ABSTRACT
<p><b>AIM</b>To investigate the effect of meloxicam on human polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) adhesion to human synovial cell (HSC), and to explore its mechanism.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>MTT colorimetry was used to determine the adhesion effect of PMN to HSC. Cell-ELISA and RT-PCR methods were used to determine the expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1. Nuclear transcription factor-kappa B (NF-kappa B) was measured by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) method.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Meloxicam was found to effectively inhibit TNF-alpha (50 u.mL-1 for 12 h) and IL-1 beta (50 u.mL-1 for 12 h)-induced adhesion of PMN to HSC (IC50 3.38 x 10(-7) mol.L-1 and 3.56 x 10(-6) mol.L-1, respectively) in a concentration-dependent manner. ICAM-1 protein and mRNA expression induced by TNF-alpha (50 u.mL-1) were inhibited by meloxicam at 1 x 10(-6)-1 x 10(-5) mol.L-1. The activation of NF-kappa B was also inhibited by meloxicam at 1 x 10(-6)-1 x 10(-5) mol.L-1.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>These results suggest that meloxicam inhibit TNF-alpha stimulated PMN-HSC adhesion and expression of ICAM-1 by suppressing the activity of NF-kappa B.</p>
