摘要:

少突胶质前体细胞可分化为成熟的髓鞘形成少突胶质细胞以再髓鞘化受损的轴突,因此少突胶质前体细胞死亡导致的髓鞘再形成失败可导致严重的神经损伤。铁死亡是由脂质过氧化诱导的膜破裂引起的一种铁依赖性调节性细胞死亡,在缺血性脑卒中中起着重要的作用。然而,有关少突胶质前体细胞铁死亡的研究很少。此次实验首先分析了来自GEO数据库的转录组测序数据,揭示了铁死亡在脑缺血后少突胶质前体细胞死亡和髓鞘损伤中的作用。继而生物信息学分析结果表明,周脂素2是一种脂质储存蛋白,也是缺氧敏感脂滴积聚的标志物,可作为参与少突胶质前体细胞铁死亡的重要因素。而后实验建立了脑缺血再灌注小鼠模型,发现脑缺血后髓鞘明显受损,且梗死周围出现少突胶质前体细胞的死亡和脂质过氧化水平的升高。而铁死亡抑制剂Ferrostatin-1可逆转少突胶质前体细胞死亡以及随后的髓鞘损伤。实验还发现小鼠脑梗死周围与少突胶质前体细胞共定位的周脂素2水平增加。而敲除周脂素2基因可抑制脱髓鞘,改善神经功能。因此该研究提示靶向PLIN2调控少突胶质前体细胞铁死亡可能是脑缺血后髓鞘损伤的潜在治疗策略。

Abstract: Differentiation of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells into mature myelin-forming oligodendrocytes contributes to remyelination. Failure of remyelination due to oligodendrocyte progenitor cell death can result in severe nerve damage. Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death caused by membrane rupture induced by lipid peroxidation, and plays an important role in the pathological process of ischemic stroke. However, there are few studies on oligodendrocyte progenitor cell ferroptosis. We analyzed transcriptome sequencing data from GEO databases and identified a role of ferroptosis in oligodendrocyte progenitor cell death and myelin injury after cerebral ischemia. Bioinformatics analysis suggested that perilipin-2 (PLIN2) was involved in oligodendrocyte progenitor cell ferroptosis. PLIN2 is a lipid storage protein and a marker of hypoxia-sensitive lipid droplet accumulation. For further investigation, we established a mouse model of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion. We found significant myelin damage after cerebral ischemia, as well as oligodendrocyte progenitor cell death and increased lipid peroxidation levels around the infarct area. The ferroptosis inhibitor, ferrostatin-1, rescued oligodendrocyte progenitor cell death and subsequent myelin injury. We also found increased PLIN2 levels in the peri-infarct area that co-localized with oligodendrocyte progenitor cells. Plin2 knockdown rescued demyelination and improved neurological deficits. Our findings suggest that targeting PLIN2 to regulate oligodendrocyte progenitor cell ferroptosis may be a potential therapeutic strategy for rescuing myelin damage after cerebral ischemia.
