Changes in cytochrome P450 expression incurred by inflammatory disease were studied in a murine collagen antibody induced arthritis (CAIA) model and compared to bacterial lipopolysaccharide-treated mice and to cytochrome P450 changes in primary mouse hepatocytes following combination treatments with cytokines IL-1β, IL-6, or TNFα. CAIA in female mice increased serum IL-1β, IL-6 and hepatic serum amyloid A (SAA) mRNA and significantly altered cytochrome P450 mRNA and activity levels. Most cytochrome P450 isoforms were down-regulated, although some, such as Cyp3a13, were up-regulated. Cytokine effects on cytochrome P450 levels in mouse hepatocytes were compared at in vitro cytokine concentrations similar to those measured in CAIA mouse serum in vivo. In vivo and in vitro cytochrome P450 suppression by cytokines was congruent for some cytochrome P450 isoforms (Cyp1a2, Cyp2c29, and Cyp3a11) but not for others (cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR) and Cyp2e1). In mouse hepatocytes, IL-6 and IL-1β in combination in vitro caused a synergistic increase in SAA mRNA expression, but not in cytochrome P450 suppression. IL-1β and IL-6 were equipotent in the suppression of cytochrome P450 gene expression, while TNFα caused mild suppression only at the highest concentrations used. TNFα in combination with IL-1β, IL-6, or both had a protective effect against IL-1β and IL-6-mediated cytochrome P450 suppression. When IL-1β or IL-6 was combined with low concentrations of TNFα, several P450 isoforms were induced rather than suppressed. These data highlight the complexities of performing in vitro-in vivo comparisons using disease models for cytochrome P450 regulation by cytokines. 相似文献

There is increasing evidence that epidermal cytokines play an essential role during the induction of cutaneous immune responses. In the current investigations, we have compared the pattern of cytokines provoked by exposure to allergen with that stimulated by epidermal cytokines and paracrine regulation of cytokine expression. The kinetics of cytokine-induced changes in cutaneous expression of the cytokines interleukin (IL)-1β, tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), and IL-6 have been measured at the protein level. These data confirm that exposure to chemical allergen results in the sequential up-regulation of epidermal cytokines, with a rapid and relatively transient induction of TNF-α protein expression, followed by a more sustained increase in IL-6 production. Intradermal administration of recombinant murine TNF-α and IL-1β each stimulated increases in cutaneous IL-6 protein, although with different tempos. Treatment with TNF-α provoked a rapid (within 2 h) increase in IL-6 expression, whereas IL-1β-induced changes in IL-6 had a more delayed tempo. IL-1β-induced IL-6 production was dependent upon expression of TNF-α such that systemic pretreatment of mice with neutralizing anti-TNF-α antibody markedly inhibited the subsequent induction of cutaneous IL-6 induced by intradermal injection of IL-1β. Thus, intradermal administration of IL-1β apparently induces a similar sequence of events in the skin to that provoked by topical exposure to allergen: up-regulation of IL-6 in a TNF-α-dependent manner. However, treatment with neither allergen nor TNF-α affected the total cumulative levels of cutaneous IL-1β. These data demonstrate that topical exposure to allergen results in the ordered expression of key epidermal cytokines and that the increased bioavailability of each cytokine in turn regulates subsequent cytokine expression. Furthermore, these data suggest that it is the availability of bioactive IL-1β, not changes in total IL-1β expression in the skin, that is the critical factor in IL-1β-dependent events occurring following topical exposure to allergen. 相似文献

Cytochromes P450 (P450s) are down-regulated in hepatocytes in response to inflammation and infection. This effect has been extensively studied in animal models, but significantly less is known about responses in humans and even less about responses in the absence of inducing agents. This article focuses on the effects of bacterial lipopolysaccaride (LPS), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF), interferon gamma (IFN), transforming growth factor-beta (TGF) and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1) on expression of CYP2B6 and the CYP2C mRNAs in human hepatocytes. These effects were compared with responses of the better studied and more abundant CYP3A4. CYP3A4 and CYP2C8 were down-regulated by all cytokine treatments. CYP2C18, which is expressed at very low levels in liver, was unaffected by cytokine treatments. The other CYP2Cs and CYP2B6 showed cytokine-specific effects. CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 showed almost identical response patterns, being down-regulated by IL-6 and TGF but not significantly affected by LPS, TNF, IFN, or IL-1. CYP2B6 mRNA responded only to IL-6 and IFN. IL-6 down-regulated the mRNAs of all P450s studied. Western blot analysis of P450 protein expression supported the mRNA data to a large extent, although some inconsistencies were observed. Our results show that human CYP2C8, 2C9, 2C18, 2C19, 2B6, and 3A4 responses to inflammation are independently regulated and indicate that this fine control may have a critical effect on human drug responses in disease states. 相似文献

