BACKGROUND: Eosinophils cluster along airway nerves in patients with asthma and release eosinophil major basic protein, an antagonist of inhibitory M2 muscarinic receptors on nerves. Blocking M2 function increases bronchoconstriction, leading to airway hyperreactivity. Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) mediates eosinophil adhesion to nerves. OBJECTIVE: We investigated mechanisms of ICAM-1 expression by parasympathetic nerves. METHODS: ICAM-1 expression was examined by immunocytochemistry of lung sections from ovalbumin-sensitized and challenged guinea pigs. ICAM-1 was measured in parasympathetic nerves isolated from subjects and guinea pigs and in human neuroblastoma cells by real-time RT-PCR, immunocytochemistry, and Western blot. RESULTS: ICAM-1 was not detected in control airway parasympatheric nerves in vivo or in cultured cells. ICAM-1 was expressed throughout antigen-challenged guinea pig lung tissue and was selectively decreased by dexamethasone only in nerves. ICAM-1 was induced in human and guinea pig parasympathetic nerves by TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma and was inhibited by dexamethasone and by an inhibitor of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB). In neuroblastoma cell lines TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma-induced ICAM-1 was blocked by an inhibitor of NF-kappaB but not by inhibitors of mitogen-activated protein kinases. Dexamethasone did not inhibit ICAM-1 expression in neuroblastoma cells. CONCLUSIONS: ICAM-1 induced in nerves by antigen challenge and proinflammatory cytokines is sensitive to dexamethasone. ICAM-1 expression is also sensitive to inhibitors of NF-kappaB. Neuroblastoma cells mimic many, but not all, characteristics of ICAM-1 expression in parasympathetic nerves. CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Dexamethasone and NF-kappaB inhibitors could prevent eosinophils from adhering to nerves by blocking ICAM-1 expression on parasympathetic nerves, thus protecting inhibitory M2 muscarinic receptors and making this pathway a potential target for asthma treatment. 相似文献

MAP kinases and NF-kappaB collaborate to induce ICAM-1 gene expression in the early phase of adenovirus infection 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Replication-defective adenoviruses (Ad) utilized as vectors for gene transfer are known to induce an inflammatory and immune response upon exposure to respiratory cells in vitro and in vivo. Among the different mediators of inflammation, we recently demonstrated that a replication-defective Ad serotype 5, deleted in the early genes E1 and E3 (Ad.CFTR), induces the proinflammatory intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) in A549 respiratory cells in vitro and in lung portions of nonhuman primates in vivo, Gene Ther. 5, 131-136). More recently, we described the involvement of the nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) in the induction of ICAM-1 upon 24 h of exposure of the same Ad5-derived vector, Gene Ther. 8, 1436-1442). Here we investigated whether the early phase of virus-cell interaction is sufficient to stimulate ICAM-1 upregulation. A549 cells were exposed to wild-type Ad5 (Ad5), to Ad.CFTR, and to Ad5 inactivated by incubation at 56 degrees C (Ad5/56 degrees C). Ad5, Ad.CFTR, and Ad5/56 degrees C activated NF-kappaB and increased ICAM-1 mRNA levels within 4 h after exposure. The role of the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) on the ICAM-1 mRNA induction was studied. ICAM-1 mRNA upregulation was inhibited upon incubation with several chemicals, namely, the ERK1/2 inhibitors PD98059 and AG1288 (by 98 and 67%, respectively), of the p38/MAPK pathway SB203580 (by 50%), of the JNK pathway dimethylaminopurine (by 83%), and of the NF-kappaB parthenolide (by 96%). Ad5 and Ad5/56 degrees C stimulated ERK1/2, p38/MAPK, and JNK1 starting 10 min and peaking 20-30 min after exposure. The present results indicate a link between the activation of the three major MAPK pathways, NF-kappaB, and the upregulation of ICAM-1 gene expression evoked by Ad5 in the very initial phase of infection. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE AND DESIGN: Lung intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression is increased by LPS or hyperoxia on type II cells in vivo. The goals of the present study were to determine the mechanisms of ICAM-1 expression in a lung alveolar epithelial cell line (A549) exposed to lipopolysaccharide (LPS). MATERIALS: A549 cells, a transformed human cell line with characteristics of alveolar epithelial cells, were used. TREATMENT: Cells were exposed to LPS, TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, or media alone for up to 12 h. METHODS: Northern blot analyses were done to determine mRNA expression of ICAM-1 after exposures. Protein binding to NF-kappaB sequences were determined by gel mobility shift assays and super-shift analysis. RESULTS: ICAM-1 mRNA expression was induced in A549 cells with exposure to LPS for 1 to 4 h, and was diminished to baseline at 8 h, and the inductions were independent of TNF-alpha and IL-1beta expression. Nuclear protein extracts from LPS-exposed cells bound to a NF-kappaB sequence and the timing of increased binding correlated closely with ICAM-1 mRNA induction. Super-shift studies indicated that p65 was involved in the binding to the NF-kappaB sequence and p50 was not. CONCLUSION: LPS inducibility of ICAM-1 mRNA in A549 cells is independent of TNF- and IL-1 in A549 cells, and the similar time course of mRNA induction and NF-kappaB activation suggest the induction of ICAM-1 is mediated, in part, by NF-kappaB. 相似文献

Management of melanoma is a growing and challenging public health issue requiring novel and multidisciplinary approaches to achieve more efficient prevention and therapeutic benefits. The aim of this article is to show the critical role of APE/Ref-1 on melanomagenesis and progression. APE/Ref-1 serves as a redox-sensitive node of convergence of various signals as well as a DNA-repair enzyme, and its activation protects melanocytes and melanoma cells from chronic oxidative stress and promotes cell survival via mediation of downstream pathways. APE/Ref-1 is a strong candidate as a potential drug-treatable target for the prevention and treatment of human melanoma. Lead compounds exhibiting inhibitory effects on APE/Ref-1 are also reviewed. We anticipate potential clinical benefit in the future through inhibition of APE/Ref-1 and/or Ref-1-mediated signaling. 相似文献

Expression of 15-lipoxygenase (15-LO) is induced over 100-fold in early fatty streak lesions. 15-LO activity leads to the production of specific lipid hydroperoxides, which can have major effects on the expression of proinflammatory genes involved in atherogenesis. We have used retrovirus-mediated gene transfer to achieve stable high expression of 15-LO in human endothelial ECV304 cells. These cells were used to study the effects of 15-LO on the expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) and intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB), and T-cell adhesion on endothelial cells. NF-kappaB activation was greatly potentiated by increased 15-LO activity in the stably transduced cells, and both VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 were significantly induced in these cells in response to tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) stimulation, as studied by flow cytometry. The induction of ICAM-1 was sensitive to antioxidants in a dose-dependent manner. The adherence of Jurkat T cells on the 15-LO-expressing endothelial cells was markedly induced after PMA stimulation. These results indicate that 15-LO activity may be involved in the early pathogenesis of atherosclerosis by inducing VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 expression and by increasing T-cell adhesion on the endothelium. 相似文献

Thioredoxin (Trx-1), a key mediator of cellular redox homeostasis and cell survival, is implicated in redox signaling in the ischemic myocardium. To investigate further its mechanism of action, Trx expression in rat heart was suppressed by direct injection of small hairpin RNA against Trx-1 (shRNA-Trx-1). Forty-eight hours after treatment, hearts were excised for isolated working-heart preparation. A group of hearts was preconditioned (PC) by subjecting them to four cyclic episodes of 5-min ischemia, each followed by 10 min of reperfusion. All the hearts, PC or non-PC, were subjected to 30-min ischemia followed by 2 h of reperfusion. As expected, the PC hearts exhibited improved ventricular function, reduced infarct size, and cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Also in PC hearts, an increase was noted in Trx-1 and other cardioprotective and redox-regulated proteins like Ref-1, phospho-Akt, and NF-kappaB DNA-binding activity. PC also caused nuclear translocation of Trx-1 and Ref-1 followed by their association. However, in hearts treated with shRNA-Trx 1, the cardioprotective effects of PC were abolished along with a concomitant decrease in nuclear localized Trx-1 and Ref-1, along with a decrease in phospho-Akt and NF-kappaB. These results demonstrate that PC triggers translocation of Trx-1 into the nucleus, where it becomes associated with Ref-1 and performs redox signaling through the activation of NF-kappaB and an increase in prosurvival signal inducer phospho-Akt. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) has been shown to mediate the adhesion and migration of eosinophils to the site of allergic inflammation. However, molecular mechanisms regulating the expression of ICAM-1 in eosinophils are still being elucidated. We investigated the effect of tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) on ICAM-1 expression of eosinophils. METHODS: The surface expression of ICAM-1 on a human eosinophilic leukaemic cell line, EoL-1, was assessed by immunocytochemical staining. The phosphorylation of inhibitor kappa B-alpha (IkappaB-alpha) and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) was detected by Western blot. Nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-kappaB) pathway-related genes were evaluated by the cDNA expression array system, whereas the activity of NF-kappaB was measured by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA). RESULTS: TNF-alpha was found to induce the cell surface expression of ICAM-1. A specific proteasome inhibitor N-cbz-Leu-Leu-leucinal (MG-132), but not a p38 MAPK inhibitor (SB 203580), was found to suppress the TNF-alpha-induced expression of ICAM-1 on EoL-1 cells. The gene expressions of ICAM-1, NF-kappaB and IkappaBalpha were up-regulated after the stimulation with TNF-alpha. Further, TNF-alpha was shown to induce IkappaB-alpha phosphorylation and degradation, thereby indicating the activation of NF-kappaB. In EMSA, there was a shifted NF-kappaB band on TNF-alpha-treated cells with or without SB 203580, but no shifted band was observed on MG-132-treated cells. CONCLUSION: In vitro studies of EoL-1 cells, an eosinophilic leukaemic cell line, confirmed that NF-kappaB plays an important role in the expression of ICAM-1 and recruitment of eosinophils in allergic inflammation. 相似文献

The role of interleukin-11 (IL-11) was evaluated in the IgG immune complex model of acute lung injury in rats. IL-11 mRNA and protein were both up-regulated during the course of this inflammatory response. Exogenously administered IL-11 substantially reduced, in a dose-dependent manner, the intrapulmonary accumulation of neutrophils and the lung vascular leak of albumin. These in vivo anti-inflammatory effects of IL-11 were associated with reduced NF-kappaB activation in lung, reduced levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluids, and diminished up-regulation of lung vascular ICAM-1. It is interesting that IL-11 did not affect BAL fluid content of the CXC chemokines, macrophage inflammatory protein-2 (MIP-2) and cytokine-inducible neutrophil chemoattractant (CINC); the presence of IL-11 did not affect these chemokines. However, BAL content of C5a was reduced by IL-11. These data indicate that IL-11 is a regulatory cytokine in the lung and that, like other members of this family, its anti-inflammatory properties appear to be linked to its suppression of NF-kappaB activation, diminished production of TNF-alpha, and reduced up-regulation of lung vascular ICAM-1. 相似文献
