目的 探讨谷氨酸对HT22细胞线粒体自噬和细胞凋亡的影响,并评估虾青素预处理的保护作用及其分子机制。方法 用谷氨酸及虾青素处理HT22细胞,通过蛋白印迹及聚合酶联反应等评估其对线粒体自噬的影响。结果 谷氨酸处理显著抑制线粒体初级自噬（PINK1、Parkin、pULK1^ser555和LC3Ⅱ）和次级自噬（LAMP1和Rab7）,上调cleaved Caspase-3的表达（P<0.05）。虾青素预处理减少细胞凋亡,恢复了线粒体自噬,PINK1、Parkin、pULK1^ser555和LC3Ⅱ的表达水平上升（分别为2.3倍、2.6倍、83.3%及81.1%）（P<0.05）,该作用被自噬抑制剂BafA1阻断。此外,谷氨酸抑制Nrf2核内转移和NLRX1表达,而预处理显著促进Nrf2的核内转移并上调NLRX1,分别上调25.8%、33.2%。生物信息学分析显示NLRX1启动子区域含有3个Nrf2结合位点,提示Nrf2通过调控NLRX1转录活性发挥作用。结论 文章首次揭示虾青素通过Nrf2/NLRX1通路激活线粒体自噬,展现神经保护作用。

Objective To explore the effects of glutamate on mitophagy and apoptosis in HT22 cells and evaluate the protective effects and molecular mechanisms of astaxanthin pretreatment．Methods HT22 cells were treated with glutamate and astaxanthin．The effects on mitophagy were assessed using Western Blot and PCR．Results Glutamate treatment significantly inhibited primary mitophagy（PINK1,Parkin,pULK1^ser555 and LC3II）and secondary mitophagy（LAMP1 and Rab7）while upregulating cleaved Caspase-3 expression．Astaxanthin pretreatment notably reduced apoptosis and restored mitophagy,the expression levels of PINK1,Parkin,pULK1^Ser555 and LC3II were significantly upregulated（by 2.3-fold,2.6-fold,83.3% and 81.1% respectively,P<0.05）,but this effect was blocked by the autophagy inhibitor BafA1．Additionally,glutamate suppressed Nrf2 nuclear translocation and NLRX1 expression,whereas astaxanthin promoted Nrf2 nuclear translocation and increased NLRX1 expression by 25.8% and 33.2%,respectively．Bioinformatics analysis revealed three Nrf2 binding sites in the NLRX1 promoter region,suggesting that Nrf2 may regulate NLRX1 transcriptional activity．Conclusions The study demonstrates that astaxanthin exhibited potential neuroprotective effect by activating mitophagy through the Nrf2/NLRX1 pathway．

Objective To investigate the autophagy mechanism of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-derived microvesicle (BMSC-MV) in repairing premature ovarian dysfunction in rats. Methods The whole bone marrow adherence method was used to isolate,culture and identify BMSCs of SD rats. Microvesicles were isolated from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell by ultracentrifugation. Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) model was prepared by intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin solution,and serum estradiol (E2) and follicular stimulating hormone (FSH) were detected by ELISA from tail vein 3 days after preparation. Rat model of POI was treated with BMSC-MV transplantation by tail vein. Blood from tail vein was collected 28 days after transplantation to detect E2,FSH and AMH by ELISA. Meanwhile,ovarian tissues were collected to detect autophagy-related proteins LC3 and P62. Results The E2 content of the model control group and the microvesicle transplantation group was lower than that of the normal control group,and the FSH content was higher than that of the normal control group (P<0.001). The content of E2 and AMH in the microvesicle transplantation group at 28 days after transplantation was higher than that in the model control group (P<0.001),and the content of FSH was lower than that in the model control group (P<0.001). Compared with the model control group,LC3 expression in the microvesicle transplantation group was increased,while P62 expression was decreased (P<0.001). Conclusion BMSC -MV mediate autophagy to repair premature ovarian insufficiency in rats.
