炎性肠病在全球范围内发生极其普遍,具有反复发作、难以治愈的特点,也是诱发结直肠癌的高风险因素之一。肠炎的发生与遗传因素密切相关,有报道发现位于GPR35基因座上的多个单核苷酸多态性(single nucleotide polymorphism, SNP)位点rs4676410、rs3749171和rs3749172与肠炎敏感性高度相关,但是GPR35基因在肠炎的发生发展进程中的功能及相关机制尚没有明确结论。为了研究GPR35在肠炎中的作用,首先通过CRISPR/Cas9技术构建Gpr35敲除小鼠,随后利用DSS诱导的肠炎模型评价Gpr35在肠炎发生中的作用,发现敲除小鼠在体重变化、DAI评分、肠上皮损伤以及炎性细胞浸润等肠炎相关指标显著低于野生型小鼠。为了研究肠炎相关SNP突变对GPR35活性的影响,首先根据rs3749171和rs3749172SNP位点突变信息构建GPR35-T108M和GPR35-S294R两种突变型受体,其次通过多种GPR35下游信号通路活性测试,发现两种突变均能够增强GPR35受体活性。最后通过Western blotting分析发现相较于野生型小鼠,Gpr35敲除小鼠肠上皮Erk1/2磷酸化水平增加,表明Gpr35敲除后可能通过上调Erk1/2信号通路的方式抑制肠炎的发生发展。综上所述,本研究发现人类肠炎易感的rs3749171和rs3749172位点可能通过激活GPR35及下游信号通路的方式促进肠炎的发生发展,为炎性肠病的治疗提供了潜在的药物作用靶点。

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has emerged as a public health challenge with high incidence, recurrence rates and low cure rate. Moreover, sustained inflammation increases the risk of colorectal cancer. The occurrence and progression of IBD are closely related to the genetic mutation. Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) analysis demonstrated that the susceptibility loci rs4676410, rs3749171, and rs3749172 in theGPR35 gene locus increase the risk of IBD, but no direct evidence on the function ofGPR35 in IBD progression has been shown. To investigate the role ofGPR35 in IBD, CRISPR/Cas9 technology was employed to construct aGpr35 knockout mouse strain. TheGpr35-/- mice exhibited lower susceptibility to dextran sodium sulfate-induced IBD model than the wildtype group with a significant reduction in body weight loss, DAI score, intestinal epithelial injury, and macrophage cell infiltration. To explore how the IBD susceptibility loci rs3749171 and rs3749172 regulate GPR35 activity, two mutant forms of GPR35 (T108M and S294R) were constructed. By analyzing the activity of GPR35 downstream signaling pathway, the two mutation forms of GPR35 exhibited higher receptor activity to Zaprinast than the wildtype GPR35. Finally, the Western blotting analysis found an elevated phosphorylation level of ERK1/2 inGpr35-/- colon epithelial after DSS treatment, demonstrating that the loss function ofGpr35 alleviates the IBD syndrome by activating the ERK1/2 signaling pathway. In summary, the IBD susceptibility loci rs3749171 and rs3749172 may promote the disease progression by activating GPR35 activity, providing a potential drug target for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease.

Methotrexate for the treatment of Crohn's disease The north american crohn's study group investigators . N Engl J Med , 1995, 332(5): 292-297. BACKGROUND: Although corticosteroids are highly effective in improving symptoms of Crohn's disease, they may have substantial toxicity. In some patients, attempts to discontinue corticosteroids are unsuccessful. METHODS: We conducted a double-blind, placebo-controlled multicenter study of weekly injections of methotrexate in patients who had chronically active Crohn's disease despite a minimum of three months of prednisone therapy. Patients were randomly assigned to treatment with intramuscular methotrexate (25 mg once weekly) or placebo for 16 weeks. The patients also received prednisone (20 mg once a day), which was tapered over 10 weeks unless their condition worsened. The primary outcome measure was clinical remission at the end of the 16-week trial. Remission was defined by the discontinuation of prednisone and a score of < or = 150 points on the Crohn's Disease Activity Index. RESULTS: A total of 141 patients were randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to methotrexate (94 patients) or placebo (47 patients). After 16 weeks, 37 patients (39.4 percent) were in clinical remission in the methotrexate group, as compared with 9 patients (19.1 percent) in the placebo group (P = 0.025; relative risk, 1.95; 95 percent confidence interval, 1.09 to 3.48). The patients in the methotrexate group received less prednisone overall than those in the placebo group (P = 0.026). The mean (+/- SE) score on the Crohn's Disease Activity Index after 16 weeks of treatment was significantly lower in the methotrexate group (162 +/- 12) than in the placebo group (204 +/- 17, P = 0.002). The changes in quality-of-life scores and serum orosomucoid concentrations were similar. In the methotrexate group, 16 patients (17 percent) withdrew from treatment because of adverse events (including asymptomatic elevation of serum aminotransferase in 7 and nausea in 6), as compared with 1 patient (2 percent) in the placebo group. CONCLUSIONS: In a group of patients with chronically active Crohn's disease, methotrexate was more effective than placebo in improving symptoms and reducing requirements for prednisone. |
