Transformation of T cells by the intracellular parasite Theileria parva is accompanied by constitutive I-kappa B degradation and NF-kappa B activation, a process which is essential to prevent the spontaneous apoptosis of these parasite-transformed cells. NF-kappa B-mediated responses are regulated by selective combinations of NF-kappa B proteins as homo- or heterodimers and by distinct kappa B motifs. We characterised the NF-kappa B complexes induced by T. parva infection in TpM(803) T cells. By western blot, we demonstrated that all members of the NF-kappa B/Rel family of proteins translocate to the nucleus of infected cells. Using two different kappa B oligonucleotides (kappa B-1 and kappa B-2), both containing the decameric consensus kappa B motif (GGGACTTTCC), clearly distinct patterns of DNA binding activities could be demonstrated in electrophoretic mobility shift assays. Supershift analysis and UV cross-linking assays showed that complexes binding to kappa B-1 consisted of p50, p65 and RelB homo and/or heterodimers. We could also detect an association of ATF-2 and c-Fos with one of the complexes. The HIV-derived kappa B-2 oligo only bound p50 and p65. Additionally, several agents known to inhibit a wide range of NF-kappa B activation pathways had no inhibitory effect on the activation of NF-kappa B DNA binding in TpM(803) T cells. 相似文献

The cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) inhibitor celecoxib (also called celebrex), approved for the treatment of colon carcinogenesis, rheumatoid arthritis, and other inflammatory diseases, has been shown to induce apoptosis and inhibit angiogenesis. Because NF-kappa B plays a major role in regulation of apoptosis, angiogenesis, carcinogenesis, and inflammation, we postulated that celecoxib modulates NF-kappa B. In the present study, we investigated the effect of this drug on the activation of NF-kappa B by a wide variety of agents. We found that celecoxib suppressed NF-kappa B activation induced by various carcinogens, including TNF, phorbol ester, okadaic acid, LPS, and IL-1 beta. Celecoxib inhibited TNF-induced I kappa B alpha kinase activation, leading to suppression of I kappa B alpha phosphorylation and degradation. Celecoxib suppressed both inducible and constitutive NF-kappa B without cell type specificity. Celecoxib also suppressed p65 phosphorylation and nuclear translocation. Akt activation, which is required for TNF-induced NF-kappa B activation, was also suppressed by this drug. Celecoxib also inhibited the TNF-induced interaction of Akt with I kappa B alpha kinase (IKK). Celecoxib abrogated the NF-kappa B-dependent reporter gene expression activated by TNF, TNF receptor, TNF receptor-associated death domain, TNF receptor-associated factor 2, NF-kappa B-inducing kinase, and IKK, but not that activated by p65. The COX-2 promoter, which is regulated by NF-kappa B, was also inhibited by celecoxib, and this inhibition correlated with suppression of TNF-induced COX-2 expression. Besides NF-kappa B, celecoxib also suppressed TNF-induced JNK, p38 MAPK, and ERK activation. Thus, overall, our results indicate that celecoxib inhibits NF-kappa B activation through inhibition of IKK and Akt activation, leading to down-regulation of synthesis of COX-2 and other genes needed for inflammation, proliferation, and carcinogenesis. 相似文献
