Abstract:
Objective To investigate the influence of panton-valentine leucocidin (PVL) on expression of Toll like receptor 4(TLR4)/nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-κB) signals and IL-8,IL-6 in THP-1 macrophages,and to study the mechanism of PVL-related lung tissue damage.Methods THP-1 cells were cultured in the presence of 100 nmol/L phorbol-12-myristate 3-acetate (PMA) for 48 h to induce monocytemacrophage differentiation.rPVL-F and rPVL-S were induced and expressed from the recombinant plasmid,respectively purified with chromatographic column. After that,THP-1 macrophages were incubated with rPVL,and then ELISA was performed to test expression of IL-8 and L-6 in supernatants fluid; RT-PCR was performed to detect expression of IL-8,L-6 and TLR4 ; NF-κB was analyzed by Western blot and immunohistochemistry method.Results PVL was able to induce expression of IL-8 and IL-6 in THP-1 macrophages in time-and concentration-dependent manners.PVL could also significantly promote the activation of TLR4/NF-κB signals.Conclusion PVL can activate the expression of TLR4/NF-κB signals,and increased the high expression of inflammatory cytokines.Maybe it's the mechanism of action of PVL exerts the function of lung tissue damage.
