目的·探讨葡萄糖对小鼠CD4^+T细胞分化的影响。方法·小鼠初始CD4^+T细胞在调节性T细胞(regulatory T cell,Treg)、Th1、Th17和Th2分化条件下,经不同浓度的葡萄糖处理5 d后,利用流式细胞术检测细胞分化的比例,实时荧光定量PCR...目的·探讨葡萄糖对小鼠CD4^+T细胞分化的影响。方法·小鼠初始CD4^+T细胞在调节性T细胞(regulatory T cell,Treg)、Th1、Th17和Th2分化条件下,经不同浓度的葡萄糖处理5 d后,利用流式细胞术检测细胞分化的比例,实时荧光定量PCR检测相关细胞因子和转录因子的基因表达水平。结果·与无糖组相比,在Treg和Th2分化的条件下,随着葡萄糖浓度升高,Treg和Th2比例增高,其关键转录因子Foxp3(forkhead box P3)、Gata3(GATA binding protein 3)与主要细胞因子转化生长因子-β、白介素-4(interleukin-4,IL-4)和IL-13的基因水平增加;而随着葡萄糖浓度升高,Th1和Th17细胞比例则降低,其相关转录因子Tbx21(T-box transcription factor 21)和RORC(RAR related orphan receptor C),以及细胞因子干扰素-γ、IL-17A、IL-17F、IL-22和细胞因子受体IL-23R的基因表达下降。结论·葡萄糖能促进Treg和Th2体外分化,而抑制Th1与Th17分化。展开更多
