目的探讨17β-雌二醇对大鼠结肠平滑肌细胞(SMC)表达小电导钙激活钾通道3(SK3)的影响及其机制。方法酶解法分离SD雄性成年大鼠结肠SMC,进行原代培养。细胞免疫荧光双标观察SK3与α-肌动蛋白共表达。取2~3代SMC,不同浓度和不同时间17B-雌二醇刺激后、以反转录实时荧光定量(qRT)-PCR、Western印迹检测SMC表达SK3情况;观察雌激素受体阻断剂ICI182780在17β-雌二醇影响SK3表达中的作用及牛血清白蛋白结合的17β-雌二醇(BSA—E2)、仅受体激动剂PPT及β受体激动剂DPN对SK3表达的影响。结果细胞免疫荧光双标法发现大鼠结肠SMC存在SK3与α-肌动蛋白共表达。不同浓度17β-雌二醇(10、50nmol/L)刺激结肠SMC后SK3蛋白和mRNA表达量均显著高于溶剂对照组(0.217±0.030、0.321±0.077比0.103±O.063,1.872±0.606、2.967±0.659比0.815±0.202,均P〈0.05),50nmol/L为体外最大有效浓度;SK3表达的高峰时间为第12和24小时(蛋白表达量分别是0h组的2.91、3.30倍,mRNA表达量分别为3.46、3.37倍,均P〈0.05)。予ICI182780预处理后加17β-雌二醇,SK3蛋白表达低于17β-雌二醇组(0.111±0.050比0.351±0.084,P〈0.05),而与对照组差异无统计学意义;BSA—E2对SK3的表达无影响。α受体激动剂PPT组SK3蛋白表达与17β-雌二醇组均显著高于对照组(0.270±0.071、0.309±0.052比0.087±0.018,均P〈0.05);β受体激动剂DPN对SK3蛋白表达无影响。结论大鼠结肠SMC上存在SK3,17β-雌二醇可促进SK3表达,该作用由α受体介导。
Objective To explore the effects and possible mechanism of 17β-estradiol on the expression of small conductance Ca2 ~ activated K+ channel 3 (SK3) in rat colonic smooth muscle cells (SMC). Methods The SMC isolated from male SD rats by enzymolysis were cultured. And double immunofluorescence staining was used to detect the co-expression of SK3 and α-actin. Colonic SMC were cultured with different concentrations of 17β-estradiol for 24 h or with 50 nmol/L 17β-estradiol at different timepoints respectively. The expressions of SK3 in colonic SMC were measured by real-time quantitative reverse transcription (qRT)-PCR and Western blotting. The effects of estrogen receptor (ER) inhibitor ICI 182780, albumin bovine serum-17β-estradiol (BSA-E2), ERα selective agonist propyl pyrazole triol (PPT) and ER+ selective agonist diarylpropiolnitrile (DPN) on SK3 expression were observed. Results Double immunofluorescence staining showed that SK3 and α-actin co-expressed in cultured colonic SMC. The expression of SK3 of 1713-estradiol at different concentration (10, 50 nmol/L) significantly higher than the control group(protein : 0. 217 ± 0. 030 and 0. 321 ±0. 077 vs 0. 103±0. 063, mRNA : 1. 872 ± 0. 606 and 2. 967 ± 0.659 vs 0.813 ±0.202, all P 〈0.05). And 50 nmol/L was the most effective in vitro concentration. The peak expression of SK3 appeared at 12 and 24 hour (2. 91 and 3.30-fold in protein vs 3.46 and 3.37-fold in mRNA respectively, all P 〈 0. 05 ). The protein levels of SK3 in ICI 182780 plus17 β-estradiol group was less than 1713-estradiol group (0. 111 ± 0. 050 vs 0. 351 ± 0. 084, P 〈 0. 05 ). But it was not influenced by BSA-E2. The expressions of SK3 in PPT and E2 groups were both higher than control group(0. 270 ± 0. 071, 0. 309 ± 0. 052 vs 0. 087 ± 0. 018, both P 〈 0. 05 ). However DPN had no effect on SK3 protein levels. Conclusions SK3 is localized in rat colonic SMC. And 17β-estradiol increases its expression in an ERa-dependant ma
