Plasma D-dimer (DD) is considered to be one of the most useful markers in the diagnosis and assessment of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). The present study was performed to clarify the role of DD in a rat model of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced DIC in which low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) and tranexamic acid (TA) were used. We investigated whether a relationship exists between plasma DD levels and severity of DIC. Experimental DIC was induced in rats by a sustained 4-hour infusion of 30 mg/kg LPS administered via the tail vein (LPS group). Rats received either LPS alone (LPS group) or LPS combined with 200 U/kg LMWH (LPS+LMWH group) or 50 mg/kg TA (LPS+TA group) from -30 minutes to 4 hours. Blood was drawn from each rat at 4, 8, and 12 hours. Plasma levels of thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT) and creatinine were suppressed in the LPS+LMWH group, and less glomerular fibrin deposition was observed compared with the LPS group. On the other hand, an increased level of creatinine and increased glomerular fibrin deposition were observed in the LPS+TA group compared with the LPS group. LMWH demonstrated a protective effect against LPS-induced DIC, resulting in increased survival at 12 hours, whereas TA had the opposite effect. From these results, it appears that LMWH protects against LPS-induced DIC, but TA exacerbates LPS-induced DIC. It was interesting that plasma levels of DD were almost completely suppressed by concurrent administration of either TA or LMWH in this LPS-induced DIC model. This finding suggested that plasma levels of DD were suppressed by inhibition of coagulation (reduced deposition of fibrin) in the LPS+LMWH group and that DD levels were also suppressed by inhibition of fibrinolysis (reduced degradation of fibrin by plasmin) in the LPS+TA group. Thus care should be taken when evaluating the significance of plasma DD levels, because suppressed levels can occur with progressive fibrin deposition and worsening organ dysfunction or improvement in the course of DIC.  相似文献

Extravascular coagulation leading to fibrin deposition accompanies many immune and inflammatory responses. Although recognized by pathologists for decades, and probably pathologic under certain conditions, the physiologic functions of extravascular coagulation remain to be fully defined. This study demonstrates that thrombin can activate macrophage adhesion and prompt interleukin-6 (IL-6) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) production in vivo. Peritoneal macrophages were elicited with thioglycollate (TG) and then activated in situ, either by intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or by injection of antigen into mice bearing antigen-primed T cells. Others previously established that such treatments stimulate macrophage adhesion to the mesothelial lining of the peritoneal cavity. The present study demonstrates that thrombin functions in this process, as macrophage adhesion was suppressed by Refludan, a highly specific thrombin antagonist, and induced by direct peritoneal administration of purified thrombin. Although recent studies established that protease activated receptor 1 (PAR-1) mediates some of thrombin's proinflammatory activities macrophage adhesion occurred normally in PAR-1-deficient mice. However, adhesion was suppressed in fibrin(ogen)-deficient mice, suggesting that fibrin formation stimulates macrophage adhesion in vivo. This study also suggests that fibrin regulates chemokine/cytokine production in vivo, as direct injection of thrombin stimulated peritoneal accumulation of IL-6 and MCP-1 in a fibrin(ogen)-dependent manner. Given that prior studies have clearly established inflammatory roles for PAR-1, thrombin probably has pleiotropic functions during inflammation, stimulating vasodilation and mast cell degranulation via PAR-1, and activating cytokine/chemokine production and macrophage adhesion via fibrin(ogen).  相似文献

The phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt) signaling pathway was recently shown to negatively regulate LPS-induced acute inflammatory responses. We previously observed that the metabolic thiol antioxidant alpha-lipoic acid (LA) inhibits LPS-induced expression of cellular adhesion molecules and adherence of monocytes to human aortic endothelial cells. Here we investigated the mechanism by which LA attenuates LPS-induced monocyte activation in vitro and acute inflammatory responses in vivo. Incubation of human monocytic THP-1 cells with LA induced phosphorylation of Akt in a time- and dose-dependent manner. In cells pretreated with LA followed by LPS, Akt phosphorylation was elevated initially and further increased during incubation with LPS. This LA-dependent increase in Akt phosphorylation was accompanied by inhibition of LPS-induced NF-kappaB DNA binding activity and up-regulation of TNFalpha and monocyte chemoattractant protein 1. Lipoic acid-dependent Akt phosphorylation and inhibition of NF-kappaB activity were abolished by the PI3K inhibitors LY294002 and wortmannin. Furthermore, LA treatment of LPS-exposed C57BL/6N mice strongly enhanced phosphorylation of Akt and glycogen synthase kinase 3beta in blood cells; inhibited the LPS-induced increase in serum concentrations and/or tissue expression of adhesion molecules, monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, and TNFalpha; and attenuated NF-kappaB activation in lung, heart, and aorta. Lipoic acid also improved survival of endotoxemic mice. All of these antiinflammatory effects of LA were abolished by treatment of the animals with wortmannin. We conclude that LA inhibits LPS-induced monocyte activation and acute inflammatory responses in vitro and in vivo by activating the PI3K/Akt pathway. Lipoic acid may be useful in the prevention of sepsis and inflammatory vascular diseases.  相似文献

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is tightly regulated by the cellular AMP:ATP ratio and plays a central role in regulation of energy homeostasis and metabolic stress. Metformin has been shown to activate AMPK. We hypothesized that metformin may prevent nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) activation in endothelial cells exposed to inflammatory cytokines. Metformin was observed to activate AMPK, as well as its downstream target, phosphoacetyl coenzyme A carboxylase, in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Metformin also dose-dependently inhibited tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha-induced NF-kappaB activation and TNF-alpha-induced IkappaB kinase activity. Furthermore, metformin attenuated the TNF-alpha-induced gene expression of various proinflammatory and cell adhesion molecules, such as vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, E-selectin, intercellular adhesion molecule-1, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, in HUVECs. A pharmacological activator of AMPK, 5-amino-4-imidazole carboxamide riboside (AICAR), dose-dependently inhibited TNF-alpha- and interleukin-1beta-induced NF-kappaB reporter gene expression. AICAR also suppressed the TNF-alpha- and interleukin-1beta-induced gene expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, E-selectin, intercellular adhesion molecule-1, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 in HUVECs. The small interfering RNA for AMPKalpha1 attenuated metformin or AICAR-induced inhibition of NF-kappaB activation by TNF-alpha, suggesting a possible role of AMPK in the regulation of cell inflammation. In light of these findings, we suggest that metformin attenuates the cytokine-induced expression of proinflammatory and adhesion molecule genes by inhibiting NF-kappaB activation via AMPK activation. Thus, it might be useful to target AMPK signaling in future efforts to prevent atherogenic and inflammatory vascular disease.  相似文献

To better understand hypertension development, the authors determined whether monocyte chemoattractant protein‐1 (MCP‐1) is associated with arterial stiffness (pulse wave velocity [PWV]) and carotid intima‐media wall thickness (cIMT) in a young apparently healthy black and white population (N=403, aged 20–30 years). Carotid‐femoral PWV, central systolic blood pressure, and cIMT were measured, and MCP‐1, reactive oxygen species, inflammatory markers (interleukin 6, tumor necrosis factor α), and endothelial activation (intercellular adhesion molecule, vascular cell adhesion molecule) were determined from blood samples. Although carotid‐femoral PWV and cIMT were similar between blacks and whites, black men and women showed higher central systolic blood pressure, MCP‐1, and reactive oxygen species than whites (all P<.05). In addition, black women had higher brachial blood pressure and interleukin 6 (all P<.001). A consistent positive association only in black women between cIMT and MCP‐1 in multiple regression analyses was found (R²=0.151, β=0.248; P=.021). In this model, cIMT was also independently associated with vascular cell adhesion molecule (β=0.251; P=.022). The authors found elevated central systolic blood pressure and MCP‐1 in young blacks, where cIMT was independently associated with MCP‐1 in black women.  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

