Methods: EAU was induced in B6 (C57BL/6) mice by subcutaneous injection of human interphotoreceptor retinoid binding protein and intraperitoneal injection of pertussis toxin. At 1, 2, and 3 weeks post-immunization, the eyeballs were extracted and subjected to histological and molecular assays using real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Results: The levels of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain, Leucine rich Repeat and Pyrin domain 1 (NLRP1), NLRP3, nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein 1 (NOD1), and NOD2 transcripts were increased at 2 weeks and gradually reduced thereafter. Notably, NLRP3 showed the highest expression in the eyes with EAU. Similarly, the transcript level of pro-inflammatory cytokine, interleukin-1β, increased and reached a peak at 2 weeks post-immunization. The retinal structure was severely damaged by inflammation at 3 weeks post-immunization. Conclusions: Among NLRs, NLRP3 may induce inflammation in eyes after EAU immunization.

4 - 대한안과학회지 2015 년제 56 권제 1 호 - 결과 자가면역포도막염유발후안구내에서 Nod양수용체인 NLRP (nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain, Leucine rich Repeat and Pyrin domain)1, NLRP3, NOD (nucleotidebinding oligomerization domain)1, NOD2 의전사체의양이증가하기시작하여 2주째에최대치를보인후 3주째에는감소하였다 (Fig. 1). 이중 NLRP3 전사체의양이가장많았다. 또한, 염증성사이토카인인 IL-1β의전사체의발현도포도막염유발후 2주째에가장높아서 Nod양수용체와비슷한발현양상을보였다 (Fig. 2). 하지만자가면역포도막염유발후망막의구조적파괴는 3주째에가장심하게관찰되었다 (Fig. 2). 포도막염유발후 1주째에는정상과다름없는망막의구조를보였지만 2 주째에는망막광수용체층의파괴가일부분에서관찰되기시작하였다. 3주째에는유리체강내염증세포가침착하고망막층의부종이일어났으며특히망막광수용체층의뒤틀림을동반한파괴가심하게관찰되었다 (Fig. 3). 고찰 포도막염은안구의중간층을이루고있는포도막에발생하는염증성질환으로미국에서 100,000명당 115명의환자가있으며, 특히만성포도막염의경우적절한치료가이루어지지않으면인접한안구조직즉공막, 각막, 망막조직에비가역적인손상을일으켜전체실명의약 10%, 전체실명원인의빈도중 4위를차지하는질환이다. 6,7 포도막염의치료는부신피질호르몬과면역억제제인데적어도 2-3년이상의장기치료가필요해눈과신체다른부위의심각한부작용을초래하여치료를지속하지못하는경우가종종발생하며스테로이드에반응을안하는포도막염도있다. 8 따라서안전하고효과가지속되는새로운약물의개발이요구되고있는상황이다. 염증성질환에대해새로운치료법을개발하기위해서는염증성질환의발병기전에대한분자유전학적새로운이해가필요하다. 최근급성감염성염증질환뿐아니라파킨슨씨병, 알츠하이머병, 심근경색, 비만, 당뇨, 뇌졸중등만성염증성질환에서도중요한발병원인으로염증조절복합체인인플라마좀의역할이새로이대두되고있다. 염증조절복합체는카스파제-1 (caspase-1) 을활성화시켜 IL-1β를성숙시키고분비하게하여염증반응을유도한다. 염증조절복합체에는 NOD양수용체로세포내신호를감지하는수용체와 caspase recruitment domain (CARD) 복합체를유도하는어댑터단백질 (adaptor protein) 이속해있다. 9 본연구에서는실험적자가면역포도막염에서염증조절복합체인 NOD양수용체중기존연구에서여러염증성질환및자가염증질환에관여하는것으로알려진 NLRP1, NLRP3, NOD1, NOD2의 4가지를선정하여분석하였다. 이중 NOD1은 caspase recruitment domain 4 유전자 (CARD4), NOD2는 CARD15 유전자에서발현되는것으로알려졌으며, CARD15 유전자의변이로인한 NOD2의선천성면역체계발현으로크론병이발병하는것으로유명하다. 10 NOD2 변이로나타나는 Blau syndrome 또한유명한데다발장기의염증을일으키며피부염, 관졀염과함께눈에서는포도막염을일으키는것으로도알려졌다. NLRP1, NLRP3은이들단백질이활성화되어선천성면역체계이상으로제2형당뇨병과같은대사성질환이나암, 류마티스관절염및자가면역질환을일으킨다는연구들이많다. 11,12 본연구에서유발된자가면역포도막염에서는위의 4가지 NOD양수용체의안구내발현이대표적인염증성싸이토카인인 IL-1β의발현양상과비슷하게 2주째에가장최고점을찍었으며그이후로점진적으로감소하는양상을보였다. 특히 NLRP3가가장많이발현됨을알수있었다. NLRP3 염증조절복합체는선천성면역체계에관여하여여러자가면역질환과관련이있음이알려졌지만, 13,14 안구내질환에서의작용은알려진바가없다. 본연구는 NOD양수용체가자가면역포도막염의안내에서유의하게증가하고이중 NLRP3의발현이가장특징적으로높음을확인하였다. 앞으로실제로안구내염증성질환에서 NLRP3를비롯한 NOD양수용체의역할을규명하기위한후속연구가필요하겠다.
