摘要:

文题释义:
NOD样受体:即核酸结合与寡聚化结构域样受体,可识别病毒的病原相关分子模式。众所周知,NOD样受体调控炎性体的形成,诱导产生白细胞介素1β和白细胞介素18,从而参与炎症反应。
NOD样受体蛋白3炎症体:由NOD样受体蛋白3利用自体寡聚化形成蛋白支架,通过含有CARD结构域的凋亡相关点状蛋白募集Caspase-1所组成的高分子蛋白复合体。NOD样受体蛋白3是目前研究最为广泛和深入的炎症体,也是目前的研究热点。

背景:NOD样受体蛋白3炎症体是细胞抵御外来病原入侵的重要炎性因子,前期研究已证实其在牙髓成纤维细胞中有表达,然而炎症环境下牙髓成纤维细胞NOD样受体蛋白3炎症体相关分子的转录调节机制尚不清楚。
目的:阐明炎症环境下牙髓成纤维细胞中NOD样受体蛋白3炎症体相关分子的转录调节机制。
方法:选择第4代牙髓成纤维细胞,分6组:A组正常培养,不进行任何处理;B组加入脂多糖刺激6 h;C组加入Toll样受体4特异性抑制剂处理1 h,再加入Toll样受体4特异性抑制剂与脂多糖混合溶液处理6 h;D组加入髓样分化因子88特异性抑制剂处理1 h,再加入髓样分化因子88特异性抑制剂与脂多糖混合溶液处理6 h;E组加入核因子κB特异性抑制剂处理1 h,再加入核因子κB特异性抑制剂与脂多糖混合溶液处理6 h;F组加入髓样分化因子88特异性抑制剂阴性对照处理1 h,再加入髓样分化因子88特异性抑制剂阴性对照与脂多糖混合溶液处理6 h。采用RT-PCR检测NOD样受体蛋白3、Caspase-1与白细胞介素1β mRNA的表达,Western blot检测NOD样受体蛋白3与Caspase-1蛋白表达,ELISA法检测白细胞介素1β释放水平。
结果与结论:①与A组比较,B组NOD样受体蛋白3、Caspase-1及白细胞介素1β mRNA表达水平升高(P < 0.05);与B组比较,C-E组NOD样受体蛋白3、白细胞介素1β mRNA表达水平降低(P < 0.05),C组Caspase-1 mRNA表达水平降低(P < 0.05);②与A组比较,B组NOD样受体蛋白3、Caspase-1蛋白表达升高(P < 0.05);与B组比较,C-E组NOD样受体蛋白3蛋白表达降低(P < 0.05),C组Caspase-1蛋白表达降低(P < 0.05);③与A组比较,B组白细胞介素1β水平升高(P < 0.05);与B组比较,C-E组白细胞介素1β水平降低(P < 0.05);④结果表明,脂多糖通过TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB信号通路上调牙髓成纤维细胞内NOD样受体蛋白3和白细胞介素1β的表达。

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptor protein 3 inflammasome is an important inflammatory factor for cellular defense against various pathogens, which has been confirmed to be expressed in dental pulp fibroblasts. However, the mechanisms underlying the transcription regulation of NOD-like receptor protein 3 inflammasome in dental pulp fibroblasts under inflammation remains unclear.
OBJECTIVE: To elucidate the mechanisms underlying the transcription regulation of NOD-like receptor protein 3 inflammasome in dental pulp fibroblasts under inflammation.
METHODS: The 4th generation dental pulp fibroblasts were divided into six groups. Group A was cultured normally without any treatment. Group B was simulated with lipopolysaccharide for 6 hours. Group C was treated with a specific inhibitor of Toll-like receptor 4 for 1 hour, and then it was also treated with a mixed solution of Toll-like receptor 4 specific inhibitor and lipopolysaccharide for 6 hours. Group D was treated with a specific inhibitor of myeloid differentiation factor 88 for 1 hour, and then treated with a mixed solution of specific inhibitor of myeloid differentiation factor 88 and lipopolysaccharide for 6 hours. Group E was treated with a specific inhibitor of nuclear factor κB for 1 hour, and then treated with a mixture solution of specific inhibitor of nuclear factor κB and lipopolysaccharide for 6 hours. Group F was treated with a negative control of myeloid differentiation factor 88 specific inhibitor for 1 hour, and then treated with a mixed solution of myeloid differentiation factor 88 specific inhibitor negative control and lipopolysaccharide for 6 hours. Real-time polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the mRNA expression of NOD-like receptor protein 3, Caspase-1 and interleukin 1β. Western bolt was used to detect the expression of NOD-like receptor protein 3 and Caspase-1. And enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the release level of interleukin 1β.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with group A, the mRNA expression of NOD-like receptor protein 3, Caspase-1 and interleukin 1β was increased in group B (P < 0.05), while compared with group B, the mRNA expression of NOD-like receptor protein 3 and interleukin 1β was decreased in groups C-E (P < 0.05), and the mRNA expression of Caspase-1 was also decreased in group C (P < 0.05). Compared with group A, the protein expression of NOD-like receptor protein 3 and Caspase-1 was increased in group B (P < 0.05), while compared with group B, the protein expression of NOD-like receptor protein 3 was decreased in groups C-E (P < 0.05), and the protein expression of Caspase-1 was also decreased in group C (P < 0.05). Compared with group A, the level of interleukin 1β was increased in group B (P < 0.05), while compared with group B, the levels of interleukin 1β were decreased in groups C-E (P < 0.05). All these findings indicate that lipopolysaccharide upregulates the expression of NOD-like receptor protein 3 and interleukin 1β in dental pulp fibroblasts through the Toll-like receptor 4/myeloid differentiation factor 88/nuclear factor-kappa B signaling pathway.

Key words: dental pulp fibroblasts, innate immunity, nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor 4, nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 3 inflammasome, signaling pathway, interleukin 1β, nuclear factor κB
