To investigate the effects of heat shock protein 72 (Hsp72) on the expression of IL-6 and IL-8 and activation of NF-kappaB in synoviocytes from patients suffered from rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
IL6 and IL8 concentrations in culture supernatants were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). Nuclear translocation of NF-kappaB and degradation of the inhibitory protein IkappaBalpha were examined using immunohistochemistry and Western blot.
Hsp72 down-regulated IL-6 and IL-8 production in RA synoviocytes induced by tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha). Hsp72 inhibited nuclear translocation of NF-kappaB and degradation of IkappaBalpha induced by TNF-alpha.
Hsp72 has an anti-inflammatory effect on RA by down-regulation of IL-6 and IL-8 in synoviocytes, which is mediated through inhibiting the activation of NF-KalphaB signal pathways.
研究热休克蛋白72(Hsp72)对类风湿关节炎(RA)患者滑膜细胞中白细胞介素-6(IL-6)和白细胞介素-8(IL-8)表达及核因子κB(NF-κB)激活的影响。
采用酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA)法检测培养上清液中IL-6和IL-8的浓度。采用免疫组织化学和蛋白质印迹法检测NF-κB的核转位及抑制蛋白IκBα的降解情况。
Hsp72可下调肿瘤坏死因子-α(TNF-α)诱导的RA滑膜细胞中IL-6和IL-8的产生。Hsp72可抑制TNF-α诱导的NF-κB核转位及IκBα降解。
Hsp72通过下调滑膜细胞中IL-6和IL-8对RA具有抗炎作用,这是通过抑制NF-κB信号通路的激活介导的。
