Background
Liver fibrosis is a pathological process, and refers to a disease of abnormal hyperplasia of connective tissue in liver caused by liver toxic substances or various pathogenic factors such as viral hepatitis, and seriously endangers human health. Any liver injury has liver fibrosis process in the liver repairing and healing process, and if injury factors cannot be removed for a long time, the fibrosis process can develop into liver cirrhosis and even liver cancer after long-term persistence. At present, few medicines for treating liver fibrosis are clinically used, and no efficient medicine and method for reversing fibrosis are found yet.
Existing studies indicate that hepatic stellate cells are stimulated and activated by exogenous molecules of different nature to undergo fibrosis. Activation of hepatic stellate cells is an important precondition for fibrosis occurrence, so that new drugs for targeted inhibition of hepatic stellate cell activation can be found, and the method has important significance for finding and treating hepatic fibrosis diseases. Studies show that after hepatic stellate cells are activated, metabolism in the cells can change, a large amount of energy is required to be consumed, and inhibition of glycolysis and glutamine deprivation has the effect of inhibiting hepatic stellate cell activation; liver injury results in increased expression of Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH), which in turn catalyzes the conversion of pyruvate to lactate, which inhibits the action of sodium oxamate, a known lactate dehydrogenase inhibitor, against liver fibrosis. Inhibition of hepatic stellate cell activation by inhibition of lactate dehydrogenase as an anti-fibrotic target may be of great importance for improving liver fibrosis.

The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the following examples in order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for purposes of illustration only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
The specific conditions are not noted in the invention, and the method is carried out according to the conventional conditions or the conditions suggested by manufacturers; the reagents or apparatus used were conventional products available commercially without the manufacturer's attention. In the embodiments of the present invention, the percentages are all by volume unless otherwise specified.
Male C57BL/6J mice, 6-8 weeks old, were purchased from Liaoning Changsheng Biotechnology Co. Mice are fed in an independently ventilated mechanism cage (IVC) system, so that the mice can drink and ingest freely and fully, and the light and dark cycles are carried out for 12 hours, and the room temperature is limited to 21-25 ℃. Following the principle of completely random grouping in the behavioural experiments, mice were transferred to the behavioural laboratory one day in advance to adapt to the environment, and the experiment remained quiet and odorless throughout the course of the experiment. Animal experiments were approved by the university of Hebei's animal ethics committee and followed the guidelines for laboratory animal care and use of Hebei's university.
In order to better illustrate the present invention, the following examples are provided for further illustration.
Example 1 animal behavioural test
After one week of prior adaptation, the mice were randomized into control, model and dosing groups. The model group adopts CCl 4 to induce liver injury of mice, and the volume concentration of the olive oil with the volume concentration of CCl 4 of 10% is injected into the abdominal cavity, the injection amount is 2mL/kg, and the model group is recorded as CCl 4 group; the administration group adopts CCl 4 to induce liver injury of mice, and then orally administrates sodium oxamate every day, wherein the dosage is 750mg/kg, and is recorded as CCl 4 +sodium oxamate group; the control group was not treated. Mice were sacrificed 48h after cci 4 injection, blood and liver were collected rapidly and stored at-80 ℃ for further analysis.
Immunofluorescence test: liver tissue was fixed and then sectioned to a thickness of 6 μm and permeabilized with PBS containing 0.2% Triton X-100 at room temperature for 5min; after blocking for 1h with PBS containing 10% FBS, adding primary antibody alpha-SMA (volume ratio of primary antibody to PBS is 1:200, cell signaling technique) and incubating overnight in a humidified chamber at 4deg.C; the sections were then washed and after incubation with fluorescein-labeled secondary antibody (from zemoeimeric) for 1h, nuclei were counterstained with 4', 6-diamine-2-phenylindole Dihydrochloride (DAPI). Fluorescence was observed and captured using a disk scanning unit confocal imaging system (available from olympus), the results of which are shown in fig. 1.
Fluorescent quantitative PCR test: the liver tissue total RNA was extracted from the control group, model group and administration group using a one-step total RNA extraction kit (purchased from Promega), and the results are shown in FIGS. 2 to 4. Total RNA was reverse transcribed into cDNA using TaqMan reverse transcription kit (available from Semer Fielder) according to the instructions. The relative quantification of mRNA expression was performed using a PCR kit (QIAGEN from Germany) and a CFX96 Touch Real-Time system. The control group uses actin beta (beta-actin) as an internal reference. Primers were synthesized by the Biotechnology company and the sequences of the type 1 collagen alpha1 strand (collagen TYPE I ALPHA1CHAIN GENE, col1 alpha 1), type 3 collagen alpha1 strand (collagen TYPE III ALPHA chain, col3 alpha 1), alpha-smooth muscle actin (alpha-smooth muscle actin, alpha-SMA) and beta-actin primers are shown in Table 1.

