چکیده

Chronic systemic inflammation is implicated in the systemic manifestations and, probably, the excess mortality risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The role of nuclear factor (NF)-κB repressing factor (NRF), a DNA-binding, protein-inhibiting NF-κB response gene, in human diseases has not been explored. We hypothesised that the NRF-negative regulatory mechanism is impaired in COPD peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) leading to excessive interleukin (IL)-8/CXCL8 production. NRF expression, NF-κB activation, IL-8/CXCL8 release and intracellular oxidative stress were assessed in PBMCs of normal subjects and stable COPD patients. Primary PBMCs with NRF overexpression, NRF knockdown and exposure to H(2)O(2) were used to elucidate the mechanisms. Stable COPD patients, especially those with severe COPD, showed decreased NRF expression, enhanced NF-κB activation and increased IL-8/CXCL8 release in PBMCs compared with normal subjects. This was associated with reduced NRF and increased RNA polymerase II occupancy at the IL-8/CXCL8 promoter. NRF knockdown enhanced IL-8/CXCL8 production in normal PBMCs, whilst NRF overexpression attenuated IL-8/CXCL8 production. Intracellular oxidative stress was increased in COPD PBMCs. H(2)O(2)-decreased NRF expression and -enhanced IL-8/CXCL8 production was augmented in COPD PBMCs. NRF expression is reduced in PBMCs of stable COPD patients, probably through oxidative stress, leading to increased production of IL-8/CXCL8 and potentially chronic systemic inflammation.

Nuclear factor-κB1 expression levels in human gastric adenocarcinoma

NF-κB pathway is a link between inflammation and cancer and is involved in cellular responses to different stimuli. Gastrointestinal lumen is exposed to many inflammatory agents such as foods, free radicals and bacterial or viral antigens. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the possible role of NF-κB1in gastric adenocarcinoma. To detect the relative level of NF-κB1transcript, total RN...

Monascin ameliorate inflammation in the lipopolysaccharide-induced BV-2 microglial cells via suppressing the NF-κB/p65 pathway

Objective(s): The pathophysiology of neurodegenerative diseases is complicated, in which inflammatory reactions play a vital role. Microglia cells activation, an essential process of neuroinflammation, can produce neurotoxic molecules and neurotrophic factors, which aggravate inflammation and neuronal injury. Monascin, a major component of red yeast rice, is an azaphil...

Cigarette Smoke Induced Airway Inflammation Is Independent of NF-κB Signalling

RATIONALE COPD is an inflammatory lung disease largely associated with exposure to cigarette smoke (CS). The mechanism by which CS leads to the pathogenesis of COPD is currently unclear; it is known however that many of the inflammatory mediators present in the COPD lung can be produced via the actions of the transcription factor Nuclear Factor-kappaB (NF-κB) and its upstream signalling kinase,...

Objective(s): This study aims to determine the effects of ozone therapy on restoring impaired Nrf2 activation to ameliorate chronic tubulointerstitial injury in rats with adenine-induced CKD. Materials and Methods: Sprague–Dawley rats were fed with 0.75% adenine-containing diet to induce CKD and chronic tubulointerstitial injury. Ozone therapy was administered by rectal insufflation. After 4 we...
