| 1 | RTN1-C mediates cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury via modulating autophagy显示文摘It has been widely accepted that autophagic cell death exacerbates the progression of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). Our previous study revealed that overexpression of reticulon protein 1-C (RTN1-C) is involved in cerebral I/R injury. However, the underlying mechanisms have not been studied intensively. This study was designed to evaluate the effect of RTN1-C on autophagy under cerebral I/R. Using an in vitro oxygen-glucose deprivation followed by reoxygenation and a transient middle cerebral artery occlusion model in rats, we found that the expression of RTN1-C protein was significantly upregulated. We also revealed that RTN1-C knockdown suppressed overactivated autophagy both in vivo and in vitro, as indicated by decreased expressions of autophagic proteins. The number of Beclin-1/propidium iodide-positive cells was significantly less in the LV-shRTN1-C group than in the LV-shNC group. In addition, rapamycin, an activator of autophagy, aggravated cerebral I/R injury. RTN1-C knockdown reduced brain infarct volume, improved neurological deficits, and attenuated cell vulnerability to cerebral I/R injury after rapamycin treatment. Taken together, our findings demonstrated that the modulation of autophagy from RTN1-C may play vital roles in cerebral I/R injury, providing a potential therapeutic treatment for ischemic brain injury. | Jun Ling Haijian Cai Muya Lin Shunli Qi Jian Du Lijian Chen | 2021 | Acta Biochimica et Biophysica Sinica2021，53，2： | 2 |
