简介:目的:通过比较两种肥大细胞模型RBL-2H3和P815细胞激活后脱颗粒反应的差异,寻找早期、稳定、敏感的肥大细胞脱颗粒体外检测模型,为进一步建立基于细胞水平的过敏原和抗过敏药物的体外筛选模型提供一定的参考。方法:10μg·mL^-1C48/80激活细胞15-60min,比色法检测组胺、β-氨基己糖苷酶及类胰蛋白酶等过敏介质的释放,中性红染色法进行形态学观察,流式细胞法检测AnnexinV阳性细胞率。结果:C48/80刺激P815、RBL-2H3细胞15-60min后组胺释放率均明显增加,并且相同刺激条件下,两种细胞模型的组胺释放率基本相当。C48/80刺激P815细胞15min以上,β-氨基己糖苷酶释放率、类胰蛋白酶释放率、AnnexinV阳性细胞率和中性红染色脱颗粒细胞率均明显增加;但相同浓度的C48/80需刺激RBL-2H3细胞30-45min以上,上述指标才出现显著增加。在相同的刺激条件下,P815细胞过敏介质释放率、AnnexinV阳性率和脱颗粒率均高于RBL-2H3细胞。结论:同RBL-2H3相比,在相同刺激条件下,P815细胞活化后脱颗粒时间出现更早、程度更高。提示除RBL-2H3细胞,P815细胞也可作为一种早期、稳定、敏感的肥大细胞脱颗粒体外检测模型。
简介:目的:研究清燥救肺汤对乌拉坦诱导肺癌模型鼠TGF-β1、Smad2和p38MAPK的影响。方法:选择清洁级KM小鼠,随机分为6组,即正常组、模型组、六味地黄丸4.6g/kg组、清燥救肺汤33.6g/kg、16.8g/kg、8.4g/kg组。除正常组外,其余各组小鼠腹腔注射乌拉坦800mg/kg,每周两次,连续五周,复制小鼠肺癌模型。给药与造模同时进行,1次/d,连续15周。清燥救肺汤33.6g/kg、16.8g/kg、8.4g/kg组、六味地黄丸4.6g/kg组分别给予等体积药物,正常组与模型组灌胃生理盐水。15周后,取肺脏检测。肉眼及镜下计数双肺小鼠肺肿瘤结节数,并计算小鼠肺肿瘤发生率;WesternBlot测定肺组织TGF-β1、Smad2和p38MAPK蛋白的表达;免疫组化检测肺组织TGF-β1、Smad2和p38MAPK活性的表达。结果:清燥救肺汤(8.4、16.8、33.6g/kg)均能使肺肿瘤发生率从91.7%降至58.3~75.0%,平均肿瘤结节数从5降至3,明显降低肺癌模型鼠肺组织TGF-β1、Smad2和p38MAPK蛋白的表达,并可使肺组织中TGF-β1、Smad2和p38MAPK活性的表达也显著下降。结论:清燥救肺汤可能通过抑制TGF-β1、Smad2和p38MAPK的过度表达,从而多靶点调控TGF-β1/Smad2及p38MAPK等信号通路来实现延缓肺癌的发生发展及转移。
