149 10798271 Under physiological conditions endothelium mediates vascular dilatation (formation of NO, PGI2, adenosine, hyperpolarizing factor), prevents platelet adhesion and activation (production of adenosine, NO and PGI2, removal of ADP), blocks thrombin formation (tissue factor pathway inhibitor, activation of protein C via thrombomodulin, activation of antithrombin III) and mitigates fibrin deposition (t- and scuplasminogen activator production).
150 10798271 This prothrombotic, proinflammatory state is characterised by vaso-constriction, platelet and leukocyte activation and adhesion (externalization, expression and upregulation of von Willebrand factor, platelet activating factor, P-selectin, ICAM-1, IL-8, MCP-1, TNF alpha, etc.), promotion of thrombin formation, coagulation and fibrin deposition at the vascular wall (expression of tissue factor, PAI-1, phosphatidyl serine, etc.) and, in platelet-leukocyte coaggregates, additional inflammatory interactions via attachment of platelet CD40-ligand to endothelial, monocyte and B-cell CD40.

160 10868970 We then assessed the role of macrophages on the basis of the pharmacological modulation of their recruitment by insulin or ACE inhibitor treatments and by X-irradiation-induced macrophage depletion at days 8 and 30.
161 10868970 Macrophage recruitment was preceded by or associated with an increased glomerular expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule 1, intracellular adhesion molecule 1, and monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, which contributes to monocyte diapedesis.
162 10868970 Insulin treatment and irradiation-induced macrophage depletion completely prevented the glomerular macrophage recruitment and decreased alpha1-chain type IV collagen mRNA and mesangial area in diabetic rats, whereas ACE inhibitor treatment had an incomplete effect.
163 10878389 Whereas an elevated ratio of macrophage inflammatory protein-1alpha (MIP-1alpha):MIP-1beta in the pancreas correlated with destructive insulitis and progression to diabetes in NOD mice, a decreased intrapancreatic MIP-1alpha:MIP-1beta ratio was observed in nonobese diabetes-resistant (NOR) mice.
164 10878389 IL-4 treatment, which prevents diabetes in NOD mice by polarizing intraislet Th2 responses, decreased CCR5 expression in islets and potentiated a high ratio of MIP-1beta and monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1): MIP-1alpha in the pancreas.
165 10878389 These studies illustrate that the temporal expression of certain CC chemokines, particularly MIP-1alpha, and the CCR5 chemokine receptor in the pancreas is associated with the development of insulitis and spontaneous type I diabetes.

255 11375353 Requirement for p38 and p44/p42 mitogen-activated protein kinases in RAGE-mediated nuclear factor-kappaB transcriptional activation and cytokine secretion.
256 11375353 CML-modified albumin produced rapid transient activation of tyrosine phosphorylation, extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1 and 2, and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), but not c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase.
257 11375353 RAGE-mediated NF-kappaB activation was suppressed by the selective p38 MAPK inhibitor SB203580 and by coexpression of a kinase-dead p38 dominant-negative mutant.
258 11375353 Activation of NF-kappaB by CML-modified albumin increased secretion of proinflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-1beta, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1) severalfold, and inhibition of p38 MAPK blocked these increases.
259 11375353 These results indicate that p38 MAPK activation mediates RAGE-induced NF-kappaB-dependent secretion of proinflammatory cytokines and suggest that accelerated inflammation may be a consequence of cellular activation induced by this receptor.

357 11912219 Advanced glycation end product-induced apoptosis and overexpression of vascular endothelial growth factor and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 in human-cultured mesangial cells.
358 11912219 We investigated the effects of AGE on growth and on vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) expression in human cultured mesangial cells.
359 11912219 All of the AGE-BSA were found to significantly increase p53 and Bax protein accumulations and subsequently induce apoptotic cell death in mesangial cells.
360 11912219 Furthermore, various types of AGE-BSA were found to up-regulate the levels of mRNAs for VEGF and stimulate the secretion of VEGF and MCP-1 proteins in mesangial cells.
361 11912219 The results suggest that AGE disturbed glomerular homeostasis by inducing apoptotic cell death in mesangial cells and elicited hyperfiltration and microalbuminuria by stimulating the secretion of VEGF and MCP-1 proteins, thereby being involved in the pathogenesis of the early phase of diabetic nephropathy.

377 11912559 Tumor necrosis factor-alpha inhibits insulin-induced increase in endothelial nitric oxide synthase and reduces insulin receptor content and phosphorylation in human aortic endothelial cells.
378 11912559 We have recently demonstrated that insulin also inhibits the expression of intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), 2 major proinflammatory mediators, by human aortic endothelial cells (HAEC) and the proinflammatory mediator, nuclear factor (NF-kappa B), in the nucleus in parallel with an increase in endothelial nitric oxide synthase (e-NOS) expression.
379 11912559 The inhibition of ICAM-1 by insulin is NO dependent.
380 11912559 Because tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a ) is proinflammatory and may thus inhibit the action of insulin at the endothelial cell level, we have now investigated whether TNF-a affects (1) insulin receptor content; (2) insulin receptor (IR) autophosphorylation induced by insulin, and (3) e-NOS expression by the endothelial cells.
381 11912559 TNF-alpha also inhibited tyrosine autophosphorylation of the IR in HAEC induced by insulin and reduced IR beta-subunit protein expression in HAEC.
382 11912559 These effects of insulin and TNF-alpha were independent of cell proliferation, as cell counts did not change with insulin or TNF-alpha.
383 11912559 Although the inhibition of IR autophosphorylation by TNF-alpha is known to occur at the adipocyte level, the data on the inhibitory effect of TNF-alpha on insulin-induced e-NOS expression and IRP contents are novel.
384 11916915 A tendency toward beta-cell de-differentiation was also apparent with palmitate: pyruvate carboxylase and mitochondrial glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase were downregulated, whereas lactate dehydrogenase and fructose 1,6-bisphosphatases were induced.
385 11916915 However, palmitate also increased expression of calcyclin and 25-kDa synaptosomal-associated protein (SNAP25), which control distal secretory processes.
386 11916915 Oleate and palmitate also induced expression of chemokines (MCP-1 and GRO1 oncogene) and genes of the acute phase response (serum amyloid A3).
387 11916915 Increases in transcriptional modulators such as ATF3, CCAAT/enhancer binding protein-beta (C/EBPbeta), C/EBPdelta, and c-fos were also seen.
388 12036387 [Pathophysiological and clinical implications of AT(1) and AT(2) angiotensin II receptors in metabolic disorders: hypercholesterolaemia and diabetes].
389 12036387 The recent demonstration of Ang II AT(2) receptors in the adult kidney and their potential to oppose the vasoconstrictive, antinatriuretic, and profibrotic properties of AT(1) receptors suggests that the balance of intrarenal AT(1) and AT(2) receptors may be important in determining the cellular responses to Ang II in diabetic nephropathy.
390 12036387 Glomerular macrophage recruitment in experimental diabetes occurs via Ang II-stimulated monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1 expression, suggesting that the renin-angiotensin system is an important regulator of local MCP-1 expression, and strongly implicating macrophage recruitment and activation in the pathogenesis of early diabetic glomerular injury.
391 12036387 NF-kappaB activation is related to AT(1) receptor-mediated pathways, and is believed to be dependent on activation of the Rho proteins belonging to the superfamily of low molecular weight guanosine triphosphatases (GTPases) that regulate intracellular signalling.
392 12036387 Preincubation of vascular smooth muscle cells with insulin doubled NF-kappaB transactivation stimulated by Ang II and hyperglycaemia, suggesting a potential mechanism for crosstalk between the renin-angiotensin system and hyperglycaemia.
393 12036387 Therapeutic blockade of Ang II AT(1) receptors in diabetic and hypercholesterolaemic humans by ARBs, with concomitant elevation in plasma and tissue Ang II levels, may provide vascular and renal protection not only by reducing AT(1) receptor-mediated pro-oxidative effects, but also by unopposed AT(2) receptor stimulation.
394 12145160 Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of 25 patients with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes, 10 patients with longstanding type 1 diabetes, and 35 healthy control subjects were examined for expression of the chemokine receptors CXCR4 (naive T-cells), CCR5 and CXCR3 (Th1 associated), and CCR3 and CCR4 (Th2 associated) on CD3+ lymphocytes.
395 12145160 Furthermore, we analyzed chemokine serum levels (monocyte chemoattractant protein [MCP]-1, macrophage inflammatory protein [MIP]-1alpha, MIP-1beta, and RANTES [regulated on activation, normal T-cell expressed and secreted]) and phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-stimulated cytokine secretion of Th1- (gamma-interferon [IFN-gamma] and tumor necrosis factor-alpha [TNF-alpha]) and Th2 (interleukin [IL]-4 and -10)-associated cytokines by PBMC.
396 12145160 The PBMCs of patients with newly diagnosed but not with longstanding type 1 diabetes showed reduced expression of the Th1-associated chemokine receptors CCR5 (P < 0.001 vs. control subjects) and CXCR3 (P < 0.002 vs. control subjects).
397 12145160 This reduction correlated with reduced IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha production of PBMCs after PHA stimulation and reversed 6-12 months after diagnosis to normal levels.
398 12145160 CCR4 cells were reduced in both newly diagnosed and longstanding type 1 diabetic patients, which correlated to reduced PHA-stimulated IL-4 production.
399 12145160 MIP-1alpha and MIP-1beta levels were considerably elevated in a subgroup of patients with newly diagnosed diabetes.
400 12404203 We measured serum levels of CC chemokines, including monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and macrophage inflammatory protein 1a and 1b (MIP-1a and MIP-1b) in 32 women with chronic autoimmune thyroiditis in comparison with 2 control groups (33 apparently healthy women and 43 women with benign cold thyroid nodules) by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
401 12404203 There was no association between serum MCP-1 levels and serum free thyroxine index (P =.57), triiodothyronine (T(3)) (P =.47) or thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) (P =.47) levels.

404 12411463 Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) ligands are widely used in patients with insulin resistance and diabetes.
405 12411463 Pioglitazone did not reduce local expression of MCP-1 but markedly attenuated increased expression of the MCP-1 receptor C-C chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2) in lesional and circulating monocytes.
406 12411463 PPARgamma activation with pioglitazone prevented coronary arteriosclerosis, possibly by its antiinflammatory effects (downregulation of CCR2 in circulating monocytes).
407 12505750 To test this hypothesis, we examined urinary excretion levels of MCP-1 and N-acetylglucosaminidase (NAG), a sensitive marker of renal tubular damage, in Japanese Type II diabetic patients with normoalbuminuria (n=29), microalbuminuria (n=25), and macroalbuminuria (n=18).
408 12505750 Furthermore, the urinary MCP-1 excretion level was positively correlated with urinary excretion levels of albumin (r=.816, P<.001) and NAG (r=.569, P<.001) in all subjects.

410 12505750 Furthermore, the urinary MCP-1 excretion level was positively correlated with urinary excretion levels of albumin (r=.816, P<.001) and NAG (r=.569, P<.001) in all subjects.
411 12505865 A good correlation was seen between the change in urinary oxidized albumin and MCP-1 levels (r = 0.61, P = 0.012).
412 12540607 In the present study, the transcriptional regulation by cytokines of the rat MCP-1 gene in fluorescence-activated cell sorting-purified rat beta-cells, insulin-producing INS-1E cells, and RINm5F cells was investigated.

483 12756299 Monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 in obesity and insulin resistance.
484 12756299 This study identifies monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) as an insulin-responsive gene.
485 12756299 It also shows that insulin induces substantial expression and secretion of MCP-1 both in vitro in insulin-resistant (IR) 3T3-L1 adipocytes and in vivo in IR obese mice (ob/ob).

627 15277394 Coincubation of GPVI-stimulated platelets resulted in substantial enhanced endothelial surface expression of CD62P, alphavbeta3, and intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (P < 0.05) and secretion of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 of cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (P < 0.01).
628 15277394 These results suggest that the function of collagen receptor GPVI is altered in type 2 diabetes and may play an important role in atherothrombotic complications.

647 15297385 On endothelial cells, ligation of receptor for AGE (RAGE) by AGEs induces the expression of cell adhesion molecules, tissue factor, cytokines such as interleukin-6, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1.
648 15297438 The aims of this study were to clarify whether common mechanisms are involved in FFA- and cytokine-induced beta-cell apoptosis and determine whether TNFalpha, an adipocyte-derived cytokine, potentiates FFA toxicity through enhanced NF-kappaB activation.
649 15297438 Apoptosis was induced in insulinoma (INS)-1E cells, rat islets, and fluorescence-activated cell sorting-purified beta-cells by oleate, palmitate, and/or cytokines (IL-1beta, interferon-gamma, TNFalpha).
650 15297438 The NF-kappaB-dependent genes inducible nitric oxide synthase and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 were induced by IL-1beta but not by FFAs.
651 15297438 Moreover, FFAs did not enhance NF-kappaB activation by TNFalpha.

753 16046295 Thus, treatment with pioglitazone reduces expression of CD68 and MCP-1 in adipose tissue, apparently by reducing macrophage numbers, resulting in reduced inflammatory cytokine production and improvement in S(I).
754 16046295 Expression of CD68 and macrophage chemoattractant protein-1 genes in human adipose and muscle tissues: association with cytokine expression, insulin resistance, and reduction by pioglitazone.
755 16046295 To examine the role of adipose-resident macrophages in insulin resistance, we examined the gene expression of CD68, a macrophage marker, along with macrophage chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) in human subcutaneous adipose tissue using real-time RT-PCR.
756 16046295 Both CD68 and MCP-1 mRNAs were expressed in human adipose tissue, primarily in the stromal vascular fraction.
757 16046295 When measured in the adipose tissue from subjects with normal glucose tolerance, covering a wide range of BMI (21-51 kg/m2) and insulin sensitivity (S(I)) (0.6-8.0 x 10(-4)min(-1).microU(-1).ml(-1)), CD68 mRNA abundance, which correlated with the number of CD68-positive cells by immunohistochemistry, tended to increase with BMI but was not statistically significant.
758 16046295 In addition, there was a strong positive relationship among adipose tissue CD68 mRNA, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) secretion in vitro (r=0.79, P<0.005), and plasma interleukin-6 (r=0.67, P < 0.005).
759 16046295 Pioglitazone increased S(I) by 60% and in the same subjects reduced both CD68 and MCP-1 mRNAs by >50%.
760 16046295 Furthermore, pioglitazone resulted in a reduction in the number of CD68-positive cells in adipose tissue and reduced plasma TNF-alpha.
761 16046295 Thus, treatment with pioglitazone reduces expression of CD68 and MCP-1 in adipose tissue, apparently by reducing macrophage numbers, resulting in reduced inflammatory cytokine production and improvement in S(I).
762 16046307 Whole islets from STAT-1-/- mice were completely resistant to interferon (IFN)-gamma (studied in combination with interleukin [IL]-1beta)-mediated cell death (92 +/- 4% viable cells in STAT-1-/- mice vs. 56 +/- 3% viable cells in wild-type controls, P < or = 0.001) and had preserved insulin release after exposure to IL-1beta and IFN-gamma.
763 16046307 Deficiency of STAT-1 in islets completely prevented cytokine-induced upregulation of IL-15, interferon inducible protein 10, and inducible nitric oxide synthase transcription but did not interfere with monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 and macrophage inflammatory protein 3alpha expression.
764 16046307 In conclusion, the present results indicate that STAT-1 is a crucial transcription factor in the process of IFN-gamma-mediated beta-cell death and the subsequent development of immune-mediated diabetes.

