Abstract

Objective To investigate the expression of interleukin(IL)-34/ colony stimulating factor(CSF)-1R in the process of transforming growth factor(TGF)-β1 inducing epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of human alveolar epithelial cells A549 cells. Methods A549 cells were cultured in vitro. CCK 8 was used to test the influence of the proliferative rate of A549 cells which were stimulated by TGF-β1 at different concentrations and time points. A549 cells were stimulated by 5μg/L TGF-β1 at 0 hour, the 12th hour, the 24th hour, and the 48th hour. Western blotting was adopted to detect changes of the following proteins: α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA), E-cadherin(E-Cad), matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1(TIMP-1). Real-time PCR was adopted to detect changes of the following genes: IL-34 mRNA, CSF-1R mRNA, MMP-2 mRNA and MMP-9 mRNA. Results TGF-β1 had no significant influence in the proliferation of A549 cells compared with the control group(P>0.05). TGF-β1(5μg/L)stimulated A549 cells at different time point (0 hour, 12, 24, 48 hours), compared with the control group. The epithelial phenotype E-Cad protein was gradually down-regulated(P<0.01), while the mesenchymal phenotype α-SMA protein was gradually up-regulated(P<0.01) and the protein of MMP-2 increased gradually (P<0.01). The protein of MMP-9 increased firstly and then was reduced(P<0.01),the peak was at the 24th hour. The protein of TIMP-1 was firstly transiently increased and then reduced(P<0.01), the minimum was at the 48th hour. Compared with the control group, the gene of IL-34 mRNA increased gradually (P<0.01), and the genes of CSF-1R mRNA, MMP-2 mRNA and MMP-9 mRNA increased firstly and then decreased(P<0.01), which were peaked respectively at the 24th hour, the 24th hour, the 12th hour, respectively. Conclusion In the process of TGF-β1 inducing A549 cells transition,there is accompanied with the expression of IL-34/CSF-1R.
