AIM: To investigate the effect of IL-10 on IL-1β-induced prostaglandin E2(PGE2) release and cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2) expression in human mesangial cells and to examine whether IL-10 has effect on the biological function of IL-1β.METHODS: The PGE2 concentration in supernatants of HMC was measured by radioimmunoassay. The COX-2 mRNA and protein were measured by RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. RESULTS: PGE2 and COX-2 were significantly increased after treatment with IL-1β(P<0.01 for both) in cultured human mesangial cells. IL-10 had no effects on basical production of COX-2 and PGE2(P>0.05, respectively), while it inhibited IL-1β-elicited PGE2 production, as well as COX-2 mRNA and protein expression in a concentration-dependent fashion. CONCLUSIONS: These results indicated that IL-10 depressed the IL-1β-induced release of PGE2 and expression of COX-2. These data suggested that IL-10 could exert anti-inflammatory actions at several levels, not only by inhibiting the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines but also by suppressing their biological function. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the anti-inflammatory action of resveratrol (Res) and its correlation with nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway in a mouse model of inflammatory pain.METHODS: BALB/c mice (n=60) were randomly divided into 6 groups:normal control group, inflammatory pain model group, positive control (dexamethasone, 0.5 mg/kg) group and resveratrol (100, 50 and 25 mg/kg) groups (10 mice in each group). In order to observe the anti-inflammatory pain effects of reseratrol on mice, the paw withdrawal mechanical threshold, paw withdrawal thermal latency and cold withdrawal times were detected. In order to analyze the mechanism of analgesic effect of resveratrol, the expression levels of NF-κB, inhibitor of NF-κB (IκB) α, inhibitor of NF-κB kinase (IKK) β, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-1β in the spinal cord tissues (L4~L6) of the mice were determined by RT-PCR and Western blot.RESULTS: The resveratrol at 100 and 50 mg/kg increased the paw withdrawal mechanical threshold, prolonged the paw withdrawal thermal latency, and decreased the cold withdrawal times in the inflammatory pain mice (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The resveratrol at 100 mg/kg down-regulated the mRNA and protein expression levels of NF-κB, IκBα, IKKβ, TNF-α and IL-1β in the spinal cord tissues (L4~L6) of inflammatory pain mice (P<0.05 or P<0.01).CONCLUSION: Resveratrol ameliorates the inflammatory pain of the mice induced by complete Freund's adjuvant. The mechanism is related to the inhibition of NF-κB signaling pathway. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of curcumin (Cur) on the expression of High mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in amyloid-β (Aβ)-induced primary rat microglial cells. METHODS: Microglia were derived from the cerebral cortices of postnatal rat brains. The cells were identified by immunocytochemistry using mouse anti rat Iba-1 monoclonal antibody. A cell model using primary rat microglial cells incubated with Aβ25-35 as an inflammation model of Alzheimer's disease (AD) was set up. The morphological characters of primary rat microglial cells were observed. The concentration of Aβ25-35 and the treatment concentration of curcumin were selected by CCK-8 assay. Cultured primary rat microglial cells were divided into 5 groups:normal cell group, Aβ25-35 group, Cur group, Aβ25-35+Cur group and Aβ25-35+DMSO group. The expression of HMGB1, NF-κB, and receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) was detected by Western blot. The levels of HMGB1, IL-1β, and TNF-α in the culture supernatant were measured by ELISA. RESULTS: The purity of primary microglias determined by Iba-1 immunofluorescence was more than 95%. The protein levels of HMGB1, RAGE and NF-κB were significantly increased after Aβ25-35 stimulation. After treatment with Cur, the protein levels of HMGB1, RAGE and NF-κB were significantly decreased (P<0.05). The levels of HMGB1, IL-1β and TNF-α in the supernatant were significantly increased after Aβ25-35 stimulation. Cur significantly decreased the level of HMGB1, IL-1β and TNF-α in the supernatant. CONCLUSION: Curcumin significantly inhibits neuroinflammation stimulated by Aβ25-35 in primary rat microglial cells. 相似文献

