IL-27 is a heterodimeric cytokine bridging innate and adaptive immunity by playing a role in the activation of naive T cells and in development of Th1 cells. Additionally, recent evidence supports a role for IL-27 in the activation of monocytic cells. Both pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory activities have been attributed to IL-27; however, the role played by IL-27 in the activation of human monocytic cells in terms of cytokine production has not been well described. Our results show that IL-27 is a strong inducer of proinflammatory cytokine and chemokine expression, including enhancement of IL-6, IP-10, MIP-1α, MIP-1β, and TNF-α expression in human primary monocytes. Furthermore, we observed that IL-27-induced cytokine and chemokine production was mediated by STAT1, STAT3, and NF-κB activation. Understanding how IL-27 exerts its effects on monocytic cells will identify important molecular mechanisms in the regulation of immune responses, particularly in the modulation of monocyte activation. 相似文献

IL-27 induces stronger proliferation of naive than memory human B cells and CD4(+) T cells. In B cells, this differential response is associated with similar levels of IL-27 receptor chains, IL-27Rα and gp130, in both subsets and stronger STAT1 and STAT3 activation by IL-27 in naive B cells. Here, we show that the stronger proliferative response of CD3-stimulated naive CD4(+) T cells to IL-27 is associated with lower levels of IL-27Rα but higher levels of gp130 compared with memory CD4(+) T cells. IL-27 signaling differs between naive and memory CD4(+) T cells, as shown by more sustained STAT1, -3, and -5 activation and weaker activation of SHP-2 in naive CD4(+) T cells. In the latter, IL-27 increases G0/G1 to S phase transition, cell division and, in some cases, cell survival. IL-27 proliferative effect on naive CD4(+) T cells is independent of MAPK, but is dependent on c-Myc and Pim-1 induction by IL-27 and is associated with induction of cyclin D2, cyclin D3, and CDK4 by IL-27 in a c-Myc and Pim-1-dependent manner. In BCR-stimulated naive B cells, IL-27 only increases entry in the S phase and induces the expression of Pim-1 and of cyclins A, D2, and D3. In these cells, inhibition of Pim-1 inhibits IL-27 effect on proliferation and cyclin induction. Altogether, these data indicate that IL-27 mediates proliferation of naive CD4(+) T cells and B cells through induction of both common and distinct sets of cell cycle regulators. 相似文献

Suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS)3 belongs to a family of proteins that are known to exert important functions as inducible feedback inhibitors and are crucial for the balance of immune responses. There is evidence for a deregulated immune response in chronic inflammatory skin diseases. Thus, it was the aim of this study to investigate the regulation of SOCS proteins involved in intracellular signaling pathways occurring during inflammatory skin diseases and analyze their impact on the course of inflammatory responses. Because we and others have previously described that the cytokine IL-27 has an important impact on the chronic manifestation of inflammatory skin diseases, we focused here on the signaling induced by IL-27 in human primary keratinocytes compared with autologous blood-derived macrophages. Here, we demonstrate that SOCS3 is critically involved in regulating the cell-specific response to IL-27. SOCS3 was found to be significantly up-regulated by IL-27 in macrophages but not in keratinocytes. Other STAT3-activating cytokines investigated, including IL-6, IL-22, and oncostatin M, also failed to up-regulate SOCS3 in keratinocytes. Lack of SOCS3 up-regulation in skin epithelial cells was accompanied by prolonged STAT1 and STAT3 phosphorylation and enhanced CXCL10 production upon IL-27 stimulation compared with macrophages. Overexpression of SOCS3 in keratinocytes significantly diminished this enhanced CXCL10 production in response to IL-27. We conclude from our data that keratinocytes have a cell type-specific impaired capacity to up-regulate SOCS3 which may crucially determine the course of chronic inflammatory skin diseases. 相似文献

