摘 要:目的 本研究旨在探讨靶向DEK适配体64(DTA-64)对卵清蛋白(OVA)诱导的哮喘小鼠气道炎症和EMT的抑制作用。方法 选取雌性BALB/c小鼠32只(8周龄),随机分为PBS组、 OVA模型组、 DTA-64组(1μg/只)和对照适配体组,每组8只。肺组织HE染色检测气道周围炎性细胞浸润,免疫组织化学染色检测气道周围DEK表达;ELISA检测血清IgE以及支气管肺泡灌洗液(BALF)的2型辅助T(Th2)细胞因子白细胞介素4(IL-4)、 IL-5、 IL-13以及Th1细胞因子γ干扰素(IFN-γ)水平。Western blot法检测上皮间质转化(EMT)相关蛋白α平滑肌肌动蛋白(α-SMA)、兔抗锌指转录因子(Snail+Slug)、波形蛋白(vimentin)和上皮钙黏素(E-cadherin)相关蛋白以及转化生长因子β1/Smad(TGF-β1/Smad)、丝裂原活化蛋白激酶(MAPK)、磷脂酰肌醇3激酶(PI3K)、蛋白激酶B(AKT)和哺乳动物雷帕霉素靶蛋白(mTOR)的蛋白表达;流式细胞术检测肺单细胞悬液中α-SMA,探讨DTA-64对哮喘EMT和气道重塑中的作用机制。结果 DEK蛋白在哮喘模型小鼠肺组织高表达,在DTA-64组中低表达;DTA-64能够降低气道周围嗜酸性粒细胞和中性粒细胞的浸润,下调血清OVA特异性IgE和BALF中IL-4、 IL-5、 IL-13水平,上调IFN-γ水平;DTA-64还能降低肺组织vimentin、α-SMA、 Snail+Slug表达,上调上皮标志物E-cadherin表达;DTA-64能抑制TGF-β1及其下游经典通路Smad2/3、 Smad4表达,以及非经典通路ERK1/2、 p38 MAPK、 JNK和PI3K/AKT/mTOR的磷酸化水平。结论 DTA-64可能通过阻断TGF-β1/Smad、 MAPK、 PI3K信号通路抑制OVA诱导的哮喘小鼠气道炎症和EMT的进程,从而抑制哮喘气道重塑。Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect of DEK targeting aptamer 64(DTA-64) on airway inflammation and epithelial to mesenchymal transition(EMT) induced by ovalbumin(OVA) in asthmatic mice. Methods Thirty-two female BALB/c mice(8 weeks old) were randomly divided into PBS group, OVA model group, DTA-64 group(1 μg/mouse), and control aptamer group, with 8 in each. HE staining of lung tissues was used to detect inflammatory cell infiltration around the airways;immunohistochemical staining was used to detect DEK expression around the airways;ELISA was used to detect serum IgE, and Th2-type cytokines IL-4, IL-5, IL-13 and Th1-type cytokine IFN-γ in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF);Western blot was applied to detect the EMT-related proteins α-SMA, Snail+Slug, vimentin, and E-cadherin, and TGF-β1/Smad, MAPK, PI3K, AKT, as well as mTOR in lung;and flow cytometry was used to observe the α-SMA expression in the lung single cell suspensions. Results DEK protein was highly expressed in the lung tissues of OVA group mice and decreased in the DTA-64 group mice;DTA-64 reduced the infiltration of eosinophils and neutrophils around the airways, down-regulated serum OVA-specific IgE and IL-4, IL-5, IL-13 in BALF, and up-regulated IFN-γ;DTA-64 also reduced the expressions of vimentin, α-SMA, Snail+Slug in the lung tissue, and up-regulated epithelial marker E-cadherin. DTA-64 inhibited the expressions of TGF-β1 and its downstream canonical pathways Smad2/3 and Smad4, as well as the phosphorylation of non-canonical TGF-β1 pathways ERK1/2, p38 MAPK, JNK and PI3K/AKT/mTOR. Conclusion DTA-64 may inhibit the airway inflammation and EMT induced by OVA in asthmatic mice via blocking TGF-β1/Smad, MAPK and PI3K signaling pathways, thereby alleviating airway remodeling in asthma.