769 16084517 Acute phase reactants IL-6 (pre: 1.7+/-0.3, change: +0.25+/-0.7 pg/ml, +4%, p=0.58) and high sensitivity C-reactive protein (pre: 2.1+/-0.5, change: -0.25+/-0.4 mg/l, -9%, p=0.54) did not change in response to training.
770 16123369 We investigated the activation state of peripheral blood monocytes in diabetes with respect to scavenger receptor (CD36) expression and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, intracellular adhesion molecule-1, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors mRNA expression.
771 16123369 Both CD68 and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma gene expression were increased in the poorly controlled diabetic group (P < 0.05 for each), whose monocytes also displayed increased attachment to endothelial monolayers (P < 0.0005 vs. nondiabetic control subjects).
772 16125534 At 0 and 12 weeks in both the atorvastatin group (10 mg/d; n=17) and the no-drug group (n=10), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1, plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI)-1, and fibrinogen were measured.
773 16125534 Although MCP-1, PAI-1, and fibrinogen did not decrease in the atorvastatin patients overall, the decrease of MCP-1 was significant in women (n=10; from 241.9+/-45.8 to 215.4+/-49.5 pg/mL, P=.0332).

832 16174288 High glucose (HG) induces cellular ROS through protein kinase C (PKC)-dependent activation of NADPH oxidase and through mitochondrial metabolism.
833 16174288 ROS thus generated activate signal transduction cascade (PKC, mitogen-activated protein kinases, and janus kinase/signal transducers and activators of transcription) and transcription factors (nuclear factor-kappaB, activated protein-1, and specificity protein-1), up-regulate transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1), angiotensin II (Ang II), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) gene and protein expression, and promote formation of advanced glycation end-products (AGE).

835 16186390 Here, we examine the effect of endostatin peptide, a potent inhibitor of angiogenesis derived from type XVIII collagen, in preventing progression in the type 1 diabetic nephropathy mouse model.
836 16186390 Glomerular mesangial matrix expansion, the increase of glomerular type IV collagen, endothelial area (CD31(+)), and F4/80(+) monocyte/macrophage accumulation were significantly inhibited by endostatin peptide.

840 16198619 Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) is a nuclear transcription factor that comprises the primary molecular target for thiazolidinedione (TZD) insulin-sensitizing drugs.
841 16198619 Thus, TZDs have been shown to reduce plasma levels of the chemokine, monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), the anti-fibrinolytic protein, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), the endothelial cell adhesion molecules, e-selectin and inter-cellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), the leucocyte-activating molecule, CD40L, and the tissue-remodeling enzyme, matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9).
842 16198619 Further tangible evidence of a reduction by TZDs of systemic inflammation in patients with the classical metabolic syndrome stems from falls in the white blood cell count, P-selectin-positive platelets and in the acute-phase inflammatory proteins, C-reactive protein, serum amyloid A and fibrinogen.
843 16198619 Here, these drugs improve insulin sensitivity for glucose metabolism, reduce hyperinsulinemia, hepatic steatosis, inflammation and fibrosis, and lower the circulating levels of liver transaminases (ALT, AST), alkaline phosphatase and gamma glutamyl transferase.
844 16246049 A number of adipokines, including leptin, adiponectin, tumour necrosis factor alpha, IL-1beta (interleukin 1beta), IL-6, monocyte chemotactic protein-1, macrophage migration inhibitory factor, nerve growth factor, vascular endothelial growth factor, plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 and haptoglobin, are linked to inflammation and the inflammatory response.
845 16249450 It has been recently suggested that high glucose-induced beta-cell apoptosis in type 2 diabetes shares a final common pathway with type 1 diabetes, involving interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) production by beta-cells, nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) activation, and death via Fas-FasL.
846 16249450 The aim of this study was to test whether human islet exposure to high glucose in vitro, or to the type 2 diabetes environment in vivo, induces IL-1beta expression and consequent activation of NF-kappaB-dependent genes.
847 16249450 Culture of the human islets at 11 and 28 mmol/l glucose induced a four- to fivefold increase in medium insulin as compared with 5.6 mmol/l glucose, but neither IL-1beta nor IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) expression changed.
848 16249450 IL-1beta and IL-1ra protein release to the medium was also unchanged.
849 16249450 Expression of the NF-kappaB-dependent genes IkappaB-alpha and monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1 was induced in human islets by IL-1beta but not by high glucose.
850 16249450 The findings on mRNA levels were essentially the same as in the in vitro experiments, namely the in vivo diabetic state did not induce IL-1beta, Fas, or MCP-1 expression in human islets, and also did not modify IL-1ra expression.
851 16249450 The present findings suggest that high glucose in vitro, or the diabetic milieu in vivo, does not induce IL-1beta production or NF-kappaB activation in human islets.

864 16305070 Basal levels of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) were not different among study groups; however, the metabolic syndrome cohort had a trend towards increased circulating levels of MCP-1 after PCI.
865 16306362 FFA-induced hepatic insulin resistance was associated with increased hepatic diacylglycerol content (+210%), increased activities of two serine/threonine kinases (protein kinase C-delta and inhibitor of kappaB [IkappaB] kinase-beta), increased activation of the proinflammatory nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) pathway (IkappaB kinase-beta, +640%; IkappaB-alpha, -54%; and NF-kappaB, +73%), and increased expression of inflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor-alpha, +1,700% and interleukin-1beta, +440%) and plasma levels of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (+220%).
866 16324921 High-sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), plasminogen activator inhibitor 1, monocyte chemotactic protein 1, interleukin 6, urine albumin-creatinine ratio, hemoglobin A(1c), total cholesterol, and LDL-C were measured at baseline and after 8 and 16 weeks of treatment.
867 16324921 Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1, monocyte chemotactic protein 1, and interleukin 6 were not changed.
868 16324921 High-sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), plasminogen activator inhibitor 1, monocyte chemotactic protein 1, interleukin 6, urine albumin-creatinine ratio, hemoglobin A(1c), total cholesterol, and LDL-C were measured at baseline and after 8 and 16 weeks of treatment.
869 16324921 Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1, monocyte chemotactic protein 1, and interleukin 6 were not changed.
870 16332931 The increase in UAE in the diabetes group was associated with a significant reduction in the expression of slit diaphragm-associated molecules compared with control (nephrin; P < 0.05 and podocin; P < 0.005) that was reversed by ATL146e treatment.
871 16332931 Diabetes led to an increase in urinary excretion of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (705% of control), TNF-alpha (1,586% of control), IFN-gamma (298% of control), kidney fibronectin mRNA (457% of control), and glomerular infiltration of macrophages (764% of control), effects significantly reduced by ATL146e treatment.
872 16341265 Although adipose tissue expression and circulating concentrations of CCL2 (also known as MCP1), a high-affinity ligand for CCR2, are elevated in obesity, the role of CCR2 in metabolic disorders, including insulin resistance, hepatic steatosis, and inflammation associated with obesity, has not been studied.
873 16341265 In obese mice matched for adiposity, Ccr2 deficiency reduced macrophage content and the inflammatory profile of adipose tissue, increased adiponectin expression, ameliorated hepatic steatosis, and improved systemic glucose homeostasis and insulin sensitivity.
874 16341265 In mice with established obesity, short-term treatment with a pharmacological antagonist of CCR2 lowered macrophage content of adipose tissue and improved insulin sensitivity without significantly altering body mass or improving hepatic steatosis.
875 16341265 These data suggest that CCR2 influences the development of obesity and associated adipose tissue inflammation and systemic insulin resistance and plays a role in the maintenance of adipose tissue macrophages and insulin resistance once obesity and its metabolic consequences are established.
876 16352667 Plasma adiponectin (P < 0.001) increased, and C-reactive protein (P < 0.05), IL-6 (P < 0.01), IL-8 (P < 0.05), and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (P < 0.01) decreased.

879 16368716 Pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) is an endogenous antiinflammatory factor.

881 16368716 Intravitreal injection of PEDF significantly reduced vascular hyper-permeability in rat models of diabetes and oxygen-induced retinopathy, correlating with the decreased levels of retinal inflammatory factors, including VEGF, VEGF receptor-2, MCP-1, TNF-alpha, and ICAM-1.
882 16368716 In cultured retinal capillary endothelial cells, PEDF significantly decreased TNF-alpha and ICAM-1 expression under hypoxia.
883 16368716 Moreover, down-regulation of PEDF expression by siRNA resulted in significantly increases of VEGF and TNF-alpha secretion in retinal Müller cells.

952 16504838 Association between circulating monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 and urinary albumin excretion in nonobese Type 2 diabetic patients.
953 16504838 In 70 nonobese inpatients with Type 2 diabetes [body mass index (BMI): 24.0+/-4.4 kg/m(2)], we examined circulating monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP) -1 as a candidate marker of atherosclerosis by comparison with established markers: serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), plasma fibrinogen, and combined carotid artery intimal-medial thickness (IMT).
954 16504838 In addition, an association was sought between circulating MCP-1 and urinary albumin excretion (UAE), reflecting diabetic renal microangiopathy.
955 16504838 No correlation of MCP-1 was observed with age, duration of diabetes, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), hemoglobin (Hb) A(1C), BMI, diastolic blood pressure (DBP), or serum lipid concentrations, but significant correlations were found with systolic blood pressure (SBP; R=.2723, P=.0225) and with log(10)-transformed (log) UAE (R=.3343, P=.0047).

968 16505207 We tested the hypothesis that blockade of angiotensin II type 1 receptors reduces oxidative stress markers in parallel with urinary albumin and type IV collagen excretions.
969 16505207 Treatment with ARB (candesartan 8 mg/day, n=11 or valsartan 80 mg/day, n=22) for 8 weeks reduced the levels of plasma monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, interleukin 6, urinary 8-epi-prostaglandin F2alpha, 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine, albumin, and type IV collagen, whereas the levels of these markers were not altered with trichlormethiazide (2 mg/day).
970 16505207 Significant correlation was observed between the reduction of the urinary 8-epi- prostaglandin F2alpha and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine and those of the urinary albumin and type IV collagen.
971 16505242 Fasting blood was obtained for biomarkers of inflammation (C-reactive protein [CRP], plasma-soluble cell adhesion molecules [CAMs], monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, nitrotyrosine, CD40 ligand [CD40L], and monocyte function).
972 16505242 Thus type 1 diabetes is a proinflammatory state, as evidenced by increased levels of monocyte IL-6, superoxide anion, and plasma CRP, sICAM, sCD40L, and nitrotyrosine levels.
973 16534530 Circulating levels of MCP-1 and IL-8 are elevated in human obese subjects and associated with obesity-related parameters.
974 16551628 An inhibitor of Src kinase, PP2, significantly blocked S100B-induced activation of Src kinase, mitogen-activated protein kinases, transcription factors NF-kappaB and STAT3, superoxide production, tyrosine phosphorylation of Cav-1, VSMC migration, and expression of the pro-inflammatory genes monocyte chemotactic protein-1 and interleukin-6.
975 16556731 Cytokines, such as IL-1beta and TNF-alpha, contribute to pancreatic beta-cell death in type 1 diabetes mellitus.
976 16556731 To clarify the reasons behind the proapoptotic effects of NF-kappaB in pancreatic beta-cells, we compared the pattern of cytokine-induced NF-kappaB activation between rat insulin-producing cells (INS-1E cells) and fibroblasts (208F cells).
977 16556731 NF-kappaB activation was induced in INS-1E cells and in 208F cells after exposure to cytokines, but apoptosis was induced only in INS-1E cells, with a more pronounced proapoptotic effect of IL-1beta than of TNF-alpha.
978 16556731 NF-kappaB activation in IL-1beta-exposed INS-1E cells was earlier and more marked as compared with TNF-alpha-exposed INS-1E cells or IL-1beta-exposed 208F cells.
979 16556731 Both cytokines induced a prolonged (up to 48 h) and stable NF-kappaB activation in INS-1E cells, whereas IL-1beta induced an oscillatory NF-kappaB activation in 208F cells. p65/p65 and p65/p50 were the predominant NF-kappaB dimers in IL-1beta-exposed INS-1E cells and 208F cells, respectively.
980 16556731 IL-1beta induced a differential usage of cis-elements in the inducible nitric oxide synthase promoter region in the two cell-lines and an increase in ERK1/2 activity in INS-1E cells but not in 208F cells.
981 16556731 Cytokine-induced expression of IkappaB isoforms and other NF-kappaB target genes (Fas, MCP-1, and inducible nitric oxide synthase) was severalfold higher in INS-1E cells than in 208F cells.
982 16556731 These results suggest that cytokine-induced NF-kappaB activation in insulin-producing cells is more rapid, marked, and sustained than in fibroblasts, which correlates with a more pronounced activation of downstream genes and a proapoptotic outcome.

984 16563350 Secretion of IL-6, IL-8, MIP-1alpha/beta, and MCP-1 by adipocytes was found to be downregulated by adiponectin.

1002 16600694 Aspirin and PPAR-alpha activators inhibit monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 expression induced by high glucose concentration in human endothelial cells.
1003 16600694 Since accelerated atherosclerosis is the main complication of diabetes and both diseases encompass an inflammatory reaction, we hypothesized that the anti-inflammatory drugs, aspirin and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR-alpha) activators (fenofibrate and clofibrate), could have an effect on the high glucose-induced MCP-1 expression in endothelial cells.
1004 16600694 To test this assumption, as well as the possible mechanisms involved, the MCP-1 expression and secretion, the reactive oxygen species levels, nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB) and activator protein-1 (AP-1) expression were determined in human endothelial cells exposed to high glucose concentrations in the presence of aspirin, fenofibrate and clofibrate.
1005 16600694 The results showed that (i) aspirin, fenofibrate and clofibrate decrease significantly the MCP-1 expression and secretion in human endothelial cells; (ii) the high glucose up-regulated expression of MCP-1 in endothelial cells was significantly reduced by inhibitors of NF-kB and reactive oxygen species; (iii) all drugs notably decrease the level of the reactive oxygen species and activation of NF-kB and AP-1.
1006 16600694 Together, the findings indicate that in endothelial cells aspirin and PPAR-alpha activators reduce the high glucose-increased expression of MCP-1 by a mechanism that includes the inhibition of reactive oxygen species, and decrease of AP-1 and NF-kB activation.

