Intracellular glutathione in stretch-induced cytokine release from alveolar type-2 like cells 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
OBJECTIVE: Ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) is characterized by release of inflammatory cytokines, but the mechanisms are not well understood. We hypothesized that stretch-induced cytokine production is dependent on oxidant release and is regulated by intracellular glutathione (GSH) inhibition of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) and activator protein-1 (AP-1) binding. METHODOLOGY: Type 2-like alveolar epithelial cells (A549) were exposed to cyclic stretch at 15% strain for 4 h at 20 cycles/min with or without N-acetylcysteine (NAC) or glutathione monoethylester (GSH-e) to increase intracellular GSH, or buthionine sulfoximine (BSO), to deplete intracellular GSH. RESULTS: Cyclic stretch initially caused a decline in intracellular GSH and a rise in the levels of isoprostane, a marker of oxidant injury. This was followed by a significant increase in intracellular GSH and a decrease in isoprostane. Stretch-induced IL-8 and IL-6 production were significantly inhibited when intracellular GSH was further increased by NAC or GSH-e (P < 0.0001). Stretch-induced IL-8 and IL-6 production were augmented when intracellular GSH was depleted by BSO (P < 0.0001). NAC blocked stretch-induced NF-kappa B and AP-1 binding and inhibited IL-8 mRNA expression. CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that oxidant release may play a role in lung cell stretch-induced cytokine release, and antioxidants, which increase intracellular GSH, may protect lung cells against stretch-induced injury. 相似文献

We examined the intracellular signaling mechanism for tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha)-induced cardiac hypertrophy in isolated rat neonatal cardiomyocytes. TNF-alpha enhanced the expression of a kappa B-dependent reporter gene construct in a dose-dependent manner, which was transiently transfected in cardiomyocytes. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay demonstrated that TNF-alpha induced nuclear factor- kappa B (NF-kappa B)-specific DNA binding. Cultured cardiomyocytes were infected with a recombinant adenoviral vector expressing a degradation-resistant mutant of I kappa B alpha (AdI kappa B alpha 32/36A). The I kappa B alpha mutant suppressed NF-kappa B activation induced by TNF- alpha. In cardiomyocytes infected with AdI kappa B alpha 32/36A, TNF-alpha-induced hypertrophic responses, including increases in cell size, protein synthesis and atrial natriuretic factor production and enhancement of sarcomeric organization, were remarkably attenuated compared to the cells infected with an adenovirus expressing bacterial beta-galactosidase. Using a reactive oxygen species (ROS)-sensitive fluorescent dye, 2', 7'-dichlorofluorescin, we observed an increase in fluorescent signal in cardiomyocytes over time, upon addition of TNF-alpha. Preincubation of n-acetyl cysteine (NAC), an antioxidant, prior to TNF-alpha treatment, abolished TNF-alpha -induced ROS generation. NAC abolished TNF-alpha-induced NF-kappa B activation and hypertrophic responses. These findings indicated that TNF-alpha-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy is mediated through NF-kappa B activation via the generation of ROS. 相似文献

Several investigators have implicated depletion of glutathione (GSH) and production of reactive oxygen intermediates (ROIs) in the regulation of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). We have shown directly that N-acetylcysteine (NAC) blocks HIV expression in chronic and acute infection models, and HIV replication in normal peripheral blood mononuclear cells. NAC is a cysteine prodrug which maintains intracellular thiol levels during oxidative stress and replenishes depleted GSH. The observed antiviral effect of NAC is due to inhibition of viral stimulation by ROIs, which are produced in response to inflammatory cytokines. We have also shown that HIV-infected individuals have decreased intracellular GSH levels in their circulating T cells. Since GSH is the major protection against the production of ROIs, we hypothesize that the observed decrease is due to a chronic oxidative stress induced by continual exposure to elevated levels of inflammatory cytokines. Together, these results provide a rationale for clinical trials testing the efficacy of GSH-replenishing drugs such as NAC in the treatment of AIDS. NAC is different than many other antiviral drugs in that it inhibits host-mediated stimulation of viral replication arising in normal immune responses, and may thereby extend latency. In addition, it inhibits the action of inflammatory cytokines which may mediate cachexia, thereby raising the possibility that it may alleviate the deleterious wasting that accompanies late stage AIDS. 相似文献

Tuberculosis (TB) is the major opportunistic infection of HIV-1-infected patients in developing countries. Concurrent infection with TB results in immune cells having enhanced susceptibility to HIV-1 infection, which facilitates entry and replication of the virus. Cumulative data from earlier studies indicate that TB provides a milieu of continuous cellular activation and irregularities in cytokine and chemokine circuits that favor viral replication and disease progression. To better understand the interaction of the host with HIV-1 during active tuberculosis, we investigated in vivo expression of the HIV-1 coreceptors, CCR5 and CXCR4, and circulating levels of the inhibitory beta-chemokines, macrophage inflammatory protein-1-alpha (MIP-1alpha), macrophage inflammatory protein-1-beta (MIP-1beta), and regulated upon activation T cell expressed and secreted (RANTES), in HIV-positive individuals with and without active pulmonary tuberculosis. We found a significant decrease from normal in the fraction of CD4+ T cells expressing CCR5 and CXCR4 in individuals infected with HIV. However, CCR5 and CXCR4 expression did not differ significantly between HIV patients with and without tuberculosis. Higher amounts of MIP-1alpha, MIP-1beta, and RANTES were detected in plasma of HIV-1-positive individuals, particularly those with dual infection, although the increase was not found to be statistically significant. 相似文献

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) long terminal repeat (LTR)-regulated gene expression is stimulated independently by the cellular trans-activator NF-kappa B and the viral protein Tat. Noncytotoxic concentrations of the drug pentoxifylline (PTX) inhibited interaction of NF-kappa B with its motif and the stimulation of HIV-1 LTR-driven gene expression in Jurkat cells. Tat protein (from a cotransfected Tat-expression vector) also induced activation of HIV-1 LTR-driven gene expression. This activation was unaffected by PTX when NF-kappa B sites in the HIV-1 LTR were mutated, suggesting that this drug does not directly influence Tat function, which, however, was inhibited by the Tat-inhibitor Ro 24-7429. Transient reporter gene expression regulated by HIV-1 LTR with wild-type NF-kappa B motifs in the presence of Tat protein was 10- to 60-fold higher than in the presence of either of the trans-activators alone, demonstrating superactivation of HIV-1 LTR by the concerted action of both the trans-activators. Treatment of cells with either PTX or Ro 24-7429 inhibited this superactivation of the HIV-1 LTR. The inhibitory effect of these two drugs in combination, at concentrations that alone did not significantly influence viral promoter activity, was far more than additive. A cooperative action of PTX (NF-kappa B inhibitor) and Ro 24-7429 (Tat inhibitor) on HIV-1 LTR-regulated gene expression is suggested. Concentrations of the drugs that induced maximum inhibition of HIV-1 LTR through their cooperative action are far below cytotoxic levels. Thus, the combination of these two inhibitors could be very effective for anti-HIV therapy. 相似文献
