摘要
目的:研究骨关节炎(OA)大鼠模型软骨组织中脂酰肌醇3激酶(phosphatidylinositol 3kinase,PI3K)/蛋白激酶B(protein kinase B,Akt)信号通路功能与细胞凋亡的相关性。方法:选择清洁级雄性Wistar大鼠作为实验动物,并随机分为OA模型组和对照组;采用木瓜蛋白酶溶液与L-半胱氨酸关节腔内注射的方式建立OA模型。造模后第4周和第8周时,测定关节软骨中PI3K/AKT信号分子、炎症介质、细胞凋亡标志分子、细胞自噬标志分子的表达量。结果:OA组大鼠关节软骨组织中p-PI3K、pAKT的表达量显著低于对照组;OA组大鼠关节软骨组织中白介素(IL)-1β、IL-6、IL-17、IL-18、eIF4E、Bax、Caspase-3、mTOR、Beclin1、Atg5、Atg7的表达量显著高于对照组,且与p-PI3K、p-AKT的表达量呈负相关,Bcl-2的表达量显著低于对照组且与p-PI3K、p-AKT的表达量呈正相关。结论:骨关节炎大鼠模型软骨组织中PI3K/AKT信号通路功能的抑制能够促进软骨细胞的凋亡和自噬。
Objective:To study the relationship between PI3K/AKT signaling pathway and apoptosis in cartilage tissue of rats with osteoarthritis(OA).Methods:The clean male Wistar rats were selected as experimental animals and randomly divided into OA model group and control group.The OA model was established by intra-articular injection of papain solution and L-cysteine.Fourth weeks and eighth weeks after model establishment,the expression of PI3K/AKT signaling molecules,inflammatory mediators,apoptosis marker molecules and autophagy marker molecules in articular cartilage were determined.Results:p-PI3 Kand p-AKT expression in articular cartilage of OA group were significantly lower than those of control group;IL-1β,IL-6,IL-17,IL-18,eIF4 E,Bax,Caspase-3,mTOR,Beclin1,Atg5 and Atg7expression in articular cartilage of OA group were significantly higher than those of control group and negatively correlated with p-PI3 Kand p-AKT expression while Bcl-2expression in articular cartilage of OA group was significantly lower than that of control group and positively correlated with p-PI3 Kand p-AKT expression.Conclusions:The inhibition of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in cartilage tissue of OA rat model can promote chondrocyte apoptosis and autophagy.
