Hydrogen Peroxide Upregulates TNF-Related Apoptosis-Inducing Ligand (TRAIL) Expression in Human Astroglial Cells, and Augments Apoptosis of T Cells

چکیده
The brain is particularly vulnerable to oxygen free radicals, and these radicals have been implicated in the pathology of several neurological disorders. In this study, the modulation of TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) expression by oxidative stress was shown in LN215 cells, an astroglioma cell line. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) treatment increased TRAIL expression in LN215 cells and H2O2-induced TRAIL augmented apoptosis in Peer cells, a cell line sensitive to TRAIL- mediated cell death. Our findings suggest that the upregulation of TRAIL in astroglial cells may abrogate immune cell effector functions.

Background: Type-I diabetes is an autoimmune inflammatory disease in which pancreatic ß-cells are selectively destroyed by infiltrating cells. TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) is a type-II membrane protein of the TNF superfamily which is expressed in different tissues, including pancreas and lymphocytes. In humans, TRAIL interacts with four membrane receptors. TRAIL-R1 and TRAIL-R2...
