甘氨酸受体α_1亚基在乳鼠心肌细胞的表达及损害性因素对其表达的影响

目的:研究甘氨酸受体α1亚基(GlyRα1)在乳鼠心肌细胞中的表达以及脂多糖(LPS)、缺氧/复氧(H/R)、异丙肾上腺素(ISO)和高糖(HG)对其表达的影响。方法:体外培养乳鼠心肌细胞,Western blotting方法检测心肌细胞上GlyRα1的表达;心肌细胞分别用LPS、H/R、ISO以及HG处理24 h,采用CCK-8试剂检测细胞活力,Western blotting方法检测心肌细胞上GlyRα1的表达。结果:Western blotting方法检测到乳鼠心肌细胞上GlyRα1的表达;LPS(20 mg/L)、ISO(100μmol/L)以及HG(25mmol/L)处理心肌细胞24 h与心肌细胞H/R 3 h对心肌细胞存活率无明显影响;LPS组、H/R 3 h组以及ISO组心肌细胞上GlyRα1表达均高于对照组(P0.01),而HG组心肌细胞上GlyRα1表达低于对照组(P0.01)。结论:乳鼠心肌细胞上存在GlyRα1,并且一定浓度的LPS、ISO与一定时间的H/R均可上调乳鼠心肌细胞GlyRα1的表达,而HG可下调乳鼠心肌细胞GlyRα1的表达。

Effects of several harmful factors on expression of glycine receptor α1 subunit in neonatal rat myocardial cells

AIM: To study the expression of glycine receptor α₁ subunit in neonatal rat myocardial cells and to investigate the effect of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), hypoxia/reoxygenation, isoproterenol (ISO) and high concentration of glucose (HG) on the expression of glycine receptor α₁ subunit in the neonatal rat myocardial cells. METHODS: Neonatal rat myocardial cells were cultured in vitro. The expression of glycine receptor α₁ subunit was detected by Western blotting. The neonatal rat myocardial cells were treated with LPS (20 mg/L), ISO (100μmol/L) or high concentration of glucose (25 mmol/L) for 24 h, or were exposed to hypoxia for 3 h followed by reoxygenation for 3 h. Subsequently, the cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay, and the expression of glycine receptor α₁ subunit was determined by Western blotting. RESULTS: The expression of glycine receptor α₁ subunit in the neonatal rat myocardial cells was positively detectable by Western blotting. Compared with control group, no significant difference of the cell viability (P>0.05) in LPS group, ISO group, hypoxia/reoxygenation group and HG group was observed. The expression of glycine receptor α₁ subunit was increased (P<0.01) in LPS group, ISO group and hypoxia/reoxygenatio group, but decreased (P<0.01) in HG group. CONCLUSION: Glycine receptor α₁ subunit exists in the neonatal rat myocardial cells. A certain concentration of LPS or ISO, or hypoxia/reoxygenation for a certain period upregulate the expression of glycine receptor α₁ subunit, but HG downregulates the expression of glycine receptor α₁ subunit in cultured neonatal rat myocardial cells.
