目的利用体外诱导小鼠骨髓细胞获得的高纯度肥大细胞(mast cells,MC),探讨白细胞介素(IL)4参与诱导获得的MC中神经激肽受体1(neurokinin receptor 1,NK-1R)和Fc段受体Ⅰα(FcεRⅠα)的表达情况;建立神经肽P物质(substance P,SP)介导的MC脱颗粒模型,初步探讨SP除通过其特异性受体NK-1R调控MC脱颗粒外,是否还存在FcεRⅠα介导的途径。方法从BALB/c小鼠股骨提取骨髓细胞于RPMI 1640完全培养基中,分不同浓度IL-4诱导组即100 μg/L干细胞因子(stem cell factor,SCF)、15 μg/L IL-3以及0、10、15、20、25 μg/L IL-4中进行体外培养。每周换液,将悬浮细胞移入新的培养体系。倒置显微镜观察并记录细胞生长情况。4周后收集各组细胞及上清液,进行甲苯胺蓝染色、流式细胞术检测CD117鉴定MC,流式细胞术以及蛋白印迹Western blot法分析不同组骨髓MC中FcεRⅠα和NK-1R的表达情况。经鉴定培养成功的骨髓MC中分别加入不同浓度的SP(0、0.01、0.1、1.0、10.0 mg/L)孵育0.5 h,检测上清液和细胞内组胺含量,计算组胺释放率。结果不同浓度IL-4(0、10、15、20、25 μg/L)诱导获得MC表面CD117的阳性率分别为(94.8±1.3)%、(95.7±2.5)%、(94.1±1.3)%、(96.6±1.0)%、(96.6±1.1)%,各组比较差异无统计学意义(F=8.51, P〉0.05);FcεRⅠα的阳性率分别为(81.5±2.6)%、(84.2±1.8)%、(91.8±2.0)%、(91.6±1.6)%、(93.0±2.6)%,各组比较差异有统计学意义(F=15.76, P〈0.05)。不同浓度SP(0、0.01、0.1、1.0、10 mg/L)刺激,20 μg/L IL-4诱导组MC释放组胺含量分别为(20.08±1.50)%、(32.76±2.99)%、(42.90±3.36)%、(50.21±1.29)%、(56.10±3.60)%,对照组分别为(19.37±2.02)%、(19.50±1.50)%、(21.77±1.91)%、(32.00±2.50)%、(33.56±1.25)%,各组间比较差异有统计学意义(P值均〈0.05?
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of interleukin-4 (IL-4) stimulation on the expression of FcεRⅠα and NK-1R on mature mast cells(MC) cultured and differentiated from mouse bone marrow stem cells, and then to study if these MC also respond to substance P (SP) both in FcεRⅠα and NK-1R dependent manners. MethodsBone marrow cells were aseptically flushed from BALB/c mouse femurs into complete RPMI 1640, followed by culture with stem cell factor (SCF 100 μg/L), IL-3 (15 μg/L) and IL-4 (0, 10, 15, 20 and 25 μg/L, respectively). The culture medium was changed once a week. The morphological changes of culture cells were observed under inverted microscope. After 4 weeks culture, the cells were collected and appraised by toluidine blue staining and flow cytometry. The expressions of surface CD117, FcεRⅠα and NK-1R on these cells were detected by flow cytometry and Western blot. Bone marrow MC were activated with SP (0, 0.01, 0.1, 1.0 and 10 mg/L, respectively) for 30 min. The histamine released into the supernatant and stored in the protoplasm was quantified by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The percentage of histamine release was calculated as a percent of total histamine content. ResultsWhen different concentrations of IL-4 (0, 10, 15, 20, 25 μg/L)were added into RPMI 1640, the positive rates of CD117 on MC surface were expressed as (94.8±1.3)%, (95.7±2.5)%, (94.1±1.3)%, (96.6±1.0)%, and (96.6±1.1)%, respectively, and there was no significant difference among these groups (F=8.51, P〉0.05). The positive rates of FcεRⅠα were expressed as (81.5±2.6)%, (84.2±1.8)%, (91.8±2.0)%, (91.6±1.6)%, and (93.0±2.6)%, respectively, and there was statistically increasing among these groups (F=15.76, P〈0.05). Then MC were activated by SP (0, 0.01, 0.1, 1.0, 10 mg/L), histamine from 20 μg/L IL-4 group were released (20.08±1.50)%, (32.76±2.99)%, (42.90±3.36)%、(50.21±1.29)%, (56.10±