1009 16600694 To test this assumption, as well as the possible mechanisms involved, the MCP-1 expression and secretion, the reactive oxygen species levels, nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB) and activator protein-1 (AP-1) expression were determined in human endothelial cells exposed to high glucose concentrations in the presence of aspirin, fenofibrate and clofibrate.

1031 16617122 A novel ubiquitin fold modifier (Ufm1) that has not been previously associated with ER stress and not found to be induced under any condition was also found to be upregulated in the hearts of MCP mice (transgenic mice that express MCP-1 specifically in the heart).

1147 16919544 Normal glucose tolerance without IR had the lowest values of CRP, IL-6, and VCAM-1 (CRP, 1.32 mg/L; IL-6, 12.56 pg/mL; VCAM-1, 277 pg/mL) followed by normal glucose tolerance with IR (CRP, 2.25 mg/L; IL-6, 20.97 pg/mL; VCAM-1, 289 pg/mL), impaired glucose tolerance (CRP, 2.37 mg/L; IL-6, 22.11 pg/mL; VCAM-1, 335 pg/mL), newly diagnosed diabetic subjects (CRP, 3.24 mg/L; IL-6, 23.21 pg/mL; VCAM-1, 568 pg/mL), and the highest levels were in the known diabetic subjects (CRP, 4.08 mg/L; IL-6, 29.44 pg/mL; VCAM-1, 577 pg/mL).
1148 16919544 In nondiabetic subjects, Pearson correlation analysis revealed that CRP (r = 0.299; P < .001) and IL-6 (r = 0.180, P = .025) had a significant correlation with HOMA-IR.
1149 16919544 Multiple linear regression analysis revealed CRP to be significantly associated with HOMA-IR (beta = .229; P < .001) and this was unaltered by the addition of waist and IL-6 into the model (beta = .158; P = .028).
1150 16919544 In conclusion, this study shows that in Asian Indians, inflammatory markers (CRP, IL-6, and VCAM-1) increase with increasing degrees of glucose intolerance.

1157 16936191 We recently discovered that CD40, a member of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor family, is expressed in pancreatic beta-cells.
1158 16936191 Islet beta-cells responded to CD40L interaction by secreting interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, and macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1beta, the latter a chemokine first reported to be produced by islets.
1159 16936191 Induction of IL-8 and MIP-1beta was confirmed at the transcriptional level by quantitative RT-PCR.
1160 16936191 CD40-CD40L interaction activates extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 and nuclear factor-kappaB pathways in insulinoma NIT-1 cells, and inhibitors of either pathway suppress cytokine/chemokine production in islets.
1161 16936191 Moreover, ligation of CD40 receptor upregulates intercellular adhesion molecule-1, associated with inflammation, at both transcriptional and translational levels.
1162 16936207 Expression of enzymes involved in ceramide generation (neutral sphingomyelinase [NSMase], acid sphingomyelinase [ASMase], and serine-palmitoyl-transferase [SPT]) and ceramide hydrolysis (ceramidase) are elevated in obese adipose tissues.
1163 16936207 Our data also suggest that hyperinsulinemia and elevated tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha associated with obesity may contribute to the observed increase in adipose NSMase, ASMase, and SPT mRNA in this murine model of obesity.
1164 16936207 In cultured adipocytes, ceramide, sphingosine, and S1P induced gene expression of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, TNF-alpha, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, interleukin-6, and keratinocyte-derived chemokine.
1165 16939660 Adiponectin-induced secretion of interleukin-6 (IL-6), monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1, CCL2) and interleukin-8 (IL-8, CXCL8) is impaired in monocytes from patients with type I diabetes.

1187 17003237 Calcium receptor stimulates chemotaxis and secretion of MCP-1 in GnRH neurons in vitro: potential impact on reduced GnRH neuron population in CaR-null mice.
1188 17003237 We studied whether the extracellular calcium-sensing receptor (CaR) promotes migration/chemotaxis of GnRH neurons.
1189 17003237 We also demonstrated expression of a beta-chemokine, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), and its receptor, CC motif receptor-2 (CCR2), in the hypothalamic GnRH neurons as well as in GT1-7 and GN11 cells.

1207 17011788 Effect of atorvastatin on soluble CD14, CD40 Ligand, sE- and sP-selectins and MCP-1 in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: relationship to cholesterol turnover.
1208 17014667 Our study found significantly elevated expression of transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) and type I TGF-beta receptors (TGFbetaR1), granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), and epidermal growth factor (EGF) in keratinocytes in the ulcer margin (p < 0.05).
1209 17014667 Significantly increased expression of monocyte chemotactic protein-1, GM-CSF, CXCR1, and TGFbetaRI and decreased expression of interleukin (IL)-10, IL-15, and TGF-beta1 were observed in ulcer dermal endothelial cells (p < 0.05).
1210 17014667 There was a lack of up-regulation of IL-8, CCR2A, IL-10 receptor, GM-CSF receptor, platelet-derived growth factors and their receptors, vascular endothelial growth factor and its type II receptor, EGF receptor, insulin-like growth factor-1, and nitric oxide synthase-2 in both KCs and endothelial cells in the ulcer.

1212 17027526 The central theme of this chapter is that human adipose tissue is a potent source of inflammatory interleukins plus other cytokines and that the majority of this release is due to the nonfat cells in the adipose tissue except for leptin and adiponectin that are primarily secreted by adipocytes.
1213 17027526 Human adipocytes secrete at least as much plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), MCP-1, interleukin-8 (IL-8), and IL-6 in vitro as they do leptin but the nonfat cells of adipose tissue secrete even more of these proteins.
1214 17027526 The amount of serum amyloid A proteins 1 & 2 (SAA 1 & 2), haptoglobin, nerve growth factor (NGF), macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), and PAI-1 secreted by the adipocytes derived from a gram of adipose tissue is 144%, 75%, 72%, 37%, and 23%, respectively, of that by the nonfat cells derived from the same amount of human adipose tissue.
1215 17027526 However, the release of IL-8, MCP-1, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), TGF-beta1, IL-6, PGE(2), TNF-alpha, cathepsin S, hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), IL-1beta, IL-10, resistin, C-reactive protein (CRP), and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) by adipocytes is less than 12% of that by the nonfat cells present in human adipose tissue.
1216 17027526 Obesity markedly elevates the total release of TNF-alpha, IL-6, and IL-8 by adipose tissue but only that of TNF-alpha is enhanced in adipocytes.
1217 17027526 Visceral adipose tissue also releases more VEGF, resistin, IL-6, PAI-1, TGF-beta1, IL-8, and IL-10 per gram of tissue than does abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue.
1218 17027526 In conclusion, there is an increasing recognition that adipose tissue is an endocrine organ that secretes leptin and adiponectin along with a host of other paracrine and endocrine factors in addition to free fatty acids.

1231 17142129 Glomerular macrophage infiltration and expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, malondialdehyde (MDA), nitrotyrosine, transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-beta1), and type I collagen were evaluated.
1232 17142129 Protein and gene expression levels of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, TGF-beta1, and type I collagen, which were evaluated by immunohistochemistry and real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction, were down-regulated in the EPA treatment group.
1233 17142129 Glomerular macrophage infiltration and expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, malondialdehyde (MDA), nitrotyrosine, transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-beta1), and type I collagen were evaluated.
1234 17142129 Protein and gene expression levels of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, TGF-beta1, and type I collagen, which were evaluated by immunohistochemistry and real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction, were down-regulated in the EPA treatment group.
1235 17151295 The main cytokines involved in the pathogenesis of T2D are interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), with an action similar to the one present in type 1 diabetes, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), and IL-6, considered as the main regulators of inflammation, leptin, more recently introduced, and several others, such as monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, resistin, adiponectin, with either deleterious or beneficial effects in diabetic pathogenesis.
1236 17166616 The total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and the mRNAs expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1, intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 and CD36 mRNA in aorta were determined.
1237 17166616 The results demonstrated that DBT could regulate blood lipid, inhibit the genes expression of MCP-1, ICAM-1 and CD36 in aorta.
1238 17170102 The role of 12/15-lipoxygenase in the expression of interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha in macrophages.
1239 17170102 To study the role of 12/15-LO in cytokine expression, experiments with direct additions of the12/15-LO products, 12(S)-hydroxyeicosa tetraenoic acid or 12(S)-hydroperoxyeicosa-5Z, 8Z, 10E, or 14Z-tetraenoic acid to macrophages were first carried out, and results showed that the 12/15-LO products stimulated mRNA and protein expression of IL-6 and TNF-alpha in a dose-dependent manner.
1240 17170102 The results showed a clear increase in IL-6 and TNF-alpha expression in Plox-86 cells and MPMs from 12/15-LO transgenic mice, compared with mock-transfected J774A.1 cells and MPMs from control C57BL6 mice.
1241 17170102 IL-1beta, IL-12, and monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1 mRNA were also increased in Plox-86 cells.
1242 17170102 We also demonstrated that signaling pathways including protein kinase C, p38 MAPK (p38), c-jun NH(2)-terminal kinase as well as nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase are important for 12-(S)-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid-induced increases in IL-6 and TNF-alpha gene expression.
1243 17183659 Its transcriptional and functional similarity with the murine myeloid-specific and CCAAT/enhancer binding protein epsilon (Cebpe)-dependent gene, resistin-like gamma (Retnlg), is unexplored.
1244 17183659 Real-time RT-PCR analysis demonstrated lack of both the transcriptional factor CEBPE and RETN expression in adipose and muscle cells.
1245 17183659 Mouse Cebpe and Retnlg were predictably expressed in macrophages, whereas Retn was abundant in adipocytes.
1246 17183659 Quite the opposite, a low and inconsistent RETN transcription was seen in some human white adipose tissue (WAT) biopsies without any relationship to body mass index, insulin sensitivity, or fat depot.
1247 17183659 However, in these cases, RETN was co-detected with CEBPE and the leukocyte-specific marker, EMR1, indicating the presence of inflammatory cells and their possible resistin-mediated effect on adipocytes.
1248 17183659 Indeed, addition of human resistin to WAT in culture induced, like in PBMC, the inflammatory cytokines IL6, IL8 and TNF.
1249 17183659 Importantly, the expression of the adipose-specific markers CEBPA, FABP4 and SLC2A4 was unchanged, while the expected inhibitory effect was seen with TNF.

1400 17442272 Also other cytokines like MCP-1 and resistin are involved in the inflammatory process and are secreted by macrophages.
1401 17442272 In the present study, we show that while TNFalpha is able to maintain an active Wnt-signaling, induce inflammation and completely block adipose cell differentiation, no effect was found by either MCP-1 or resistin on these processes.
1402 17445545 The aim of the present study was to evaluate plasma interleukin 6 (IL-6), adiponectin, resistin, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), and monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) levels in patients with AI.
1403 17445545 Plasma IL-6, adiponectin, resistin, TNF-alpha, and MCP-1 levels were measured in 20 healthy subjects (6 males; 14 females; age, 58.5 +/- 2.2 years; body mass index, 28.1 +/- 0.9 kg/m(2)) and in 20 patients (5 males; 15 females; age, 57.9 +/- 2.0 years; body mass index, 28.0 +/- 0.8 kg/m(2)) with AI and typical computed tomographic features of cortical adenoma, who were not affected by diabetes mellitus, hypertension, or other relevant diseases.
1404 17445545 Plasma IL-6, adiponectin, resistin, TNF-alpha, and MCP-1 levels were higher in patients than in controls (64.4 +/- 2.8 vs 5.5 +/- 0.6 pg/mL, 13.7 +/- 1.3 vs 3.6 +/- 0.5 microg/mL, 12.5 +/- 1.9 vs 5.1 +/- 0.2 ng/mL, 27.0 +/- 1.5 vs 22.2 +/- 1.5 pg/mL, 172.5 +/- 20.0 vs 104.4 +/- 19.5 pg/mL, respectively; P < .05) and apparently not affected by the presence of visceral obesity.

1414 17447160 Differentiated skeletal muscle cells were incubated for 24-72 hours with high concentrations of glucose and insulin (GI) or TNFalpha.
1415 17447160 In addition, myocytes were co-stimulated with monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP)-1 or adipocyte-conditioned medium (CM) and TNFalpha for 24 and 48 hours.
1416 17447160 Treatment with GI rapidly induced insulin resistance whereas TNFalpha impaired insulin signaling in a more chronic fashion (48-72 h).
1417 17447160 CM and MCP-1 also induced insulin resistance that was, however, not increased by co-stimulation with TNFalpha.
1418 17447160 Expression of CCR2 was decreased during differentiation but up-regulated in insulin-resistant myocytes after treatment with GI (24-72 h) and TNFalpha (72 h).

1438 17452168 Elevated ICAM-1 and MCP-1 plasma levels in subjects at high cardiovascular risk are diminished by atorvastatin treatment.
1439 17467667 Palmitic acid induces IP-10 expression in human macrophages via NF-kappaB activation.
1440 17467667 Palmitic acid (PA), the predominant saturated FFA released from adipose tissue, but not unsaturated FFA, induced an approximately 6-fold (p<0.05) increase in IP-10 gene expression (and 2- to 4-fold increases in IL-8, MCP-1, COX-2, and MIG).
1441 17467667 PA also induced an approximately 2-fold increase (p<0.05) in active NF-kappaB, and two structurally distinct NF-kappaB inhibitors effectively blocked PA-induced IP-10 gene expression.
1442 17467667 These results suggest that elevated concentrations of PA commonly present in obese and insulin resistant individuals can increase NF-kappaB-mediated expression of IP-10 in macrophages.
1443 17473219 CCL2(-/-) mice on standard and high-fat diet were also glucose intolerant and had mildly increased plasma glucose and decreased serum adiponectin levels compared with wild-type mice.

