Abstract

연구목적: ADAMs은 metalloprotease/disintegrin domain을 가진 transmemebrane glycoprotein으로써 지금까지 30개 이상의 ADAM 및 10개 이상의 ADAMTS가 알려져 있다. 이들의 기능은 포유동물의 수정 시 sperm-egg binding과 fusion, myoblast fusion, integrin과의 결합 등에 직접 관여하거나, TNF-alpha 등의 생체신호전달물질이 세포로부터 분비될 때에 이들의 구조를 변화시켜 활성화시키는 효소작용, 그리고 dendritic cell differentiation 등에 관여하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 자궁내막 조직에서의 유전자 및 단백질 발현 여부에 관해서는 거의 보고되어 있지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 착상 전후 시기의 생쥐 자궁조직에서 ADAM-8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 17 그리고 ADAMTS-1의 유전자가 발현하는 지를 알아보았다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 본 연구에서는 생쥐의 자궁조직을 대상으로 ADAM-8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 17 그리고 ADAMTS-1을 선정하여, 초기 임신 기간에서의 유전자 발현 여부를 조사하였고 이 결과를 바탕으로 자궁조직에서의 이들 유전자들의 생리적인 기능을 규명하고자 하였다. 결 과: 임신한 생쥐 자궁조직에서의 ADAM-8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 17 그리고 ADAMTS-1의 유전자 및 단백질의 발현 양상을 RT-PCR 방법을 이용하여 알아본 결과, 조사된 ADAM 종류와 임신 날짜별로 다르게 나타났다. ADAM-8의 유전자 전사체는 임신 1일째 매우 강하게 발현되었으나 임신 3일째로 진행되면서 감소하다가 이후 다시 임신 5일째가 되면서 증가하는 양상을 보였다. ADAM-9, 10, 17 그리고 ADAMTS-1의 경우는 임신 1일째에서 5일째까지 유전자의 발현 양상이 크게 변하지 않았고 ADAM-12와 ADAM-15의 유전자 전사체는 임신 1일에서 5일로 진행되면서 현저하게 증가되는 양상을 보였다. 이후 임신 6일에서 8일에서는 생쥐 배아가 착상된 부위와 비 착상부위로 나누어 유전자의 발현 양상을 관찰한 결과, 조사된 ADAM 모두 비착상 부위보다 착상부위에서 유전자 전사체의 발현이 크게 증가되는 것으로 나타났다. 결 론: 이상의 결과로 미루어 ADAM 유전자는 임신초기 착상과정과 임신 단계에 따른 자궁의 조직 재구성에 중요한 역할을 할 것으로 생각된다.
