Synergistic Effect of Histamine and TNF-α on Monocyte Adhesion to Vascular Endothelial Cells

The histamine level is high during allergic attacks, and patients with allergy may have chronic inflammatory conditions at which tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α is extensively released by macrophages. Here, in vitro static and microfluidic flow assays were conducted to investigate the combined influence of histamine and TNF-α on adhesion of monocytic THP-1 cells to human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). In a static assay, histamine stimulation of TNF-α-activated HUVEC elevated the number of attached THP-1 cells. In a flow assay, the number of crawling and firmly adherent THP-1 cells was higher on TNF-α + histamine activated HUVEC than on HUVEC activated by TNF-α alone. This synergistic effect of histamine and TNF-α is caused by the increased endothelial surface expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, and E-selectin. Since the exposure of TNF-α-activated endothelium to histamine favors monocyte recruitment, it may be a serious risk factor for atherosclerosis and other inflammatory disorders.     

Synergistic Effects of Electroacupuncture and Mesenchymal Stem Cells on Intestinal Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury in Rats

Electroacupuncture (EA) and transplantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are both promising therapeutic applications for intestinal disorders. The current study examined their combined effect on rat intestinal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and the possible mechanism. Five groups were performed: con group (shame operation),I/R group (model group), MSC group (I/R?+?MSC), EA group (I/R?+?EA), and combined group (I/R?+?MSC?+?EA). Intestinal histological damage, crypt cell proliferation degree, mucosal cytokines expression, and levels of inflammation factors were studied for each group. Compared with the I/R group, crypt cell proliferation index and mucosal mRNA concentration of SDF-1, CXCR4, EGF, EGFR in MSC group and EA group were significantly increased, with mucosal NF-кBp65 and serum inflammation factor (TNF-α, IL-6) levels significantly decreased. Above all of these indicators except NF-кBp65 were improved more notably in combined group than the other two treatment groups. Chiu’s score was only ameliorated remarkably in the combined group. The combined treatment of MSC transplantion and electroacupuncture could protect intestinal mucosal barrier from I/R injury.

目的:研究克拉屈滨对人脐静脉内皮细胞EA.hy926生长及分泌活性的影响,探讨克拉屈滨通过抑制内皮细胞活力发挥抗肿瘤的作用机制。方法:采用CCK-8法检测不同浓度(0.4~1μmol/L)克拉屈滨对内皮细胞活力的影响;用流式细胞术检测细胞周期和细胞凋亡率;Western blot检测细胞凋亡和周期相关蛋白的表达水平;用ELISA法检测上清液肿瘤坏死因子α(tumor necrosis factor-α,TNF-α)、转化生长因子β1(transforming growth factor-β1,TGF-β1)和血管内皮生长因子(vascular endothelial growth factor,VEGF)的水平;Gries法检测上清液一氧化氮(nitric oxide,NO)含量。结果:克拉屈滨作用48 h对细胞活力有明显的抑制作用,其半数抑制浓度约为3.644μmol/L,随药物浓度升高和作用时间的延长而抑制作用增强。克拉屈滨作用48 h后,细胞周期被明显阻滞在S期,0.4μmol/L时S期细胞约43.74%,1μmol/L时S期细胞约77.23%。克拉屈滨处理后,各组内皮细胞的凋亡率没有显著差异。克拉屈滨处理后,caspase-3与Bax蛋白水平无明显差异;p21水平随着药物浓度增加而增高,而p53水平随着药物浓度增加而降低(P0.05)。克拉屈滨处理后,上清液中TGF-β1和TNF-α水平升高,VEGF含量减少(P0.05)。克拉屈滨处理后,上清液中NO含量减少(P0.05)。结论:克拉屈滨能明显抑制内皮细胞EA.hy926的活力,其主要机制与细胞周期阻滞有关。同时克拉屈滨能促进内皮细胞EA.hy926分泌TNF-α和TGF-β1,抑制其分泌VEGF和NO。     

Chlamydia pneumoniae multiplies in human endothelial cells in vitro

The ability of three C. pneumoniae isolates, Kajaani 6, Helsinki 12 and TW-183, to grow in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and in an immortalized endothelial cell line EA.hy 926 was studied. All C. pneumoniae isolates were capable of multiplying in endothelial cells. EA.hy 926 cells could support the growth of C. pneumoniae better than HUVEC, yet less efficiently than HL and HEp-2 cells that are conventionally used in C. pneumoniae culturing. Although centrifugation of the inoculum greatly increased the inclusion yields, it was not necessary for infectivity. In addition, a persistent infection of C. pneumoniae in EA.hy 926 and HL cells ensued and it was followed up for two months. The fact that endothelial cells can serve as hosts to C. pneumoniae might be a significant contributing factor in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, a disease which recent studies show to be associated with chronic C. pneumoniae infection.     

