摘要:: It has been postulated that opiates induce addictive behaviour via changes in gene expression. PC12 cells were stably transfected with the recombinant human mu-opioid receptor (MOR) to study opioid-induced gene expression. Expression was verified by binding assay, immunocytochemistry, and immunblotting experiments. Forskolin-induced cAMP formation was inhibited by [D-Ala(2), N-Me-Phe(4), Gly(5)-ol]-enkephalin (DAMGO 1 microM), a specific MOR agonist. This effect was completely antagonized by naloxone. By using cDNA arrays, including approximately 1,200 well-defined genes normally expressed in neural tissue, we monitored semi-quantitative changes in gene expression after 3 h short-term exposure to DAMGO. Incubation with DAMGO increased mRNA levels for 13 genes and down-regulated 13 other genes. Annexin V, RGS4 and CREB genes showed pronounced increase in expression after stimulation with DAMGO. Quantitative RT-PCR confirmed that DAMGO increased mRNA levels of Annexin V, an apoptosis-induced gene. We suggest that the PC12 cell transfected with the recombinant human MOR is a useful tool for identification of opioid-induced genes that may provide information on opiate effects of relevance for dependence.
