Evidence for the presence of P2-purinoceptors at the surface of human articular chondrocytes in monolayer culture 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Extracellular purines can act at purinoceptors to influence metabolic processes. Nucleotide-metabolizing ectoenzymes may modulate such purinergic effects, and their occurrence in a tissue may suggest the presence of purinoceptors. Thus, following the identification of ecto-nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphatase in cultured human articular chondrocytes, we have studied whether these cells express P2-type purinoceptors. Release of prostaglandin E (PGE) was monitored, since articular chondrocytes synthesize and secrete PGE, and activation of P2-purinoceptors frequently results in enhanced prostaglandin production. Extracellular ATP and ADP stimulated PGE production, whereas AMP and adenosine had only limited effects. ATP concentrations as low as 5 microM were effective, and maximal responses were achieved at 50-100 microM ATP. GTP, UTP and ITP also elicited responses, but tended to be less effective than ATP at equivalent concentrations. Of the analogues of ATP that were tested, only adenosine 5'-(beta,gamma-methylene)triphosphate stimulated PGE production. The response to extracellular ATP was virtually abolished by indomethacin. Treatment of the cells with the P1-purinoceptor antagonist, 8-phenyltheophylline, or with pertussis toxin reduced both basal and ATP-stimulated PGE production, but did not substantially decrease the ratio of ATP-stimulated to basal PGE production. These results indicate the presence of P2-purinoceptors in cultured human articular chondrocytes, and suggest that extracellular ATP may have physiological and pathological effects in human articular cartilage. 相似文献

Stimulation of human chondrocyte prostaglandin E2 production by recombinant human interleukin-1 and tumour necrosis factor 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In this study we have examined the effects of recombinant cytokine preparations on the production of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) by human articular chondrocytes in both chondrocyte monolayer and cartilage organ cultures. The cytokines chosen for this study included only those reported to be present in rheumatoid synovial fluids and which therefore could conceivably play a role in chondrocyte activation in inflammatory arthritis. Of the cytokines tested, interleukin-1 (IL-1; alpha and beta forms) consistently induced the highest levels of PGE2 production followed, to a lesser extent, by tumour necrosis factor (TNF; alpha and beta forms). The IL-1s were effective at concentrations 2-3 orders of magnitude less than the TNFs, with each cytokine demonstrating a dose-dependent increase in PGE2 synthesis for the two culture procedures. The increased PGE2 production by the chondrocytes exhibited a lag phase of 4-8 h following the addition of the IL-1 or TNF and was inhibited by actinomycin D and cycloheximide, indicating a requirement for de novo RNA and protein synthesis, respectively. Our results suggest that IL-1 may be the key cytokine involved in modulating chondrocyte PGE2 production in inflammatory arthritis; they further extend the list of human chondrocyte responses which are affected by both IL-1 and TNF. 相似文献

Interleukin-1 induces release of NO and PGE(2) and production of matrix degrading enzymes in chondrocytes. In osteoarthritis (OA), IL-1 continually, or episodically, acts on chondrocytes in a paracrine and autocrine manner. Human chondrocytes in chondron pellet culture were treated chronically (up to 14 days) with IL-1beta. Chondrons from OA articular cartilage were cultured for 3 weeks before treatment with IL-1beta (0.05-10 ng/ml) for an additional 2 weeks. Spontaneous release of NO and IL-1beta declined over the pretreatment period. In response to IL-1beta (0.1 ng/ml), NO and PGE(2) release was maximal on Day 2 or 3 and then declined to near basal level by Day 14. Synthesis was recovered by addition of 1 ng/ml IL-1beta on Day 11. Expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), detected by immunofluorescence, was elevated on Day 2 and declined through Day 14, which coordinated with the pattern of NO release. On the other hand, IL-1beta-induced MMP-13 synthesis was elevated on Day 3, declined on Day 5, and then increased again through Day 14. IL-1beta increased glucose consumption and lactate production throughout the treatment. IL-1beta stimulated proteoglycan degradation in the early days and inhibited proteoglycan synthesis through Day 14. Chondron pellet cultures from non-OA cartilage released the same amount of NO but produced less PGE(2) and MMP-13 in response to IL-1beta than OA cultures. Like the OA, IL-1beta-induced NO and PGE(2) release decreased over time. In conclusion, with prolonged exposure to IL-1beta, human chondrocytes develop selective tolerance involving NO and PGE(2) release but not MMP-13 production, metabolic activity, or matrix metabolism. 相似文献

