PERIPHERAL IMMUNE CHALLENGE-INDUCED CHANGES OF THE IL-1 RECEPTOR TYPEⅠEXPRESSION IN THE HYPOTHALAMIC PARAVENTRICULAR NUCLEUS AND SUPRAOPTIC NUCLEUS IN MICE / 解剖学报

ABSTRACT

Objective To establish the role of hypothalamic neuroendocrine nuclei in neuroimmunomodulation,peripheral immune challenge\|linduced changes of immune cytokine receptor expression in hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus(PVN) and supraotic nucleus(SON) were studied. Methods Following LPS or SEB was administered intraperitoneally,the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA) of splenic cells and IL\|1 receptor type Ⅰ in PVN and SON were observed by using immunocytochemistry.Double fluorescent labeling technique was used to determine the relationship of IL\|1 receptor type Ⅰ co\|expressions with arginine vasopressin or oxytocin. Results 1.Compared with the controls,the expression of PCNA of mouse splenic cells was significantly enhanced by LPS or SEB ( P
