Abstract:
Objective To explore the mechanism of the microglia inflammatory response through observing the changes of interleukin-1 receptor associated kinase-4(IRAK-4) expression in murine N9 microglia cells under hypoxia.Methods N9 cells were exposed to 3%O2,5%CO2,92%N2 for 1,3,6,12 and 24 h respectively.The IRAK-4 protein level was detected by Western blotting and the celluar change was observed by laser scanning confocal microscope(LSCM).The TNF-? level was measured by ELISA.Results After hypoxia,the expression of IRAK-4 protein was increased in a time-dependent manner.The elevation began at 1 h after hypoxia,increased significantly at 3 h(P0.05).The fluorescence intensity of IRAK-4 also increased with the extension of anoxic time.The TNF-? level change were similar.There were significant positive correlations between the expression of IRAK-4 and TNF-?(P
