Effects of interleukin 1β on the expression of prostaglandin E_2 in cultured airway fibroblasts / 中国综合临床

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the role of IL-1β in inhalation injury repairment through its effects on the expression of prostaglandin E_2 in cultured airway fibroblasts of mouse. Methods The cultured airway fibroblasts in vivo from male Kunming species mouse were randomly divided into control group and treatment group. The superna-rant and cells were collected at different time after treated with IL-1β. The expressions of PGE_2, COX-2 and mPGES1 protein in supernatant and cells were measured by ELISA and Western Blot. Results ①PGE_2 levels in the cultured airway fibroblast supematant at 8 h(148.2±28.3) ng/L,16 h(267.6±45.4)ng/L,24 h(210.5±38.6) ng/L and 48 h(198.7±36.5) ng/L were higher than that in the control group (P < 0.01), and peaked at 16 h;COX-2 ex-pressions at 8 h(0.478±0.029) COX-2/β-actin, 16 h(0.672±0.047) COX-2/β-actin,24 h(0.617±0.036) COX-2/β-antin, and 48 h (0.593±0.034) COX-2/β-actin were higher than that in control group (P < 0.01), and peaked at 16 h;mPGES1 at 8 h(0.300±0.018) mPGES1/β-actin, 16 h(0.549±0.034) mPGES1/β-actin, 24 h (0.497±0.030)mPGES1/β-actin and 48 h(0.443±0.026)mPGES1/β-actin were higher than that in the control group(P < 0.01), and peaked at 16 h. ②PGE_2 in 0.1 μg/L IL-1β group (142.9±2.3) ng/L, 1.0 μg/L IL-1β group (267.6±45.4) ng/L and 10.0 μg/L IL-1β group (587.3±106.9) ng/L were higher than those in the control group (58.5±16.0) ng/L (P < 0.01), and there was significant difference among the three groups (P < 0.01);COX-2 in 0.1 μg/L IL-1β group(0.525±0.031) COX-2/β-actin, 1.0 μg/L IL-1β group(0.672±0.047) COX-2/ β-actin and 10.0 μg/L IL-1β group(1.012±0.064)COX-2/β-actin were higher than that in the control group (0.309±0.019) COX-2/β-actin (P < 0.01), and there was difference among the three groups (P < 0.01);mPG-ES1 in 0.1 μg/L IL-1β group(0.380±0.021) mPGES1/β-actin, 1.0 μg/L IL-1β group (0.549±0.034) mPG-ES1/β-actin, and 10.0 μg/L IL-1β group(0.879±0.045) mPGES1/β-actin were higher than those in the control group(0.199±0.012)(P<0.01),and there was difference among the three groups(P<0.01).Conclusions IL-1β may upregulate PGE_2, COX-2 and mPGES1 expressions in airway fibroblast, indicating that IL-1β influences PGE_2 synthesis through COX-2 and mPGES1 expression and participates in airway inhalation injury course. Airway fibroblasts may be a main source cell of inflammatory mediators in injury repair.
