Objective:To explore the role of receptor-interaction protein 3 (RIP3) in regulating the infiltration of monocytes/macrophages into the liver in autoimmune hepatitis (AIH).Methods:From January to June in 2018, at Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Tianjin Medical University General Hospital, 10 AIH patients who underwent liver biopsy were enrolled, and at the same time, 5 age and gender matched individuals with normal liver function and hepatic cyst were selected as control. The infiltration of monocytes/macrophages in the liver tissues was observed by immunofluorescence detection in the patients with AIH and controls. Raw264.7 macrophages were divided into control group, lipopolysaccharide group and lipopolysaccharide+ RIP3 inhibitor GSK872 (GSK872) group. The expression of RIP3, mixed lineage kinase domain like pseudokinase ( MLKL), tumor necrosis factor ( TNF)- α, interleukin ( IL)-6, IL-1 β, nod-like receptor protein 3 ( NLRP3), CC motif chemokine ligand ( CCL)2 and CCL5 at mRNA levels were detected by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Raw264.7 macrophages were also divided into control group, lipopolysaccharide group and lipopolysaccharide + dexamethasone group. The relative expression of TNF- α, NLRP3, RIP3 and MLKL at mRNA level in macrophage were detected by qPCR. Twenty-four 6-week-old female C57BL/6 mice were chosen to establish AIH mice model and were randomly divided into control group, concanavalin A (ConA) group, ConA+ dexamethasone group and ConA+ GSK872 group (6 mice in each group).
