Abstract:
Objective To explore the effects of bilirubin on myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88)and interleukin-1 receptor associated kinase-4(IRAK-4).Methods Seven-day-old Sprague Daw-ley rats (clean grade),male or female,weighing 12.0 to 15.0 g,were randomly assigned to 6 groups.There were normal saline group(Ⅰ),lipopolysaccharide(LPS)control group (LPS,Ⅱ),15 mg /kg bilirubin con-trol (free-LPS)group (Ⅲ),15 mg /kg group (Ⅳa),30 mg /kg group (Ⅳb)and 50 mg /kg group (Ⅳc), and then subsequently divided into 2 h,5 h and 24 h subgroups in each groups.Some of the 200 newborn rats died amid the experiment.Finally a total of 144 were involved in the analysis of results,and 8 rats in each subgroups.Newborn Sprague Dawley rats were administered at various doses of bilirubin (15 mg /kg, 30 mg /kg and 50 mg /kg respectively)intravenously;1 h after injection,the rats were administered LPS intrap-eritoneally at a dose of 1 mg /kg;MyD88 and IRAK-4 were detected by immunohistochemistry at 2 h,5 h and 24 h after the injection of bilirubin.Results (1 )LPS could stimulate the expression of MyD88 and IRAK-4 in spleen cells (qMyD88 2 h =49.89,qMyD88 5 h =139.54,qIRAK-4 2 h =7.93,qIRAK-4 5 h =24.30,qIRAK-4 24 h =6.97 ,P <0.01 ).(2)Low concentration of bilirubin could promote the expression of MyD88 and inhibit the ex-pression of IRAK-4 (qMyD88 2 h =0.76,qMyD88 5 h =5.05,qIRAK-4 2 h =6.43,qIRAK-4 5 h =22.37,qIRAK-4 24 h =1.50, P <0.01 ).(3)LPS stimulation MyD88 affected by low concentration of bilirubin was not obvious (q2 h =1.48,q5 h =1.45,q24 h =0.10,P >0.05).Effects of medium and high concentration of bilirubin on LPS stim-ulation MyD88 were inhibitory(qⅣb 2 h =42.87,qⅣc 2 h =51.38,qⅣb 5 h =103.61 ,qⅣc 5 h =1 15.44,qⅣb 24 h =1.18,qⅣc 24 h =1 1.66,P <0.01 ).(4)Effects of low,medium and high concentration of bilirubin on LPS stimulation IRAK-4 were inhibitory(qⅣa 2 h =9.52,qⅣb 2 h =14.39,qⅣc 2 h =25.55,qⅣa 5 h =38.83,qⅣb 5 h =54.62,qⅣc 5 h =60.51 ,qⅣa 24 h =2.41 ,qⅣb 24 h =1.47,qⅣc 24 h =7.61 ,P <0.01 ).(5)The inhibition of biliru-bin to MyD88 and IRAK-4 was observed at 2 h,strengthened at 5 h,disappeared at 24 h in low-mid concen-trations of bilirubin(P <0.01 )while still visible at 24 h in high concentration of bilirubin.(6)There was neg-atively correlation between the expression level of MyD88,IRAK-4 and bilirubin concentration(rsMyD88 2 h =-0.86, rsMyD88 5 h =-0.92,rsMyD88 24 h =-0.53,rsIRAK-4 2 h =-0.82,rsIRAK-4 5 h =-0.86,rsIRAK-4 24 h =-0.57,P <0.01).(7) Under the effect of bilirubin and LPS,there were positively correlation between the expression levels of MyD88 and IRAK-4 of spleen cells(r2 h =0.77,r5 h =0.9,r24 h =0.67,P <0.01).Conclusion Bilirubin could inhibit the expression of MyD88 and IRAK-4.As the concentration of bilirubin increasing,its inhibition is more obvious and prolonged.The mechanism that bilirubin affects immune function of newborn rat may be related to regulation of expression of MyD88 and IRAK-4 at toll-like receptor 4 signal pathway.