AIM: To observe the effects of TNF-α/nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)/matrix metalloproteinase-2(MMP-2) pathway on the expression of MMP-2 in the mice with viral myocarditis. METHODS: Six-week-old inbred male mice were randomly assigned to control and myocarditis group. The mice in myocarditis group and control group were intraperitoneally inoculated with 0.1 mL 10-5.69 TCID50/mL coxsackievirus B3 and vehicle (PBS), respectively. Ten mice were sacrificed at the 4th and 10th days after injection. The blood and heart specimens were harvested. The serum content of TNF-α was measured by ELISA. The myocardial levels of MMP-2, NF-κB p65 and IκBα were determined by Western blot. RESULTS: Compared with control group, the protein expression of MMP-2 and NF-κB p65 in the myocardium and the serum content of TNF-α were significantly increased in myocarditis group (P<0.05). The protein expression of IκBα was lower in myocarditis group than that in control group (P<0.05).CONCLUSION: TNF-α, NF-κB p65 and MMP-2 were higher in the mice with acute viral myocarditis. The increased expression of them might be involved in the pathogenesis of viral myocarditis. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of high mobility group box-1 protein (HMGB1) on the expression of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) in BV-2 cells stimulated with amyloid β-protein (Aβ)25-35. METHODS: Cultured BV-2 cells in logarithmic growth phase were divided into 4 groups:normal cell group (without any treatment), model group (treated with Aβ25-35 at 40 μmol/L), RNA interference (RNAi) group (conducted with HMGB1-siRNA followed by Aβ25-35 stimulation) and solvent control group (treated with 0.1% DMSO). After treatment with Aβ25-35 for 24 h, the protein levels of HMGB1 and NF-κB in BV-2 cells were determined by Western blot. RESULTS: Aβ25-35 at 40 μmol/L was used to stimulate BV-2 cells. The GFP fluorescence-tagged HMGB1-siRNA (30 nmol/L) was used to transfect BV-2 cells and its transfection efficiency was about 80%~90%. The results of Western blot showed that the protein level of HMGB1 was significantly decreased after the interference of siRNA fragment (P<0.05). The protein levels of HMGB1 and nucleic NF-κB p65 were dramatically increased in BV-2 cells stimulated with Aβ25-35 (P<0.05). After RNA interference with HMGB1, the expression of HMGB1 and nucleic NF-κB p65 were significantly decreased in BV-2 cells stimulated with Aβ25-35 (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: RNA interference with HMGB1 reduces the expression of nucleic NF-κB in BV-2 cells stimulated with Aβ25-35. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect and potential mechanism of microRNA-181a (miR-181a) on cigarette smoke extract (CSE)-induced the productions of pro-inflammatory factors and the expression of collagen IV, fibronectin and α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) in human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs). METHODS: CSE-induced miR-181a expression was detected by RT-qPCR in the HBECs. After tansfected with miR-181a mimic, the releases of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), IL-6 and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) were measured by ELISA, the protein expression of collagen IV, fibronectin and α-SMA was determined by Western blot. The activation of NF-κB/TGF-β1/Smad3 pathway was also evaluated by Western blot. RESULTS: CSE increased the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and TGF-β1 and the expression of collagen IV, fibronectin and α-SMA, and decreased the expression of miR-181a in the HBECs (P<0.05). However, transfected with miR-181a mimic partially prevented the releases of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and TGF-β1, and inhibited the expression of collagen IV, fibronectin and α-SMA (P<0.05). Additionally, the activation of NF-κB/TGF-β1/Smad3 evoked by CSE was attenuated after transfected with miR-181a mimic. CONCLUSION: Up-regulation of miR-181a prevents the releases of CSE-induced pro-inflammatory factors and expression of collagen IV, fibronectin and α-SMA in the HBECs, and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of NF-κB/TGF-β1/Smad3 pathway. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate whether the opening of ATP-sensitive K+(KATP) channels protects H9c2 cardiac cells against high glucose(HG)-induced injury and inflammation by inhibiting the Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4)/nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB) pathway. METHODS: The protein levels of TLR4 and NF-κB p65 were determined by Western blot. The levels of interleukin-1β(IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) were detected by ELISA. The cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay. Mitochondrial membrane potential(MMP) was examined by rhodamine 123(Rh 123) staining followed by photofluorography. The intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species(ROS) were detected by 2', 7'-dichlorfluorescein- diacetate(DCFH-DA) staining followed by photofluorography. The number of apoptotic cells was observed by Hoechst 33258 nuclear staining followed by photofluorography. RESULTS: After the H9c2 cardiac cells were treated with HG(35 mmol/L glucose) for 24 h, the protein levels of TLR4 and phosphorylated NF-κB p65(p-NF-κB p65) were significantly increased. Pretreatment of the cells with 100 μmol/L diazoxide(DZ, a KATP channel opener) for 30 min before exposure to HG considerably blocked the up-regulation of the TLR4 and p-NF-κB protein levels induced by HG. Moreover, co-treatment of the cells with 30 μmol/L TAK-242(an