It is widely accepted that impairment of the intestinal epithelial barrier from HIV/AIDS contributes significantly to microbial translocation and systemic immune activation. Such factors present potential targets for novel treatments aimed toward a functional cure. However, the extracellular mechanisms of intestinal barrier repair are poorly understood. In the current study, we investigated the abilities of IL-17A and IL-17F to repair the damaged barrier caused by HIV-1 gp140 using Caco-2 monolayers. It was found that HIV-1 gp140 downregulated the expression of tight junction-associated genes and disrupted the barrier integrity of Caco-2 monolayers. However, IL-17A and IL-17F treatment reversed the HIV-1 gp140-induced barrier dysfunction by upregulating the expression of tight junction-associated genes, the combination of which resulted in a stronger induction of barrier repair. Furthermore, the effects of IL-17A and IL-17F were reduced by downregulation of Act1 with siRNA and inhibition of NF-κB and MAPK pathways with BAY11-7082 and U0126, respectively. These data indicated that the NF-κB and MAPK pathways are involved in the repair of barrier integrity mediated by IL-17A and IL-17F, and IL-17 pathways are potential targets for gut barrier restoration therapies during HIV/AIDS. 相似文献

Antiproliferative activity of IL-27 on melanoma. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Takayuki Yoshimoto Noriko Morishima Izuru Mizoguchi Motomu Shimizu Hiroshi Nagai Shuntaro Oniki Masahiro Oka Chikako Nishigori Junichiro Mizuguchi 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》2008,180(10):6527-6535
IL-27 is a member of the IL-6/IL-12 family and activates both STAT1 and STAT3 through its receptor, which consists of WSX-1 and gp130. We previously demonstrated that IL-27 has potent antitumor activities, which are mediated through CD8(+) T cells, NK cells, or its own antiangiogenic activity. In this study, we demonstrate that IL-27 also possesses a direct antiproliferative activity on melanoma. Although WSX-1 expression was hardly detected in parental mouse melanoma B16F10 cells, IL-27 activated STAT1 and STAT3 and up-regulated MHC class I in B16F10 transfectants expressing wild-type WSX-1. In contrast, IL-27 failed to activate STAT1 and up-regulate MHC class I in those expressing mutant WSX-1, in which the putative STAT1-binding Tyr-609 of the cytoplasmic region was replaced by Phe. IL-27 inhibited the tumor growth of transfectants expressing wild-type WSX-1 in a dose-dependent manner. IL-27 augmented the expression of IFN regulatory factor (IRF)-1 and IRF-8, which possess tumor suppressor activities, in B16F10 transfectants expressing wild-type WSX-1. Down-regulation of IRF-1 but not IRF-8 with small interfering RNA partially blocked the IL-27-induced growth inhibition. A small, but significant, direct antiproliferative effect of IL-27 was also observed in vivo. Moreover, several human melanoma cells were revealed to express both IL-27 receptor subunits, and activation of STAT1 and STAT3 and growth inhibition by IL-27 were detected. These results suggest that IL-27 has an antiproliferative activity on melanomas through WSX-1/STAT1 signaling. Thus, IL-27 may be an attractive candidate as an antitumor agent applicable to cancer immunotherapy. 相似文献

Many studies have identified and described various medicinal effects of cirsiliol. Here, we investigated the signaling pathway involved in the anti-inflammatory effects of cirsiliol on IL-6-induced activity. Cirsiliol showed no cytotoxicity and inhibited pSTAT3-induced luciferase activity. At the molecular level, cirsiliol suppressed the expression of IL-6-induced inflammatory marker genes such as CRP, IL-1β, ICAM-1 and SOCS3, IL-6-induced activation of Jak2, gp130, STAT3 and ERK and nuclear translocation of STAT3, as measured by PCR, immunofluorescence staining and western blot analysis. However, the interaction between IL-6 and its receptor was not affected by cirsiliol treatment. These results indicate that cirsiliol attenuates IL-6-induced cellular signaling by regulating Jak2 phosphorylation. Therefore, cirsiliol could be a therapeutic agent for IL-6-related inflammatory diseases. 相似文献

