摘要: 目的 研究TLR3激活对小鼠海马神经元的精神分裂症断裂基因1(DISC1)表达的影响。方法 分离培养C57BL/6J小鼠E18海马神经元,给予1 μg/mL polyI:C或/和100 IU/mL mIFNα处理细胞24 h后,用RT-qPCR、免疫细胞化学和Western blot方法检测DISC1 mRNA和蛋白的表达,并检测p38丝裂原活化蛋白激酶(p38 MAPK)、信号传导和转录激活因子1(STAT1)及糖原合成激酶3β(GSK-3β)的磷酸化。结果 相比对照组,polyI:C组和IFNα组DISC1 mRNA及蛋白水平无明显变化,而共刺激(IFNα+polyI:C)组DISC1表达显著下降(P<0.05)。此外,polyI:C和共刺激组p38 MAPK磷酸化水平增加(P<0.05),且IFNα和共刺激组STAT1磷酸化水平亦显著升高(P<0.05),而GSK-3β磷酸化水平无变化。结论 外源性IFNα协同TLR3激活可部分通过p38 MAPK和JAK/STAT1信号通路抑制DISC1的表达。

Abstract: Objective To explore the effect of Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) activation on the expression of neuronal disrupted-in-schizophrenia 1 (DISC1). Methods C57BL/6J mouse hippocampal neurons were incubated with polyI:C(1 μg/mL) or/and mIFNα(100 IU/mL) for 24 hrs. DISC1 mRNA and protein were detected by quantitive RT-PCR, immuno-cytochemistry staining and Western blot. The expression of STAT1, phospho-STAT1, p38 MAPK, phospho-p38 MAPK, GSK-3β, and phospho-GSK-3β was also detected by Western blot. Results Comparing with control group, the mRNA and protein expression of DISC1 in polyI:C group and IFNα group didn't show any changes, but significantly decreased with the co-stimulation by polyI:C and IFNα (P<0.05). In addition, the phosphorylation of STAT1 was significantly increased in both IFNα group and co-stimulation group(P<0.05) and the phosphorylation of p38 MAPK was elevated in polyI:C group and co-stimulation group (P<0.05).The expression of GSK-3β and phospho-GSK-3β had no changes. Conclusions The combined stimulations of IFNα and TLR3 activation may inhibit the expression of DISC1 potentially through JAK/STAT1 and p38 MAPK signaling pathways.