Cultured monocytes and macrophages stimulated with LPS produce large quantities of proIL-1beta, but release little mature cytokine to the medium. The efficiency at which the procytokine is converted to its active 17-kDa species and released extracellularly is enhanced by treating cytokine-producing cells with a secretion stimulus such as ATP or nigericin. To determine whether this need for a secretion stimulus extends to blood, individual donors were bled twice daily for 4 consecutive days, and the collected blood samples were subjected to a two-step IL-1 production assay. LPS-activated blood samples generated cell-free IL-1beta, but levels of the extracellular cytokine were greatly increased by subsequent treatment with ATP or nigericin. Specificity and concentration requirements of the nucleotide triphosphate effect suggests a P2X(7) receptor involvement. Quantities of IL-1beta generated by an individual donor's blood in response to the LPS-only and LPS/ATP stimuli were relatively consistent over the 4-day period. Between donors, consistent differences in cytokine production capacity were observed. Blood samples treated with ATP also demonstrated enhanced IL-18 production, but TNF-alpha levels decreased. Among leukocytes, monocytes appeared to be the most affected cellular targets of the ATP stimulus. These studies indicate that an exogenous stimulus is required by blood for the efficient production of IL-1beta and IL-18, and suggest that circulating blood monocytes constitutively express a P2X(7)-like receptor. 相似文献

Preparations of lapine synovial 'chondrocyte activating factors' (CAF) were analyzed for the presence of individual cytokines which modulate the production of neutral metalloproteinases (NMPs) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) by articular chondrocytes. A combination of different biochemical analyses suggested that synovial fibroblasts secrete IL-1 alpha, which activated chondrocytes directly, bFGF, which potentiated the activity of IL-1, and TGF-beta 1, which produced a bivalent response. TGF-beta 1 suppressed NMP synthesis by chondrocytes, but enhanced PGE2 synthesis. The IL-1 receptor antagonist protein (IRAP) eliminated chondrocyte activation by IL-1, but only partially inhibited activation by CAF. Thus, CAF may contain a cytokine in addition to IL-1 which activates chondrocytes. This putative additional factor was more thermosensitive than IL-1, and had an apparent molecular weight of approx. 20,000 when estimated by size exclusion chromatography. Of a variety of purified cytokines tested for their ability to induce NMPs in chondrocytes, only IL-1 was active. This favours the possibility that the activity which resists suppression by IRAP reflects the presence of a novel cytokine. 相似文献

Human recombinant IL-1beta and TNFalpha have been previously used to induce a cytokine response in canine chondrocytes. In order to establish this functional relation in a homologous system in vitro, we have developed both 2D and 3D models of inflammatory arthritis using canine recombinant cytokines in canine articular chondrocytes. IL-1beta and TNFalpha were cloned and subsequently expressed in Escherichia coli. The purified recombinant canine cytokines were used to simulate inflammation in vitro and the expression of typical inflammation markers such as proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1beta, IL-6, IL-8, GM-CSF and TNFalpha), enzyme mediators (MMP-3 MMP-13, iNOS, COX-2) and their catabolites (NO, PGE(2)) was measured. High expression of proinflammatory cytokines, enzyme mediators and their catabolites was only observed in IL-1beta/TNFalpha stimulated cells. We conclude that the canine IL-1beta and TNFalpha generated in this study are biologically active and equally effective in the canine cell culture systems. Inducing an inflammatory pathway by canine exogenous cytokines in canine chondrocytes provides a useful tool for the study of canine inflammatory arthritis. 相似文献

Osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by articular cartilage degradation and joint inflammation. The purpose of the present study is to elucidate the role of the specific function of PRMT1 in chondrocytes and its association with the pathophysiology of OA. We observed that the expression of PRMT1 was apparently upregulated in OA cartilage, as well as in chondrocytes stimulated with IL-1β. Additionally, knockdown of PRMT1 suppressed interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β)-induced extracellular matrix (ECM) metabolic imbalance by regulating the expression of MMP-13, ADAMTS-5, COL2A1, and ACAN. Furthermore, silencing of PRMT1 dramatically declined the production of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and nitric oxide as well as the level of pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6 and TNF-α. Mechanistic analyses further revealed that IL-1β-induced activation of the Hedgehog/Gli-1 signaling is suppressed upon PRMT1 knockdown. However, the effects of inhibition of PRMT1-mediated IL-1β-induced cartilage matrix degradation and inflammatory response in OA chondrocytes were obviously abolished by Hedgehog agonist Purmorphamine (Pur). Our data collectively suggest that silencing of PRMT1 exerts anti-catabolic and anti-inflammatory effects on IL-1β-induced chondrocytes via suppressing the Gli-1 mediated Hedgehog signaling pathway, indicating that PRMT1 plays a critical role in OA development and serves as a promising therapeutic target for OA. 相似文献

