Estradiol suppresses MCP-1 expression In vivo : implications for atherosclerosis.
The mechanisms by which 17beta-estradiol retards atherogenesis are not known. The adhesion of monocytes to endothelial cells followed by the migration of monocytes into the artery wall are key cellular events that occur throughout the entire atherogenic process and may be responsive to estradiol. Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), a chemokine that is expressed in atherosclerotic lesion...
متن کاملMCP-1 expression in endotoxin-induced uveitis.
PURPOSE Monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1 (CCL-2) is a chemokine with chemoattractant properties for monocytes, memory T cells, natural killer cells, mast cells, and basophils. To delineate the role played by MCP-1 in acute anterior uveitis, a common ocular inflammation, MCP-1(-/-) mice and wild-type matched control mice were analyzed for the development of endotoxin-induced uveitis (EIU...
متن کاملMonocyte:astrocyte interactions regulate MCP-1 expression in both cell types.
As astrocytes are a source of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and lie in close apposition to brain microvessels, interactions between astrocytes and infiltrating monocytes might regulate production of this chemokine. To investigate this possibility, a monocyte:astrocyte co-culture model was utilized to assess the respective roles of these two cell types in regulating MCP-1 production...
متن کاملDexmedetomidine Attenuates Lipopolysaccharide Induced MCP-1 Expression in Primary Astrocyte
Background. Neuroinflammation which presents as a possible mechanism of delirium is associated with MCP-1, an important proinflammatory factor which is expressed on astrocytes. It is known that dexmedetomidine (DEX) possesses potent anti-inflammatory properties. This study aimed to investigate the potential effects of DEX on the production of MCP-1 in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated astrocytes. M...
متن کاملCigarette Smoke-Related Hydroquinone Dysregulates MCP-1, VEGF and PEDF Expression in Retinal Pigment Epithelium in Vitro and in Vivo
BACKGROUND Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of legal blindness in the elderly population. Debris (termed drusen) below the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) have been recognized as a risk factor for dry AMD and its progression to wet AMD, which is characterized by choroidal neovascularization (CNV). The underlying mechanism of how drusen might elicit CNV remains undefi...
