The aim of this study was to elucidate whether glutathione is involved in lithium's ability to decrease carbonylation and nitration produced by complex I inhibition, which is consistently found in BD. Neuroblastoma cells were treated with rotenone, a complex I inhibitor. Our results suggest that glutathione is essential for lithium's ability to ameliorate rotenone-induced protein carbonylation, but not nitration.
本研究的目的是阐明谷胱甘肽是否参与锂降低由复合体I抑制所产生的羰基化和硝化作用的能力,这种现象在双相情感障碍(BD)中一直存在。用鱼藤酮(一种复合体I抑制剂)处理神经母细胞瘤细胞。我们的结果表明,谷胱甘肽对于锂改善鱼藤酮诱导的蛋白质羰基化能力至关重要,但对硝化作用并非如此。
