目的研究小檗碱对睡眠剥夺大鼠肠道菌群以及辅助性T细胞17(Th17)和调解性T细胞(Treg)细胞的影响.方法将大鼠随机分为对照组、模型组、低和高剂量小檗碱组(BBR1和BBR2,100和200 mg/kg,灌胃10 d干预).小站台水环境法建立睡眠剥夺模型.检测大鼠直肠内容物中细菌数量,流式细胞计量技术分析大鼠肠道Th17/Treg细胞比值,并检测肠道白介素17(IL-17)、RAR相关孤儿受体(ROR)C和叉头框蛋白P3(Foxp3)表达.结果模型组大鼠肠道内产气荚膜梭菌数量增加(P<0.05),而其他检测菌群数量降低(P<0.05);Th17/Treg细胞比值升高(P<0.05);IL-17和RORC表达升高(P<0.05),Foxp3表达降低(P<0.05).小檗碱处理降低产气荚膜梭菌数量(P<0.05),增加其他检测菌群的数量(P<0.05);降低Th17/Treg细胞比值(P<0.05);下调IL-17和RORC表达(P<0.05),上调Foxp3表达(P<0.05).结论小檗碱能够拮抗睡眠剥夺诱导的大鼠肠道菌群结构和Th17/Treg细胞失衡.%Objective To investigate the effect of berberine on gut microbiota and T helper cell 17 (Th17), regulatory T cell (Treg) cell in sleep deprived rats.Methods SD rats were randomized into control group, model group, low-dose and high-dose group (BBR1 and BBR2, 100 mg/kg and 200 mg/kg, administrated orally).Sleep deprived rat model was established by the small-platforms-over-water method.The number of bacteria in rectum content of rat was detected.The ratio of Th17/Treg was evaluated by flow cytometry.The expression of interleukin 17 (IL-17), RAR-related orphan receptor (ROR) C, and Forkhead Box Protein P3 (Foxp3) mRNA was evaluated.Results The counting of Clostridium perfringens was elevated (P<0.05), the amount of other microbiota decreased (P<0.05), Th17/Treg ratio(P<0.05), IL-17 and RORC expression enhanced (P<0.05), Foxp3 expression decreased (P<0.05) in the gut of model rats.In contrast, treatment with berberine inhibited the proliferation of Clostridium perfringens(P<0.05), and promoted the growth of other microbiota (P<0.05), and dampened Th17/Treg ratio (P<0.05), regressed IL-17 and RORC expression, augmented Foxp3 expression.Conclusions Various doses of berberine can counteract gut microbiota imbalance and Th17/Treg imbalance induced by sleep deprivation.
