Abstract

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)/Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-mediated signaling pathways have caught the attention of strategies designed for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In this study, we identified that cPLA(2)alpha acted as a modulator of LPS-induced VCAM-1 expression and THP-1 (human acute monocytic leukemia cell line) adherence. Treatment of RA synovial fibroblasts (RASFs) with LPS, a TLR4 agonist, promoted the VCAM-1 expression and THP-1 adherence which were decreased by pretreatment with a selective cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2)) inhibitor (AACOCF(3)), implying the involvement of cPLA(2)alpha in these responses. This notion was further confirmed by knockdown of cPLA(2)alpha expression by transfection with cPLA(2)alpha small interfering RNA (siRNA) leading to a decrease in VCAM-1 expression and THP-1 adherence induced by LPS. Subsequently, the LPS-stimulated cPLA(2)alpha phosphorylation was attenuated by pretreatment with a MEK1/2 inhibitor (U0126), suggesting that LPS-stimulated cPLA(2)alpha phosphorylation and activity are mediated through an ERK-dependent mechanism. Moreover, COX-2-derived PGE(2) production appeared to involve in LPS-induced VCAM-1 expression which was attenuated by pretreatment with selective COX-2 inhi...Continue Reading

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function. Discover the latest research on adhesion molecule and their role in health and disease here.
