【摘要】 目的  探讨骨形成蛋白-2(bone morphogenetic protein-2,BMP-2)对室管膜前下区(anterior subventricular zone,SVZa)神经干细胞DLX5表达的影响。 方法  体外培养SVZa神经干细胞,用BMP-2及其拮抗剂Noggin诱导SVZa神经干细胞,分别用免疫荧光染色和逆转录-聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)检测DLX5表达变化。 结果  BMP-2组SVZa神经干细胞DLX5蛋白表达和DLX5mRNA表达水平明显高于对照组(P lt;0.05),且该效应能被其拮抗剂Noggin特异性地抑制。 结论  BMP-2是DLX5上游调节基因,可促进SVZa神经干细胞DLX5的表达。
【Abstract】 Objective  To investigate the effect of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2)on expression of DLX5 of neural stem cells in anterior subventricular zone (SVZa). Methods  The neural stem cells of SVZa were separated and cultured in vitro, which were induced by BMP-2 and Noggin.Immunofluorescence staining and RT-PCR were employed to assay the expression of DLX5. Results  The percentages of expression of DLX5 protein and DLX5 mRNA in BMP-2 group were much higher than those in the control group (P lt;0.05). And this induction could be specifically blocked by Noggin. Conclusion  BMP-2 is an upstream gene of DLX5; BMP-2 can promote the expression of DLX5 of the neural stem cells of SVZa.
