摘要: 目的 观察香烟烟雾提取物(CSE)是否通过不典型蛋白激酶Cι/ζ (aPKCι/ζ) -红系衍生的核因子相关因子2(NRF2)信号通路调控大鼠气道上皮细胞γ-谷氨酰半胱氨酸合成酶(γ-GCS)。方法 用Western blot法检测γ-GCS、NRF2和p-aPKCι/ζ蛋白,免疫细胞化学法观察γ-GCS蛋白表达,反转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)法检测γ-GCS mRNA,免疫荧光法检测NRF2蛋白。结果 NRF2蛋白在CSE 3h组主要表达在胞核,其胞核蛋白高表达。p-aPKCι/ζ蛋白在CSE 3h组显著高于对照组(P<0.05)。γ-GCS蛋白及其mRNA在CSE 3h组较对照组显著增强(P<0.05)。预先加入aPKCι/ζ抑制剂RO813220,NRF2胞质蛋白表达增强,p-aPKCι/ζ蛋白、γ-GCS蛋白及其mRNA均明显低于CSE 3h组(均P <0.05)。相关性分析显示NRF2与γ-GCS、p-aPKCι/ζ呈正相关,p-aPKCι/ζ与NRF2、γ-GCS呈正相关(P<0.05)。结论 CSE可能通过aPKCι/ζ-NRF2调节γ-GCS表达。

Abstract: Objective To observe the effect of the signal pathway of aPKCι/ζ (antypical protein kinase Cι/ζ)-NRF2 (nuclear factor-E2 related factor) on γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase(γ-GCS)of the bronchial epithelial cells of rats after exposure to cigarette smoke extracts(CSE). Methods γ-GCS, NRF2 and p-aPKCι/ζ proteins were semi-quantified by Western blot. The expression of γ-GCS protein was assessed by immunocytochemistry. γ-GCS mRNA expression were detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). NRF2 protein was observed by immunofluorescence. Results NRF2 protein mainly expressed in the nucleus, NRF2 protein of nucleus strongly expressed after exposure to CSE for 3 hours. p-aPKCι/ζ protein significantly enhanced in CSE 3h group than the control group(P<0.05). γ-GCS protein and mRNA were significantly increased in CSE 3h group as compared to the control group(P<0.05).Pretreated with aPKCι/ζ inhibitor RO318220, NRF2 protein of cytoplasm strongly expressed, p-aPKCι/ζ protein, γ-GCS protein and mRNA were significantly decreased than CSE3h group(P<0.05). The correlation analysis demonstrated that there were a positive correlation between NRF2 and γ-GCS and p- aPKCι/ζ, and between p-aPKCι/ζ and NRF2 and γ-GCS(P<0.05). Conclusion CSE might upregulate γ-GCS expression through aPKCι/ζ -NRF2 signaling pathway in the bronchial epithelial cells of rats.