Background
Guanylyl Cyclase C (GCC) signaling via uroguanylin (UGN) and guanylin activation is a critical mediator of intestinal fluid homeostasis, intestinal cell proliferation/apoptosis, and tumorigenesis. As a mechanism for some of these effects, we hypothesized that GCC signaling mediates regulation of intestinal barrier function.Methodology/Principal Findings
Paracellular permeability of intestinal segments was assessed in wild type (WT) and GCC deficient (GCC−/−) mice with and without lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge, as well as in UGN deficient (UGN−/−) mice. IFNγ and myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) levels were determined by real time PCR. Expression of tight junction proteins (TJPs), phosphorylation of myosin II regulatory light chain (MLC), and STAT1 activation were examined in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) and intestinal mucosa. The permeability of Caco-2 and HT-29 IEC monolayers, grown on Transwell filters was determined in the absence and presence of GCC RNA interference (RNAi). We found that intestinal permeability was increased in GCC−/− and UGN−/− mice compared to WT, accompanied by increased IFNγ levels, MLCK and STAT1 activation in IECs. LPS challenge promotes greater IFNγ and STAT1 activation in IECs of GCC−/− mice compared to WT mice. Claudin-2 and JAM-A expression were reduced in GCC deficient intestine; the level of phosphorylated MLC in IECs was significantly increased in GCC−/− and UGN−/− mice compared to WT. GCC knockdown induced MLC phosphorylation, increased permeability in IEC monolayers under basal conditions, and enhanced TNFα and IFNγ-induced monolayer hyperpermeability.Conclusions/Significance
GCC signaling plays a protective role in the integrity of the intestinal mucosal barrier by regulating MLCK activation and TJ disassembly. GCC signaling activation may therefore represent a novel mechanism in maintaining the small bowel barrier in response to injury. 相似文献9.
IL-27 activates human monocytes via STAT1 and suppresses IL-10 production but the inflammatory functions of IL-27 are abrogated by TLRs and p38 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
IL-27 is a member of the IL-12 family of cytokines that activates the Jak-STAT signaling pathway in a context-dependent manner and has pleiotropic effects on acquired immunity. IL-27 has the capacity to promote early stages of Th1 generation, but recent evidence has suggested a predominant suppressive effect on Th1, Th2, and Th17 differentiation. Although modest suppressive effects of IL-27 on myeloid lineage cells have been observed, there is limited knowledge about the role of IL-27 in the regulation of innate immunity. In this study we report that although in resting murine macrophages IL-27 had minimal if any effects, in resting human monocytes IL-27 had profound proinflammatory functions. IL-27 activated a STAT1-dominant pattern of signaling in human monocytes with the consequent activation of STAT1-dependent inflammatory target genes. IL-27 primed monocytes for augmented responses to TLR stimulation in a STAT1-dependent manner, altered IL-10 signaling, and attenuated IL-10-induced gene expression. Strikingly, IL-27 strongly suppressed TLR-induced IL-10 production in human monocytes. However, the proinflammatory effects of IL-27 on human monocytes were rapidly abrogated by LPS via a p38-mediated mechanism that inhibited IL-27 signaling. Our findings identify a predominantly proinflammatory function for IL-27 in human monocytes and suggest a mechanism by which the activating effects of IL-27 on innate immunity are attenuated as an immune response proceeds and IL-27 transitions to predominantly suppressive effects on acquired immunity. 相似文献

IL-27 is a novel IL-12 family member that plays a role in the early regulation of Th1 initiation, induces proliferation of naive CD4+ T cells, and synergizes with IL-12 in IFN-gamma production. It has been recently reported that IL-27 induces T-bet and IL-12Rbeta2 expression through JAK1/STAT1 activation. In the present study, we further investigated the JAK/STAT signaling molecules activated by IL-27 and also the role of STAT1 in IL-27-mediated responses using STAT1-deficient mice. In addition to JAK1 and STAT1, IL-27-activated JAK2, tyrosine kinase-2, and STAT2, -3, and -5 in naive CD4+ T cells. The activation of STAT2 and STAT5, but not of STAT3, was greatly diminished in STAT1-deficient naive CD4+ T cells. Comparable proliferative response to IL-27 was observed between STAT1-deficient and wild-type naive CD4+ T cells. In contrast, IL-27 hardly induced T-bet and subsequent IL-12Rbeta2 expression, and synergistic IFN-gamma production by IL-27 and IL-12 was impaired in STAT1-deficient naive CD4+ T cells. Moreover, IL-27 augmented the expression of MHC class I on naive CD4+ T cells in a STAT1-dependent manner. These results suggest that IL-27 activates JAK1 and -2, tyrosine kinase-2, STAT1, -2, -3, and -5 in naive CD4+ T cells and that STAT1 plays an indispensable role in IL-27-induced T-bet and subsequent IL-12Rbeta2 expression and MHC class I expression as well but not proliferation, while STAT3 presumably plays an important role in IL-27-induced proliferation. 相似文献

