摘要
[目的]探讨六味地黄丸是否通过提高缝隙连接通讯功能(GJIC)增强树突状细胞(DC)抗原交叉提呈能力,并对其机制进行相关探索.[方法]采用Western Blot实验、免疫荧光法观察六味地黄丸含药血清对黑色素瘤细胞(B16)缝隙连接蛋白43(Cx43)表达及膜定位的影响;采用钙黄绿素(Ca-AM)/DiI荧光示踪实验观察六味地黄丸含药血清对B16细胞GJIC功能的影响;采用流式细胞术观察GJIC在六味地黄丸含药血清增强DC抗原提呈能力中的作用;采用碘化丙啶(PI)/Hoechst染色实验观察CD8+ T淋巴细胞的免疫杀伤效果.[结果]Western Blot及免疫荧光实验结果显示,六味地黄丸含药血清上调Cx43表达;荧光示踪实验证明,六味地黄丸含药血清显著增强B16细胞GJIC功能;流式细胞术分析表明,六味地黄丸含药血清增强DC抗原提呈能力;PI/Hoechst染色结果显示,六味地黄丸含药血清干预B16-OVA后CD8+ T细胞的免疫杀伤效果更加显著.[结论]六味地黄丸通过上调黑色素瘤细胞Cx43表达,改善GJIC功能,进而增强DC的交叉提呈能力,从而激活更强的CD8+ T细胞免疫杀伤反应.
Abstract
Objective To investigate whether Liuwei Dihuang Pills enhances the antigen cross-presenting ability of dendritic cell(DC)by increasing gap junctional intercellular communication(GJIC),and to explore the mechanisms involved.Methods Western Blot and immunofluorescence were used to observe the effects of Liuwei Dihuang Pills-containing serum on the expression and membrane localisation of gap junction protein connexin43(Cx43)in mouse melanoma cells(B16);Calcein-AM/DiI fluorescence tracer assay was used to observe the effects of Liuwei Dihuang Pills-containing serum on the function of GJIC in B16 cells;flow cytometry was used to observe the role of GJIC in the enhancement of DC antigen presenting ability by Liuwei Dihuang Pills-containing serum;and propidium iodide(PI)/Hoechst staining assay was used to observe the immunocidal effect of CD8+ T-lymphocytes.Results Western Blot and immunofluorescence experiments showed that Liuwei Dihuang Pills-containing serum led to the up-regulation of Cx43 expression;fluorescence tracer experiments proved that the GJIC function of B16 cells was significantly enhanced by Liuwei Dihuang Pills-containing serum;flow cytometry analyses showed that the DC antigen-presenting ability was enhanced by Liuwei Dihuang Pills-containing serum;and the results of PI/Hoechst staining showed that the immuno-killing effect of CD8+T-cells was more significant after the intervention of Liuwei Dihuang Pills-containing serum in B16-OVA.Conclusion Liuwei Dihuang Pills improve the GJIC function by up-regulating the Cx43 expression of melanoma cells,and then enhance the cross-presenting ability of DCs thus activating stronger CD8+ T-cell immunocidal responses.
