The inhibitors also influence the LPS-induced phosphorylation pattern of cytosolic proteins. They consistently lead to changes of the phosphorylation state of two proteins with an apparent molecular mass of 36 kDa and 38 kDa. The changes are both time and dose dependent.

It has been unequivocally established that it is the major determinant in the vasodilatation and consequent hypotension in experimental animals following the administration of LPS. It is cytotoxic, particularly in combination with superoxide anions, and exerts negative inotropic and chronotropic effects on the heart. The exact role that these functions play in sepsis, however, remain unclear. Similarly, its immunomodulatory and cerebral effects, although potentially important, remain of uncertain significance in sepsis. Regulation of such a pivotal molecule is clearly extremely important: the data described here show that not only is this regulation extremely complex, but it appears to vary in different cell types. The implication of this finding for future clinical work is clear. NO production is not all bad: in some circumstances, it may be desirable to differentially regulate iNOS activity such that production is restricted in some cell types but not in others.

{"title":"Molecular mechanisms responsible for endotoxin tolerance.","authors":"B Yoza, K LaRue, C McCall","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Bacterial lipopolysaccharide endotoxin (LPS) is a potent activator of a number of inflammatory genes, including interleukin-1 (IL-1). IL-1 and other cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) are essential mediators in inducing severe sepsis syndromes (SS). Major cellular targets of LPS are blood or tissue leukocytes, such as macrophages and neutrophils. These cells can respond and adapt to LPS, the latter phenomenon is known as LPS tolerance. In animals, LPS tolerance is a highly effective mechanism of protection against the lethal syndrome of severe sepsis. Two models are used to investigate the molecular basis of LPS tolerance. The first model employs blood leukocytes isolated from patients with SS. The second model employs the promonocytic cell line, THP-1 in vitro. In the SS model, LPS tolerance of involves repression at the level of IL-1 beta mRNA. Suppression of IL-1 beta mRNA is under the control of a labile repressor protein. In contrast to suppression of IL-1 beta, mRNA is under the control of a labile repressor protein. In contrast to suppression of IL-1 beta, there is increased expression of the Type 2 IL-1 receptor mRNA and protein in leukocytes from patients with SS. The THP-1 model of LPS tolerance also involves repression of LPS induction of IL-1 beta gene expression. The repression of THP-1 cell IL-1 beta expression is at the level of transcription, and like the SS model is under the control of a labile protein. LPS tolerance in both models is stimulus-specific. We further find that transcription factors such as NF kappa B and AP-1 may participate in regulating LPS tolerance.</p>","PeriodicalId":20686,"journal":{"name":"Progress in clinical and biological research","volume":"397 ","pages":"209-15"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20497108","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
