Resveratrol, a natural product present in wine, has recently been shown to inhibit the growth of a number of cancer cell lines in vitro. In the current study, we have demonstrated that resveratrol inhibits the growth of THP-1 human monocytic leukaemia cells in a dose-dependent manner with a median effective dose of 12 microM. It did not induce differentiation of THP-1 cells and had no toxic effect on THP-1 cells that had been induced to differentiate into monocytes/macrophages by phorbol myristate acetate. A significant fraction of resveratrol-treated cells underwent apoptosis as judged by flow cytometric analysis of DNA content, DNA fragmentation and caspase-specific cleavage of poly(ADP-ribosyl) polymerase. Resveratrol treatment had no effect on the expression of Fas receptor or Fas ligand (FasL) in THP-1 cells, nor did it induce clustering of Fas receptors. In addition, THP-1 cells were resistant to activating anti-Fas antibody, and neutralizing anti-Fas and/or anti-FasL antibodies had no protective effect against resveratrol-induced inhibition of THP-1 cell growth. The effect of resveratrol on THP-1 cells was reversible after its removal from the culture medium. These results suggest that (1) resveratrol inhibits the growth of THP-1 cells, at least in part, by inducing apoptosis, (2) resveratrol-induced apoptosis of THP-1 cells is independent of the Fas/FasL signalling pathway and (3) resveratrol does not induce differentation of THP-1 cells and has no toxic effect on differentiated THP-1 cells. Thus, resveratrol may be a potential chemotherapeutic agent for the control of acute monocytic leukaemia. 相似文献

Amphotericin B is known to elicit immunomodulatory effects on neutrophil, monocyte, and lymphocyte function. It also has been shown to induce the release of proinflammatory cytokines from human monocytes and macrophages. Release of these cytokines has been associated with the infusion-related toxicity observed after administration of this drug. The present study demonstrates that amphotericin B increases mRNA for the chemokines interleukin (IL)-8, monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1, and macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1beta, as well as the cell adhesion molecules intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 and CD44 in the human monocytic cell line THP-1. Amphotericin B increased the concentrations of IL-8, MCP-1, and MIP-1beta in a dose-dependent fashion. Amphotericin B also induced expression of ICAM-1 but not CD44 in these cells. Production of these proteins in response to amphotericin B may play a role in the immunomodulatory activity and toxicity of this antifungal agent. 相似文献

The human monocytic cell line THP-1 differentiates along the macrophage line after phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) supplementation and can be stimulated to secrete tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) by interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) addition. We found that, in the early stage of differentiation (1-48 h), PMA induction elicited an upregulation of intracellular H ferritin and H ferritin binding sites and a downregulation of transferrin receptor. In addition, we found that iron administration to PMA-differentiating cells induced the expression of TNF-alpha mRNA and TNF-alpha secretion to levels even higher than those induced by IFN-gamma alone. The iron chelator desferrioxamine showed the opposite effect and reduced TNF-alpha release. In contrast, preincubation of the cells with iron before PMA induction resulted in a decrease of the TNF-alpha secretion induced by IFN-gamma, whereas the opposite was true after preincubation with desferrioxamine. The data support a co-ordinate interaction between iron and TNF-alpha in monocyte macrophages, with an iron-mediated upregulation of TNF-alpha in the early phase of differentiation and an iron-mediated inhibition at later stages. This complex relationship has to be considered in evaluating the effects of iron on inflammation. 相似文献

Generation of globular fragment of adiponectin by leukocyte elastase secreted by monocytic cell line THP-1 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Previous studies revealed that carboxyl-terminal fragment containing the globular domain of adiponectin exists in human plasma. Although it is proposed that the globular fragment is generated by proteolytic cleavage, the place and responsible enzyme of the cleavage are still unclear. In this study, we evaluated the activity to cleave adiponectin in culture medium of several cell lines in vitro. Adiponectin cleavage into several carboxyl-terminal fragments containing the globular domain was observed in the medium of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate-stimulated monocytic cell lines THP-1 and U937. The molecular masses of the major products were 25, 20, and 18 kDa. The cleavage was thought to be mediated by leukocyte elastase (also known as neutrophil elastase) based on the following observations. First, the cleavage was inhibited by serine-protease inhibitors [phenylmethylsulfonylfluoride, Pefabloc SC (Roche Diagnostics, Basel, Switzerland) and aprotinin] and by the leukocyte elastase-specific peptide inhibitor MeOSuc-AAPV-CMK. Second, no activity was detected after THP-1 cells had fully differentiated into macrophages. Third, purified leukocyte elastase cleaved adiponectin with the same cleavage pattern as THP-1 cells. Finally, leukocyte elastase secreted by activated neutrophils cleaved adiponectin into the globular fragments. Amino-terminal sequence analysis revealed that cleavage sites of adiponectin by purified leukocyte elastase were between 38Thr and 39Cys, 40Ala and 41Gly, 44Ala and 45Gly, 91Ala and 92Glu, and 110Ala and 111Ala (the numbering of the positions of the amino acids starts at the signal sequence), suggesting that the cleavage occurs in the collagenous domain. These data indicate that the cleavage of adiponectin by leukocyte elastase secreted from activated monocytes and/or neutrophils could be a candidate for the mechanism of the generation of the globular fragment of adiponectin. 相似文献

