摘要: 目的 研究补肾化痰方(BSHT)对绝经后骨质疏松症模型大鼠环磷酸腺苷(cAMP)-蛋白激酶A(PKA)-cAMP效应元件结合蛋白(CREB)信号通路及β2肾上腺素能受体(β2 adrenergic receptor,β2AR)通路的影响。方法 取SD大鼠30只,随机分为假手术(Sham)组、模型(OVX)组、BSHT组,每组10只,去卵巢法复制绝经后骨质疏松模型。从造模后第5周开始,各组分别以生理盐水(Sham组和OVX组)或BSHT药液(BSHT组)灌胃;于造模第12周末处死大鼠,取材后进行指标检测。采用微型计算机断层扫描技术(micro CT)检测大鼠股骨的微结构;采用逆转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)和蛋白质印迹法(Western blot)检测骨组织中相关信号通路分子,如β2AR、PKA、CREB的基因和蛋白表达水平;采用免疫组织化学法(immunohistochemistry,IHC)检测蛋白的组织定位。结果 与Sham组相比,OVX组大鼠的骨微结构指标,包括骨密度(bone mineral density,BMD)、骨体积分数(bone volume fraction,BV/TV)、骨小梁厚度(trabecular thickness,Tb.Th)、骨小梁数量(trabecular number,Tb.N)均明显下降,骨小梁分离度(trabecular separation,Tb.Sp)升高;信号通路指标中,PKA、CREB的mRNA及蛋白表达水平明显下降,β2AR mRNA及蛋白表达明显增加(均P<0.05)。与OVX组相比,BSHT组大鼠的骨微结构相关指标(BMD、BV/TV、Tb.Th、Tb.N)及PKA、CREB表达明显增加,而Tb.Sp、β2AR表达水平明显下降(均P<0.05)。IHC结果显示骨小梁周边的成骨细胞和骨髓基质细胞的胞质中,β2AR、PKA、CREB呈阳性表达。结论 BSHT能够通过调节去势骨质疏松症大鼠β2AR及cAMP-PKA-CREB信号通路,影响骨重建,从而起到防治骨质疏松的作用。

Abstract: Objective To investigate the effects of Bushen Huatan decoction(BSHT) on the β2 adrenergic receptor(β2AR)and the cyclic AMP(cAMP)-protein kinase A(PKA)-cAMP response element binding protein(CREB)signaling pathway in ovariectomized rats. Methods A postmenopausal osteoporosis rat model was established by ovariectomy.30 rats were randomly divided into 3 groups:A sham operation (Sham)group,a model (OVX)group,and a (BSHT)group.5 weeks after the operation,the rats received different treatments(4 mL of normal saline for the Sham and OVX groups,and BSHT for the BSHT group).Micro-computed tomography(micro CT)was used to assess the microstructure of the femur.The mRNA and protein expression levels of β2AR,PKA,and CREB in the femur were detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting,respectively.The distribution of the proteins in femur tissue was determined by immunohistochemistry(IHC). Results Compared with the Sham group,the OVX group showed significantly decreased bone mineral density(BMD),bone volume fraction(BV/TV),trabecular thickness(Tb.Th),and trabecular number(Tb.N),as well as increased trabecular separation(Tb.Sp).The mRNA and protein levels of PKA and CREB were also decreased,while the mRNA and protein levels of β2AR were significantly increased(all P<0.05)in the OVX group.Compared with the OVX group,the BSHT group exhibited significantly increased BMD,BV/TV,Tb.Th,Tb.N,and expression levels of PKA and CREB,along with significantly decreased expression levels of β2AR(all P<0.05).IHC results showed that β2AR,PKA,and CREB were positively expressed in the cytoplasm of osteoblasts surrounding the trabeculae and in bone marrow stromal cells. Conclusion BSHT may prevent and treat osteoporosis in ovariectomized rats by regulating the expression of β2AR and the cAMP-PKA-CREB signaling pathway.
