桑色素调节mTOR/STAT3信号通路对哮喘幼年大鼠炎症反应的影响
Effect of Morin on inflammatory response in young asthmatic rats by regulating mTOR/STAT3 signaling pathway
摘要
Abstract
Objective:To investigate effect and mechanism of Morin on inflammatory response of young asthmatic rats by regu-lating mammalian target of rapamycin(mTOR)/signal transducers and activators of transcription 3(STAT3)signaling pathway.Methods:An asthma rat model was established.Experiment was separated into Control group,Model group,Morin low-dose[Morin-L,10 mg/(kg·d)]group,Morin medium dose[Morin-M,30 mg/(kg·d)]group,Morin high-dose[Morin-H,100 mg/(kg·d)]group and Morin high-dose+mTOR activator group[Morin-H+MHY-1485,100 mg/(kg·d)Morin+7 mg/(kg·d)MHY-1485]group.Enhanced expiratory interval value was detected and recorded;Total IgE,ovalbumin(OVA)specific IgE,IL-4,IL-5,IL-17,IL-13,IFN-γ and TGF-β1 levels were determined by ELISA;Giemsa staining was applied to observe and record situation of related inflammatory cells;proportion of Th1,Th2 and Th17 cells were detected by flow cytometry;HE and PAS staining were applied to observe pathologi-cal changes in lung tissue and goblet cell proliferation;GATA-binding protein 3(GATA-3)expression was detected by immunohisto-chemistry and qRT-PCR;Western blot was applied to detect expression and phosphorylation levels of mTOR and STAT3 proteins.Results:Compared with Control group,inflammatory cell infiltration was obvious in Model group,with irregular thickening of tube wall and basement membrane,obviously more goblet cells,and increased mucus secretion,Penh value,IL-4,IL-5,IL-17,IL-13,total IgE and OVA-sIgE levels,macrophages,lymphocytes,eosinophils and neutrophils numbers,Th2 and Th17 cells proportion,average optical density of GATA-3,GATA-3 mRNA and phosphorylation levels of mTOR and STAT3 were obviously increased(P<0.05),proportion of Th1 cells and IFN-γ level were significantly reduced(P<0.05).Compared with Model group,bronchial wall structure of rats in Morin-L,Morin-M and Morin-H groups was smoother and more complete,with epithelial cells arranged in a more orderly manner,moderate airway wall thickness,reduced inflammatory cell infiltration,and reduced goblet cell proliferation,Penh value,IL-4,IL-5,IL-17,IL-13,TGF-β1,total IgE and OVA-sIgE levels,numbers of macrophages,lymphocytes,eosinophils and neutrophils,proportion of Th2 and Th17 cells,average optical density of GATA-3,GATA-3 mRNA,and phosphorylation levels of mTOR and STAT3 were obviously decreased(P<0.05),proportion of Th1 cells and IFN-γ level were significantly increased(P<0.05).MHY-1485 reversed inhibitory effect of morin on inflammatory response in asthmatic rats(P<0.05).Conclusion:Morin may inhibit activation of mTOR/STAT3 signaling pathway,inhibit inflammatory response in young rats with asthma,and thereby improve asthma symptoms.关键词
