A comparative study was done using J774A.1 and J774A. 1-derived transfected cells (J774A.1 C.1) containing antisense tumor
necrosis factor α (TNF-α) plasmid to determine the role of endogenous TNF-α on nitric oxide production as well as on the growth
ofMycobacterium microti in interferon γ (IFN-γ)- and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated cells. On stimulation with IFN-γ and LPS a higher level of
NO was observed in J774A.1 cells compared to J774A.1 C.1 which indicated that endogenous TNF-α is required for the production
of NO. Comparing the effect of IFN-γ and LPS on the intracellular growth ofM. microti, the growth-reducing activity was higher in J774A.1 cells than in J774A.1 C.1 cells and was not completely abrogated in the
presence of the nitric oxide inhibitorN
G-methyl-l-arginine (l-NMA). J774A.1 C.1 cells infected withM. microti produced a significant amount of NO when exogenous TNF-α was added along with IFN-γ and LPS and the concentration of intracellular
bacteria decreased almost to that in IFN-γ and LPS treated parental J774A.1 cells. Addition of exogenous TNF-α even in the
presence ofl-NMA in J774.1 C.1 cells could also partially restore intracellular growth inhibition ofM. microti caused by IFN-γ and LPS. TNF-α is probably required for the production of NO in J774A.1 cells by IFN-γ and LPS but TNF-α
and NO are independently involved in the killing of intracellularM. microti with IFN-γ and LPS. 相似文献

Human glioblastoma cells secrete a factor termed glioblastoma derived T cell suppressor factor (G-TsF) or transforming growth factor beta 2 (TGF-beta 2) which inhibits the response of T cells to mitogenic or antigenic stimulation. In the present study we isolated the promoter region of the G-TsF/TGF-beta 2 gene. The promoter region shares no homology to the promoter of the TGF-beta 1 or the 5' region of the TGF-beta 3 gene and harbours several familiar DNA motifs, including the cytokine-1 region, an octamer-like sequence, Sp1- and AP-2-like elements and a putative NF-kappa B site. In contrast to the TGF-beta 1 gene, the G-TsF/TGF-beta 2 gene contains three TATA-like sequences but lacks an AP-1 site. To understand the cell type specificity of expression of G-TsF/TGF-beta 2, the individual contribution of the DNA elements detected in the promoter has to be analysed in further studies. 相似文献

The tumor promoter phorbol 13-myristate 12-acetate (PMA), the best characterized protein kinase C agonist, frequently regulates gene expression via activation of Fos/Jun (AP-1) complexes. PMA rapidly and transiently induces prostaglandin G/H synthase-2 (PGHS-2) expression in murine osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells, but no functional AP-1 binding motifs in the 5'-flanking region have been identified. In MC3T3-E1 cells transfected with -371/+70 bp of the PGHS-2 gene fused to a luciferase reporter gene (Pluc), PMA stimulates luciferase activity up to eightfold. Computer analysis of the sequence of the PGHS-2 promoter region identified three potential AP-1 elements in the -371/+70 bp region, and deletion analysis suggested that the sequence 5'-aGAGTCA-3' at -69/-63 bp was most likely to mediate stimulation by PMA. Mutation of the putative AP-1 sequence reduces the ability of PMA to stimulate Pluc activity by 65%. On electrophoretic mobility shift analysis (EMSA), PMA induces binding to a PGHS-2 probe spanning this sequence, binding is blocked by an unlabeled AP-1 canonical sequence, and antibodies specific for c-Jun and c-Fos inhibit binding. Mutation of this AP-1 site also causes a small (22%) but significant reduction in the serum stimulation of Pluc activity in transiently transfected MC3T3-E1 cells. On EMSA, serum induces binding to a PGHS-2 probe spanning the AP-1 site, binding is blocked by an unlabeled AP-1 canonical sequence, and antibodies specific for c-Jun and c-Fos inhibit binding. Joint mutation of this AP-1 site and the nearby CRE site at -56/-52 bp, previously shown to mediate serum, v-src and PDGF induction of PGHS-2 in NIH-3T3 cells, blocks both PMA and serum induction of Pluc activity in MC3T3-E1 cells. Hence, the AP-1 and CRE binding sites are jointly but differentially involved in both the PMA and serum stimulation of PGHS-2 promoter activity. 相似文献

Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides enhance CD14 endocytosis of LPS and promote TLR4 signal transduction of cytokine expression 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

We have previously reported that a well-characterized glycoprotein fraction containing fucose residues in an extract of Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides (EORP) exerts certain immuno-modulation activity by stimulating the expression of inflammatory cytokines via TLR4. Continuing our studies, we have demonstrated that EORP increases the surface expression of CD14 and TLR4 within murine macrophages J774A.1 cells in vitro, and further promotes LPS binding and uptake by J774A.1 cells in a CD14-dependent fashion. Moreover, we observed the co-localization of internalized LPS with lysosome- and Golgi-apparatus markers within 5 min after J774A.1 cells stimulated with LPS. In addition, EORP pretreatment of J774A.1 cells and human blood-derived primary macrophages, followed by LPS stimulation, results in the super-induction of interleukin-1beta (IL-1) expression. Endocytosis inhibitors: such as cytochalasin D and colchicine effectively block EORP-enhanced LPS internalization by J774A.1 cells; yet they fail to decrease the LPS-induced phosphorylation of certain mitogen-activated protein kinases, and IL-1 mRNA and proIL-1 protein expression, indicating that LPS internalization by J774A.1 cells is not associated with LPS-dependent activation. Our current results could provide a potential EORP-associated protection mechanism for bacteria infection by enhancing IL-1 expression and the clearance of contaminated LPS by macrophages. 相似文献
