Abstract

To assess the possible influence of endogenous glucocorticoids on cytokine expression in the brain, adrenalectomized mice and sham operated mice were injected with saline or lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 10 micrograms/mouse, subcutaneously) and the levels of transcripts for IL-1 alpha, IL-1 beta, IL-1ra, IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF alpha) were determined 2 h after treatment in the spleen, pituitary, hypothalamus, hippocampus and striatum, using semi-quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Levels of IL-1 beta were measured by ELISA in plasma and tissues of mice sacrificed after the administration of LPS or saline. LPS induced the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines at the mRNA level in all tissues under investigation, except for TNF alpha in the hippocampus. This effect was potentiated by adrenalectomy in the spleen for IL-1 alpha and IL-1ra, the pituitary for cytokines other than IL-1ra, the hypothalamus for all cytokines, the hippocampus for cytokines other than TNF alpha, and the striatum for IL-1 alpha and IL-6. In saline-treated mice, adrenalectomy increased IL-1 alpha and IL-1 beta gene expression in the hypothalamus and IL-1 alpha gene expression in the hippocampus and striatum. LPS increased plasma and tissue levels of IL-1 beta, as determined by ELISA, and this effect was potentiated by adrenalectomy in plasma and tissues other than the spleen. These results can be interpreted to suggest that endogenous glucocorticoids regulate the neural components of the host response to infection and inflammation by inhibiting cytokine expression in peripheral organs and the brain.

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.
