AIM

To establish an ethanol-induced acute gastric mucosal lesions model in rats and to investigate the effect of c-met and c-Jun protein on healing of acute gastric mucosal lesions.

METHODS

Animal models of acute gastric mucosal lesions were established by intragastric instillation of 1 mL ethanol in the rats. On day 0, 4, 8, the rats were sacrificed respectively. Rats without any treatment served as control. The expressions of c-met and c-Jun were analyzed by immunohistochemical staining.

RESULTS

Gastric mucosal lesion indexes (LIs) were significantly lower after 4, and 8 days with acute gastric mucosal lesions (32±7, 18±3) than LI of acute gastric mucosal lesion model rats (75±11) (P<0.05). Immunohistochemical staining revealed higher positive staining of c-Jun after 8 days with acute gastric mucosal lesions (87.5%) than those of normal control rats (12.5%), and higher positive staining of c-met after 8 days with acute gastric mucosal lesions (62.5%) than those of normal control (0) and acute gastric mucosal lesions model rats (0) (P<0.05).

CONCLUSION

The expression of c-met and c-Jun could accelerate the healing of acute gastric mucosal lesions, which is important for the healing of acute gastric mucosal lesions.

0 引言

即刻早期应答基因c-Jun及c-met参与细胞增生的调控, 与胃黏膜损伤修复的关系密切[1-12], 以大鼠无水乙醇急性胃黏膜损伤模型为基础, 检测早期应答基因c-Jun和c-met在胃黏膜损伤修复过程中的变化规律, 将有助于提高对胃黏膜损伤修复能力病理生理的认识.

1 材料和方法
1.1 材料

免疫组化染色试剂购自武汉博士德公司. 选用32只健康成年♂SD大鼠, 体质200 ± 10 g, 饮食不限, 适应性饲养7 d后用于实验. 实验用大鼠随机分成4组, 每组8只. 正常对照组: (1)禁食不禁水24 h后, 蒸馏水1 mL灌胃, 间隔1 h后断颈处死. 无水乙醇模型组; (2)禁食不禁水24 h, 无水乙醇1 mL灌胃, 间隔1 h后断颈处死. 自然恢复4 d组; (3)禁食不禁水24 h, 无水乙醇1 mL灌胃, 4 d后处死. 自然恢复8 d组; (4)禁食不禁水24 h, 无水乙醇1 mL灌胃, 8 d后处死. 全部实验大鼠均正中开腹取出全胃, 结扎食管及幽门, 向胃内注入40 mg/L多聚甲醛溶液2 mL, 并将全胃浸入40 mg/L多聚甲醛溶液中固定30 min后, 沿胃大弯切开, 平展在玻璃板上, 肉眼观察胃黏膜改变; 用微卡尺测定溃疡灶大小并按Guth法计算黏膜损伤指数[3]: 全胃各病灶长度之和为损伤指数(LI), 以mm表示, 损伤小于或等于1 mm (包括糜烂点)为1分, 大于1 mm而小于或等于2 mm为2分, 依此类推, 损伤宽度大于2 mm者指数加倍. 胃组织40 mg/L多聚甲醛溶液固定6 h, 石蜡包埋, 制成3-4 μm的连续切片, HE染色观察组织病理学改变.

1.2 方法

免疫组织化学染色采用武汉博士德公司的SABC免疫组化染色试剂盒, 按说明书操作. c-Jun阳性细胞的核或胞质可被染成棕黄色或深棕色, 而c-met阳性细胞的胞质可被染成棕黄色或深棕色. 染色结果分级评分方法为: 每张切片均观察胃窦部黏膜染色情况, 从中选择5个有代表性的区域, 每区计算200个细胞. 阳性细胞数计分: 阳性数小于或等于5%为0, 阳性数大于5%但小于或等于35%为1, 阳性数大于35%但小于或等于70%为2, 阳性数大于70%为3. 阳性强度记分: 不着色为0, 弱着色为1, 强着色为2. 阳性分级: 以上两项相加, 小于或等于2为(-), 3 = (+), 4 = (++), 5 = (+++). 以阳性分级(+)以上为阳性.

