摘要: 目的 探究清肠温中方对溃疡性结肠炎(UC)小鼠组织驻留记忆CD4+T细胞(CD4+TRM细胞)的调控作用,为中医药治疗UC提供新的理论依据。方法 将SPF级健康雌性C57BL/6小鼠随机分为空白组、模型组、清肠温中方低剂量组、清肠温中方中剂量组、清肠温中方高剂量组。空白组小鼠全程自由进食饮水,模型组和清肠温中方低、中、高各剂量组均采用自由饮用2.5 %(w/v)DSS溶液7 d复制UC模型,同时模型组给予去离子水灌胃,清肠温中方各剂量组给予相应浓度的中药干预1周,期间每日观察小鼠一般情况,测量体重、检测便潜血、记录粪便性状,计算疾病活动指数(DAI)。干预结束后留取结肠组织,制备单细胞混悬液,流式细胞术检测CD4+TRM细胞的水平,应用RT-qPCR测定葡萄糖转运蛋白 Glut1、Glut2、Glut4 mRNA及糖酵解相关因子HK2、PKM2、G6PC、LDHA、LepR、HIF-1α mRNA的含量。结果 与空白组比较,UC小鼠呈现明显的肠道炎症,表现出不同程度的便血、腹泻、体重下降等,清肠温中方各剂量组小鼠体重较模型组明显升高(P < 0.05);模型组小鼠DAI较空白组升高明显(P < 0.05),清肠温中方各剂量组小鼠DAI下降明显(P < 0.05)。机制方面,模型组小鼠结肠固有层CD4+TRM细胞含量均明显高于空白组(P < 0.05),而经清肠温中方干预后,CD4+TRM细胞含量显著降低(P < 0.05);模型组小鼠的 Glut1、Glut2、Glut4、LepR、HIF-1α、HK2、PKM2、G6PC、LDHA mRNA水平较空白组升高(P < 0.05)或有升高趋势,清肠温中方组所检测的mRNA较模型组降低(P < 0.05)或有降低趋势。结论 清肠温中方可能通过抑制糖酵解代谢,从而调控CD4+TRM细胞免疫稳态,达到治疗UC的目的。

Abstract: Objective To explore the regulatory effect of Qingchang Wenzhong Decoction(QCWZD) on tissue-resident memory CD4+T cells(CD4+TRMcells) in mice with DSS-induced colitis.Methods Healthy female C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into control group, model group, QCWZD low-dose group, QCWZD medium-dose group, QCWZD high-dose group. Mice in control group were fed and watered freely throughout the whole process. Model group and doses group of QCWZD were used to replicate the UC model by freely drinking 2.5 %(w/v) DSS solution for 7 days. At the same time, model group was given deionized water gavage, each dose group of QCWZD were given the corresponding concentration of QCWZD intervention for 1 week. During this period, the mice were observed daily for general condition, weight measurement, detection of fecal occult blood, recording of fecal properties, and calculation of disease activity index(DAI). After the intervention, colonic tissues were retained, single cell suspensions were prepared, and the levels of CD4+TRM cells were detected by flow cytometry. Application of RT-qPCR for the determination of glucose transporter proteins Glut1/2/4 mRNA and glycolysis-related HK2 mRNA, PKM2 mRNA, G6PC mRNA, LDHA mRNA, LepR mRNA, HIF-1α mRNA.Results Compared with control group, UC mice showed obvious intestinal inflammation, and exhibiting different degrees of blood in the stool, diarrhea and weight loss. The body weight of mice in each dose group of Chinese medicine were significantly higher than that of model group(P < 0.05). The DAI of mice in model group was significantly higher than that of control group(P < 0.05), and the DAI of mice in each dose group of the QCWZD decreased significantly(P < 0.05). Mechanistically, the content of CD4+TRM cells in the lamina propria of mice in the model group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P < 0.05). While the CD4+TRMcells content was significantly reduced(P < 0.05) after the intervention with the QCWZD. The levels of Glut1/2/4 mRNA, LepR mRNA, HIF-1αmRNA, HK2mRNA, PKM2mRNA, LDHA mRNA, G6PC mRNA were increased(P < 0.05) or tended to be decreased in model group mice compared with control group, and themRNA detected in QCWZD group were decreased(P < 0.05) or tended to be decreased compared with model group.Conclusion QCWZD may be used to treat UC by inhibiting glycolytic metabolism, thereby regulating CD4+TRMcells immune homeostasis. -
