Abstract
Introduction
Neurodegenerative diseases, which are generally observed in the elderly, comprise a range of chronic degenerative disorders of the central nervous system (CNS), including Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), Huntington's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (1). These diseases are characterized by accumulation of toxic proteins, and gradual and progressive loss of neural cells, which negatively affects the mental and physical functions of patients (1). Over the last two decades, numerous potential mechanisms for the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases have been proposed, including certain genetic polymorphisms, advanced age, endocrine disorders, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, oxidative stress, inflammation and chemical exposure (1,2). Despite progress being made in the identification of initiating factors of neurodegenerative diseases, the causative reagents associated with neuronal degeneration remain poorly understood.
Among the proposed mechanisms, the roles of ER stress and oxidative stress in the development of neuronal degeneration are of particular interest. It has previously been suggested that increased ER stress in neurons contributes to the development of AD, which is considered one of the most common types of neurodegenerative diseases, and related cognitive impairment (3). Volgyi et al (4) reported that formation of toxic β-amyloid (Aβ), which affects the ER and disturbs neurons, occurs during the development of AD, thus suggesting that ER dysfunction may be one of the main pathological pathways in AD. Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced oxidative stress has also been implicated in the pathogenesis of AD and PD (5,6). Furthermore, ROS formation and ER stress are closely linked processes, since ROS can be produced in ER due to protein misfolding and serves an important role in ER stress-induced apoptosis (7).
Recent studies have identified dietary factors, in particular the relative intake of saturated fatty acids and unsaturated fats, as being closely associated with numerous neurodegenerative disorders (8,9). Trans fatty acids (TFAs) are structurally unstable saturated fatty acids with at least one double bond in the trans configuration (10). TFAs within the human diet are predominantly obtained from industrial partial hydrogenation of vegetable oils, and from the natural TFAs present in the milk and body fat of ruminants. Elaidic acid (18:1 trans-9) is the main isomer of TFAs. The pathogenic effects of TFAs have been associated with alterations in cholesterol metabolism and in the structure of biomembranes (11). Previous studies have reported that TFAs are associated with chronic diseases, including coronary heart disease, diabetes and arteriosclerosis (12,13). However, the influence of TFAs on neurodegenerative disorders remains poorly understood. Epidemiological studies have revealed inconsistent results regarding the association of TFAs with the relative risk of developing AD. Morris et al reported that high dietary intake of TFAs was linked with an elevated risk of developing AD (14). However, another study failed to establish the relationship between TFA consumption and AD (15). Grimm et al reported that TFAs increased amyloidogenic processing of amyloid precursor protein, resulting in an increased production of Aβ peptides in SH-SY5Y cells (16). Therefore, the effects of dietary intake of TFAs on neurodegenerative diseases and the mechanism underlying its neurotoxicity require further study.
Morinaga et al reported that the predominant isomer of TFAs, elaidic acid, plus fructose significantly increased oxidative stress and ER stress in mice and in primarily cultured hepatocytes (17). Cassagno et al reported that mice fed a diet rich in TFAs developed increased hepatic oxidative stress and ER stress (18). Given the essential roles of ER stress and oxidative stress in the development of neurodegenerative disorders, the present study explored the effects of TFAs on oxidative damage and ER stress in neurons. The molecules and signaling pathways involved in oxidative damage and ER stress were also determined, with the aim of identifying the possible mechanism underlying elaidic acid-induced neuronal damage in vitro.
Materials and methods
Cell lines and cell culture
The SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cell line was obtained from Peking Union Medical Center Laboratory (Beijing, China). SH-SY5Y cells were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (HyClone; GE Healthcare Life Science, Logan, UT, USA) at 37°C in an atmosphere containing 5% CO2. Elaidic acid was purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany) and was dissolved in DMEM to a concentration of 1 M, finally the stock solution was diluted with DMEM to a concentration of 1,000 µM and stored at −80°C until further use. All experiments were conducted under treatment with various doses (10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 400 or 800 µM) of elaidic acid or vehicle (DMEM) for 24 h.
MTT test
The viability of SH-SY5Y cells was determined using the MTT assay, as previously described (19). Briefly, SH-SY5Y cells were plated at 1×104 cells/well in 96-well plates in 6 replicates, and were incubated in DMEM containing elaidic acid (10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 400 and 800 µM) or DMEM alone (control) for 24 h at 37°C. Subsequently, 20 µl MTT solution (5 mg/ml) was added to each well and the plates were incubated for 4 h at 37°C. The supernatant was discarded and 200 µl DMSO was then added to each well. The absorbance was measured at 570 nm using a microplate reader. In addition, SH-SY5Y cells were treated with 50 µM elaidic acid for 12, 24 and 48 h, respectively, and the viability of cells were also tested by the same methods.