Standard anti-leishmanial drugs were tested for their ability to inhibit the growth of intracellular amastigotes of Leishmania aethiopica, L. donovani and L. infantum in the human leukemia monocyte THP-1 cell line. Sodium stibogluconate and meglumine antimoniate were active against L. donovani with ED50 values of 8.9 micrograms SbV/ml and 2.9 micrograms SbV/ml, respectively. L. aethiopica was less sensitive to sodium stibogluconate with an ED50 value of 25.3 micrograms SbV/ml while pentamidine had an ED50 value of 0.6 microM. Both L. donovani (ED50, 9.3 microM), and L. aethiopica (ED50, 6.4 microM), were sensitive to aminosidine sulphate. An L. infantum isolate, clinically resistant to meglumine antimoniate treatment, had an ED50 of 22.2 micrograms SbV/ml. The toxic level of drugs on host cells was determined by colorimetric Methyl Tetrazolium (MTT) assay prior to activity tests. The results obtained with the THP-1 in vitro drug screening model were similar to those obtained in the mouse peritoneal macrophage model. 相似文献

Mutations in the cold-induced autoinflammatory syndrome 1 (CIAS1) gene are associated with a spectrum of autoinflammatory diseases, including familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome, Muckle-Wells syndrome, and chronic infantile neurologic, cutaneous, articular syndrome, also known as neonatal-onset multisystem inflammatory disease. CIAS1 encodes cryopyrin, a protein that localizes to the cytosol and functions as pattern recognition receptor. Cryopyrin also participates in nuclear factor-kappaB regulation and caspase-1-mediated maturation of interleukin 10. In this study, we showed that disease-associated mutations in CIAS1 induced rapid cell death of THP-1 monocytic cells. The features of cell death, including 7-AAD staining, the presence of cellular edema, and early membrane damage resulting in lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release, indicated that it was more likely to be necrosis than apoptosis, and was effectively blocked with the cathepsin B-specific inhibitor CA-074-Me. CA-074-Me also suppressed induced by disease-associated mutation lysosomal leakage and mitochondrial damage. In addition, R837, a recently identified activator of cryopyrin-associated inflammasomes, induced cell death in wild type CIAS1-transfected THP-1 cells. These results indicated that monocytes undergo rapid cell death in a cathepsin B-dependent manner upon activation of cryopyrin, which is also a specific phenomenon induced by disease-associated mutation of CIAS1. 相似文献

Diabetic subjects are susceptible to atherosclerosis. It has been postulated that inflammation plays a crucial role in atherogenesis. Since previous studies suggested persistent low-grade infection by Gram-negative bacteria such as Chlamydia spp. and/or periodontal infection is associated with increased atherogenesis among diabetic subjects, we hypothesized that macrophages under hyperglycemia respond to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge in a more exaggerated manner than under normal glucose conditions. Therefore, we examined cytokine productivity and associated signal transduction molecules in LPS-stimulated the monocytic cell line THP-1, under conditions of hyperglycemia. Differentiated THP-1 cells were cultured under normal and high glucose conditions without fetal bovine serum, and were stimulated with Escherichia coli LPS in the presence of LPS binding protein. Following stimulation, activated signal transduction molecules were detected by protein microarray and confirmed thereafter. Results indicated that c-jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) was highly-phosphorylated at high glucose concentrations, and this was confirmed by Western-immunoblotting. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha and monocyte chemo-attractant protein-1 production were significantly enhanced under these conditions. SP600125, a selective inhibitor of JNK, dose-dependently suppressed the production of these cytokine. Therefore, we suggest that this may be one of the mechanisms by which sub-clinical infection by Gram-negative bacteria promotes atherosclerosis in diabetic subjects. 相似文献

