Abstract:
[ ABSTRACT] AIM:To explore whether IL-1βinhibits the oligodendrocyte precursor cell ( OPCs) differentiation and affects axonal myelination.METHODS:One-day-old SD rats were randomly divided into control group and LPS group ( 48 rats in each group) .The rats in LPS group were intraperitoneally injected with 1 mg/kg LPS.The rats in control group were injected with an equal volume of PBS.The rats in each group were further divided into 3 h, 24 h, 3 d, 7 d, 14 d and 28 d subgroups after injection.The expression of IL-1βand IL-1R1 in the rat corpus callosum at 3 h, 24 h, 3 d, 7 d was determined by double immunofluorescence and Western blotting.The myelin basic protein( MBP) expression in the rat cor-pus callosum at 14 d, 28 d after injection was also measured.In vitro, primary OPCs culture was performed and divided in-to control group, 30 μg/L IL-1βgroup, 30 μg/L IL-1β+IL-1Ra group and 30 μg/L IL-1Ra group.The expression of MBP in the OPCs induced differentiation for 3 d was observed by double immunofluorescence and Western blotting.RE-SULTS:The expression of IL-1βand IL-1R1 in the rat corpus callosum at 3 h, 24 h, 3 d, 7 d after LPS injection was ob-viously increased and the expression of MBP in the rat corpus callosum at 14 d, 28 d in LPS group was obviously decreased compared with control group in vivo.The level of MBP was significantly decreased after IL-1βtreatment for 3 d in vitro. However, IL-1Ra (IL-1R inhibitor) reversed the down-regulation of MBP expression.IL-1βinhibited the expression of p-ERK, ERK over-expression reversed the down-regulation of MBP expression compared with IL-1βgroup.CONCLUSION:IL-1βinhibits the differentiation of OPCs, which may be involved in ERK pathways, thus leading to axonal hypomyelination in the corpus callosum of septic neonatal rats.
