摘要
目的探讨单核细胞趋化蛋白-1(monocyte chemoattractant protein-1,MCP-1)在实验性自身免疫性脑脊髓炎(ex-perimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis,EAE)大鼠血清中的动态变化及意义。方法以豚鼠脊髓匀浆(guinea pig spinal cord homogenate,GPSCH)加完全弗氏佐剂(complete freund’s adjuvant,CFA)作为抗原,给予Wistar大鼠四足皮内注射,建立EAE模型。采用双抗体夹心法酶联免疫吸附实验(ELISA)检测EAE大鼠免疫后7、14、21d不同时间段血清中MCP-1水平。结果EAE组免疫后第7天血清MCP-1水平即出现明显升高,早于临床症状的发生;免疫后第14天随着EAE大鼠进入症状高峰期,血清MCP-1水平亦达高峰;免疫后第21天MCP-1水平恢复到正常水平。与NS组和佐剂(CFA)组比较,EAE组大鼠免疫后第7、14天MCP-1水平显著性增高(P<0.01),并且EAE组大鼠免疫后第14天MCP-1水平与临床评分呈显著正相关(r=0.8993,P=0.0001)。结论MCP-1在EAE免疫学发病机制中具有重要作用,为深入研究多发性硬化(multiple sclerosis,MS)的发病机理及探索新的有效治疗途径提供了理论依据。
Objective To study the dynamic changes of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1 ) in sera of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) rats and its significance. Methods All experimental Wistar rats were inoculated intradermicly in the feet with emulsion containing guinea pig spinal cord homogenate (GPSCH) and complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA). The level of serum MCP-1 in EAE rats was detected by sandwich-enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) on days 7, 14, and 21 post inlmunization. Results The level of serum MCP-1 in EAE group was increased on day 7 post immunization, which was prior to the onset of clinical symptoms. The level of serum MCP-1 reached its climax concurrently with symptom peak of EAE rats on day 14, and then grew to normal level on day 21. The level of serum MCP-1 of EAE group on day 7 and 14 was significantly higher than that of NS group and CFA group ( P 〈 0.01 ). There was a significantly positive correlation between clinical scores and MCP-1 expression on day 14( r = 0. 8993, P = 0. 0001 ). Coneluslon MCP-1 plays an important role in the immunopathogenesis of EAE. This experiment offers theoretical evidence for further study on pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS) and gives the clues for searching new effective therapeutic approaches of MS.