Measurement of ROS
Formation of ROS in cells was detected using the Fluorometric Intracellular ROS kit (Sigma-Aldrich; Merck KGaA) according to the manufacturer's protocol with a slight modification (an increase in incubation time). Briefly, the collected cells were incubated with 10 µM 2′,7′-dichlorofluorescin diacetate dissolved in serum-free DMEM at 37°C for 20 min. The fluorescent signal was then measured using flow cytometry (BD LSRFortessa with FACSDiva software version 7.0; BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ) with an excitation wavelength of 488 nm and an emission wavelength of 530 nm.
Measurement of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP)
Alterations in MMP were measured using the MitoScreen kit (BD Bioscience, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) according to the manufacturer's protocol. Briefly, the SH-SY5Y cells (1×105 cells/35 mm Petri dish) were collected and incubated with 0.5 ml JC-1 working solution for 15 min at 37°C. Cell fluorescence was measured by flow cytometry with an excitation wavelength of 488 nm and an emission wavelength of 530 nm.
Annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)/propidium iodide (PI) staining for apoptosis
Cells in early and late apoptosis were quantified using an Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining assay kit (KGA107; Nanjing KeyGen Biotech Co., Ltd., Nanjing, China) as described previously (20). Cells were harvested by trypsinization and washed three times with PBS. Subsequently, 1×105 cells from each 35 mm Petri dish were resuspended in 500 µl binding buffer and stained with 5 µl Annexin V and 5 µl PI in the dark at room temperature for 20 min. The stained cells were immediately examined using flow cytometry with an excitation wavelength of 488 nm for the green fluorescence of FITC-Annexin V and 561 nm for the red fluorescence of PI.
Measurement of oxidative stress-related biomarkers
Cells (1×105 cells/35 mm Petri dish) were washed with PBS, harvested by trypsin and resuspended in 0.5 ml PBS. An ultrasonic cell disruption system was used and the cells ruptured with ultrasonic waves for 5 sec twice, with a 5 sec interval, at 37°C. Protein concentrations of the cell lysates were measured using the bicinchoninic acid (BCA) protein assay kit (Pierce; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc., Waltham, MA, USA). Subsequently, the levels of lipid peroxide (LPO; A106) and malondialdehyde (MDA; A003-3), the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD; A001-3) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px; A005), and reduced glutathione (GSH)/oxidized glutathione (GSSG) ratio (A061-1) were measured using corresponding assay kits (Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute, Nanjing, China) according to the manufacturer's protocols.
Western blot analysis
Cells were harvested using trypsin and cell pellets were lysed in radioimmunoprecipitation assay buffer (Beijing Solarbio Science & Technology Co., Ltd., Beijing, China) and phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride with vigorous agitation for 15 min at 4°C. The lysates were then centrifuged at 16,000 × g for 15 min at 4°C and the protein-containing supernatant was collected. Total protein concentration was determined using the BCA assay. Western blotting was performed as previously described (21). Briefly, 40 µg cell lysate was separated by 12% SDS-PAGE and the proteins were transferred onto an activated polyvinylidene fluoride membrane at 60 V for 2 h. The membrane was blocked with 5% non-fat dry milk in TBS containing 20% Tween (TBST) at room temperature for 1 h, and was then incubated with anti-β-actin, anti-nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2; ab31163, Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), anti-heme oxygenase (HO)-1 (ab13248; Abcam), anti-inositol requiring enzyme (IRE)1α (9956; 1:1,000; Cell Signaling Technology, Inc., Danvers, MA, USA), anti-glucose-regulated protein (GRP)78 (9956; 1:1,000; Cell Signaling Technology, Inc.), anti-CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein homologous protein (CHOP; 9956; 1:1,000; Cell Signaling Technology, Inc.), anti-activating transcription factor (ATF)4 (11815; 1:1,000; Cell Signaling Technology, Inc.), anti-protein disulfide isomerase (PDI; 9956; 1:1,000; Cell Signaling Technology, Inc.) and anti-endoplasmic oxidoreductin-1-like protein (Ero1-Lα; 9956; 1:1,000; Cell Signaling Technology, Inc.) primary antibodies overnight at 4°C. Subsequently, the membrane was washed three times with TBST and was incubated with the corresponding secondary antibodies (Anti-mouse IgG, HRP-linked Antibody 7076 and Anti-rabbit IgG, HRP-linked Antibody 7074; 1:2,000; Cell Signaling Technology, Inc.) for 1 h at room temperature. Electrochemical luminescence (W101B; Promega Corporation, Madison, WI, USA) was used to visualize the target proteins. Images were obtained using the FluoChem®FC2 imaging system (ProteinSimple; Bio-Techne, Minneapolis, MN, USA) and semi-quantification was performed by analyzing the gray values of protein bands.
