研究问题

To characterize age-associated changes in lacrimal gland cellular composition, transcriptional states, and intercellular communication and to explore their relationship with lacrimal gland dysfunction and age-related dry eye disease (DED).

方法

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) was performed on extraorbital lacrimal glands from young (12-week-old) and aged (20-month-old) male C57BL/6J mice.

核心结论

A total of 47,537 high-quality cells were analyzed using the Seurat pipeline.;Differential expression, pathway enrichment (gene set enrichment analysis), and cell-cell communication (CellChat) analyses were used to assess aging-associated changes in immune composition and signaling dynamics.;Aging was associated with pronounced immune-cell infiltration accompanied by epithelial and stromal remodeling, with higher observed representation of T cells, B cells, and plasma cells and broad transcriptional alterations across immune populations.;Regulatory T cells (Tregs) increased in frequency but exhibited transcriptional profiles suggestive of reduced suppressive capacity. ‖ 结论:These changes are associated with chronic inflammation and fibrosis and parallel mucosal immune aging observed in other mucosa-associated lymphoid tissues such as the gut and lung.

B 级证据分级:B 级(同行评议临床前研究,主要为动物模型)

本文核心结论来自动物模型或体外细胞学,属临床前证据,不能外推至人体。「延长健康寿命」「改善功能」等表述在小鼠中的意义,与人类临床结局之间仍有距离。
