摘要:

目的 探讨神经型钙黏蛋白(N-cadherin)调控连环蛋白(catenin)对小鼠神经母细胞瘤细胞(N2a)形态的影响。 方法 构建鼠源的N-cadherin融合蛋白超表达载体,利用脂质体转染的方法将空载体pCAG-MCS-EGFP和超表达载体pCAG-N-Cad-EGFP分别转染至N2a细胞,作为对照组和实验组;细胞划痕和黏附实验检测N-cadherin超表达对N2a细胞迁移和黏附的影响,免疫荧光检测N-cadherin超表达对N2a细胞形态的影响,并结合Western blotting检测连环蛋白家族的表达情况。结果 与对照组相比,N-cadherin超表达促进细胞突起的形成,使得N2a细胞突起增多和伸长;N-cadherin超表达增强了黏附性而抑制了细胞的迁移能力;N-cadherin超表达使得细胞内连环蛋白家族中α-catenin、β-catenin和p120蛋白表达均显著上升(P<0.05),而γ-catenin表达下降但差异不显著(P>0.05);另外,N-cadherin超表达的细胞有明显的聚集现象。 结论 N-cadherin超表达促进N2a细胞突起形成,增强细胞的黏附性从而抑制细胞的迁移能力,调控连环蛋白家族成员的表达并促使细胞聚集。

Abstract:

Objective To analyse the effects of N-cadherin overexpression on cell morphology and catenins expression by using mouse neuroblastoma N2a cells. Methods The mouse N-cadherin gene was cloned to pCAG-MCS-EGFP plasmid and transfected into N2a cells by Lipofectamine 3000. The empty vector pCAG-MCS-EGFP and the overexpression vector pCAG-N-Cad-EGFP transfected group were used as control group and experimental group, respectively. Cell scratche and cell adhesion experiments were used to detect the effects of N-cadherin overexpression on the migration and adhesion of N2a cells. Immunofluorescence was used to detect the effect of N-cadherin overexpression on the morphology of N2a cells. The expression of catenin family was detected by Western blotting. Results Compared with the control group, overexpressing N-cadherin promoted the protrusion formation of N2a cells, which led to the increase and elongation of protrusion in N2a cells. N-cadherin overexpression enhancea cell adhesion and inhibited migration. N-cadherin overexpression resulted in the expression level of α-catenin, β-catenin and p120 protein significantly increased (P<0.05), while γ-catenin expression decreased but the difference was not significant (P>0.05). In addition, the cell aggregation phenomenon was observed when N-cadherin overexpression. Conclusion N-cadherin overexpression promotes protrusion formation and adhesion ability in N2a cells, but inhibits cell migration, regulates the expression of the family of catenin and promotes cell aggregation.
