Background: Tight junction proteins play crucial role in maintaining the intestinal mucosal barrier. Although previous studies had shown that the Notch signal is closely related to tight junction proteins, the mechanism by which it does so remains unknown. The goal of the present study was to investigate whether vitamin C combined with vitamin D3 affects intestinal mucosal barrier stability through Notch signal pathway.Results: To assess the effect of vitamin C combined with vitamin D3 on the intestinal mucosal barrier, electron microscopic observation of ultrastructure of tight junctions was done. And tight junction proteins gene and Notch signal gene expression were analyzed by quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction, expression of tight junction protein in SW480 cells interfered with by LPS were examined by western blot. We found that vitamin C combined with vitamin D3 had protective effect on DSS-induced ulcerative colitis in guinea pig intestinal mucosa. Electron microscopy results showed that both low dose and high dose of vitamin C combined with vitamin D3 could maintain DSS-induced ulcerative colitis in guinea pig intestinal epithelium tight junction, however, the combination of medium dose vitamin C and vitamin D3 did not have this effect; Compared with the control group, the expression level of ZO-1 mRNA in the colon tissue of high-dose vitamin C group was significantly increased. In SW480 cell experiments, compared with the control group, the cell migration and repair ability of different concentrations of vitamin C combined with vitamin D3 group were significantly improved, the protein expression of Notch-1 was increased, but the protein expression of claudin-2 was significantly decreased. Conclusions: our results of this experiment showed that the appropriate amount of vitamin C combined with vitamin D3 might regulate the expression of claudin-2 by regulating Notch-1, slow the intestinal mucosal barrier destruction, and promote the damage repair of cell mucosal barrier.