Neutrophil infiltration is a feature of alcoholic hepatitis (AH), and although the mechanism by which this occurs is unclear, it may involve a chemotactic gradient. We used lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to induce, in ethanol-fed rats, liver damage similar to that seen in AH. To our knowledge, this study is the first to examine the effect of ethanol on LPS-stimulated chemokine mRNA expression in this model. Hepatic cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant (CINC)-1, CINC-2, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-l), macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1 β, MIP-2, and eotaxin mRNA levels were elevated 1 to 3 hr post-LPS in both groups. Maximal expression of MIP-2 and MCP-1 mRNA was higher in ethanol-fed rats 1 hr post-LPS, whereas CINC-2 mRNA expression was elevated above controls at 12 to 24 hr. Hepatic intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 mRNA levels were elevated in both groups at 1 hr, whereas L-selectin expression in ethanol-fed rats was elevated above controls at 12 to 24 hr. Hepatic neutrophil infiltration was highest during maximal hepatocyte necrosis. These data suggest that cell adhesion molecules, in conjunction with elevated cytokines and the subsequently induced chemokines, may assist in the formation of a chemotactic gradient within the liver, causing the neutrophil infiltration seen both in this model and possibly in AH.  相似文献

Carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) and vascular inflammatory markers have been shown to be involved in atherosclerosis. This study was designed to investigate the effect of transdermal hormone replacement therapy (HRT) on carotid IMT and vascular inflammatory markers in postmenopausal women and to explore the interrelationship between the change in carotid IMT and the changes in vascular inflammatory markers. Thirty-five postmenopausal women (mean age 57.0+/-7.7 years) received transdermal HRT (continuous 17beta-estradiol patch [36 microg/day] plus cyclic oral medroxyprogesterone acetate [2.5 mg/day, for 12 days/ month]) for 12 months, and 32 controls (mean age 58.0+/-7.5 years) did not. Carotid IMT, assessed by ultrasound, and circulating vascular inflammatory markers, i.e., C-reactive protein (CRP), intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1, vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM)-1, E-selectin, monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1, and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 were measured before and after 12 months of treatment. In the HRT group, carotid IMT decreased significantly (p<0.01), from 0.71+/-0.13 mm to 0.65+/-0.12 mm, and the ICAM-1, VCAM-1, E-selectin, and MCP-1 levels decreased significantly (p<0.01 for all), but the CRP and MMP-9 levels remained unchanged. Carotid IMT and vascular inflammatory markers were unchanged in the control group. In the HRT group, the change in carotid IMT was significantly correlated with the change in serum E-selectin (r=0.38, p<0.05), but not with the changes in other vascular inflammatory markers. These results suggest that transdermal HRT reduced carotid artery wall thickness, and that the reduction may have been induced by an antiatherosclerotic effect combined with the direct effect of estrogen and decreased levels of estrogen-induced E-selectin.  相似文献

Although aging accompanies specific pathological changes, including thrombosis and organ sclerosis, the underlying mechanisms of these processes remain to be elucidated. In the present study, we analyzed the gene expression of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), a key molecule in the development of thrombosis, in a murine model of aging, klotho mutant ( kl/kl) mice. Active PAI-1 antigen in plasma and PAI-1 mRNA in several tissues were strikingly elevated in kl/kl mice as compared with wild-type mice. This increased PAI-1 expression was age dependent and linked to the development of ectopic calcification and glomerular fibrin deposition in the kidneys. In situ hybridization analysis of kl/kl mice demonstrated that strong signals for PAI-1 mRNA were localized in renal tubular epithelial cells, cardiomyocytes, adrenal medullar cells, and smooth muscle and endothelial cells in M?nckeberg's arteriosclerotic vessels. Renal glomerular fibrin deposition, as evaluated immunohistochemically, was occasionally observed only in kl/kl mice, and the number of fibrin-positive glomeruli increased as the kl/kl mice aged. These observations suggest that in the process of aging the PAI-1 gene expression is increased, contributing to the development of thrombosis.  相似文献

