Sex-dependent differential increase of specialized pro-resolving mediators in extracellular vesicles secreted by human primary conjunctival goblet cells during allergic inflammation
Aims
Conjunctival epithelium lines the inside of the eyelids and covers the sclera, thus providing stability to the eye surface. Goblet cells in conjunctival epithelium (CjGCs) are well known for their mucin-secretion function, which wet and protect the ocular surface, but other aspects are still not well understood. To expand our understanding beyond their mucin-secreting function, we investigated CjGC-secreted extracellular vesicles (EVs) and lipid mediators therein.
Materials and methods
Using histamine-mediated allergic inflammation in human primary CjGCs (HCjGCs) as a disease model, we quantified using ELISA a proinflammatory mediator PGE2 and two specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs) LXA4 and RvD1 in EVs secreted during allergic inflammation.
Key findings
At 18 h post histamine stimulation, the amount of LXA4 and RvD1 in EVs was notably higher compared to those in unstimulated. Interestingly, this increase was only observed in female EVs but not in males. The mean fold increase of LXA4 and RvD1 in female EVs was 3.9 and 3.4, respectively, but it was only 0.9 and 1.0 in male EVs. Supplying docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, the source of RvD1 and other SPMs) to the culture medium during the allergic inflammation resulted in even higher mean fold increase of 5.3 and 6.9 for LXA4 and RvD1 in female EVs, respectively, but it was only 0.5 and 0.8 in male EVs.
Significance
We conclude that HCjGCs show a clear sex difference in allergic response. Our results may also provide a new insight into the male predisposition to severe forms of allergic conjunctivitis and potential improvement in disease care in the clinic.
期刊介绍:
Life Sciences is an international journal publishing articles that emphasize the molecular, cellular, and functional basis of therapy. The journal emphasizes the understanding of mechanism that is relevant to all aspects of human disease and translation to patients. All articles are rigorously reviewed.
The Journal favors publication of full-length papers where modern scientific technologies are used to explain molecular, cellular and physiological mechanisms. Articles that merely report observations are rarely accepted. Recommendations from the Declaration of Helsinki or NIH guidelines for care and use of laboratory animals must be adhered to. Articles should be written at a level accessible to readers who are non-specialists in the topic of the article themselves, but who are interested in the research. The Journal welcomes reviews on topics of wide interest to investigators in the life sciences. We particularly encourage submission of brief, focused reviews containing high-quality artwork and require the use of mechanistic summary diagrams.
