目的:觀察和探討烏頭堿誘導(dǎo)的心房顫動(房顫)對內(nèi)皮素1(ET-1)分泌及其受體表達(dá)的影響,并觀察ET-1下游的信號通路的變化。方法:采用大鼠左心房離體灌流模型,利用放射性免疫技術(shù)檢測ET-1分泌的水平;利用蛋白免疫印跡法分析心房肌縫隙連接蛋白40(Cx40)、43(Cx43)、ETA型受體(ETRA)、ETB型受體(ETRB)蛋白水平的變化以及MAPK/ERK和PI3K/ Akt的磷酸化作用。結(jié)果:房顫時(shí)Cx40和Cx43表達(dá)明顯下調(diào)(P<0. 01) ;房顫明顯促進(jìn)心房ET-1的分泌(P<0. 01) ;房顫時(shí)ET受體表達(dá)呈現(xiàn)異常,ETRA明顯上調(diào)(P<0. 05),而ETRB則顯著下調(diào)(P<0. 01) ;房顫時(shí)ET-1下游的MAPK/ERK及PI3K/ Akt信號轉(zhuǎn)導(dǎo)發(fā)生變化,pERK及pAkt明顯上調(diào)(P<0. 01,P<0. 05)。結(jié)論:房顫明顯增加心房ET-1的分泌,并導(dǎo)致其受體及其下游ERK和Akt信號通路的異常表達(dá),這可能與房顫誘導(dǎo)的心房肌結(jié)構(gòu)重構(gòu)相關(guān)。
AIM: To unravel the metabolic phenotype of human hematopoietic progenitor and stem cells (HPSCs).METHODS: Flow cytometric profiling and separation of human MPB cells based on their mitochondrial activity were performed using MitoTracker dyes and used for further analysis of metabolic profiles and underlying mechanisms.RESULTS: We showed that HPSCs had a similar metabolic phenotype,as shown by high rates of glycolysis and low rates oxygen consumption.Fractionation of human mobilized peripheral blood cells based on their metabolic footprint showed that the cells with a low mitochondrial potential were highly enriched for HPSCs.Remarkably,low MP cells had much better repopulation ability as compared to high MP cells.Moreover,similar to their murine counterparts,Hif-1α was upregulated in human HPSCs,where it was transcriptionally regulated by Meis1.Finally,Meis1 and its cofactors Pbx1 and HoxA9 played an important role in transcriptional activation of Hif-1α in a cooperative manner.CONCLUSION: These findings highlight the unique metabolic properties of human HPSCs and the transcriptional network that regulates their metabolic phenotype.
