摘要
AIM： To study the expression of endothelial and inducible nitric oxide synthases （eNOS and iNOS） and their role in inflammatory bowel disease （IBD）. METHODS： We examined the effect of sera obtained from patients with active Crohn＇s disease （CD） and ulcerative colitis （UC） on the function and viability of human umbilical vein endothelial cells （HUVEC）. HUVECs were cultured for 0-48 h in the presence of a medium containing pooled serum of healthy controls, or serum from patients with active CD or UC. Expression of eNOS and iNOS was visualized by immunofluorescence, and quantified by the densitometry of Western blots. Proliferation activity was assessed by computerized image analyses of Ki-67 immunoreactive cells, and also tested in the presence of the NOS inhibitor, 10^-4 mol/L L-NAME. Apoptosis and necrosis was examined by the annexin-V-biotin method and by propidium iodide staining, respectively. RESULTS： In HUVEC immediately after exposure to UC, serum eNOS was markedly induced, reaching a peak at 12 h. In contrast, a decrease in eNOS was observed after incubation with CD sera and the eNOS level was minimal at 20 h compared to control （18%±16% vs 23%± 15% P〈0.01）. UC or CD serum caused a significant increase in iNOS compared to control （UC： 300%±21%; CD： 275% ± 27% vs 108% ± 14%, P〈0.01）. Apoptosis/necrosis characteristics did not differ significantly in either experiment. Increased proliferation activity was detected in the presence of CD serum or after treatment with L-NAME. Cultures showed tube-like formations after 24 h treatment with CD serum. CONCLUSION： IBD sera evoked changes in the ratio of eNOS/iNOS, whereas did not influence the viability of HUVEC. These involved down-regulation of eNOS and up-regulation of iNOS simultaneously, leading to increased proliferation activity and possibly a reduced antiinflammatory protection of endothelial cells.
瞄准：在煽动性的肠疾病(IBD ) 学习内皮和可诱导的氮的氧化物 synthases (eNOS 和 i NOS ) 和他们的角色的表示。方法：我们检验了重量的单位的效果一在人的脐的静脉 endothelial (HUVEC ) 的功能和生存能力上与活跃 Crohn 的疾病(CD ) 和 ulcerative (UC ) 从病人获得了。HUVEC 面对与活跃 CD 或 UC 从病人包含健康控制，或浆液的分享的浆液的媒介为 0-48 h 是有教养的。eNOS 和 i NOS 的表示被免疫荧光设想，并且由西方的污点的测密度术确定了。增长活动被 Ki-67 免疫的计算机化的图象分析估计反应房间，并且也面对 NOS 禁止者测试了， 10 (-4) mol/L L 名字。Apoptosis 和坏死被 annexin-V-biotin 方法并且由分别地染色的 propidium 碘化物检验。结果：在 HUVEC 立即在到 UC 的暴露以后，浆液 eNOS 显著地被导致，在 12 h 到达一座山峰。相反，在 eNOS 的减少与 CD 重量的单位在孵化以后被观察一 eNOS 铺平的 and 在与控制(18%+/-16% 对 23%+/-15% P<0.01 ) 相比的 20 h 是最小的。UC 或 CD 浆液与控制相比在 i NOS 引起了重要增加(UC：300%+/-21% ；CD：275%+/-27% 对 108%+/-14% ， P<0.01 ) 。Apoptosis/necrosis 特征没在任何一个实验显著地不同。增加的增长活动与 L 名字面对 CD 浆液或术后疗法被检测。文化与 CD 浆液在 24 h 处理以后显示出像试管的形成。结论：IBD 重量的单位一在 eNOS/iNOS 的比率的唤起的变化，而没影响 HUVEC 的生存能力。这些同时包含了 eNOS 的下面规定和 i NOS 的起来规定，导致增加的增长活动并且可能 endothelial 的减少的反煽动性的保护。
