摘要: 应用RT-PCR方法对日本血吸虫感染小鼠脾细胞体外在SEA与ConA诱导下产生的IL-2从mRNA转录水平进行研究,以探讨该细胞因子mRNA转录水平的动态变化及其在肉芽肿形成与调节过程中的作用。结果显示,未感染和感染3周小鼠脾细胞均无IL-2表达,感染后第5周的小鼠脾细胞出现IL-2特异性条带,感染后第8周IL-2表达明显增强,感染后第10、12周无论SEA或ConA都不能诱导IL-2 mRNA的转录。表明IL-2表达的动态变化与肉芽肿的形成、发展及调节相平行,提示IL-2可能在肉芽肿形成和调节过程中起重要作用。

Abstract: In the present study, IL-2 mRNA levels was observed on the spleen cells of mice infected with Schistosoma japonicum by RT-PCR in order to find out how relevant the dynamics of the gene expression of the cytokines to granulomatous inflammation. It was found that the expression of IL-2 could not be detected in SEA or ConA treated spleen cells from both uninfected and 3 week infected mice. IL-2 mRNA could be found obviously expressed at 5 week infection, significantly increased at 8 week infection, However, neither 10 and 12 infected mice indicating the modulated expression of mRNA of the cytokine. The observation revealed that the dynamic of IL-2 gene expression paralleled to the granuloma formation and modulation in S. japonicum infected BALB/c mice and that IL-2 may play an important role in the modulation of granuloma formation in schistosomiasis japonica .
