不同能量的培养条件对人神经母细胞瘤株SH-SY5Y细胞生长的影响

目的建立热量限制的体外模型,观察不同能量培养条件下对人神经母细胞瘤细胞株SH-SY5Y细胞生长代谢的影响。方法将人神经母细胞瘤细胞株SH-SY5Y细胞分别采用含有低浓度（2 g/L）、正常浓度（3.15g/L）或高浓度（4.5 g/L）葡萄糖的培养基进行常规传代培养,利用MTT代谢率、细胞生长曲线及LDH漏出率等指标观察各组细胞生长情况。结果与正常葡萄糖浓度培养条件下培养的对照组相比,高糖组细胞突起缩短,细胞胞体皱缩,MTT代谢率稍低（0.573±0.001）,LDH漏出率高,细胞生长状态差;与对照组相比,低糖组细胞突起伸展,MTT代谢率较低（0.428±0.003）,LDH漏出率低,细胞生长速度缓慢,但是形态良好。结论高糖培养对细胞有损伤作用,细胞代谢加速,更容易衰老死亡;而低糖培养起到保护作用,在热量限制允许范围内降低培养液的含糖量,不但不会对细胞造成损伤,反而对细胞的代谢及生长起到保护作用,延长细胞的总体寿命。     

叠氮钠、过氧化氢对SH-SY5Y细胞内硫氧还蛋白还原酶的影响

过度氧化应激是诱发许多神经退变病的重要因素。叠氮钠(NaN3)是线粒体有氧呼吸链细胞色素c氧化酶(COX)的特异性抑制剂,过氧化氢(H2O2)释放氧自由基造成氧化损伤,两者都可以用于氧化应激情况下神经元损伤模型的建立。硫氧还蛋白还原酶(thioredoxin reductase,TR)特异性的还原氧化型的硫氧还蛋白(thioredoxin,TRx),调节细胞中氧化还原的平衡。现以不同浓度NaN3或H2O2,处理人神经母细胞瘤细胞(SH-SY5Y细胞),建立损伤模型。通过MTT法、形态学方法检测SH-SY5Y细胞损伤程度。同时,通过Western blot定量法、免疫细胞化学法,检测损伤的SH-SY5Y细胞中TR含量的改变,观察TR在胞内的分布。实验表明,NaN3、H2O2,均以浓度依赖方式损伤SH-SY5Y细胞;TR分布于SH-SY5Y细胞的胞浆,表明TR是一种分泌蛋白,损伤后分布无明显变化。但一定浓度的NaN3作用后3h,胞内TR水平显著降低,即神经系统内呼吸链受损可抑制TR的表达,为神经退变病的防治提供了新的思路。

Differentiation of the SH-SY5Y Human Neuroblastoma Cell Line

Having appropriate in vivo and in vitro systems that provide translational models for human disease is an integral aspect of research in neurobiology and the neurosciences. Traditional in vitro experimental models used in neurobiology include primary neuronal cultures from rats and mice, neuroblastoma cell lines including rat B35 and mouse Neuro-2A cells, rat PC12 cells, and short-term slice cultures. While many researchers rely on these models, they lack a human component and observed experimental effects could be exclusive to the respective species and may not occur identically in humans. Additionally, although these cells are neurons, they may have unstable karyotypes, making their use problematic for studies of gene expression and reproducible studies of cell signaling. It is therefore important to develop more consistent models of human neurological disease. The following procedure describes an easy-to-follow, reproducible method to obtain homogenous and viable human neuronal cultures, by differentiating the chromosomally stable human neuroblastoma cell line, SH-SY5Y. This method integrates several previously described methods^1-4 and is based on sequential removal of serum from media. The timeline includes gradual serum-starvation, with introduction of extracellular matrix proteins and neurotrophic factors. This allows neurons to differentiate, while epithelial cells are selected against, resulting in a homogeneous neuronal culture. Representative results demonstrate the successful differentiation of SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells from an initial epithelial-like cell phenotype into a more expansive and branched neuronal phenotype. This protocol offers a reliable way to generate homogeneous populations of neuronal cultures that can be used for subsequent biochemical and molecular analyses, which provides researchers with a more accurate translational model of human infection and disease.     