Complement factor H (CFH) is a central regulator of the complement system and has been implicated in the etiology of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a leading cause of blindness in the elderly. In view of previous studies showing that reduced expression of CFH in the retina is a risk factor for developing AMD, there is significant interest in understanding how CFH expression is regulated in the retina. In this study, we have shown that the anti-inflammatory cytokine, IL-27, induced CFH expression in mouse retinal cells and human retinal pigmented epithelial cells (RPE) through STAT1-mediated up-regulation of Interferon Regulatory Factor-1 (IRF-1) and IRF-8. We further show that cells in the ganglion and inner-nuclear layers of the retina constitutively express IRF-1 and IRF-8 and enhanced CFH expression in the retina during ocular inflammation correlated with significant increase in the expression of IRF-1, IRF-8 and IL-27 (IL-27p28 and Ebi3). Our data thus reveal a novel role of IL-27 in regulating complement activation through up-regulation of CFH and suggest that defects in IL-27 signaling or expression may contribute to the reduction of CFH expression in the retina of patients with AMD. 相似文献

IL-27, a member of the IL-6/IL-12 family, activates both STAT1 and STAT3 through its receptor, which consists of WSX-1 and gp130 subunits, resulting in augmentation of Th1 differentiation and suppression of proinflammatory cytokine production. In the present study, we investigated the role of STAT3 in the IL-27-mediated immune functions. IL-27 induced phosphorylation of STAT1, -2, -3 and -5 in wild-type naive CD4+ T cells, but failed to induce that of STAT3 and STAT5 in STAT3-deficient cohorts. IL-27 induced not only proinflammatory responses including up-regulation of ICAM-1, T-box expressed in T cells, and IL-12Rbeta2 and Th1 differentiation, but also anti-inflammatory responses including suppression of proinflammatory cytokine production such as IL-2, IL-4, and IL-13 even in STAT3-deficient naive CD4+ T cells. In contrast, IL-27 augmented c-Myc and Pim-1 expression and induced cell proliferation in wild-type naive CD4+ T cells but not in STAT3-deficient cohorts. Moreover, IL-27 failed to activate STAT3, augment c-Myc and Pim-1 expression, and induce cell proliferation in pro-B BaF/3 transfectants expressing mutant gp130, in which the putative STAT3-binding four Tyr residues in the YXXQ motif of the cytoplasmic region was replaced by Phe. These results suggest that STAT3 is activated through gp130 by IL-27 and is indispensable to IL-27-mediated cell proliferation but not to IL-27-induced Th1 differentiation and suppression of proinflammatory cytokine production. Thus, IL-27 may be a cytokine, which activates both STAT1 and STAT3 through distinct receptor subunits, WSX-1 and gp130, respectively, to mediate its individual immune functions. 相似文献

The pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis (UC) is unclear, while genetic factors have been confirmed to play an important role in its development. P2RY13 is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCRs), which are involved in the pathogenesis of inflammation and immune disorders. According to GEO database analysis, we first observed that the expression of P2Y13 was increased in UC patients. Therefore, we sought to determine the role of P2Y13 in the development of colitis. Our data showed that P2RY13 was highly expressed in the inflamed intestinal tissues of UC patients. In mice, pharmacological antagonism of P2Y13 can significantly attenuate the intestinal mucosal barrier disruption. In LPS-induced NCM460 cell, knockdown or pharmacological inhibition of P2RY13 increased the expression of intestinal tight junction protein and reduced apoptosis. In addition, we found that the effect of P2Y13 on colitis is related to the activation of the IL-6/STAT3 pathway. Activation of P2Y13 increases IL-6 expression and promotes STAT3 phosphorylation and nuclear transport. Deletion of the STAT3 gene in the intestinal epithelial cells of mice significantly mitigated the exacerbation of colitis due to P2Y13 activation. Thus, P2Y13 can aggravate intestinal mucosal barrier destruction by activating the IL-6/STAT3 pathway. P2Y13 might be a potential drug target for UC. 相似文献

