Abstract
AIM:To explore the role of ERK signal transduction pathway in the
pathogenesis of liver fibrosis via investigating the expression and
distribution of ERK1 in rats with liver fibrosis.
METHODS:Liver
fibrosis model of rats were made by subcutaneously injecting with CCl4.
Thirty-two male SD rats (weight 250-300 g) were randomly scarified at 1, 4
and 8 weeks after injection of CCl4 respectively, and their liver were
used to detect ERK1 expression by immunohistochemical staining.
RESULTS:The
expression of ERK1 in rats after injection with CCl4 were found chiefly in
hepatic stellate cells(HSC)and all significantly higher than those in
normal rats(P <0.05). Moreover, it presented with a progressive
tendency for the expression of ERK1 in rats respectively at 1st, 4th and
8th week after injection with CCl4 (P <0.05).
CONCLUSION:The
activation of ERK signal transduction pathway enhances HSC proliferation,
and it may play an important role in liver fibrogenesis in rat.

0 引言
细胞外信号调节激酶(extracellular
signal-regulated kinase,ERK)可能与器官纤维化的发生有关[1-4].
但ERK通路是否参与肝纤维化过程尚无明确报道.
我们应用免疫组织化学方法对CCl4诱导的肝纤维化大鼠肝组织进行检测,初步探讨该信号转导通路在肝纤维化发生中的作用如下.
1
材料和方法
1.1材料
健康♂SD大鼠(由华中科技大学实验动物中心提供)32只,质量200-300
g,随机均分为1,4,8
wk及正常对照4组.
主要试剂:兔抗人ERK1抗体和ABC二抗试剂盒购自北京中山生物技术有限公司,内源性生物素封闭液(ABB液)购自武汉博士德公司.
1.2方法
肝纤维化模型制备及标本处理:按0.3
ml/100 g体重的剂量,皮下注射40
ml/L CCl4油剂,2次/wk.
分别在注射CCl4第1,4,8周分批处死动物,留取肝脏组织,PBS(PH7.4)清洗后100
ml/L甲醛固定,常规石蜡包埋,连续5
mm切片.
免疫组织化学染色:采用SABC法,石蜡切片常规脱蜡,30
ml/L H2O2甲醇溶液室温孵育15
min,PBS洗涤5
min×2遍后,用0.01
mol/L的柠檬酸缓冲液(pH6.0)加热至92-96
°C修复抗原15
min,冷却后依次滴加ABB液和正常兔血清封闭各10
min,而后用ERK1一抗4
°C孵育过夜;次日取出切片以PBS冲洗后,再依次滴加生物素化羊抗兔二抗、链酶卵白素;最后DAB显色,苏木素复染.
常规乙醇脱水、二甲苯透明、中性树胶封片保存.
光镜下观察并分析ERK1表达情况.
ERK1抗体稀释度为1:200.
用PBS代替一抗作阴性对照.
图像分析和数据统计:用HPIAS-1000型全自动医学图像彩色分析系统(由华中科技大学同济医学院病理教研室提纲)进行图像半定量分析,每张切片随机选取5个视野,测定肝组织中
ERK1的棕黄色阳性表达颗粒的平均吸光度A值.
统计学处理
应用SPSS统计软件对四组数据进行ANOVA检验,结果以均数±标准差(
)表示,P
<0.05为有显著性差异.
2
结果
在正常肝组织中,ERK1呈针尖状棕黄色弱阳性表达,主要见于汇管区、小叶中央静脉周围及肝索Disse腔间隙中.
高倍镜下,ERK1分布于Disse间隙的HSC胞质中,肝细胞未见表达(图1A).
在CCl4注射1,4,8
wk组肝组织中,ERK1的表达明显增多、增强,低倍镜下可见小叶中央静脉周围、汇管区以及肝小叶内均有大量条索状、星芒状的ERK1阳性表达.
高倍镜下,ERK1阳性表达主要分布于HSC胞质、胞核中.
在8 wk组肝纤维化组织中,除HSC表达外,亦有零星肝细胞胞质、胞核呈ERK1阳性(图1B,C,D).
随CCl4诱导时间的延长,ERK1在正常对照组及CCl4注射1,4,8
wk组肝组织中的表达强度呈明显的逐级递增的趋势(0.3
597±0.0 140,0.3
849±0.0 199,0.7
876±0.0 316,0.9
125±0.0 158,P

讨论
肝纤维化是大多数慢性肝病向肝硬化发展的共同病理过程
[5-7].
研究证实,肝星状细胞(haptic
stellate cell,HSC)增生、活化及分泌细胞外基质(extracellular
matric,ECM)是肝纤维化形成的重要机制[8-12].
近年资料表明,肝慢性损伤及炎症反应时,HSC最强的促分裂剂血小板衍化生长因子(platelet-derived
growth factor, PDGF)及其受体的表达明显增强[13-16].
而PDGF活化信号可能是通过Ras/raf/ERK级联通路进行转导的[17-20].
为此,我们对ERK1在大鼠肝纤维化发生、发展中的表达及分布进行了研究,结果显示:CCl4注射诱导后,大鼠肝组织中ERK1的表达较正常对照明显增多、增强;在正常大鼠肝组织中,ERK1呈肝间质细胞胞质分布,正常肝细胞内则未见表达;在CCl4诱导各阶段,ERK1在HSC胞质、胞核均有表达,呈核浆型分布;随着CCl4注射诱导时间的延长,肝组织ERK1表达呈逐渐增强趋势.
Ras/raf/ERK信号通路是MAPK众多途径中不可缺少的组成之一,能将多种细胞外信号通过磷酸化的活化方式逐级传递至细胞核,激活多种转录因子,参与细胞增生、分化以及细胞恶性转化等多种生理、病理过程[21-23].
ERK(包括ERK1、
ERK2两种亚型)即是此通路中极为关键的一员,负责将胞质内的活化信号传递入胞核内[24-26].
ERK为丝氨酸/苏氨酸激酶,激活后可催化c-jun、c-fos、c-myc以及核糖体S6蛋白激酶(RSK)的磷酸化,后者诱导靶基因的转录,促使细胞由G0期进入到G1期,继而调节细胞增生[27-30].
我们的结果显示,在各肝纤维化组中,ERK1的表达强度随着肝纤维化程度的加重而明显增强,而且由单纯性胞质分布转变为核质型分布,提示ERK携带信号的核转入明显增多,与HSC的增生密切相关.
而HSC作为肝纤维化形成过程中起关键作用的细胞,他的激活是整个事件发生的开端,由此推测,ERK介导的信号通路促进肝星状细胞的增生、活化,参与了肝纤维化发生、发展过程.
