Methods: After RGC- cells were cultured by Staurosporine, TonEBP expression was measured with Western immunoblotting analysis and real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction in mm NaCl, mm mannitol, mm glucose, or mm glucose at, 6,, and hours after exposure to each environment. Results: In this study, the protein expression of TonEBP was determined to be statistically significantly checked in mm NaCl after, and 6 hours, in mm mannitol after 6 hours, and in mm glucose after, and 6 hours. TonEBP messenger Ribonucleic acid (mrna) expression was determined to be statistically significantly checked in mm NaCl after hours, in mm mannitol after, and hours, and in mm glucose after, and hours. Conclusions: These results suggested that TonEBP was expressed by hypertonic and hyperosmolar stress at the protein and mrna levels. Further studies are nedded to determine the role of TonEBP and the mechanism of expression and regulation of TonEBP.

Western Immunoblotting 이실험은 회에걸쳐시행되었으며첫번째실험에서는 mm NaCl, mm mannitol을, 6,, 시간처리하였고 TonEBP와 GAPDH (glyceraldehyde--phosphate dehydrogenase) 의발현정도를확인하였으며두번째실험에서는 mm glucose, mm glucose를, 6,, 시간처리하여단백질을추출하였으며 TonEBP와 β-actin의발현정도를확인하였다. GAPDH 는배양된 RGC- 세포에 % SDS-polyacrylamide gel을만든후 protease inhibitors (Roche Applied Science, Mannheim, Germany) 를처리한다음각 well에 cell lysates ug을 loading하였다. 차항체로는 NFAT (TonEBP, :,, donated from Kwon HM, Ph.

- 우종은외 : 스트레스환경에서 TonEBP 의발현 - 고찰 망막신경절세포 (retinal ganglion cell) 의손상또는죽음은결국비가역적인시야결손또는시력저하를유발하므로이를예방하기위해망막신경절세포가여러스트레스환경에노출될때이를보호하는기전에대한연구가활발히진행되고있으며그중당뇨병과같은만성대사성질환에있어서고혈당으로인한고장성환경에의한스트레스가유발될때망막신경절세포를보호하기위한세포보호기전에대한연구가최근조명받고있으며분자유전학적인관점에서그기전을밝혀내고자많은연구들이이루어지고있다. 본연구또한그기전중하나로알려진 TonEBP의발현에대해실험적으로고장성환경에서 mrna 및단백질수준에서 TonEBP가발현된다는것을확인할수있었다. TonEBP는 Rel family에속하는전사조절인자로서고장성환경에의해활성화된 TonEBP는 vasopressin-regulated urea transporter (UT-A) 및 Hsp7 단백질의발현을증가시켜스트레스로인한세포사멸을막아주는데중요한역할을담당하고있는것으로알려졌다. 7,8 아직까지 TonEBP 의활성기전에대해서는아직명확히밝혀지지않았으나보고된바에따르면 TonEBP의 transactivation domain이고장성에의해활성화된다고알려졌으며인산화가크게증가하는데주로 serine과 tyrosine이인산화되는것으로보고되었다. 또한 TonEBP의발현으로인해 sodium/myo-inositol cotransporter (SMIT) 및 aldose reductase (AR) 가활성화되는것으로알려졌는데뇌손상또는당뇨합병증이일어난조직에서증가되어있는것으로알려졌으나그기전에대해서는명확히알려진바가없다. 본연구에서는당뇨망막병증환자에서발생할수있는고혈당에의한고장성환경에서망막신경절세포가죽음에이르는과정을방지하기위해 TonEBP와같은전사조절인자를활성화시킨다는추측하에실험적으로고장성환경내에서 TonEBP의발현여부를확인한것이다. 아직까지는 TonEBP의발현과관련하여고장성스트레스외에다른조절기전에대해서는알려진바가없으나신장 (kidney) 을제외한뇌 (brain), 간 (liver), 고환 (testis), 흉선 (thymus) 과같은내분비조직, 생식기관, 면역조직에서관찰된바가있어고장성에대한세포의보호기능외에도다른기능이 TonEBP에존재할것으로예상되고있다. 9- 먼저본실험에서 TonEBP의단백질수준에서의발현여부를보기위해 Western blotting을시행한실험에서는 mm NaCl 처리, 6시간후와 mm mannitol 처리 6시간후, 그리고 mm glucose 처리, 6시간후에서통계적으로유의한발현정도를보였다. 이를종합해보면 TonEBP의단백질발현정도는고장성환경의농도에의존적으로증가할것이라고예상된다. 모든약물처리후초기인, 6시간후에유의하게발현된부분과 mm glucose 를처리했을때는통계적으로유의한발현정도를보이지않았고 mm glucose를처리했을때유의한발현정도를보인점이이를뒷받침해주고있다. 따라서단백질의발현정도는농도가높을수록즉고장성인환경일수록잘발현될것으로생각한다. 본실험에서는단백질발현정도를확인할수있는 Western immunoblotting에서 mm 및 mm glucose를처리했을때농도의존적으로단백질이발현되는것을확인하였고단백질발현전단계인 mrna 수준에서도 mm glucose에서 mrna가발현되는것을확인하였기때문에 mm glucose에서는 real-time PCR 을시행하지않았다. 다만 mm glucose의경우에는단백질발현정도에있어통계적으로유의한결과를보이지않은부분에대해서는 TonEBP의발현이유도되는 glucose의고장성농도가얼마인지에대한추가적인실험이필요할것으로생각한다. 따라서농도별로좀더세분화하여추가실험을해본다면 TonEBP의발현이어느농도에서부터발현되는지, 그리고발현정도가농도의존성인지에대해더많은결과들을알수있을것이다. 다음으로생각해볼수있는것은 real-time PCR에서는다른경향성을보이고있다는점이다. 물론통계적으로모두유의한것은아니지만 mm Nacl, mm mannitol, mm glucose 세경우모두에서초기 시간경과후에 mrna 발현도가가장높았고이후 6시간후에는발현도가가장낮았으며이후시간이지날수록다시증가하는경향을보인점이다. 이는 Western blotting에서는초기에만발현되고 시간에이르러서는발현이모두감소했지만 real-time PCR에서는초기에발현되고중간에감소했다가 시간후에다시 mrna의발현도가증가했다는점이다. 따라서 TonEBP의 mrna 전사가단백질발현까지모두이어지지않았다고추측해볼수있으며이와관련한활성기전에있어다른조절메커니즘에의해 TonEBP의발현이중간에조절되고있다는가능성을제기해볼수있다. 다만아직까지 TonEBP의활성기전및그역할에대해서정확히알려진바가없기에이에대한추가적인연구가필요할것으로생각한다. 현재까지보고된바에따르면 TonEBP는고장성 (hypertonic) 스트레스환경에서발현되어세포사멸을막아주는역할을하고있는것으로알려졌으나다른역할로는 nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) 와같은전사인자들을활성화시키는데영향을끼치는것으로도알려졌다. NF-κB는 vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), tumor necrosis factor-α 99
