Although X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) is an important intracellular suppressor of apoptosis in a variety of cell types, its role in cytokine-induced pancreatic beta-cell apoptosis remains unclear. Here, we found that: (i) XIAP level was inversely correlated with tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha-induced apoptosis in MIN6N8 insulinoma cells; (ii) adenoviral XIAP overexpression abrogated the TNF-alpha-induced apoptosis through inhibition of caspase activity; (iii) downregulation of XIAP by antisense oligonucleotide or Smac peptide sensitized MIN6N8 cells to TNF-alpha-induced apoptosis; (iv) XIAP expression was induced by TNF-alpha through a nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB)-dependent pathway, and interferon (IFN)-gamma prevented such an induction in a manner independent of NF-kappaB, which presents a potential mechanism underlying cytotoxic IFN-gamma/TNF-alpha synergism. Taken together, our results suggest that XIAP is an important modulator of TNF-alpha-induced apoptosis of MIN6N8 cells, and XIAP regulation in pancreatic beta-cells might play an important role in pancreatic beta-cell apoptosis and in the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes. 相似文献

Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) is an omega-3 (ω-3) polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA), which has anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties. Some reports have demonstrated that EPA inhibits NF-κB activation induced by tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α or lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in various cells. However, its detailed mode of action is unclear. In this report, we investigated whether EPA inhibits the expression of TNF-α-induced matrix metalloproteinases (MMP)-9 in human immortalized keratinocytes (HaCaT). TNF-α induced MMP-9 expression by NF-κB-dependent pathway. Pretreatment of EPA inhibited TNF-α-induced MMP-9 expression and p65 phosphorylation. However, EPA could not affect IκB-α phosphorylation, nuclear translocation of p65, and DNA binding activity of NF-κB. EPA inhibited TNF-α-induced p65 phosphorylation through p38 and Akt inhibition and this inhibition was IKKα-dependent event. Taken together, we demonstrate that EPA inhibits TNF-α-induced MMP-9 expression through inhibition of p38 and Akt activation. 相似文献

The role that the nuclear factor (NF)-kappa B plays in regulating the biosynthesis of interleukin (IL)-1 beta, an inflammatory cytokine, has been investigated in vitro. Irreversible inhibition of the proteasome complex by carbobenzoxy-L-leucyl-L-leucyl-L-leucinal (MG-132; 1-50 microM) had no inhibitory effect on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-mediated IL-1 beta biosynthesis. Furthermore, selective inhibition of NF-kappa B by the action of caffeic acid phenylethyl ester (CAPE; 1-100 microM) and sulfasalazine (SSA; 0.1-10 mM), a potent and irreversible inhibitor of NF-kappa B, partially attenuated but did not abolish LPS-dependent IL-1 beta secretion. Incorporation of a selectively permeant inhibitor of NF-kappa B, SN-50 (1-20 microM), a peptide which contains the nuclear localization sequence (NLS) for the p50 NF-kappa B subunit and the amino-terminal sequence of Kaposi fibroblast growth factor to promote cell permeability, attenuated in a dose-dependent manner LPS-mediated release of IL-1 beta. It is concluded that the NF-kapp B pathway is partially implicated and its blockade attenuates but does not abrogate LPS-dependent IL-1 beta biosynthesis in alveolar epithelial cells. 相似文献

Nitric oxide (NO) regulates differentiation, survival, and cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 expression in articular chondrocytes. NO-induced apoptosis and dedifferentiation are mediated by p38 kinase activity and p38 kinase-independent and -dependent inhibition of protein kinase C (PKC)alpha and zeta. Because p38 kinase also activates NF-kappa B, we investigated the functional relationship between PKC and NF-kappa B signaling and the role of NF-kappa B in apoptosis, dedifferentiation, and COX-2 expression. We found that NO-stimulated NF-kappa B activation was inhibited by ectopic PKC alpha and zeta expression, whereas NO-stimulated inhibition of PKC alpha and zeta activity was not affected by NF-kappa B inhibition. Inhibition of NO-induced NF-kappa B activity did not affect inhibition of type II collagen expression but did abrogate COX-2 expression and apoptosis. Taken together, our results indicate that NO-induced inhibition of PKC alpha and zeta activity is required for the NF-kappa B activity that regulates apoptosis and COX-2 expression but not dedifferentiation in articular chondrocytes. 相似文献

There is increasing evidence that epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a critical role in cancer metastasis. Butein is a polyphenolic compound, which has been found to exhibit anti-proliferation effects on cancer cells. Here, we report that in addition to its function as an anti-proliferation agent, butein can inhibit migration and invasion through the ERK1/2 and NF-kappaB signaling pathways in human bladder cancer cells, and this inhibitory effect may be associated with reversal of EMT. These results were further confirmed by RNAi-mediated suppression of NF-kappaB, which partly reverses EMT and inhibits cell invasive ability in vitro. These results suggest a novel function of butein as an invasion inhibitor in bladder cancer. 相似文献

LPS induces the production of inflammatory cytokines via the stimulation of Toll-like receptors. In this study, we demonstrated that a soluble secreted form of the ST2 gene product (ST2), a member of the interleukin-1 receptor family, suppressed the production of IL-6 in an LPS-stimulated human monocytic leukemia cell line, THP-1. Immunofluorescence confocal microscopy revealed the binding of ST2 to the surface of the THP-1 cells, in which ST2 led to decreased binding of nuclear factor-kappaB to the IL-6 promoter. Furthermore, the degradation of IkappaB in the cytoplasm after LPS stimulation was reduced by pretreatment with ST2. These results demonstrated that ST2 negatively regulates LPS-induced IL-6 production via the inhibition of IkappaB degradation in THP-1 cells. 相似文献