From FIGS. 1 to 4, it can be seen that CCl 4 stimulation can cause fibrosis of the liver of the mice, and the liver fibrosis degree can be effectively improved after the treatment of sodium oxamate serving as a lactate dehydrogenase inhibitor.
EXAMPLE 2 Primary hepatic stellate cell assay
Primary Hepatic Stellate Cell (HSC) extraction experiments were performed on normal mice. Firstly, pouring Hanks liquid containing 100mg/mL penicillin, streptomycin and 0.5% EGTA; 10% collagenase IV solution was prepared, 10% penicillin and streptomycin were added, and CaCl 2 was added to a final concentration of 0.2mM, and the mice were continuously perfused. The liver was carefully removed and digested at 37 ℃ for 45min; the digested liver tissue was filtered, and hepatic stellate cells were isolated by gradient centrifugation.
The control group was not treated; the experimental groups were divided into three groups, and the three groups were stimulated by adding 10. Mu.g/mL TGF-. Beta.to the culture medium of hepatic stellate cells, respectively, one group was treated with sodium oxamate (to a final concentration of 20 mM), and one group was treated with sodium oxamate (to a final concentration of 20 mM) and exogenous lactic acid (to a final concentration of 10 mM) simultaneously. The three experimental groups were designated as TGF-beta group, TGF-beta+sodium oxalate group and TGF-beta+sodium oxalate+lactate group, respectively.
Immunofluorescence test: after 24h treatment with the corresponding reagent, the control and experimental groups (3 groups) were washed with PBS and fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 20min; PBS containing 0.2% Triton X-100 was allowed to permeate for 5min; the cells were blocked with PBS containing 10% FBS for 1h, and alpha-SMA and LDHA (the volume ratio of primary antibody to PBS solution was 1:1000, available from Wohan Sanying Biotechnology Co., ltd.) were labeled with primary antibody overnight. The sections were then incubated with fluorescein-labeled secondary antibodies (available from zemoeimeric) for 1h. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI staining for 10min. The image was taken by ImageXpress Micro confocal microscope (available from the Megu molecular apparatus) and the results are shown in FIG. 5.
Fluorescent quantitative PCR test: the total RNA of the cells of the control group and the experimental group (group 3) were extracted by using a one-step total RNA extraction kit (purchased from Prograham) respectively, and the results are shown in FIGS. 6 to 12. Primer sequences for Col 1. Alpha.1 and Col 3. Alpha.1 are shown in Table 1, primer sequences for hexokinase 2 (HK-II), pyruvate kinase isozyme 2 (PKM 2), glutaminase 2 (GLS 2), glutamate dehydrogenase 1 (GLDH 1) and neutral amino acid transporter B (SLC 1A 5) are shown in Table 2.
TABLE 2 primer sequences for HK-II, PKM2, GLS2, GLDH1 and SLC1A5
The NAD +/NADH, LDHA, ATP production and lactate concentration in the cell homogenates of the control and experimental groups (group 3) were measured using a commercial kit (purchased from Nanjing's institute of biological engineering) and the results are shown in FIGS. 13-16.
Mitochondrial complex activity assay: the activity of mitochondrial complexes I (Complex I) and II (Complex II) was determined using a commercial kit (available from Beijing Soy Biotechnology Co., ltd.). The cells of the control group and the experimental group (3 groups) were collected to extract the supernatant, and then the supernatant was again isolated, and the pellet and crushed cells were collected to examine the activity of the mitochondrial complex, and the results are shown in FIGS. 17 to 18.
Mitochondrial membrane potential detection: HSCs of control and experimental groups (group 3) were seeded in 6-well plates, stained with 5,5', 6' -tetrachloro-1, 1', 3' -tetraethyl pirimicarb-cyanoiodide (JC-1) after 24h treatment with the corresponding reagents, and incubated at 37 ℃ for 30min. The HSCs were then washed twice with JC-1 staining buffer, and stained using ImageXpress Confocal (available from Megu molecular apparatus) and the results are shown in FIG. 19.