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the involvement of cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and tyrosine kinase on prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production in human gingival fibroblasts stimulated by interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) and/or epidermal growth factor (EGF). The cytokine IL-1beta and to a lesser extent EGF, enhanced COX-2 mRNA levels in gingival fibroblasts. Simultaneous treatment with EGF and IL-1beta resulted in enhanced COX-2 mRNA levels accompanied by a synergistic stimulation of PGE2 biosynthesis compared to the cells treated with IL-1beta or EGF alone. Neither IL-1beta EGF nor the combination of IL-1beta and EGF enhanced COX-1 mRNA levels in gingival fibroblasts. The tyrosine kinase inhibitors, Herbimycin A and PD 153035 hydrochloride, reduced COX-2 mRNA levels as well as PGE2 production induced by IL-1beta or the combination of IL-1beta and EGF whereas COX-1 mRNA levels were not affected. Furthermore, the COX-2 specific inhibitor, NS-398, abolished the PGE2 production induced by IL-1beta, EGF, or the combination. These results indicate that the synergy between IL-1beta and EGF on PGE2 production is due to an enhanced gene expression of COX-2 and that tyrosine kinase(s) are involved in the signal transduction of COX-2 in gingival fibroblasts. 相似文献

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) ligands have been shown to inhibit the effects of proinflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta). This cytokine plays a key role in articular pathophysiologies by inducing the production of inflammatory mediators such as nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)). We previously demonstrated that 15d-PGJ(2) was more potent than troglitazone to counteract IL-1beta effects on chondrocytes. Here, we studied the action of 15d-PGJ(2) on intracellular targets in nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) signalling pathway in IL-1beta treated rat chondrocytes. We found that 15d-PGJ(2) decreased inhibitor kappaBalpha (IkappaBalpha) degradation but not its phosphorylation by specifically inhibiting IkappaB kinase beta (IKKbeta), but not IKKalpha, enzymatic activity. We further evaluated the involvement of PPARgamma in the anti-inflammatory action of its ligands. In chondrocytes overexpressing functional PPARgamma protein, 15d-PGJ(2) pre-treatment inhibited inducible NO synthase and COX-2 mRNA expression, nitrite and PGE(2) production, p65 translocation and NF-kappaB activation. Troglitazone or rosiglitazone pre-treatment had no effect. 15d-PGJ(2) exhibited the same effect in chondrocytes overexpressing mutated PPARgamma protein. These results suggest that 15d-PGJ(2) exerts its anti-inflammatory effect in rat chondrocytes by a PPARgamma-independent mechanism, which can be conferred to a partial inhibition of IkappaBalpha degradation. 相似文献

Olive pomace oil, also known as "orujo" olive oil, is a blend of refined-pomace oil and virgin olive oil, fit for human consumption. Maslinic acid, oleanolic acid, erythrodiol, and uvaol are pentacyclic triterpenes, found in the non-glyceride fraction of orujo oil, which have previously been reported to have anti-inflammatory properties. In the present work, we investigated the effect of these minor components on pro-inflammatory cytokine production by human peripheral blood mononuclear cells in six different samples. Uvaol, erythrodiol, and oleanolic acid significantly decreased IL-1beta and IL-6 production in a dose-dependent manner. All three compounds significantly reduced TNF-alpha production at 100microM; however, at 10microM, uvaol and oleanolic acid enhanced the generation of TNF-alpha. In contrast, maslinic acid did not significantly alter the concentration of those cytokines, with the exception of a slight inhibitory effect at 100microM. All four triterpenes inhibited production of I-309, at 50microM and 100microM. However, uvaol enhanced I-309 production at 10microM. The triterpenic dialcohols had a similar effect on MIG production. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that pentacyclic triterpenes in orujo oil exhibit pro- and anti-inflammatory properties depending on chemical structure and dose, and may be useful in modulating the immune response. 相似文献

