摘要:

Pannexin作为细胞大孔径的膜通道,对诸多信号分子都具有一定的通透性,尤其是ATP分子。既往研究提示Pannexin 1可在中枢神经系统中的星形胶质细胞、小胶质细胞和神经元中表达,但其在周围神经系统中的分布和功能尚不清楚。此次实验首先观察了Pannexin不同亚型在培养小鼠坐骨神经许旺细胞中的表达,结果显示Pannexin 1在许旺细胞中呈高表达。然后以小干扰RNA或(碳烯醇酮和丙磺舒)阻断Pannexin 1的功能后,可显著降低低渗刺激诱导的ATP释放。此外,通过Rho GTPase抑制剂、Rho-siRNA以及微管破坏剂nocodazole或细胞松弛素D干预许旺细胞,证实低渗诱导的ATP释放的过程依赖于细胞内的RhoA及骨架蛋白。结果表明Pannexin 1可通过调节RhoA和细胞骨架排列参与许旺细胞中ATP的释放。实验于2018年8月5日经南通大学动物伦理委员会批准,批准号S20180806-002。

Abstract: Pannexin 1 (Panx 1), as a large-pore membrane channel, is highly permeable to ATP and other signaling molecules. Previous studies have demonstrated the expression of Panx 1 in the nervous system, including astrocytes, microglia, and neurons. However, the distribution and function of Panx 1 in the peripheral nervous system are not clear. Blocking the function of Panx 1 pharmacologically (carbenoxolone and probenecid) or with small interfering RNA targeting pannexins can greatly reduce hypotonicity-induced ATP release. Treatment of Schwann cells with a Ras homolog family member (Rho) GTPase inhibitor and small interfering RNA targeting Rho or cytoskeleton disrupting agents, such as nocodazole or cytochalasin D, revealed that hypotonicity-induced ATP release depended on intracellular RhoA and the cytoskeleton. These findings suggest that Panx 1 participates in ATP release in Schwann cells by regulating RhoA and the cytoskeleton arrangement. This study was approved by the Animal Ethics Committee of Nantong University, China (No. S20180806-002) on August 5, 2018.
