摘要: Toll样受体(toll-like receptor, TLR)成员TLR4可识别革兰氏阴性细菌的脂多糖(lipopolysaccharide, LPS),参与宿主免疫炎症反应。研究旨在通过干扰基因TLR4,以阐释TLR4对炎性细胞因子基因表达水平和鸡巨噬细胞HD11凋亡的影响,为完善TLR4在鸡免疫反应中的分子调控机制提供一定依据。不同剂量LPS感染鸡HD11细胞,检测感染后不同时间点TLR4及免疫炎性相关基因表达量。设计3条TLR4基因干扰片段,分别转染鸡HD11细胞,qRT-PCR和流式分别检测LPS感染前后TLR4和免疫炎性相关基因表达量以及细胞凋亡。结果显示,1 μg/mL LPS感染8 h时诱导基因TLR4、IL-1β、IL-8和IL-6的表达效果最佳。成功干扰TLR4基因后,LPS感染鸡HD11细胞时促炎因子基因IL-1β、IL-6、IL-8和TNF-α表达量显著性降低(P<0.05),且有效抑制细胞凋亡;但抗炎因子基因TGF-β和IFN-α的表达水平不受影响(P>0.05)。结果说明,调节TLR4基因的表达可直接影响细胞对LPS的炎症反应,为控制过度炎症反应提供新思路和干预靶点,对缓解应激性病理损伤和提高家禽健康具有实践意义。

Abstract: The toll-like receptors (TLRs) member, TLR4, can recognize a various of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of gram-negative bacteria to involve host immune and inflammation response. This study was aimed to explore the effects ofTLR4on the expression of inflammatory cytokine genes and chicken macrophage HD11 apoptosis, through interfering the expression ofTLR4, so as to provide some useful information in molecular regulation mechanism ofTLR4on chicken immune response. Different doses of LPS were used to infect chicken HD11 cells, and the expression levels ofTLR4and inflammatory related genes were identified at different time points after infection. TLR4-siRNA were designed and transfected to chicken HD11 cells in vitro, and then quantitative real time PCR (qRT-PCR) and flow cytometry were, respectively, applied to detect the expression of TLR4 and inflammatory related genes, as well as cell apoptosis. The results showed that the optimum condition of LPS was 1 μg/mL infection 8 h to induce the expression of geneTLR4,IL-1β,IL-8andIL-6. In chicken HD11 cells, interferingTLR4gene could significantly decrease the expression of pro-inflammatory genesIL-1β,IL-6,IL-8and TNF-α (P<0.05), and inhibit cell apoptosis under LPS infection, while the expression levels of anti-inflammatory genes TGF-β and IFN-α was decreased with no significant difference (P>0.05). This study confirmed that regulating the expression ofTLR4gene can directly affect the inflammatory response of chicken HD11 cells to LPS, which provide new ideas and intervention targets for controlling excessive inflammatory response, as well as, have practical significance for alleviating stress-induced pathological damage and improving poultry health.
