摘要: 目的 探讨丙泊酚诱导少突胶质细胞凋亡的分子机制。方法 采用随机数字表法将45只7 d SD乳鼠分为对照组(n=15)、脂肪乳剂组(n=15)和50 mg/kg丙泊酚组(n=15)。单次腹腔注射丙泊酚,0.4 mL/只(体积不足者用生理盐水补齐)。对照组和脂肪乳剂组腹腔注射等体积的生理盐水和中长链脂肪乳。丙泊酚腹腔注射麻醉8 h后,采用qPCR和Western blot检测不同组别caspase-3、caspase-8、caspase-9 mRNA和蛋白表达水平;检测NGF mRNA和P-PI3K/P-PAkt表达水平。结果 与对照组相比,丙泊酚组 caspase-3、caspase-8、caspase-9 mRNA 和蛋白表达水平升高(P<0.05);NGF mRNA 和 P-PI3K/P-PAkt 表达水平降低(P<0.05)。结论 丙泊酚通过激活凋亡程序中caspase家族蛋白成员和抑制抗凋亡程序,诱导少突胶质细胞的凋亡。

Abstract: Objective To explore the molecular mechanism of propofol-induced apoptosis in oligodendrocytes. Methods Forty-five neonatal (7 days old) SD rats were randomized into 3 groups (n=15) for a single intraperitoneal injection of saline (control), long chain fat emulsion, or propofol (50 mg/kg). Eight hours after the injection, the rats were examined for mRNA and protein expressions of caspase-3, caspase-8, and caspase-9 in the brain tissues using qPCR and Western blotting, and the expression levels of nerve growth factor (NGF) mRNA and P-PI3K/P-PAkt were also detected. Results Compared with those in the control group, the neonatal rats with propofol injection showed significantly up-regulated mRNA and protein expressions of caspase-3, caspase-8, and caspase-9 in the brain tissue (P<0.05) with significantly down-regulated expressions of NGF mRNA and P-PI3K/P-PAkt (P<0.05). Conclusion Propofol induces apoptosis in oligodendrocytes by activating the caspase family protein members involved in triggering cell apoptosis and inhibiting the anti-apoptosis mechanism.
