摘要:

目的 探究小脑发育过程中转录因子Atoh1 mRNA及其蛋白的时空表达模式。方法 取不同发育阶段的小鼠小脑冷冻切片,RNA scope技术分析Atoh1 mRNA在小脑中的时空表达模式,每组 n=3。同时,使用Atoh1转基因和基因敲入两种不同遗传学策略的报告小鼠,采用免疫荧光染色技术分析Atoh1在蛋白水平的时空表达,每组n=3。  结果  Atoh1 mRNA在胚胎小脑菱唇和外颗粒细胞层中呈高表达;Atoh1-3 *V5-P2A-tdTomato/+基因敲入小鼠染色结果显示,Atoh1主要表达在菱唇和有增殖能力的外颗粒细胞层的外层;Atoh1-Cre;tdTomato/+转基因小鼠显示,Atoh1阳性细胞在菱唇和整个颗粒细胞发育过程中包括外颗粒细胞层和内颗粒细胞层中均呈高表达。  结论  小脑发育过程中,Atoh1 mRNA和蛋白在胚胎期的菱唇和出生后的外颗粒细胞层中高丰度表达;但在蛋白水平上,基因敲入小鼠和转基因小鼠Atoh1在菱唇和外颗粒细胞层中的表达略有不同。

Abstract:

Objective  To investigated the spatial and temporal expression of Atoh1 mRNA and protein level during the cerebellar development.   Methods  The frozen cerebellum sections of mice at different developmental stages were used to analyze the temporal and spatial expression patterns of Atoh1 mRNA by RNA scope technique, n=3 for each group. Meanwhile, two reporter mice with different genetic modification method were utilized to analyze the   spatialand temporal expression of Atoh1 at the protein level by immunofluorescence staining, n=3 for each group.  Results  Atoh1 mRNA was highly expressed in the embryonic cerebellar rhombic lip (RL) and the external granule layer (EGL). At the protein level, staining result of Atoh1-3*V5-P2A-tdTomato/+ knockin mice showed that Atoh1 was mainly expressed in the RL and the outer layer of the proliferative EGL. Atoh1-Cre;tdTomato/+   transgenic reporter mice showed that tdTomato positive cells were highly expressed in the EGL and the inner granule cell layer (IGL) during the whole granule cells   development.   Conclusion  During cerebellar development, Atoh1 mRNA and protein were highly expressed in the embryonic rhombic lip and postnatal external granule layer.    However, at the protein level, the expression of Atoh1 in the rhombic lip and external granule layer were different between knockin mice and transgenic mice.