1463 17507908 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 targeting of NF-kappaB suppresses high glucose-induced MCP-1 expression in mesangial cells.
1464 17507908 Electrophoretic mobility shift and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays showed that HG increased the p65/p50 binding to the two NF-kappaB sites within the promoter.
1465 17507908 This was suppressed by 1,25(OH)2D3, but this decrease was reversed by overexpression of p65. 1,25(OH)2D3 was found to stabilize IkappaBalpha leading to an inhibition of p65 translocation to the nucleus and subsequent reduction of NF-kappaB binding.
1466 17507908 In primary MCs prepared from vitamin D receptor knockout animals, basal MCP-1 levels were elevated but not affected by 1,25(OH)2D3.

1471 17515919 Macrophage-specific PPARgamma controls alternative activation and improves insulin resistance.
1472 17515919 For instance, transgenic expression of Mcp1 (also known as chemokine ligand 2, Ccl2) in adipose tissue increases macrophage infiltration, inflammation and insulin resistance.
1473 17515919 Conversely, disruption of Mcp1 or its receptor Ccr2 impairs migration of macrophages into adipose tissue, thereby lowering adipose tissue inflammation and improving insulin sensitivity.
1474 17515919 Disruption of PPARgamma in myeloid cells impairs alternative macrophage activation, and predisposes these animals to development of diet-induced obesity, insulin resistance, and glucose intolerance.

1479 17533652 OptiBerry also significantly inhibited basal MCP-1 and inducible NF-kappabeta transcriptions as well as the inflammatory biomarker IL-8, and significantly reduced the ability to form hemangioma and markedly decreased EOMA cell-induced tumor growth in an in vivo model.
1480 17563062 However, other adipocyte-derived factors, e.g., hyaluronan and serum amyloid A (SAA), can facilitate monocyte adhesion and chemotaxis, respectively.
1481 17563062 Nuclear factor-kappaB was upregulated and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)gamma was downregulated in hypertrophic 3T3-L1 cells, with increased expression of SAA3 and increased hyaluronan production.
1482 17563062 Hypertrophic adipocytes demonstrated overexpression of SAA3 and hyaluronan synthase 2 in vitro and in vivo in diet-induced and genetic obesity.
1483 17563062 This complex, purified by binding to a biotinylated hyaluronan binding protein affinity column, also showed monocyte chemotactic activity, which was dependent on the presence of SAA3 and hyaluronan but independent of MCP-1.
1484 17563062 We hypothesize that adipocyte hypertrophy leads to increased production of SAA and hyaluronan, which act in concert to recruit and retain monocytes, thereby leading to local inflammation in adipose tissue.
1485 17588584 At baseline and during a 28 days observational period MMP-9, MCP1, hsCRP, IL-6, sCD40, and P-selectin were monitored.

1489 17594598 To elucidate the impact of immunological factors in development of these neuropathies the expression of some cytokines in serum was studied: tumour necrosis factor a (TNF-a), monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) and growth-regulated oncogene alpha (GRO-alpha; CXCL1). 29 patients with type 2 diabetes, 31 with chronic alcohol abuse and 20 healthy controls were included in the study.
1490 17607302 The tubulointerstitial damage, as assessed as morphological changes, osteopontin expression, collagen I deposition and macrophage infiltration, were strikingly less in MK-deficient (Mdk(-/-)) mice than in Mdk(+/+) mice.
1491 17607302 Monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1 expression, but not that of intercellular adhesion molecule-1, was also lower in Mdk(-/-) mice.
1492 17618604 In the disease-specific EC, glucose treatment resulted also in moderately inhibited cell growth by 5-10%, increased basal expression of VCAM-1 by 10-20%, and an enhanced release of monocyte-chemoattractant-protein-1 (MCP-1) by 40-70%.
1493 17618604 The expression of ICAM-1 and E-selectin and the release of IL-6 and IL-8 was not affected.
1494 17631861 Inhibition of MCP-1/CCR2 pathway ameliorates the development of diabetic nephropathy.
1495 17631861 Using a type 1 diabetic nephropathy model that shows noticeable glomerulosclerosis, we examined the role of MCP-1/CCR2 by propagermanium (Pro; CCR2 antagonist) treatment, and confirmed it by transfection of plasmids carrying the 7ND (a mutant of MCP-1) gene.
1496 17631861 We measured the mesangial matrix expansion, type IV collagen (Col4), transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta1 positive area, and macrophage infiltration in glomeruli after 12 weeks.
1497 17631861 Thus blocking the MCP-1/CCR2 pathway ameliorated glomerulosclerosis, indicating that the MCP-1/CCR2 pathway plays a crucial role in the progression of diabetic nephropathy.

1506 17654441 Increased vascular inflammation, including enhanced expression of interleukin- 6 (IL-6), vascular cellular adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP- 1) are observed, as is a marked decrease in NO bioavailability.
1507 17655880 Next we used inhibitors of selected signal transduction pathways to show that high-glucose (HG) stimulated MCP-1 promoter activity was sensitive to p38-Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (p38-MAPK) pathway inhibitor.
1508 17659259 The contribution of nutrient overload and associated inflammation to insulin resistance has highlighted several therapeutic targets including c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and S6 kinase (S6K).
1509 17659259 Administration of 0.06-4 mg/kg LPS to C57BL/6 mice stimulated increases in plasma levels of TNFalpha, IL-12p40, IL-6 and MCP-1 and in JNK activity as measured by phosphorylated c-Jun in fat.
1510 17659259 For the first time, we show that LPS induces S6K activity by up to 6.1-fold, as measured by the phosphorylation of S6 ribosomal protein in liver, and increases by up to 1.8-fold, plasma levels of the novel pro-inflammatory cytokine osteopontin which is implicated in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance.
1511 17664271 Tumor necrosis factor receptor-1 can function through a G alpha q/11-beta-arrestin-1 signaling complex.
1512 17664271 It is well known that chronic TNFalpha exposure can lead to insulin resistance both in vitro and in vivo and that elevated blood levels of TNFalpha are observed in obese and/or diabetic individuals.
1513 17664271 We found that beta-arrestin-1 is associated with TRAF2 (TNF receptor-associated factor 2), an adaptor protein of TNF receptors, and that TNFalpha acutely stimulates tyrosine phosphorylation of G alpha(q/11) with an increase in G alpha(q/11) activity.
1514 17664271 Small interfering RNA-mediated knockdown of beta-arrestin-1 inhibits TNFalpha-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of G alpha(q/11) by interruption of Src kinase activation.
1515 17664271 TNFalpha stimulates lipolysis in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, and beta-arrestin-1 knockdown blocks the effects of TNFalpha to stimulate ERK activation and glycerol release.
1516 17664271 TNFalpha also led to activation of JNK with increased expression of the proinflammatory gene, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 and matrix metalloproteinase 3, and beta-arrestin-1 knockdown inhibited both of these effects.
1517 17664271 Taken together these results reveal novel elements of TNFalpha action; 1) the trimeric G-protein component G alpha(q/11) and the adapter protein beta-arrestin-1 can function as signaling molecules in the TNFalpha action cascade; 2) beta-arrestin-1 can couple TNFalpha stimulation to ERK activation and lipolysis; 3) beta-arrestin-1 and G alpha(q/11) can mediate TNFalpha-induced phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activation and inflammatory gene expression.

1633 18322021 Previously, we have reported that pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) ameliorates albuminuria and inhibits matrix protein deposition in the kidney of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats, suggesting a renoprotective effect of PEDF in early stages of diabetic nephropathy.
1634 18322021 Three wk after the injection, diabetic rats treated with the control virus showed significantly elevated renal levels of proinflammatory factors such as ICAM-1, MCP-1, TNF-alpha, and VEGF compared with age-matched nondiabetic controls.
1635 18322021 In cultured primary human renal mesangial cells (HMC), the high-glucose medium-induced upregulation of VEGF and MCP-1 was largely blocked by PEDF.

1716 18454166 Circulating pro-inflammatory cytokine levels (monocyte chemotactic protein 1, MCP1 and Regulated upon Activation, Normal T-cell Expressed and Secreted, RANTES) were also reduced.
1717 18483477 The aim of this study was to determine whether amyloid precursor protein (APP) is expressed in human adipose tissue, dysregulated in obesity, and related to insulin resistance and inflammation.
1718 18483477 APP expression correlated to in vivo indices of insulin resistance independently of BMI and with the expression of proinflammatory genes, such as monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) (R=0.62, P=0.004), macrophage inflammatory protein-1alpha (MIP-1alpha) (R=0.60, P=0.005), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) (R=0.71, P=0.0005).
1719 18483477 In summary, APP is highly expressed in adipose tissue, upregulated in obesity, and expression levels correlate with insulin resistance and adipocyte cytokine expression levels.
1720 18483477 These data suggest a possible role for APP and/or Abeta in the development of obesity-related insulin resistance and adipose tissue inflammation.
1721 18511057 To determine if adiponectin can modulate lipid metabolism in macrophages, we expressed the adiponectin gene in human THP-1 macrophage foam cells using a lentiviral vector expression system and demonstrated that macrophages transduced with the adiponectin gene had decreased lipid accumulation compared with control macrophages transduced with the LacZ gene.
1722 18511057 The second mechanism involves decreased lipid uptake and increased lipid hydrolysis which may result from decreased SR-AI and increased SR-BI and HSL gene activities in the transformed macrophage foam cells.
1723 18511057 We also demonstrated that the expression of two proatherogenic cytokines, MCP-1 and TNFalpha, were decreased in the adiponectin-transduced macrophage foam cells.

1773 18584041 Acute-phase serum amyloid A as a marker of insulin resistance in mice.
1774 18584041 Acute-phase serum amyloid A (A-SAA) was shown recently to correlate with obesity and insulin resistance in humans.
1775 18584041 Plasma A-SAA elevation was due to induction of Saa1 and Saa2 expression in liver but not in adipose tissue.
1776 18584041 Proinflammatory genes (Ccl2, Saa3) were induced while genes critical for insulin sensitivity (Irs1, Adipoq, Glut4) were down-regulated.
1777 18586837 In this study, these effects, and the protective effects of pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF), were defined in a primary human pericyte model.
1778 18586837 To assess pro-inflammatory effects, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) secretion was measured by ELISA, and nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) activation was detected by immunocytochemistry.
1779 18586837 The results showed that MCP-1 was significantly increased by HOG-LDL, and the effect was attenuated by PEDF in a dose-dependent manner.
1780 18586837 PEDF also attenuated the HOG-LDL-induced NF-kappaB activation, suggesting that the inhibitory effect of PEDF on MCP-1 was at least partially through the blockade of NF-kappaB activation.
1781 18586837 Moreover, PEDF significantly ameliorated HOG-LDL-induced ROS generation through up-regulation of superoxide dismutase 1 expression.
1782 18586837 Suppressing MCP-1 production and thus inhibiting macrophage recruitment may represent a new mechanism for the salutary effect of PEDF in diabetic retinopathy and warrants more studies in future.

1785 18586837 The results showed that MCP-1 was significantly increased by HOG-LDL, and the effect was attenuated by PEDF in a dose-dependent manner.
1786 18586837 PEDF also attenuated the HOG-LDL-induced NF-kappaB activation, suggesting that the inhibitory effect of PEDF on MCP-1 was at least partially through the blockade of NF-kappaB activation.
1787 18586837 Moreover, PEDF significantly ameliorated HOG-LDL-induced ROS generation through up-regulation of superoxide dismutase 1 expression.
1788 18586837 Suppressing MCP-1 production and thus inhibiting macrophage recruitment may represent a new mechanism for the salutary effect of PEDF in diabetic retinopathy and warrants more studies in future.

1807 18619964 Here, we demonstrate that heat shock protein (Hsp) 60, a potent stimulator of innate immunity, induces the release of the inflammatory mediators interleukin-6, CXCL1 and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 in a time- and concentration-dependent manner from cells of the adipocyte line 3T3-L1 and from adipocytes of obese mice.

1873 18780773 In comparison with L subjects, OB subjects exhibited elevated interstitial leptin (P < 0.001), IL-8 (P < 0.05), and IL-18 levels (P = 0.05), as well as higher serum concentrations of leptin (P < 0.0001), IL-6 (P < 0.0001), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (P < 0.001), IL-8 (P = 0.01) and interferon-gamma-inducible protein 10 (P < 0.05).
1874 18780773 In samples from the M1 membranes, leptin decreased and IL-1alpha, IL-18, and RANTES (regulated on activation, normal T-cell expressed and secreted) remained relatively stable, whereas IL-6, IL-8, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 significantly increased after the first hour (P < 0.0001 vs. baseline).
1875 18794817 ARB treatment resulted in modulation of the adipose tissue, leading to an increased number of small, differentiated adipocytes able to produce more adiponectin and less monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1.
1876 18794817 This supports the relevance of the functional interplay between adipose tissue and the renin-angiotensin system in states of insulin resistance.
1877 18809715 We show that transient hyperglycemia induces long-lasting activating epigenetic changes in the promoter of the nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) subunit p65 in aortic endothelial cells both in vitro and in nondiabetic mice, which cause increased p65 gene expression.
1878 18809715 Both the epigenetic changes and the gene expression changes persist for at least 6 d of subsequent normal glycemia, as do NF-kappaB-induced increases in monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 and vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 expression.

1880 18838678 Combination therapy with AT1 blocker and vitamin D analog markedly ameliorates diabetic nephropathy: blockade of compensatory renin increase.
1881 18838678 Here we demonstrated that combination therapy with an AT1 receptor blocker and a vitamin D analog markedly ameliorated renal injury in the streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes model due to the blockade of the compensatory renin rise by the vitamin D analog, leading to more effective RAS inhibition.
1882 18838678 STZ-treated diabetic DBA/2J mice developed progressive albuminuria and glomerulosclerosis within 13 weeks, accompanied by increased intrarenal production of angiotensin (Ang) II, fibronection, TGF-beta, and MCP-1 and decreased expression of slit diaphragm proteins.
1883 18838678 The combined treatment suppressed the induction of fibronection, TGF-beta, and MCP-1 and reversed the decline of slit diaphragm proteins nephrin, Neph-1, ZO-1, and alpha-actinin-4.
1884 18838678 These were accompanied by blockade of intrarenal renin and Ang II accumulation induced by hyperglycemia and losartan.

1890 18842989 The MIF receptor CD74 in diabetic podocyte injury.
1891 18842989 Expression of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is increased in experimental diabetic nephropathy, and increased tubulointerstitial mRNA expression of its receptor, CD74, has been observed in human diabetic nephropathy.
1892 18842989 Whether CD74 transduces MIF signals in podocytes, however, is unknown.
1893 18842989 In cultured human podocytes, CD74 was expressed at the cell surface, was upregulated by high concentrations of glucose and TNF-alpha, and was activated by MIF, leading to phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 and p38.
1894 18842989 In addition, MIF induced the expression of the inflammatory mediators TRAIL and monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 in podocytes and HK2 cells in a p38-dependent manner.
1895 18842989 These data suggest that CD74 acts as a receptor for MIF in podocytes and may play a role in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy.

