Abstract

AbstractMalondialdehyde (MDA) is a highly reactive endogenous product of thromboxane synthesis in the prostagland and lipid peroxidation by reactive oxygen species. Elevated MDA levels occur in diabetes and atherosclerotic plaques. The aim of this study was to examine the molecular mechanisms of MDA-induced IL-17E cytokine expression and its effect on T-cell differentiation. Real-time PCR, RT-PCR and ELISA were used to assess the expression of IL-17 family cytokines in Jurkat T-cells and human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLCs) from diabetic subjects. Luciferase reporter assays were used for the promoter activation study. Pharmacological inhibitors were used for signaling pathway experiments. FACS analyses were used to measure the Th1, Th2 and Th17 subset levels. MDA induced significant (2- to 3-fold; p < 0.01) generation of IL-17E mRNA in a dose- and time-dependent manner in Jurkat T-cells and PBLCs. Elevated IL-17E mRNA levels were found in the lymphocytes from diabetic subjects. The increased IL-17E protein and mRNA levels correlate well with serum MDA levels from diabetic patients. Transient transfection of plasmid containing the minimum IL-17E promoter region (pIL-17E-Luc) showed a significant (2-fold; p < 0.01) increase in luciferase activity. Pretreatment of lymphocytes with pharmacological inhibitors showed the involvement of antioxidant, NF-ƙB, p38MAPK, PKC and ERK signaling pathways. Quantification of the Th1, Th2 and Th17 cell population in PBLCs via FACS analyses revealed an increase in the Th17 subset. These results show that MDA transcriptionally upregulates the expression of IL-17E in lymphocytes and alters lymphocyte differentiation towards the pathogenic Th17 subset.
