Abstract: Objective To investigate the effects of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) on the intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) alterations and smooth muscle α-actin (α-SMA) expression of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in mice. Methods The α-SMA expression of colonic SMCs in the BDNF+/- mice was measured by Western blotting, and was compared with that in BDNF+/+ mice. The expression of tropomyosin-related kinase B (TrkB) receptor was identified in the primary colonic SMCs of the mice by immunofluorescence staining. After administration of BDNF and TrkB receptor antagonists (K252a), the expressions of α-SMA and TrkB-PLC-Ca2+ pathway were measured by Western blotting. The alteration of[Ca2+]i was measured by[Ca2+]i imaging. Results The expression of α-SMA was obviously decreased in BDNF+/- mice compared with that in BDNF+/+ mice. The TrkB receptor was identified in the SMCs. After administration of BDNF, the expressions of α-SMA, TrkB-PLC-Ca2+ signal pathway and[Ca2+]i increased. K252a could reverse those changes. Conclusion BDNF might induce the alterations of[Ca2+]i and α-SMA expression of SMC by TrkB-PLC-Ca2+ signal pathway, which might be the mechanism to affect the gut motility.
