【摘要】 目的:运用逆转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)测定IL-23p19、IL-17、IL-6在慢性EAE模型C57BL/6小鼠脑组织中的动态表达变化,并用TGF-β1进行干预,观察其变化,以探讨IL-23/Th17细胞炎症轴在慢性EAE病程中的作用。方法:72只近交系清洁级8-10周健康雌性C57BL/6J小鼠,随机分为佐剂组、致病组、干预组和假干预组。各组小鼠又分为发病初、发病高峰和慢性期组。致病组用人工合成的MOG35-55和自制的完全弗氏佐剂免疫C57BL/6J小鼠制成慢性EAE动物模型。干预组在免疫同时,每只小鼠注射TGF-β1。假干预组在免疫同时注入PBS作为干预组对照。佐剂组注入完全弗氏佐剂。按Benson评分标准做EAE严重性的临床评估。用RT-PCR技术检测佐剂对照组、致病组、干预组和假干预组发病初、发病高峰和慢性期组脑组织IL-17、IL-23p19、IL-6mRNA的表达变化。结果:1动物模型:慢性EAE致病组在第一次免疫后14-20天发病,20-24天达高峰,28-32天缓解,发病小鼠体重明显减轻;干预组体重减轻,13-17天发病,17-22天到达高峰,更易趋于缓解。假干预组临床表现和发病特点同致病组。佐剂组体重呈增加趋势,Benson标准评分为0分。2 RT-PCRIL-23p19、IL-6和IL-17mRNA在佐剂组呈低表达,在假干预组各期表达与致病组无差异(P>0.05)。2.1致病组IL-23p19发病初期表达升高;高峰期表达有下降(两者相比有统计学意义,P<0.05);慢性期表达下降,但和高峰期无明显统计学差异(P>0.05)。干预组IL-23p19表达,在各期均较致病组下降,并有统计学差异(P<0.05)。2.2致病组IL-17在发病初期表达升高,高峰期升高明显(相比有统计学差异,P<0.05),缓解期下降,但与高峰期相比无统计学差异(P>0.05)。假干预组各期表达与致病组无差异(P>0.05)。干预组IL-17表达在发病初期升高,但与致病组没有统计学差异。在发病高峰期升高较致病组明显,并有统计学差异(P<0.05),在缓解期较致病组表达下降,并有统计学差异(P<0.05)。2.3致病组IL-6表达在发病初期就已升高,高峰期升高明显,缓解期无明显下降,三时期比较无明显统计学意义(P>0.05)。假干预组各期表达与致病组无差异(P>0.05)。干预组IL-6的表达,在发病初期、高峰期和缓解期表达均较相应致病组升高,并有统计学差异(P<0.05)。结论:1慢性EAE中IL-17表达和疾病严重程度密切相关,而IL-23p19在早期的免疫启动中可能发挥着关键性的作用。2外源性TGF-β1可能通过抑制IL-23p19和促进IL-17的产生对慢性EAE产生双重作用。3 IL-6在慢性EAE病程中发挥着重要的作用。
【Abstract】 Objective To investigate the changes of IL-23p19, IL-17, IL-6mRNA expression in brains of induced chronic non-remitting model ofexperimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), and discuss themechanism of IL-23/Th17cells axis on EAE/MS.Methods 72 adult female C57BL/6 mice were randomly dividedinto the adjuvant -control group, EAE groups, TGF-β1 treatmentgroups, treatment-control groups. MOG35-55 and CFA were injected intosubcutaneous in EAE groups. Animals in TGF-β1 treatment groupsreceived TGF-β1 subcutaneous injection. In addition to immunization,PBS was injected subcutaneously in the treatment-control groups. At theonset, peak and chronic post-immunization, the group mice weresacrificed. The expression of IL-23p19, IL-17, IL-6 mRNA in brainwere detected by using RT-PCR..Results 83.3% mice in EAE groups were developed aprogressive paralysis, which peaked at 20-24 days, and then exhibited achronic disease with a partial clinical recovery. In contrast, 88.9% micein TGF-β1 treatment groups developed the ealier progressive paralysis,which peaked at 17-22 days, and were more prone to recovery. There wereno remarkable difference between EAE and treatment-control groups.The expression of IL-23p19 mRNA of brains in EAE groups increased at early, followed by a descent in the peak phase and chronicphase(p<0.05) In TGF-β1 treatment groups, The expression ofIL-23p19 mRNA in each phase dramatically deceased (p<0.05) incontrast to the EAE groups.The expression of IL-17 mRNA of brains in EAE groupsincreased at the peak phase, while the expression of IL-17 mRNA inTGF-β1 increased dramaticly in the TGF-β1 treatment groups(p<0.05).There was statistically difference in the expression of IL-6 betweenthe EAE group and the TGF-β1 treatment group(p<0.05).The differencebetween the different phase in the same group was not prominent(p>0.05)Conclusion1. The expression of IL-17 was correlated with the severity ofdisease,while the expression of IL-23p19 may play an important role inthe initiation of disease.2. Exogenous TGF-β1 may suppress the expression of IL-23p19and promote the expression of IL-17.3. IL-6 may play an important role in the different phase of EAE.
