目的研究二肽基肽酶4(dipeptidylpeptidase-d-,DPP-4)抑制剂对胰岛B细胞Bcl-2及Bax蛋白表达的调节作用是否通过增加胰腺组织中1氨基丁酸(^yaminoacidbutyricacid,GABA)含量这个途径实现。方法清洁级sD大鼠50只,随机选取10只为正常对照组。余40只采用高脂喂养联合链脲佐菌素(STZ)的方法诱导成糖尿病模型。随机分为3组:糖尿病对照组、DPP4抑制剂组、拮抗剂组(DPP4抑制+GABA受体拮抗剂)。药物干预6周后检测血糖、血清胰岛素、胰升糖素的水平及胰岛B细胞中GABA、Bcl-2及Bax蛋白的表达情况。结果(1)DPP4抑制剂组与糖尿病对照组相比,血清胰岛素水平升高(P〈0.05),血糖水平降低(P〈0.05),血清胰升糖素水平降低(P〈0.05)。(2)拮抗剂组与DPP4抑制剂组相比,大鼠血清胰岛素水平降低(P〈0.05),血糖水平升高(P〈0.05),血清胰升糖素水平升高(P〈0.05)。(3)DPP--4抑制剂组与糖尿病对照组相比,大鼠胰岛p细胞GABA表达升高(P〈0.05),Bax蛋白表达降低(P〈0.05),Bcl-2蛋白的表达升高(P〈0.05)。(4)拮抗剂组与糖尿病对照组相比,大鼠胰岛B细胞GABA表达升高(P〈0.05),与DPP4抑制剂组相比,大鼠胰岛β细胞Bax蛋白表达升高(P〈0.05),Bcl-2蛋白的表达降低(P〈0.05)。结论DPP4抑制剂能够通过增加胰岛GABA表达来促进胰岛素分泌,减少胰升糖素分泌,增加胰岛β细胞抗凋亡蛋白Bcl-2的表达,降低胰岛β细胞促凋亡蛋白Bax的表达,抑制2型糖尿病大鼠胰岛β细胞的凋亡。
Objective To explore the effects of dipeptidyl peptidase ( DPP-4 ) inhibitor on proteins expression of Bcl-2 and Bax of islet β-cells through increasing the expression of islet Y amino acid butyric acid (GABA). Methods A total of 50 rats of clean grade were studied. Among them, ten rats were randomly selected as normal controls, the remaining forty rats were fed with high-fat diet and then intraperitoneal injection with streptozotocin, the diabetic rats models were then established. Rats were randomly divided into three groups: i. e. diabetic control group, DPP-4 inhibitor group, and antagonist group ( DPP-4 inhibitor and GABA receptor antagonist). Six weeks later, blood glucose, serum insulin, glucagon, and the proteins expression of GABA, Bcl-2, and Bax of islet β-cells were measured. Results ( 1 ) Compared with diabetic control group, serum insulin was increased ( P〈0.05 ) , blood glucose and serum glucagon were decreased in DPP-4 inhibitor group ( P〈0. 05 ). ( 2 ) Compared with DPP-4 inhibitor group, serum insulin was decreased ( P〈0.05 ) , blood glucose and serum glucagon were increased ( P〈0. 05 ) in antagonist group. ( 3 ) Compared with diabetic control group, the expression of GABA was increased (P〈 0.05 ) , the expression of Bcl-2 protein was increased (P 〈 O. 05 ) in pancreatic β-cells in DPP-4 inhibitor group. (4) Compared with diabetic control group, the expression of GABA in pancreatic β-cells was increased in antagonist group (P〈0. 05 ) . Compared with DPP-4 inhibitor group, the expression of Bax protein in pancreatic β-cells was increased in antagonist group(P〈0. 05 ) , while the expression of Bcl-2 protein was decreased (P〈 O. 05 ). Conclusions DPP-4 inhibitor could increase the secretion of insulin, decrease the secretion of glucagon, up-regulate expression of anti-apoptosis protein Bcl-2, and down-regulate expression of apoptosis proteinBax in pancreatic β-cells through increasing the expression of GABA, in
