目的 探讨替米沙坦干预对自发性高血压大鼠(SHR)血管组织血管紧张素转换酶2(ACE2)基因表达、一氧化氮(NO)及氧化应激水平的影响.方法 选取10周龄SHR及其同源对照WKY大鼠,分别给予替米沙坦(5、10 mg·kg-1·d-1)或安慰剂,为期10周.采用Western blot检测治疗后大鼠主动脉组织中ACE2蛋白及内皮型NO合酶(eNOS)磷酸化水平.分别采用硝酸还原酶比色法与硫代巴比妥酸比色法测定大鼠主动脉组织中NO和丙二醛(MDA)含量.结果 与WKY对照组相比,SHR大鼠主动脉组织中ACE2蛋白和Ser1177-eNOS磷酸化水平明显降低(ACE2:0.39±0.05 vs 1.00±0.06;p-eNOS:0.43±0.06 vs 1.00±0.04;P值均<0.01),伴NO水平下调及MDA含量增加(NO mmol·g-1protein:11.5±2.1 vs 27.8±4.9;MDA nmol·g-1 protein:393.9±17.9 vs 186.3±14.5;P值均<0.01),而经替米沙坦治疗后SHR低、高剂量治疗组大鼠主动脉组织中ACE2蛋白和Ser1177-eNOS磷酸化水平增加(ACE2:0.62±0.06,0.65±0.07 vs 0.39±0.05;p-eNOS:0.68±0.07,0.71±0.06 vs 0.43±0.06;P值均<0.05),伴NO水平升高(19.2±3.3,23.9±3.2 vs 11.5±2.1 mmol·g-1protein;P值均<0.05)与MDA含量下调(271.9±16.1,249.2±19.6 vs 393.9±17.9 nmol·g-1 protein;P值均<0.05).结论 长期替米沙坦治疗通过提升高血压大鼠血管ACE2表达及eNOS磷酸化水平,可促使血管NO生成及氧化应激水平改善,提示替米沙坦对高血压具有一定的血管保护功效.

Objective Muncl8-1 has an important role in neurotransmitter release, and controls every step in the exocy- totic pathway in the central nervous system. In the present study, whether epileptic seizure causes a change of Muncl8 localization in neuronal nuclei was analyzed. Methods Epilepsy models were established by injection of kainic acid (KA) solution into hippocampus of Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats or intraperitoneal injection of KA in Kunming mice. The hippocampal neurons were prepared from embryonic day 18 SD rats, and cultured in neurobasal medium, followed by treatment with glutamate for 3 h. Neuronal and glial nuclei of hippocampus were separated by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. The nucleus-enriched fractions were stained with 0.1% Cresyl Violet for morphological assay. Immuno- chemistry and immunoelectron microscopy with anti-Muncl 8-1 antibody were used to determine the nuclear locatization of Munc 18-1. Immunoblotting was used to detect the protein level of Munc 18-1. Results The localization of Munc 18-1 in nucleus of rat hippocampal neuron was confirmed by immunochemistry, immunoelectron microscopy, and immunob- lotting detection of neuronal nucleus fraction. In animals receiving intrahippocampal or intraperitoneal injection of KA, immunostaining revealed that the expression of Muncl 8-1 decreased in pyramidal cell layer of CA regions, as well as in hilus and granular cell layer of dentate gyrus in hippocampus. Moreover, immunoblotting analysis showed that the expres- sion level of Muncl 8-1 in nucleus fraction of hippocampus significantly decreased in KA-treated animals. The relation- ship between the change of Muncl8-1 expression in neuronal nuclei and neuronal over-activation was also tested in pri- mary cultured neurons. After treatment with 50 ~tmol/L glutamate acid for 3 h, Muncl8-1 level was decreased in nucleus fraction and increased in cytoplasmic fraction of primary cultured neurons. Conclusion These results suggest that excit- atory st
