A mouse model of AD was established using the semiantigen 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene induction method. The lesion scores, transepidermal water loss and p H, and skin histopathology of mice in each group were observed. The expressions of filaggrin, loricrin,and involucrin were detected by the streptavidin peroxidase immunohistochemical method and western blotting, and their mRNA expressions were detected by quantitative polymerase chain reaction.Results: Mice in the WF, ERF, ICF, and PC groups showed reduced skin lesion performance, improved histopathology, decreased skin lesion score, transepidermal water loss and pH, and upregulated expressions of proteins including filaggrin, loricrin, and involucrin, and their mRNAs. The most obvious regulatory effect was observed in the WF group, followed by the ICF, ERF, and PC groups, accordingly.Conclusions: Mahuang Lianqiao Chixiaodou decoction and its disassembled formula can improve the skin barrier function in a mouse model of AD by upregulating filaggrin, loricrin, and involucrin, and their mRNA expressions, and the most optimal effect was noted in the WF group, followed by the ICF and ERF groups, which suggests that the effect of clearing heat and resolving dampness in improving the skin barrier function of AD is more obvious and is one of the key treatments for AD.展开更多

文摘目的:探讨麻黄连翘赤小豆汤(Mahuang Lianqiao Chixiaodou decoction,MLCD)通过NOD样受体蛋白3(NOD-like receptor protein 3,NLRP3)角质形成细胞焦亡途径干预特应性皮炎样(atopic dermatitis-like,AD样)小鼠皮肤屏障功能障碍与免疫炎症“内外串扰”的疗效及机制。方法:用2,4-二硝基氟苯诱导AD样模型小鼠,分别用MLCD或糠酸莫米松凝胶(mometasone furoate,MF,阳性对照组)处理7天。采用马松染色法、甲苯胺蓝染色法检测皮肤组织的病理变化与肥大细胞浸润情况。采用智能皮肤分析仪、流式细胞术、荧光定量聚合酶链反应和免疫印迹法观察和评估AD样小鼠的皮肤屏障功能障碍、免疫炎症反应和皮肤细胞焦亡。结果:MLCD和MF均可不同程度地改善AD样小鼠的皮损状态,减少病理组织损伤和肥大细胞浸润。MLCD显著降低皮肤色素沉着和炎症状态(P=0.005,P=0.038),增加脾脏中CD4^(+)CD3^(+)T细胞的百分比(P=0.022),降低CD8^(+)CD3^(+)T细胞百分比(P=0.044),降低CD8^(+)CD3^(+)/CD3^(+)的比值(P=0.031),并增加CD4^(+)CD3^(+)/CD8^(+)CD3^(+)的比值(P=0.027)。MLCD还可显著降低角质形成细胞焦亡相关因子NLRP3、casp-1、白细胞介素(IL)-1β和IL-18得mRNA相对表达水平(P=0.027、P<0.001、P=0.012和P=0.039)以及NLRP3、casp-1、凋亡相关斑点蛋白和IL-1β的蛋白表达水平(P=0.002、P=0.006、P=0.004和P=0.035)。结论:MLCD通过干预NLRP3角质形成细胞焦亡介导的皮肤屏障功能障碍和免疫炎症的“内外串扰”机制,对AD样小鼠的治疗具有疗效。
