The effect of D-galactosamine (D-GalN) on nitric oxide (NO) production in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophage cells was examined. D-GalN augmented the production of NO, but not tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. Pretreatment of D-GalN augmented the NO production whereas its post-treatment did not. D-GalN augmented the NO production in RAW 264.7 cells stimulated with either TNF-alpha and interferon-gamma. The augmentation of LPS-induced NO production by D-GalN was due to enhanced expressions of an inducible type of NO synthase mRNA and proteins. Intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) were exclusively generated in RAW 264.7 cells stimulated with D-GalN and LPS. Scavenging of intracellular ROS abrogated the augmentation of NO production. It was therefore suggested that D-GalN might augment LPS-induced NO production through the generation of intracellular ROS.
研究了D-半乳糖胺(D-GalN)对脂多糖(LPS)刺激的RAW 264.7巨噬细胞中一氧化氮(NO)产生的影响。D-GalN增强了LPS刺激的RAW 264.7细胞中NO的产生,但不增强肿瘤坏死因子(TNF)-α的产生。D-GalN预处理增强了NO的产生,而后处理则没有。D-GalN增强了用TNF-α和干扰素-γ刺激的RAW 264.7细胞中NO的产生。D-GalN增强LPS诱导的NO产生是由于诱导型NO合酶mRNA和蛋白质的表达增强。细胞内活性氧(ROS)仅在D-GalN和LPS刺激的RAW 264.7细胞中产生。清除细胞内ROS消除了NO产生的增强。因此,提示D-GalN可能通过产生细胞内ROS来增强LPS诱导的NO产生。
