Experimental study of DNA methylation modified Shh/Bmp4 signaling pathway in the regulation of enteric nervous system dysplasia in rectal end of rat fetus with anorectal malformations
Objective
To explore the impact of gene methylation in Shh/Bmp4 signaling pathway on the enteric nervous system (ENS) in rectal end of fetal mice with anorectal malformations (ARM).
Methods
A total of 15 Sprague Dawley pregnant rats were randomly divided into 3 groups of ETU, ETU+ 5-azaC and normal.At gestational Day 10, ETU and ETU+ 5-azaC groups received 1% ETU via gavage while ETU+ 5-azaC group had an intraperitoneal injection of 5-azaC (3 mg/kg). At gestational Day 12, cesarean section was performed.The incidence of ARMs, the content of DNA methyltransferase (DNMT1, DNMT3a & DNMT3b), the methylation status of Shh gene promoter region and the expression of key components in Shh/Bmp4 signaling pathway in rectal end of fetal mice were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), immunohistochemistry and Western blot.

a) The incidence of ARMs was 98.3% and 64.9% in ETU and ETU+ 5-azaC groups respectively and there were statistical differences (P<0.0001); b) The expression of DNMTs (DNMT1, DNMT3a & DNMT3b) was significantly higher in rectal tissue of ETU/ETU+ 5-azaC group than that of control group (DNMT1: ETU vs normal, 3.63±0.26 vs 1.00±0.09, P<0.0001; ETU+ 5-azaC vs normal, 2.33±0.27 vs 1.00±0.09, P=0.0003; DNMT3a: ETU vs normal, 3.05±0.28 vs 1.00±0.29, P=0.0003; ETU+ 5-azaC vs normal, 2.20±0.07 vs 1.00±0.29, P<0.0001; DNMT3b: ETU vs normal, 2.62±0.49 vs 1.00±0.26, P=0.0005; ETU+ 5-azaC vs normal, 2.33±0.30 vs 1.00±0.26, P=0.0028). The expression of DNMT1/DNMT3a was significantly higher in rectal tissue of ETU group than that in ETU+ 5-azaC group (DNMT1: 3.63±0.26 vs 2.33±0.27, P=0.0025; DNMT3a: 3.05±0.28 vs 2.20±0.07, P=0.0033) while no significant inter-group difference existed in the expression level of DNMT3b; c) The methylation level of Shh gene promoter was significantly higher in rectal end of ETU group than that in ETU+ 5-azaC/control group (ETU vs ETU+ 5-azaC: 7.13±0.66 vs 5.20±1.21, P=0.0263; ETU vs normal: 7.13±0.66 vs 2.81±0.27, P<0.0001) and ETU+ 5-azaC group was obviously higher than control group (5.20±1.21 vs 2.81±0.27, P=0.0300); d) Shh/Bmp4 expression level was significantly lower in rectal end of ETU/ETU+ 5-azaC group than that of control group (Shh: ETU vs normal, 1.00±0.23 vs 3.81±0.25, P<0.0001; ETU+ 5-azaC vs normal, 2.19±0.60 vs 3.81±0.25, P=0.0121; Bmp4: ETU vs normal, 1.00±0.18 vs 4.91±0.36, P<0.0001; ETU+ 5-azaC vs normal, 2.16±0.23 vs 4.91±0.36, P<0.0001) and Shh/Bmp4 expression level in ETU group was also lower than that in ETU+ 5-azaC group (Shh: 1.00±0.23 vs 2.19±0.60, P=0.011; Bmp4: 1.00±0.18 vs 2.16±0.23, P=0.0019); e) S-100 labeled submucosa and intermuscular nerve plexus in rectal tissue of ETU group significantly decreased compared with that of normal group (P<0.0001) and ETU+ 5-azaC group was significantly different from that in ETU group (P<0.0001). The c-kit labeled Cajal stromal cells and NSE labeled ganglion cells were not obviously expressed in rectum of ETU/ETU+ 5-azaC group.
Conclusions
The methylation status of rectal end in ARM rat model may be changed by interventions.The low methylation level of Shh gene may promote the expression of key components in Shh/Bmp4 signaling pathway and the number of S-100 labeled nerve plexus significantly increases and promotes the development of rectal ENS.
