摘要

二十二碳六烯酸 ( Docosahexaenoic acid, DHA ) 和視網酸 ( Retinoic acid, RA ) 在大腦神經發育過程皆扮演重要角色，具有促進神經細胞生成 ( neurogenesis )、分化 ( differentiation )、神經元軸突生長 ( neurite outgrowth ) 等功能。RA 可透過 RAR-RXR受體影響基因轉錄活性，DHA 也是 RXR的配體之一，故本論文以 RA 的面向切入，使用人類神經母細胞瘤 SH-SY5Y 細胞株，探討神經細胞發育過程 DHA 對由 RA 所誘導的細胞分化之形態和神經相關蛋白質表現的影響；結果顯示，隨著 RA 處理天數增加 ( 3 - 12 天 ) 及濃度 ( 0 - 10 μM ) 增加，最大神經元軸突長度 ( maximum neurite length ) 及神經元軸突長度總和 ( total neurite length ) 有顯著增加情形，在 RA 誘導分化的情況，添加 DHA 可使最大神經元軸突長度及神經元軸突長度總和顯著增加；蛋白質表現方面，RA 誘導分化下添加 DHA 可使 GAP-43、BDNF、TrkB 及 CaMKIIα 等蛋白質表現量顯著增加。
利用雌鼠在懷孕泌乳期給予缺乏 n-3 PUFA 飲食 ( 占總攝取熱量的 0.13 % ) 或足夠 n-3 PUFA 飲食 ( 占總攝取熱量的 0.6% )，探討其子代在大腦發育時期 DHA 缺乏情況對腦部皮質與海馬迴內神經相關蛋白質表現的影響；結果顯示，皮質與海馬迴內神經相關蛋白質表現會隨著出生天數而增加；缺乏 n-3 PUFA 飲食組別的腦部 DHA 含量比起足夠 n-3 PUFA 飲食組別顯著較低，且海馬迴 GAP-43、TrkB、PSD-95 與皮質 Synapsin I 的蛋白質表現量也顯著較低。
本論文發現，DHA 可促進由 RA 所誘導的神經元軸突生長，並增加神經分化指標、生長相關及突觸功能性蛋白質的表現；大鼠大腦發育時期若缺乏 DHA會造成腦部神經分化指標、生長相關及突觸功能性蛋白質的表現降低。

Retinoic acid ( RA ) is essential for neuronal development. Docosahexaenoic acid ( DHA, 22:6n-3 ) accumulates rapidly during brain development and is one of ligand of retinoic receptors. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of DHA on RA-induced neurite outgrowth and neuronal protein expression in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cell line and the developing rats. SH-SY5Y was cultured in 0 - 10 μM RA or / and 10 μM DHA in 1% FBS with DMEM / F12 medium for 3 - 12 days. The RA-induced total neurite length and maximum neurite length were significantly increased with increasing incubation time and RA concentration. The GAP43, BDNF, TrkB, synapsin I and CaMKIIα protein expression were significantly increased with increasing RA concentration. DHA significantly enhanced RA-induced total neurite length and maximum neurite length as well as GAP43, BDNF, TrkB, PSD-95 and CaMKIIα protein expression in SH-SY5Y. In studying the developing brain, rats exposed to a corn oil-based n-3 fatty acid-deficient diet or the same diet supplemented with n-3 fatty acid-enriched fish oil as an n-3 fatty acid-adequate diet from in utero via maternal intake. The pups were sacrificed at age of 0, 7, 14 and 21 days old. The expression of GAP-43, TrkB, NR2A, GluR1, PSD-95, synapsin I, CaMkIIα were significantly increased gradually from age of 0 to 21 days old in cortex and hippocampus. The rats exposed to n-3 fatty acid-adequate diet showed significantly higher GAP43, TrkB and PSD-95 in hippocampus compared to the rats exposed to n-3 fatty acid-deficient diet. This study suggests that RA and DHA are important for, especially, DHA enhanced RA-induced neurite outgrowth and neuronal protein expression during neuronal developing.
