Inflammatory reaction dominated by defense response will arise against infection and trauma. As an important proinflammatory cytokine, high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is widely expressed in all nuclear cells to mediate the inflammatory response. However, the biological functions of HMGB1 in inflammation vary depending on the type of HMGB1 protein modification and the localization in the cell. HMGB1 protein will be modified as acetylation of lysine residues, methylation of lysine residues, oxidation of cysteine residues, phosphorylation of serine residues, glycosylation of asparagine residues, adenosine diphosphate-ribosylation and lactylation of the protein in the nucleus, migrate from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, and release into the extracellular compartment. Extracellular HMGB1 can bind to receptors for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) and Toll-like receptors, activate cells and regulate inflammatory responses. The authors review the research progress in regulatory mechanism of HMGB1 in inflammation response from aspects of its post-translational modifications, releases, biological roles and binding receptors, hoping to provide theoretical basis for finding the targets of inflammation intervention.
The body is in a very complex pathophysiological state under trauma, including ischemia and hypoxia, inflammation caused by infection and tissue necrosis and accumulation of metabolic waste. Metastasis associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) is involved in the regulation of a variety of cell behaviors, such as proliferation, apoptosis, differentiation, migration, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, autophagy and morphological maintenance. Under trauma, the expression of MALAT1 is significantly increased. In different injury models, the role of MALAT1 is slightly different, and the specific mechanism is unknown. The authors summarize the regulatory effects of MALAT1 on the body under traumatic conditions from the biological characteristics of MALAT1 and its role in different injury models, so as to provide references for clinical control of inflammation development and improvement of disease prognosis.
目的 模拟临床创伤休克并发脓毒性休克的情况,建立"二次休克"打击动物模型,连续观察小鼠血压和生存情况,为筛选抗休克药物提供实验动物模型.方法 采用双后肢股骨骨折加眼球放血45%建立创伤休克(TH)模型;于TH术后8h进行盲肠结扎穿孔术(CLP)构建"二次打击"模型.将70只6~8周龄成年雄性C57BL/6小鼠随机分为:创伤休克组(TH+生理盐水),模型组(TH+CLP+生理盐水),假手术组(TH+开腹腔+生理盐水),各组持续观察小鼠平均动脉血压(MPa)以及生存情况;于TH后0 h,2 h,32 h,各组分别处死5只小鼠(处死小鼠前持续观察小鼠生命状态),收集血液检测血清肌酐值.结果 各组TH后血压急剧下降,在第二次打击CLP后血压持续降低,模型组血压下降较假手术组与创伤休克组剧烈(p<0.05).与假手术组、 创伤休克组相比,模型组死亡率明显增加(p<0.05),血清肌酐值显著增高(p<0.05),经CLP后小鼠的呼吸频率增加,渐出现体温冰冷,蜷缩拥挤.结论 小鼠TH术后8 h并发脓毒性休克(即"二次休克"模型)较假手术组与创伤休克组的死亡率明显增加,血压持续下降,肾功能损害,符合临床创伤性休克并发脓毒性休克的病理生理改变,动物模型成功构建.
目的制备转录因子Musculin(MSC)敲除(knockout,KO)-叉状头转录因子家族成员3(forkhead box P3,Foxp3)-绿色荧光蛋白(green fluorescent protein,GFP)敲入(knockin,KI)小鼠模型,并初步应用于严重创伤介导调节性T细胞(regulatory T cell,Treg)-Th17失衡研究。方法通过MSCKO纯合子(homozygote,-/-)小鼠和Foxp3-GFPKI纯合子(homozygote,+/+)小鼠杂交,获取MSCKO(heterozygote,+/-)-Foxp3-GFPKI(+/-)杂合子小鼠,再按同笼兄妹近亲繁殖方法进行杂合子配对,直到获取MSCKO-Foxp3-GFPKI纯合子小鼠。将获得MSCKO-Foxp3-GFPKI小鼠连续交配5代以上,观察各代小鼠的基因型、表现型和遗传稳定性。对获取的MSCKO-Foxp3-GFPKI小鼠和Foxp3-GFPKI小鼠实施失血/骨折,3 h后取周围淋巴结(lymph nodes,LN)、肠系膜淋巴结(mesenteric lymph nodes,MLN)、肠道集合淋巴结(Peyer’s patches,PP)、脾(spleen,SP)、骨髓(bone marrow,BM)和胸腺(thymus,Thy)。流式细胞术检测机体免疫器官和组织Treg的分布变化,qPCR检测MSC、Foxp3、孤核受体-γt(orphan nuclear receptor-γt,ROR-γt)的表达水平,进一步验证MSCKO-Foxp3-GFPKI小鼠的实用性,并初步探讨MSC对严重创伤介导Treg-Th17失衡的影响。结果杂交获得的各代MSCKO-Foxp3-GFPKI纯合子小鼠均能表达各分子标志物,活力、体质量和繁育能力正常。流式细胞术检测结果显示,各免疫器官和组织中均存在不同强度的GFP信号;严重创伤3 h后,MSCKO-Foxp3-GFPKI小鼠Treg在LN、MLN、PP和SP中的百分比分别为5.81%、4.81%、1.41%和3.1%,较创伤前差异有统计学意义。qPCR检测结果显示,相对正常组而言,野生型创伤组MSC在外周淋巴器官MLN(6.154 9)和PP(7.789 7)中的相对表达量显著升高(P<0.05,P<0.01);Foxp3在MSCKO创伤组MLN(2.591 2)和PP(1.506 4)中的相对表达量上升(P<0.01),表明MSC缺失可使创伤后Treg-Th17平衡左移;而ROR-γt在同组MLN(0.5395)和PP(0.544 9)中的相对表达量下降(P<0.01),同样证实了Treg-Th17平衡发生了偏移。结论成功制备MSCKO-Foxp3-GFPKI小鼠,遗传性状稳定,分子标志物和表现型明确。严重创伤后MSC可以影响Treg的分布,并使Treg-Th17平衡发生偏移,提示MSC可能作为严重创伤后恢复机体内环境免疫稳态的潜在调节靶点。

This study was performed to establish a murine macrophage RAW264.7 cell line stably overexpressing AhR for evaluating the regulatory effects of AhR in inflammation induced by LPS stimulation.A lentiviral vector containing AhR-FIag-EGFP gene was constructed and then packaged in HEK293T cells;RAW264.7 cells were infected with collected supernatant and screened by puromycin.The gene and protein expression of AhR were analyzed by qRT-PCR and Western blotting,respectively;the expression of inflammatory cytokines were detected by qRT-PCR and ELISA.Data showed that a RAW264.7 cell strain with stable expression of AhR-Flag-EGFP was successfully constructed.Fluorescent microscopy and flow cytometry demonstrated that the expression rates of EGFP reached to 100%;the qRT-PCR and Western blot showed that the gene and protein expression of AhR were significantly upregulated in RAW/AhR group compared to RAW/Vector group.The expression of IL-6 and IL-1β in LPS-induced RAW/AhR group were much lower than that in LPS-induced RAW/Vector group.In contrast,the level of IL-10 in LPS-induced RAW/AhR group was much higher than that in LPS-induced RAW/Vector group.In conclusion,a RAW264.7 cell line stably expressing AhR has constructed,and AhR negatively regulates the LPS-induced inflammatory response in macrophages,which lay a foundation for further study AhR function.
