【摘要】 目的  探讨佛波酯激活的蛋白激酶C与扭转蛋白A在亚细胞成分中的表达之间的关系。 方法  采用免疫荧光法观察扭转蛋白A在原代培养的神经元和小鼠胚胎成纤维细胞(NIH 3T3细胞)中的分布。运用蛋白质印迹法分析蛋白激酶C和扭转蛋白A在细亚细胞成分中的表达。 结果  扭转蛋白A在NIH 3T3细胞中的表达类似于神经元。扭转蛋白A在细胞质溶质、膜成分中均有分布。佛波酯活化蛋白激酶C后并不引起扭转蛋白A在细胞质成分和膜成分中表达含量的变化。 结论  扭转蛋白A可能是膜相关蛋白,细胞氧化应激中扭转蛋白A表达上调和重分布变化不是由佛波酯诱导的蛋白激酶C活化途径来实现的。鉴于扭转蛋白A表达上调具有潜在的治疗原发性早发扭转性肌张力障碍的前景,影响其分布和表达的分子机制需要进一步研究。
【Abstract】 Objective  To investigate the relationship between the phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) activated protein kinase C (PKC) and the subcellular expression of TorsinA protein. Methods  The expression of TorsinA in the primary cultured neurons and the NIH 3T3 cells was detected by immunofluorescence. The expression of PKC and TorsinA in subcellular fraction was analyzed by the western blotting. Results  The expression pattern of TorsinA in NIH 3T3 cells was similar to neuron. PMA, an activator of PKC, did not promote the up-expression of TorsinA or redistribution in the subcellular fraction of NIH 3T3 cells. Conclusions  TorsinA may be a membrane-associated protein. The up-regulation and redistribution of TorsinA is not caused by the pathway of the PMA activating PKC after cells insulted by oxidative stress. We should pay more attention on the mechanisms of the expression of TorsinA protein for the potential therapies to early-onset primary torsion dystonia (DYT1).