1905 19022887 Furthermore, overexpression of AP-2beta leads to lipid accumulation by enhancing glucose transport and inducing insulin resistance in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.
1906 19022887 In this study, we found that overexpression of AP-2beta in 3T3-L1 adipocytes accelerated the promoter activity of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and subsequently increased both mRNA and protein expression and protein secretion.
1907 19022887 Furthermore, knockdown of endogenous AP-2beta by RNA interference reduced the mRNA and the protein expression of MCP-1.
1908 19022887 EMSAs and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays revealed specific binding of AP-2beta to MCP-1 promoter regions, in vitro and in vivo.
1909 19022887 Additionally, site-directed mutagenesis of the AP-2 binding site located at -137 to -129 relative to the transcription start site markedly diminished MCP-1 promoter activity, whereas other putative AP-2 binding sites did not.
1910 19022887 Our results clearly show that AP-2beta directly enhanced MCP-1 secretion by binding to its promoter.
1911 19022887 Thus, we propose that AP-2beta positively regulates MCP-1 expression; subsequently contributes to the infiltration of macrophages to adipose tissue; and leads to insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases.

1951 19091959 Sphingosine-1-phosphate inhibits high glucose-mediated ERK1/2 action in endothelium through induction of MAP kinase phosphatase-3.
1952 19091959 We previously reported that Type 1 diabetic NOD mice have increased endothelial activation, with increased production of monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1 and IL-6, and a 30% increase of surface VCAM-1 expression leading to a fourfold increase in monocyte adhesion to the endothelium.
1953 19091959 MKP-3 selectively regulates ERK1/2 activity through dephosphorylation.
1954 19091959 Incubation of diabetic NOD EC with S1P and the S1P(1)-selective agonist SEW2871 significantly increased expression of MKP-3 and reduced ERK1/2 phosphorylation, while incubation with the S1P(1)/S1P(3) antagonist VPC23019 decreased the expression of MKP-3, both results supporting a role for S1P(1) in MKP-3 regulation.
1955 19091959 Overexpression of MKP-3 in glucose-cultured HAEC decreased ERK1/2 phosphorylation and resulted in decreased monocyte:endothelial interactions in a static monocyte adhesion assay.
1956 19091959 Thus, one mechanism for the anti-inflammatory action of S1P in diabetic EC is inhibition of ERK1/2 phosphorylation through induction of MKP-3 expression via the S1P-S1P(1) receptor axis.
1957 19103180 In both cases there were typical signs of disruption of the BBB manifested by the absence of tight junction proteins (occludin, claudin-5, ZO-1 and JAM-1) in the parenchymal blood vessels, as well as albumin extravasation in examined brain areas.

1959 19136982 We have found that decreased high molecular weight (HMW) adiponectin plays a crucial and causal role in obesity-linked insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome; that AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 serve as the major AdipoRs in vivo; and that AdipoR1 activates the AMP kinase (AMPK) pathway and AdipoR2, the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha) pathway in the liver, to increase insulin sensitivity and decrease inflammation.
1960 19136982 Further conclusions are that decreased adiponectin action and increased monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) form a vicious adipokine network causing obesity-linked insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome; PPARgamma upregulates HMW adiponectin and PPARalpha upregulates AdipoRs; that dietary osmotin can serve as a naturally occurring adiponectin receptor agonist; and finally, that under starvation conditions, MMW adiponectin activates AMPK in hypothalamus, and promotes food intake, and at the same time HMW adiponectin activates AMPK in peripheral tissues, such as skeletal muscle, and stimulates fatty-acids combustion.
1961 19136982 Importantly, under pathophysiological conditions, such as obesity and diabetes, only HMW adiponectin was decreased; therefore, strategies to increase only HMW adiponectin may be a logical approach to provide a novel treatment modality for obesity-linked diseases, such as insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.

1974 19299644 Proinflammatory cytokines including tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-6 secreted by adipose tissue during the metabolic syndrome are proposed to cause local and general insulin resistance and promote development of type 2 diabetes.
1975 19299644 Expression and secretion of a set of proinflammatory factors including tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interferon-gamma, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 was increased in adipose tissue of Apoe(-/-)xCD4dnTGFbR mice, as was the enzyme 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1, which converts cortisone to bioactive cortisol.

2182 19747262 A novel gene ZC3H12A, encoding MCP-1-induced protein 1 (MCPIP), was recently identified in human peripheral blood monocytes treated with monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP-1) and in human monocyte-derived macrophages stimulated with interleukin (IL)-1beta.
2183 19747262 These experiments revealed that the gene undergoes rapid and potent transcription induction upon stimulation with proinflammatory molecules, such as MCP-1, IL-1beta, tumour necrosis factor alpha and lipopolysaccharide.
2184 19747262 Here we show that the induction of ZC3H12A by IL-1beta is predominantly NF-kappaB-dependent because inhibition of this signalling pathway results in the impairment of ZC3H12A transcription activation.

2195 19747262 These experiments revealed that the gene undergoes rapid and potent transcription induction upon stimulation with proinflammatory molecules, such as MCP-1, IL-1beta, tumour necrosis factor alpha and lipopolysaccharide.
2196 19747262 Here we show that the induction of ZC3H12A by IL-1beta is predominantly NF-kappaB-dependent because inhibition of this signalling pathway results in the impairment of ZC3H12A transcription activation.
2197 19747262 Our results indicate the presence of an IL-1beta-responding region within the second intron of the ZC3H12A gene, which contains four functional NF-kappaB-binding sites.
2198 19747262 Therefore, we propose that this transcription enhancer transduces a ZC3H12A transcription-inducing signal after IL-1beta stimulation.
2199 19753653 It was shown that the DAA treatment suppressed the production of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) (proinflammatory cytokines) and increased that of adiponectin (an anti-inflammatory cytokine).
2200 19755790 CD40 ligand and MCP-1 as predictors of cardiovascular events in diabetic patients with stroke.
2201 19776174 Activation of the c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway was a likely contributor to the proinflammatory phenotype of aging diabetic mesangial cells since 1) phosphorylated JNK levels and JNK kinase activity were increased in these cells, 2) suppression of JNK significantly decreased monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) production in these cells, and 3) activation of JNK in normal mesangial cells induced inflammation.
2202 19776174 Elevated OS in aging diabetic mesangial cells may be a cause of JNK activation and inflammation, because antioxidant treatment decreased JNK phosphorylation and MCP-1 production.
2203 19776174 Additionally, decreased expression of mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase 5 (MKP5) may also contribute to increased JNK and inflammation in aging diabetic mesangial cells since overexpression of MKP5 in these cells normalized phosphorylated JNK levels and reversed the proinflammatory phenotype.
2204 19776174 Moreover, knocking down of MKP5 expression in old control mesangial cells resulted in JNK activation and MCP-1 production, a phenotype seen in aging diabetic mesangial cells.
2205 19776174 Thus, OS may induce inflammation in mesangial cells by activating JNK through either a direct activation of JNK or indirectly by suppression of MKP5 activity.

2216 19789291 Furthermore, LDR protection against diabetes-induced renal dysfunction and pathological changes was associated with a significant suppression of diabetes-increased systemic and renal inflammation, shown by significant increases in serum and renal TNFalpha, ICAM-1, IL-18, MCP-1, and PAI-1 contents.
2217 19798065 Transient receptor potential vanilloid type-1 (TRPV-1), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-alpha, and PPARgamma coactivator-1alpha (PGC-1alpha) mRNAs were also measured by RT-PCR, and PPARalpha luciferase assays were performed.
2218 19798065 Dietary capsaicin lowered fasting glucose, insulin, leptin levels, and markedly reduced the impairment of glucose tolerance in obese mice.
2219 19798065 Levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), and interleukin (IL)-6 mRNAs and proteins in adipose tissue and liver decreased markedly, as did macrophage infiltration, hepatic triglycerides, and TRPV-1 expression in adipose tissue.
2220 19798065 At the same time, the mRNA/protein of adiponectin in the adipose tissue and PPARalpha/PGC-1alpha mRNA in the liver increased.
2221 19798065 The effects of capsaicin in adipose tissue and liver are related to its dual action on PPARalpha and TRPV-1 expression/activation.
2222 19801900 Vaspin can not inhibit TNF-alpha-induced inflammation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells.
2223 19801900 We therefore assessed the effects of vaspin on basal and TNF-alpha-stimulated human umbilical vein ECs.
2224 19801900 Vaspin (10-100 ng/ml, 24 hr) had no effects on both basal ECs morphology and TNF-alpha-induced (10 ng/ml, 24 hr) morphological damages.
2225 19801900 Vaspin did not inhibit the TNF-alpha (20 min) activation of JNK, p38 and NF-kappaB, but only slightly inhibited Akt.
2226 19801900 Furthermore, vaspin did not decrease the TNF-alpha (24 hr) induction of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, intercellular adhesion molecule-1, endothelial selectin, and cyclooxygenase-2 protein expression as well as monocyte chemotactic protein-1, tissue factor, and plasmogen activator inhibitor-1 mRNA expression.
2227 19801900 The present results indicate that vaspin has no effects on normal ECs, and can not prevent TNF-alpha-induced inflammatory injury.
2228 19820199 The expression of profibrotic factors, transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta1), connective tissue growth factor, and matrix proteins was increased, and the TGF-beta1-linked transcription factors phospho-Smad3/4 and activator protein-1 were activated in the DM1 myocardium.
2229 19820199 Proapoptotic molecules FasL, Fas, Bax, and cleaved caspase-3 were also augmented.
2230 19820199 In addition, hypertension was associated with activation of NF-kappaB, increased inflammatory cell infiltrate, and expression of the mediators [interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), tumor necrosis factor-alpha, monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, vascular cell adhesion molecule 1, angiotensinogen, and oxidants], which were absent in long-term DM1.

2267 20005389 Also, the concentrations of cytokines IL-1beta, IFN-gamma, and TNF-alpha were decreased significantly.
2268 20007364 Association of reduced tumor necrosis factor alpha, gamma interferon, and interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) but increased IL-10 expression with improved chest radiography in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis.
2269 20007364 The objective of the present study was to correlate the modulation of cytokine expression (interleukin-1 [IL-1], IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12, gamma interferon [IFN-gamma], interferon-inducible protein [IP-10], and monocyte chemotactic protein 1 [MCP-1]) with the clinical response to 2 months of intensive therapy.

2271 20007364 After adjustment for age, gender, and the result of sputum culture for M. tuberculosis, significant differences in the levels of MCP-1 and IP-10 expression were observed between the early and the late responders after 2 months of intensive anti-M. tuberculosis therapy.

2281 20045460 In diabetic mice without treatment, renal AGT and MCP-1 mRNA were increased, while they were effectively suppressed by syn-BMT.
2282 20045460 These preventive effects could be partly via maintaining oxidative stress and expression of AGT and MCP-1 in kidney in streptozotocin-diabetic mice.
2283 20045460 Renal pathology, levels of oxidative stress, and the expressions of angiotensinogen (AGT), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and transforming growth factor beta 1 (Tgf-beta1) mRNA were investigated.

2289 20068030 Treatment with HE3286 was accompanied by suppressed expression of the prototype macrophage-attracting chemokine monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 in WAT, along with its cognate receptor C-C motif chemokine receptor-2.
2290 20068030 Exposure of mouse macrophages to HE3286 in vitro caused partial suppression of endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide)-induced nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-kappaB)-sensitive reporter gene expression, NF-kappaB nuclear translocation, and NF-kappaB/p65 serine phosphorylation.
2291 20068030 Proinflammatory kinases, including IkappaB kinase, c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase, and p38, were also inhibited by HE3286.
2292 20068030 In ligand competition experiments HE3286 did not bind to classical sex steroid or corticosteroid receptors, including androgen receptor (AR), progesterone receptor, estrogen receptor (ER) alpha or ERbeta, and glucocorticoid receptor (GR).
2293 20068030 Likewise, in cells expressing nuclear receptor-sensitive reporter genes HE3286 did not substantially stimulate transactivation of AR, ER, GR, or peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) alpha, PPARdelta, and PPARgamma.
2294 20068030 These findings indicate that HE3286 improves glucose homeostasis in diabetic and insulin-resistant mice and suggest that the observed therapeutic effects result from attenuation of proinflammatory pathways, independent of classic sex steroid receptors, corticosteroid receptors, or PPARs.
2295 20087882 When applied to 3T3-L1 preadipocyte cells, KMF promoted adipocyte differentiation, increased glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH) activity, and increased triglyceride (TG) content.
2296 20087882 Moreover, KMF increased mRNA expression and protein secretion of adiponectin, whereas mRNA expression and secretion of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were decreased.
2297 20092409 We further observed that supplementation with H(2)S or an endogenous precursor of H(2)S (l-cysteine) in culture medium prevents IL-8 and MCP-1 secretion in high-glucose-treated human U937 monocytes.
2298 20093768 IL-2R, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IFN-alpha, MCP-1, and MIG levels were elevated in both.
2299 20097161 Transcription factor AP-2beta: a negative regulator of IRS-1 gene expression.
2300 20097161 However, few studies have investigated the transcriptional regulation of IRS-1 in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance.
2301 20097161 Overexpression of AP-2beta leads to adipocyte hypertrophy, directly inhibits adiponectin expression, and enhanced the expression of inflammatory adipokines such as IL-6 and MCP-1.
2302 20097161 In this study, we found that overexpression of AP-2beta in 3T3-L1 adipocytes impaired the promoter activity of IRS-1, and subsequently decreased mRNA and protein expression.
2303 20097161 Electrophoretic mobility shift assays showed that AP-2beta bound specifically to the IRS-1 promoter region.
2304 20097161 Furthermore, site-directed mutagenesis of the AP-2 binding site located at -362 to -351, relative to the transcription start site, markedly decreased AP-2-induced suppression of IRS-1 promoter activity, whereas other putative AP-2 binding sites did not.
2305 20097161 Our results clearly showed that AP-2beta directly decreased IRS-1 expression by binding to its promoter.
2306 20097161 Based on these findings, we speculate that the AP-2beta transcriptional factor is a unique regulator of IRS-1 and a candidate gene for insulin resistance.
2307 20098632 Obesity and type 2 diabetes are characterized by a diminished production of protective factors such as adiponectin and increased detrimental adipocytokines such as leptin, resistin, interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα), and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) by adipose tissue.
2308 20100990 Valsartan treatment also blocked Western diet-induced increases in serum levels of the proinflammatory cytokines interferon-gamma and monocyte chemotactic protein 1.
2309 20100990 In isolated adipocytes, valsartan treatment blocked or attenuated Western diet-induced changes in expression of several key inflammatory signals: interleukin 12p40, interleukin 12p35, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interferon-gamma, adiponectin, platelet 12-lipoxygenase, collagen 6, inducible NO synthase, and AT1R.
2310 20124732 Enlargement of adipocytes, due to impaired adipocyte differentiation, leads to a chronic state of inflammation in the adipocytes and adipose tissue with a reduction in the secretion of adiponectin and increase in the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8 and monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1.

