Purpose
The isoprenoid geranylgeraniol (GGOH) inhibits nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) activation in the liver, yet the mechanism remains unclear. We investigated the modulation and inhibition of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced NF-κB signaling in the liver of rats fed a GGOH-supplemented diet.Methods
Rats were fed a diet supplemented with or without GGOH for 10 days. Rats were then intraperitoneally injected with 0.5 mg/kg LPS or vehicle (sterilized saline) and fasted for 18 h. Plasma levels of the inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6, and the liver damage indicators alanine and aspartate aminotransferases (ALT and AST) were assessed. Liver mRNA and proteins were assayed for changes in NF-κB target genes and signal transduction genes.Results
Rats fed a high-dose, GGOH-supplemented diet showed significantly lower levels of plasma inflammatory cytokines and ALT and AST activities. In the liver, GGOH significantly suppressed NF-κB activation and mRNA expression of its pro-inflammatory target genes. Furthermore, GGOH supplementation substantially suppressed mRNA expression of signal transducer genes upstream of the IκB kinase complex. Western blotting of liver extracts further demonstrated the substantial decrease in total IL-1 receptor-associated kinase 1 (IRAK1) and TNF receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6), leading to lower signal transduction and inhibition of NF-κB after LPS.Conclusion
A 10-day, high-dose, GGOH-supplemented diet was sufficient to inhibit LPS-induced inflammation and activation of NF-κB in rat livers. GGOH significantly modulated NF-κB signaling molecules, inhibiting its signal transduction and activation in the liver, thus protecting against liver damage. 相似文献3.

ObjectiveThe present study was designed to investigate the effect of a high-fat diet (HFD) on the inflammatory response of peritoneal macrophages.MethodsMale Wistar rats were fed a control diet (n = 12) or an HFD (n = 12) for 12 wk. After euthanasia, peritoneal macrophages were collected and stimulated (or not) with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Results from the assays using peritoneal macrophages were analyzed with one-way analysis of variance or an equivalent non-parametric test. The level of significance adopted was 0.05.ResultsConsumption of the HFD was associated with significant increases in weight gain and fat depots (P < 0.05). Despite having no influence in systemic markers of inflammation, such as interleukin (IL)-6, tumor necrosis factor-α, and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, the HFD intake significantly decreased insulin sensitivity, as evaluated by the homeostasis model assessment index (P < 0.05). A decreased production of IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10, and nitric oxide in response to the LPS stimulation was observed in peritoneal macrophages from the HFD group (P < 0.05). Also, in HFD-fed animals, LPS incubation did not increase IL-1β and IL-6 mRNA expression (P < 0.05). These effects were associated with an attenuation of IκB inhibitor kinase-β phosphorylation and nuclear factor-κB activation in response to LPS and with a failure to decrease IκB inhibitor-α expression (P < 0.05).ConclusionChronic consumption of an HFD decreased the LPS-induced inflammatory response of peritoneal macrophages, which was associated with a downregulation of the nuclear factor-κB signaling pathway. 相似文献

ObjectiveChronic generation of inflammatory cytokines and reactive oxygen species are implicated in atherosclerosis, aging, cancers, and other chronic diseases. We hypothesized that zinc induces A20 in premonocytic, endothelial, and cancer cells, and A20 binds to tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-receptor associated factor, and inhibits Iκ kinase-α (IKK-α)/nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), resulting in downregulation of TNF-α and interleukin-1β (IL-1β).MethodsTo test this hypothesis, we used HL-60, human umbilical vein endothelial cells, and SW480 cell lines under zinc-deficient and zinc-sufficient conditions in this study. We measured oxidative stress markers, inflammatory cytokines, A20 protein and mRNA, A20–FRAF-1 complex, and IKK-α/NF-κB signaling in stimulated zinc-deficient and zinc sufficient cells. We also conducted antisense A20 and siRNA studies to investigate the regulatory role of zinc in TNF-α and IL-1β via A20.ResultsWe found that zinc increased A20 and A20–tumor necrosis factor-receptor associated factor-1 complex, decreased the IKK-α/NF-κB signaling pathway, oxidative stress markers, and inflammatory cytokines in these cells compared with zinc-deficient cells. We confirmed that zinc-induced A20 contributes to downregulation of TNF-α and IL-1β by antisense and short interfering RNA A20 studies.ConclusionOur studies suggest that zinc suppresses generation of NF-κB–regulated inflammatory cytokines by induction of A20. 相似文献

In this study, Musca domestica pupae lectin (MPL) was screened for its immunomodulatory effect on macrophages. The phagocytosis of macrophages was improved significantly when they were treated with MPL: remarkable changes were observed in the morphology of the cells, the metabolic abilities of DNA and RNA were enhanced, and the production of hepatin was increased. Meanwhile, compared with the control group, not only the mRNA expressions of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) in macrophages, but also the productions of proteins, were strongly induced by MPL; these effects were inhibited by pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate. Further study suggested that MPL could increase the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) p65 level in the nucleus. Overall, these results indicate that the improving immunomodulatory activity induced by MPL is mainly due to the increasing productions of TNF-α, IL-6, and IFN-γ and that the activation of macrophage by MPL is partly mediated via the NF-κB pathway. 相似文献

