Abstract:
Objective: To observe the effect of salvianolate on the maturation and immunologic functions of mouse bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs). Methods: Mouse BMDCs were cultured with GM-CSF and 1L-4 for 5 days to obtain immature DCs (imDCs),then the imDCs were cultured in the presence of LPS (1 μg/ml) or LPS (1 μg/ml) plus salvianolate (50, 100 and 200 μg/ml) for 48 h to obtain DCLPS , SVL , SVM and SV H. The immunophenotypes and antigen phagocytosis capabilities of imDCs, DCLPS, SVL, SVM and SVH were analyzed by flow cytometry and FITC-Dextran intake. The IL-12 p40 contents in the supernatants were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The stimulatory activities of imDCs, DCLPS, SVL ,SV M and SVH on allogeneic T cells in mixed lymphocyte reactions (MLR) were tested by incorporation of 3H-TdR; the contents of IL-10,IL-2 and IFN-γ in the supernatants of MLR were examined by ELISA. Results: Compared with DCLPS,SVL,SVM and SVH had lower expression of MHC-II, CD40,CD80 and CD86 molecules, secreted less IL-12 p40 in the supernatant, and exhibited stronger antigen phagocytosis capability; moreover, SVL ,SVM and SV H showed significantly weaker activity in stimulating proliferation of allogeneic T cells(P<0.05,0.01). Compared with DCLPS, SV L, SVM and SVH groups had significantly decreased IL-2 and INF-γ levels in MLR supernatants(P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in the secretion of IL-10. Conclusion: Salvianolate (50-200 μg/ml) can inhibit the maturation of mouse BMDCs in vitro, and thus has a negative effect on immunologic function of BMCDs.
