초록

글루타민과 혈청은 세포의 생존과 증식에 기본적으로 요구되지만, 그들의 양적 변화에 따른 내피세포 반응에 관한 신호전달 관련 연구는 거의 이루어지지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 인체 재대정맥 내피세포(human umbilical vein endothelial cells, HUVECs)의 증식에 미치는 글루타민과 혈청의 결핍에 관한 영향을 조사하였다. 본 연구의 결과에 의하면 글루타민 및 혈청이 결핍된 조건에서 배양된 HUVECs의 증식 억제는 apoptosis 유발과 연관성이 있었음을 DAPI staining에 의한 핵의 형태 변화와 유세포 분석을 통하여 확인하였다. 비록 혈청이 결핍된 조건보다 글루타민 결핍에 의한 apoptosis 유발 정도가 더 높게 나타났으나, 두 현상에 의한 apoptosis의 유발은 anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 및 Bcl-xL의 발현 저하와 pro-apoptotic Bax의 발현 증가, IAP family 단백질의 발현 감소, caspase의 활성 증가에 따른 PARP 단백질의 단편화와 연관성이 있었다. 또한 이러한 조건에서 HUVECs의 Bid 발현의 감소 또는 tBid 발현의 증가 현상이 관찰되어, 글루타민 또는 혈청 결핍에 의한 HUVECs의 apoptosis 유발은 세포막 수용체 및 미토콘드리아 활성 경로를 동시에 통하여 이루어지고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 글루타민과 혈청이 동시에 결핍된 조건에서 배양된 HUVECs의 증식 억제 현상은 각각의 조건에 비하여 증가되었으나 apoptosis는 유발되지 않았다.

Glutamine and serum are essential for cell survival and proliferation in vitro, yet the signaling pathways that sense glutamine and serum levels in endothelial cells remain uninvestigated. In this study, we examined the effects of glutamine deprivation and serum starvation on the fate of endothelial cells using a human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) model. Our data indicated that glutamine deprivation and serum starvation trigger a progressive reduction in cell viability through apoptosis induction in HUVECs as determined by DAPI staining and flow cytometry analysis. Although the apoptotic effects were more predominant in the glutamine deprivation condition, both apoptotic actions were associated with an increase in the Bax/Bcl-2 (or Bcl-xL) ratio, down-regulation of the inhibitor of apoptosis protein (IAP) family proteins, activation of caspase activities, and concomitant degradation of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerases. Moreover, down-regulation of the expression of Bid or up-regulation of truncated Bid (tBid) were observed in cells grown under the same conditions, indicating that glutamine deprivation and serum starvation induce the apoptosis of HUVECs through a signaling cascade involving death-receptor-mediated extrinsic pathways, as well as mitochondria-mediated intrinsic caspase pathways. However, apoptosis was not induced in cells grown in glutamine- and serum-free media when compared with cells exposed to glutamine deprivation or serum starvation alone. Taken together, our data indicate that glutamine deprivation and serum starvation suppress cell viability without apoptosis induction in HUVECs.
