人参皂苷Rb1可能通过CDK5途径减轻Aβ25-35诱导的胎鼠海马神经元tau蛋白过度磷酸化

观察人参皂苷Rb1对Aβ_25-35诱导的海马神经元tau蛋白过度磷酸化的影响，并探讨其对周期依赖性蛋白激酶(cyclin-dependent kinase 5，CDK5)及激动亚基p25/p35的可能作用。通过蛋白免疫印迹法和免疫细胞化学染色法检测胎鼠海马神经元tau蛋白在Thr²⁰⁵、Ser³⁹⁶和Ser⁴⁰⁴位点的磷酸化水平，及CDK5的两个亚基cdk5和p25/p35的蛋白水平。20 μmol·L^-1凝聚态Aβ_25-35作用于海马神经元12 h，可使海马神经元tau蛋白在Thr²⁰⁵、Ser³⁹⁶和Ser⁴⁰⁴位点的磷酸化水平增高，p25的数量增多，但并不影响cdk5亚基的表达。人参皂苷Rb1可减轻凝聚态Aβ_25-35诱导的海马神经元tau蛋白的过度磷酸化，抑制p35的降解并减少海马神经元p25的生成。人参皂苷Rb1可能通过CDK5途径减轻Aβ_25-35诱导的胎鼠海马神经元tau蛋白过度磷酸化。

Ginsenoside Rb1 attenuates β-amyloid peptide25-35-induced hyperphosphorylation of tau protein through CDK5 signal pathway

This study is to explore the effect of ginsenoside Rb1 on the process of beta-amyloid peptide(25-35) (Abeta(25-35)) -induced hyperphosphorylation of tau protein, and on the level of cyclin-dependent kinase 5 activator, p25/p35. Western blotting and/or immunocytochemical staining were used to detect the levels of phosphorylation of tau protein at the sites of Thr205, Ser396, Ser404 in hippocampal neurons, cdk5 and p25/p35. After exposure to Abeta(25-35) (20 micromol x L(-1)) for 12 h, the levels of tau protein phosphorylation at the sites of Thr205, Ser396, Ser404 were enhanced, the level of p25 was increased, but the level of protein cdk5 was not changed markedly. Pretreatment with ginsenoside Rb1 reduced Abeta(25-35) -induced hyperphosphorylation of tau protein and decreased the lever of p25, but had no effect on cdk5. Ginsenoside Rb1 can attenuate Abeta(25-35) -induced hyperphosphorylation of tau protein through CDK5 signal pathway.
