Cytokine induction of monocyte chemoattractant protein‐1 gene expression in human endothelial cells depends on the cooperative action of NF‐χB and AP‐1
Abstract
Chemokines are potent mediators of cell migration and activation and therefore play an essential role in early events of inflammation. In conjunction with cell adhesion molecules, chemokines help to localize cells to a specific site and enhance the inflammatory reaction at the site. Clinically, elevated levels of chemokines have been found in a variety of inflammatory diseases. The prototype C‐C chemokine is monocyte chemoattractant protein‐1 (MCP‐1) which is synthesized by a variety of cell types including endothelial cells in response to a variety of stimuli. MCP‐1 is a major chemoattractant for monocytes, T lymphocytes, and basophils. In the present study, we investigated the factors involved in cytokine‐induced MCP‐1 gene expression in human endothelial cells. We present evidence that the nuclear factor (NF)‐χB‐like binding site and the AP‐1 binding site located 90 and 68 base pairs upstream of the transcriptional start site, respectively, are required for maximal induction of the human MCP‐1 promoter by interleukin‐(IL)‐1β. Site‐directed mutagenesis or deletion of the NF‐χB‐like site decreased the cytokine‐induced activity of the promoter. Site‐directed mutagenesis of the AP‐1 binding site also decreased the cytokine‐induced activity of the promoter. We show that the NF‐χB‐like site located at −90 in the MCP‐1 promoter binds to the p50/p65 heterodimer of the NF‐χB/Rel family in IL‐1β‐stimulated human endothelial cells. Overexpression of p65 results in the transactivation of the MCP‐1 promoter as well. The data presented in this study suggest that cytokine‐induced MCP‐1 gene expression in human endothelial cells depends on the cooperative action of NF‐χB and AP‐1.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