Hepatic cytochrome P450 (P450) gene and protein expression are modulated during inflammation and infection. Oral infection of C57BL/6 mice with Citrobacter rodentium produces mild clinical symptoms while selectively regulating hepatic P450 expression and elevating levels of proinflammatory cytokines. Here, we explored the role of cytokines in the regulation of hepatic P450 expression by orally infecting tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα) receptor 1 null mice (TNFR1−/−), interleukin-1 (IL1) receptor null mice (IL1R1−/−), and Kupffer cell depleted mice with C. rodentium. CYP4A mRNA and protein levels and flavin monooxygenase (FMO)3 mRNA expression levels were down-regulated, while CYP2D9 and CYP4F18 mRNAs remained elevated during infection in wild-type, receptor knockout, and Kupffer cell depleted mice. CYPs 3A11 and 3A25 mRNA levels were down-regulated during infection in wild-type mice but not in TNFR1−/− mice. Consistent with this observation, CYPs 3A11 and 3A25 were potently down-regulated in mouse hepatocytes treated with TNFα. Oral infection of IL1R1−/− mice and studies with mouse hepatocytes indicated that IL1 does not directly regulate CYP3A11 or CYP3A25 expression. Uninfected mice injected with clodronate liposomes had a significantly reduced number of Kupffer cells in their livers. Infection increased the Kupffer cell count, which was attenuated by clodronate treatment. The P450 mRNA and cytokine levels in infected Kupffer cell depleted mice were comparable to those in infected mice receiving no clodronate. The results indicate that TNFα is involved in the regulation of CYPs 3A11 and 3A25, but IL1β and Kupffer cells may not be relevant to hepatic P450 regulation in oral C. rodentium infection. 相似文献

Alveolar type II epithelial (AEII) cells regulate lung inflammatory response and, simultaneously, they are a target of environmental carcinogenic factors. We employed an in vitro model of rat AEII cells, the RLE-6TN cell line, in order to analyze the interactive effects of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), a cytokine which plays a key role in the initiation of inflammatory responses in the lung, and benzo[ a]pyrene (BaP), a highly carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon. TNF-α strongly augmented the formation of stable BaP diol epoxide-DNA adducts in AEII cells, which was associated with enhanced p53-Ser15 phosphorylation and decreased cell survival. The increased genotoxicity of BaP was associated with altered expression of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes involved in its bioactivation, a simultaneous suppression of CYP1A1 and enhancement of CYP1B1 expression. Importantly, BaP and TNF-α acted synergistically to upregulate key inflammatory regulators in AEII cells, including the expression of inducible NO synthase and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and enhanced prostaglandin E2 production and expression of proinflammatory cytokines, such as TNF-α, interleukin-1β and interleukin-6. We observed that BaP and TNF-α together strongly activated p38 kinase, a principal regulator of inflammatory response. SB202190, a specific p38 inhibitor, prevented induction of both COX-2 and proinflammatory cytokines, thus confirming that p38 activity was crucial for the observed inflammatory reaction. Taken together, our data demonstrated, for the first time, that a proinflammatory cytokine and an environmental PAH may interact to potentiate both DNA damage and the inflammatory response in AEII cells, which may occur through coordinated upregulation of p38 activity. 相似文献

