Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effects of 1, 25-dihydroxy vitamin D3[1, 25(OH)2D3] on food allergy(FA) in mice and its mechanism.
Methods:A total of 40 BALB/c mice were randomly divided into 5 groups, 8 in each group, including control group (group C) and FA model group (FA group), according to the dose of 1, 25(OH)2D3 intervention, the mice of the FA group were divided into FA0 group (0), FAl group [10 μg/(kg·d)], FAm group [50 μg/(kg·d)] and FAh group[100 μg/(kg·d)]. Egg albumin was used to establish a food allergy model, with different doses of 1, 25(OH)2D3 for gastric intervention, and the control group was replaced by 9 g/L saline.The serum levels of ovalbumin-immunoglobulin E(OVA-IgE), interleukin(IL)-9 and IL-17 of mice were measured by using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay after the last excitation, and HE staining and histopathological examination were carried out in the small intestine of mice.
Results:Compared with group C, FA0 group and FAh group small intestinal mucosa in mice had different degrees of damage, partial peeling off, structure disorder, villi epithelial cell focal falls peeling off, necrosis, lamina propria edema, congestion, a large number of inflammatory cells infiltration, low but the FAl group and FAm group had light mucosa damage, intestinal epithelial basically intact, with integrity, no congestion, edema, and inflammatory cells infiltration to a lesser degree.The mean concentrations of serum IgE, IL-9 and IL-17 in different groups were statistically significant (F=40.770, 9.530, 5.624, all P<0.05). Compared with the FA0 group [(41.87±3.19) ng/L], the OVA-IgE of the FAl group [(22.71±4.77) ng/L] and the FAm group [(16.34±2.81) ng/L] were significantly reduced (t=5.533, 11.835, all P<0.01), but there was no significant difference between the FAh group [(36.29±6.52) ng/L] (t=1.673, P>0.05). Compared with the FA0 group [(161.77±50.44) ng/L], the IL-9 levels of the FAl group [(94.29±18.79) ng/L] and the FAm group[(84.45±30.88) ng/L] were significantly lower (t=3.267, 3.366, all P<0.01), while that of the FAh group [(36.29±6.52) ng/L] was not significantly lower (t=0.777, P>0.05). Compared with FA0 group [(81.55±29.37) ng/L], IL-17 levels of FAh group [(133.58±47.05) ng/L] was significantly increased (t=2.653, P<0.05), while IL-17 level of FAl group [(79.41±25.15) ng/L] and FAm group [(58.81±26.00) ng/L] were lower than that of FA0 group [(81.55±29.37) ng/L], but the difference was not statistically significant (t=0.154, 1.640, all P>0.05).
Conclusions:Low, medium dose of 1, 25(OH)2D3 supplements can inhibit mice food allergies, but high doses of 1, 25(OH)2D3 improve performance in mice food allergies, and 1, 25(OH)2D3′s influence on the secretion of IL-9 is one that influences mechanism of food allergy.
