Beta-arrestins, originally discovered as molecules that bind to and desensitize the activated and phosphorylated form of the G protein-coupled beta2-adrenergic receptor (β2-AR), have recently emerged as multifunctional adaptor/scaffold proteins that dynamically assemble a wide range of multiprotein complexes. Furthermore, beta-arrestin 2 knockout animals had been found failure to develop the signs of allergic asthma (airway hyperreactivity). We conducted this study to survey the association between the levels of beta-arrestin 2 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and clinopathological manifestations of asthma in Taiwanese children. Methods This study included children with (1) asthma or allergic rhinitis, (2) atopic dermatitis but without asthma or allergic rhinitis, and (3) normal control. They all received blood sampling for detecting β-arrestin 2 in PBMCs (peripheral blood mononuclear cells) by WB (Western blots) or FACS (Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting). The asthma severity, eosinophil count, total IgE, specific IgE, cytokines, and lung function were also recorded. Results 95 Taiwan children are evaluated including 11 healthy children, 83 patients with asthma and only 1 child with atopic dermatitis. In the WB groups, the mean level of β-arrestin 2 in the asthmatic children was higher than the level of β-arrestin 2 in the only one child with atopic dermatitis. In our FACS results, the b-arrestin 2 amounts were higher in children with mild persistent asthma than mild intermittent asthma.(p=0.054) The expression level of β-arrestin 2 has a significantly positive correlation with total IgE (r=0.254, p=0.028). Conclusions Our study was the first report about that β-arrestin 2 may be involved in asthma by studying PBMCs in human. The serum levels of total IgE was a predictive factor of the expression of β-arrestin 2. The levels of eosinophil counts had interaction effect between the levels of b-arrestin 2 and total IgE.口試委員會審定書 i 誌謝 ii 中文摘要 iii 英文摘要 v 目錄 vii 圖目錄 ix 表目錄 xi 第一章 緒論 1 1.1 研究背景與文獻探討 1 1.1.1 氣喘疾病簡介 1 1.1.2 G -蛋白偶聯受體於結構生物學的新進展 1 1.1.3 乙型制動素-2 2 1.2 欲研究的問題及其重要性 4 1.3 研究假說 5 1.4 研究目的 5 第二章 研究方法與材料 7 2.1 個案收集(Patients) 7 2.1.1 研究架構 7 2.1.2 診斷策略(Diagnostic Strategies) 8 2.2 實驗方式 9 2.2.1 實驗工具 9 2.2.2 細胞分離與蛋白質濃度測定 10 2.2.3 西方點墨法 11 2.2.4 螢光激活細胞分選術(Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting,FACS) 13 2.2.5 酵素結合免疫吸附分析法 (ELISA) 15 2.3 統計分析 16 第三章 研究結果 17 3.1 第一部份 西方點墨法 17 3.1.1 收案孩童的臨床特徵與實驗數據 17 3.2 第二部份 流速細胞儀分析(FACS analysis of intracellular βarrestin 2 in PBMN) 18 3.2.1 本研究收案孩童的臨床特徵與實驗數據 18 3.2.2 愈嚴重的氣喘病童其血球中乙型制動素-2 蛋白質的表現量愈高 20 3.3 第三部份 依據塵蟎過敏嚴重程度分組後臨床數據比較 21 第四章 討論 22 4.1 第一節 22 4.2 第二節 23 4.3 第三節 27 4.4 第四節 28 第五章 展望 29 第六章 參考文獻 311904040 bytesapplication/pdf論文使用權限:同意有償授權(權利金給回饋本人)氣喘孩童乙型制動素-2總免疫球蛋白E西方點墨法螢光激活細胞分選術[SDGs]SDG3台灣氣喘孩童血液中乙型制動素-2濃度高低與氣喘嚴重度及其臨床表徵之關聯性The association analysis of levels of beta-arrestin 2 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and clinopathological manifestations of asthma in Taiwan children.thesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/264379/1/ntu-103-P98421021-1.pdf