Exposure to cytokines can down-regulate hepatic cytochrome P450 enzymes. Accordingly, relief of inflammation by cytokinetargeted drug therapy has the potential to up-regulate cytochrome P450s and thereby increase clearance of co-administered drugs. This study examined the effects of the inflammatory cytokine, interleukin 1β (IL-1β), and IL-1β/interleukin 6 (IL-6) combinations on drug metabolizing enzymes in human hepatocyte culture. Treatment of hepatocytes with IL-1β revealed suppression of mRNA expression of several clinically important cytochrome P450 isoenzymes, with EC50 values that differed by isoenzyme. Suppression of CYP1A2 activity by IL-1β could not be measured in 3 of 5 donors due to lack of response, and in the two remaining donors the average EC50 was 450 pg/mL. CYP3A activity had an EC50 of suppression of 416 ± 454 pg/mL. Measurable EC50s were obtained for all 5 donors for CYP2C8, 3A4, 3A5, 4A11 and IL-6R mRNA with fold differences which varied between 9.5-fold (CYP2C8) to 109-fold (CYP4A11). When hepatocytes were treated with IL-1β and IL-6 in combination at concentrations which ranged from 1-100 pg/mL, IL-6 was the main determinant of increases in acute phase response marker mRNA and of decreases in CYP3A4 mRNA. There was no synergy between IL-1β and IL-6 in the regulation of cytochrome P450 mRNA when dosed in combination, although the effects of the two cytokines in combination were additive in certain instances. These data indicate that IL-1β and IL-6 both suppress cytochrome P450 mRNA and enzyme levels in vitro and that, at similar physiologically-relevant concentrations in vitro, IL-6 is more potent than IL-1β. 相似文献

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a spectrum of liver disorders. It is defined by the presence of steatosis in more than 5% of hepatocytes with little or no alcohol consumption. Insulin resistance, the metabolic syndrome or type 2 diabetes and genetic variants of PNPLA3 or TM6SF2 seem to play a role in the pathogenesis of NAFLD. The pathological progression of NAFLD follows tentatively a “three-hit” process namely steatosis, lipotoxicity and inflammation. The presence of steatosis, oxidative stress and inflammatory mediators like TNF-α and IL-6 has been implicated in the alterations of nuclear factors such as CAR, PXR, PPAR-α in NAFLD. These factors may result in altered expression and activity of drug metabolizing enzymes (DMEs) or transporters. Existing evidence suggests that the effect of NAFLD on CYP3A4, CYP2E1 and MRP3 is more consistent across rodent and human studies. CYP3A4 activity is down-regulated in NASH whereas the activity of CYP2E1 and the efflux transporter MRP3 is up-regulated. However, it is not clear how the majority of CYPs, UGTs, SULTs and transporters are influenced by NAFLD either in vivo or in vitro. The alterations associated with NAFLD could be a potential source of drug variability in patients and could have serious implications for the safety and efficacy of xenobiotics. In this review, we summarize the effects of NAFLD on the regulation, expression and activity of major DMEs and transporters. We also discuss the potential mechanisms underlying these alterations. 相似文献

We report here a comprehensive evaluation of the effects of culture duration on the gene expression of P450 isoforms, uptake transporters and efflux transporters in human hepatocyte cultured in the absence and presence of the prototypical proinflammatory cytokine, interleukin-6 (IL-6). Primary collagen-matrigel sandwich cultures of human hepatocytes were cultured in supplemented William's E medium containing 0, 0.1, 0.5 and 5 ng/mL of IL-6 for the time periods of 2, 6, 12, 24 and 48 hrs. Real-time PCR was performed to quantify gene expression of acute phase proteins (suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS-3), c-reactive protein (CRP) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-binding proteins (LBP)); P450 isoforms (CYPs 1A2, 2B6, 2C8, 2C9, 2D6, 3A4, and 3A5), uptake transporters (SLC10A1, SLC22A1, SLC22A7, SLCO1B1, SLCO1B3, SLCO2B1) and efflux transporters (ABCB1, ABCB11, ABCC2, ABCC3, ABCC4, ABCG2). SOCS-3, CRP, and LBP were extensively induced by IL-6, with maximal induction observed at 2 (SOCS-3) and 12 hrs (CRP; LBP), demonstrating that the cultured human hepatocytes responded to IL-6 treatment. In the untreated group (control), gene expression of P450 isoforms and uptake transporters decreased while efflux transporters remained relatively stable or increased with cultured duration. IL-6 predominantly caused down regulations of the genes studied, with the most significant changes observed at different treatment durations, apparently related to the stability of the basal levels of gene expression. For instance, for genes with unstable expression, which would decrease rapidly in culture (e.g CYP3A4), the most definitive down regulatory effects were observed at a relatively early time point (e.g. 12 hrs). In contrast, a longer treatment duration (e.g. 48 hrs) was required for genes with relatively stable expression levels in culture (e.g. ABCB1). Based on our findings, evaluation of multiple treatment durations rather than single treatment duration is recommended for the evaluation of biotherapeutics in cultured human hepatocytes where down regulation is expected. 相似文献