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Hepatitis B virus suppresses the human immune-system and HBsAg inhibits the induction of cytokines by LPS in human macrophages, but the mechanisms involved remain unclear. COX-2 and its product, PGE2, play a role in hepatitis B and IL-18 has also been shown to inhibit HBV infection in vivo. We investigated whether rHBsAg affects induction of COX-2 and IL-18 by LPS and, if so, which signal pathways are involved in a human monocytic cell line, THP-1. METHODS: Cell culture, Western blotting for COX-2, ERK and IKB-alpha, immunofluorescence for HBsAg and NFkappaB protein and ELISA for PGE2, IL-18 and IL-12 were performed. RESULTS: rHBsAg inhibits LPS-induced COX-2 expression in a time- and dose-dependent manner by blocking the ERK and NFkappaB pathways. LPS-induced IL-18 production was also down-regulated by rHBsAg by interfering mainly with the NFkappaB pathway. PGE2 reversed the inhibition of LPS-induced IL-18 production by rHBsAg. rHBsAg was also found to inhibit the induction of IL-12 by LPS in THP-1 cells. CONCLUSIONS: These results showed a novel anti-inflammatory property of rHBsAg which involves inhibition of COX-2 and suggested that hepatitis B virus may regulate IFN-gamma production by inhibiting IL-18 and IL-12 production. 相似文献

We have recently established ME-1, a human myelomonocytic leukaemia cell line derived from acute myelomonocytic leukaemia with eosinophilia (M4E0). When ME-1 cells were cultured in serum-free medium, they stopped proliferating and began to differentiate morphologically, functionally and phenotypically to mature granulocyte-like cells. The protein kinase inhibitor, 1-(5-isoquinolinyl-sulphonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7) enhanced this differentiation dose-dependently. Upon addition of fetal calf serum (FCS) to the serum-free medium, the differentiation of ME-1 cells into granulocyte-like cells was inhibited and they resumed cell growth. We have recently reported that the differentiation of ME-1 cells into macrophage-like cells induced by IL-3 and GM-CSF involved the activation of protein kinase C. The present results indicate that ME-1 is a bipotential cell line that can differentiate into granulocyte-like cells or macrophage-like cells, and that protein kinase C is closely related to each form of differentiation. 相似文献

Thrombomodulin has a central role in the regulation of coagulation through its abilities to promote generation of the potent anticoagulant activated protein C. Because little is known about monocyte thrombomodulin expression and its regulatory mechanism by lipopolysaccharide, we investigated the effect of lipopolysaccharide on monocyte's thrombomodulin expression. Lipopolysaccharide reduced the surface thrombomodulin expression of human peripheral blood monocytes in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner, regardless of the addition of serum. The surface thrombomodulin activity was comparably decreased in monocytes incubated with lipopolysaccharide. Blocking nuclear factor-kappaB by MG132 or aurine tricarboxylic acid effectively inhibited the lipopolysaccharide-induced surface thrombomodulin down-regulation of monocytes. Lipopolysaccharide inactivation by polymyxin B in the supernatants from the lipopolysaccharide-stimulated cultures still reduced the surface thrombomodulin expression of monocytes, suggesting a role for soluble mediators in the down-regulation of thrombomodulin. The lipopolysaccharide-induced thrombomodulin surface expression and the mRNA levels of the monocytic leukemic cell line (THP-1) were decreased in serum-depleted culture, while they were increased in medium containing 10% serum. We conclude that lipopolysaccharide down-regulates the thrombomodulin expression of monocytes and that nuclear factor-kappaB is a critical mediator of the repression of thrombomodulin by lipopolysaccharide. Regulation of the THP-1 thrombomodulin expression by lipopolysaccharide depends on the presence of serum. 相似文献

Human craniofacial data were used to assess the similarities and differences between recent and prehistoric Old World samples, and between these samples and a similar representation of samples from the New World. The data were analyzed by the neighbor-joining clustering procedure, assisted by bootstrapping and by canonical discriminant analysis score plots. The first entrants to the Western Hemisphere of maybe 15,000 years ago gave rise to the continuing native inhabitants south of the U.S.-Canadian border. These show no close association with any known mainland Asian population. Instead they show ties to the Ainu of Hokkaido and their Jomon predecessors in prehistoric Japan and to the Polynesians of remote Oceania. All of these also have ties to the Pleistocene and recent inhabitants of Europe and may represent an extension from a Late Pleistocene continuum of people across the northern fringe of the Old World. With roots in both the northwest and the northeast, these people can be described as Eurasian. The route of entry to the New World was at the northwestern edge. In contrast, the Inuit (Eskimo), the Aleut, and the Na-Dene speakers who had penetrated as far as the American Southwest within the last 1,000 years show more similarities to the mainland populations of East Asia. Although both the earlier and later arrivals in the New World show a mixture of traits characteristic of the northern edge of Old World occupation and the Chinese core of mainland Asia, the proportion of the latter is greater for the more recent entrants. 相似文献
