P>0.05).The result showed that porcine TNF-α is the target of miR-19a, miR-124 and miR-130a and they all inhibit the expression of TNF-α by their seed sequences, which provided the evidence of interrelationship between TNF-α and the three miRNAs.