2316 20130114 Stimulation of adipocytes by macrophage activating lipopeptide-2 (MALP-2) induces MCP-1 but has no effect on IL-6 release.
2317 20130114 This stimulatory effect on MCP-1 release is antagonized by inhibition of both mitogen-activated protein kinase-1/-2 and JNK-1/-2.
2318 20130114 In human adipocytes isolated from noninflamed adipose tissue, LPS and Pam(3)Cys, but not MALP-2, are potent inducers of IL-6 and MCP-1.
2319 20130114 MALP-2 is able to induce IL-6 and MCP-1 release in adipocytes isolated from inflamed adipose tissue, whereas these adipocytes lost their ability to respond to LPS.

2411 20417247 Lipid accumulation causes adipocytes to directly secrete the cytokines interleukin (IL) 6 and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha), but also monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1), which results in the accumulation of leukocytes in fat tissue.
2412 20417247 This includes the observations that: (1) people with inflammatory diseases such as multiple sclerosis, cardiovascular disease, and psoriasis have elevated rates of depression; (2) many people administered inflammatory cytokines such as interferon alpha develop depression that is indistinguishable from depression in non-medically ill populations; (3) a significant proportion of depressed persons show upregulation of inflammatory factors such as IL-6, C-reactive protein, and TNFalpha; (4) inflammatory cytokines can interact with virtually every pathophysiologic domain relevant to depression, including neurotransmitter metabolism, neuroendocrine function, and synaptic plasticity.
2413 20420526 There, it suppresses the proinflammatory transcription factors nuclear factor-kappa B, signal transducer and activators of transcription-3, and Wnt/beta-catenin, and it activates peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma and Nrf2 cell-signaling pathways, thus leading to the downregulation of adipokines, including tumor necrosis factor, interleukin-6, resistin, leptin, and monocyte chemotactic protein-1, and the upregulation of adiponectin and other gene products.

2458 20686445 CCR2 antagonism improves insulin resistance, lipid metabolism, and diabetic nephropathy in type 2 diabetic mice.
2459 20686445 Chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2) binds to its receptor C-C chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2), initiating tissue inflammation, and recent studies have suggested a beneficial effect of a blockade of this pathway in diabetic nephropathy.
2460 20686445 To investigate the mechanism of protection, we studied the effect of RS504393, a CCR2 antagonist, on insulin resistance and diabetic nephropathy in db/db mice.
2461 20686445 In addition, treatment with the CCR2 antagonist markedly decreased urinary albumin excretion, mesangial expansion, and suppressed profibrotic and proinflammatory cytokine synthesis.
2462 20686445 Hence, our findings suggest that CCR2 antagonists can improve insulin resistance by modulation of the adipose tissue and restore renal function through both metabolic and anti-fibrotic effects in type 2 diabetic mice.

2514 20980978 Urine levels of kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG), and some inflammatory markers were determined in 38 healthy individuals and 659 patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus having varying degrees of albuminuria.
2515 20980978 Urinary interleukin-6, CXCL10/IP-10, NAG, and KIM-1 levels were very low in healthy individuals, increased in type 1 patients with normoalbuminuria, and were highest in diabetic patients that had microalbuminuria.
2516 20980978 Low baseline concentrations of urinary KIM-1 and NAG both individually and collectively were significantly associated with the regression of microalbuminuria over the subsequent 2 years; an effect independent of clinical characteristics.

2529 21088297 LANCL2 knockdown studies provide evidence that ABA-mediated activation of macrophage PPAR γ is dependent on lancl2 expression.
2530 21088297 ABA suppresses LPS-induced prostaglandin E(2) and MCP-1 production via a PPAR γ-dependent mechanism possibly involving activation of PPAR γ and suppression of NF-κB and nuclear factor of activated T cells.

2639 21189358 To provide a comprehensive understanding of how GC affect adipose tissue and adipocyte function, we analyzed patterns of gene expression (HG U95 Affymetrix arrays) after culture of abdominal subcutaneous (Abd sc) and omental (Om) adipose tissues from severely obese subjects (3 F, 1 M) in the presence of insulin or insulin (7 nM) plus dexamethasone (Dex, 25 nM) for 7 days.
2640 21189358 Dex suppressed genes in immune/inflammatory (IL-6, IL-8, and MCP-1, expressed in nonadipocytes) and proapoptotic pathways, yet induced genes related to the acute-phase response (SAA, factor D, haptoglobin, and RBP4, expressed in adipocytes) and stress/defense response.
2641 21189358 Functional classification analysis showed that Dex also induced expression levels of 22 transcription factors related to insulin action and lipogenesis (LXRα, STAT5α, SREBP1, and FoxO1) and immunity/adipogenesis (TSC22D3) while suppressing 17 transcription factors in both depots.

2648 21228103 An increase in the renal levels of VEGF-A, VEGFR-2, transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 in diabetic animals was significantly suppressed by AdhVASH-1 (immunoblotting).
2649 21228103 AdhVASH-1 treatment significantly recovered the loss and altered the distribution patterns of nephrin and zonula occludens (ZO)-1 and suppressed the increase in the number of fibroblast-specific protein-1 (FSP-1(+)) and desmin(+) podocytes in diabetic mice.
2650 21228103 In vitro, recombinant human VASH-1 (rhVASH-1) dose dependently suppressed the upregulation of VEGF induced by high ambient glucose (25 mM) in cultured mouse podocytes.
2651 21228103 In addition, rhVASH-1 significantly recovered the mRNA levels of nephrin and the protein levels of ZO-1 and P-cadherin and suppressed the increase in protein levels of desmin, FSP-1, Snail, and Slug in podocytes under high-glucose condition.
2652 21244505 This was associated with increased expression of factors involved in osteoclast activity and recruitment (Rankl, Csf1, Ccl2, Ccl5, and Tnfa) in DB mice.
2653 21295959 Lactoferrin has been associated with insulin sensitivity in vivo and in vitro studies.
2654 21295959 The effects of lactoferrin on adipogenesis were studied through the expression of different adipogenic and inflammatory markers, AMPK activation and Retinoblastoma 1 (RB1) activity.
2655 21295959 The response to insulin was evaluated through (Ser473)AKT phosphorylation.
2656 21295959 In both subcutaneous and visceral preadipocytes, lactoferrin (1 and 10 μM) increased adipogenic gene expressions and protein levels (fatty acid synthase, PPARγ, FABP4, ADIPOQ, ACC and STAMP2) and decreased inflammatory markers (IL8, IL6 and MCP1) dose-dependently in parallel to increased insulin-induced (Ser473)AKT phosphorylation.
2657 21295959 In addition to these adipogenic effects, lactoferrin decreased significantly AMPK activity (reducing (pThr172)AMPK and (pSer79)ACC) and RB1 activity (increasing the (pser807/811)RB1/RB1 ratio).
2658 21295959 In conclusion, these results suggest that lactoferrin promotes adipogenesis in human adipocytes by enhancing insulin signaling and inhibiting RB1 and AMPK activities.

2734 21659765 The biologically active carbonyl intermediates methylglyoxal-BSA-AGE and AGE-BSA upregulate tubular expression of CTGF, TGF-β, and VEGF, whereas carboxymethyllysine-BSA stimulates tubular expression of IL-6, CCL-2, CTGF, TGF-β, and VEGF via RAGE activation and NF-κB signal transduction.
2735 21659765 Hyperglycemia (30 mM), but not the equivalent dose of mannitol, promotes proinflammatory (IL-6 and CCL-2), profibrotic (TGF-β) and angiogenic (VEGF) responses in tubular cells via MAPK and PKC signaling and induces epithelial mesenchymal transition, which is TGF-β1 mediated.

2738 21659767 Tissue kallikrein 1 is a member of the tissue kallikrein family that is mainly responsible for the generation of kinins, and bradykinin (BK) is the principal kinin responsible for the biologic actions of the KKS that acts through the ubiquitous BK 2receptor (B2R) and the inducible B1R.
2739 21659767 For a detrimental role of the KKS, BK upregulates tubular cell IL-6, CCL-2, and TGF-β expression via ERK1/2 activation; the B2R-/- status protects against the development of DN lesions in STZ-injected mice, while blocking B2R with icatibant alleviates biochemical and histologic injuries in uninephrectomized db/db mice.

2745 21729693 Human endothelial cells (HEC) from EA.hy926 line were incubated with AGE-LDL in the presence/absence of Am and the oxidative and inflammatory status of the cells was evaluated along with the p38 MAPK and NF-κB signalling pathways.
2746 21729693 The gene expression of NADPH subunits (p22(phox), NOX4), eNOS and inflammatory molecules (MCP-1, VCAM-1) were determined by Real Time PCR, while the protein expression of p22(phox), MCP-1, iNOS, phospho-p38 MAPK and phospho-p65 NF-κB subunit were measured by Western Blot.

2751 21738950 The aim of this study was to determine the circulating concentrations and expression levels of calprotectin subunits (S100A8 and S100A9) in visceral adipose tissue (VAT), exploring its impact on insulin resistance and inflammation and the effect of weight loss.
2752 21738950 Calprotectin was mainly expressed by SVFCs, and its expression was significantly correlated (P < 0.01) with mRNA levels of the monocyte-macrophage-related molecules macrophage-specific antigen CD68 (CD68), monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP1), integrin α-M (CD11B), and NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2).

2754 21742977 Deficiency of the leukotriene B4 receptor, BLT-1, protects against systemic insulin resistance in diet-induced obesity.
2755 21742977 The accumulation of classically activated (M1) adipose tissue macrophages (ATMs) and the expression of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines (i.e., IL-6 and Ccl2) was largely blunted in adipose tissue of obese BLT-1(-/-) mice, whereas the ratio of alternatively activated (M2) ATMs to M1 ATMs was increased.
2756 21742977 Obese BLT-1(-/-) mice were protected from systemic glucose and insulin intolerance and this was associated with a decrease in inflammation in adipose tissue and liver and a decrease in hepatic triglyceride accumulation.
2757 21742977 Deletion of BLT-1 prevented high fat-induced loss of insulin signaling in liver and skeletal muscle.
2758 21742977 These observations elucidate a novel role of chemoattractant receptor, BLT-1, in promoting monocyte trafficking to adipose tissue and promoting chronic inflammation in obesity and could lead to the identification of new therapeutic targets for treating insulin resistance in obesity.
2759 21799302 Moreover, as the severity of PAD increases, MCP-1 levels also increase.

2762 21808640 Protein risk marker levels (hsCRP, MMP-9, MCP-1, etc.) and the expression of NFκB subunits and NFκB-modulated cytokines from isolated peripheral monocyte/macrophages were determined at baseline and endpoint.
2763 21813778 IL-1 blockade attenuates islet amyloid polypeptide-induced proinflammatory cytokine release and pancreatic islet graft dysfunction.
2764 21813778 We sought to determine whether human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP), the main component of islet amyloid, might contribute to islet inflammation by recruiting and activating macrophages.
2765 21813778 Early aggregates of hIAPP, but not nonamyloidogenic rodent islet amyloid polypeptide, caused release of CCL2 and CXCL1 by islets and induced secretion of TNF-α, IL-1α, IL-1β, CCL2, CCL3, CXCL1, CXCL2, and CXCL10 by C57BL/6 bone marrow-derived macrophages. hIAPP-induced TNF-α secretion was markedly diminished in MyD88-, but not TLR2- or TLR4-deficient macrophages, and in cells treated with the IL-1R antagonist (IL-1Ra) anakinra.
2766 21813778 Our results suggest that hIAPP-induced islet chemokine secretion promotes macrophage recruitment and that IL-1R/MyD88, but not TLR2 or TLR4 signaling is required for maximal macrophage responsiveness to prefibrillar hIAPP.
2767 21816757 Distinct cardiac and renal effects of ETA receptor antagonist and ACE inhibitor in experimental type 2 diabetes.
2768 21816757 Simultaneous blockade of ANG II and ET-1 pathways normalized renal monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 and interstitial inflammation.
2769 21816757 Drug combination restored myocardial structure and reestablished an adequate capillary network in the presence of increased cardiac expression of VEGF/VEGFR-1, and significant reduction of oxidative stress.
2770 21816757 In conclusion, in type 2 diabetes concomitant blockade of ANG II synthesis and ET-1 biological activity through an ET(A) receptor antagonist led to substantial albeit not complete renoprotection, almost due to the ACE inhibitor.

2864 22021706 In this study, we found increased expression of TLR4 but not of TLR2 in the renal tubules of human kidneys with diabetic nephropathy compared with expression of TLR4 and TLR2 in normal kidney and in kidney disease from other causes.
2865 22021706 The intensity of tubular TLR4 expression correlated directly with interstitial macrophage infiltration and hemoglobin A1c level and inversely with estimated glomerular filtration rate.
2866 22021706 The tubules also upregulated the endogenous TLR4 ligand high-mobility group box 1 in diabetic nephropathy.
2867 22021706 In vitro, high glucose induced TLR4 expression via protein kinase C activation in a time- and dose-dependent manner, resulting in upregulation of IL-6 and chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 (CCL-2) expression via IκB/NF-κB activation in human proximal tubular epithelial cells.

2962 22425757 The aim of this study was to investigate the capacity of (-)-epicatechin to prevent tumor necrosis alpha (TNFα)-induced activation of cell signals involved in inflammation and insulin resistance (NF-κB, mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), AP-1, and peroxisome proliferator activated receptor γ (PPARγ)) in differentiated white adipocytes (3T3-L1).
2963 22425757 TNFα triggered the activation of transcription factors NF-κB and AP-1, and MAPKs ERK1/2, JNK, and p38. (-)-Epicatechin caused a dose (0.5-10 μM)-dependent decrease in TNFα-mediated JNK, ERK1/2, and p-38 phosphorylation, and nuclear AP-1-DNA binding.

