摘要: 巨噬细胞表达基因1(macrophage-expressed gene 1,Mpeg1)编码蛋白是攻膜复合物/穿孔素(membrane attack complex/perforin,MACPF)超家族中的一种穿孔蛋白,广泛存在于动物体内,被认为是现存最古老的MACPF穿孔蛋白。Mpeg1参与宿主先天性免疫,对细菌、病毒和寄生虫均具有杀伤作用。在抗菌免疫中,高表达Mpeg1的细胞可抵御胞内菌、胞外菌、耐酸菌、耐药菌等各种致病菌,这种广谱杀菌活性限制病原菌在宿主体内传播和感染,并间接抑制慢性进行性疾病的发展。在抗寄生虫免疫中,Mpeg1能直接杀伤刺激隐核虫和迈阿密虫等原虫。在抗病毒免疫中,细胞因子诱导表达Mpeg1以抵御病毒感染。近几年的研究表明,Mpeg1还在炎症反应、抗原呈递和一些肿瘤疾病的初步诊断中发挥重要作用。Mpeg1发挥病原清除作用的分子机制为:被诱导表达的Mpeg1通过泛素化在细胞内再分布,最终在溶酶体中与病原体共定位,酸性环境触发Mpeg1在细菌表面打孔,各种抗微生物效应物进入病原菌共同参与病原清除。笔者对Mpeg1编码蛋白的发现、病原清除及其他免疫相关功能及其分子作用机制进行综述,以期为Mpeg1的深入研究和应用提供参考。

Abstract: Macrophage-expressed gene 1 (Mpeg1) protein is a pore-forming protein belonging to the membrane attack complex/perforin (MACPF) superfamily.It is widely found in animals and is considered to be the oldest MACPF pore-forming protein in existence.Mpeg1 is involved in host innate immunity by killing bacteria,viruses and parasites.In antimicrobial immunity,cells with high expression of Mpeg1 can resist variety of pathogens such as intracellular bacteria,extracellular bacteria,acid-resistant bacteria and drug-resistant bacteria.In the host,the spread and infection of pathogens is limited and the development of chronic progressive diseases is inhibited indirectly by this broad-spectrum bactericidal activity.In anti-parasitic immunity,Mpeg1 can directly kill Cryptocaryon irritans,Miamiensis avidus and other protozoa.In antiviral immunity,cytokines induce the expression of Mpeg1 to resist viral infection.The studies in recent years have shown that Mpeg1 plays an important role in inflammatory response,antigen presentation and initial diagnosis of some tumor diseases.The molecular mechanism of Mpeg1 in pathogen clearance:The induced expression of Mpeg1 is redistributed in cells through ubiquitination and finally co-localized with pathogens in lysosomes,the acidic environment triggers Mpeg1 to form pores on the surface of bacteria,various antimicrobial effectors enter pathogens to participate in pathogen clearance.The discovery,pathogen clearance and other immune-related functions,and its molecular mechanisms were reviewed in this article,in order to provide reference for the further research and application of Mpeg1.