统计学处理 用SPSS统计软件进行数据处理, c-Jun和c-met表达阳性率的比较用Chi-square检验, 表达强度比较用非参数检验; 计量资料满足正态分布, 行方差分析.

2 结果
2.1 病理学观察

正常对照组大鼠胃黏膜红润、光泽, 未见糜烂、水肿及充血等病理改变, 光镜下未见病理表现. 无水乙醇模型大鼠胃黏膜表面见条状出血病灶, 少数呈斑片状及点状, 黏膜表面明显水肿, 光镜下见黏膜表层坏死组织, 并有中性粒细胞浸润(图1, 图2); 自然恢复4 d组大鼠胃黏膜的色泽浅淡, 光润度稍差, 仍可见糜烂、水肿及充血等改变, 但较无水乙醇模型大鼠程度明显减轻, 光镜下较少见黏膜表层坏死组织, 有中性粒细胞及少量单核细胞、淋巴细胞浸润; 自然恢复8 d组大鼠胃黏膜的色泽及光润度与正常相似, 偶见点状糜烂, 光镜下黏膜表层坏死组织基本消失, 炎性细胞已明显减少. 各组间胃黏膜表面损伤程度比较以LI为标准, A, B, C, D组分别为0, 75±11, 32±7, 18±3, 各组间皆有差别(P<0.05).

2.2 c-Jun和c-met的表达

c-Jun阳性细胞的核或胞质可被染成棕黄色或深棕色, c-met阳性细胞的胞质可被染成棕黄色或深棕色. c-Jun核阳性细胞多位于黏膜固有层胃小凹区域的腺管上皮中, 呈带状分布, c-Jun胞质阳性细胞多位于胃黏膜, 散在分布或簇状分布(图3A). c-met阳性细胞多位于黏膜中上1/3, 散在分布(图3B). 正常胃黏膜及无水乙醇所致急性胃黏膜损伤时c-Jun的阳性信号表达较少, 而未见c-met的阳性信号表达; 自然恢复4 d组大鼠胃黏膜中出现c-met的阳性信号表达; 自然恢复8 d组大鼠胃黏膜中c-Jun的阳性信号表达明显增加, 与正常对照有显著差异, c-met的阳性信号表达明显增加, 与正常对照及损伤模型组大鼠均有显著差异见表1.

3 讨论

胃黏膜在受到一定程度的损伤刺激后, 可启动修复机制使胃黏膜迅速恢复其完整性, 以避免损伤向深层发展, 这是胃黏膜抵抗疾病的一种重要屏障能力[13-18]. 胃黏膜的损伤修复是一个复杂的多因素、多途径的网络调控过程[19-28], 为进一步了解即刻早期应答基因c-Jun及c-met在胃黏膜损伤修复这一复杂调控过程中的作用, 我们检测了胃黏膜损伤修复过程中即刻早期应答基因c-Jun及c-met的变化规律.

原癌基因c-Jun及c-met属即刻早期应答基因, 其编码的蛋白为重要的转录因子, 可诱导其下游基因mRNA转录和蛋白表达, 参与细胞增生的调控, 与急性胃黏膜损伤修复的关系密切[29-41]. 我们的研究发现正常胃黏膜及无水乙醇所致急性胃黏膜损伤时c-Jun的阳性信号表达较少, 未见c-met的阳性信号表达, 自然恢复4 d组大鼠胃黏膜中出现c-met的阳性信号表达; 自然恢复8 d组大鼠胃黏膜中c-Jun的阳性信号表达明显增加, 与正常对照有显著差异, c-met的阳性信号表达明显增加, 与正常对照及损伤模型组大鼠均有显著差异. 提示早期应答基因c-Jun及c-met参与并促进损伤胃黏膜的修复过程, 这可能正是无水乙醇所致急性胃黏膜损伤修复过程得以进行的重要原因之一.