Treatment with granulocyte colony stimulating factor is associated with improvement in endothelial function

Primary objective: Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) is used for the mobilization of bone marrow and endothelial progenitor cells, though G-CSF-induced inflammation may cause endothelial dysfunction. We examined the effects of G-CSF on endothelium, C-reactive protein (CRP), tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and anti-inflammatory cytokines namely interleukin 10 (IL-10).

Research design: We studied 60 women with breast cancer, who were randomized to either subcutaneous G-CSF (5 μg/kg), o.d. for 5 days after adjuvant chemotherapy (n = 40) or placebo (n = 20).

Experimental interventions: We measured flow-mediated dilatation (FMD%) of the brachial artery by ultrasonography, CRP, TNF-α, IL-10 and the ratio TNF-α/ IL-10 blood levels before, 2-h and 5-days after the G-CSF or placebo treatment.

Main outcomes and results: There was a greater increase of FMD, IL-10 and reduction of TNF-α/ IL-10, 2 h and 5 days after the G-CSF treatment compared to placebo. Although, CRP and TNF-α were higher, TNF-α/IL-10 was lower at the end of G-CSF treatment compared to placebo. Improvement of FMD was related to changes of IL-10 and TNF-α/IL-10.

Conclusions: Treatment with G-CSF improves endothelial function in vivo, possibly by shifting the balance between the pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines.     

Cytolethal distending toxin from Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli O157 causes irreversible G2/M arrest, inhibition of proliferation, and death of human endothelial cells

Recently, cytolethal distending toxin V (CDT-V), a new member of the CDT family, was identified in Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) O157 and particular non-O157 serotypes. Here we investigated the biological effects of CDT-V from STEC O157:H(-) (strain 493/89) on human endothelial cells, which are believed to be major pathogenetic targets in severe STEC-mediated diseases. CDT-V caused dose-dependent G(2)/M cell cycle arrest leading to distension, inhibition of proliferation, and death in primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and two endothelial cell lines, EA.hy 926 cells (HUVEC derived) and human brain microvascular endothelial cells (HBMEC). The cell cycle effects of CDT-V were cell type specific. In HUVEC and EA.hy 926 cells, CDT-V caused a slowly developing but persistent G(2)/M block which resulted in delayed nonapoptotic cell death. In contrast, in HBMEC, CDT-V induced a rapidly evolving but transient G(2)/M block which was followed by progressive, mostly apoptotic cell death. In both HBMEC and EA.hy 926 cells, G(2)/M arrest was preceded by the early accumulation of a phosphorylated inactive form of cdc2 kinase. Significant G(2)/M arrest and inhibition of proliferation in both HUVEC and each of the endothelial cell lines were induced by 2 to 15 min of exposure to CDT-V, indicating that the effects of the toxin are irreversible. CDT-V-treated HBMEC and EA.hy 926 cells displayed fragmented nuclei and expressed phosphorylated histone protein H2AX, indicative of DNA damage followed by a DNA repair response. Our data demonstrate that CDT-V causes irreversible damage to human endothelial cells and thus may contribute to the pathogenesis of STEC-mediated diseases.

Regulation of endothelial adhesion molecules by ligands binding to the scavenger receptor.

Monocyte adherence to the endothelium, their penetration to the subendothelial space and excessive lipid accumulation (foam cell formation) are the initial events in atherogenesis. Scavenger receptors have been reported to play an important role in foam cell formation, since modified low density lipoproteins can be taken up via scavenger receptors in a non-down-regulated fashion. In this study we demonstrate that stimulation of scavenger receptors in endothelial cells induces the expression of endothelial adhesion molecules. Polyinosinic acid (poly I), a known scavenger receptor ligand, significantly induced the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and E-selectin on human umbilical vein endothelial cells when compared with polycytidylic acid (poly C), a structurally related compound to poly I, which does not bind to the scavenger receptor. The effect of scavenger receptor ligands on the endothelial cell line EA hy. 926 was also tested. Poly I up-regulated ICAM-1 expression also on EA hy. 926 cells, while it had no effect on IL-1 beta or tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) production on the same cell line. Poly I-induced ICAM-1 expression on EA hy. 926 cells could be inhibited by H7, a protein kinase C inhibitor, while HA 1004, a preferential protein kinase A inhibitor, had no effect on ICAM-1 expression. The role of protein kinase C in scavenger receptor-mediated adhesion molecule upregulation was confirmed by the ability of poly I to directly activate protein kinase C, when measured with 3H-phorbol dibutyrate binding to EA hy. 926 cells, while poly C again was ineffective.