The cytokine oncostatin M (OSM) is a member of the interleukin (IL)-6 family, known to down-regulate expression of drug metabolizing cytochromes P-450 in human hepatocytes. The present study was designed to determine whether OSM may also impair expression of sinusoidal and canalicular drug transporters, which constitute important determinants of drug hepatic clearance. Exposure of primary human hepatocytes to OSM down-regulated mRNA levels of major sinusoidal solute carrier (SLC) influx transporters, including sodium-taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (NTCP), organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B1, OATP1B3, OATP2B1, organic cation transporter 1 and organic anion transporter 2. OSM also repressed mRNA expressions of ATP binding cassette (ABC) efflux transporters such as multidrug resistance protein (MRP) 2/ABCC2 and breast cancer resistance protein/ABCG2, without however impairing those of multidrug resistance gene 1/P-glycoprotein/ABCB1, MRP3/ABCC3, MRP4/ABCC4 and bile salt export pump/ABCB11. The cytokine concomitantly reduced NTCP, OATP1B1, OATP2B1 and ABCG2 protein expression and NTCP and OATP transport activities. OSM effects towards transporters were found to be dose-dependent and highly correlated with those of IL-6, but not with those of other inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-α or interferon-γ. In addition, OSM-mediated repression of some transporters such as NTCP, OATP1B1 and OATP2B1, was counteracted by knocking-down expression of the type II OSM receptor subunits through siRNA transfection. This OSM-mediated down-regulation of drug SLC transporters and ABCG2 in human hepatocytes may contribute to alterations of pharmacokinetics in patients suffering from diseases associated with increased production of OSM. 相似文献

Acyclic nucleoside phosphonates (ANP) are virostatics effective against viruses like hepatitis B virus and human immunodeficiency virus. Our previous reports indicated immunomodulatory activities of ANP in mouse and human innate immune cells. Recently, evidence has increased that hepatocytes may play an active role in immune regulation of the liver homeostasis or injury. In this study we investigated possible immunomodulatory effects of ANP on rat hepatocytes and macrophages. Nitric oxide (NO) production and secretion of cytokines (IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-13, IL-18, IFN-γ, TNF-α and GM-CSF) were analyzed under in vitro conditions. Test compounds included: 9-[2-(phosphonomethoxy)ethyl]adenine (PMEA; adefovir); 9-[2-(phosphonomethoxy)ethyl]-2,6-diaminopurine (PMEDAP); (R)- and (S)-enantiomers of 9-[2-(phosphonomethoxy)propyl]adenine [(R)-PMPA; tenofovir] and [(S)-PMPA]; 9-[2-(phosphonomethoxy)propyl]-2,6-diaminopurine [(R)-PMPDAP] and [(S)-PMPDAP]. The group of test compounds also included their N(6)-substituted derivatives. Some of ANP which are able to induce NO production and cytokine secretion in cultured macrophages possess the same immunobiological activity in isolated hepatocytes. The extent of responses is in range of LPS/IFN-γ stimulation in both types of cells. The effects of active ANP on NO expression and cytokine secretion are dose- and time-dependent. Interestingly, the spectrum of detected cytokines induced by ANP is broader in hepatocytes. The results also confirm immunomodulatory effects of some ANP on rodent macrophages. Moreover, we demonstrate for the first time immunobiological reactivity of primary rat hepatocytes induced by exogenous ANP compounds. The potential of hepatocytes to synthesize cytokines can contribute to better understanding of liver immune function and can serve for pharmacological intervention in liver diseases. 相似文献

Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is a major cytokine involved in the inflammatory response. Elevated TNF-α expression has been found to be associated with the development of diabetes, septic shock, tumorigenesis, cardiovascular diseases, rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease. In the past decade, the success of anti-TNF-α biologics has valuated the importance of the blockade of TNF-α production in the treatment of patients with various inflammatory diseases. Oxidative stress is another important element in oxidative/inflammatory responses that directly linked to oxidation of proteins, DNA and lipids. The increased oxidant levels could activate nuclear factor-kappaB (NFκ-B), signal transduction and gene expression of TNF-α, interleukin-1 (IL-1) and other pro-inflammatory cytokines. Therefore, TNF-α inhibitors with anti-oxidative stress activity may have multiple target effect that could exhibit excellent anti-inflammatory activities. The review briefly highlights the pathological roles of TNF-α and oxidative stress in inflammation, and covers those natural products as TNF-α inhibitors capable of anti-oxidative stress activity. 相似文献

