This study intends to investigate the effect of active vitamin D (VD) on the expression of triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) in the renal tissues of diabetic nephropathy (DN) rats and to explore the impact of TREM-1 on macrophage adhesion and migration. We find that the expressions of TREM-1 and CD68 protein are higher in DN rats compared with rats in the normal control group and that these changes are decreased in the DN + VD group. In vitro, the capacity for macrophage adhesion and migration and the expression of TREM-1 are increased under high-glucose conditions, but VD inhibits this progress. TREM-1 siRNA decreases high-glucose-induced macrophage adhesion and migration, whereas over-expression of TREM-1 inhibits its action. However, VD cannot suppress high glucose-induced TREM-1 expression and macrophage adhesion and migration when TREM-1 is over-expressed. These results demonstrate that VD can suppress macrophage adhesion and migration by reducing the expression of TREM-1.
本研究旨在探讨活性维生素 D(VD)对糖尿病肾病(DN)大鼠肾组织中髓系细胞触发受体-1(TREM-1)表达的影响,并探讨 TREM-1对巨噬细胞黏附和迁移的影响。我们发现,与正常对照组大鼠相比,DN 大鼠的 TREM-1 和 CD68 蛋白表达更高,而在 DN+VD 组这些变化则减少。在体外,高糖条件下巨噬细胞黏附和迁移的能力以及 TREM-1 的表达增加,但 VD 抑制了这一过程。TREM-1 siRNA 降低高糖诱导的巨噬细胞黏附和迁移,而过表达 TREM-1 则抑制其作用。然而,当 TREM-1 过表达时,VD 不能抑制高糖诱导的 TREM-1 表达和巨噬细胞黏附和迁移。这些结果表明,VD 可以通过降低 TREM-1 的表达来抑制巨噬细胞的黏附和迁移。
