Mechanism of IL-1β enhance Blood-Brain Tumor Barrier permeability / 中国药理学通报

ABSTRACT

Aim To study the effect of IL-1β on pro-tein expression of vascular endothelial growth factor in glioma cells and plasma membrane microcapsule struc-ture protein caveolin-1 and plasma membrane vesicles in brain microvascular endothelial cells, and prelimi-narity discuss the possible mechanism of IL-1β opening blood tumor barrier. Methods The tumor barrier mod-el was established by transwell in vitro. The effect of IL-1β on the expression of VEGF in glioma cells and caveolin-1 in brain microvascular endothelial cells was dynamically monitored by Western blot. TEM was used to observe the number of plasma membrane vesicles of brain microvascular endothelial cells. Sodium fluores-cein leakage test was used to assess the permeability of blood tumor barrier after IL-1β. Results The tumor barrier model was successfully established by transwell in vitro. When IL-1β treated the model of blood tumor barrier,the expression of VEGF increased,and reached the peak at 60min,and recovered to the initial state at 120min. The permeability of the blood tumor barrier model was the highest at 60min. In addition,our re-sults also found that,the protein expression of plasma membrane microcapsule structure protein caveolin-1 and number of plasma membrane vesicles in brain mi-crocapsule endothelial cells reached peak at 60 min, subsequently reduced and returned to non drug state at 120min. Conclusion IL-1β increases blood tumor barrier permeability,which may be related to IL-1β in-creasing the number of plasma membrane vesicles through VEGF/ caveolin-1 pathway.
