Zinc finger transcription factor Egr-1 activates Flt-1 gene expression in THP-1 cells on induction for macrophage differentiation.
Activation of macrophages is a hallmark of atherosclerosis. Stimulation of human monocytic leukemia THP-1 cells with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) is known to induce a variety of genes whose function is relevant to activated macrophages. Flt-1, a receptor tyrosine kinase for vascular endothelial growth factor, is expressed in macrophages as well as in endothelial cells and mediates the ...
متن کاملInhibitory effect of Astragalus polysaccharides on lipopolysaccharide-induced TNF-a and IL-1β production in THP-1 cells.
Astragalus polysaccharides (APS), one of main bioactive components in Astragalus membranaceus Bunge, has been reported to possess anti-inflammatory activities, but the molecular mechanisms behind this activity are largely unknown. This study aimed to investigate expression of inflammatory cytokines and the MAPK/NF-κB pathway in human THP-1 macrophages induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The re...
متن کاملHypertonic saline downregulate the production level of lipopolysaccharide-induced migration inhibitory factor in THP-1 cells
PURPOSE Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) may serve as a general marker for systemic inflammation in septic and nonseptic acute critical illness. Additionally, our previous experiment has demonstrated that immunosuppressant Prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) lowered MIF levels and inhibited T-cells proliferation when compared to control levels. The addition of hypertonic saline (HTS) increa...
متن کاملInhibitory Effect of N,N-Didesmethylgrossularine-1 on Inflammatory Cytokine Production in Lipopolysaccharide-Stimulated RAW 264.7 Cells
N,N-Didesmethylgrossularine-1 (DDMG-1), a compound with a rare alpha-carboline structure, was isolated from an Indonesian ascidian Polycarpa aurata as responsible for the observed inhibitory activity against TNF-alpha production in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated murine macrophage-like RAW264.7 cells. DDMG-1 inhibited the mRNA level of mTNF-alpha, IkappaB-alpha degradation, and binding of NF-kapp...