Mitochondrial Dysfunction Enhances Susceptibility to Oxidative Stress by Down-Regulation of Thioredoxin in Human Neuroblastoma Cells

Increasing evidence suggests that Alzheimer’s disease is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative damage. To develop a cellular model of Alzheimer’s disease, we investigated the effects of thioredoxin (Trx) expression in the response to mitochondrial dysfunction-enhanced oxidative stress in the SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells. Treatment of SH-SY5Y cells with 15 mM of NaN₃, an inhibitor of cytochrome c oxidase (complex IV), led to alteration of mitochondrial membrane potential but no significant changes in cell viability. Therefore, cells were first treated with 15 mM NaN₃ to induce mitochondrial dysfunction, then, exposed to different concentrations of H₂O₂. Cell susceptibility was assessed by 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide assay and morphological observation. Expressions of Trx mRNA and protein were determined by RT-PCR; and Western-blot analysis, respectively. It was found that the SH-SY5Y cells with mitochondrial impairment had lower levels of Trx mRNA and protein, and were significantly more vulnerable than the normal cells after exposure to H₂O₂ while no significant changes of Trx mRNA and protein in SH-SY5Y cells exposed to H₂O₂ but without mitochondrial complex IV inhibition. These results, together with our previous study in primary cultured neurons, demonstrated that the increased susceptibility to oxidative stress is induced at least in part by the down-regulation of Trx in SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells with mitochondrial impairment and also suggest the mitochondrial dysfunction-enhanced oxidative stress could be used as a cellular model to study the mechanisms of Alzheimer’s disease and agents for prevention and treatment.     

Role of 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 and Extracellular Calcium in the Regulation of Proliferation in Cultured SH-SY5Y Human Neuroblastoma Cells

This study examines the effects of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D₃ [1,25(OH)₂D₃] on SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells cultured in the presence of medium containing varying concentrations of calcium (0.1, 0.9, 1.4, 1.8 mM). Pyruvate kinase activity was assayed in SH-SY5Y cells incubated in variable calcium medium with or without 1, 10 or 100 nM 1,25(OH)₂D₃ for 48 h. The enzyme levels showed a significant increase in comparison with control, when the cells were incubated with 100 nM hormone in the presence of 0.1 mM calcium, while pyruvate kinase activity decreased, when the cells were treated with 100 nM 1,25(OH)₂D₃ in the presence of 1.8 mM calcium. The proliferative activity of SH-SY5Y was dependent on the extracellular concentration of calcium, being the highest at 1.8 mM calcium and completely absent at 0.1 mM calcium. In the presence of 1,25(OH)₂D₃, at the three concentrations used and after 48 h incubation, a significant decrease in cell number was always observed, without a direct correlation between 1,25(OH)₂D₃ effect and calcium concentration in the medium. [³H]Thymidine incorporation in SH-SY5Y cells significantly increased in comparison with control, when the 48 h incubation with 1, 10 or 100 nM 1,25(OH)₂D₃ was carried out in the presence of 0.1 mM calcium, while, at the other calcium concentrations, the hormone did not cause any significant change in this parameter. The treatment of SH-SY5Y cells with 1 nM 1,25(OH)₂D₃ for 48 h did not affect cell morphology, when 0.1 mM calcium was present, while, in the medium containing 1.8 mM calcium, the treated cells showed a slight trend to differentiation. The differentiating effect of 10 M all-trans retinoic acid, even if incomplete after 48 h treatment, was only observed in the cultures grown in 1.8 mM calcium, in comparison with those maintained in 0.1 mM calcium.

Nicotinic Receptor-Mediated Release of Noradrenaline in the Human Neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y

Abstract: Dimethylphenylpiperazinium iodide (a nicotinic agonist) evokes noradrenaline release from human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells that have been pretreated with 12- O -tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate for 8 min. This effect of dimethylphenylpiperazinium iodide was inhibited by 1 μ M mecamylamine but not by 1 μ M atropine, which suggests that SH-SY5Y cells express nicotinic receptors coupled to the release of noradrenaline. Dimethylphenylpiperazinium iodide-evoked release was enhanced by 5 μ M Bay K 8644 (an L-type calcium agonist) and inhibited by 1 μ M nifedipine. Dimethylphenylpiperazinium iodide depolarised SH-SY5Y cells and enhanced the level of intracellular calcium in cells loaded with fura 2. The effects of dimethylphenylpiperazinium iodide on noradrenaline release, depolarisation, and intracellular calcium levels were all inhibited by 1 μ M desmethylimipramine. The results of this study show that nicotinic receptors in SH-SY5Y cells stimulate noradrenaline release by activation of L-type calcium channels.     

