多发性硬化患者中IL-12和孕酮的检测及其临床意义

目的检测IL-12和孕酮在多发性硬化(MS)患者中的水平,探讨男、女性多发性硬化患者存在的发病机制,比较男、女性MS患者在临床上发病的差异。方法采用酶联免疫(ELISA)法检测60例MS患者的脑脊液和40例患者血液中IL-12的水平,应用放射免疫法测定40例MS患者血液中孕酮的含量,并与40例正常对照组比较(以上标本男女各半)。结果男、女性MS患者血液中和脑脊液IL-12的含量明显高于正常对照组(P<0.01);女性患者血液中孕酮的含量明显低于正常对照组(P<0.01),男性患者血液中孕酮的含量与正常对照组差别不明显(P>0.05);女性患者血液中孕酮对IL-12的含量存在负相相关作用(r=-0.80,P<0.01),男性相关作用不明显(r=-0.38,P>0.05)。结论IL-12参与多发性硬化的发病过程;孕酮可能是男、女性患者发病差异性的原因之一。     

Role of intestinal bifidobacteria in the pathogenesis of gut-derived bacteria/endotoxin translocation and the effect of bifidobacterial supplement on gut barrier function following burns

Early multiple organ dysfunction syndrome appears to be facilitated with bacterial translocation in severely burn injury, yet the mechanisms of bacterial translocation remains in dispute. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential role of intestinal bifidobacteria in the pathogenesis of gut-derived bacteria/endotoxin translocation following burns and the effects of bifidobacterial supplement on gut barrier. Methods: Wistar rats were randomly divided into burn group (Burn, n=60),sham burn group (SB, n=10) in experiment Ⅰ , and burn + saline group (BS, n=30), burn + bifidobacteria group (BB, n=30), and sham-burn + saline group (SS, n= 10) in experiment Ⅱ. Animals in BB group were fed bifidobacterial preparation (5 × 109 CFU/ml) after burns, 1.5ml,twice daily. Animals in BS and SS were fed saline. Samples were taken on days 1, 3, and 5 in burn groups, and on day 3 in sham-burn groups. The incidence of bacteria/endotoxin translocation and counts of Bifidobacterium, Fungi and Escherichia coli in gut mucosa were determined with standard methods. The levels of sIgA in mucus of small intestine were measured by RIA. The positive sIgA expression in lamina propria and ileum mucosal injury was evaluated light microscopically by blinded examiners. Results: Our results showed that the incidence of bacterial translocation was increased after burns, which was accompanied by significant decrease in number of bifidobacteria but significant increase in E. coli and fungi in gut mucosa, and elevation of levels of plasma endotoxin and IL-6 (P<0. 001).The incidence of bacterial translocation was markedly reduced after 3- and 5-day supplementation of bifidobacteria compared with control group (P<0.05). The counts of mucosal bifidobacteria were increased by 4- to 40-fold,while E. coli and fungi were decreased by 2- to 30-fold and 10- to 150-fold, respectively, after bifidobacterial supplementation in contrast to control group. The damage of mucosa tended to be less pronounced after 3-day bifidobacteria-supplemented formula compared with control group [grade 2(0-6) vs. grade 4(3-6), P<0.05]. Moreover, the expression and release of sIgA was markedly augmented after 3-day bifidobacteria-supplementation formula and it returned to normal range on day 5. Conclusion: The decrease in counts and proportion of bifidobacteria in mucous membrane flora may play an important role in the development of bacteria/endotoxin translocation following thermal injury. The supplement of exogenous bifidobacteria could per se improve gut barriers, and attenuate bacteria/endotoxin translocation secondary to major burns.     

IL-2和IL-4联合诱导B细胞死亡受体CCR3的表达及其功能研究

目的　研究在IL 2和IL 4作用下 ,趋化性细胞因子受体CCR3在人生发中心 (germinalcenter,GC)B细胞上的表达及其功能特性。方法　采用流式细胞术检测人GCB细胞上CCR3表达和在CCR3配体eotaxin作用下B细胞的凋亡 ,实时定量RT PCR和Northernblot法检测GCB细胞内CCR3mRNA的表达 ,淋巴细胞趋化和黏附试验检测B细胞的趋化和黏附能力。结果　人GCB细胞极低表达趋化性细胞因子受体CCR3,经IL 2和IL 4作用后 ,GCB细胞高表达CCR3,但此时CCR3不能在其配体作用下诱导GCB细胞的趋化和黏附功能 ,而是诱导GCB细胞凋亡。结论　IL 2和IL 4联合诱导人GCB细胞CCR3表达 ,CCR3可能具有死亡受体的功能。     

白介素-12家族与实验性自身免疫性脑脊髓炎的研究进展

实验性自身免疫性脑脊髓炎(EAE)是自身反应性CD4+T细胞,即辅助性T细胞(Th细胞)介导的自身免疫性中枢神经系统脱髓鞘性炎症,在EAE的发病中,Th细胞分泌的细胞因子起了重要的调节作用。白介素-12(IL-12)家族由IL-12和最近发现的白介素-23(IL-23)、白介素-27(IL-27)组成,是一类结构相似、具有共价结合的杂化双链的细胞因子,在细胞免疫尤其是Th1型炎症反应中,起重要的调节作用。本文综合论述了IL-12家族各成员与EAE的关系的研究,揭示了各因子在EAE发生发展中的作用。
