IL-10 inhibited transcription of IL-15 and IL-6 in lipopolysaccharide-induced Hela cells / 中国生化药物杂志

ABSTRACT

Purpose To investigate the effect of interleukin-10(IL-10)on IL-15mRNA and IL-6mRNA in Hela cells induced by lipopolysaccharide(LPS)and to analyze their activiated signal transduction pathways.Methods Extracted total RNA and total proteins of cultured Hela cells,which were treated with different concentrations of LPS,or IL-10 alone or in combined use,were to analyze the levels of IL-15mRNA and IL-6mRNA using RT-PCR and to analyze the expression of signal transduction pathway proteins using Western blot.Results RT-PCR indicated that expression of IL-15mRNA and IL-6mRNA in Hela cells strikingly increased after 12 h using 1 ng-10μg LPS(P＜0.01 vs control),which had dose-dependence and achieved peak value using 100 ng/mL.During 0-24 h,expression of IL-15mRNA and IL-6mRNA strikingly increased with time changing(P＜0.01 vs control),which had time-dependence and achieved peak value at 12 h.Expression of IL-15mRNA and IL-6mRNA had no conspicuous difference in Hela cells treated with IL-10(10 ng/mL)alone(P＞0.05 vs control).Different concentrations of IL-10 1,10,100 ns/mL)markedly downregnlated expression of IL-15mRNA and IL-6mRNA in Hela cells induced by LPS.Furthermore,the effect of inhibition will be more obvious with dose increasing.Western blot indicated that LPS upregulated expression of IL-15mRNA and IL-6mRNA by phosphorylation of PI3K/AKT and ERK1/2.IL-10 blocked phosphorylation of AKT,but could not affect phosphorylation of ERK1/2.Conclusion IL-10 downregulated the expression of inflammatory cytokines IL-15 and 1L-6 induced by LPS,which may correlate with the fact that phosphorylation of AKT was blcoked by IL-10.Therefore,IL-10 may be used to prevent and treat some clincal infective diseases.
