Proinflammatory Cytokines But Not Acute Phase Serum Amyloid A Or C-Reactive Protein, Downregulate Paraoxonase 1 (Pon1) Expression By Hepg2 Cells
The expression of paraoxonase1 (PON1) during inflammation has been investigated in vitro. The alteration of steady state PON1 mRNA in HepG2 cells by interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), was investigated relative to acute-phase serum amyloid A (A-SAA) mRNA. PON1 m...

Summary: | The expression of paraoxonase1 (PON1) during inflammation has been investigated in vitro. The alteration of steady state PON1 mRNA in HepG2 cells by interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), was investigated relative to acute-phase serum amyloid A (A-SAA) mRNA. PON1 mRNA expression by HepG2 cells was decreased within three hours of stimulation by IL-1beta or TNF-alpha. Relative to PON1 mRNA expression, the pattern of steady state A-SAA mRNA expression was altered reciprocally and inversely by IL-1beta. These findings suggested that the decrease in serum PON activity after abdominal surgery in our previous clinical study may be ascribed to a decrease in steady state PON1 mRNA expression by liver with proinflammatory cytokines. |
