Myeloperoxidase deficiency attenuates lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung inflammation and subsequent cytokine and chemokine production.
Lung neutrophilia is common to a variety of lung diseases. The production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species during neutrophil oxidative burst has been associated with protein and DNA damage. Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is an enzyme stored in the azurophilic granula of neutrophils. It is important in host defense because it generates the reactive oxidant hypochlorous acid and has been described ...
متن کاملL-arginine attenuates lipopolysaccharide-induced lung chemokine production.
Chemokines stimulate the influx of leukocytes into tissues. Their production is regulated by nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB), an inducible transcription factor under the control of inhibitory factor kappaB-alpha (IkappaB-alpha). We have previously demonstrated that L-arginine (L-Arg) attenuates neutrophil accumulation and pulmonary vascular injury after administration of lipopolysaccharide (L...
متن کاملArtemisia argyi attenuates airway inflammation in lipopolysaccharide induced acute lung injury model
Artemisia argyi is used as a health supplement, tea, and food source in Korea. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of Artemisia argyi (AA) and its active compound, dehydromatricarin A (DA), on the attenuation of airway inflammation in a murine model of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury (ALI). The C57BL/6 mice were administered AA (50 mg/kg or 100 mg/kg) and DA (10 mg/kg or ...
متن کاملAcanthopanax senticosus attenuates inflammation in lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury by inhibiting the NF-κB pathway.
The dried roots of the plant Acanthopanax senticosus (AS) are used in traditional Oriental medicine and reportedly possess anti-inflammatory properties in vitro. However, whether AS has the same anti-inflammatory effect in vivo and the underlying mechanisms of this action remain unknown. In this study, we pretreated a mouse model of lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury with AS and found...
متن کاملDifferential regulation of cytokine and chemokine production in lipopolysaccharide-induced tolerance and priming.
LPS pretreatment of human pro-monocytic THP-1 cells induces tolerance to secondary LPS stimulation with reduced TNFalpha production. However, secondary stimulation with heat-killed Staphylococcus aureus (HKSa) induces priming as evidenced by augmented TNFalpha production. The pro-inflammatory cytokine, IFNgamma, also abolishes suppression of TNFalpha in LPS tolerance. The effect of LPS toleranc...
