牛黄对小鼠口腔成纤维细胞功能的调节作用

Regulation of calculus bovis on the function of mice oral fibroblasts

摘要:

探讨牛黄对原代小鼠口腔成纤维细胞功能的影响, 揭示其在溃疡愈合过程中的作用及机制。本试验采用MTT法、氯胺-T法、明胶酶谱分析和酶联免疫反应测定了牛黄对小鼠口腔成纤维细胞增殖、胶原沉积、金属蛋白酶-2、-9活性和基质金属蛋白酶抑制因子-1合成的影响。结果表明牛黄能显著抑制小鼠口腔成纤维细胞的增殖、胶原沉积和金属蛋白酶-2活性, 同时也极显著(P < 0.01)抑制基质金属蛋白酶抑制因子-1的产生。结果提示牛黄在溃疡愈合过程中不具生肌作用, 可能通过抗炎促进溃疡愈合; 其抑制胶原合成的机制可能与极显著抑制基质金属蛋白酶抑制因子-1有关。

Abstract:

To explore the influence of calculus bovis on the function of primary cultured mice oral fibroblasts, we determined the effects of calculus bovis on the fibroblast proliferation, collagen production, matrix metalloproteinases-2, -9 activities and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 production by MTT assay, chloramine T method, gelatin zymography and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays respectively. The results showed that calculus bovis could significantly inhibit the proliferation of fibroblasts and collagen synthesis in a concentration dependent manner, could significantly (P<0.05) suppress matrix metalloproteinases-2 activity and very significantly (P<0.01) inhibit the production of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1. In conclusion, the major function of calculus bovis in the process of ulcer healing is not to promote tissue regeneration, the mechanism that calculus bovis inhibits collagen synthesis may be partly due to its ability to very significantly (P<0.01) suppress the production of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1.
