A new subline of the senescence accelerated mouse (SAM) P1/Yit strain has been established which shows spontaneous enteric inflammation under specific pathogen free (SPF) conditions.
To elucidate the pathogenesis of enteric inflammation in this new subline.
The SPF and germ free (GF) SAMP1/Yit strains were used. Histological, immunological, and microbiological characterisation of the mice with enteric inflammation was performed.
Histologically, enteritic inflammation developed as a discontinuous lesion in the terminal ileum and caecum with the infiltration of many inflammatory cells after 10 weeks of age. the activity of myeloperoxidase, and both immunolocalisation and mRNA expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase increased in the lesion. CD3-epsilon positive T cells, neutrophils, and macrophages were more numerous in the inflamed mucosa of the SAMP1/Yit strain. The GF SAMP1/Yit strain did not show any inflammation in the intestinal wall, by the age of 30 weeks, and the enteritis and caecitis developed 10 weeks after the conventionalisation of the GF SAMP1/Yit strain.
Enteric inflammation in the ileum and caecum developed in the SAMP1/Yit strain. The pathophysiological characteristics of the disease in this mouse have some similarities to those of human inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This mouse strain should be a useful model system for elucidating the interaction between the pathogenesis of IBD and the gut microflora.
已建立了衰老加速小鼠(SAM)P1/Yit品系的一个新亚系,该亚系在无特定病原体(SPF)条件下表现出自发性肠道炎症。
阐明这个新亚系中肠道炎症的发病机制。
使用SPF和无菌(GF)的SAMP1/Yit品系。对患有肠道炎症的小鼠进行组织学、免疫学和微生物学特征分析。
组织学上,10周龄后,小肠末端和盲肠出现不连续病变,伴有大量炎性细胞浸润,形成肠炎。病变部位髓过氧化物酶活性、诱导型一氧化氮合酶的免疫定位及mRNA表达均增加。在SAMP1/Yit品系的炎症黏膜中,CD3-ε阳性T细胞、中性粒细胞和巨噬细胞数量更多。30周龄时,GF SAMP1/Yit品系的肠壁未出现任何炎症,在GF SAMP1/Yit品系常规饲养10周后发生肠炎和盲肠炎。
SAMP1/Yit品系出现回肠和盲肠的肠道炎症。该小鼠疾病的病理生理特征与人类炎症性肠病(IBD)有一些相似之处。该小鼠品系应是阐明IBD发病机制与肠道微生物群之间相互作用的有用模型系统。
