核因子-κ B(NF-κ B)是多种细胞中重要的应激诱导转录因子。在这项研究中,我们检查了肝肿瘤促进剂苯巴比妥是否可以激活肝脏中的NF-κ B。大鼠在饲料中喂食0.05%苯巴比妥3、6或10天。苄氧基试卤灵脱烷基酶活性在接受苯巴比妥的大鼠中大大增加。使用电泳迁移率变动分析测定NF-κ B的DNA结合活性。3天后,接受苯巴比妥的大鼠NF-κ B活性增加了两倍。在喂食苯巴比妥的大鼠中,NF-κ B活性在第6天和第10天继续增加,在第10天增加了4倍。冷竞争和抗体超迁移实验表明DNA结合活性对NF-κ B具有特异性。这些数据表明,苯巴比妥激活大鼠肝脏NF-κ B。(C)1996年学术出版社。
Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) is an important stress-induced transcription factor in many cell types. In this study we examined if the hepatic tumor promoting agent phenobarbital could activate NF-kappa B in the liver. Rats were fed 0.05% phenobarbital in the diet for 3, 6, or 10 days. Benzyloxyresorufin dealkylase activity was greatly increased in rats receiving phenobarbital. The DNA binding activity of NF-kappa B was determined using electrophoretic mobility shift assays. After 3 days NF-kappa B activity was increased two-fold in rats receiving phenobarbital. NF-kappa B activity continued to increase at 6 and 10 days in rats fed phenobarbital, with a four-fold increase seen at day 10. Cold competition and antibody supershift experiments showed the DNA binding activity to be specific for NF-kappa B. These data show that phenobarbital activates hepatic NF-kappa B in rats.
