摘要: 目的: 上皮-间质共同维持的免疫稳态是口腔黏膜健康的重要生物学基础。本研究通过检测炎性标志物在口腔黏膜病患者上皮和间质的表达模式,以探讨其临床意义,为不同炎症类型口腔黏膜病的临床管理决策提供依据。方法: 纳入2020年12月~2024年12月就诊的口腔黏膜病患者60例,其中,口腔黏膜大疱类疾病(oral bullous diseases,OBDs)、口腔扁平苔藓(oral lichen planus,OLP)和口腔白斑病(oral leukoplakia,OLK)各20例。通过免疫组织化学染色法检测口腔黏膜组织和细胞中血管紧张素转换酶2(angiotensin converting enzyme 2,ACE2)、跨膜蛋白酶丝氨酸2(transmembrane protease serine 2,TMPRSS2)、白细胞介素-1β(interleukin-1β,IL-1β)和补体C3(complement 3,C3)的表达情况,并进行上皮-间质表达特征及其临床意义分析。结果: 针对OBDs、OLP和OLK组织的免疫组织化学检测结果显示,ACE2主要在口腔黏膜组织的上皮棘层及基底层的细胞膜表达,而在间质细胞中表达较弱(P<0.01);TMPRSS2广泛表达于口腔黏膜上皮全层,在间质细胞中表达较弱(P<0.01) ;IL-1β和C3在OLK上皮和间质组织中的表达均显著高于OLP(P<0.01)。结论: ACE2和TMPRSS2主要参与维持口腔黏膜上皮屏障的基本功能,在OBDs、OLP和OLK的炎症病理变化过程中没有特异性;与OBDs和OLP相比,IL-1β和C3更适合用于OLK组织上皮和间质的炎症状态评估。

Abstract: Objective: To detect the expression pattern of inflammatory markers in the epithelium and stroma of the patients with oral mucosal diseases. Methods: Sixty patients, with 20 cases of oral bullous diseases (OBDs), 20 cases of oral lichen planus (OLP), and 20 cases of oral leukoplakia (OLK), from December 2020 to December 2024, were enrolled in present study. Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining was performed to assess the expressions of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), transmembrane protease serine 2 (TMPRSS2), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and complement C3 (Complement 3, C3) in oral mucosal tissues and cells. The epithelial-stromals expression characteristics and their clinical significance were analyzed. Results: IHC for OBDs, OLP, and OLK tissues results revealed that ACE2 expressed mainly in the cellular membranes of the epithelial stratum spinosum and basale, while weakly in the stromal cells (P<0.01). TMPRSS2 expressed widely in the whole epithelial layers, particularly in glandular ductal epithelium, while weakly in the stromal cells (P<0.01). The expressions of IL-1β and C3 in the epithelium and stroma of OLK were significantly higher than those of OLP (P<0.01). Conclusion: ACE2 and TMPRSS2 primarily participate in maintaining the basic functions of the oral mucosal epithelial barrier and do not exhibit specificity in the inflammatory pathological changes of OBDs, OLP, and OLK. Compared to OBDs and OLP, IL-1β and C3 are more suitable for assessing the inflammatory status of the epithelium and stroma in OLK tissues.