Occurrence of Two Types of Secretory Vesicles in the Human Neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y

Abstract: Western blot analysis showed that the human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y expresses the proteins synaptotagmin I, synaptobrevin, synapsin I, rab3a, syntaxin, SNAP-25, NSF, α-SNAP, and munc-18, which have been implicated in the movement, docking, and fusion of vesicles during exocytosis from other neuroendocrine cells. The subcellular localization of secretogranins I and II, synaptotagmin I, neuropeptide Y, rab3a, synaptobrevin, synaptophysin, and syntaxin was investigated by immunofluorescence microscopy and revealed punctate staining patterns characteristic of secretory vesicles. The comigration of noradrenaline, secretogranin II, and dopamine-β-hydroxylase on sucrose-D₂O gradient fractions indicates the presence of a population of noradrenaline-containing large dense-cored vesicles (LDCVs). In addition, a lighter vesicle population is also present that does not appear to be noradrenergic and contains a 48-kDa synaptophysin antigen absent from the large dense-cored vesicles. Immunocytochemical experiments show that not all of the vesicles that express synaptotagmin I contain secretogranin II. Thus, our studies suggest that two types of vesicle are present in SH-SY5Y cells, one of which, the LDCVs, contains noradrenaline. These findings confirm our previous studies suggesting that depolarization-evoked release of noradrenaline from SH-SY5Y occurs by LDCV exocytosis. This enhances the value of SH-SY5Y as a cell line in which to study the mechanism by which noradrenaline release is regulated.     

Carbachol Inhibits Insulin-Stimulated Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase Activity in SH-SY5Y Neuroblastoma Cells

Abstract: SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells express muscarinic M₃ receptors as well as insulin receptors, thus offering the opportunity to investigate possible cross-talk following activation of two distinct intracellular signal transduction pathways that convert the precursor phosphatidylinositol (PI) to its 3′ phosphate or its 4′ phosphate, respectively. In this study, the effect of carbachol on insulin-stimulated PI 3-kinase (PI3K) activity was examined in SH-SY5Y cells. Insulin addition to the cell medium induced a 10–26-fold increase in anti-phosphotyrosine-immunoprecipitable PI3K activity. Preincubation with 1 mM carbachol inhibited the insulin-stimulated PI3K activity in a time-dependent manner, with half-maximal and maximal inhibition times of 4 and 15 min, respectively. Atropine blocked the inhibitory effect of carbachol. Although carbachol did not change the amount of 85-kDa subunit protein regulatory unit associated with tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins, either in control or in insulin-stimulated cells, it appears to decrease the amount of associated 110-kDa catalytic subunit protein in the latter instance. Because PI3K activity from SH-SY5Y cells has been shown to be inhibited in vitro in the presence of cytidine diphosphodiacylglycerol (CDP-DAG) or phosphatidate (PA), we examined the presence of these lipids in SH-SY5Y cells that had been treated with carbachol. Formation of both lipids was increased in a time-dependent manner following carbachol addition, and their increased levels are proposed to account for the observed in vivo inhibition of PI3K. Addition of the cell-permeable homologue didecanoyl-CDP-DAG to intact cells inhibited insulin-stimulated PI3K activity up to 75%, with an IC₅₀ of 0.5 µM, a result that further supports a proposed lipid-mediated inhibition of PI3K. Exogenously added didecanoyl-PA, however, did not affect PI3K activity. The possibility that stimulation of the PI 4-kinase-mediated signal transduction pathway leads to down-regulation of the PI3K-mediated signal transduction pathway in vivo, via inhibition of PI3K by CDP-DAG or by other consequences of phosphoinositidase C-linked receptor activation, is discussed.     

Neuroprotective Effects of Ugonin K on Hydrogen Peroxide-Induced Cell Death in Human Neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y Cells

Oxidative stress plays an important role in the pathological processes of various neurodegenerative diseases. Ugonin K, a flavonoid isolated from the rhizomes of Helminthostachys zeylanica, possesses potent antioxidant property. In this study, we investigate the neuroprotective effects of ugonin K on hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂)-induced apoptosis in SH-SY5Y cells. Incubation of SH-SY5Y cells with H₂O₂ for 24 h induced cell death measured with MTT assay. Hoechst 33258 staining confirmed that the reduced cell viability by H₂O₂ was due to apoptosis. In addition, H₂O₂ increased the expression of 17-kDa cleaved fragment of caspase-3 which could be reversed by pretreatment with ugonin K. Pretreatment with ugonin K attenuated H₂O₂-induced cell death in a dose-dependent manner. Neuroprotective effect of ugonin K was abolished by ERK and PI3K inhibitors. Pretreatment with JNK kinase and p38 MAPK inhibitors had no effect on ugonin K-mediated protection against H₂O₂-induced apoptosis. Western blotting with anti-phospho-ERK1/2 and anti-phospho-Akt (pS473) antibodies showed that ugonin K increased both ERK1/2 and Akt phosphorylation. These results suggest that ugonin K by activation of ERK1/2 and PI3K/Akt signal pathways protects SH-SY5Y cells from H₂O₂-induced apoptosis.
