IκB is an inhibitor of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) and presents in the majority of cells. Eight structurally related members of the mammalian IκB family have been described:IκBα, IκBβ, IκBε, Bcl-3, IκBγ, IκBδ, p100 and p105. The ankyrin repeat domain of IκB can interact with NF-κB, and sequester NF-κB in the cytoplasm as inactive complexes. Most recently, IκBα has been found to inhibit p53 tumor suppressor protein by binding p53 to form a cytoplasmic p53·IκBα complex and studies have shown that p100 profoundly sensitizes cells to death-receptor-mediated apoptosis. The current review is to describe the members of IκB family, their related signaling pathways, and their application in tumor therapy.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of burn sera on IκBα degradation, NF-κB activation in peripheral blood monocytes (PBMCs) in order to explore the role of burn sera on activation of monocytes. METHODS: PBMCs isolated from healthy volunteers were stimulated by sera from healthy volunteers and burn patients and by burn sera together with PDTC (pyrrolidine dithioncarbamate). Activation of monocytic NF-κB was tested by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) and the degradation of monocytic IκBα was determined by Western blotting. RESULTS: When compared to that in control group, cytosolic IκBα degradation occurred within 30 min after PBMCs stimulated by burn sera, and peaked at 60 min. But IκBα gradually recovered in the cytoplasm after 2 h of stimulation. Meanwhile, activity of monocytic NF-κB was markedly increased, reached the peak at 30 min to 60 min after stimulation, and gradually decreased after 2 h of stimulation. PDTC (an antioxidants) effectively inhibited the monocytic IκBα degradation and activation of NF-κB induced by burn sera. CONCLUSION: Burn sera might induce the degradation of IκBα, then activate NF-κB, which ultimately lead to the secretion of cytokines from the monocytes.  相似文献

AIM:To investigate the effects of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 ［1,25-(OH)2D3］ on nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathway in passively sensitized human airway smooth muscle cells (HASMCs). METHODS:HASMCs were passively sensitized with 10% serum from asthmatic patients. 1,25-(OH)2D3 was used as an interfering factor. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) was used to detect the DNA-binding activity of NF-κB. Immunocytochemical staining was used to observe the nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65. Western blotting was used for IκBα and phosphorylated IκBα protein detection. Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to determine vitamin D receptor (VDR), vitamin D 24-hydroxylase (CYP24) and IκBα mRNA expression. The mRNA expression of IκBα in HASMCs after actinomycin D treatment was also determined. RESULTS:(1) 1,25-(OH)2D3 significantly attenuated the DNA-binding activity of NF-κB and the nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65 in HASMCs passively sensitized by asthmatic serum. (2) 1,25-(OH)2D3 enhanced IκBα mRNA stability and inhibited IκBα protein phosphorylation in passively sensitized HASMCs, thus increasing IκBα expression in these HASMCs. (3) 1,25-(OH)2D3 up-regulated VDR mRNA level and evoked its functional response in passively sensitized HASMCs. CONCLUSION: 1,25-(OH)2D3 enhanced the expression of IκBα and therefore inhibited NF-κB signaling passway in HASMCs. This effect may be dependent on VDR, and responsible for the inhibitory effect of 1,25-(OH)2D3 on passively sensitized HASMCs.  相似文献

AIM:To investigate the effect of capsaicin on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced activation of cultured endothelial cells of mouse aorta in vitro. METHODS:The endothelial cells were isolated from mouse aorta and cultured in vitro, and the specific cell markers of the cells were identified by immunofluorescence staining. The cells were stimulated with LPS (100 μg/L) combined with or without capsaicin, and the cells and supernatant were collected at 12 h, 24 h and 48 h. The levels of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (sICAM-1), soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (sVCAM-1) and soluble P-selectin (sP-selectin) in the supernatant were measured by ELISA. The levels of nuclear NF-κB p65 and cytopasmic p-IκBα and IκBα were detected by Western blotting. RESULTS:Compared with control group, the levels of sP-selectin, sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in LPS group were significantly increased (P<0.05), and LPS promoted the expression of sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in a time-dependent manner. Compared with LPS group at the same time point, capsaicin inhibited the expression of sP-selectin, sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in a dose-dependent manner. Compared with control group, the protein levels of NF-κB p65 and p-IκBα in LPS group at 24 h were significantly increased (P<0.05), while the protein level of IκBα in LPS group at 24 h were significantly decreased (P<0.05). Compared with LPS group, capsaicin decreased the protein levels of NF-κB p65 and p-IκBα and increased the protein level of IκBα in a dose-dependent manner. CONCLUSION: Capsaicin has a protective effect on LPS-induced vascular endothelial cell activation, which potentially contributes to the suppression of IκBα degradation and NF-κB p65 nuclear translocation.  相似文献

