摘要: 目的 研究白细胞介素-13IL-13)联合薄荷醇对人支气管上皮细胞(16HBE)黏液蛋白(MUC5AC合成及分泌的影响,并探索瞬时受体电位通道(TRPmelastatin 8TRPM8)和抗凋亡因子B淋巴细胞瘤-2Bcl-2)在此环节中所起的作用。方法 16HBE细胞分为:对照组、IL-13组(培养基加入终浓度10 ng/mLIL-13连续刺激)、薄荷醇组(于第6天加入1 mmol/L薄荷醇刺激)、IL-13+薄荷醇组(IL-13连续刺激6 d后加入1 mmol/L薄荷醇刺激),观察各组MUC5AC表达量、胞内Ca2+浓度和Bcl-2表达;予以Bcl-2抑制剂ABT-263TRPM8离子通道特异性抑制剂BCTC干预,观察两者对各组MUC5AC的影响及BCTC对胞内Ca2+浓度、Bcl-2表达的影响。CCK-8法检测细胞活力,流式细胞术检测各组细胞内Ca2+荧光强度,实时荧光定量PCR检测MUC5ACBcl-2mRNA水平,酶联免疫吸附法检测培养液中MUC5AC含量。结果 IL-13组、薄荷醇组、IL-13+薄荷醇组MUC5AC mRNA和蛋白的表达均明显高于对照组(P<0.05),且IL-13+薄荷醇组最高并于24 h达到最高峰(P<0.01);薄荷醇组、IL-13组、IL-13+薄荷醇组胞内Ca2+荧光强度、Bcl-2mRNA表达均明显高于对照组(P<0.05),且IL-13+薄荷醇组最高(P<0.01);予以BCTC干预后,薄荷醇组、IL-13+薄荷醇组胞内Ca2+荧光强度、Bcl-2mRNAMUC5AC mRNA和蛋白表达水平均显著低于相应的未干预组(P<0.05),而IL-13组未发生明显变化(P>0.05);予以ABT-263干预后,各ABT-263干预组MUC5ACmRNA和蛋白表达水平均显著低于相应的未干预组(P<0.05)。结论 IL-13联合薄荷醇对于16HBE细胞MUC5AC的合成及分泌产生协同效应,其机制可能与TRPM8受体诱导的Bcl-2协同性增强有关。

Abstract: Objective To investigate the effect of interleukin (IL) -13 combined with cold stimulation on synthesis and secretion of mucin (MUC) 5AC in human bronchial epithelial cell line 16HBE and explore the role of transient receptor potential 8 (TRPM8) and anti-apoptotic factor B-cell lymphoblast-2 (Bcl-2) in this process. Methods 16HBE cells were stimulated with 10 ng/mL IL-13, 1 mmol/L menthol, or both (1 mmol/L menthol was added after 6 days of IL-13 stimulation), and the changes in the expression of MUC5AC, intracellular Ca2 + concentration and Bcl-2 expression were evaluated. The effects of ABT-263 (a Bcl-2 inhibitor) and BCTC (a TRPM8 ion channel inhibitor), alone or in combination, on MUC5AC expression in the cells were tested, and the changes in intracellular Ca2 + and Bcl-2 expression following BCTC treatment were observed. The cell viability was assessed using CCK-8 assay, the mRNA expressions of MUC5AC and Bcl-2 were detected with real-time quantitative PCR, the level of MUC5AC in the culture medium was measured with ELISA, and the intracellular Ca2 + fluorescence intensity was determined with flow cytometry. Results The mRNA and protein expressions of MUC5AC increased significantly in 16HBE cells following stimulation with IL-13, menthol, and both (P<0.05), and were the highest in the combined treatment group with its peak level occurred at 24 h (P<0.01). The intracellular Ca2 + fluorescence intensity and Bcl-2 mRNA expression were also increased in 16HBE cells after the stimulations (P<0.05), and the increments were the most obvious in the combined treatment group (P<0.01). Treatment with BCTC significantly lowered intracellular Ca2 + fluorescence intensity and the expressions of Bcl-2 and MUC5AC mRNA and protein in the cells stimulated with menthol or with both IL-13 and menthol (P<0.05), but caused no significant changes in IL-13-stimulated cells (P>0.05). Treatment with ABT-263 significantly lowered the mRNA and protein expressions of MUC5AC in the cells stimulated with IL-13 and menthol either alone or in combination (P<0.05). Conclusion Menthol combined with IL-13 produces a synergistic effect to promote the synthesis and secretion of MUC5AC in 16HBE cells possibly by activating TRPM8 receptor to upregulate the expression of Bcl-2.
