中文摘要:
      摘要: α7 nAChR 是配体门控离子通道蛋白超家族的典型代表, 烟碱型乙酰胆碱受体的一个重要亚型,是复杂的五聚体跨膜蛋白, 介导 Na + 、 Ca 2+ 流入, K + 流出, 尤以对 Ca 2+ 通透性高。α7 nAChR 分布广泛且功能多样, 不仅分布于中枢和外周神经系统, 介导神经 元的快速突触传递, 其在许多非神经元细胞和组织中亦有表达, 包括内皮细胞, 支气管上皮细胞, 皮肤角蛋白细胞, 膀胱上皮细 胞, 血管平滑肌等, 并参与其功能调节及功能障碍相关疾病的病理生理过程, 如可调节细胞质运动和细胞间黏附, 细胞增殖, 血管 生成以及肿瘤的侵袭和迁移。本文主要介绍烟碱型乙酰胆碱受体 α7 亚型在不同胚层来源的上皮组织细胞中的表达及其功能特 征,以期通过激活或抑制 α7 nAChR 的表达来降低与其密切相关疾病的发生率。
英文摘要:
      ABSTRACT:Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) belong to the ligand-gated ion channel super family. These receptors have the characteristic of high permeability for Ca 2+ while the α7 subunit is a very important type for this super family. It is a complex pentamer transmembrane protein and besides Ca 2+ , the receptor also mediate the influx of Na + and the outflow ofK + . α7 nAChR is widely distributed in many tissues and organs with multiply functions. They not only exit in central and peripheral nervous systems that mediate fast synaptic transmission in neurons, but also have been found on non-neuronal cells and tissues such as endothelial cells (ECs), bronchial epithelial cells, skin keratinocytes, urinary bladder epithelial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells. In these non-neuronal cells and tissues, the receptor is involved in pathophysiological process of functional regulation and dysfunction related diseases. The mechanism can be attributed to the regulation of cytoplasmic movement, intercellular adhesion, cell proliferation, angiogenesis, the invasion and metastasis for tumor. This review mainly describes the expression and functional characteristics of nicotinic cholinergic receptor alpha7 subtype which expressed in three germ layers derived cells and tissues in the hope of providing some theoretical theories for clinical work through regulating its expression level in different tissues.
