摘要
目的探讨1,5-二咖啡酰奎宁酸(1,5-diCQA)是否通过激活Nrf2而减轻1-甲基-4-苯基吡啶离子(MPP+)所致的PC12细胞损伤,并对可能的信号通路进行研究。方法采用MPP+处理具有多巴胺(DA)能神经元特性的PC12细胞作为帕金森病(PD)的体外模型。实验分为正常对照组、MPP+处理组、1,5-diCQA预处理+MPP+处理组,为了观察1,5-diCQA预处理的浓度-效应关系,将1,5-diCQA的浓度设为10、20、50、100μmol/L。用CCK8法测定各组细胞存活率,酶标仪检测细胞谷胱甘肽(GSH)水平和活性氧族(ROS)水平,Western blot检测各组细胞的Nrf2蛋白水平。进一步采用siRNA转染沉默Nrf2,加入MAPK家族一系列激酶抑制剂后再检测上述相关指标。结果 MPP+(250mmol/L)处理PC12细胞24h后,与正常对照组相比,细胞存活率下降,GSH耗竭,ROS生成增多,说明PD细胞模型建立成功。不同浓度的1,5-diCQA预处理可以减轻MPP+导致的细胞损伤,且在一定范围内具有量效关系;不同浓度的1,5-diCQA预处理可以明显上调Nrf2蛋白的水平。沉默Nrf2后,1,5-diCQA预处理对MPP+诱导损伤的PC12细胞的保护作用消失,细胞存活率未能回升[MPP+组vs.MPP++1,5-diCQA组:(19.47±1.65)%vs.(21.13±2.85)%,P=0.352 6],GSH水平在Nrf2敲除的PC12细胞中明显下降[NT siRNA组vs.Nrf2siRNA组:(15.05±1.71)nmol/mgprotein vs.(4.31±0.83)nmol/mg protein,P<0.001],且1,5-diCQA预处理对GSH耗竭的逆转效应也消失。对MAPK激酶家族的一系列激酶进行信号通路筛选发现,Erk激酶参与了1,5-diCQA通过激活Nrf2而减轻MPP+诱导的PC12细胞损伤这一过程。结论 1,5-diCQA可浓度依赖性地减轻MPP+诱导的PC12氧化应激损伤。这种保护作用是通过激活Erk激酶,进而激活Nrf2,然后上调细胞内源性抗氧化系统来实现的。
Objective To explore the protective mechanisms of l,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid(1,5-diCQA)preconditioning on MPP+-induced injury on PC12 cells.Methods Rat pheochromocytoma(PC12)cells were treated with MPP+to establish a cell model of Parkinson’s disease and then randomly divided into 3groups:1,5-diCQA pretreatment+MPP+group,MPP+group and control group.The viability of cells was determined by CCK-8assay.Cellular glutathione(GSH)and reactive oxygen species(ROS)levels were measured by spectrophotometry.The expression of Nrf2 protein was detected by Western blot.SiRNA transfection was performed to silence Nrf2.After addition of a series of MAPK family kinase inhibitors,the indexes mentioned above were detected again.Results Twenty-four h after MPP+treatment,the cell viability was significantly decreased,the GSH level depleted and ROS markedly generated,which suggested the successful establishment of the PD cell model of Parkinson’s disease.Pretreatment with 1,5-diCQA could alleviate the MPP+-induced cell damage and the effect was in a dose-dependant manner.The protective effect of 1,5-diCQA pretreatment was abolished in Nrf2-knockdown PC12 cells;the cell viability failed to increase in MPP++1,5-diCQA group[MPP+group vs.MPP++1,5-diCQA group,(19.47 ± 1.65)% vs.(21.13 ± 2.85)%,P=0.352 6];the GSH level was significantly decreased in Nrf2-knockdown PC12 cells[negative siRNA group vs.Nrf2siRNA group,(15.05±1.71)nmol/mg protein vs.(4.31±0.83)nmol/mg protein,P〈0.01];the reverse effect of 1,5-diCQA pretreatment on GSH depletion was blocked in Nrf2-knockdown PC12 cells.The Erk kinase signaling was found to be involved in the protective effect of 1,5-diCQA against the MPP +-induced cell damage.Conclusion 1,5-diCQA may dose-dependently alleviate the MPP +-induced oxidative stress injury by activating ERK signaling pathway and upregulating Nrf2 in the PC12 cells.