As can be seen from fig. 5-7, sodium oxamate is effective against liver fibrosis, but the addition of lactic acid weakens the effect of sodium oxamate. From FIGS. 8 to 13, it can be seen that TGF-beta stimulation increases expression of genes related to glycolysis of primary hepatic stellate cells, genes related to glutamine metabolism, and lactate content, indicating that primary hepatic stellate cell activation is involved in metabolic recombination during liver fibrosis, TGF-beta stimulation increases lactate content to also demonstrate a change in glycolysis, while sodium oxalate has a restorative effect on glycolysis. As can be seen from FIG. 14, TGF-beta stimulation decreases NAD +/NADH, and sodium oxamate decreases the magnitude of the decrease in NAD +/NADH. From FIGS. 16-19, it can be seen that TGF-beta stimulation increases the activity of mitochondrial complexes I and II, while sodium oxamate inhibits the increase in mitochondrial complex activity, with more pronounced inhibition of mitochondrial complex I activity.
EXAMPLE 3 Primary hepatic stellate cell Nuclear assay
Immunofluorescence test: after 24h treatment with the corresponding reagent, the control and experimental groups (3 groups) were washed with PBS and fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 20min; PBS containing 0.2% Triton X-100 was allowed to permeate for 5min; the cells were blocked with PBS containing 10% FBS for 1h, and alpha-SMA and LDHA (the volume ratio of primary antibody to PBS solution was 1:1000, available from Wohan Sanying Biotechnology Co., ltd.) were labeled with primary antibody overnight. The sections were then incubated with fluorescein-labeled secondary antibodies (available from zemoeimeric) for 1h. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI staining for 10min. The image was taken by ImageXpress Micro confocal microscope (available from the Megu molecular apparatus) and the results are shown in FIG. 20.
Protein immunoblotting: extracting nucleoprotein and total protein of hepatic stellate cells in a control group and an experimental group (3 groups), extracting the nucleoprotein by using a Biyun-Tian cell plasma protein and nucleoprotein extraction kit, cleaning adherent cells by using PBS, scraping cell supernatant by using a cell scraper, centrifugally collecting and discarding, adding 200 mu L of cell plasma protein extraction reagent A, carrying out ice bath for 15min after vortex, adding 10 mu L of cell plasma protein extraction reagent B for 1min, and centrifuging for 5min at 12000 r/min-16000 r/min to obtain the cell plasma protein; after adding 50. Mu.L of a nucleoprotein extraction reagent to the pellet, vortexing and then ice-bathing, repeating this step for 30min and centrifuging again to obtain the supernatant. then adding loading buffer, and boiling at 100deg.C for 10min; proteins were separated on a 10% SDS-PAGE gel and transferred to PVDF membrane (from Merck) and after 3min of blocking with 5% skimmed milk at room temperature, washed in TBST and incubated overnight at 4℃with primary antibody. The volume ratio of primary antibody to TBST solution was 1:1000, primary antibodies were LDHA (purchased from Proteintech, 19987-1-AP), histone H3 (purchased from Proteintech, 1768-1-AP), acetyl-H3 (purchased from CELL SIGNALING Technology, D5E 4), acetyl-H4 (purchased from Affinity Biosciences Pty Ltd, AF 3355), HDAC3 (purchased from Affinity Biosciences, DF 6280), HDAC4 (purchased from Affinity Biosciences, AF 6349), HDAC5 (purchased from Affinity Biosciences, AF 5348), C-Myc (purchased from CELL SIGNALING Technology, D84C 12) and anti-beta-actin (purchased from CELL SIGNALING Technology, 4970S). The next day, goat anti-rabbit IgG (purchased from Abcam, ab 181662) labeled with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was used as the secondary antibody at a volume ratio of 1:1000 to TBST solution. Results were visualized using Clarity TM WESTERN ECL Substrate in a Bio-Rad chemistry TM XRS system (available from BioRad Laboratories) and are shown in FIG. 21. The results are shown in FIGS. 22 to 23, with the beta-actin or Histone H as the standard (the nucleus is Histone H3, the cytoplasm is beta-actin) and the control group as 1, and the results as fold changes.
The nuclear LDH and lactate concentrations of the control and experimental groups (group 3) were measured using a commercial kit (purchased from the institute of bioengineering, build-up in south kyo) and the results are shown in fig. 24 to 25.
From fig. 20 to 25, it can be seen that TGF- β stimulation results in an increase in LDHA in primary hepatic stellate cell nuclei, accelerating LDHA nuclear transfer, while sodium oxamate inhibits nuclear translocation of LDHA.
The cell was knockdown with respect to LDHA (designated TGF-beta + LDHA SIRNA group and TGF-beta + LDHA SIRNA + lactate group), and the lactic acid content in the nucleus was again examined, and the results are shown in FIG. 26. From the figure, it can be seen that the lactic acid content of the group knocked down LDHA is significantly reduced, indicating that LDHA promotes the production of lactic acid in the nucleus.
