新一期英國《自然-免疫學(xué)》雜志刊登報告說,維生素D不僅是身體生長發(fā)育所必需的,在免疫方面也發(fā)揮著重要作用,它是免疫細胞T細胞對異物發(fā)動攻擊的“司令員”。
丹麥哥本哈根大學(xué)研究人員報告說,免疫系統(tǒng)中的T細胞具有識別并攻擊細菌和病毒等異物的功能,但它平時并不處于“戰(zhàn)斗狀態(tài)”,需要得到一個“攻擊信號”才能完成從不活躍狀態(tài)到活躍狀態(tài)的轉(zhuǎn)換。維生素D就在這個過程中扮演了“司令員”的角色。這次的研究發(fā)現(xiàn),如果沒有維生素D,T細胞就算探測到異物也不會采取行動,依然處于不活躍狀態(tài)。
研究人員說,這一發(fā)現(xiàn)說明,可以通過調(diào)節(jié)體內(nèi)維生素D含量來控制免疫反應(yīng)。比如,免疫功能弱的人可以通過補充維生素D來增強抗病能力;而在進行器官移植等手術(shù)后,則可以通過減少體內(nèi)維生素D含量,來減少排異反應(yīng)。
維生素D存在于魚類、雞蛋等天然食物中,多曬太陽也有助于人體合成維生素D。維生素D通過調(diào)節(jié)體內(nèi)鈣、磷等元素的代謝來維持骨骼、牙齒的正常生長發(fā)育。

Vitamin D controls T cell antigen receptor signaling and activation of human T cells

Phospholipase C (PLC) isozymes are key signaling proteins downstream of many extracellular stimuli. Here we show that naive human T cells had very low expression of PLC-γ1 and that this correlated with low T cell antigen receptor (TCR) responsiveness in naive T cells. However, TCR triggering led to an upregulation of ~75-fold in PLC-γ1 expression, which correlated with greater TCR responsiveness. Induction of PLC-γ1 was dependent on vitamin D and expression of the vitamin D receptor (VDR). Naive T cells did not express VDR, but VDR expression was induced by TCR signaling via the alternative mitogen-activated protein kinase p38 pathway. Thus, initial TCR signaling via p38 leads to successive induction of VDR and PLC-γ1, which are required for subsequent classical TCR signaling and T cell activation.
