文摘MG53(mitsugumin 53)蛋白,是E3泛素连接酶多功能三结构域(tripartite motif,TRIM)蛋白家族成员之一,又被称为TRIM72。MG53是一种细胞膜修复蛋白,广泛表达于心肌和骨骼肌,可在膜损伤部位快速积累,在骨骼肌和心肌细胞膜修复中发挥重要作用。近年来,大量研究发现,MG53可以参与缺血预适应和缺血后适应的心肌保护作用,减轻心肌缺血再灌注损伤;并且在生理或病理状态下,MG53在许多器官中均有表达,促进细胞膜修复。然而MG53过表达则会导致泛素依赖的胰岛素受体表达下降,进而导致代谢综合征和糖尿病性心脏病。本文综述了近年来MG53的生理功能及其相关作用机制研究进展,以期为重组人MG53(recombinant human mitsugumin53,rhMG53)的临床应用提供参考。