AIM: To observe the effects of diterpenoid C from ether extract of Radix Curcumae (RC) on the activity of nuclear factor-κB in human gastric adenocarcinoma SGC7901 cells stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). METHODS: SGC7901 cells were normally cultured, induced by LPS, or treated with LPS plus RC. The protein expression of IKKα, IKKβ, p65, phosphorylated p65 and phosphorylated IκBα was assayed by Western blotting. NF-κB DNA binding activity was determined by electrophoretic mobility shift assay. RESULTS: RC reduced the protein expression of IKKα, IKKβ, p65, phosphorylated p65 and phosphorylated IκBα induced by LPS. NF-κB DNA binding activity increased much greatly by LPS stimulation, while RC resisted the action of LPS. CONCLUSION: RC may attenuate the secretion of inflammatory cytokines by inhibiting the activation of NF-κB signaling pathway.  相似文献

AIM: To observe the effects of TNF-α/nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)/matrix metalloproteinase-2(MMP-2) pathway on the expression of MMP-2 in the mice with viral myocarditis. METHODS: Six-week-old inbred male mice were randomly assigned to control and myocarditis group. The mice in myocarditis group and control group were intraperitoneally inoculated with 0.1 mL 10-5.69 TCID50/mL coxsackievirus B3 and vehicle (PBS), respectively. Ten mice were sacrificed at the 4th and 10th days after injection. The blood and heart specimens were harvested. The serum content of TNF-α was measured by ELISA. The myocardial levels of MMP-2, NF-κB p65 and IκBα were determined by Western blot. RESULTS: Compared with control group, the protein expression of MMP-2 and NF-κB p65 in the myocardium and the serum content of TNF-α were significantly increased in myocarditis group (P<0.05). The protein expression of IκBα was lower in myocarditis group than that in control group (P<0.05).CONCLUSION: TNF-α, NF-κB p65 and MMP-2 were higher in the mice with acute viral myocarditis. The increased expression of them might be involved in the pathogenesis of viral myocarditis.  相似文献

AIM:To examine whether Akt signal pathway proteins, including Akt, NF-κB and IκBα, are activated in kidney tissue of murine chronic graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) lupus nephritis in vivo, and whether prednisone suppresses activation of them.METHODS:Akt activity and phosphorylated IκBα were detected by Western-blot. Activation of NF-κB was detected by electropheretic mobility shift assay (EMSA). RESULTS:Activity of Akt, NF-κB and phosphorylated IκBα were significantly increased in kidney tissue of murine chronic graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) in 8th week and 12th week after monocell injection, respectively. However, they were no significant elevation in 16th week, when compared with controls. Prednisone treatment significantly prevented the increase in serum anti-dsDNA antibody level, urinary protein excretion and glomerular cell proliferation in GvHD mice, indicating the beneficial effects of prednisone on this model. Prednisone also significantly suppressed the increase in the activities of glomerular Akt, NF-κB and phosphorylated IκBα. CONCLUSION:This study provides the first evidence of marked increase in glomerular Akt-NF-κB signal pathway activities in murine chronic graft-versus-host disease lupus nephritis. The beneficial effect of prednisone on this lupus nephritis model may be partially mediated by the suppression of abnormal Akt- NF-κB activation.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the role of NF-κB/IκB signal pathway in the regulation of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression in human mesangial cells (HMC). METHODS: The PGE2 concentration in supernatants of HMC was measured by radioimmunoassay. COX-2 mRNA and protein expression were determined by RT-PCR and Western blot. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) and Western blot were used to detect the activity of NF-κB and degradation of IκB. RESULTS: IL-1β significantly upregulated COX-2 expression and PGE2 production in HMC. Significant up-regulation of NF-κB activation, nuclear translocation of p65 subunit, and degradation of IκB α and IκB β were observed in IL-1β-induced HMC. CONCLUSION: Expression of COX-2 in IL-1β-induced HMC is mediated by NF-κB/IκB signal pathway.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of linarin (LIN) on the migration and invasion abilities of human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells and its underlying mechanism. METHODS: MCF-7, MDA-MB-231 and MCF-10A cells were cultured in vitro and treated with LIN at 5, 10, 20, 40, 80 and 160 μmol/L for 24 h, and the cell proliferation was measured by CCK-8 assay and colony formation assay. The protein levels of Snail, E-cadherin, matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), IκBα, p-IKKα/β and p-p65 were determined by Western blot. RESULTS: LIN remarkably reduced the viability of MDA-MB-231 cells in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.05), and the IC50 was 55.89 μmol/L for 24 h. LIN decreased the colony formation rate of MDA-MB-231 cells at the concentration of 20 μmol/L (P<0.05). After exposed to LIN at 5 μmol/L and 10 μmol/L for 24 h, the migration and invasion abilities of the MDA-MB-231 cells were significantly reduced (P<0.05), the protein expression levels of E-cadherin and IκBα were up-regulated (P<0.05), the protein expression levels of Snail and MMP-9 were down-regulated (P<0.05), and the phosphorylation levels of IKKα/β and p65 were decreased (P<0.05) in comparison with the control group. Meanwhile, IKK-16 (IKKα/β inhibitor) and PDTC (NF-κB inhibitor) also down-regulated the protein expression levels of Snail and MMP-9 (P<0.05), and up-regulated the protein expression level of E-cadherin (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: LIN down-regulates the protein expression levels of Snail and MMP-9, and up-regulates the protein expression level of E-cadherin most likely through inhibiting IKK/NF-κB signaling pathway, and ultimately lead to decreases in the migration and invasion abilities of MDA-MB-231 cells.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of high mobility group box-1 protein (HMGB1) on the expression of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) in BV-2 cells stimulated with amyloid β-protein (Aβ)25-35. METHODS: Cultured BV-2 cells in logarithmic growth phase were divided into 4 groups:normal cell group (without any treatment), model group (treated with Aβ25-35 at 40 μmol/L), RNA interference (RNAi) group (conducted with HMGB1-siRNA followed by Aβ25-35 stimulation) and solvent control group (treated with 0.1% DMSO). After treatment with Aβ25-35 for 24 h, the protein levels of HMGB1 and NF-κB in BV-2 cells were determined by Western blot. RESULTS: Aβ25-35 at 40 μmol/L was used to stimulate BV-2 cells. The GFP fluorescence-tagged HMGB1-siRNA (30 nmol/L) was used to transfect BV-2 cells and its transfection efficiency was about 80%~90%. The results of Western blot showed that the protein level of HMGB1 was significantly decreased after the interference of siRNA fragment (P<0.05). The protein levels of HMGB1 and nucleic NF-κB p65 were dramatically increased in BV-2 cells stimulated with Aβ25-35 (P<0.05). After RNA interference with HMGB1, the expression of HMGB1 and nucleic NF-κB p65 were significantly decreased in BV-2 cells stimulated with Aβ25-35 (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: RNA interference with HMGB1 reduces the expression of nucleic NF-κB in BV-2 cells stimulated with Aβ25-35.  相似文献