3027 22609131 Hypertrophic adipocytes begin to secrete low levels of TNF-α, which stimulate preadipocytes and endothelial cells to produce MCP-1, in turn responsible for attracting macrophages to the adipose tissue, thus developing a state of chronic low-grade inflammation which is causally linked to insulin resistance.

3040 22688339 There were no differences in the above parameters between the two groups, but patients whose ulcers failed to heal had higher tumor necrosis factor-α, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP-9), and fibroblast growth factor 2 serum levels when compared with those who healed.
3041 22688339 Skin biopsy analysis showed that compared with control subjects, diabetic patients had increased immune cell infiltration, expression of MMP-9, and protein tyrosine phosphatase-1B (PTP1B), which negatively regulates the signaling of insulin, leptin, and growth factors.
3042 22688339 We conclude that increased inflammation, expression of MMP-9, PTP1B, and aberrant growth factor levels are the main factors associated with failure to heal DFUs.

3235 23071093 Retinol-binding protein 4 induces inflammation in human endothelial cells by an NADPH oxidase- and nuclear factor kappa B-dependent and retinol-independent mechanism.
3236 23071093 Here we show that RBP4 induces inflammation in primary human retinal capillary endothelial cells (HRCEC) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) by stimulating expression of proinflammatory molecules involved in leukocyte recruitment and adherence to endothelium, including vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1), intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), E-selectin, monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1), and interleukin-6 (IL-6).
3237 23071093 We demonstrate that these novel effects of RBP4 are independent of retinol and the RBP4 membrane receptor STRA6 and occur in part via activation of NADPH oxidase and NF-κB.
3238 23089228 Heme arginate reduced visceral adiposity and enhanced HO activity and cGMP in the adipose tissue, but suppressed ET-1, nuclear-factor κB (NF-κB), activating-protein (AP-1), c-Jun-NH2-terminal kinase (JNK), macrophage chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), and 8-isoprostane.

3250 23104422 Small interfering-RNA to protein kinase C-delta reduces the proinflammatory effects of human C-reactive protein in biobreeding diabetic rats.
3251 23104422 Previously we reported that human CRP accentuated macrophage activity in spontaneously diabetic biobreeding (BB) rats and also increased protein kinase C (PKC) delta.
3252 23104422 Compared to scrambled siRNA, siRNA to PKC delta resulted in a significant decrease in biomediators of inflammation in plasma and from macrophages (IL-1, TNF-alpha, IL-6, MCP-1, KC/IL-8, and PAI -1).
3253 23154660 Endothelial dysfunction, macrophage infiltration and NADPH oxidase-dependent superoxide production were attenuated by erythropoietin in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rat aorta.

3255 23159951 This study examined the effects of GLP-1 on reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, gene expression of protein arginine methyltransfetase-1 (PRMT-1), an enzyme that mainly generates ADMA, and ADMA levels in human proximal tubular cells.
3256 23159951 GLP-1 inhibited the AGE-induced RAGE and PRMT-1 gene expression, ROS, and ADMA generation in tubular cells, which were blocked by small-interfering RNAs raised against GLP-1 receptor.
3257 23159951 Exendin-4 treatment decreased gene expression of Rage, Prmt-1, Icam-1, and Mcp-1 and ADMA level; reduced urinary excretions of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine and albumin; and improved histopathologic changes of the kidney in diabetic rats.
3258 23159951 Our present study suggests that GLP-1 receptor agonist may inhibit the AGE-RAGE-mediated ADMA generation by suppressing PRMT-1 expression via inhibition of ROS generation, thereby protecting against the development and progression of diabetic nephropathy.

3263 23296264 The aim of this study was to characterize adipocyte size and inflammatory profile in subcutaneous (SAT) and EAT among subjects with or without diabetes.
3264 23296264 Biopsies were collected from SAT and EAT in 34 men undergoing elective cardiac surgery.
3265 23296264 Weight, height, body mass index, waist circumference, as well as serum levels of glucose, insulin, lipids, adiponectin, and leptin were determined in all subjects.
3266 23296264 Adiponectin, MCP-1, and CD68 mRNA levels present within cells from AT biopsies were determined by real-time polymerase chain reaction.
3267 23296264 Regarding the experimental group as a whole, gene-expression levels within EAT were significantly lower for adiponectin and higher, albeit not significantly, for MCP-1, when compared with that of SAT.
3268 23296264 Subjects with diabetes showed lower adiponectin gene-expression levels in both SAT and EAT when compared with subjects without diabetes.
3269 23296264 By contrast, MCP-1 and CD68 gene-expression levels were higher in both tissue types of diabetic subjects.

3401 23454124 Emerging evidence shows that transient hyperglycemic exposure of human endothelial cells induces histone 3 lysine 4 mono-methylation (H3K4me1) on the promoter and persistent mRNA expression of RelA and IL-8 genes, suggesting that epigenetic histone modification and chromatin structure remodeling is a key event underlying metabolic memory.

3420 23515495 Also, serum TGF-β(1) and urinary MCP-1 correlated positively with HbA1c (r = 0.49 and 0.55, respectively, p < 0.05 for both) and inversely with eGFR (r = -0.69 and -0.60, respectively, p < 0.001 for both).
3421 23528355 Cilostazol ameliorates systemic insulin resistance in diabetic db/db mice by suppressing chronic inflammation in adipose tissue via modulation of both adipocyte and macrophage functions.
3422 23528355 Cilostazol reduced the adipocyte size and suppressed mRNA expressions of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, CD11c, and tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) in the epididymal fat tissue of db/db mice.
3423 23528355 Cilostazol also effectively ameliorated the TNFα-induced decrease of insulin-stimulated Akt phosphorylation and [(3)H]2-deoxyglucose uptake by suppressing c-Jun N terminal kinase-mediated serine phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate 1 in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.
3424 23528355 Importantly, the improvement of impaired insulin signaling was blunted by pretreatment with KT5720, a protein kinase A inhibitor, but not with GW9662, a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ.
3425 23542713 Activation of a retinoic acid receptor pathway by thiazolidinediones induces production of vascular endothelial growth factor/vascular permeability factor in OP9 adipocytes.
3426 23542713 TGZ induced the expression of VEGF but not interleukin-6 and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1. 2-chloro-5-nitrobenzanilide (GW9662) blocked both the differentiation and the production of VEGF induced by TGZ. 15-deoxy-Δ(12,14)-Prostaglandin J2, a natural ligand of PPARγ, and another PPARγ agonist, ginkgolic acid, also induced an increase in the expression of VEGE as well as the differentiation of OP9 cells.
3427 23542713 Although VEGF expression was enhanced under hypoxic conditions, the expression of hypoxia inducible factor and Ets-1 was down-regulated during the TGZ-induced differentiation.
3428 23542713 These findings suggested that the major adipocyte-derived vascular permeability factor produced in response to TGZ was VEGF, and a RAR pathway was involved in the production.
3429 23563695 Interleukin (IL)-10 protein levels and expression of most of the anti-inflammatory genes, including IL-10, macrophage mannose receptor (MMR), arginase, Dectin-1, YM-1 and YM-2, were significantly increased after treatment with APS for 24 h.
3430 23563695 Furthermore, APS induced IL-10 protein production and anti-inflammatory gene expression of IL-10, MMR, Dectin-1, arginase, YM-1 and YM-2.
3431 23563695 Additionally, APS inhibited IL-1β protein production and expression of most of the pro-inflammatory genes, such as IL-1β, iNOS, MCP-1, IL-6 and CD11c but not tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α.

