Molecular Mechanism Study of Zishui Hanmu Lidan Decoction for Improving IBEC-EMT in a Mouse Model of Primary Biliary Cholangitis
摘要
Abstract
Objective To study the molecular mechanism of Zishui Hanmu Lidan Decoction(ZHLD)in improving epithelial mesenchymal transition of intrahepatic bile duct epithelial cells(IBEC-EMT)in a mouse model of primary biliary cholangitis(PBC).Methods Sixty C57BL/6 female mice were randomly divided into blank group,PBC model group(PBC group),ursodeoxycholic acid group(UDCA group),low dose group(L-ZHLD group),medium dose group(M-ZHLD group)and high dose group(H-ZHLD group),10 in each group.Except for the blank group,the other five groups established a PBC mouse model.At the same time,the same daily dose of normal saline was given to the PBC group by gastrogavage.UDCA group was given ursodeoxycholic acid capsule at 0.1 g/(kg·d)by gastrogavage.The L-ZHLD,M-ZHLD,and H-ZHLD groups were given ZHLD granule at 1,2,and 4 g/(kg·d)by gastrogavage after dilution.Serum and liver tissues were collected after 8 weeks.The expressions of serum antibodies anti-mitoehondrial M2 antibodies(AMA-M2)and anti-nuclear antibody(ANA)were detected by ELISA.HE staining was used to observe the pathological changes of liver tissue.Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expressions of cytokeratin(CK)7,CK19,Vimentin,and E-cadherin in bile duct epithelial cells.Western Blot was used to detect the expressions of p-ERK1/2,p-P38(MAPK),p-JNK,E-cadherin,and Vimentin in bile duct epithelial mesenchymal proteins.RT-PCR was used to detect the mRNA quantification of E-cadherin and Vimentin.Results Compared with the blank group,the PBC group showed proliferation of small bile ducts in the portal area,infiltration of lymphocytes and monocytes,increased expressions of CK7,CK19,p-P38MAPK,p-ERK1/2,and p-JNK proteins,increased protein and gene expressions of Vimentind,and decreased protein and gene expressions of E-Cadherin(P＜0.01).Compared with the PBC group,the infiltration of lymphocytes in the portal area decreased in the UDCA group,L,M,and H-ZHLD groups,and the expressions of CK7,CK19,and p-ERK1/2 proteins decreased.Vimentind protein and gene expressions decreased,while E-Cadherin protein and gene expressions increased(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The expressions of p-P38MAPK and p-JNK proteins decreased in the M and H-ZHLD groups(P＜0.01).Compared with the UDCA group,the infiltration of lymphocytes in the portal area was reduced in the L-,M-,and H-ZHLD groups,CK7 and p-ERK1/2 protein expression were also reduced(P＜0.01).The expressions of CK19,p-P38MAPK,and p-JNK proteins decreased in the M-and H-ZHLD groups,while the protein and gene expressions of Vimentin decreased.The protein and gene expressions of E-Cadherin increased(P＜0.01).Compared with the L-ZHLD group,CK7,CK19,p-P38MAPK,p-JNK and p-ERK1/2 protein expression were reduced in the M-and H-ZHLD groups(P＜0.01);The protein and gene expressions of Vimentin decreased(P＜0.01).The protein and gene expressions of E-Cadherin increased(P＜0.01).Conclusions ZHLD reduced the expressions of CK7,CK19 and Vimentin,up-regulated the expression of E-Cadherin,and reduced bile duct hyperplasia possibly by down-regulating the phosphorylation levels of P38-MAPK,ERK1/2,and JNK pathways,thereby regulating the IBEC-EMT of the PBC mouse model.Among the low,medium,and high doses of ZHLD,the medium dose was the best therapeutic dose to ameliorate the IBEC-EMT of PBC mouse model.关键词
