Background
Gap 26, as a connexin mimetic peptide, which has the SHVR amino acid regions contributing crucially to the docking of connexons to generate gap junctions[1]. Gap 26 can inhibit the release of ATP induced by an increase in calcium[2]. Gap 26 inhibited electrical coupling in cell pairs mediated by gap junctions[3].
Gap 26 (25μM; 24h) attenuated the apoptosis of tubular epithelial cells[4]. Gap 26 (150μM; 24h) decreased ROS production, inhibited ASK1-JNK/p38 signaling, and decreased apoptosis in the alveolar type II epithelial cells of rats (RLE-6TN)[5].
Gap 26 (1μg/kg/day; i.p. ; 3 times a week for 8 weeks) alleviated the chronotropic hyporesponsiveness and the severity of liver damage and had an antioxidant effect on the heart in cirrhotic cardiomyopathy rats model[6]. Gap 26 (25μg/kg; i.p. ; 4 day) further deteriorated the destruction of synapses and decreased the spine density of hippocampal in middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) rats model[7].

Gap 26，作为一种模拟连接蛋白的肽，含有对连接子对接生成间隙连接至关重要的SHVR氨基酸区域[1]。Gap 26可以抑制钙升高引起的ATP释放[2]。Gap 26能够抑制由连接蛋白43半通道和间隙连接通道所携带的电流[3]。
Gap 26（25μM；24h）可减少管状上皮细胞的凋亡[4]。Gap 26（150μM; 24h）可降低大鼠肺泡II型上皮细胞（RLE-6TN）的ROS生成，抑制ASK1-JNK/p38信号通路，减少凋亡[5]。
使用Gap 26（1μg/kg/day; i.p. ; 3 times a week for 8 weeks）处理肝硬化心肌病模型大鼠，Gap26可减轻大鼠的变时性反应低下和肝损害程度，并对心脏具有抗氧化作用[6]。使用Gap 26（25μg/kg; i.p. ; 4 day）处理MCAO（middle cerebral artery occlusion，大脑中动脉闭塞）模型大鼠，Gap 26进一步加重了大鼠脑中的突触破坏，降低了大鼠脑中海马棘密度[7]。
Protocol
| Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | Normal rat kidney epithelial (NRK52E) cell |
Preparation Method | NRK52E cells were cultured in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum. NRK52E cells were exposed to Gap 26 for 24h. |
Reaction Conditions | 25μM; 24h? |
Applications | Gap 26 (25μM; 24h) attenuated the apoptosis of tubular epithelial cells. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | Male CD1 mice |
Preparation Method | Rats were anesthetized with 10% chloral hydrate. Subsequently, a mid-line incision was made in the neck of rats. The right common carotid artery (CCA), external carotid artery (ECA), and internal carotid artery (ICA) were isolated. The ECA was cut approximately 4mm above the common carotid artery bifurcation. A 4.0-s nylon monofilament suture was inserted into ICA through the stump until resistance. In this way, the blood flow to the middle cerebral artery (MCA) was blocked. 2h later, the filament was taken out for reperfusion, and the incision was ligated. Gap 26 was dissolved in saline and given intraperitoneally at the dose of 25μg/kg once a day. To avoid the influence in the acute phase, we chose to apply Gap 26 from day 3 after ischemia, when the infarction volume stabilized and the repair period began. At 7 day after MCAO, rats were sacrificed, and brains were removed as soon as possible. Rapid Golgi Stain Kit was applied for tissue preparation and staining procedures. The whole Golgi-Cox staining procedures were conducted in strict accordance with instructions. Using a freezing microtome, each block was then cut coronally into 100-μm-thick serial sections starting at +1.00 to 5.00mm from the bregma. The sections were mounted onto slides and observed under a laser scanning confocal microscope. |
Dosage form | 25μg/kg; 4 day; i.p. |
Applications | Gap 26 further deteriorated the destruction of synapses and decreased the spine density of hippocampal in middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) rats model. |
