Abstract
To observe the changes of LINGO-1 expression with time after onset in EAE mouse. C57/BL6 mice were completely randomly divided into EAE model group (n = 15) , adjuvant group (n = 15) and control group (n = 15) .LINGO-1 expression of brain tissue was detected on day 1, 7, 14, 21 and 30 after onset by RT-PCR and Western blot.RhoA and p-RhoA expression of brain tissue was analysed by Western blot. The LINGO-1mRNA levels in EAE model group were markedly higher than control group on day 1, 7and 14 after onset (4.63 ± 0.25, 2.72 ± 0.12, 1.98 ± 0.16, P < 0.01, P < 0.01, P < 0.05).On day 30, Lingo-1 mRNA was close to control group.Expression levels of Lingo-1 protein on day 1, 7, 14, 21, 30 were higher than control group (2.11 ± 0.15, 3.15 ± 0.09, 2.45 ± 0.12, 1.89 ± 0.17, 1.21 ± 0.05, P < 0.05, P < 0.01, P < 0.05, P < 0.05, P < 0.05. The levels of p-RhoA protein increased in EAE and the peak appeared on day 1 and day 7 (P < 0.01) . And there was no difference on RhoA expression among different groups. LINGO-1 expression of brain tissue of EAE mouse upregulates and changes with time after onset, which may inhibit myelination by RhoA activation.In clinic, the antagonist of LINGO-1 for MS should be applied as soon as possible.