3446 23565106 Previous studies from western countries have shown an association between VEGF and MCP-1 levels and the incidence of ischemic stroke.
3447 23565106 Serum VEGF and MCP-1 levels were measured using commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
3448 23565185 We demonstrated that angiotensin II type 2 (AT2) receptor-interacting protein (ATIP) 1 ameliorates inflammation-mediated vascular remodeling independent of the AT2 receptor, leading us to explore the possibility of whether ATIP1 could exert anti-inflammatory effects and play a role in other pathophysiological conditions.
3449 23565185 We examined the possible anti-inflammatory effects of ATIP1 in adipose tissue associated with amelioration of insulin resistance.
3450 23565185 In mice fed a high-cholesterol diet, adipose tissue macrophage (ATM) infiltration and M1-to-M2 ratio were decreased in ATIP1 transgenic mice (ATIP1-Tg) compared with wild-type mice (WT), with decreased expression of inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-α and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 in white adipose tissue (WAT), but an increase in interleukin-10, an anti-inflammatory cytokine.
3451 23565185 ATM infiltration and M1-to-M2 ratio were decreased in ATIP1 chimera (ATIP1-tg as BM donor), with improvement of insulin-mediated 2-[(3)H]DG uptake and amelioration of inflammation in WAT.
3452 23565185 Moreover, serum adiponectin concentration in ATIP1 chimera was significantly higher than that in WT chimera (WT as BM donor) and KKAy chimera (KKAy as BM donor).
3453 23565185 These results indicate that ATIP1 could exert anti-inflammatory effects in adipose tissue via macrophage polarization associated with improvement of insulin resistance, and ATIP1 in hematopoietic cells may contribute to these beneficial effects on adipose tissue functions in type 2 diabetes.
3454 23567861 The results showed that levels of glucose, leptin, insulin, C-peptide, resistin, tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6, triglycerides, total cholesterol, non-esterified fatty acids, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, very low-density lipoprotein cholesterol/low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance (TBARS) in serum were down-regulated, while adiponectin was augmented by GS treatment.
3455 23567861 The administration of GS significantly decreased sterol regulatory element binding protein-1, nuclear factor-kappa ?
3456 23567861 >Bp65, cyclooxygenase-2, inducible nitric oxide synthase, monocyte chemotactic protein-1, intracellular adhesion molecule-1, phosphor c-Jun N-terminal kinase, activator protein-1, transforming growth factor-β1, Bax, cytochrome c, and caspase-3 expressions.
3457 23600826 Concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-2, IL-12(p70), IL-18, IFN-γ, of regulatory cytokines IL-4, IL-10, IL-17 and chemokine CCL2 (MCP-1) were measured by multiplex-bead technology from supernatants.
3458 23600826 Co-incubation of fatty acids with uric acid resulted in a significant reduction of IL-10, IL-12(p70), IFN-γ and CCL2 (MCP-1) concentrations in supernatants compared to incubation with uric acid alone (P < 0·0001).
3459 23600826 Similarly, co-incubation of fatty acids with glucose diminished secretion of IL-10, IFN-γ and CCL2 (monocyte chemotactic protein-1), while IL-8 was up-regulated (P < 0·001).
3460 23600826 Concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-2, IL-12(p70), IL-18, IFN-γ, of regulatory cytokines IL-4, IL-10, IL-17 and chemokine CCL2 (MCP-1) were measured by multiplex-bead technology from supernatants.
3461 23600826 Co-incubation of fatty acids with uric acid resulted in a significant reduction of IL-10, IL-12(p70), IFN-γ and CCL2 (MCP-1) concentrations in supernatants compared to incubation with uric acid alone (P < 0·0001).
3462 23600826 Similarly, co-incubation of fatty acids with glucose diminished secretion of IL-10, IFN-γ and CCL2 (monocyte chemotactic protein-1), while IL-8 was up-regulated (P < 0·001).
3463 23600826 Concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-2, IL-12(p70), IL-18, IFN-γ, of regulatory cytokines IL-4, IL-10, IL-17 and chemokine CCL2 (MCP-1) were measured by multiplex-bead technology from supernatants.
3464 23600826 Co-incubation of fatty acids with uric acid resulted in a significant reduction of IL-10, IL-12(p70), IFN-γ and CCL2 (MCP-1) concentrations in supernatants compared to incubation with uric acid alone (P < 0·0001).
3465 23600826 Similarly, co-incubation of fatty acids with glucose diminished secretion of IL-10, IFN-γ and CCL2 (monocyte chemotactic protein-1), while IL-8 was up-regulated (P < 0·001).
3466 23630304 Moreover, AGEs-aptamer significantly reduced gene expression of RAGE, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, connective tissue growth factor, and type IV collagen both in the kidney of KKAy/Ta mice and in AGE-exposed human cultured mesangial cells.
3467 23648402 Effect of dietary polyphenols from hop (Humulus lupulus L.) pomace on adipose tissue mass, fasting blood glucose, hemoglobin A1c, and plasma monocyte chemotactic protein-1 levels in OLETF rats.
3468 23648402 Dietary HPs substantially suppressed the activities of hepatic fatty acid synthetase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and malic enzyme, through the suppression of SREBP1c mRNA expression in OLETF rats.
3469 23648402 Moreover, in the HPs-fed group, monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) expression and fasting blood glucose levels at 40 days, and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels at 70 days were significantly lower than those in the control group.
3470 23648402 Effect of dietary polyphenols from hop (Humulus lupulus L.) pomace on adipose tissue mass, fasting blood glucose, hemoglobin A1c, and plasma monocyte chemotactic protein-1 levels in OLETF rats.
3471 23648402 Dietary HPs substantially suppressed the activities of hepatic fatty acid synthetase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and malic enzyme, through the suppression of SREBP1c mRNA expression in OLETF rats.
3472 23648402 Moreover, in the HPs-fed group, monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) expression and fasting blood glucose levels at 40 days, and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels at 70 days were significantly lower than those in the control group.
3473 23653857 We have also shown that subjects with nascent MetS have increased the levels of SAT-secreted adipokines (IL-1, IL-6, IL-8, leptin, RBP-4, CRP, SAA, PAI-1, MCP-1, and chemerin) and plasma adipokines (IL-1, IL-6, leptin, RBP-4, CRP, SAA, and chemerin), as well as decreased levels of plasma adiponectin and both plasma and SAT omentin-1.
3474 23656889 Our results show that the albumin-to-creatinine ratio significantly decreased in diabetic KCa3.1(-/-) mice compared with diabetic wild-type mice and in diabetic eNOS(-/-) mice treated with TRAM34 compared with diabetic mice.
3475 23656889 The expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM1), F4/80, plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1), and type III and IV collagen significantly decreased (P < 0.01) in kidneys of diabetic KCa3.1(-/-) mice compared with diabetic wild-type mice.
3476 23656889 Furthermore, blocking the KCa3.1 channel in both animal models led to a reduction of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and TGF-β1 type II receptor (TβRII) and phosphorylation of Smad2/3.
3477 23662142 We also found that RRP decreased the expression of inflammatory factors including IL-1 β , IL-6, TNF- α , NF- κ B, MCP-1, ICAM-1, or VCAM-1 in the retinas of GK rats and reversed high glucose-induced inhibition of endothelial cell migration and proliferation in vitro.
3478 23675368 The secretion of chemoattractants such as MCP-1 and MIF and of cytokines IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-1β, draw immune cells including dendritic cells, T cells, and macrophages into adipose tissue (AT).
3479 23690974 High fat wild type offspring had increased serum glucose and PAI-1 levels and decreased adiponectin at 6 wks of age compared to control wild type.
3480 23690974 High fat G4+/-, but not high fat wild type fetuses, had increased levels of serum cytokines (IFN-γ, MCP-1, RANTES and M-CSF) compared to control.
3481 23704966 Plasma LPS (r = -0.46, P = 0.005) and LBP (r = -0.49, P = 0.005) concentrations negatively correlated with muscle insulin sensitivity (M).
3482 23704966 In human myotubes, LPS increased JNK phosphorylation and MCP-1 and IL-6 gene expression.
3483 23704966 This inflammatory response led to reduced insulin-stimulated IRS-1, Akt and AS160 phosphorylation and impaired glucose transport.
3484 23704966 Both pharmacologic blockade of TLR4 with TAK-242, and TLR4 gene silencing, suppressed the inflammatory response and insulin resistance caused by LPS in human muscle cells.
3485 23704966 Taken together, these findings suggest that elevations in plasma LPS concentration found in obese and T2DM subjects could play a role in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance and that antagonists of TLR4 may improve insulin action in these individuals.
3486 23707905 In the present study, the therapeutic effects of SGLT2 selective inhibitor ipragliflozin were examined in high-fat diet and streptozotocin-nicotinamide-induced type 2 diabetic mice which exhibit impaired insulin secretion, insulin resistance, hyperlipidemia, hepatic steatosis, and obesity.
3487 23707905 In addition, ipragliflozin reduced plasma and liver levels of oxidative stress biomarkers (thiobarbituric acid reactive substances and protein carbonyl) and inflammatory markers (interleukin 6, tumor necrosis factor α, monocyte chemotactic protein-1, and c-reactive protein), and improved liver injury as assessed by plasma levels of aminotransferases.
3488 23733596 Results showed that supplementation with LC and Na2S reduced NF-κB phosphorylation and the secretion of TNF-α, MCP-1, IL-8, IL-1β, and IP-10.
3489 23737649 In addition, genistein treatment decreased inflammatory markers such as nuclear factor kappa B (p65), phosphorylated inhibitory kappa B alpha, C-reactive protein, monocyte chemotactic protein-1, cyclooxygenase-2, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha and improved oxidative stress markers (nuclear-related factor E2, heme oxygenase-1, glutathione peroxidase, and superoxide dismutase isoforms) in treatment groups, regardless of the genistein treatment dose.
3490 23737649 Furthermore, genistein supplementation inhibited the fibrosis-related markers (protein kinase C, protein kinase C-beta II, and transforming growth factor-beta I) in the DN state.
3491 23749168 PIP3 but not PIP2 increases GLUT4 surface expression and glucose metabolism mediated by AKT/PKCζ/λ phosphorylation in 3T3L1 adipocytes.
3492 23749168 Using a 3T3L1 adipocyte cell model, this study investigated the role of PIP3 and PIP2 on insulin stimulated glucose metabolism in high glucose (HG) treated cells.
3493 23749168 Exogenous PIP3 supplementation (1, 5, or 10 nM) increased the phosphorylation of AKT and PKCζ/λ, which in turn upregulated GLUT4 total protein expression as well as its surface expression, glucose uptake, and glucose utilization in cells exposed to HG (25 mM); however, PIP2 had no effect.
3494 23749168 Comparative signal silencing studies with antisense AKT2 and antisense PKCζ revealed that phosphorylation of PKCζ/λ is more effective in PIP3 mediated GLUT4 activation and glucose utilization than in AKT phosphorylation.
3495 23749168 PIP3 supplementation also prevented HG-induced MCP-1 and resistin secretion and lowered adiponectin levels.
3496 23749168 This study for the first time demonstrates that PIP3 but not PIP2 plays an important role in GLUT4 upregulation and glucose metabolism mediated by AKT/PKCζ/λ phosphorylation.
3497 23766563 High-mobility group box-1 induces decreased brain-derived neurotrophic factor-mediated neuroprotection in the diabetic retina.
3498 23766563 To test the hypothesis that brain-derived neurotrophic factor-(BDNF-) mediated neuroprotection is reduced by high-mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) in diabetic retina, paired vitreous and serum samples from 46 proliferative diabetic retinopathy and 34 nondiabetic patients were assayed for BDNF, HMGB1, soluble receptor for advanced glycation end products (sRAGE), soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), and TBARS.
3499 23766563 The effect of the HMGB1 inhibitor glycyrrhizin on diabetes-induced changes in retinal BDNF expressions was studied.
3500 23766563 BDNF levels were significantly lower in serum samples from diabetic patients compared with nondiabetics, whereas HMGB1, sRAGE, sICAM-1, and TBARS levels were significantly higher in diabetic serum samples.
3501 23766563 There was significant inverse correlation between serum levels of BDNF and HMGB1.
3502 23766563 Diabetes and intravitreal administration of HMGB1 induced significant upregulation of the expression of HMGB1, TBARS, and cleaved caspase-3, whereas the expression of BDNF and synaptophysin was significantly downregulated in rat retinas.
3503 23766563 Our results suggest that HMGB1-induced downregulation of BDNF might be involved in pathogenesis of diabetic retinal neurodegeneration.
3504 23770363 Vitamin D upregulates glutamate cysteine ligase and glutathione reductase, and GSH formation, and decreases ROS and MCP-1 and IL-8 secretion in high-glucose exposed U937 monocytes.
3505 23775007 In regression analyses, changes in monocyte chemotactic protein-1, E-selectin, and soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1) were significantly associated with changes in MAU and ACR.
3506 23791972 Meanwhile, the expressions of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNFα were significantly down-regulated by MSCs treatment.
3507 23791972 Our study suggest that MSCs treatment ameliorates DN via inhibition of MCP-1 expression by secreting HGF, thus reducing macrophages infiltration, down-regulating IL-1β, IL-6, TNFα expression in renal tissue in diabetic rats.
3508 23794669 Blockade of CCL2/CCR2 signalling ameliorates diabetic nephropathy in db/db mice.
3509 23805406 CCR5: A novel player in the adipose tissue inflammation and insulin resistance?
3510 23805406 Adipose tissue macrophage (ATM) accumulation through C-C motif chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2) and its ligand monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) is considered pivotal in the development of insulin resistance.
3511 23805406 However, our new study has demonstrated that CCR5, a different CC chemokine receptor, plays an important role in the ATM recruitment and activation and subsequent development of insulin resistance (see the recent article in Diabetes).
3512 23805406 Although recent human studies have shown upregulation of the expression of not only MCP-1-CCR2 but also other CC chemokines and their receptors in the visceral fat of obese individuals, it is not known if CCR5 is involved in ATM recruitment and insulin resistance.
3513 23805406 First, expression of CCR5 and its ligands is significantly increased and is equal to that of CCR2 and its ligands in the white adipose tissue (WAT) of obese mice, particularly in the macrophage fraction.
3514 23805406 Second, fluorescence-activated cell sorter analysis clearly demonstrates a robust increase in accumulation of CCR5(+) ATMs in response to a high fat (HF) diet.
3515 23805406 Third, and most important, two distinct models, both Ccr5 (-/-) mice and chimeric mice lacking CCR5 only in myeloid cells, are protected from insulin resistance and diabetes through reduction in ATM accumulation.
3516 23805406 Taken together, these data indicate that CCR5 is a novel link between obesity, adipose tissue inflammation, and insulin resistance.
3517 23805406 CCR5: A novel player in the adipose tissue inflammation and insulin resistance?
3518 23805406 Adipose tissue macrophage (ATM) accumulation through C-C motif chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2) and its ligand monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) is considered pivotal in the development of insulin resistance.
3519 23805406 However, our new study has demonstrated that CCR5, a different CC chemokine receptor, plays an important role in the ATM recruitment and activation and subsequent development of insulin resistance (see the recent article in Diabetes).
3520 23805406 Although recent human studies have shown upregulation of the expression of not only MCP-1-CCR2 but also other CC chemokines and their receptors in the visceral fat of obese individuals, it is not known if CCR5 is involved in ATM recruitment and insulin resistance.
3521 23805406 First, expression of CCR5 and its ligands is significantly increased and is equal to that of CCR2 and its ligands in the white adipose tissue (WAT) of obese mice, particularly in the macrophage fraction.
3522 23805406 Second, fluorescence-activated cell sorter analysis clearly demonstrates a robust increase in accumulation of CCR5(+) ATMs in response to a high fat (HF) diet.

3525 23806781 Incubation of retinal EC with TNF-α and IL-1β altered VE-cadherin localization, as well as the expression of other junctional proteins.
3526 23806781 In addition, TNF-α and IL-1β also altered the production of various ECM proteins including osteopontin, collagen IV, and tenascin-C.
3527 23806781 In contrast, incubation of retinal EC with MCP-1 minimally affected their migratory, junctional, and ECM properties.
3528 23807918 ATM accumulation through C-C motif chemokine receptor 2 and its ligand monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 is considered pivotal in the development of insulin resistance.
3529 23807918 Therefore, additional, unidentified chemokine/chemokine receptor pathways that may play significant roles in ATM recruitment and insulin sensitivity remain to be fully identified.
3530 23817085 In addition, urinary excretion of cytokines (TNFα and IL-6) and chemokines (MCP-1 and IP-10) were significantly more in EP4-treated mice than vehicle-treated diabetes.
3531 23817085 Diabetes-induced collagen I and CTGF expression were also significantly higher in EP4-treated mice.
3532 23817085 Interestingly, EP4-induced IL-6 expression in the kidney was localized in proximal and distal tubular epithelial cells.
3533 23844818 Engagement of RAGEs with AGEs elicits intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and subsequently activates mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) signaling, followed by production of several inflammatory and/or profibrotic factors such as vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), thereby being involved in the progression of atherosclerosis.
3534 23845213 Serum levels of the inflammatory markers; monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), C-reactive protein (CRP) and nitrite/nitrate were also determined.
3535 23845213 The liver was isolated and used for determination of malondialdehyde (MDA), reduced glutathione (GSH), caspase-3 and cytochrome c levels.
3536 23845213 All treated groups exhibited significant reductions in serum FFAs, oxidative stress and inflammatory parameters, caspase-3 and cytochrome c levels compared to untreated diabetic rats with the highest improvement observed in the combination group.
3537 23861558 This review summarizes the current literature regarding the most discussed contraction-regulated moykines like IL-6, IL-15, irisin, BDNF, ANGPTL4, FGF21, myonectin and MCP-1.
3538 23921144 Besides IL-6, PA amplified the stimulatory effect of LPS on a large amount of Toll-like receptor (TLR)4-mediated expression of proinflammatory signaling molecules such as IL-1 receptor-associated kinase-like 2 and proinflammatory molecules, including monocyte chemotactic protein-1 and colony-stimulating factor.
3539 23921144 We also observed that PA augmented TLR4 but not TLR2 signal, and the augmentation was mediated by nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) pathways.
3540 23921144 To further elucidate the regulatory mechanism whereby PA amplifies LPS signal, our studies showed that PA and LPS synergistically increased hydrolysis of sphingomyelin by stimulating acid sphingomyelinase (ASMase) activity, which contributed to a marked increase in ceramide production and IL-6 upregulation.
3541 23939543 Renal decline was not associated with sex or baseline serum concentration of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8, IP-10, MCP-1, VCAM, ICAM, Fas, or FasL.
3542 23970785 GPER deficiency in male mice results in insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and a proinflammatory state.
3543 23970785 Although insulin resistance was evident in GPER KO male mice from 6 months onward, glucose intolerance was pronounced only at 18 months of age.
3544 23970785 Furthermore, by 2 years of age, a proinflammatory phenotype was evident, with increases in the proinflammatory and immunomodulatory cytokines IL-1β, IL-6, IL-12, TNFα, monocyte chemotactic protein-1, interferon γ-induced protein 10, and monokine induced by interferon gamma and a concomitant decrease in the adipose-specific cytokine adiponectin.
3545 23983782 Results showed that the hyperglycemia-induced GAG alterations in the cell surface perlecan as well as in the ECM indeed upregulated the expressions of IL-6, IL-8, and MCP-1 and the activities of MMP-2 and MMP-9 and downregulated the expressions of TIMP-2.
3546 23985305 The results from biological characteristics, glucose tolerance test, insulin tolerance test, and insulin release test showed that the function of pancreatic islet was impaired in HF-fed TLR4 WT mice, but was protected in HF-fed TLR4 deficient (TLR4(-/-)) mice.
3547 23985305 By electron microscope detection, we observed that beta cell insulin secretory vesicles increased in HF-fed TLR4 WT mice.
3548 23985305 Then, glucose-stimulated insulin secretion assay by using primary pancreatic islet showed that the secretion function of pancreatic islet in HF-fed TLR4(-/-) mice was better than that in HF-fed TLR4 WT mice.
3549 23985305 Furthermore, in HF-fed TLR4(-/-) mice, the mRNA levels of IL-6, TNF-α, and MCP-1 genes in pancreatic islet were significantly lower than those in HF-fed TLR4 WT mice.
3550 24012111 This study was planned to explore the possible association between tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), urinary monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (uMCP-1), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) and parameters of oxidative stress in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and diabetic chronic kidney disease (DM-CKD).
3551 23611540 Induction of diabetes significantly increased renal sEH expression and decreased the renal EETs/DHETEs (dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acid) ratio without affecting HO-1 activity or expression in SHR.
3552 23611540 Inhibition of sEH with t-AUCB increased the renal EETs/DHETEs ratio and HO-1 activity in diabetic SHR; however, it did not significantly alter systolic blood pressure.
3553 23611540 Treatment of diabetic SHR with t-AUCB significantly reduced the elevation in urinary albumin and nephrin excretion, whereas co-administration of the HO inhibitor SnMP with t-AUCB prevented these changes.
3554 23611540 Immunohistochemical analysis revealed elevations in renal fibrosis as indicated by increased renal TGF-β (transforming growth factor β) levels and fibronectin expression in diabetic SHR and these changes were reduced with sEH inhibition.
3555 23611540 In addition, SnMP treatment also prevented t-AUCB-induced decreases in renal macrophage infiltration, IL-17 expression and MCP-1 levels in diabetic SHR.
3556 23611540 These findings suggest that HO-1 induction is involved in the protective effect of sEH inhibition against diabetic renal injury.
