摘要
目的:探讨中和白细胞介素(IL)-23是否影响血管紧张素Ⅱ诱导的动脉粥样硬化进程及可能机制。方法:10周龄雄性ApoE-/-小鼠随机分为两组,给予8周西方高脂饮食的同时皮下植入血管紧张素Ⅱ微泵,分别经腹腔注射抗IL-23p19中和抗体和同型对照抗体。8周后处死小鼠,检测血压、心率、斑块面积、Th1和Th17比例、组织和循环炎性因子的表达。结果:抗IL-23p19中和抗体不影响小鼠血压和心率;抗IL-23p19中和抗体处理显著减少斑块面积,降低Th1和Th17比例,下调组织和循环促炎因子干扰素-γ、IL-6、IL-17、肿瘤坏死因子-α水平。结论:中和IL-23通过抑制炎症反应延缓血管紧张素Ⅱ诱导的动脉粥样硬化进程。
Objective:To investigate whether neutralization of interleukin 23(IL-23)attenuates angiotensinⅡ(AngⅡ)-induced atherosclerosis in ApoE-/-mice.Method:The 10-week-old male ApoE-/-mice were fed with Western-type diet and implanted osmotic minipumps for the infusion of Ang Ⅱ(8weeks).The mice were randomly grouped and injected i.p.Once per week for 8week with anti-IL-23p19 antibody or control antibody.Blood pressure,heart rate,atherosclerotic lesion,the frequencies of Th1 and Th17as well as the expression of local and circulating cytokine were measured.Result:No significant difference was found in blood pressure and heart rate in the two groups.Neutralization of IL-23 led to a significant reduction in the atherosclerosis lesion size,the frequencies of Th1 and Th17as well as the production of local and circulating IFN-γ,IL-6,IL-17 and TNF-α.Conclusion:Neutralization of interleukin 23 attenuates angiotensinⅡ-induced atherosclerosis in ApoE-/-mice by inhibiting inflammation.