inhibitor of TLR4) obviously inhibited the HG-induced up-regulation of the p-NF-κB p65 protein level. On the other hand, pretreatment of the cells with 100 μmol/L DZ had a clear myocardial protection effect, which attenuated the HG-induced cytotoxicity, inflammatory response, mitochondrial damage, oxidative stress and apoptosis, evidenced by an increase in the cell viability, and decreases in the levels of IL-1β and TNF-α, MMP loss, ROS generation and the number of apoptotic cells. Similarly, co-treatment of H9c2 cardiac cells with 30 μmol/L TAK-242 or 100 μmol/L PDTC(an inhibitor of NF-κB) and HG for 24 h also obviously reduced the above injuries and inflammation induced by HG.CONCLUSION: The opening of KATP channels protects H9c2 cardiac cells against HG-induced injury and inflammation by inhibiting the TLR4/NF-κB pathway. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of linarin (LIN) on the migration and invasion abilities of human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells and its underlying mechanism. METHODS: MCF-7, MDA-MB-231 and MCF-10A cells were cultured in vitro and treated with LIN at 5, 10, 20, 40, 80 and 160 μmol/L for 24 h, and the cell proliferation was measured by CCK-8 assay and colony formation assay. The protein levels of Snail, E-cadherin, matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), IκBα, p-IKKα/β and p-p65 were determined by Western blot. RESULTS: LIN remarkably reduced the viability of MDA-MB-231 cells in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.05), and the IC50 was 55.89 μmol/L for 24 h. LIN decreased the colony formation rate of MDA-MB-231 cells at the concentration of 20 μmol/L (P<0.05). After exposed to LIN at 5 μmol/L and 10 μmol/L for 24 h, the migration and invasion abilities of the MDA-MB-231 cells were significantly reduced (P<0.05), the protein expression levels of E-cadherin and IκBα were up-regulated (P<0.05), the protein expression levels of Snail and MMP-9 were down-regulated (P<0.05), and the phosphorylation levels of IKKα/β and p65 were decreased (P<0.05) in comparison with the control group. Meanwhile, IKK-16 (IKKα/β inhibitor) and PDTC (NF-κB inhibitor) also down-regulated the protein expression levels of Snail and MMP-9 (P<0.05), and up-regulated the protein expression level of E-cadherin (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: LIN down-regulates the protein expression levels of Snail and MMP-9, and up-regulates the protein expression level of E-cadherin most likely through inhibiting IKK/NF-κB signaling pathway, and ultimately lead to decreases in the migration and invasion abilities of MDA-MB-231 cells. 相似文献

AIM: To observe the effect of Yiqi Huayu Huatan decoction (YHHD) on unilaterral ureteral obstruction (UUO)-induced renal interstitial fibrosis in rats, and to investigate the possible mechanism. METHODS: Female SD rats (n=48) were randomly divided into sham group, model group, telmisartan group, and low-, middle-and high-dose YHHD groups, with 8 rats in each group. The UUO model rats was established by ligating left ureter. The rats in sham group and model group were treated with equal volume of normal saline, others were treated with the corresponding drugs daily. After 12 weeks, the rats were sacrificed. The serum samples were collected for determining the concentrations of cystatin C (Cys-C) and uric acid (UA). The morphological changes of the renal tissue were observed by PAS staining. The collagen fiber was observed by Masson staining. The mRNA expression of Krüppel-like factor 15 (KLF15), high-mo-bility group box protein 1 (HMGB1), nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), IκB, monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), fibronectin (FN), collagen type I (Col I) and Col-Ⅳ was detected by real-time PCR. The protein expression of KLF15, HMGB1 and NF-κB was detected by Western blot. The protein expression of MCP-1 was determined by the method of immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: Compared with sham group, the deposition rate of collagen fibers and the concentration of Cys-C in model group were significantly increased (P<0.05), the mRNA and protein expression of KLF15 was significantly down-regulated (P<0.05), while the mRNA expression of HMGB1, NF-κB, IκB, MCP-1, IL-1β, TNF-α, FN, Col I and Col Ⅳ and the protein expression of HMGB1, NF-κB and MCP-1 were significantly up-regulated (P<0.05). Compared with model group, the deposition rates of collagen fibers in middle-and high-dose YHHD groups and telmisartan group were significantly decreased (P<0.05), with down-regulated protein expression of HMGB1 and NF-κB and mRNA expression of IL-1β and TNF-α (P<0.05). The protein expression of KLF15 was significantly up-regulated in high-dose YHHD group and telmisartan group (P<0.05), while the protein expression of MCP-1 and the mRNA expression of FN were significantly down-regulated (P<0.05). The mRNA expression of KLF15 was significantly up-regulated in high-dose YHHD group (P<0.05), while the mRNA expression of MCP-1, Col I and Col IV was significantly down-regulated (P<0.05). The mRNA expression of NF-κB and IκB was significantly down-regulated and the concentration of Cys-C was significantly decreased in each dose of YHHD groups and telmisartan group (P<0.05). No significant difference of UA level among the groups was observed. CONCLUSION: YHHD alleviates renal interstitial fibrosis in a dose-dependent manner, and YHHD at high dose shows the most obvious effect. The mechanism may be associated with the up-regulation of KLF15 and the down-regulation of HMGB1, NF-κB and its downstream inflammation-related factors in the renal tissue. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the role of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and transient receptor potential channel 6 (TRPC6) signaling pathway in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) P65 expression and nuclear translocation in airway epithelial cells (16HBE) for supplementing the mechanism for airway inflammation. METHODS: After stimulating the 16HBE cells with LPS at 1 mg/L for 0, 0.5, 2, 6, 12 and 24 h, the expression of NF-κB P65 at mRNA and protein levels in the 16HBE cells were determined by RT-PCR and Western blot respectively, and the nuclear translocation of NF-κB P65 was detected by immunocytochemical staining method. The effects of TLR4 inhibitor CLI-095 at 5 μmol/L and TRPC6 agonist Hyp9 at 10 μmol/L on LPS (1 mg/L)-induced NF-κB P65 expression and nuclear translocation in the 16HBE cells were determined by RT-PCR, Western blot and immunocytochemical staining. RESULTS: LPS increased the mRNA and protein expression of NF-κB P65 and nuclear translocation in the 16HBE cells(P<0.05). TLR4 inhibitor CLI-095 reduced the mRNA and protein expression of NF-κB P65 and nuclear translocation induced by LPS, while Hyp9 enhanced the mRNA and protein expression of NF-κB P65 and nuclear translocation induced by LPS in the 16HBE cells(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: LPS induces the expression and nuclear translocation of NF-κB P65 in the 16HBE cells via TLR4-TRPC6 signaling pathway. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of burn sera on IκBα degradation, NF-κB activation in peripheral blood monocytes (PBMCs) in order to explore the role of burn sera on activation of monocytes. METHODS: PBMCs isolated from healthy volunteers were stimulated by sera from healthy volunteers and burn patients and by burn sera together with PDTC (pyrrolidine dithioncarbamate). Activation of monocytic NF-κB was tested by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) and the degradation of monocytic IκBα was determined by Western blotting. RESULTS: When compared to that in control group, cytosolic IκBα degradation occurred within 30 min after PBMCs stimulated by burn sera, and peaked at 60 min. But IκBα gradually recovered in the cytoplasm after 2 h of stimulation. Meanwhile, activity of monocytic NF-κB was markedly increased, reached the peak at 30 min to 60 min after stimulation, and gradually decreased after 2 h of stimulation. PDTC (an antioxidants) effectively inhibited the monocytic IκBα degradation and activation of NF-κB induced by burn sera. CONCLUSION: Burn sera might induce the degradation of IκBα, then activate NF-κB, which ultimately lead to the secretion of cytokines from the monocytes. 相似文献

AIM: To observe the inhibitory effect of madecassoside on the LPS-stimulated microglia and to investigate its possible mechanism. METHODS: Microglia cells of neonatal Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were cultured, isolated and purified. Microglia cells were activated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The inhibitory effect of madecassoside on microglia was measured by MTT assay. Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin 1β (IL-1β) were detected by ELISA. Cell cycle and apoptotic rate were evaluated by flow cytometry. The expression of TLR4 was detected by Western blotting. The expression of NF-κB was detected by RT-PCR. RESULTS: LPS induced the proliferation of microglia and release inflammatory cytokines significantly. Compared with LPS group, madecassoside inhibited the proliferation of microglia induced by LPS in a dose dependent manner. The IC50 value of madecassoside was 10.97 nmol/L to microglia after incubation for 48 h. Madecassoside also decreased the levels of TNF-α and IL-6, increased the ratios of microglia at the G2 phase and the apoptotic rate, decreased the expression of TLR4 and NF-κB significantly (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Madecassoside has inhibitory effects on the proliferation of LPS-stimulated microglia, by which the mechanism may be related to inhibition of the expression of TLR4 and NF-κB, change of cell cycle distribution and induction of microglia apoptosis. 相似文献

