ABSTRACT

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of the IL-6/STAT3 signaling pathway on intestinal epithelial barrier injury in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). Fifty-two patients with UC and 21 healthy subjects were recruited. The expression level of IL-6 in plasma was determined by ELISA. Normal human colon mucosal epithelial NCM460 cells were treated with IL-6 or plasma from the patients with UC. Then, the transepithelial electrical resistance value, fluorescein yellow permeability and zonulin release were evaluated. Using reverse transcription-quantitative (q)PCR and western blotting, claudin (CLDN) 1 and CLDN2 expression levels were analyzed. Furthermore, western blotting was used to detect phosphorylation of STAT3. Chromatin immunoprecipitation-qPCR was performed to investigate the enrichment of H3K27ac in the promoter region s of CLDN1 and CLDN2. The present study revealed that IL-6 content was elevated in the plasma from patients with UC and increased with the progression of the disease. IL-6 was also observed to induce intestinal epithelial cell barrier injury and regulate barrier function by influencing the expression of tight junction-related proteins, as well as STAT3. The IL-6/STAT3 signaling pathway regulated transcription of CLDN1 and CLDN2 by affecting the enrichment of histone H3K27ac in their promoter regions. Thus, the significantly increased expression level of IL-6 in the peripheral blood of patients with UC indicates a positive association with the development of UC. Furthermore, the IL-6/STAT3 signaling pathway influences the function of the intestinal barrier by affecting the H3K27ac level in intestinal epithelial cells.
