动脉粥样硬化是一种由先天免疫和适应性免疫细胞介导的血管壁慢性炎症性疾病,这一点已不再有争议。 Galectin-9 (Gal-9) 似乎是 T 细胞免疫的重要调节剂,可诱导与自身免疫和炎症性疾病相关的特定 T 细胞亚群凋亡。越来越多的证据表明,通过 T 细胞免疫球蛋白粘蛋白 3 (TIM-3) 的半乳糖凝集素 9 信号传导与自身免疫中的不同调节功能有关,包括直接耗竭促炎性 T 细胞、扩大调节性 T 细胞的数量、将巨噬细胞改变为抗炎状态以及诱导抑制性骨髓源性抑制细胞。此外,抗 Tim-3-Ab 给药通过阻断 Tim-3-galectin-9 相互作用来增加动脉粥样硬化斑块的形成。因此,我们推测半乳糖凝集素9可能是治疗动脉粥样硬化疾病的一种新疗法。还需要进一步的研究来探讨半乳糖凝集素9在动脉粥样硬化过程中的精确作用。
It is no longer controversial that atherosclerosis is a vascular wall chronic inflammatory disease mediated by cells of innate and adaptive immunity. Galectin-9 (Gal-9) seems to be a crucial regulator of T-cell immunity by inducing apoptosis in specific T-cell subpopulations associated with autoimmunity and inflammatory disease. Accumulating evidence showed that galectin-9 signaling via T-cell immunoglobulin mucin 3 (TIM-3) is concerned with different regulatory functions in autoimmunity, including direct depletion of pro-inflammatory T-cells, expanding the number of regulatory T cells, altering macrophages to an anti-inflammatory state and the induction of repressive myeloid-derived suppressor cells. In addition, anti-Tim-3-Ab administration increased atherosclerotic plaque formation by blocking Tim-3–galectin-9 interaction. Hence, we hypothesize that galectin-9 may be a novel therapy for atherosclerotic disease. Further researches are needed to investigate the precise effect of galectin-9 in the process of atherosclerosis.