Background and aims
Protein malnutrition affects resistance to infection by impairing the inflammatory response, modifying the function of effector cells, such as macrophages. Recent studies have revealed that glutamine—a non-essential amino acid, which could become conditionally essential in some situations like trauma, infection, post-surgery and sepsis—is able to modulate the synthesis of cytokines. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of glutamine on the expression of proteins involved in the nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signalling pathway of peritoneal macrophages from malnourished mice.Methods
Two-month-old male Balb/c mice were submitted to protein-energy malnutrition (n = 10) with a low-protein diet containing 2 % protein, whereas control mice (n = 10) were fed a 12 % protein-containing diet. The haemogram and analysis of plasma glutamine and corticosterone were evaluated. Peritoneal macrophages were pre-treated in vitro with glutamine (0, 0.6, 2 and 10 mmol/L) for 24 h and then stimulated with 1.25 μg LPS for 30 min, and the synthesis of TNF-α and IL-1α and the expression of proteins related to the NF-κB pathway were evaluated.Results
Malnourished animals had anaemia, leucopoenia, lower plasma glutamine and increased corticosterone levels. TNF-α production of macrophages stimulated with LPS was significantly lower in cells from malnourished animals when cultivated in supraphysiological (2 and 10 mmol/L) concentrations of glutamine. Further, glutamine has a dose-dependent effect on the activation of macrophages, in both groups, when stimulated with LPS, inducing a decrease in TNF-α and IL-1α production and negatively modulating the NF-κB signalling pathway.Conclusions
These data lead us to infer that the protein malnutrition state interferes with the activation of macrophages and that higher glutamine concentrations, in vitro, have the capacity to act negatively in the NF-κB signalling pathway. 相似文献9.
Most phenolic compounds and dietary fiber reach intact to the colon. We hypothesized that grape peel powder (GPP), a rich source of these bioactive compounds, modulates inflammatory and oxidative pathways collaborating to attenuate colonic damage in experimental colitis. To determine which bioactive fraction would be responsible for this effect, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of dietary supplementation with whole GPP or the isolated bioactive-rich fractions from GPP (extractable polyphenols [EP], dietary fiber and fiber-bound polyphenols [NEP-F], and dietary fiber) in rats with experimental colitis. Colitis was induced by intrarectal injection of 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS) after 15 days of dietary supplementation. EP diet did not reverse the decrease in feed intake and indeed worsened colon shortening and increased spleen weight; however, these effects were not observed for the GPP group, which had polyphenols associated to the matrix besides the extractable ones. Colitis impaired the activity of colonic antioxidant enzymes and increased lipid peroxidation, protein oxidation, nitric oxide (NO) levels, and proinflammatory cytokines in serum and in the colon tissue. GPP restored the activity of antioxidant enzymes and decreased colon oxidation and NO levels. All grape peel fractions reduced the protein expression of the inhibitor of kappa kinase beta and NO levels in colon tissue, but only NEP-F reduced the expression of phosphorylated nuclear factor kappa B and myeloperoxidase activity. Results demonstrated that GPP attenuates inflammatory and oxidative response in TNBS–induced colitis by downregulating the nuclear factor kappa B pathway and upregulating antioxidant enzymes, with NEP-F being the fraction most likely associated to these protective effects. 相似文献

Chrysophyllum abidum fruit is a seasonal fruit commonly eaten as snacks with abundant health promoting phytochemicals in the fruit peels. The fruit peels have been reported to be rich in anti-inflammatory eleagnine, myricetin rhamnoside, quercetin, linoleic acid and oleic acid. We hypothesized that the anti-inflammatory effect of the peel extract involve suppression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, cyclooxygenase-2 and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB). Hence, this study was designed to assess the anti-nociceptive and anti-inflammatory effects of fruit peel extract of Chrysophyllum albidum in animal models of nociception and inflammation. The anti-nociceptive activity of CAPEE (100 and 400 mg/kg) was evaluated in acetic acid-induced writhing and formalin-induced paw licking in mice. Formalin-induced paw edema and carrageenan-induced air pouch models of inflammation were used to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity. CAPEE (100 and 400 mg/kg) significantly reduced abdominal writhing and paw licking in acetic acid and formalin tests in mice, respectively. CAPEE demonstrated significant inhibition of paw edema at 24 h (41.0% and 55.7%) and 72 h (52.3% and 86.6%) after formalin injection. CAPEE suppressed inflammatory responses in carrageenan-induced air pouch by reducing exudates, inflammatory cells infiltration, nitrites and myeloperoxidase activity. There was significant inhibition of tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-6 levels and reduced immunopositive expression of COX-2 and NF-κB. In conclusion, CAPEE has anti-nociceptive and anti-inflammatory potentials via mechanisms associated with inhibition of pro-inflammatory cytokines and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression through suppression of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) activation, and has potential as a functional food ingredient. 相似文献
