摘要

The form of (1-3)-beta-d glucan found in the cell walls of the anamorphic Trichocomaceae that grow on damp building materials is considered to have potent toxic and inflammatory effects on cells of the respiratory system. It is also considered to have a potential role in the development of non-allergenic respiratory health effects. While human studies involving experimental exposures all point to the inflammatory potential of pure curdlan, a linear (1-3)-beta-d glucan in a triple helix configuration, animal experiments result in conflicting conclusions concerning the inflammatory potency of this glucan. However, because mice appear to be a better model than guinea pigs for exploring the respiratory effects of curdlan and because molecular mechanisms associated with this glucan remain largely unknown, we conducted further work to clarify the role of curdlan on the inflammatory response using our mouse model of lung disease. This study used in situ hybridization (ISH) to probe dectin-1 mRNA transcription with a digoxigenin-labeled cDNA probe, with reverse transcription (RT)-PCR based arrays used to measure inflammation gene and receptor transcriptional responses. Also, immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to probe dectin-1 as well as anti-mouse Ccl3, Il1-alpha, and TNF-alpha expression to evaluate dose and time-course (4 and 12 h) postex-posure (PE) response patterns in the lungs of intratracheally instilled mice exposed to a single 50 ul dose of curdlan at 10~(-7), 10~(-8), 10~(-9), and 10~(-10) M/animal (=4 mug to 4 ng curd-lan/kg lung wt). Dectin-1 mRNA transcription and expression was observed in bronchiolar epithelium, alveolar macrophages (AMs), and alveolar type II cells (ATIIs) of lungs exposed to 4 ug to 40 ng curdlan/kg lung wt, at both time points. Compared to controls, array analysis revealed that 54 of 83 genes assayed were significantly modulated by curdlan. mRNA transcription patterns showed both dose and time dependency, with highest transcription levels in 10~(-7) and 10~(-8) M treatment animals, especially at 4-h PE. Nine gene mRNA transcripts (Ccl3, Ccll1, Cell 7, Ifng, Il1alpha, Il-20, TNF-alpha, Tnfrsflb, and CD40lg) were significantly expressed at all doses suggesting they may have a central role in immunomodulating curdlan exposures. IHC revealed Ccl3, Il1-alpha, and TNF-alpha expression in bronchiolar epithelium, AMs and ATIIs illustrate the important immunomodulatory role that these cells have in the recognition of, and response to glucan. Collectively, these results confirm the inflammatory nature of curdlan and demonstrate the complex of inflammation-associated gene responses induced by (1-3)-beta-d glucan in triple helical forms. These observations also provide a biological basis for the irritant and inflammatory response to curdlan observed in humans and animals in experimental studies.
