Abstract:
[ABSTRACT]OBJECTIVETo explore the role and mechanism of IL-13 in regulating the differentiation of ciliated cells on cultured human primary nasal epithelial cells.METHODSHuman nasal epithelial cells were cultured in vitro and treated by IL-13, the differentiation of epithelial cells was observed by western blot detection ofβ-tubulinⅣ and ELISA detection of MUC5AC; the percentage of ciliated and goblet cells was quantified by cytospin followed by immunohistochemical staining; the expression level of central ciliary genes was detected by real-time PCR.RESULTSCompared with control group, IL-13 treatment for 14 day significantly decreased the percentage of ciliated cells and expression ofβ-tubulinⅣ, additionally increased the goblet cells and the secretion of MUC5AC; IL-13 treatment significantly reduced the expression of ciliary key transcription factors such as FOXJ1, RFX2 and RFX3, as well as basal body biogenesis genes like CCNO and CETN2.CONCLUSIONIL-13 inhibits the differentiation of human nasal ciliated epithelial cells, which may be by down-regulating the expression of ciliary key transcription factors and basal body biogenesis proteins.
