摘要 目的:本研究主要是探索高浓度的Shh对后脑5-HT神经元数量的影响。方法:通过免疫荧光和原位杂交手段检测Shh在脑干的表达情况。离体培养5-HT神经元,用不同浓度Shh蛋白处理,观察5-HT神经元的数量变化以及对轴突的影响。通过胚胎宫内电转,检测Shh过表达后脑5-HT神经元的数量变化。结果:Shh在脑干5-HT神经元分布区域内表达。离体培养的5-HT神经元,250 ng/mL的Shh蛋白处理后神经元数量为41.25±0.52(n=4,P=0.0218),与对照组35±1.21(n=4)相比,神经元数量上调。相反,1250 ng/mL的Shh蛋白处理后神经元数量为7.5±0.43(n=4,P<0.0001),与对照组相比,神经元数量极显著下降。250 ng/mL的Shh蛋白处理后5-HT神经元轴突长度为1.08±0.05 (n=4,P=0.7555),与对照组1±0.01(n=4)相比,轴突长度没有显著性差异。然而1250 ng/mL的Shh蛋白处理后5-HT神经元轴突长度为0.44±0.03 (n=4,P=0.0014),与对照组相比,轴突长度极显著缩短。胚胎宫内电转pIRES-Shh-EGFP和pIRES-EGFP,观察到Shh过表达缝核上行5-HT神经元数量为147±54.2 (n=4,P=0.0053),相较于对照组459±49.0 (n=4),神经元数量极显著下降。同样地,Shh过表达缝核下行5-HT神经元数量为187±18.4 (n=4,P=0.0001),相较于对照组411±17.3(n=4),神经元数量也发生了极显著下降。结论:Shh过表达对5-HT神经元的发育有负向的调控作用,主要表现在引起后脑缝核5-HT神经元数量减少。 |

ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of this study was to explore the effect of high concentration of Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) on 5-hydrox- ytryptamine (5-HT) neurons number in hindbrain. Methods: Immunofluorescence and in situ hybridization were performed to detect the expression of Shh in brainstem. Cultured 5-HT neurons were treated with different Shh gradients, to observe the change of neurons number and effect on axons. The change of 5-HT neurons number was detected through Shh overexpression by in utero electroporation. Results: Shh was expressed in brainstem where 5-HT neurons distributed. In vitro cultured 5-HT neurons, treated with 250 ng/mL Shh protein, neurons number was 41.25±0.52(n=4, P=0.0218), and comparing to control groups 35±1.21(n=4), there was an increase of neurons number. In contrast, treated with 1250 ng/mL Shh protein, neurons number was 7.5±0.43(n=4, P<0.0001), and there was an significant reduction of neurons number comparing to control groups. Besides, treated with 250 ng/ml Shh protein, the length of 5-HT axons was 1.08±0.05(n=4, P=0.7555), and comparing to control groups 1±0.01(n=4), there was no detectable effect on the axon length. However, treated with 1250 ng/mL Shh protein, the length of 5-HT axons was 0.44±0.03(n=4, P=0.0014), if compared to control groups, the axon length was remarkably shortened. In utero electroporation with pIRES-Shh-EGFP and pIRES-EGFP, observed the number of ascending 5-HT neurons in raphe nuclei was 147±54.2(n=4, P=0.0053) through Shh overexpression, and neurons number decreased notably com- paring to control groups 459±49.0(n=4). Similarly, the number of 5-HT neurons in raphe nuclei was 187±18.4(n=4, P=0.0001) through Shh overexpression, and comparing to control groups 411±17.3(n=4), neurons number remarkably reduced. Conclusion: Shh overex- pression negatively regulated the development of 5-HT neurons, and mainly reflected in leading to the reduction of 5-HT neurons in raphe nuclei of hindbrain. |
