Abstract:
Objective:To study the interaction of the inflammatory cytokines expression between CD4+ T cells and primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) infected by dengue virus (DENV-2).Methods:PBMC was extracted from white blood cells by density gradient centrifugation,CD4+ T cells were sorted by immunomagnetic beads.The expression of CD3 and CD4 molecules on the surface of cells was detected by flow cytometry to identify the purity of CD4+ T cells.First,HUVECs were pretreated by specific-S1 P1 receptor agonist CYM-5442 for 24 h,second,infected by DENV-2 on the titer of 103 TCID50,then co-culturing with CD4+ T cells,The relative expression of NS1 partial sequence and IL-6,L-8 mRNA of HUVECs,and IL-4,IL-17,TNF-α,IFN-γ of CD4+ T cells detected by Real-time RT-PCR.IL-6 and IL-8 secreted in cultured supematant analyzed by ELISA.Results:The purity of CD4+ T cells was (98.02±0.32) ％.The expression of NS1 gradually increased to 24 h (3.03±0.26,P＜0.001),decreased after reaching the peak.The relative expression of NS1 in the group of co-cultured with CD4+ T cells was lower than other groups.After infection,the expression of IL-6 and IL-8 were up-regulated,and the expression of IL-6 and IL-8 at each time point was significantly increased after co-culturing with CD4+ T (P＜0.01).IL-6 of CYM-5442 pretreatment group,in 24 h (28.91±2.34,P＜0.05),36 h(19.36±0.1,P＜ 0.05) and 72 h(13.84±0.82,P＜0.05) was significantly decreased,the expression of IL-8 also decreased significantly.The mRNA expression of IL-4,IL-17,TNF-α and IFN-γ in CD4+ T cells was significantly increased after co-culturing with HUVECs.After the treatment with CYM-5442 group,the expression was decreased.Conclusion:DENV-2 could infect the primary HUVECs,and the expression of NS1 was inhibited after co-culturing with CD4+ T cells.CD4+ T cells can not only enhance the activation of HUVECs infected by DENV-2,but also can be activated by the infected HUVECs infected with DENV-2.
