    生物谷报道:蛋白质B-crystallin主要存在于眼睛的晶状体中,它在多发性硬化中所发生的炎症和损伤的发展过程中可能是关键的“引爆点”。过去,人们知道它是多发性硬化患者体内1个主要免疫目标。现在,用小鼠所做的研究工作表明,该蛋白在1个多发性硬化模型中还扮演1个保护角色。当将其注射进实验鼠体内时,它起1种消炎和神经保护因子的作用,并且还能使瘫痪发生逆转。

alphaB-crystallin (CRYAB) is the most abundant gene transcript present in early active multiple sclerosis lesions, whereas such transcripts are absent in normal brain tissue1. This crystallin has anti-apoptotic2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and neuroprotective8 functions. CRYAB is the major target of CD4+ T-cell immunity to the myelin sheath from multiple sclerosis brain9, 10. The pathophysiological implications of this immune response were investigated here. We demonstrate that CRYAB is a potent negative regulator acting as a brake on several inflammatory pathways in both the immune system and central nervous system (CNS). Cryab-/- mice showed worse experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) at the acute and progressive phases, with higher Th1 and Th17 cytokine secretion from T cells and macrophages, and more intense CNS inflammation, compared with their wild-type counterparts. Furthermore, Cryab-/- astrocytes showed more cleaved caspase-3 and more TUNEL staining, indicating an anti-apoptotic function of Cryab. Antibody to CRYAB was detected in cerebrospinal fluid from multiple sclerosis patients and in sera from mice with EAE. Administration of recombinant CRYAB ameliorated EAE. Thus, the immune response against a negative regulator of inflammation, CRYAB, in multiple sclerosis, would exacerbate inflammation and demyelination. This can be countered by giving CRYAB itself for therapy of ongoing disease.
