Lung macrophage-epithelial cell interactions amplify particle-mediated cytokine release.
Interactions between alveolar macrophages (AMs) and epithelial cells may promote inflammatory responses to air pollution particles. Normal rat AMs, the alveolar type II epithelial cell line RLE-6TN (RLE), or cocultures of both cell types were incubated with various particles (0-50 microg/ml) for 24 h, followed by assay of released TNF-alpha and MIP-2. The particles used included titanium dioxid...
متن کاملEffects of cardiopulmonary bypass on lung nuclear factor-kappa B activity, cytokine release, and pulmonary function in dogs
Objective(s): To study the effect of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) on nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-кB) and cytokine expression and pulmonary function in dogs. Materials and Methods: Twelve male mongrel dogs were divided into a methylprednisolone group (group M) and a control group (group C). All animals underwent aortic and right atrial catheterization under general anesthesia. Changes in pulmonar...
متن کاملO-GlcNAcylation of TAB1 modulates TAK1-mediated cytokine release
Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β-activated kinase 1 (TAK1) is a key serine/threonine protein kinase that mediates signals transduced by pro-inflammatory cytokines such as transforming growth factor-β, tumour necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin-1 (IL-1) and wnt family ligands. TAK1 is found in complex with binding partners TAB1-3, phosphorylation and ubiquitination of which has been found to re...
متن کاملParticulate-cell interactions and pulmonary cytokine expression.
The type II cell plays an important role in the response of the alveolar epithelium after lung injury through its synthesis and secretion of pulmonary surfactant, and by acting as the stem cell for the replacement of damaged type I epithelial cells. The nonciliated bronchiolar epithelial (Clara) cell is thought to play a similar role during repair of the bronchiolar epithelium. Recent evidence ...
متن کاملCell stress increases ATP release in NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated autoinflammatory diseases, resulting in cytokine imbalance.
Cell stress is implicated in triggering bouts of systemic inflammation in patients with autoinflammatory disorders. Blood monocytes from patients affected by NLRP3-mediated cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS) release greater amounts of IL-1β than monocytes from unaffected subjects. Here we show that stress lowers the threshold of activation; blood monocytes from CAPS patients maintai...
