High-fat diets (HFD) have recently become a public health concern. We hypothesize that HFD induces exosomes biogenesis in the lung tissue of rat model.
Sixteen adult male Wistar rats were fed with HFD or a regular chow diet for 3 months. The histopathological changes in lung tissues were measured by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) was performed to assay exosomes by acetylcholinesterase enzyme (AhCE) activity. Real-time PCR (qPCR) was used to evaluate Rab27-b, Alix, and IL-1β expression, while the immunohistochemical examination was performed for CD81 expression in lung tissues. In addition, expression of IL-1β was detected by ELISA. We found pathological alterations in the lung tissue of HFD animals. AhCE activity along with the expression level of Rab27-b, Alix, and IL-1β was increased in HFD animals (p < 0.05). Immunohistochemical staining showed that expression of CD81 was increased in lung tissues of HFD animals compared with the control group (p < 0.05).
Hence, HFD induced exosomes biogenesis and histopathological changes with IL-1β expression in rats' lung tissues.
高脂肪饮食(HFD)最近成为公共卫生关注的焦点。我们假设 HFD 会诱导大鼠模型肺组织中的外泌体生物发生。
16 只成年雄性 Wistar 大鼠分别用 HFD 或常规饮食喂养 3 个月。用苏木精和伊红(H&E)染色测量肺组织的组织病理学变化。通过乙酰胆碱酯酶(AhCE)活性测定支气管肺泡灌洗液(BAL)中的外泌体。实时 PCR(qPCR)用于评估 Rab27-b、Alix 和 IL-1β 的表达,而免疫组织化学检查用于检测肺组织中 CD81 的表达。此外,通过 ELISA 检测 IL-1β 的表达。我们发现 HFD 动物的肺组织存在病理改变。HFD 动物的 AhCE 活性以及 Rab27-b、Alix 和 IL-1β 的表达水平均升高(p<0.05)。免疫组织化学染色显示 HFD 动物肺组织中 CD81 的表达高于对照组(p<0.05)。
因此,HFD 诱导了大鼠肺组织中外泌体的生物发生和伴有 IL-1β 表达的组织病理学变化。