Statistical analysis
All data are presented as the mean ± standard error of at least three independent experiments. All data analyses were performed using SPSS software version 16.0 (SPSS, Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). One-way analysis of variance followed by least significant difference or Dunnett's T3 post-hoc tests were used to compare the means of different groups according to the homogeneity of variance. P<0.05 was considered to indicate a statistically significant difference.
Results
Treatment with elaidic acid decreases cell viability
To investigate the effects of elaidic acid on cell viability, SH-SY5Y cells were treated with various concentrations of elaidic acid or vehicle for 24 h and cell viability was measured using the MTT assay. As presented in Fig. 1A, the viability of SH-SY5Y cells was significantly reduced following treatment with 50–800 µM elaidic acid compared with the control group (P=0.044, 0.022, 0.007, 0.005 and 0.002, respectively). In addition, SH-SY5Y cells were treated with 50 µM elaidic acid for 12, 24 and 48 h. Cell viability was gradually decreased as the duration of treatment was prolonged (Fig. 1B), thus suggesting that elaidic acid induced the inhibition of cell viability in a time-dependent manner.
Elaidic acid reduces MMP in SH-SY5Y cells
A distinctive feature of the early stages of apoptosis is the disruption of active mitochondria, including alterations in the MMP and the oxidation-reduction potential of mitochondria. Therefore, the present study investigated the effects of elaidic acid on MMP. The results indicated that the ratio of green fluorescence to red fluorescence was significantly elevated in cells treated with 20–800 µM elaidic acid (P<0.01), indicating the loss of MMP and the occurrence of early apoptotic events. In addition, the extent of the MMP was increased as the concentration of elaidic acid increased (Fig. 2A and B). These findings indicated that elaidic acid induced early apoptosis of SH-SY5Y cells in a dose-dependent manner.
Elaidic acid induces SH-SY5Y cell apoptosis
The present study detected the apoptosis of SH-SY5Y cells following treatment with 20, 50 and 100 µM elaidic acid using Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining and flow cytometry. As presented in Fig. 3A and B, compared with the control group, cells treated with 100 µM elaidic acid exhibited a significantly higher percentage of apoptotic cells.
Elaidic acid induces elevated ROS release from SH-SY5Y cells
Previous studies have indicated that elaidic acid may induce oxidative stress, which is an important trigger of cell apoptosis, in liver cells (17,18). Therefore, the present study examined whether elaidic acid was able to promote the generation of ROS, which is an inducer of oxidative stress in SH-SY5Y cells. As presented in Fig. 4, increased ROS release was observed in cells treated with 200, 400 or 800 µM elaidic acid (P=0.044, 0.002 and 0.019, respectively).
Effects of elaidic acid on cellular redox indicators
The MDA levels in cells treated with 100–800 µM elaidic acid were significantly upregulated compared with in the control group (Table I). LPO levels were also increased following treatment with 50–800 µM elaidic acid (Table I). Elaidic acid only affected SOD activity in the 800 µM treatment group, in which SOD activity was significantly reduced (P<0.05; Table II). In addition, 400 and 800 µM elaidic acid decreased GSH-Px activity in SH-SY5Y cells (P<0.05; Table II). In addition, decreased GSH levels were detected in the 800 µM elaidic acid group, whereas the levels of GSSG were increased in the 200 µM elaidic acid group (P<0.05). However, the ratio of GSH and GSSG showed no significant difference among the groups (P>0.05; Table III).
