Interleukin-1β and Tumor Necrosis Factor-α Decrease Collagen Synthesis and Increase Matrix Metalloproteinase Activity in Cardiac Fibroblasts In Vitro
Abstract
Abstract —We tested the hypothesis that the inflammatory cytokines can regulate fibroblast extracellular matrix metabolism. Neonatal and adult rat cardiac fibroblasts cultures in vitro were exposed to interleukin (IL)–1β (4 ng/mL), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α; 100 ng/mL), IL-6 (10 ng/mL), or interferon-γ (IFN-γ; 500 U/mL) for 24 hours. IL-1β, and to a lesser extent TNF-α, decreased collagen synthesis, which was measured as collagenase-sensitive [ 3 H]proline incorporation, but had no effect on cell number or total protein synthesis. IL-1β decreased the expression of procollagen α 1 (I), α 2 (I), and α1(III) mRNA, but increased the expression of procollagen α 1 (IV), α 2 (IV), and fibronectin mRNA, indicating a selective transcriptional downregulation of fibrillar collagen synthesis. IL-1β and TNF-α each increased total matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity as measured by in-gel zymography, causing specific increases in the bands corresponding to MMP-13, MMP-2, and MMP-9. IL-1β increased the expression of proMMP-2 and proMMP-3 mRNA, suggesting that increased metalloproteinase activity is due, at least in part, to increased transcription. The effects of IL-1β were not dependent on NO production. Thus, IL-1β and TNF-α decrease collagen synthesis and activate MMPs that degrade collagen. These observations suggest that IL-1β and TNF-α may contribute to ventricular dilation and myocardial failure by promoting the remodeling of interstitial collagen.

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.
