摘 要:Steroid receptor coactivator 3(SRC-3) is a multifunctional protein that plays an important role in regulation of bacterial lipopolysaccharide-induced ***,its involvement in host defense against bacterial infection remains *** we used SRC-3 knockout mice to assess the role of SRC-3 in antibacterial defense in ***-induced septic *** *** bacteria were injected intraperitoneally,SRC-3 deficient mice exhibited excessive local and systemic inflammatory responses and more severe bacterial burdens,leading to a significantly higher mortality compared with wild-type mice. Peritoneal macrophages of SRC-3 deficient mice showed a decrease in bacterial phagocytosis in culture and an increase in apoptosis,which was consistent with the defective bacterial clearance observed in SRC-3-deficient ***,SRC-3 null macrophages expressed much lower levels of the scavenger receptor A,the antioxidant enzyme catalase,and anti-apoptotic gene ***,our data demonstrate that SRC-3 is important in not only modulating the local and systemic inflammation but also intensifying bacterial clearance,which highlights a pivotal role of SRC-3 in the host defense system against bacterial infection.
