ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the influence of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) on the expression of phosphorylated signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (pSTAT 3) in rat retinal MOiler cells. Methods For in vitro study cultured Mailer cells were treated with IL-1β of different concentrations (0, 0.1, 1, 5 and 10 ng/ml) for 24 hours. For in vivo study, 32 Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were divided into 4 groups randomly (control group, 100,500 and 1000 ng/ml group) with 8 rats in each group. After 24 hours of injection with phosphate buffered solution (PBS), or 100, 500, 1000 ng/ml IL-1β into the vitreous treated retinas were evaluated by indirect immunofluorescence and western blotting. Results After 24 hours of incubation without IL-1β, pSTAT3 has little expression in cultured Muller cells, but was up-regulated by 1 ng/ml or higher IL-1β in a dosage-dependent manner (F=46.64, 43.78; P<0.01). pSTAT3 was not expressed in adult rat retina, but was up-regulated by vitreous injection of 100 ng/ml or higher IL-1β in a dosage-dependent manner (F=73.53, 43.70; P<0.01). pSTAT3 expressed mainly in inner nuclear layer and ganglion cell layer. Double-labeling showed that there was no co-staining of pSTAT3 and glial fibrillary treated with IL-1β. Conclusions Expression of pSTAT3 in MUller cells could be activated by IL-1β which may represent one pathway link to reactive gliosis.
