摘要
目的探讨小鼠实验性自身免疫性脑脊髓炎(EAE)模型中,外源性和内源性红细胞膜相关蛋白(ERMAP)通过白细胞介素6/信号转录及转录激活因子3(IL-6/STAT3)/维甲酸相关孤核受体γt/(ROR-γt)信号通路对辅助性T细胞17(Th17)细胞分化的影响。方法流式细胞术验证不同浓度ERMAP-Ig融合蛋白功能;琼脂糖凝胶电泳鉴定ERMAP基因敲除小鼠。流式细胞术检测ERMAP-Ig融合蛋白在体外对Th17细胞分化影响。40只6周龄普通C57BL/6小鼠随机分为2组建立EAE模型:对照(control)-Ig和ERMAP-Ig组,每组20只;记录临床评分;流式细胞术检测EAE小鼠体内Th17细胞分化情况。40只6周龄已鉴定的野生型和ERMAP基因敲除小鼠分为2组建立EAE模型:ERMAP^(+/+)和ERMAP^(-/-)组,每组20只。记录临床评分;脊髓HE和固蓝(LFB)染色并进行组织学半定量评分。流式细胞术检测IL-17A+CD4+T细胞百分比;Western blotting检测IL-6、白细胞介素17(IL-17)、STAT3、磷酸化STAT3(p-STAT3)、ROR-γt蛋白水平表达;Real-time PCR检测IL-17、肿瘤坏死因子α(TNF-α)、IL-6、STAT3和ROR-γt的mRNA表达;ELISA检测细胞水平IL-17和TNF-α的表达。结果1.外源性ERMAP-Ig融合蛋白抑制体内外Th17细胞分化且减轻小鼠EAE症状。2.与对照组相比,ERMAP^(-/-)组EAE小鼠炎性浸润和脱髓鞘症状加重,Th17分泌IL-17A增加。3.内源性ERMAP基因敲除后,IL-17、TNF-α、IL-6、STAT3及ROR-γt表达均增加。差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论ERMAP可能通过IL-6/STAT3/ROR-γt信号通路调控Th17细胞分化,参与小鼠EAE发生发展。
Objective To explore the effect of exogenous and endogenous erythrocyte membrane-associated protein(ERMAP)on helper T cell 17(Th17)cell differentiation through interleukin 6/signal transducers and activators of transcription 3/retionoid-related orphan nuclear receptor-γt(IL-6/STAT3/ROR-γt)signal pathway in the mouse model of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis(EAE).Methods Using flow cytometry to verify the function of ERMAP-Ig fusion protein at different concentrations;Agarose gel electrophoresis was performed to identify ERMAP knockout mice.Flow cytometry was performed to detect the effect of ERMAP-Ig fusion protein on Th17 cell differentiation in vitro.Forty 6-week-old normal C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into 2 groups to establish EAE models,control-Ig and ERMAP-Ig groups,with 20 mice in each group;Clinical scores were recorded;Flow cytometry was performed to detect Th17 cell differentiation in EAE mice in vivo.Forty 6-week-old identified wild-type and ERMAP knockout mice were divided into 2 groups to establish EAE models.Identified wild-type and ERMAP knockout mice were divided into 2 groups to establish EAE models,ERMAP^(+/+)and ERMAP^(-/-)groups,with 20 mice in each group.Clinical scores were recorded;Spinal cord HE and luxol fast blue(LFB)staining and histological semi-quantitative scoring were performed.Flow cytometry was performed to detect the percentage of IL-17A+CD4+T cells;Western blotting was performed to detect the expression of IL-6,IL-17,STAT3,p-STAT3,and ROR-γt protein levels;Real-time PCR was performed to detect the mRNA expression of IL-17,TNF-α,IL-6,STAT3,and ROR-γt;ELISA was performed to detect the expression of IL-17 and TNF-αat the cellular level was detected by ELISA.Results 1.Exogenous ERMAP-Ig fusion protein inhibited Th17 cell differentiation and attenuated EAE symptoms in mice.2.Compared with the control group,ERMAP^(-/-)EAE mice showed increased inflammation and demyelination symptoms and increased Th17 secretion of IL-17A.3.Endogenous ERMAP knockdown resulted in increased expression of IL-17,TNF-α,IL-6 STAT3,and ROR-γt.All differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion ERMAP may regulate Th17 cell differentiation through the IL-6/STAT3/ROR-γt signaling pathway and is involved in the development of EAE in mice.
