目的 探讨JNK/p38MAPK在p淀粉样蛋白多肽片段25-35(Aβ25-35)诱导的阿尔茨海默病(AD)样胎鼠皮层神经元Tau蛋白过度磷酸化中的作用。方法 应用蛋白免疫印迹和免疫细胞化学染色的方法,观察Tau蛋白磷酸化和JNK/p38丝裂原活化的蛋白激酶(JNK/p38MAPK)的表达情况。结果凝聚态Aβ25-35(20μmol/L)作用于皮层神经元12h,Tau蛋白sep396、Ser199/202、Thr205位点的磷酸化水平明显增高,同时JNK/p38MAPK的总量及其活性形式.磷酸化JNK/p38MAPK的蛋白表达水平也增加。结论 Aβ25-35可通过激活JNK/p38MAPK使Tau蛋白的磷酸化水平增高。
Objective To investigate the effect and the molecular mechanism of aggregated beta-amyloid peptide 25-35 (Aβ25-35) on the level of Tau protein phosphorylation in rat embryo cortical neurons. Methods Western blotting and immunocytochemical stain were performed to observe the Tau protein phosphorylation and the expression of JNK/p38 MAPK. Results The level of Tau protein phosphorylation in the sites of Ser396 , Ser199/202 and Thr205 increased after Aβ25-35 of 20μmol/L was exposed to cortical neurons, meanwhile the level of JNK/p38 MAPK also increased after treatment with Aβ25-35 for 12 hours. Pretreatment with specific inhibitor of JNK/p38 MAPK markedly attenuated Tau protein hyperphosphorylation and the expression of JNK/p38 MAPK. Conclusion JNK/p38 MAPK activated by Aβ25-35 may lead to Tau phosphorylafion.
