Abstract
To analysis repair function of mucin-2(MUC2) and glycoprotein particles on the tight junction protein of uterus under bacterial endotoxins. In this experiment, we showed that the thicker mucus layer of the uterus is used to prevent the translocation of endotoxin at 21d postdelivery. When endotoxin acts on the uterus to thin its mucous layer, the cells in the lamina propria of the uterus secrete a large number of glycoprotein particles at 27d postdelivery. Due to a significantly decrease in the expression of glycosyltransferase, the glycoprotein particles are incompletely glycosylation MUC2, which can interact with the cell membrane and are released in large quantities in the form of exocytosis. These glycoprotein particles can significantly repair tight junction proteins in the inter-cellular space and significantly increase the expression of Claudin-1, JAM (Junction adhesion molecule-A), E-cadherin, ZO-1(Zonula occludens-1) and desmosome proteins after endotoxin treatment. The results of the present study show that endotoxins can thin the uterine mucus layer and accelerate the release of incompletely glycosylated MUC2 from lamina propria cells. In inter-cellular spaces, MUC2 can increase its expression levels and distribution area to repair the tight junction structure of cells with larger gaps. Further strengthening of the barrier prevents endotoxin translocation by repairing the tight junction structure of uterine epithelial cells.
期刊介绍：
Toxicon has an open access mirror Toxicon: X, sharing the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review. An introductory offer Toxicon: X - full waiver of the Open Access fee.
Toxicon''s "aims and scope" are to publish:
-articles containing the results of original research on problems related to toxins derived from animals, plants and microorganisms
-papers on novel findings related to the chemical, pharmacological, toxicological, and immunological properties of natural toxins
-molecular biological studies of toxins and other genes from poisonous and venomous organisms that advance understanding of the role or function of toxins
-clinical observations on poisoning and envenoming where a new therapeutic principle has been proposed or a decidedly superior clinical result has been obtained.
-material on the use of toxins as tools in studying biological processes and material on subjects related to venom and antivenom problems.
-articles on the translational application of toxins, for example as drugs and insecticides
-epidemiological studies on envenoming or poisoning, so long as they highlight a previously unrecognised medical problem or provide insight into the prevention or medical treatment of envenoming or poisoning. Retrospective surveys of hospital records, especially those lacking species identification, will not be considered for publication. Properly designed prospective community-based surveys are strongly encouraged.
-articles describing well-known activities of venoms, such as antibacterial, anticancer, and analgesic activities of arachnid venoms, without any attempt to define the mechanism of action or purify the active component, will not be considered for publication in Toxicon.
-review articles on problems related to toxinology.
To encourage the exchange of ideas, sections of the journal may be devoted to Short Communications, Letters to the Editor and activities of the affiliated societies.
