BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES: Selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor is a form of thnon steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and is commonly used in autoimmune and rheumatic diseases to control inflammation and alleviate pain. Tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) production and an imbalance of T helper 1 (Th1)/Th2 contribute to the pathogenesis of autoimmune and also anti-tumour activity. Dipyrone is a NSAID used to treat pain worldwide. The celecoxib analogue, 2,5-dimethylcelecoxib (DMC), lacks COX-2 inhibitory activity but exhibits anti-tumour properties. However, the effects and the mechanisms of dipyrone and 2,5-dimethylcelecoxib on tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α and Th1- and Th2-related chemokines in monocytes remain poorly defined. This study was carried out to investigate the effects of dipyrone and 2,5-dimethylcelecoxib on the expression of Th1 (IP-10) and Th2 (I-309 and MDC) and TNF-α in human monocytes and the associated intracellular mechanism.
THP-1 cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were pre-treated with dipyrone (10(-9)-10(-4) M) and 2,5-dimethylcelecoxib (10(-9)-10(-5) M) 2 h before lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation. Cell supernatant was collected 24 h after LPS stimulation. TNF-α, I-309, MDC and IP-10 concentrations of cell supernatants were determined using ELISA. Intracellular signaling was evaluated by w0 estern blot.
Dipyrone and 2,5-dimethylcelecoxib downregulated LPS-induced Th2-related chemokine I-309 and macrophage derived chemokine (MDC) production. Only high dose of 2,5-dimethylcelecoxib (10(-5) M), but not dipyrone downregulated LPS-induced IP-10. Only very high dose of 2,5-dimethylcelecoxib had effect on LPS-induced TNF-α expression in PBMCs. Dipyrone and 2,5-dimethylcelecoxib suppressed LPS-induced p65 and JNK MAPK (C-Jun N-terminal kinase mitogen activated protein kinase). expression.
INTERPRETATION & CONCLUSIONS: Dipyrone and 2,5-dimethylcelecoxib downregulated LPS-induced Th2-related chemokine I-309 and MDC in THP-1 cells. The suppressive effect on Th2-related chemokine I-309 and MDC may involve the downregulation of LPS-induced JNK and p65 expression.
选择性环氧化酶-2(COX-2)抑制剂是一种非甾体抗炎药(NSAID),常用于自身免疫性疾病和风湿性疾病以控制炎症和缓解疼痛。肿瘤坏死因子-α(TNF-α)的产生以及辅助性T细胞1(Th1)/辅助性T细胞2(Th2)失衡参与自身免疫性疾病的发病机制,同时也具有抗肿瘤活性。安乃近是一种在全球范围内用于治疗疼痛的NSAID。塞来昔布类似物2,5-二甲基塞来昔布(DMC)缺乏COX-2抑制活性,但具有抗肿瘤特性。然而,安乃近和2,5-二甲基塞来昔布对单核细胞中肿瘤坏死因子(TNF)-α以及Th1和Th2相关趋化因子的影响及机制仍不清楚。本研究旨在探讨安乃近和2,5-二甲基塞来昔布对人单核细胞中Th1(IP-10)、Th2(I-309和MDC)以及TNF-α表达的影响及其相关的细胞内机制。
在脂多糖(LPS)刺激前2小时,用安乃近(10⁻⁹ - 10⁻⁴ M)和2,5-二甲基塞来昔布(10⁻⁹ - 10⁻⁵ M)预处理THP-1细胞和外周血单个核细胞(PBMC)。LPS刺激24小时后收集细胞上清液。使用酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA)法测定细胞上清液中TNF-α、I-309、MDC和IP-10的浓度。通过蛋白质免疫印迹法评估细胞内信号传导。
安乃近和2,5-二甲基塞来昔布下调LPS诱导的Th2相关趋化因子I-309和巨噬细胞衍生趋化因子(MDC)的产生。仅高剂量的2,5-二甲基塞来昔布(10⁻⁵ M)可下调LPS诱导的IP-10,而安乃近无此作用。仅极高剂量的2,5-二甲基塞来昔布对PBMC中LPS诱导的TNF-α表达有影响。安乃近和2,5-二甲基塞来昔布抑制LPS诱导的p65和JNK丝裂原活化蛋白激酶(C-Jun N端激酶丝裂原活化蛋白激酶)的表达。
安乃近和2,5-二甲基塞来昔布下调LPS诱导的THP-1细胞中Th2相关趋化因子I-309和MDC的表达。对Th2相关趋化因子I-309和MDC的抑制作用可能涉及下调LPS诱导的JNK和p65的表达。
