چکیده

The trace element zinc affects several aspects of immune function, such as the release of proinflammatory cytokines from monocytes. We investigated the role of cyclic nucleotide signaling in zinc inhibition of LPS-induced TNF-alpha and IL-1beta release from primary human monocytes and the monocytic cell line Mono Mac1. Zinc reversibly inhibited enzyme activity of phosphodiesterase-1 (PDE-1), PDE-3, and PDE-4 in cellular lysate. It additionally reduced mRNA expression of PDE-1C, PDE-4A, and PDE-4B in intact cells. Although these PDE can also hydrolyze cAMP, only the cellular level of cGMP was increased after incubation with zinc, whereas cAMP was found to be even slightly reduced due to inhibition of its synthesis. To investigate whether an increase in cGMP alone is sufficient to inhibit cytokine release, the cGMP analogues 8-bromo-cGMP and dibutyryl cGMP as well as the NO donor S-nitrosocysteine were used. All three treatments inhibited TNF-alpha and IL-1beta release after stimulation with LPS. Inhibition of soluble guanylate cyclase-mediated cGMP synthesis with LY83583 reversed the inhibitory effect of zinc on LPS-induced cytokine release. In conclusion, inhibition of PDE by zinc abrogates the LPS-induced release of TNF-alpha and IL-1beta by increasing intracellular cGMP levels.

Expression of Recombinant Phosphodiesterase 3A and 3B Using Baculovirus Expression System

Background: Phosphodiesterase 3A (PDE3A) and phosphodiesterase 3B (PDE3B) play a critical role in the regulation of intracellular level of adenosine 3´,5´-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic AMP, cAMP) and guanosine 3´,5´-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic GMP, cGMP). Subsequently PDE3 inhibitors have shown to relax vascular and inhibit platelet aggregation in cardiovascular disease. Objectives: In th...

Tumor necrosis factor-alpha-dependent expression of phosphodiesterase 2: role in endothelial hyperpermeability.

The pleiotropic cytokine tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and thrombin lead to increased endothelial permeability in sepsis. Numerous studies demonstrated the significance of intracellular cyclic nucleotides for the maintenance of endothelial barrier function. Actions of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) are terminated by distinct cyclic nucl...

Phosphodiesterase 4 inhibition of beta2-integrin adhesion caused by leukotriene B4 and TNF-alpha in human neutrophils.

Phosphodiesterase (PDE)4 inhibition attenuates neutrophilic inflammation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The objective of the present study was to examine the efficacy and mechanism by which PDE4 inhibition blocks adhesion of beta(2)-integrin to an endothelial counterligand. Neutrophils (polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs)) were isolated from humans receiving no medication. Adhesion w...

Effects of prostacyclin analogues on human endothelial cell tissue factor expression.

Prostacyclin analogues have been reported to inhibit the expression of tissue factor procoagulant activity in human monocytes, primarily by elevating intracellular levels of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP). The present studies have investigated whether prostacyclins can also inhibit tissue factor expression in endothelial cells. Iloprost, carbacyclin, and ciprostene had no effect on...
