Abstract:: |
Objective To analyze the influence of ionizing radiation on the viability of the regulatory T cells and the relationship between the expression of CD39 and apoptosis related factors in mice Treg cells. Methods Mice were administered to whole body irradiation with 2 Gy of γ-rays, then lymphocytes were separated from thymus and spleen. The percentages of CD4+ T and CD4+ FOXP3+ CD25+ Treg lymphocytes, apoptosis related genes of Bax,Bcl-2 and CD39 were analyzed with FACS. Results Treg cells had a higher survival fraction than CD4+FOXP3-Tcon cells after irradiation, and the time-responses of Treg cells in thymus and spleen were different. The apoptosis rate of Treg cells increased at 4 d after irradiation(t=-3.6,-7.4, P<0.05). The Bax/Bcl-2 ratio and the CD39 expression were increased in thymus Treg cells (t=-3.4,-6.6, P<0.05), but decreased in spleen Treg cells (t=2.4, 2.6, P<0.05). Conclusions The changes of apoptosis and Bax/Bcl-2 are in consistent with the expression of CD39 in the irradiated Treg cells. |