Candida albicans expresses a focal adhesion kinase-like protein that undergoes increased tyrosine phosphorylation upon yeast cell adhesion to vitronectin and the EA.hy 926 human endothelial cell line

The signaling pathways triggered by adherence of Candida albicans to the host cells or extracellular matrix are poorly understood. We provide here evidence in C. albicans yeasts of a p105 focal adhesion kinase (Fak)-like protein (that we termed CaFak), antigenically related to the vertebrate p125Fak, and its involvement in integrin-like-mediated fungus adhesion to vitronectin (VN) and EA.hy 926 human endothelial cell line. Biochemical analysis with different anti-chicken Fak antibodies identified CaFak as a 105-kDa protein and immunofluorescence and cytofluorimetric analysis on permeabilized cells specifically stain C. albicans yeasts; moreover, confocal microscopy evidences CaFak as a cytosolic protein that colocalizes on the membrane with the integrin-like VN receptors upon yeast adhesion to VN. The protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) inhibitors genistein and herbimycin A strongly inhibited C. albicans yeast adhesion to VN and EA.hy 926 endothelial cells. Moreover, engagement of alpha v beta 3 and alpha v beta 5 integrin-like on C. albicans either by specific monoclonal antibodies or upon adhesion to VN or EA.hy 926 endothelial cells stimulates CaFak tyrosine phosphorylation that is blocked by PTK inhibitor. A role for CaFak in C. albicans yeast adhesion was also supported by the failure of VN to stimulate its tyrosine phosphorylation in a C. albicans mutant showing normal levels of CaFak and VNR-like integrins but displaying reduced adhesiveness to VN and EA.hy 926 endothelial cells. Our results suggest that C. albicans Fak-like protein is involved in the control of yeast cell adhesion to VN and endothelial cells.     

Tropomyosin-1 protects endothelial cell–cell junctions against cigarette smoke extract through F-actin stabilization in EA.hy926 cell line

The aim of the study was to estimate the effect of cigarette smoke extract (CSE) on EA.hy926 endothelial cells in culture in the context of maintenance of cell–cell junctions through the structural stabilization of the actin cytoskeleton. In the present study, F-actin was stabilized by the overexpression of tropomyosin-1, which is known to stabilize actin filaments in muscle and non-muscle cells. Our study showed that the stabilization of F-actin significantly increased the survival of cells treated with 25% CSE. In addition, after stabilization of F-actin the migratory potential of EA.hy926 cells subjected to CSE treatment was increased. Our results also showed increased fluorescence intensity of alpha- and beta-catenin after CSE treatment in cells which had stabilized F-actin. Analysis of fluorescence intensity of Zonula occludens-1 did not reveal any significant differences when EA.hy926 cells overexpressing tropomyosin-1 were compared with those lacking overexpression. It would appear that overexpression of tropomyosin-1 preserved the structure of actin filaments in the cells treated with CSE. In conclusion, the present study demonstrates that stabilization of F-actin protects EA.hy926 cells against CSE-induced loss of both adherens and tight junctions. The data presented in this study suggest that overexpression of tropomyosin-1 stabilizes the organizational structure of actin filaments and helps preserve the endothelial barrier function under conditions of strong oxidative stress.

Detection of Fcγ receptors on human endothelial cells stimulated with cytokines tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interferon-gamma (IFN-γ)

This investigation was conducted to detect Fcγ receptors (FcγR) on cytokine-stimulated human endothelial cells (EC) by measuring anti-FcγR MoAb binding with an ELISA. TNF-α and IFN-γ significantly increased the expression of FcγR type II (FcγRII) and type III (FcγRIII) on aortic EC. Simultaneous treatment with both cytokines had a synergistic effect and pretreatment of EC with IFN-γ augmented the effect of TNF-α. The greatest effect was the increase (up to four-to-six-fold) in expression of FcγRII found by the simultaneous treatment of aortic EC with both cytokines. The receptors were expressed on the cell surface and showed receptor capping after incubation at 37°C. This study showed that the inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IFN-γ enhanced low-affinity FcγR expression on human EC in vitro. The expression of FcγR may contribute to the specific localization of circulating immune complexes on blood vessels in areas of vasculitis.
