Treatment of RAW 264.7 cells with BSA-AGEs caused dose- and time-dependent increases in NO release and iNOS expression in RAW 264.7 cells, whereas BSA alone had no effect on iNOS induction. The tyrosine kinase inhibitor (genistein), the phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C inhibitor (U-73122), the phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C inhibitor (D-609), and the PKC inhibitors (staurosporine, Ro 31-8220, and Go 6976) all inhibited BSA-AGE-induced NO release and iNOS expression in RAW 264.7 cells. Stimulation of RAW 264.7 cells with BSA-AGEs resulted in the formation of inositol monophosphate; the response was attenuated by U-73122 and genistein. BSA-AGEs stimulated PKC-alpha, -betaI, -delta, and -eta but not -zeta translocation from the cytosol to the membrane. However, incubation of RAW 264.7 cells with BSA-AGEs increased phosphorylation of PKC-zeta at threonine-410, which reflects activation of PKC-zeta, indicating the possible involvement of these PKC isoforms in AGE-mediated effects. Pretreatment of RAW 264.7 cells with U-73122, D-609, and genistein reduced the AGE-stimulated translocation of PKC-alpha, -betaI, -delta, and -eta and activation of PKC-zeta. Taken together, these data suggest that BSA-AGEs might activate PKC and subsequently induce iNOS expression and NO release. ------>tmu_sno=None ------>sno=6342 ------>authors2=None ------>authors3=None ------>authors4=None ------>authors5=None ------>authors6=None ------>authors6_c=None ------>authors=Wu CH, Chen CM, and Lee HM ------>delete_flag=0 ------>SCI_JNo=None ------>authors2_c=None ------>publish_area=None ------>updateTitle=Role of protein kinase C in BSA-AGE-mediated inducible nitric oxide synthase expression in RAW 264.7 macrophages. ------>language=2 ------>check_flag= ------>submit_date= ------>country=None ------>no= ------>patent_SDate=None ------>update_bywho= ------>publish_year=2003 ------>submit_flag= ------>publish_month=None |
