摘要
目的:研究地塞米松对人类胎盘糖皮质激素受体前代谢酶11β-HSD2活性的调节作用,探讨产前应用地塞米松对妊娠和胎儿的影响,为临床防治早产和合理应用糖皮质激素提供理论依据。方法:利用改良的Kliman法分离提纯胎盘滋养细胞,原代培养3天后药物处理,用放射性酶活性结合薄层层析法(TLC)测定地塞米松对11β-HSD2氧化酶活性的调节作用。结果:体外实验条件下,培养的胎盘滋养层细胞具有11β-HSD2氧化酶活性,且与时间呈依赖关系。地塞米松作用于细胞4h、8h后,胎盘合体滋养细胞11β-HSD2的氧化酶活性明显降低,但孵育24h后,酶活性无明显变化。结论:地塞米松可显著降低胎盘合体滋养细胞11β-HSD2的氧化酶活性,可能是地塞米松、对胎儿有不良影响的重要机制之一,因此产前应用地塞米松必须慎重。
Objective: To study the effect of dexamethasone on glucocorticoids prereceptor metabolizing enzyme 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 (11β-HSD2) in human placental trophoblastic cells, aiming to theoretically elucidate relations between antenatal glucocorticoids and their side effects on pregnancy and fetuses. Methods: Human placentas were obtained from uncomplicated term pregnancy after elective caesarean section, placental trophoblastic cells were isolated using a modified method of Kliman. Trophoblastic cells were cultured in vitro for 3 days and treated with dexamethasone (DEX). The activity of 11β-HSD2 was measured by radiometric conversion assay. Result: The activity of 11β-HSD2 of cultured trophoblastic cells was time-dependent. Treatment of trophoblasts with DEX significantly decreased 11β-HSD2 activity after 4 and 8 hours, but after 24 hours, 11β-HSD2 activity was not comparable between the two groups. Conclusions: In vitro, DEX can significantly suppress 11β-HSD2 oxidase activity, and the down-regulation of 11β-HSD2 oxidase induced by glucocorticoids would represent an important mechanism by which the fetuses might be suffered from exposure to elevated levels of maternal glucocorticoids.
