RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a major complication after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. OBJECTIVE: To elucidate the role of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), the major receptor for bacterial lipopolysaccharide, in the development of GVHD, we constructed a GVHD model in TLR4 knockout (TLR4-/-) mice and monitored the cell chimerism. METHODS: In this study, we used polymerase chain reaction to identify whether TLR4 knockout (TLR4-/-) mice were established. Before transplantation, we pretreated mice with irradiation so as to obtain an appropriate irradiation dose. Flow cytometry was applied to measure the chimerism status, the distributions of antigen-presenting cells (APCs), and T-cells in TLR4+/+ and TLR4-/- recipient mice. RESULTS: The general condition of TLR4-/- recipients was better than that of TLR4+/+ recipients, and the TLR4-/- recipient mice showed less severe GVHD manifestations than the TLR4+/+ recipient mice. Most of the APCs and T-cells in the host mouse spleen were derived from donor cells, and CD4+ T-cells, including memory T-cells, were in the majority in host mice. CONCLUSION: In general, our data show that TLR4 deletion attenuated GVHD development, which suggests that TLR4 could be used as a novel target and therapeutic paradigm in GVHD therapies.


ANTECEDENTES: La enfermedad de injerto contra huésped (EICH) es una complicación importante después del trasplante alogénico de células madre hematopoyéticas. OBJETIVOS: Para dilucidar el papel de TLR4, el principal receptor de LPS bacteriano, en el desarrollo de GVHD, construimos un modelo de GVHD en ratones knockout para TLR4 (TLR4-/-) y monitoreamos el quimerismo celular. MÉTODOS: En este estudio, usamos PCR para identificar si se establecieron ratones knockout para TLR4 (TLR4-/-). Antes del trasplante, pretratamos a los ratones con irradiación para obtener la dosis de irradiación adecuada. Se aplicó citometría de flujo para medir el estado de quimerismo, las distribuciones de APC y células T en ratones receptores TLR4+/+ y TLR4-/-. RESULTADOS: El estado general de los receptores de TLR4-/- fue mejor que el de los receptores de TLR4+/+, y los ratones receptores de TLR4-/- mostraron manifestaciones de GVHD menos graves que los ratones receptores de TLR4+/+. La mayoría de las APC y las células T en el bazo del ratón huésped se derivaron de las células del donante, y las células T CD4+, incluidas las células T de memoria, se encontraban en su mayoría en los ratones huéspedes. CONCLUSIÓN: En general, nuestros datos muestran que la eliminación de TLR4 atenuó el desarrollo de GVHD, lo que sugiere que TLR4 podría usarse como un nuevo objetivo y paradigma terapéutico en las terapias de GVHD.

RESUMO

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are well-characterized in mice and rats, but little is known on their role in broiler chickens during acute heat stress (AHS). The aim of the present study was to estimate the change in TLR4 mRNA expression in the liver, kidney's pleen, heart, and small intestine of broiler chickens under AHS. A total of 240 healthy Arbor Acres (AA) broiler chickens were randomly divided into four groups: control group (22±1°C; 0h), HS2, HS5 and HS10 (38±1°C; 2h, 5h and 10h of heat stress, respectively). As AHS duration increased, TLR4 mRNA expression slightly decreased at HS2 and HS5, but was dramatically elevated in HS10 (p 0.001) compared with the control group in the small intestine, as well as in the spleen at HS2 (p=0.001) and HS10 (p 0.001). The mRNA expression levels of TLR4 significantly increased in the liver, heart, and kidneys (p 0.001) at HS10, and in the kidneys at HS5 (p=0.003). It is found that TLR4 mRNA expression at HS10 in different organs was significantly higher (p 0.001) compared with HS2 and HS5. The results of the present study suggest that AHS may modulate the functional responses of the liver, kidney, spleen, heart, and small intestine of broilers by regulating TLR4 mRNA expression.(AU)