AIM:To investigate the inhibitory effect of thioredoxin 1 (Trx-1) over-expression on oxidative stress injury in 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+)-induced rat pheochromocytoma PC12 cells by regulating NF-κB signaling pathway.METHODS:The PC12 cells were damaged by treatment with MPP+ at 1, 3 and 5 mmol/L, and the optimal concentration of 3 mmol/L was selected. The cell viability was measured by MTT assay. The oxidative stress indexes lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) content in the cell culture supernatant were detected, and the protein expression of Trx-1 was determined by Western blot. Lentiviral infection with Ad-Trx-1-GFP sequence was used to establish a model of MPP+-treated PC12 cells with Trx-1 over-expression. The effects of Trx-1 over-expression on the cell viability, oxidative stress responses and NF-κB signaling pathway were determined by MTT assay, commercial kits and Western blot. The effects of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), an activator of NF-κB signaling pathway, on the viability and oxidative stress of PC12 cells were observed. The NF-κB signaling pathway inhibitor pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) was used in MPP+-treated PC12 cells with Trx-1 over-expression, and the cell viability and oxidative stress responses were measured. RESULTS:The viability of PC12 cells, SOD activity in the supernatant and protein expression of Trx-1 were decreased, while LDH activity and MDA content in the supernatant were increased significantly by treatment with MPP+ at 1, 3 and 5 mmol/L. The effect of MPP+ at 3 mmol/L and 5 mmol/L was significantly greater than that at 1 mmol/L (P<0.05), and no significant difference between 3 mmol/L and 5 mmol/L was observed (P>0.05). The inhibitory effect of MPP+ on the viability of PC12 cells, and the oxidative stress injury and activation of NF-κB signaling pathway induced by MPP+ were significantly attenuated by over-expression of Trx-1. The inhibitory effect of MPP+ on the viability of PC12 cells and the oxidative stress injury induced by MPP+ were promoted by the activation of NF-κB signaling pathway, while the protective effects of Trx-1 over-expression on the MPP+-treated PC12 cells were enhanced by the inhibition of NF-κB signaling pathway. CONCLUSION:Over-expression of Trx-1 protects MPP+-treated PC12 cells from oxidative stress injury by regulating NF-κB signaling pathway. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the biological function and potential mechanism of leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) in RAW264.7 macrophages during Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. METHODS: The bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG)-infected RAW264.7 cell model was established. Colony-forming unit (CFU) analysis was used to determine the mycobacterial viability. The releases of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6 and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) in the RAW264.7 cells were detected by ELISA. qPCR and Western blot were used to measure the mRNA and protein expression levels, respectively. RESULTS: LRRK2 was robustly enhanced in the RAW264.7 cells in response to BCG infection. Additionally, silencing of LRRK2 suppressed intracellular growth of mycobacteria during BCG challenge. Moreover, silencing of LRRK2 dramatically attenuated the accumulation of inflammatory cytokines IL-1β, IL-6 and IFN-γ induced by BCG infection. More importantly, LRRK2 modulated BCG-induced inflammatory responses by positively regulating the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway. CONCLUSION: LRRK2/NF-κB signaling pathway positively modulates inflammatory responses during BCG infection, which may provide a better understanding of the pathogenesis of tuberculosis and useful information for developing potential therapeutic interventions against the disease. 相似文献

AIM:To investigate the role of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) stable expression in myocardial inflammatory injury induced by ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) in rats. METHODS:Male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:sham operation (sham) group, I/R group, HIF-1α stabilizer dimethyloxalyl glycine (DMOG)+I/R group and HIF-1α inhibitor YC-1+I/R group. The protein expression of myocardial Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) was determined by Western blot. The mRNA levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), IL-6, TLR4 and NF-κB were detected by real-time PCR. The myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity in the myocardial tissues was measured. HE staining was used to observe the infiltration of inflammatory cells. RESULTS:HIF-1α decreased the infiltration of inflammatory cells, the MPO activity, and the mRNA levels of inflammatory factors IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in the myocardial tissues. HIF-1α also reduced the expression of TLR4 and NF-κB at mRNA and protein levels (P<0.05). CONCLUSION:The stable expression of HIF-1α has an anti-inflammatory effect on the myocardial tissues after I/R injury in rats. The mechanism may be related to the inhibition of TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway. 相似文献
