Abstract: ObjectiveToinvestigatethetherapeuticefectof thenaturalcompoundniranthinonCrohn'sdisease-likecolitisin mice and explore the underlying molecular mechanisms.Methods In a mouse model of colitis induced by 2,4,6 -trinitrobenzenesulfonicacid (TNBS),the therapeutic efect of niranthin was evaluated byobserving the changes inbody weight, diseaseactivityindex (DAI),andcolonlengthofthemice.Thelevelsofinflammatorycytokines (IL-6,IL-1β,F- αι IL-17A and IL-10)inthe intestinal mucosal tissue were detected using ELISA and quantitativereal-time PCR (qRT-PCR).TUNEL stainingandWesternblotingwereusedtoassessintestinalepithelialcellapotosisandtheexpresonsofcl-2andBax.The expresion levelsof tight junction proteins (ZO-1and claudin-1)andtheactivationof the p38/JNK signaling pathway were investigatedusing Westernblotinganddiprovociminterventionexperimentswereconducted toexplorethemolecular regulatorymechanismof niranthin.ResultsNiranthintreatmentsignificantlyincreasedbody weightofTNBS-treatedmice, loweredtheDAIandhistologicalinflammationscores,andincreasedcolonlengthofthemice.Theniranthin-treatedmouse modelsshowed obviouslyreduced proteinandmRNAlevels ofIL-6,IL-1β,IL-17A,and NF- α and upregulated expression of IL-10in thecolontissue.TUNELstainingandWesternblotting demonstratedthatniranthinsignificantlyinhibited intestinal epithelialcellapoptosisandactivated theanti-apoptoticpathwayinthemousemodels.Niranthintreatmentobviously upregulated theexpresionlevelsofZO-1andclaudin-1anddownregulatedthephosphorylationlevelsof p38andJNKinthe colontissues of the mice. Diprovocim intervention obviouslyatenuated the inactivation of thep38/JNK signaling pathway inducedbyniranthininthemousemodels.ConclusionNiranthinamelioratesTNBS-inducedCrohn'sdisease-likecolitisin micebyinhibitingintestinalepithelialcellapoptosisandprotectingtheintegrityoftheintestialbarierviaregulatingthe activation of the p38/JNK signaling pathway.

克罗恩病(CD)是一种以慢性透壁性炎症为特征的炎症性肠病(IBD),病变多累及回肠末端及结肠,临床表现为反复腹痛、腹泻、体质量减轻及肠外并发症,严重影响患者生存质量[-3]。(剩余16809字)
