摘要: 目的 观察异基因间充质干细胞(MSCs)移植干预原发性胆汁性胆管炎(PBC)小鼠对肝内胆管上皮细胞(IBECs)自噬的调控作用及其分子机制。方法 将30只C57BL/6小鼠随机分为模型组(n=18)、BSA组(n=6)和未处理组(n=6)。采用2-辛炔酸结合牛血清白蛋白(2-OA-BSA)注射诱导PBC模型。再将PBC模型小鼠随机分为模型组(PBC组,n=4)、MSCs移植干预组(MSCs组,n=6)和转录激活因子3(STAT3)抑制剂干预组(Stattic组,n=6)。采用灌流法分离肝内胆管树纯化IBECs,采用WB法检测IBECs组织STAT3/pSTAT3、p62、LC3、PKR/pPKR、Beclin-1蛋白、eIF2α/peIF2α、LAMP-1表达,采用RT-PCR法检测STAT3、LC3和p62-mRNA,使用电镜观察IBECs内自噬泡形成。结果 模型组肝组织汇管区淋巴细胞浸润并有散在的肉芽肿形成,而MSCs和Stattic干预组小鼠汇管区炎性细胞浸润减少;模型组小鼠IBECs自噬蛋白Beclin-1、STAT3和pSTAT3表达较BSA组增强,而MSCs移植和Stattic干预组上述蛋白表达减弱;模型组和MSCs组p62 mRNA水平较BSA组下降,模型组STAT3 mRNA水平较BSA组下降。结论 我们成功建立了2-OA-BSA诱导的PBC小鼠模型,MSCs移植干预通过下调STAT3表达减轻了PBC小鼠肝组织汇管区损害,可能与调控小鼠体内自噬相关蛋白表达有关。

Abstract: Objectiv To establish a reliable animal model of primary biliary cholangitis(PBC) and to investigate the therapeutic effect of umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSC) on STAT3 signal in intrahepatic biliary epithelial cells(IBECs) of this PBC animal. Methods C57BL/6 mice were intraperitoneally injected with 2-octynyl acid (2-OA)-bovine serum albumin (BSA) adjuvanted with Freund's adjuvant/incomplete Freund's adjuvant (CFA/IFA) or with same amount of BSA adjuvanted with IFA,or untreated as control. The model mice 22 weeks later were randomly divided into model (n=4),MSCs transplantation (n=6) and STAT3 inhibitors-treated group(n=6). The intrahepatic biliary tree and IBECs were obtained,and STAT3/pSTAT3,p62,LC3,PKR/pPKR,Beclin-1,eIF2α/peIF2α and LAMP-1 expression were detected by WB,and STAT3,LC3 and p62-mRNA were detected by RT-PCR. Results The lymphocyte infiltration and granuloma in portal area were found in liver tissues of model mice,while they were obviously alleviated in MSCs-or Stattic-intervened groups;the expressions of Beclin-1,STAT3 and pSTAT3 in IBECs from model intensified as compared to those in BSA-treated group,while they were weaken in MSCs-or Stattic-intervened groups;p62 mRNA levels decreased in model and MSC transplanted grous as compared to that in BSA-treated group,and STAT3 mRNA level in model decreased as compared to that in BSA-treated group. Conclusion Our findings indicate that MSC transplantation might regulate the autophagy and decrease the expression of STAT3 signals in mice with primary biliary cholangitis.
