摘要:

淀粉样β肽相关乙醇脱氢酶阻断肽(ABAD-DP)可在线粒体内竞争性拮抗淀粉样β肽与ABAD的结合,抑制淀粉样β肽的细胞毒性作用。实验以肽适配子为基础,利用分子克隆技术,将ABAD-DP插入到人硫氧化还原蛋白(TRX)的双硫键中间,构建了能够表达阻断肽适配子TRX1-ABAD-DP-TRX2的融合基因,利用腺相关病毒实现其稳定表达。免疫荧光染色可见转染的融合基因TRX1-ABAD-DP-TRX2及淀粉样β肽的表达均位于NIH-3T3细胞内,提示TRX1-ABAD-DP-TRX2肽适配子具有与细胞内淀粉样β肽结合的能力。细胞形态学及MTT结果显示TRX1-ABAD-DP-TRX2可减轻淀粉样β肽对SH-SY5Y细胞的损伤,提高细胞活力。实验结果证明了将ABAD-DP构建成以人TRX为支架的肽适配子的可能性,且TRX1-ABAD-DP-TRX2对细胞淀粉样β肽的毒性有抑制作用。

Abstract:

Amyloid β peptide binding alcohol dehydrogenase (ABAD) decoy peptide (DP) can competitively antagonize binding of amyloid β peptide to ABAD and inhibit the cytotoxic effects of amyloid β peptide. Based on peptide aptamers, the present study inserted ABAD-DP into the disulfide bond of human thioredoxin (TRX) using molecular cloning technique to construct a fusion gene that can express the TRX1-ABAD-DP-TRX2 aptamer. Moreover, adeno-associated virus was used to allow its stable expression. Immunofluorescent staining revealed the co-expression of the transduced fusion gene TRX1-ABAD-DP-TRX2 and amyloid β peptide in NIH-3T3 cells, indicating that the TRX1-ABAD-DP-TRX2 aptamer can bind amyloid β peptide within cells. In addition, cell morphology and MTT results suggested that TRX1-ABAD-DP-TRX2 attenuated amyloid β peptide-induced SH-SY5Y cell injury and improved cell viability. These findings confirmed the possibility of constructing TRX-based peptide aptamer using ABAD-DP. Moreover, TRX1-ABAD-DP-TRX2 inhibited the cytotoxic effect of amyloid β peptide.
