摘要: 目的:探讨转录因子剪接型X-盒结合蛋白1 (spliced X-box binding protein 1,XBP1s)对炎症诱导的成牙本质细胞自噬的作用。方法:免疫组化检测XBP1和自噬指标LC3在健康和炎症牙髓组织中的表达。利用脂多糖(lipopolysaccharide , LPS)刺激小鼠牙乳头细胞系(mDPC6T)建立体外炎症模型,检测XBP1和自噬指标LC3、ATG5的表达,再分别利用抑制剂KIRA6,和活性氧(Reactive oxygen species,ROS)清除剂NAC处理细胞。通过免疫荧光和蛋白免疫印迹法检测XBP1s、LC3和ATG5等指标的表达。结果:XBP1s和LC3在炎症牙髓的成牙本质细胞层中表达升高。LPS可诱导XBP1s在mDPC6T细胞中表达,与LC3、ATG5等自噬指标的表达趋势相似。抑制XBP1s可降低LC3、ATG5等自噬指标的表达。结论:XBP1s可调控炎症诱导的成牙本质细胞自噬。

Abstract: Objective: To examine the function of XBP1s in inflammation-induced autophagy in odontoblasts. Methods: Immunohistochemistry was used to examine the expression of XBP1 and autophagy markers (LC3 and ATG5) in human dental pulp samples. mDPC6T cells were stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to establish an in vitro inflammatory model. The cells were further treated with the inhibitor KIRA6 and the reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging agent NAC, respectively. Immunofluorescence and western blotting were used to detect the expression of XBP1s and autophagy-related markers (LC3 and ATG5). Results: The expressions of XBP1, autophagy markers, and apoptosis markers were upregulated in odontoblast layers of human pulpitis tissues. LPS could induce the expression of spliced XBP1 in odontoblasts, and the expression of spliced XBP1 correlated with the expression of autophagy regulators under severe LPS stimulation. Moreover, the suppression of spliced XBP1 could reduce autophagy and apoptosis in inflamed odontoblasts. In addition, a reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger decreased the level of spliced XBP1 in inflamed mDPC6T cells. Conclusion: Spliced XBP1 can regulate autophagy in inflamed odontoblasts
