目的:研究肿瘤坏死因子-α(TNF-α)对Caco-2细胞表达多聚免疫球蛋白受体(pIgR)和核因子-κB(NF-κB)亚单位RelA/RelB的影响。方法:采用Real-time PCR方法检测肠上皮细胞表达pIgR、RelA和RelB的变化。结果:与无TNF-α刺激比较,用不同浓度TNF-α刺激后pIgR、RelA和RelB基因的表达明显增加(P〈0.01)。结论:TNF-α促进肠上皮细胞表达pIgR、NF-κB亚单位基因表达,TNF-α通过NF-κB通路激活pIgR基因的转录。
Objective:To study the influence of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)on the expression of RIgR and RelA/RelB subunits of nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-κB)in Caco-2 cells.Methods:pIgR mRNA,RelA and RelB mRNA of Caco-2 cells were assayed by quantitative Real-time PCR.Results:The increase of expression of genes,RelA and RelB gene in Caco-2 cells was found by the stimulation of TNF-α treatment compared with that of untreatment(P〈0.01).Conclusion:TNF-α stimulates the expression of RIgR genes,RelA/RelB genes in Caco-2 cells.TNF-α may activate transcription of the PIgR gene through the alternative NF-κB pathway.
