Background/Aims: We investigated the mechanism underlying anti-tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) effects of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) in human aortic endothelial cells. Methods: Tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1) was assessed by Western blot analysis. Cytosolic Ca2+ was measured using Fluo-4 AM. A disintegrin and metalloprotease 10 (ADAM10) was localized by immunofluorescence staining. Results: EGCG caused ectodomain shedding of TNFR1 within 30 min and attenuated TNF-α-induced endothelin-1 (ET-1) expression. EGCG-induced TNFR1 ectodomain shedding was prevented by BAPTA-AM (intracellular Ca2+ chelator), but not by the absence of extracellular Ca2+. In physiologic extracellular Ca2+ concentration, EGCG markedly increased cytosolic Ca2+. Even in the absence of extracellular Ca2+, EGCG raised cytosolic Ca2+, though less potently. siRNA depletion of ADAM10 prevented EGCG-induced ectodomain shedding of TNFR1 and also diminished the inhibitory effect of EGCG on TNF-α-induced ET-1 expression. EGCG caused translocation of ADAM10 to the plasma membrane, and this effect was prevented by BAPTA-AM. Besides extracellular Ca2+ influx, release of intracellular stored Ca2+ caused ADAM10-dependent ectodomain shedding of TNFR1. Conclusion: EGCG decreases the responsiveness of cells to TNF-α by causing ADAM10-dependent ectodomain shedding of TNFR1. This effect was attributed to its property to increase cytosolic Ca2+ through both extracellular Ca2+ influx and release of stored Ca2+.

Background/Aims: We investigated how diosgenin, a steroidal sapogenin, has anti-tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) effects in human aortic endothelial cells (HAECs). Methods: Tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1) was assessed by Western blot analysis. Intracellular Ca2+ was measured using Fluo-4 AM. