Core Tip |
Toxoplasma ROP16Ⅰ/Ⅲ (ToxoROP16Ⅰ/Ⅲ) induced RAW264.7 polarization to M2 macrophage, down-regulation the M1 associated inflammation response and protective Caco-2 intestinal epithelial cells. ToxoROP16Ⅰ/Ⅲ can phosphorylate and activate the transcription factors signal transducer and activator of signal transducer and activator of transcription (Stat) 3 and Stat6, promote the polarization of M2 cells, enhance the synthesis of arginase-1, interleukin (IL)-10, transforming growth factor-β1, and IL-13. M2 mixed with M1 macrophage cells, down-regulation the proinflammatory factors IL-1β, tumour necrosis factor-α, IL-6, nitric oxide (NO), and inducible NO synthase. Then co-culture with Caco-2 cells through transwell, alleviated Caco-2 cell apoptosis and caspase-3, -8, and -9 associated proteins. So this study aims to identify that ToxoROP16Ⅰ/Ⅲ may provide a novel strategy for IBD immunotherapy with parasite-derived effector molecules. |
