基于Hill动力学与Michaelis-Menten方程,建立理论模型研究发状分裂相关增强子1(Hairy and enhancer of split 1,Hes1)调控蛋白激酶B(Protein Kinase B,AKT)-鼠双微体2(Murine Double Minute2,MDM2)-抗癌基因p53(p53)-第10号染色体缺失...基于Hill动力学与Michaelis-Menten方程,建立理论模型研究发状分裂相关增强子1(Hairy and enhancer of split 1,Hes1)调控蛋白激酶B(Protein Kinase B,AKT)-鼠双微体2(Murine Double Minute2,MDM2)-抗癌基因p53(p53)-第10号染色体缺失的磷酸酶及张力蛋白同源的基因(Phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten,PTEN)通路的一种物理机制.研究发现,Hes1通过与PTEN结合抑制PTEN表达,并调控AKT信号.表明了Hes1蛋白的合成,以及Hes1与PTEN相互作用调控AKT-MDM2-p53-PTEN通路信号,将会有效地控制细胞结果.Hes1作为AKT-MDM2-p53-PTEN信号通路中上游调节的重要因素,还可以在一定程度上通过影响p53蛋白功能,改变p53对肿瘤的抑制性.理论结果可用于预测Notch通路信号异常诱导的致癌性,并进一步揭示了Notch信号通路影响细胞AKT-MDM2-p53-PTEN通路的激活机制.展开更多

Hg-exposed cell models and PTEN lowexpression models were established in vitro using 293T cells. PTEN gene expression was assessed using qRT-PCR, and Western blotting was used to measure PTEN, AKT, and PI3K protein levels. IL-6 expression was determined by ELISA.Results Combined findings from gene expression microarray analysis, bioinformatics, and population expansion validation indicated significant downregulation of the PTEN gene in the high-concentration Hg exposure group. In the Hg-exposed cell model(25 and 10 μmol/L), a significant decrease in PTEN expression was observed, accompanied by a significant increase in PI3K, AKT, and IL-6 expression.Similarly, a low-expression cell model demonstrated that PTEN gene knockdown led to a significant decrease in PTEN protein expression and a substantial increase in PI3K, AKT, and IL-6 levels.Conclusion This is the first study to report that Hg exposure downregulates the PTEN gene, activates the PI3K/AKT regulatory pathway, and increases the expression of inflammatory factors, ultimately resulting in kidney inflammation.展开更多