AIM: To explore the effect of microRNA-146a (miR-146a) on apoptosis of human gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells and the underluing mechanism. METHODS: miR-146a mimic (up-regulated miR-146a expression) and miR-146a inhibitor (down-regulated miR-146a expression) were transfected into the SGC-7901 cells by liposome method. At the same time, miRNA nonsense sequence transfection group as the negative control group (NC group) was set up. RT-qPCR was used to evaluate the levels of miR-146a in the SGC-7901 cells after transfection. The effects of miR-146a on the cell apoptosis and growth were assessed by flow cytometry analysis and CCK-8 assay, respectively. The effect of over-expression or knockdown of miR-146a on transforming growth factor-β-activated kinase 1 (TAK1)/nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling was evaluated by RT-qPCR and Western blot. RESULTS: miR-146a modulated apoptosis of SGC-7901 cells. Over-expression of miR-146a significantly increased apoptosis, whereas knockdown of miR-146a inhibited the apoptosis of SGC-7901 cells. The expression of TAK1 at mRNA and protein levels was significantly decreased when miR-146a mimic was transfected into the SGC-7901 cells (P<0.05). On the contrast, the expression of TAK1 at mRNA and protein were significantly higher in miR-146a inhibitor transfection group than that in NC group (P<0.05), suggesting that miR-146a negatively regulated TAK1 expression. Moreover, knockdown of TAK1 enhanced the apoptosis of SGC-7901 cells (P<0.01), while over-expression of TAK1 inhibited the apoptosis of SGC-7901 cells(P<0.01). Additionally, both over-expression of miR-146a and knockdown of TAK1 led to a prominent increase in the expression of NF-κB inhibitor protein alpha (IκBα) and a significat decrease in B cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) level in the SGC-7901 cells. CONCLUSION: miR-146a significantly promotes apoptosis of SGC-7901 cells by inhibition of NF-κB pathway via targeting TAK1.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the combined effect of octreotide and Dachaihu decoction on the treatment of severe acute pancreatitis(SAP). METHODS: Wistar rats(n=50) were randomly divided into sham group, SAP group, octreotide group, Dachaihu decoction group and combination group. The quantity of ascites was measured. The levels of amylase, alanine aminotransferase and creatinine in the serum were examined. The morphological changes of the pancreatic tissues were observed by HE staining. The activation of NF-κB and IκBα expression were determined by Western blot. The mRNA expression with ICAM-1 and IL-1 was detected by qPCR.RESULTS: Combined treatment with octreotide and Dachaihu decoction effectively reduced the quantity of ascites and the levels of amylase, alanine aminotransferase and creatinine in the serum in SAP rats. Moreover, combined treatment significantly inhibited SAP-induced activation of NF-κB and decrease in IκBα protein expression, accompanied by a decrease in ICAM-1 and IL-1 mRNA expression. CONCLUSION: Combination of octreotide with Dachaihu decoction effectively attenuates SAP by inhibiting NF-κB signaling pathway and ICAM-1 and IL-1 expression.  相似文献

