摘要:

活化NLRP3炎症小体可能通过氧化应激和神经源性炎症参与阿尔茨海默病的发病,信号转导和转录激活因子3基因低表达在一定程度上可促进神经退行性疾病的发生。为验证实验设计程序:(1)SHSY5Y细胞加入1 mM H2O2进行氧化应激损伤,检验人细胞特异性信号转导和转录激活因子3-shRNA沉默信号转导和转录激活因子3的表达,同时以Ca2+螯合剂BAPATA-AM(0.1mM)预处理30min的细胞作为对照;(2)以Western blot分析caspase-1、NLRP3和信号转导和转录激活因子3的表达,以ELISA分析培养基中白细胞介素1β水平,以流式细胞仪计算凋亡细胞数量;(3)发现过氧化氢诱导可促进NLRP3炎性小体活化,降低信号转导和转录激活因子3丝氨酸727的磷酸化;(4)BAPATA-AM预处理可消除过氧化氢诱导的NLRP3炎症小体活化、caspase-1表达、白细胞介素1β表达和细胞凋亡,而抑制信号转导和转录激活因子3基因表达BAPATA-AM的作用失效;(5)上述结果数据表明,信号转导和转录激活因子3表达下调可能会增强NLRP3介导的氧化应激作用,这可能不依赖于Ca2+信号通路。

Abstract:

Activated nucleotide binding to the oligonucleotide receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is possibly involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease through oxidative stress and neurogenic inflammation. Low expression of the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) gene may promote the occurrence of neurodegenerative diseases to some extent. To clarify the roles of the NLRP3 inflammasome and STAT3 expression in oxidative stress, (1) SHSY5Y cells were incubated with 1 mM H2O2 to induce oxidative stress injury, and the expression of human-cell-specific signal transduction, STAT3-shRNA silencing signal transduction and STAT3 were detected. Cells were pretreated with Ca2+ chelator BAPATA-AM (0.1 mM) for 30 minutes as a control. (2) Western blot assay was used to analyze the expression of caspase-1, NLRP3, signal transduction and STAT3. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to analyze interleukin-1β levels. Flow cytometry was carried out to calculate the number of apoptotic cells. We found that H2O2 treatment activated NLRP3 inflammasomes and decreased phosphorylation of signal transduction and STAT3 serine 727. BAPTA-AM pretreatment abolished the H2O2-induced activation of NLRP3 inflammasomes, caspase-1 expression, interleukin-1β expression and apoptosis in SHSY5Y cells, and had no effect in cells with downregulated STAT3 expression by RNAi. The findings suggest that downregulation of signal transduction and STAT3 expression may enhance the oxidative stress mediated by NLRP3, which may not depend on the Ca2+ signaling pathway.
