Abstract: Objective To evaluate the effect of translocator protein( TSPO,Mr18 000) on the productions of TNF-α,IL-1βand IL-6 in lipopolysaccharide( LPS)-stimulated BV-2 cells. Methods RNA interference technique was used to decrease TSPO expression in BV-2 cells. Western blotting was performed to assess the level of TSPO protein in BV-2 cells transfected with TSPO siRNA. Then the mRNA and protein levels of TNF-α,IL-1β,and IL-6 were measured in LPS-stimulated BV-2 cells by real-time quantitative PCR( qRT-PCR) and ELISA,respectively. Results The level of TSPO protein obviously decreased in BV-2 cells transfected with TSPO siRNA. However,knockdown of TSPO had no effect on the productions of TNF-α,IL-1βand IL-6 in LPS-stimulated BV-2 cells. Conclusion Down-regulated TSPO is not directly involved in regulating TNF-α,IL-1βand IL-6 productions induced by LPS in microglia.
