摘要:
Liver X receptors (LXRs) exert anti-inflammatory effects in animal models of certain respiratory diseases. In the present study, a model of chronic airway remodeling was established in wild-type and LXR-deficient mice. Ovalbumin (OVA)-sensitized mice were chronically administered OVA via inhalation for 8 weeks. Prior to each stimulation, certain wild-type mice were treated with GW3965, which is a highly selective LXR agonist. The influence of LXRs on airway inflammation, airway hyperresponsiveness and airway remodeling was evaluated. LXRs were indicated to increase airway inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness, as well as promote airway remodeling. These results suggest that inhibiting LXRs may be a potential method for the treatment of allergic asthma.
