The influence of macrolide antibiotics on nitric oxide (NO) generation was examined using human nasal polyp fibroblasts (NPFs) in vitro. Addition of roxithromycin (RXM) at a concentration of > 7.5 microg/ml to cell cultures was shown to suppress NO production in response to stimulation with 25.0 ng/ml tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha. However, jyosamycin (JM) did not suppress NO production from NPFs induced by TNF-alpha stimulation in vitro, even when added to cell cultures at a concentration of 20.0 microg/ml. We then examined the influence of RXM on inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) mRNA expression in NPFs. Addition of RXM at a dose of 7.5 microg/ml to cell cultures caused reduction of iNOS mRNA expression, which was enhanced by TNF-alpha stimulation in vitro.
在体外使用人鼻息肉成纤维细胞(NPF)研究了大环内酯类抗生素对一氧化氮(NO)生成的影响。向细胞培养物中添加浓度>7.5μg/ml的罗红霉素(RXM)可抑制细胞对25.0ng/ml肿瘤坏死因子(TNF)-α刺激产生的NO。然而,即使以20.0μg/ml的浓度添加到细胞培养物中,交沙霉素(JM)在体外也不会抑制TNF-α刺激诱导的NPF产生NO。然后,我们研究了RXM对NPF中诱导型一氧化氮合酶(iNOS)mRNA表达的影响。向细胞培养物中添加7.5μg/ml剂量的RXM可导致iNOS mRNA表达降低,体外TNF-α刺激可增强这种降低。
