To investigate the effects of silencing transforming growth factor-β activating kinase 1 (TAK1)on the expressions of IL-6 and IL-8 induced by TNF-α in fibroblast-like synoviocytes, and to explore the role of TAK1 in rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
The synthesized TAK1 siRNA and scrambled siRNA (ScRNA) were transferred into cultured RA fibroblast-like synoviocyte line MH7A by lipofectamine. The expressions of the pro-inflammatory mediator IL-6 and IL-8 and the levels of phospho-P38(p-P38), phospho-C-Jun NH2-terminal kinase(p-JNK), phospho-extracellular signal-regulated kinase(p-ERK), phospho-p65(p-p65) and nuclear factor of kappa light polypeptide gene enhancer in B-cells inhibitor, alpha(IκBa) were examined.
Silencing of TAK was demonstrated in synoviocytes transfected by TAK siRNA. TAK1 silencing markedly attenuated the expression of IL-6 and IL-8 in the presence of TNF-α. TAK1 silencing inhibited the activation of p38 and JNK MAPK. TAK1 silencing also inhibited activation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB).
TAK1 silencing attenuated the expression of IL-6 and IL-8 in synoviocytes induced by TNF-α inhibiting the activation of p38, JNK MAPK and NF-κB.
探讨沉默转化生长因子-β激活激酶1(TAK1)对肿瘤坏死因子-α(TNF-α)诱导的成纤维样滑膜细胞中白细胞介素-6(IL-6)和白细胞介素-8(IL-8)表达的影响,以探究TAK1在类风湿关节炎(RA)中的作用。
通过脂质体将合成的TAK1小干扰RNA(siRNA)和乱序siRNA(ScRNA)转染至培养的RA成纤维样滑膜细胞系MH7A中。检测促炎介质IL-6和IL-8的表达以及磷酸化P38(p-P38)、磷酸化C-Jun氨基末端激酶(p-JNK)、磷酸化细胞外信号调节激酶(p-ERK)、磷酸化p65(p-p65)和B细胞中κ轻链多肽基因增强子的核因子α(IκBa)的水平。
TAK siRNA转染的滑膜细胞中证实了TAK1的沉默。在存在TNF-α的情况下,TAK1沉默显著减弱了IL-6和IL-8的表达。TAK1沉默抑制了p38和JNK丝裂原活化蛋白激酶(MAPK)的激活。TAK1沉默还抑制了核因子-κB(NF-κB)的激活。
