1 12858016 Induction of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) by soluble glucocorticoid induced tumor necrosis factor receptor (sGITR) is modulated by IFN-gamma in murine macrophage.
2 12858016 Earlier study showed that glucocorticoid induced tumor necrosis factor receptor (GITR), a new TNFR family, activated murine macrophages to express inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and to generate nitric oxide (NO).
3 12858016 A possible involvement of pro-inflammatory cytokines on NO production by GITR was investigated in vitro systems and signaling molecules contributing to sGITR-induced iNOS production are determined in Raw 264.7 cells, a murine macrophage cell line.
4 12858016 The result showed that the synergy was afforded by the combination of GITR with IFN-g in a dose-dependent manner but IFN-gamma alone was not able to induce NOS.
5 12858016 No effects were observed with TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, or IL-6 co-treated with GITR.
6 12858016 To determine signaling molecules contributing to sGITR-induced iNOS production, a specific inhibitor for signal pathway proteins tested showed that PDTC (NF-kappaB) and genistein (tyrosine kinase) inhibited NOS induction significantly, while sodium orthovanadate (tyrosine phosphatase) potentiated NOS expression.
7 12858016 These results suggest that activations of NF-kappaB were involved in induction of iNOS by GITR and IFN-gamma priming caused earlier and stronger NF-kappaB activation.
