Effects of tyrosine kinase inhibitor on ?_(1B)-AR-induced Ca~(2+)influx involved in hTrp3 protein / 中国药理学通报

ABSTRACT

AIM To investigate the role of Trp3 in the Ca 2+ influx induced by ? 1B AR in HEK293 cells and the effect of tyrosine kinase on it. METHODS With lipofect AMINE2000 reagent, hTrp3 cDNA was transfected to HEK293 cells and ? 1B HEK293 cells respectively. The expression of Trp3 was examined by Western blot. With Fura 2/AM spectrophoto fluorometry, Ca 2+ influx was determined. RESULTS HTrp3 was expressed endogenously in HEK293 cells, and the expression increased in hTrp3 transfected cells. Compared with untransfected cells, transfection of hTrp3 cDNA increased Ca 2+ influx induced by ? 1B AR ( P 0 05). 5～30 ?mol?L -1 genistein inhibited Ca 2+ influx induced by ? 1B AR in hTrp3 cDNA transfected cells and the maximum inhibitory rate was (75 2?12 6)% . CONCLUSION Transfection of hTrp3 cDNA increased Ca 2+ influx induced by ? 1B AR in HEK293 cells. This process was regulated by tyrosine kinase.