Antipsychotic drugs (APDs) that bind mainly to the dopamine D2 receptor or the type II 5-HT receptor have been used to ease the symptoms of schizophrenia. Several studies have reported that APDs can also regulate the immune response. Dendritic cells (DCs) are the major antigen-presenting cells in the immune system. DCs can release 5-HT and dopamine to modulate T-cell activation and differentiation. In this study, we use the monocyte-derived DCs to investigate the drug effects of typical APD (haloperidol) and atypical APD (risperidone) on DCs in vitro. Our studies revealed that only risperidone but not haloperidol affected the cytokine and chemokine production of mature DCs. Risperidone increased the production of IL-10 and MDC as well as the proinflammatory cytokines, such as IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α, but decreased the production of IP-10 and IL-12. Furthermore, the exposure of DCs to risperidone led to lower IFN-γ production by T-cells. The results suggested that risperidone can modulate the DCs' immune function by inhibiting the potent Th1 cytokines and increasing the potent Th2 cytokines. In addition, the production of TNF-α by risperidone-treated mature DCs will induce the death of neutrophils. 相似文献

Cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) is the most abundant cytochrome P450 enzyme in human liver and metabolizes more than 60% of prescribed drugs in human body. Patients with liver conditions such as cirrhosis show increased secretion of cytokines (e.g., interleukin-6) and decreased capacity of oxidation of many drugs. In this study, we provided molecular evidence that cytokine secretion directly contributed to the decreased capacity of oxidative biotransformation in human liver. After human hepatocytes were treated with IL-6, the expression of CYP3A4 decreased at both mRNA and protein levels, so did the CYP3A4 enzymatic activity. Meanwhile, the repression of CYP3A4 by IL-6 occurred after the decrease of pregnane X receptor (PXR) in human hepatocytes. The PXR-overexpressed cells (transfected with human PXR) increased the CYP3A4 mRNA level, and the repression of CYP3A4 by IL-6 was greater in the PXR-overexpressed cells than in the control cells. Further, PXR knockdown (transfected with siPXR construct) decreased the CYP3A4 mRNA level with less repression by IL-6 than in the control cells transfected with corresponding vector. Collectively, our study suggests that PXR is necessary for IL-6-mediated repression of the CYP3A4 expression in human hepatocytes. 相似文献

The foodborne mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON) induces a ribotoxic stress response in mononuclear phagocytes that mediate aberrant multi-organ upregulation of TNF-α, interleukins and chemokines in experimental animals. While other DON congeners also exist as food contaminants or pharmacologically-active derivatives, it is not known how these compounds affect expression of these cytokine genes in vivo. To address this gap, we compared in mice the acute effects of oral DON exposure to that of seven relevant congeners on splenic expression of representative cytokine mRNAs after 2 and 6 h. Congeners included the 8-ketotrichothecenes 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol (3-ADON), 15-acetyldeoxynivalenol (15-ADON), fusarenon X (FX), nivalenol (NIV), the plant metabolite DON-3-glucoside (D3G) and two synthetic DON derivatives with novel satiety-inducing properties (EN139528 and EN139544). DON markedly induced transient upregulation of TNF-α IL-1β, IL-6, CXCL-2, CCL-2 and CCL-7 mRNA expressions. The two ADONs also evoked mRNA expression of these genes but to a relatively lesser extent. FX induced more persistent responses than the other DON congeners and, compared to DON, was: 1) more potent in inducing IL-1β mRNA, 2) approximately equipotent in the induction of TNF-α and CCL-2 mRNAs, and 3) less potent at upregulating IL-6, CXCL-2, and CCL-2 mRNAs. EN139528's effects were similar to NIV, the least potent 8-ketotrichothecene, while D3G and EN139544 were largely incapable of eliciting cytokine or chemokine mRNA responses. Taken together, the results presented herein provide important new insights into the potential of naturally-occurring and synthetic DON congeners to elicit aberrant mRNA upregulation of cytokines associated with acute and chronic trichothecene toxicity. 相似文献

