Abstract

LP-BM5 murine leukemia retrovirus induces the excessive oxidative stress and immune dysfunction leading to B cell leukemia and murine AIDS with cytokine dysfunction. In the present study, the immune restoratory effect of antioxidant hormone dedydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) was investigated in the primary splenocytes from LP-BM5 retrovirus-infected C57BL/6 mice. DHEAS significantly increased T and B cell response to mitogen and normalized the unbalanced production of Th1/Th2 type cytokines. In particular, both protein and mRNA expression of IL-4, IL-6, and $TNF-\alpha$ were down-regulated by DHEAS treatment whereas IL-2 and $IFN-\gamma$ level were increased. This result suggests that DHEAS directly or indirectly regulates the gene expression of Th1/Th2 type cytokines in transcription level. In addition, DHEAS treatment decreased the hepatic lipid peroxidation and preserved vitamin E level in liver cells. These results suggested that DHEAS could effectively prevent immune dysfunction by regulating cytokine secretion and preventing the oxidative stress in murine AIDS.

AIDS로의 진행과정은 단순히 몇몇 기작에 의한 것이 아니라 여러 경로를 거쳐 발생하며 그 진행속도도 개개인에 따라 다양하게 나타나고 있다. 본 연구에서는 쥐 AIDS 모델을 이용하여 항산화호르몬으로 알려진 DHEAS의 면역조절 효과를 확인하고자 하였다. DHEAS의 투여는 LP-BM5 retrovirus 감염으로 인한 T와 B 임파구의 mitogenesis를 증가시켰으며 Th1/Th2 type cytokines의 발현에도 영향을 미쳤는데 주로 전사수준에서 작용한 것으로 생각된다/ 또한 retrovirus 감염으로 인한 간조직의 지질과산화 유발을 억제하여 조직 내의 항산화제인 vitamin E의 함량을 유지시킴으로 NF-kB의 활성화를 통한 retrovirus의 복제를 억제시켜 Th1/Th2 type cytokines의 불균형적인 발현을 저해하였을 것으로 여겨진다. 따라서 쥐 AIDS모델에 있어서 DHEAS의 면역조절 효과를 확인한 본 연구는 향후 HIV감염 이후 AIDS로의 진행 과정 시 항산화제의 역할과 기작 규명에 대한 가능성을 제시할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.
