【摘要】 目的:探索增加极低密度脂蛋白受体(VLDLR)基因表达对2型糖尿病大鼠脂代谢紊乱和动脉粥样斑块的影响。方法:构建携带人VLDLR基因的重组腺相关病毒载体(rAAV-VLDLR)。高脂高糖饮食8周后尾静脉注射小剂量链脲佐菌素(STZ)造2型糖尿病动物模型,VLDLR治疗组大鼠注射rAAV-VLDLR,糖尿病对照组注射rAAV-0。RT-PCR及Western blotting分别检测大鼠骨骼肌、心脏、主动脉、肝脏、脂肪VLDLR mRNA及蛋白表达水平。检测VLDLR基因对血糖、胰岛素、稳态模型胰岛素抵抗指数(HOMA-IR)、甘油三酯(TG)、胆固醇(TC)、脂蛋白脂酶(LPL)活性及主动脉粥样斑块的影响。结果:rAAV-0组大鼠骨骼肌、主动脉、脂肪VLDLR mRNA及蛋白水平低于正常组,VLDLR治疗组VLDLR mRNA及蛋白水平较rAAV-0组有不同程度增加。VLDLR治疗后4、8周的TG及4、8、12周的TC明显降低(P<0.05),8周HOMA-IR明显降低(P<0.05),LPL活性明显增强(P<0.05),主动脉内膜损伤减轻。结论:增加VLDLR基因表达对改善2型糖尿病大鼠脂代谢紊乱效果显著,并可在此基础上减轻主动脉粥样斑块程度。

【Abstract】 AIM:To investigate the effect of very low density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR) gene therapy on the hyperlipidemia and atherosclerosis in type 2 diabetes rats. METHODS: Rats in type 2 diabetic group was fed with high fat and high glucose diet, after 8 weeks STZ (streptozotocin, 25 mg/kg body weight) was injected via the tail vein, while the normal control group was fed with normal diet. Recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) mediated VLDLR gene or rAAV-0 was introduced into the diabetic rats. The expressions of VLDLR mRNA and protein were detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blotting in muscle, heart, aorta, liver and adipose tissues. The fasting blood glucose, fasting insulin, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC) and lipoprotein lipase activity were measured after VLDLR treatment. The atherosclerotic plaque was determined by histochemical method. RESULTS: The VLDLR mRNA and protein levels in muscle, aorta, adipose were lower in rAAV-0 rats than those in normal control rats. Compared with the rAAV-0 group, the VLDLR mRNA and protein expressions increased in rAAV-VLDLR group. The triglyceride (4 weeks, 8 weeks), cholesterol (4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks) and HOMA-IR (8 weeks) in rAAV-VLDLR group were significantly lower than those in rAAV-0 group after treatment (P<0.05). In rAAV-VLDLR group, the plasma LPL activity was significantly enhanced than that in rAAV-0 group (P<0.05). The endothelial damage of the aortas in rAAV-VLDLR rats was less severe than that in rAAV-0 rats. CONCLUSION: The recombinant adeno-associated virus mediated VLDLR gene therapy improves the hyperlipidemia and attenuates the development of atherosclerosis in type 2 diabetic rats.