This study was designed to investigate the pharmacological efficacy of glycyrrhetinic acid liposome (GAL) against female mice with nonbacterial cystitis induced by cyclophosphamide (CPS). Mice in different groups were subjected to tests for lactate dehydrogenase (LD), cytokine contents (IL-6, TNF-α) in serum, and histological changes in bladder tissue and to immunoassays. As a result, cyclophosphamide-induced cystitis in mice showed an increased LD level in serum, and the contents of cytokines (IL-6, TNF-α) were elevated. Interestingly, GAL-treated mice showed decreased LD and inflammatory cytokines of IL-6 and TNF-α in blood. Inflammatory infiltration and cell death in bladder tissue were reduced by GAL treatments. In addition, intravesical mRNAs of NF-κB and TNF-α were lowered dose-dependently in GAL-treated mice. As shown in cytohistological staining, the number of intravesical caspase-3, PARP-positive cells decreased in GAL-treated mice. Furthermore, a GAL-treated bladder showed down-regulated NF-κB and TNF-α expressions in a dose-dependent manner. In conclusion, our current findings may be the first to provide scientific evidence demonstrating that glycyrrhetinic acid liposomes provide benefits against cyclophosphamide-induced cystitis, which possibly occurs through underlying mechanisms that inhibit cell death and inflammatory stress. 相似文献

Our previous studies carried out on rats showed that mirtazapine given intraperitoneally at a dose of 3 mg/kg, twice a day for two weeks, increased the activity of CYP2D measured as ethylmorphine O-deethylation in liver microsomes. The aim of the present work was to find out whether the mirtazapine-induced increase in the CYP2D activity observed in vivo is connected with the central action of mirtazapine or the drug acts directly on hepatocytes. For this purpose, we studied the influence of pharmacological concentrations of mirtazapine (0.1, 1.0, 10 microM for 96 h) on the activity of CYP2D measured as the rates of ethylmorphine O-deethylation and dextromethorphan O-demethylation in the primary culture of rat hepatocytes. Additionally, we tested the ability of CYP isoforms to catalyze ethylmorphine O-deethylation, using cDNA-expressed CYPs and CYP inhibitors applied to liver microsomes. The obtained results indicate that mirtazapine applied at pharmacological concentrations can moderately increase the activity of rat CYP2D in hepatocytes, and CYP2D2 isoform contributes mostly to this effect. Similar result was previously obtained after in vivo administered mirtazapine in liver microsomes, but not in brain microsomes, the latter containing mainly CYP2D4 isoform. Mirtazapine appears to act directly on hepatocytes and its effect does not seem to depend on the central pharmacological action of the antidepressant. CYP2D2 is the main isoform catalyzing ethylmorphine O-deethylation while CYP2A2, CYP2C6 and CYP2C11 are of minor importance. 相似文献

BackgroundAs an ongoing worldwide health issue, Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID–19) has been causing serious complications, including pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and multi-organ failure. However, there is no decisive treatment approach available for this disorder, which is primarily attributed to the large amount of inflammatory cytokine production. We aimed to identify the effects of Nano-curcumin on the modulation of inflammatory cytokines in COVID-19 patients. MethodForty COVID-19 patients and 40 healthy controls were recruited and evaluated for inflammatory cytokine expression and secretion. Subsequently, COVID-19 patients were divided into two groups: 20 patients receiving Nano-curcumin and 20 patients as the placebo group. The mRNA expression and cytokine secretion levels of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α and IL‐18 were assessed by Real‐time PCR and ELISA, respectively. ResultOur primary results indicated that the mRNA expression and cytokine secretion of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-18 were increased significantly in COVID-19 patients compared with healthy control group. After treatment with Nano-curcumin, a significant decrease in IL-6 expression and secretion in serum and in supernatant ( P = 0.0003, 0.0038, and 0.0001, respectively) and IL-1β gene expression and secretion level in serum and supernatant ( P = 0.0017, 0.0082, and 0.0041, respectively) was observed. However, IL-18 mRNA expression and TNF-α concentration were not influenced by Nano-curcumin. ConclusionNano-curcumin, as an anti-inflammatory herbal based agent, may be able to modulate the increased rate of inflammatory cytokines especially IL-1β and IL-6 mRNA expression and cytokine secretion in COVID-19 patients, which may cause an improvement in clinical manifestation and overall recovery. 相似文献
