Abstract:
Aim To study IL-8 expression of U937 cells directly induced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa(PA)and its mechanism through the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways.Methods The expressions of IL-8 mRNA in human monocytic leukemia cell lines(U937 cells)infected by Pseudomonas aeruginosa which were in differently differentiated and its protein secretion in the supernatant of culture medium were examined by the methods of RT-PCR and ELISA respectively.And these were then to be compared with those inhibited by MAPK inhibitors.Results Pseudomonas aeruginosa was able to induce IL-8 mRNA expression and their protein secretion both in U937 cells and in PMA differentiated U937 cells and had marked time and concentration dependent relations.Pretreament of U937 cells with specific inhibitors of ERK1/2(PD98059),the kinase that activated ERK1/2,p38(SB203580)could significantly diminished the PA-induced IL-8 production(P