AIM:To investigate the effect of salvianolic acid B (Sal B) on high glucose-induced phenotypic transition and extracellular matrix (ECM) secretion in human glomerular mesangial cells (HGMCs) and the underlying mechanisms. METHODS:HGMCs were randomly divided into control group, high glucose group and high glucose plus high dose, medium dose and low dose of Sal B groups. The HGMCs except those in control group were exposed to high glucose (33.3 mmol/L) for 72 h, while those in Sal B groups were co-incubated with indicated concentrations of Sal B. The protein levels of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and phosphorylated Smad2 and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) were determined by Western blot. The secretion levels of collagen type I (Col I), collagen type Ⅲ (Col Ⅲ), fibronectin (FN) and laminin (LN) were measured by ELISA. RESULTS:Exposure to high glucose markedly increased the protein expression of α-SMA, TGF-β1, Col I, Col Ⅲ, FN and LN in the HGMCs (P<0.01). The phosphorylation levels of Smad2 and p38 MAPK were also significantly increased (P<0.01). Co-incubation with Sal B evidently decreased the protein expression of α-SMA, TGF-β1, Col I, Col Ⅲ, FN and LN in the HGMCs induced by high glucose (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The phosphorylated levels of Smad2 and p38 MAPK were also reduced noticeably (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSION:Sal B significantly suppresses high glucose-induced phenotypic transition and ECM secretion in the HGMCs, which might be attributed, at least partly, to inhibition of TGF-β1/Smad signaling pathway and p38 MAPK activation.  相似文献

AIM: To observe the effect of B-HT933, a selective α2-adrenoceptor agonist, on lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced TNF-α production in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes and to explore the underlying mechanisms.METHODS: The neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were cultured. The localization of α2A-adrenoceptor in the cardiomyocytes was examined by immunofluorescence staining. The cardiomyocytes were exposed to LPS or/and B-HT933 for different time. The level of TNF-α in the supernatants and the mRNA expression of TNF-α were detected by ELISA and real-time PCR, respectively. In addition, LPS-associated signal molecules in the cardiomyocytes were also examined by Western blotting.RESULTS: Immunofluorescence staining showed that α2A-adrenoceptors were localized in the cardiomyocytes. LPS stimulated TNF-α production in the cardiomyocytes in a dose and time-dependent manner. B-HT933 pretreatment significantly inhibited the expression of TNF-α at mRNA and protein levels in LPS-treated cardiomyocytes. Furthermore, LPS exposure induced IκBα and p38 phosphorylation in cardiomyocytes and only IκBα phosphorylation was prevented by B-HT933 treatment.CONCLUSION: α2A-adrenoceptors are present in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes and its agonist B-HT933 inhibits LPS-induced TNF-α production in cardiomyocytes via suppressing IκBα phosphorylation.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of curcumin (Cur) on the expression of High mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in amyloid-β (Aβ)-induced primary rat microglial cells. METHODS: Microglia were derived from the cerebral cortices of postnatal rat brains. The cells were identified by immunocytochemistry using mouse anti rat Iba-1 monoclonal antibody. A cell model using primary rat microglial cells incubated with Aβ25-35 as an inflammation model of Alzheimer's disease (AD) was set up. The morphological characters of primary rat microglial cells were observed. The concentration of Aβ25-35 and the treatment concentration of curcumin were selected by CCK-8 assay. Cultured primary rat microglial cells were divided into 5 groups:normal cell group, Aβ25-35 group, Cur group, Aβ25-35+Cur group and Aβ25-35+DMSO group. The expression of HMGB1, NF-κB, and receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) was detected by Western blot. The levels of HMGB1, IL-1β, and TNF-α in the culture supernatant were measured by ELISA. RESULTS: The purity of primary microglias determined by Iba-1 immunofluorescence was more than 95%. The protein levels of HMGB1, RAGE and NF-κB were significantly increased after Aβ25-35 stimulation. After treatment with Cur, the protein levels of HMGB1, RAGE and NF-κB were significantly decreased (P<0.05). The levels of HMGB1, IL-1β and TNF-α in the supernatant were significantly increased after Aβ25-35 stimulation. Cur significantly decreased the level of HMGB1, IL-1β and TNF-α in the supernatant. CONCLUSION: Curcumin significantly inhibits neuroinflammation stimulated by Aβ25-35 in primary rat microglial cells.  相似文献