Dynamic compression inhibits the synthesis of nitric oxide and PGE(2) by IL-1beta-stimulated chondrocytes cultured in agarose constructs 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Both mechanical loading and interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) are known to regulate metabolic processes in articular cartilage through pathways mediated by nitric oxide ((*)NO) and PGE(2). This study uses a well-characterized model system involving isolated chondrocytes cultured in agarose constructs to test the hypothesis that dynamic compression alters the synthesis of (*)NO and PGE(2) by IL-1beta-stimulated articular chondrocytes. The data presented demonstrate for the first time that dynamic compression counteracts the effects of IL-1beta on articular chondrocytes by suppressing both (*)NO and PGE(2) synthesis. Inhibitor experiments indicated that the dynamic compression-induced inhibition of PGE(2) synthesis and stimulation of proteoglycan synthesis were (*)NO mediated, while compression-induced stimulation of cell proliferation was (*)NO independent. The inhibition of (*)NO and PGE(2) by dynamic compression is a finding of major significance that could contribute to the development of novel strategies for the treatment of cartilage-degenerative disorders. 相似文献

Identification of ecto-nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphatase in human articular chondrocytes in monolayer culture 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
In cultured monolayers of human articular chondrocytes we have observed an enzyme activity which catalyzes the extracellular conversion of ATP to AMP and PPi. The enzyme was active at very low concentrations of ATP (microM) and exhibited optimal activity at concentrations of ATP of approx. 100 microM. The enzyme was active in intact cells as judged by measurement of the release of the cytoplasmic marker enzyme lactate dehydrogenase. No increase in production of PPi from ATP was observed on mechanically disrupting the cells and no activity was shed into the medium by intact cells. Activity was stable between days 4 and 8 after subculturing the cells and was not affected by the timing of the final medium change prior to assay. Activity was also observed with other nucleoside triphosphates (GTP, CTP and UTP). We suggest that this activity is attributable to ecto-nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphatase. This observation may be important in relation to the pathogenesis of the human disease of chondrocalcinosis in which crystals of calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate deposit in articular cartilage. 相似文献

Increased production of PGs by gestational membranes is believed to be a principal initiator of term and preterm labor. Intrauterine infection is associated with an inflammatory response in the choriodecidua characterized by elevated production of cytokines and PGs. The precise physiological significance of enhanced choriodecidual cytokine production in the mechanism of preterm labor remains uncertain. These studies were undertaken to dissect the roles and regulation of endogenous cytokines in regulating PG production by human choriodecidua. We used LPS treatment of human choriodecidual explants as our model system. In choriodecidual explant cultures, LPS (5 microg/ml) induced a rapid increase in TNF-alpha production, peaking at 4 h. In contrast, IL-10, IL-1beta, and PGE2 production rates peaked 8, 12, and 24 h, respectively, after LPS stimulation. Immunoneutralization studies indicated that TNF-alpha was a primary regulator of IL-1beta, IL-10, and PGE2 production, while IL-1beta stimulated only PGE2 production. Neutralization of endogenous IL-10 resulted in increased TNF-alpha and PGE2 production. IL-10 treatment markedly decreased TNF-alpha and IL-1beta production, but had no effect on PGE2 production. Taken together, these results demonstrate that the effects of LPS on choriodecidual cytokine and PG production are modulated by both positive and negative feedback loops. In the setting of an infection of the intrauterine, TNF-alpha may be a potential target for treatment intervention; IL-10 could be one such therapeutic. 相似文献

We have previously shown that green tea polyphenols inhibit the onset and severity of collagen II-induced arthritis in mice. In the present study, we report the pharmacological effects of green tea polyphenol epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), on interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta)-induced expression and activity of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in human chondrocytes derived from osteoarthritis (OA) cartilage. Stimulation of human chondrocytes with IL-1 beta (5 ng/ml) for 24 h resulted in significantly enhanced production of nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) when compared to untreated controls (p <.001). Pretreament of human chondrocytes with EGCG showed a dose-dependent inhibition in the production of NO and PGE(2) by 48% and 24%, respectively, and correlated with the inhibition of iNOS and COX-2 activities (p <.005). In addition, IL-1 beta-induced expression of iNOS and COX-2 was also markedly inhibited in human chondrocytes pretreated with EGCG (p <.001). Parallel to these findings, EGCG also inhibited the IL-1 beta-induced LDH release in chondrocytes cultures. Overall, the study suggests that EGCG affords protection against IL-1 beta-induced production of catabolic mediators NO and PGE(2) in human chondrocytes by regulating the expression and catalytic activity of their respective enzymes. Furthermore, our results also indicate that ECGC may be of potential therapeutic value for inhibiting cartilage resorption in arthritic joints. 相似文献
