八肽胆囊收缩素对TNF-α诱导的大鼠滑膜细胞株RSC-364 IL-6的作用及其可能的分子机制(英文)

目的: 观察硫酸化八肽胆囊收缩素（sCCK-8）对TNF-α诱导大鼠滑膜细胞株RSC-364 IL-6 mRNA 表达及核因子NF-κB的影响及其可能的受体机制。方法: 大鼠滑膜细胞株RSC-364经TNF-α(10　μg/L)、sCCK-8(10^-8-10^-6 mol/L)、CCK受体拮抗剂丙谷胺（2 mg/L）及溶剂单独或联合孵育3 h，用RT-PCR检测细胞IL-6、CCK-AR及CCK-BR mRNA的表达，孵育1 h，用电泳迁移率检测NF-κB活性，孵育30 min，用Western blotting检测胞浆IκB蛋白表达。结果: RSC-364细胞固有表达CCK-A/B受体，sCCK-8（10^-8-10^-6 mol/L）使IL-6、CCK-AR和CCK-BR mRNA表达进一步增高，明显增加TNF-α诱导的NF-κB活性，降低胞浆中IκB蛋白水平，并可被丙谷胺所拮抗。结论: sCCK-8通过NF-κB途径上调TNF-α诱导的大鼠滑膜细胞IL-6 mRNA表达，此作用可能通过滑膜细胞上的CCK受体实现，提示CCK-8在类风湿性关节炎（RA）发病过程中可能具有调控作用。     

Interleukin-10 inhibits IgE-mediated nitric oxide synthase induction and cytokine synthesis in normal human keratinocytes

Human keratinocytes (HK) generate nitric oxide (NO) and proinflammatory mediators following activation with either IgE/anti-IgE immune complexes or a combination of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and interferon-γ (IFN-γ). Recently, interleukin-10 (IL-10) has been shown to down-regulate various inflammatory responses and to be secreted by lymphocytes and dendritic cells during skin inflammatory reactions. We show here that IL-10 down-regulates the production of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and IL-6 by activated HK. Also, induction of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression in HK by IgE/anti-IgE or LPS/IFN-γ is significantly reduced by the addition of IL-10. This effect is dose dependent and correlates with reduction of iNOS mRNA production and enzyme level. Therefore, IL-10 down-regulates NO-mediated HK inflammatory responses and may thus participate in the regulation of the skin immune network.     

IL-1β、TNF-α和IFN-γ引起的大鼠胰岛细胞凋亡及牛磺酸的影响

目的： 观察白细胞介素-1β(IL-1β)、肿瘤坏死因子-α（TNF-α）和γ-干扰素（IFN-γ）引起胰岛细胞凋亡、胰岛素分泌、Bcl-xL和Bax蛋白表达变化及其牛磺酸的影响。方法： 应用体外单层培养Wistar大鼠胰岛细胞，分别检测IL-1β、TNF-α和 IFN-γ对胰岛细胞凋亡细胞百分率、DNA片段、培养液中NO^-₂/ NO^-₃含量及NOS活性、胰岛素分泌、Bcl-xL和Bax表达的影响，并进一步观察牛磺酸的作用。结果： IL-1β、TNF-α和 IFN-γ联合可诱导胰岛细胞凋亡率明显增加，DNA明显片段化，同时NO^-₂/ NO^-₃含量和NOS活性亦明显升高，胰岛素分泌明显降低, Bcl-xL表达下降和Bax表达增强（P<0.01）；牛磺酸能阻断上述细胞因子的作用（P<0.01），并有一定的剂量依赖性。结论：牛磺酸能够改善IL-1β、TNF-α和 IFN-γ诱导的胰岛细胞凋亡，其机制可能与抑制NOS活性从而减少NO的生成以及下调Bax/Bcl-xL比例有关。

Interleukin-1 beta gene polymorphism related with allergic pathogenesis in Iris constitution

Iridological constitution has a strong familial aggregation and is implicated in heredity. The aetiology of inflammatory bowel disease is still unknown. However, from genetic epidemiological studies there is considerable evidence that genetic factors are associated with both Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. We investigated the relationships between Iridological constitution and interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β) gene polymorphism. IL-1β is a major proinflammatiry cytokine, and the polymorphisms of this gene have been shown to be of importance in a number of diseases. Especially, IL-1 has been suspected of involvement in allergic pathogenesis. Also, IL-1β genotype is one of the genetic markers of gastric cancer. Therefore, we classified 166 individuals according to Iris constitution, and determined IL-1β genotype. The frequencies of Iris constitutions as follows: neurogenic type, 41 (24.7%); abdominal connective tissue weakness type, 53 (31.9%); cardio-renal connective tissue weakness type, 50 (30.1%); the others type, 22 (13.3%). Especially, the frequency of abdominal connective tissue weakness type was higher in C/T genotype than in the remaining constitutions although the statistical power was very weak. Furthermore, we first attempted to explore possible involvement of the IL-1β polymorphism and the Iris constitution.     

Human multiple myeloma cells express peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma and undergo apoptosis upon exposure to PPARgamma ligands

Multiple myeloma is essentially an incurable malignancy and it is therefore of great interest to develop new therapeutic approaches. We previously reported that human B cell-lymphomas express the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) and are killed by PPARgamma ligands. Herein, we investigate the therapeutic potential of PPARgamma ligands for multiple myeloma. The human multiple myeloma cell lines ANBL6 and 8226 express PPARgamma mRNA and protein. The PPARgamma ligands, 15-deoxy-Delta12,14-prostaglandin J2 (15d-PGJ2) and ciglitazone, induced multiple myeloma cell apoptosis as determined by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay, loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, and caspase activation. Importantly, the ability of PPARgamma ligands to kill both multiple myeloma cell lines was not abrogated by Interleukin-6 (IL-6), a multiple myeloma growth survival factor. Finally, the RXR ligand 9-cis retinoic acid (9-cis RA) in combination with PPARgamma ligands greatly enhanced multiple myeloma cell killing. These new findings support that PPARgamma ligands may represent a novel therapy for multiple myeloma.
