冷诱导RNA结合蛋白(CIRP)是哺乳动物间高度保守的多功能蛋白,但其在病毒感染中的作用尚不清楚,本研究旨在探讨CIRP对甲型流感病毒感染的应答。用H1N1甲型流感病毒PR-8株滴鼻接种成年BALB/c小鼠,分别于感染后24、48、72、96、120 h随机处死3只,用荧光定量RT-PCR和免疫组化法分别检测小鼠心、肝、脾和肺中CIRP基因和蛋白质的表达水平。基因定量检测结果显示,感染小鼠各被检器官中CirpmRNA的转录量显著升高;免疫组化试验结果显示,CIRP在感染小鼠心肌细胞、肺泡上皮细胞、肺支气管上皮细胞和脾淋巴细胞的细胞质中表达量均有不同程度的升高。综上可见,CIRP参与机体对H1N1甲型流感病毒感染的应答,由于CIRP对炎性因子产生过程具有显著的调节作用,其在流感病毒感染过程中的作用值得深入研究。

冷诱导RNA结合蛋白;甲型流感病毒;荧光定量RT-PCR;免疫组化

冷诱导RNA结合蛋白(cold induced RNA binding protein,CIRP)是RNA结合蛋白家族的异源核糖核蛋白(hnRNP)亚群成员[1],是哺乳动物中最早鉴定出的与冷应激相关的蛋白质[2],在多种应激状态下发挥细胞保护作用[2-7]。最近的研究表明,在LPS刺激和败血症情况下,CIRP通过调节NF-κB信号通路影响多种炎性因子的产生[8],并通过调节TRL4促进炎症发生[9],是一种新的促炎介质[10],在细菌感染中发挥重要作用。甲型流感病毒可引起人和多种动物严重的呼吸道感染[11],其引起的细胞因子风暴是引起重症肺炎和致死的主要原因[12],肺上皮细胞和炎性浸润在肺的病理性损伤中起重要作用[13]。CIRP与病毒感染的联系尚不清楚,本研究旨在探讨CIRP对甲型流感病毒感染的应答。

2.2Cirp基因对H1N1甲型流感病毒感染的转录应答

荧光定量RT-PCR检测结果显示,CirpmRNA在健康小鼠的心、肝、脾和肺等器官中均有转录,在肝中转录量最低,其在心、脾和肺中的转录量分别为肝转录量的7.6、7.4和2.2倍(图2)。CirpmRNA在感染H1N1甲型流感病毒后显著升高,但在不同器官上升的时间点不同(图3)。

2.3CIRP在小鼠组织器官中的定位及对H1N1甲型流感病毒感染的应答

免疫组化结果显示,CIRP在健康小鼠和感染小鼠心肌细胞、肝细胞、肺泡上皮细胞、肺支气管黏膜上皮细胞和脾淋巴细胞的细胞质中表达,甲型流感病毒感染未引起CIRP细胞定位的改变(图4)。

3 讨 论

已知CIRP存在于多种不同类型的细胞中,是哺乳动物种间高度保守的多功能蛋白,参与对温度[2]、H2O2[3]、缺氧[4]、渗透压[5]等多种应激的转录应答,多种应激因子诱导机体CIRP的表达量升高和/或发生核质迁移,发挥细胞保护作用[2-7,15]。此外还参与胚胎发育、神经调节[19]和生物钟调节等生理过程,并参与机体对细菌的应答,但CIRP对病毒感染的应答未见报道。本研究发现CIRP在甲型流感病毒感染小鼠心、肝、脾、肺等器官中无论是基因还是蛋白质的水平均显著升高,证明其具有参与机体对流感病毒感染应答的功能。研究证明机体在LPS刺激下CIRP表达量升高,通过激活NF-κB信号通路诱导产生炎性因子,流感病毒感染能引发机体的炎性损伤,H5N1高致病性禽流感病毒刺激肺上皮细胞和巨噬细胞释放大量细胞因子,在细胞因子风暴中起重要作用[12]。在本研究中,CIRP在流感病毒感染小鼠体内表达量升高,极有可能通过调节炎性因子的产生,进而参与机体对流感病毒感染的应答过程。

RNA结合蛋白家族的某些成员在流感病毒感染中发挥着重要作用。S.D.Shapira等[20]发现一个RNA结合蛋白调控网络,能通过影响IFN-β的合成来抵抗机体对流感病毒的免疫作用,而RNA结合蛋白3(RanBP3)可通过Ser58位点的磷酸化作用促进流感病毒vRNP的出核转运[21]。ERK和NF-κB信号通路是流感病毒复制和机体起始免疫不可或缺的重要环节[22~25],因此推测作为这两条信号通路的上游调控因子,CIRP在流感病毒感染过程中表达量升高也可能影响流感病毒的复制,其在流感病毒感染中的作用值得进一步研究。

Cold induced RNA binding protein (CIRP) is a highly conserved multifunctional protein among vertebrates,but its role in viral infection is unclear.The objective of this paper was to explore the response of CIRP to influenza virus infection.The BALB/c mice were intranasal inoculated with H1N1 influenza A virus.Three mice were randomly selected in each group and euthanized at 24,48,72,96,120 h post infection.The heart,liver,spleen and lung of each mouse were collected.Real-time RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry (IMH) were used to detect the transcription ofCirpmRNA and expression of CIRP in each organ.The results of Real-time RT-PCR exhibited that theCirpmRNA significantly increased in all detected organs.The results of IMH test showed that CIRP protein was highly expressed in cytoplasm of myocardial cells,alveolar epithelial cells,bronchial epithelium cells and spleen lymphocytes.In summary,CIRP is involved in the response to influenza A virus infection,because CIRP can significantly regulate the production of inflammatory factors,the role of CIRP in influenza virus infection should be further studied.
