Abstract:
Objective To investigate the protective effect of lentivirus-mediated silencing information regulation protein 6(SIRT6)overexpression on radioactive lung injury in rats.Methods 72 male 150-200 g Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups(n=24).The 6 MV-X-ray linear accelerator was used to irradiate the lungs.The rats in each group were injected with normal saline(TNF-α)were measured at 1, 2, 4, and 8 weeks after radiotherapy(Lent-SIRT6), and the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-IL-6 and IL-1β were measured by HE staining.The levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β in liver tissue were detected by HE staining.The levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β in liver tissue were detected by HE staining.Results The alveolar wall and alveolar stroma were normal in the control group.The alveolar wall of the irradiated group was thickened and fibrosis, and a large number of hypertrophic fibrous tissues were found in the alveolar stroma.The alveolar wall of Lent-SIRT6 group was thickened And alveolar stromal fibrosis symptoms were lighter than the irradiation group.Compared with the control group, the levels of serum TNF-α and IL-6, neutrophil count and the levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β in the liver tissue were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05).The lentiviruses overexpressing SIRT6 could alleviate the abnormalities caused by radiation (P<0.05).The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion SIRT6 can effectively inhibit the inflammatory reaction, reduce the lung injury symptoms of radiation pneumonia, and have some protective and prevention effect on lung injury.
