Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of Mcart1 knockout on acute inflammation of macrophages in vitro and in vivo.Methods The Mcart1 knockout mice were used to establish a sepsis model induced by lipopolysaccharide(LPS),and the survival period was measured.Bone marrow derived macrophages(BMDM)of LPS-induced inflam-mation mice were cultured in DMEM high-glucose medium.The mRNA levels of M1 and M2 related cytokines of BM-DM after LPS stimulation were detected by RT-qPCR.The expression level of inflammation-related cytokines in serum of sepsis mice was detected by ELISA.Results Compared with wild type mice(Mcart1flox/flox),the survival time length of sepsis in Mcart1 knockout mice(Mcart1Lyz2-Cre)was significantly shortened(P<0.001).After inflammation,the mRNA level of M1-related cytokines was up-regulated in BMDM cells of Mcart1Lyz2-Cre mice(P<0.05);The mRNA level of M1-related cytokines was down-regulated(P<0.05);The expression of M1-related mediators in serum of sep-sis Mcart1Lyz2-Cre mice was up-regulated(P<0.01).Conclusions Mcart1 knockout can significantly raise the inflam-matory response of macrophages and aggravate the pathological symptoms of sepsis mice.
