Accumulation of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) mRNA was investigated in human monocytes and mouse peritoneal macrophages. Treatment of both populations of mononuclear phagocytes with bacterial lipopolysaccharide induced a marked and rapid increase in the accumulation of the ODC gene transcript. A similar phenomenon, albeit less pronounced, was also observed following treatment of human monocytes with human recombinant interferon-gamma. These results suggest a role for ODC, and therefore polyamines, in the regulation of mononuclear phagocyte functions.
对人单核细胞和小鼠腹腔巨噬细胞中鸟氨酸脱羧酶(ODC)mRNA的积累情况进行了研究。用细菌脂多糖处理这两种单核吞噬细胞群体,可诱导ODC基因转录本的积累显著且快速增加。用人重组干扰素-γ处理人单核细胞后,也观察到了类似现象,尽管不太明显。这些结果表明ODC,进而多胺,在单核吞噬细胞功能的调节中发挥作用。