IL-27 induces Th1 differentiation via p38 MAPK/T-bet- and intercellular adhesion molecule-1/LFA-1/ERK1/2-dependent pathways 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

IL-27, a novel member of the IL-6/IL-12 family, activates both STAT1 and STAT3 through its receptor, which consists of WSX-1 and gp130 subunits, resulting in positive and negative regulations of immune responses. We recently demonstrated that IL-27 induces Th1 differentiation through ICAM-1/LFA-1 interaction in a STAT1-dependent, but T-bet-independent mechanism. In this study, we further investigated the molecular mechanisms by focusing on p38 MAPK and ERK1/2. IL-27-induced Th1 differentiation was partially inhibited by lack of T-bet expression or by blocking ICAM-1/LFA-1 interaction with anti-ICAM-1 and/or anti-LFA-1, and further inhibited by both. Similarly, the p38 MAPK inhibitor, SB203580, or the inhibitor of ERK1/2 phosphorylation, PD98059, partially suppressed IL-27-induced Th1 differentiation and the combined treatment completely suppressed it. p38 MAPK was then revealed to be located upstream of T-bet, and SB203580, but not PD98059, inhibited T-bet-dependent Th1 differentiation. In contrast, ERK1/2 was shown to be located downstream of ICAM-1/LFA-1, and PD98059, but not SB203580, inhibited ICAM-1/LFA-1-dependent Th1 differentiation. Furthermore, it was demonstrated that STAT1 is important for IL-27-induced activation of ERK1/2, but not p38 MAPK, and that IL-27 directly induces mRNA expression of growth arrest and DNA damage-inducible 45gamma, which is known to mediate activation of p38 MAPK. Finally, IL-12Rbeta2 expression was shown to be up-regulated by IL-27 in both T-bet- and ICAM-1/LFA-1-dependent mechanisms. Taken together, these results suggest that IL-27 induces Th1 differentiation via two distinct pathways, p38 MAPK/T-bet- and ICAM-1/LFA-1/ERK1/2-dependent pathways. This is in contrast to IL-12, which induces it via only p38 MAPK/T-bet-dependent pathway. 相似文献

IL-22 is produced by activated T cells and signals through a receptor complex consisting of IL-22R1 and IL-10R2. The aim of this study was to analyze IL-22 receptor expression, signal transduction, and specific biological functions of this cytokine system in intestinal epithelial cells (IEC). Expression studies were performed by RT-PCR. Signal transduction was analyzed by Western blot experiments, cell proliferation by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium assay and Fas-induced apoptosis by flow cytometry. IEC migration was studied in wounding assays. The IEC lines Caco-2, DLD-1, SW480, HCT116, and HT-29 express both IL-22 receptor subunits IL-22R1 and IL-10R2. Stimulation with TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, and LPS significantly upregulated IL-22R1 without affecting IL-10R2 mRNA expression. IL-22 binding to its receptor complex activates STAT1/3, Akt, ERK1/2, and SAPK/JNK MAP kinases. IL-22 significantly increased cell proliferation (P = 0.002) and phosphatidylinsitol 3-kinase-dependent IEC cell migration (P < 0.00001) as well as mRNA expression of TNF-alpha, IL-8, and human beta-defensin-2. IL-22 had no effect on Fas-induced apoptosis. IL-22 mRNA expression was increased in inflamed colonic lesions of patients with Crohn's disease and correlated highly with the IL-8 expression in these lesions (r = 0.840). Moreover, IL-22 expression was increased in murine dextran sulfate sodium-induced colitis. IEC express functional receptors for IL-22, which increases the expression of proinflammatory cytokines and promotes the innate immune response by increased defensin expression. Moreover, our data indicate intestinal barrier functions for this cytokine-promoting IEC migration, which suggests an important function in intestinal inflammation and wound healing. IL-22 is increased in active Crohn's disease and promotes proinflammatory gene expression and IEC migration. 相似文献
