摘要:脂肪组织作为能量调节的重要组织,其氧耗速率可以间接反映代谢状态。本实验利用药物处理结合呼吸追踪指示脂肪组织的线粒体代谢状态 (Ding等,2018)。我们反复试验发现,果蝇幼虫脂肪组织对解偶联剂FCCP几乎没有响应,因此将检测程序简化为一步处理,只检测“基础呼吸水平”和“非线粒体呼吸水平”。

材料与试剂

  1. 果蝇幼虫
  2. Schneider's Medium (Gibco, catalog number: 10902-088)
  3. 丙酮酸钠
  4. NaOH
  5. Antimycin A (Sigma)
  6. Rotenone (Sigma)
  7. Assay Medium (AM) (见溶液配方)
  8. Antimycin A/Rotenone混合溶液 (见溶液配方)

仪器设备

  1. Seahorse XF24 Extracellular Flux Analyzer (Seahorse Bioscience) 
  2. 胰岛板 (Seahorse Bioscience)
  3. 探针板 (Seahorse Bioscience)
  4. 水化板 (Seahorse Bioscience)
  5. CO2培养箱

实验步骤

  1. 实验前将探针板扣于水化板 (如图1,每孔含500 μl校准液),置于预处理工作站37 °C无CO2培养箱中水化孵育过夜。

  2. 实验当天,在Assay Medium (AM) (溶液配方1)中解剖幼虫 (L3) 脂肪组织,将解剖出来的组织置于胰岛板样孔 (盛有500 μl AM),用迷你网筛将组织固定在样孔底部。建议每孔盛放不少于3只幼虫的组织。由于成虫脂肪组织解剖难度太大,从解剖收集样品到上机步骤间耗时过长,这样可能会影响组织活度,因此不建议用成虫脂肪组织进行该实验。
  3. 用AM配制Antimycin A/Rotenone混合溶液 (溶液配方2)。以每56 μl/孔将混合溶液加入加药孔中,保证最终每孔给药浓度为12 μM Antimycin A和3 μM Rotenone。
  4. 将探针板置于盛有样品的胰岛板之上,进Seahorse XF24 Extracellular Flux Analyzer进行呼吸监测,全程在室温进行,整体上机监测时长不宜超过120分钟。
  5. 呼吸监测完毕后将胰岛板取出,每个样孔里的组织独立回收进行Bradford蛋白含量测定。最终的相对耗氧率用呼吸指数除以该样品所含蛋白量表示。其中,在加药前所得曲线为“基础呼吸水平”,加药后所得稳定曲线值为“非线粒体呼吸水平”。

溶液配方

  1. Assay Medium
    Schneider's Medium加入2 mM丙酮酸钠配制,用NaOH调pH至6.5~6.8
  2. Antimycin A/Rotenone混合溶液
    949 μl AM
    48 μl 2.5 mM Antimycin A
    3 μl 10 mM Rotenone
