摘要
雷帕霉素(Rapamycin, Rap)是一种免疫抑制剂，在临床上主要应用于器官移植过程中的抗排异反应，同时，Rap在抗癌、神经保护和抗衰老等领域也展现出巨大潜力。通过抑制哺乳动物Rap靶蛋白(mammalian target of Rapamycin, mTOR)活性，Rap能够活化调节溶酶体功能的转录因子EB (transcription factor EB, TFEB)从而上调溶酶体功能，同时，Rap也能够去除mTOR对ULK1 (unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 1)的抑制效果从而促进自噬。最新研究显示，Rap能够直接激活溶酶体钙离子通道TRPML1，此效应并不依赖于mTOR；TRPML1通道的开放可释放溶酶体钙离子，钙调神经磷酸酶(Calcineurin)作为此溶酶体来源的钙信号的感受器活化TFEB，进而增强溶酶体功能并促进自噬。此发现拓宽了对Rap药理学机制的认知，为衰老等领域的机制研究提供了理论基础。本文将以经典的Rap-mTOR-ULK1/TFEB信号通路为导引，详细介绍溶酶体钙离子通道TRPML1被确认为Rap新靶标的论证过程，并简要讨论此新信号通路(Rap-TRPML1-Calcineurin-TFEB)的药理学意义。

Abstract
Rapamycin (Rap) is an immunosuppressant, which is mainly used in the anti-rejection of organ transplantation. Meanwhile, it also shows great potential in the fields of anticancer, neuroprotection and anti-aging. Rap can inhibit the activity of mammalian target of Rap (mTOR). It activates the transcription factor EB (TFEB) to up-regulate lysosomal function and eliminates the inhibitory effect of mTOR on ULK1 (unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 1) to promote autophagy. Recent research showed that Rap can directly activate the lysosomal cation channel TRPML1 in an mTOR-independent manner. TRPML1 activation releases lysosomal calcium. Calcineurin functions as the sensor of the lysosomal calcium signal and activates TFEB, thus promoting lysosome function and autophagy. This finding has greatly broadened and deepened our understanding of the pharmacological roles of Rap. In this review, we briefly introduce the canonical Rap-mTOR-ULK1/TFEB signaling pathway, and then discuss the discovery of TRPML1 as a new target of Rap and the pharmacological potential of this novel Rap-TRPML1-Calcineurin-TFEB pathway.


Key words: Rapamycin; mammalian target of Rapamycin; ULK1; TRPML1; transcription factor EB; autophagy
