摘要
目的:探讨甘氨酸受体在心脏保护中的作用及甘氨酸受体的性质。方法:利用原代培养的SD大鼠乳鼠心肌细胞建立心肌缺氧/复氧(A/R)模型,并用甘氨酸受体阻断法和消除细胞外氯离子法,测定各组培养心肌细胞内超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性、丙二醛(MDA)及一氧化氮(NO)的含量、钙离子浓度和心肌细胞凋亡率。结果:A/R组用甘氨酸处理后SOD活性、NO含量升高,MDA含量、[Ca2+]i、细胞凋亡率降低,与A/R组比较显著差异。分别用甘氨酸受体阻断剂士的宁和消除细胞外氯离子处理后,甘氨酸的上述保护作用明显减弱,与A/R组比较无显著差异。结论:甘氨酸能抑制缺氧/复氧乳鼠心肌细胞的自由基生成、抑制钙超载,减轻心肌细胞的凋亡并增加细胞内SOD等保护蛋白和NO的合成而发挥细胞保护作用。甘氨酸的细胞保护作用可能是通过甘氨酸受体发挥作用的,甘氨酸受体的本质可能是甘氨酸门控氯离子通道。
AIM: To investigate whether glycine receptor is involved in the protection of glycine against anoxia/reoxygenation injury in cardiomyocytes by detecting oxygen free radical metabolism, apoptosis and intracellular calcium overload. METHODS: The neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were cultured and exposed to anoxia and reoxygenation (A/R) in the presence of glycine receptor antagonist, glycine or in free chloride buffer. The superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, the contents of malondialdehyde (MDA) and nitric oxide ( NO), the intracellular free calcium concentration and the apoptotic rate in the cardiomyocytes were determined. RESULTS: SOD activity and NO content in cardiomyocytes were lower, but MDA content, intracellular free calcium concentration and apoptotic rate in cardiomyocytes were higher in A/R group than those in control. Pretreatment with glycine inhibited the above changes caused by A/R, which was reversed by strychnine treatment and in the free chloride medium. CONCLUSIONS: Glycine inhibits free radical production, attenuates calcium overload, decreases apoptotic rate and increases SOD activity and NO release in cardiomyocytes exposed to A/R. These findings suggest that glycine exerts a protective effect against A/R injury via glycine receptor and glycine protects the neonatal rat cardiomycytes from A/R -induced injury in a chloride -dependent manner.
