摘要:

实验以神经营养因子将PC12细胞诱导转化为神经元样细胞,建立氧糖剥夺模型,应用0,10,20,30,50,100ng/mL外源性激活素A进行干预。MTT染色和Hoechst33324染色显示氧糖剥夺后细胞存活率降低,凋亡率升高,而加入外源性激活素A可明显增加细胞的存活率,且效果呈剂量依赖性。反转录PCR检测结果显示,氧糖剥夺的神经元样细胞激活素A/smads信号转到通路关键位点激活素受体IIA,smad3和smad4 mRNA表达明显增加;而外源激活素A干预的细胞中激活素受体IIA ,smad3和smad4mRNA表达进一步增加,但凋亡关键调控基因caspase-3mRNA表达下降。提示外源性激活素A有对抗细胞凋亡保护神经元免受损伤的作用,其作用途径为激活素A/smads传导通路的激活进而发挥抗神经损伤的作用。

Abstract:

In this study, PC12 cells were induced to differentiate into neuron-like cells using nerve growth factor, and were subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation. Cells were treated with 0, 10, 20, 30, 50, 100 ng/mL exogenous Activin A. The 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide assay and Hoechst 33324 staining showed that the survival percentage of PC12 cells significantly decreased and the rate of apoptosis significantly increased after oxygen-glucose deprivation. Exogenous Activin A significantly increased the survival percentage of PC12 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Reverse transcription-PCR results revealed a significant increase in Activin receptor IIA, Smad3 and Smad4 mRNA levels, which are key sites in the Activin A/Smads signaling pathway, in neuron-like cells subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation, while mRNA expression of the apoptosis-regulation gene caspase-3 decreased. Our experimental findings indicate that exogenous Activin A plays an anti-apoptotic role and protects neurons by means of activating the Activin A/Smads signaling pathway.
