摘要
目的:通过制备铅中毒模型诱导原代培养神经元凋亡来探讨neuregulin1(NRG1)的抗神经元凋亡作用及机制。方法:将NRG1和(或)PI3K抑制剂Wortmannin(10μmol·L-1)加入到原代培养神经元的培养基中进行预孵育4 h,然后用醋酸铅刺激原代神经元4 h,观察NRG1的抗凋亡作用及机制。用Caspase3活力变化来检测神经元内凋亡的表达水平,同时,Western blot检测NRG1β1和p-Akt的水平。结果:在用铅刺激原代神经元后,细胞凋亡明显,表现为Caspase-3活力显著增加(P<0.05)。NRG1能抑制铅染毒引起的Caspase-3活力增加(P<0.05)。NRG1可上调p-Akt的表达,应用PI3K/Akt的抑制剂Wortmannin后,Wortmannin能拮抗NRG1的升高p-Akt及抗凋亡作用(P<0.05)。结论:NRG1显著抵抗铅诱导的神经元凋亡,PI3K/Akt途径参与介导NRG1的抗神经元凋亡作用。
ORJECTIVE To investigate the neuroprotection effect of NRG1 against PbAC-induced apoptosis in primary cul- ture neurons. METHODS The primary culture neurons were exposed to NRG1 and (or) PI3K inhibitor Wortmannin for 4 h, respectively. PbAC was then added to the cultures, which stimulated the neurons for 4 h to induce apoptosis. The anti-apoptosis effect of NRG1 and its mechanism were investigated. The expression of apoptosis was measured by Caspase 3 activity. Mean- while,the protein expressions of NRGlβ1 and p-Akt were tested by western blot. RESULTS The Caspase 3 activity increased significantly after PbAC treatment in primary culture neurons(P〈0. 05). Pretreatment of NRG1 prevented PbAC-induced ap- optosis in primary culture neurons(P〈0. 05). Treatment of NRG1 significantly increased the p-Akt and decreased the Caspase 3 activity,and the effects were antagonized by pretreatment with the Pi3K/Akt inhibitor, Wortmannin(P〈0. 05). CONCLU- SION The findings suggest that NRG1 may have anti-apoptosis effect and that the PBK/Akt signaling pathway may mediate the neuroprotection of NRG1 against the apoptosis induced by PbAC.
