Prmt2 regulates the lipopolysaccharide-induced responses in lungs and macrophages.

چکیده
Precise control of the LPS stimulation in the lung modulates inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness involving the well-known TLR4/NF-κB pathway. As a consequence, the expression and secretion of proinflammatory cytokines is tightly regulated with the recruitment of neutrophils. Changes in the LPS-induced responses have been observed in the Prmt2-Col6a1 monosomic model, suggesting the presence of dosage-sensitive genes controlling LPS pathway in the mouse. In this article, we report that the Prmt2 regulates the LPS-induced lung responses in lungs and macrophages. We demonstrate that Prmt2 gene dosage influences the lung airway hyperresponsiveness, the recruitment of neutrophils, and the expression of proinflammatory cytokines, such as IL-6 and TNF-α. In addition, Prmt2 loss of function also altered the nuclear accumulation of NF-κB in stimulated macrophages. Prmt2 should be considered as a new member of the NF-κB pathway controlling LPS-induced inflammatory and lung responses in a dosage-dependent manner, certainly through regulating nuclear accumulation of NF-κB as shown already in fibroblasts.

Background: Macrophages activation is the important anti-leishmania immune response. Different signals could affect macrophages development and functional activation. Objectives: In the present study, we compared the effect of Leishmania Soluble Antigen (LSA)and Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on peritoneal macrophage responses. Appropriate activation of macrophages depends on thesignals they receive ...
متن کاملParaquat Exposure Up-regulates Cyclooxygenase-2 in the Lungs, Liver and Kidneys in Rats
Paraquat is a commonly used herbicide in many countries which can lead to systematic poisoning on exposure, In this study, paraquat (PQ)-induced changes in the expression of Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) along with biochemical and histopathological changes in the lungs, liver and kidneys were studied. Twenty four male Wistar rats (180-200 g) were exposed either against saline as control group or var...

متن کاملModeling the monosomy for the telomeric part of human chromosome 21 reveals haploinsufficient genes modulating the inflammatory and airway responses.
Monosomy 21 is a rare human disease due to gene dosage errors disturbing a variety of physiological and morphological systems including brain, skeletal, immune and respiratory functions. Most of the human condition corresponds to partial or mosaic monosomy suggesting that Monosomy 21 may be lethal. In order to search for dosage-sensitive genes involved in the human pathology, we generated by ch...
