摘要
目的:探讨第Ⅲ组代谢型谷氨酸受体(mGluRs)拮抗Aβ31-35诱导神经元凋亡的机制.方法:原代培养的大鼠额叶皮层神经元,加入第Ⅲ组mGluRs激动剂L-SOP或(R,S)-PPG,利用流式细胞仪和caspase酶系活性检测观察对Aβ31-35诱导神经元凋亡的影响.结果:第Ⅲ组mGluRs激动剂L-SOP或(R,S)-PPG明显抑制Aβ31-35引起的凋亡,其caspase-3活性降低,同时参与内源性凋亡的caspase-9和外源性凋亡的caspase-8活性均明显降低.结论:第Ⅲ组mGluRs激动剂通过内、外两条途径抑制Aβ31-35诱导的神经元凋亡.
AIM:To determine the mechanisms of neuroprotection by group III metabotropic glutamate receptors(mGluRs) activation against apoptosis induced by β-amyloid peptide 31-35(Aβ31-35) in frontal lobe cortical neurons.METHODS:The cerebral cortical neurons were incubated with Aβ31-35(25 μmol/L) or coapplied with group III mGluRs agonist of L-SOP or(R,S)-PPG(100 μmol/L) for 24 h.The apoptosis of the cells was analyzed by flow cytometry and caspases activity.RESULTS:L-SOP or(R,S)-PPG(100 μmol/L) significantly inhibited the neuron apoptosis and decreased caepase-3,-8 and-9 in the Aβ31-35 treated neurons.CONCLUSION:The results described in the present study suggested that activation of group III mGluRs protected neurons from Aβ31-35-induced apoptosis by blocking the caspase-dependent intrinsic and extrinsic apoptotic pathways.
