Description

Construction method and application of interstitial lung disease variable animal model
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of biological medicines, in particular to a construction method and application of an interstitial lung disease variable animal model.
Background
Interstitial lung lesions (interstitial lung disease, ILD) are a general term for clinical-pathological entities consisting of groups of different kinds of diseases with diffuse lung parenchyma, alveolar inflammation and interstitial fibrosis as the pathological basis, with active dyspnea, diffuse infiltration shadows of X-ray chest, restrictive ventilation disorders, reduced Diffuse (DLCO) function and hypoxia as clinical manifestations.
ILD is not generally malignant nor considered to be caused by known infectious agents at present, but the most common extra-articular manifestations of rheumatoid arthritis (rheumatoid arthritis, RA) occur in about 40-80% of RA patients with mortality rates of 10-20% and average survival times of 5-8 years. ILD prognosis is extremely poor and is one of the leading causes of death in RA patients.
The establishment of an experimental animal model is an important basis for researching pathogenesis and developing innovative medicaments. Although RA animal models such as collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) and adjuvant-induced arthritis (AA) mimic the clinical symptoms and pathological features of arthritis very well, ILD morbidity is low. The tracheal injection of bleomycin is the most common method of ILD at present, but the method has simple operation and low cost, but the range of lung lesions is limited, and the method has differences with the diffuse distribution of human lesions and can cause irreversible organic injury to animals. It is therefore desirable to establish an animal model of RA-ILD that has both RA characteristics and high ILD incidence and significant ILD symptoms.
According to the prior literature, animal models of RA-ILD are mainly CIA, AA, collagen-induced bleomycin type (CIA+BLM), transgenic mice and zymosan-combined animal models of transgenic mice. However:
(1) The most used CIA model and AA model are common animal models of RA, and the incidence rate of the lung interstitial lesions of the CIA model and the AA model based on RA is low.
(2) The cia+blm model (e.g. CN110604098A, CN 116076438A) has a limited range of lung lesions, is different from the diffuse distribution of human lesions, and can cause irreversible organic injury to animals.
(3) Transgenic mice and transgenic mice combine with zymosan animal models, requiring a long time to develop, and are unable to replicate completely the associated pulmonary pathological manifestations of the major type UIP (interstitial pneumonia) in RA-ILD.
In addition, environmental factors including smoking and periodontitis are recognized environmental triggers that can cause inflammation in the lungs, and are also key risk factors for ILD occurrence in RA patients. It may induce the formation of autoantibodies in RA patients, associated with high titers of anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide (CCP) antibodies. None of the animal models involved environmental factors, and therefore the model was different from the RA-ILD generation mechanism.

Compared with CIA group, the IgG content of Pg group is obviously reducedP<0.01). Compared with Pg+CIA group, the expression level of anti-CCP antibody, anti-Pg antibody and IgG antibody in Pg group is obviously lessP<0.01 and 0.05) and the expression level of the CIA group anti-Pg antibody is reducedP<0.05, 0.01), as shown in particular in fig. 2.
2.3 Knee joint histopathological detection
The pathological characteristics of RA are chronic invasive arthritis, and histopathological observation of joints is the most important method for evaluating the morbidity characteristics and the disease severity of RA model animals in the current experimental study. The knee joint HE staining results show that the normal mice and the Pg mice have smooth joint surfaces, no pannus is formed, and the cells are orderly arranged. Both group CIA and pg+cia showed significant proliferation of synovial tissue around ankle cavity and protruding into joint cavity, joint gap was narrowed, the proliferated synovial tissue invaded subcutaneously, a fibrosclerotic focus was partially formed, massive inflammatory cell infiltration and granulation tissue proliferation in synovium, synovial pannus formation, and significant injury of bone and cartilage appeared, as shown in fig. 3. The pathological integral is carried out in 4 aspects of synovitis, pannus, cartilage destruction, bone destruction and the like.
2.4 Micro-CT imaging detection
The Micro-CT 3D reconstruction result shows that the knee joint of the Control group is smooth and complete, and the bone contour is clear. The Pg group showed slight bone erosion and joint cavity stenosis. The knee joint surfaces of the mice in the CIA group and the mice in the Pg+CIA group are loose and rough, the bone structure is eroded, and the bone tissue shows that a piece of honeycomb erosion points appear. Further bone metrology statistics showed that Pg+CIA groups BMD, BV/TV, tb.Th, tb.N were statistically different from Control and Pg groups (P < 0.05), as shown in FIG. 4.
2.5 Lung tissue HE staining pathology detection
The pathological characteristics of the lung interstitial lesions are alveolar and lung interstitial inflammatory cell infiltration, severe thickening of the alveolar wall, fibrosis and nodule formation, and histopathological observation of the lung are the most important methods for evaluating the disease characteristics and the disease severity of lung interstitial lesion model animals in the current experimental study. The lung tissue HE staining result shows that the lung tissue structure of the normal group mice is clear, the surface of the alveoli is smooth, no obvious deformation or rupture exists, the airway epithelial cells are orderly arranged, and the interstitial tissue is not infiltrated by inflammatory cells; group Pg mice have alveolar massive hemorrhage, edema, necrosis, moderate or severe thickening of alveolar septum, with mild or moderate inflammatory cell infiltration, predominantly lymphocytes and monocytes. The difference is obvious compared with the normal group; a small amount of fibrous tissue hyperplasia is visible in the interstitium and bronchi; the CIA mice have slightly or moderately thickened alveolar walls and slightly or slightly infiltrated inflammatory cells, mainly comprise lymphocytes and mononuclear macrophages, and have obvious differences compared with the normal group; the interstitial and bronchus have little fibrous tissue hyperplasia, and no statistical difference is seen compared with the normal group; the Pg+CIA group mice have large-area alveolar hemorrhage, edema and necrosis, the alveolar space is slightly to severely thickened, interstitial visible moderate or severe granulomatous inflammatory cell infiltration is distributed in a bulk shape, lymphocytes and monocytes are used as main materials, a small amount of neutrophil granulocyte is aggregated, interstitial and bronchus visible more fibrous tissue hyperplasia is obviously aggravated (P is less than 0.01) compared with the normal group, pg and model group. As shown in fig. 5, pathological integration was performed on the degree of alveolar inflammatory lesions, interstitial inflammatory cell infiltration, and the degree of alveolar wall thickening 3.
The Pg group can induce symptoms of interstitial lung disease, but after a certain period of administration of Pg, such as from the first immunization (day 14) or the second immunization (day 28), pg intervention cannot continue to significantly exacerbate lung lesions.
2.6 Masson staining of Lung tissue
Masson trichromatic staining is one of the most classical methods in connective tissue staining, also called Masson staining, is one of the main methods for showing fibers in tissues, and is an authoritative and classical technical method for staining collagen fibers. As shown in fig. 6, the lung tissue structure of the normal group mice is clear, the surface of the alveoli is smooth, no obvious deformation or rupture exists, the airway epithelial cells are orderly arranged, and the interstitial tissue is not infiltrated by inflammatory cells; large-area hemorrhage, edema and necrosis of alveoli, moderate or severe thickening of alveoli interval, mild or moderate inflammatory cell infiltration, mainly lymphocytes and monocytes are seen under Pg group microscope. The difference is obvious compared with the normal pair; a small amount of fibrous tissue hyperplasia is visible in the interstitium and bronchi; the CIA group can be used for observing the slight or moderate thickening of the alveolar wall, and the slight or slight inflammatory cell infiltration is carried out, and the lymphocyte and the mononuclear macrophage are mainly used, so that the difference is obvious compared with the normal group; the interstitial and bronchus have little fibrous tissue hyperplasia, and no statistical difference is seen compared with the normal group; the CIA+Pg group can be used for treating large-area alveolar hemorrhage, edema and necrosis, alveolar space is slightly-severely thickened, interstitial cells can be used for treating moderate or severe granulomatous inflammatory cell infiltration, the interstitial cells are distributed in a bulk shape, lymphocytes and monocytes are used as main components, a small amount of neutrophil granulocyte aggregates are also used for treating more fibrous tissue hyperplasia of the interstitial cells and bronchi, and the interstitial cells and bronchus are obviously aggravated (P is less than 0.01) compared with the normal group, the Pg model group and the CIA model group.
2.7 immunohistochemistry of Lung tissue
Compared with the normal control group, the expression levels of alpha-SMA, col I and FN protein in the lung tissues of the mice in the Pg group, the CIA group and the Pg+CIA group are obviously increased compared with the normal groupP<0.01 A) is provided; compared with Pg+CIA group, the expression level of ColI protein in Pg group is obviously reducedP<0.01 The expression level of alpha-SMA, col I and FN proteins in CIA group is obviously reducedP<0.05, 0.01); there was no significant difference in expression of the three proteins between the CIA and Pg groups. The result of the fibrosis related mRNA detection experiment shows that compared with the normal control group, the expression level of the Pg group alpha-SMA mRNA is obviously increasedP<0.01 The expression level of alpha-SMA and FN mRNA in CIA group is obviously increasedP<0.01 Pg+CIA group I Collagen (Collagen I, col I), alpha-SMA, FN and sialylated sugar chain antigen-6 (Correlation of Krebs von den Lungen-6, KL-6) mRNA expression levels were significantly increasedP<0.01 A) is provided; compared with Pg+CIA group, the expression quantity of alpha-SMA, FN and KL-6 mRNA in Pg group and CIA group is obviously reducedP<0.01, 0.05). The results are shown in FIG. 7, A, B, C.
2.8 Lung tissue q-PCR
The detection experimental result of inflammatory factor mRNA shows that compared with the normal control group, the Pg group tumor necrosis factor-alpha (tumor necrosis factor-alpha, TNF-alpha) mRNAThe expression quantity is obviously increasedP<0.01 The expression level of interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) mRNA in CIA group is obviously increasedP<0.01 The expression level of Pg+CIA group TNF-alpha, interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-1 beta mRNA are obviously increasedP<0.01 A) is provided; compared with Pg+CIA group, the expression level of IL-1 beta mRNA in Pg group is obviously reducedP<0.01 IL-6 and TNF-alpha mRNA expression level in CIA group is obviously reducedP<0.05, 0.01); TNF-alpha mRNA expression level in Pg group is higher than that in CIA groupP<0.01). The results are shown in FIG. 8.
From the above results, it can be seen that Pg alone can induce only mild ILD, but not arthritis, CIA and Pg+CIA can both induce arthritis and ILD, and the pathological changes of the two groups of arthritis are similar; compared with the Pg and CIA groups alone, the ILD lesion degree of Pg+CIA, especially the fibrosis degree is obviously serious, the CCP resistant content is obviously increased, and the Pg+CIA can induce obvious RA-ILD, has high lesion degree of ILD and arthritis, has lesion characteristics similar to human beings, and better simulates joint performance and lung performance of smoking patients and periodontitis patients in RA-ILD.
