摘要
目的研究肝X受体(LXR)配体TO901317对海马神经元淀粉样前体蛋白(APP)、α-分泌酶(ADAM10)和β-分泌酶(BACE1)mRNA表达的影响及与β-淀粉样肽(Aβ)生成的关系。方法大鼠海马神经元培养至第7天,在饲养液中加入2.0μmol/LTO901317,继续培养48h。应用RT-PCR方法研究海马神经元APP、ADAM10和BACE1等基因的mRNA的表达,放免法检测培养液Aβ含量的变化。结果TO901317降低海马神经元APP和BACE1 mRNA表达(P<0.01),减少培养液Aβ含量(P<0.01),但不影响ADAM10 mRNA表达(P>0.05)。结论TO901317激活LXR,能通过降低APP和BACE1的表达来减少海马神经元Aβ分泌。
Objective To investigate the effects of liver X receptor(LXR) ligand TO901317-LXR on the expression of β-amyloid precursor protein (APP) ,α-secretase (ADAM10) and β-secretase ( BACE1 ) in hippocampal neuron. Methods On the 7 th day ,hippocampal neurons were treated with 2.0 μmol/L TO901317. The expression of APP,ADAM10 and BACE1 mRNA were measured by RT-PCR and the content of Aβ in culture fluid was measured by radioimmunoassay method after cultured 48 h. Results TO901317 decreased the expression of APP and BACE1 mRNA (P 〈 0. 01 ) and the content of Aβ( P 〈 0, 01 )significantly, but had no effect on the expression of ADAM10 mRNA ( P 〉 0. 05 ). Conclusions TO901317 could activate LXR and decrease the secretion of Aβ by decreasing the expression of APP and BACE1 mRNA in hippocampal neuron.
