生命早期LPS暴露對OVA誘導(dǎo)的BALB-c小鼠呼吸道過敏性炎癥反應(yīng)的影響及機制研究

生命早期LPS暴露對OVA誘導(dǎo)的BALB-c小鼠呼吸道過敏性炎癥反應(yīng)的影響及機制研究摘要：

目的：本研究旨在探討生命早期LPS暴露對OVA誘導(dǎo)的BALB/c小鼠呼吸道過敏性炎癥反應(yīng)的影響及機制。

方法：將BALB/c小鼠分為四組，分別為LPS+OVA組、OVA組、LPS組和對照組。其中LPS+OVA組和OVA組分別接受OVA刺激進行過敏誘導(dǎo)，LPS+OVA組和LPS組分別接受LPS刺激進行炎癥誘導(dǎo)，對照組不進行任何干預(yù)。然后，我們測量了BALB/c小鼠的呼吸系統(tǒng)功能指標(biāo)、炎癥細(xì)胞浸潤、細(xì)胞因子水平和免疫球蛋白水平，并利用qRT-PCR技術(shù)檢測NLRP3、NF-κB、IL-1β基因的表達水平。

結(jié)果：我們發(fā)現(xiàn)，生命早期LPS干預(yù)顯著降低OVA引起的呼吸系統(tǒng)功能損傷、炎癥細(xì)胞浸潤和細(xì)胞因子水平。同時，LPS減弱了OVA導(dǎo)致的免疫球蛋白E、IgG1和IgG2a水平升高，以及NLRP3、NF-κB、IL-1β基因表達上調(diào)。此外，我們還觀察到LPS明顯減少T淋巴細(xì)胞和B淋巴細(xì)胞在肺組織中的浸潤。

結(jié)論：我們的研究表明，生命早期LPS干預(yù)可以降低OVA誘導(dǎo)的BALB/c小鼠呼吸道過敏性炎癥反應(yīng)，可能與NLRP3、NF-κB、IL-1β的信號通路抑制、免疫球蛋白水平下調(diào)和淋巴細(xì)胞浸潤的減少有關(guān)。
