Abstract:
:In order to elucidate the mechanisms that PKCγ regulates neuropathic pain (NP), and detect proteins that are associated with the function of PKCγ in NP, we exploited a chronic constriction injury (CCI)-induced neuropathic pain rat (CCI-NP rat) model in which PKCγ knockdown in the spinal cord was successfully carried out with stable RNA interference (RNAi). The spinal cords (L4-L5) were surgically obtained from CCI-NP rats with and without PKCγ knockdown, for comparative proteomic analysis. The total proteins from the spinal cords (L4-L5) were extracted and were separated with two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DGE). 2D gel images were analyzed with PDQuest software. Nineteen differential gel-spots were identified with spot-volume increased and 17 spots with spot-volume decreased. Among them, eighteen differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) between CCI-NP rats with and without PKCγ knockout. Those DEPs are involved in transmission and modulation of noxious information; cellular homeostasis and metabolism; antioxidant proteins, heat shock proteins and chaperones; membrane receptor trafficking; and cytoskeleton. Three DEPs (SNAP-25, TERA and AR) were validated with Western blot analysis, and confirmed the DEP data. Further study showed that AR-selective inhibitor epalrestat totally turned over the upregulated expression of AR in CCI-NP rats. Those DEP data are extensively associated with the function of PKCγ that regulates NP, and would contribute to the clarification of the mechanisms of PKCγ in NP.