Effects of elaidic acid on expression of antioxidative factors
Nrf2 regulates the expression of a series of antioxidant proteins, including HO-1, which protect cells against oxidative damage (22). In response to oxidative stress, Nrf2 and HO-1 expression may be upregulated (23). Therefore, the present study measured the expression levels of Nrf2 and HO-1 in response to elaidic acid-induced ROS accumulation. As presented in Fig. 5A and B, the protein expression levels of Nrf2 were upregulated following treatment with 200, 400 and 800 µM elaidic acid at (P=0.008, 0.008 and 0.002, respectively), whereas the expression of HO-1 was significantly inhibited by elaidic acid at 400 and 800 µM (P=0.013 and 0.001, respectively). Although HO-1 protein expression appeared increased following treatment with elaidic acid between 10 and 200 µM, no statistical significance was detected. These results suggested that other mechanisms may participate in the regulation of HO-1 expression, and the loss of HO-1-induced protection following treatment with high concentrations of elaidic acid may contribute to elaidic acid-induced apoptosis.
Elaidic acid induces ER stress in SH-SY5Y cells
Production of ROS is known to be associated with ER stress and activation of the UPR. Overactivation of the UPR has been reported to induce apoptotic cell death and contribute to various degenerative diseases. In the present study, the protein expression levels of GRP78 were significantly upregulated following treatment with 400 and 800 µM elaidic acid (P=0.019 and 0.007, respectively; Fig. 6A and B). ATF4 protein expression was upregulated following treatment with 20–400 µM (P=0.019, 0.001, <0.001, 0.002 and 0.043, respectively; Fig. 6A and B). However, elaidic acid downregulated CHOP expression at the concentrations of 200, 400 and 800 µM (P=0.028, 0.016 and 0.011, respectively; Fig. 6A and B). In addition, no significant alterations were detected in the protein expression levels of IRE1α following treatment with elaidic acid (P>0.05; Fig. 6A and B). During ER stress, disulfide bond formation is dysregulated, since disulfide bond formation in the ER lumen is highly sensitive to altered redox balance, which in turn exacerbates ROS accumulation and oxidative stress. However, the present study failed to detect significant alterations in the protein expression levels of PDI and Ero1-Lα, which are two major proteins associated with disulfide bond formation, in cells treated with elaidic acid (P>0.05; Fig. 6C and D).
Discussion
In the present study, elaidic acid between 10 and 800 µM was selected to investigate its neurotoxic effects in SH-SY5Y cells in vitro, according to the physiological dose of elaidic acid, which is between 10 and 80 µM (24–29). The results demonstrated that the cell viability was decreased following treatment with elaidic acid in a dose- and time-dependent manner, indicating the neurotoxic effects of elaidic acid. Destruction of MMP is considered an early event in cell apoptosis. The results of the present study demonstrated that various doses of elaidic acid were able to decrease MMP of cells in a dose-dependent manner, indicating that elaidic acid-induced loss of SH-SY5Y cell viability was at least partially attributed to apoptosis. Annexin V/PI double staining also confirmed that 100 µM elaidic acid induced cell apoptosis. Taken together, these data indicated that elaidic acid could induce growth inhibition and apoptosis of SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells, thus suggesting a potential role for elaidic acid in the development of neuronal loss in neurodegenerative diseases.
Morinaga et al (17) and Cassagno et al (18) reported that elaidic acid caused oxidative stress and ER stress in mouse hepatocytes and liver tissues. Neurons are particularly vulnerable to oxidative stress due to their high oxygen consumption. Oxidative stress is known to serve an essential role in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders. ROS can be generated in the mitochondria, ER, plasma membrane and cytoplasm, and induces oxidative stress and ER stress. The present study demonstrated that, at high concentrations, elaidic acid enhanced ROS release, which may lead to cell oxidative damage and ultimately cell apoptosis.
To limit overaccumulation of ROS in the body, enzymatic and non-enzymatic systems exist to maintain ROS balance. Enzymatic antioxidant defenses include SOD and GSH-Px. GSH in the nucleus maintains the redox state of sulfhydryls of critical proteins for DNA repair and gene expression. Under oxidative stress, GSH-Px is a peroxide decomposition enzyme and has a specific catalytic role in the oxide reduction reaction of GSH, whose functions are eliminating peroxide metabolites and protecting cell membrane structure and function. SOD converts ROS to H2O2; therefore, SOD possesses the ability to act as a free radical scavenging enzyme. Lipid peroxidation of unsaturated fatty acids in the cell membrane, which is triggered by free radicals, results in the formation of LPO; therefore, LPO content may reflect free radical content and lipid peroxidation in cells. A reduction in SOD activity, which in turn may trigger the breakdown of LPO to MDA, indicates cell toxicity. The results of the present study demonstrated that, compared with the control group, cells treated with 800 µM elaidic acid exhibited decreased GSH content and SOD and GSH-Px activities, whereas LPO and MDA levels were increased. These results indicated that elaidic acid impaired the ability of SH-SY5Y cells to scavenge ROS and in turn resulted in the formation of LPO and its metabolic product, MDA, thus suggesting the existence of oxidative damage in cells. In addition, elaidic acid caused a decrease in GSH-Px, which contributed to GSSG formation by GSH; therefore, reduced GSH but increased GSSG levels were detected.
Under oxidative stress, Nrf2 translocates into the nucleus of cells, where it binds with the antioxidant response element (30). HO-1 protein expression, which is regulated by Nrf2 (22), may be enhanced in response to oxidative stress (23). In the present study, upregulation of Nrf2 and HO-1 were detected in response to low doses of elaidic acid, which indicated that Nrf2 and HO-1 exerted protective effects against ROS accumulation induced by low concentrations of elaidic acid. However, when SH-SY5Y cells were treated with high concentrations of elaidic acid, HO-1 expression was downregulated, whereas Nrf2 expression was further upregulated, indicating that other mechanisms superseded the regulation of HO-1 by Nrf2 and that the toxic effects of high doses of elaidic acid exhausted the protective capacity of HO-1.
ER serves a pivotal role in the synthesis, folding, post-translational modifications and trafficking of secretory and membrane proteins, calcium storage and release, lipid biogenesis and apoptosis (31,32). Physiological and pathological stimuli may lead to disruption of ER homeostasis and result in an accumulation of misfolded and unfolded proteins; this condition is known as ER stress. ER stress activates three main signaling pathways (ATF6, IRE1 and PERK) to reduce ER stress and restore homeostasis, which is referred to as the UPR. However, if ER stress is excessive and prolonged, these adaptive responses fail to compensate and overactivation of the UPR leads to cell death (33). It has previously been reported that oxidative stress-induced ER stress may be crucial in the regulation of cell apoptosis and may contribute to various degenerative diseases (34). ROS production has been associated with ER stress and activation of the UPR. In addition, some UPR components, such as CHOP, can contribute to oxidative stress (35). Meanwhile, ER stress can cause mitochondrial dysfunction and increase mitochondrial ROS production. In numerous ER stress models, ER stress and oxidative stress accentuate each other in a positive feedback loop, which interferes with cell function and activates proapoptotic signaling (36).
IRE1α is a highly conserved protein in neurons and the major neuronal UPR sensor (37,38). Under normal physiological conditions, IRE1α is activated by dimerization and trans-autophosphorylation upon its release from GRP78 (39,40). The released IRE1α migrates to the nucleus and induces the transcription of ER chaperone proteins, including GRP78 and CHOP (41). ATF4 is a master regulator that has a crucial role in stress adaptation via regulation of the transcription of numerous genes, including CHOP. In the present study, following elaidic acid treatment, the expression levels of GRP78 were upregulated, indicating that ER stress was induced. However, IRE1α expression was not significantly altered, whereas the expression levels of CHOP and ATF4 were upregulated, and then downregulated, following treatment with various doses of elaidic acid, indicating that as the dose of elaidic was increased, the damage to cells was aggravated. These results suggested that the effects of elaidic acid on ER stress were mainly mediated via activation of the GRP78/ATF4/CHOP signaling pathway.
The ER redox state is closely associated with ER protein-folding homeostasis. Disulfide bond formation in the ER lumen is highly sensitive to altered redox balance, where both reducing and oxidizing reagents disrupt protein folding and cause ER stress. During ER stress, dysregulated disulfide bond formation and breakage may result in ROS accumulation and the induction of oxidative stress. Two of the major contributors to disulfide bond formation in the ER are PDI and Ero1 (42). However, the present study did not observe alterations in the expression of PDI and Ero1 in SH-SY5Y cells treated with elaidic acid, indicating that elaidic acid has no effect on the formation of disulfide bonds and protein conformation.
In conclusion, elaidic acid may induce apoptosis of SH-SY5Y cells via the induction of oxidative stress and ER stress, and through activation of the GRP78/ATF4/CHOP signaling pathway. These findings suggested a potential role for dietary TFAs in the development of neurodegenerative disorders, providing the basis for the development of novel strategies for prevention of neurodegenerative disorders. Animal-based in vivo experiments are required to confirm the conclusion of this research in further studies.