Thioredoxin (Trx), a redox enzyme with a conserved active site (Cys-32-Gly-Pro-Cys-35), is induced and secreted into circulation in response to inflammation. Studies here demonstrate that elevating Trx levels in circulation either by i.v. injection of recombinant Trx or stimulating Trx release in Trx-transgenic mice dramatically blocks lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated neutrophil migration in the murine air pouch chemotaxis model. Furthermore, we show that leukocyte recruitment induced by the murine chemokines KC/GROalpha, RANTES (regulated upon activation, normal T cell expressed and secreted), and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) is suppressed also in Trx-transgenic mice. Addressing the mechanism responsible for this suppression, we show that circulating Trx blocks (i) the LPS-stimulated in vitro activation of neutrophil p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, (ii) the normal down-regulation of CD62L on neutrophils migrating into the LPS-stimulated air pouch, and (iii) the in vitro adhesion of LPS-activated neutrophils on endothelial cells. However, as we also show, Trx does not alter the expression of endothelial cell adhesion molecules (intercellular adhesion molecule-1, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, CD62P, and CD62E) within 3 h. Collectively, these findings indicate that elevated levels of circulating Trx interfere with chemotaxis by acting directly on neutrophils. We discuss these findings in the context of recent studies reporting beneficial effects of acutely elevated Trx in ischemic injury and negative effects associated with chronically elevated Trx in HIV disease.  相似文献

Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), a multifunctional phospholipid, regulates vascular cell function. Whether S1P influences vascular inflammatory responses, particularly in hypertension, is unclear. We tested the hypothesis that S1P is a proinflammatory mediator signaling through receptor tyrosine kinase transactivation and that responses are amplified in vascular smooth muscle cells from stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSPs), a model in which we demonstrated Edg1 (S1P1 receptor) to be a candidate gene for salt-sensitive hypertension. Vascular smooth muscle cell from Wistar-Kyoto rats and SHRSPs were studied. S1P receptor subtypes, S1P1 and S1P2, were similarly expressed in Wistar-Kyoto rats and SHRSPs. S1P induced phosphorylation of epidermal growth factor receptor and platelet-derived growth factor and activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and c-Jun N-terminal kinase, with amplified effects in SHRSPs versus Wistar-Kyoto rats. Inhibition of epidermal growth factor receptor and platelet-derived growth factor (with AG1478 and AG1296, respectively) abolished S1P-induced phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and c-Jun N-terminal kinase in Wistar-Kyoto rats with variable effects in SHRSPs. Vascular smooth muscle cell inflammation was evaluated by expression of adhesion molecules and functional responses assessed by monocyte adhesion. S1P stimulated expression of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 and vascular cell adhesion protein 1 and promoted monocyte adhesion, particularly in SHRSP cells. S1P-mediated inflammation was blunted by AG1478 and AG1296 in SHRSP cells. VPC23019, a S1P1 receptor antagonist, inhibited S1P-induced mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphorylation, intercellular adhesion molecule 1 and vascular cell adhesion protein 1 expression, and monocyte adhesion. Our data indicate that molecular processes underlying vascular inflammation and cell adhesion in SHRSPs involve S1P/S1P1 receptors and phosphorylation of receptor tyrosine kinases. We identify a novel pathway linking S1P/S1P1 receptors to specific proinflammatory signaling pathways through epidermal growth factor receptor and platelet-derived growth factor transactivation, a process that is upregulated in SHRSPs. Such molecular events may contribute to vascular inflammation in hypertension.  相似文献

Danggui-Buxue-Tang (DBT) is a famous traditional Chinese formula. We determined the effects of DBT on blood lipid and expression of genes related to foam cell formation in the early stage of atherosclerosis in diabetic GK rats. DBT (3 or 6g/kg/day for 4 weeks) was orally administrated to the diabetic atherosclerosis rats, which were induced by nitric oxide inhibition (l-NAME in drinking water, 1mg/ml) plus high-fat diet. The total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and the mRNAs expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1, intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 and CD36 mRNA in aorta were determined. The results demonstrated that DBT could regulate blood lipid, inhibit the genes expression of MCP-1, ICAM-1 and CD36 in aorta.  相似文献
