目的:探究核受体亚家族4A组成员1(nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A member 1,Nr4a1)Nr4a1激动剂胞孢子酮B(cytosporone B,Csn-B)对小鼠噪声暴露后听力损失的治疗作用。方法:采用双氧水刺激HEI-OC1毛细胞系的方法构建氧化应激细胞...目的:探究核受体亚家族4A组成员1(nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A member 1,Nr4a1)Nr4a1激动剂胞孢子酮B(cytosporone B,Csn-B)对小鼠噪声暴露后听力损失的治疗作用。方法:采用双氧水刺激HEI-OC1毛细胞系的方法构建氧化应激细胞模型;通过实时荧光定量PCR(quantitative real-time PCR,q PCR)检测细胞中Nr4a1的mRNA表达水平;分别通过细胞计数试剂盒(cell counting kit-8,CCK8)及流式细胞术的方法检测细胞活力和细胞凋亡水平以评估Csn-B预处理后经双氧水刺激的细胞状态。构建小鼠噪声性听力损失模型,运用qPCR和免疫荧光技术检测噪声暴露后Nr4a1在小鼠耳蜗中的表达;通过检测听性脑干反应(auditory brainstem response,ABR)评估噪声暴露后以及Csn-B连续治疗13 d后小鼠听力情况。结果:双氧水刺激后HEI-OC1毛细胞中Nr4a1表达上升,细胞活力显著下降,凋亡水平显著升高;Csn-B预处理HEI-OC1毛细胞经双氧水刺激,细胞活力显著高于对照组而凋亡水平则显著低于对照组。在体研究结果显示,噪声暴露后小鼠听力显著降低,Nr4a1在小鼠耳蜗中的表达水平显著升高。噪声暴露后经Csn-B治疗小鼠听力得到改善,主要表现为Click-ABR以及Tone Burst-ABR(4000、8000Hz处)阈值下降。结论:Nr4a1激动剂Csn-B增强内耳毛细胞对氧化应激损伤的抵御能力,部分改善噪声暴露后的小鼠听力。展开更多
