文摘目的观察不同浓度高糖刺激后大鼠肾小球系膜细胞胞内Smad泛素调节因子2(Smurf2)的表达,探讨泛素化降解在糖尿病肾病中的作用。方法将体外培养的大鼠肾系膜细胞分别设正常对照组(葡萄糖浓度5.6 mmol/L)、20 mmol/L高糖组、30 mmol/L高糖组、甘露醇组。分别用real ti me quantitative PCR法和细胞免疫荧光染色法及激光共聚焦显微镜检测各组细胞Smurf2的mRNA和蛋白的表达。结果(1)正常对照组系膜细胞Smurf2的mRNA和蛋白表达较弱。(2)高糖组Smurf2的mRNA和蛋白表达较正常对照组增强(P<0.05),呈浓度依赖性。结论高糖可诱导肾系膜细胞Smurf2表达增强。提示泛素-蛋白酶体途径可能参与了糖尿病肾病的病理进程。
