目的 探讨共刺激分子B7-H3在小鼠角膜中的表达情况以及在角膜移植免疫赦免中的作用.方法 实验研究.以C57BL/6小鼠为供体、BALB/c小鼠为受体建立角膜移植实验模型,采用简单随机抽样方法,取8只未行角膜移植的BALB/c小鼠作为正常对照组,另取8只BALB/c小鼠作为自体角膜移植组,最后30只BALB/c小鼠进行同种异体角膜移植;按Sonoda法观察小鼠角膜移植后的存活率,8周内植片混浊评分≥2分判定为排斥组,8周时未达到2分的认为是存活组;各组各取3只眼球,HE染色后行组织病理学观察并行B7-H3分子的免疫组织化学检测;各组各取5只眼角膜,行荧光定量PCR检测B7-H3分子mRNA的表达情况.各组角膜组织中的B7-H3 mRNA表达差异倍数比较采用设计单因素的方差分析,组间的多重比较采用LSD-t检验.结果 同种异体角膜移植组并未完全排斥,30只小鼠中有9只存活,21只排斥,移植存活率为30%;自体角膜移植组移植存活率为100%;免疫组织化学表明B7-H3分子在正常对照组和自体角膜移植组的角膜上皮、内皮细胞和虹膜睫状体中均有表达,在存活组中的表达明显增加,而在排斥组中的表达明显减少;qPCR检测在正常对照组(4.30±0.023)和自体角膜移植组(4.33±0.031)中均可以检测出B7-H3分子mRNA的表达;同种异体角膜移植排斥组B7-H3分子的mRNA表达程度(3.89±0.037)明显下降;但在同种异体角膜移植存活组中B7-H3分子的mRNA表达(5.04±0.058)明显增加;将各组B7-H3 mRNA的表达差异进行统计学分析,先进行方差齐性检验(F =429.546),再采用LSD法进行两两比较,除了正常对照组与自体角膜移植组之间差异无统计学意义(P =0.387)之外,正常对照组与存活组及排斥组比较,差异均有统计学意义(P =0.001,0.003)结论 B7-H3分子在促进角膜移植的免疫赦免中发挥一定的作用,可能是维持移植角膜免疫耐受状态的重要
Objective To investigate the role of B7-H3 in the immune reaction of corneal transplantation in mice Methods Experimental study.Thirty Corneas of C57BL/6 mice were orthotopically transplanted into the eyes of BALB/c mice,and graft survival was assessed on the basis of Sonoda's standard.When the RI grade was ≥2,rejection was acknowledged and brought into the rejected group(R),and the others into the accepted group(A) ; 8 BALB/c Corneas into their own eyes belonged to isografts(Ⅰ) ;In addition,8 normal BALB/c mice were the control group(C).At last,three eyes in each group(C,I,A,R groups) were used for HE staining and IHC of B7-H3,and there were five eyes in each group for qPCR to detect B7-H3 mRNA expression.Repeated-measures analysis of variance (factorial analysis) followed by LSD test were used for post hoc analysis for expression differences of B7-H3 mRNA between groups.Results There were 9 accepted grafts and 21 rejected grafts in 30 mice,and transplantation survival rate was 30% in the allograft group,while all grafts were transparent,and transplantation survival rate was 100% in the isografts.IHC results showed that B7-H3 was expressed on the corneal epithelium,endothelium and irisciliary body of both normal corneas and Isografts; B7-H3 expression increased in the accepted group and decreased in the rejected group.The results of qPCR conformed to the IHC ; Repeated-measures analysis of variance (factorial analysis) followed by LSD test were used for post hoc analysis for differences between groups(F =429.546).there was a low B7-H3 mRNA expression in the R group(3.89 ±0.037) and high expression in the A group (5.04 ± 0.058) ; and C (4.30 ± 0.023),I (4.33 ± 0.031) groups had no significant difference (P =0.387) ; But there was a significant difference between group R and C (P =0.003) or group A and C (P =0.001).Conclusion All above show that B7-H3 may play an important role in the maintenance of ocular immune privilege.
