摘要： 目的 探讨褪黑素（MT）对2，2'，4，4'-四溴联苯醚（PBDE-47）所致大鼠肾上腺髓质嗜铬细胞瘤PC12细胞异常自噬与凋亡的影响。方法 通过一系列浓度梯度 MT（12.5、25、50、100、200 μmol/L）预处理 PC12 细胞 2 h 后，并联合浓度为 20 μmol/L的PBDE-47染毒细胞24 h，采用细胞计数试剂盒（CCK8）检测细胞存活率，筛选25 μmol/L MT用于后续实验。实验分组为：溶剂对照组（0.5‰ DMSO）、20 μmol/L PBDE-47处理组、20 μmol/L PBDE-47+25 μmol/L MT处理组、25 μmol/L MT处理组。采用免疫荧光技术检测自噬体标志蛋白微管相关蛋白1轻链3（LC3）阳性着色情况；采用Western blot技术检测自噬关键蛋白自噬相关蛋白7（ATG7）、自噬选择性底物p62、LC3-II水平，以及凋亡相关蛋白活化型含半胱氨酸的天冬氨酸-3（active caspase-3）和剪切型多（ADP-核糖）聚合酶（cleaved PARP）水平。结果 CCK8结果表明，PBDE-47处理组细胞活力相比对照组有所下降（P=0.001）；与PBDE-47处理组相比，PBDE-47+25 μmol/L MT处理组细胞存活率上升且在80%以上，差异均有统计学意义（P=0.023）。与对照组相比，PBDE-47处理后PC12细胞LC3蛋白阳性着色增强；此外，PBDE-47处理组PC12细胞ATG7蛋白水平下降，p62、LC3-II、active caspase-3、cleaved PARP蛋白水平上升，差异均有统计学意义（P 均<0.001）。与PBDE-47处理组相比，PBDE-47+MT处理组LC3蛋白阳性着色减弱；此外，PBDE-47+MT处理组ATG7蛋白水平上升（P=0.034），p62蛋白水平下降（P=0.048），LC3-II蛋白水平下降（P=0.018），active caspase-3蛋白水平下降（P<0.001），cleaved PARP蛋白水平下降（P=0.032）。结论 PBDE-47可通过诱导PC12细胞自噬损伤引起自噬体蓄积，并能促进细胞凋亡，从而降低细胞存活；褪黑素可改善PBDE-47所致PC12细胞异常自噬与凋亡，进而提高细胞存活。

Abstract: Objective To explore the effect of melatonin (MT) on 2,2',4,4'-tetrabromodiphenylether (PBDE-47)-induced abnormal autophagy and apoptosis in rat adrenal medullary pheochromocytoma PC12 cells. Methods PC12 cells were pretreated with a concentration gradient (12.5, 25, 50, 100, and 200 μmol/L) of melatonin for 2 h before exposure to 20 μmol/L PBDE-47 for 24 h to determine the optimal concentration of melatonin for cell treatment. In subsequent experiments, PC12 cells were treated with 0.5‰ DMSO (control group), 20 μmol/L PBDE-47, 25 μmol/L melatonin, or both PBDE-47 and melatonin. Immuno-fluorescence assay was used to detect the positive staining of microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3; a marker protein of autophagy); Western blotting was performed to determine the expression levels of the key autophagic proteins including autophagy-related protein 7 (ATG7), LC3-II and autophagy substrate p62, and the key apoptotic proteins including active cysteine-containing aspartate specific protease-3 (active caspase-3) and cleaved poly(ADP ribose) polymerase (cleaved PARP). Results PBDE-47 treatment significantly reduced the viability of PC12 cells (P=0.001), but pretreatment with 25 μmol/L melatonin maintained a cell viability over 80% following exposure to PBDE-47 (P=0.023). PBDE-47-treated PC12 cells showed obviously enhanced immunofluorescent staining of LC3 protein, a significantly decreased expression of ATG7 and increased expression levels of p62, LC3-II, active caspase-3 and cleaved PARP (P<0.001). The cells treated with both PBDE-47 and melatonin showed obviously reduced staining of LC3 protein with a signficantly increased expression level of ATG7 (P=0.034) and decreased expressions of p62 (P=0.048), LC3-II (P=0.018), active caspase-3 (P<0.001) and cleaved PARP (P=0.032). Conclusion PBDE-47 exposure impairs autophagy to cause autophagosome accumulation and promote apoptosis of PC12 cells. Melatonin can improve PBDE-47-induced abnormal autophagy and apoptosis and thus promote the survival of PC12 cells
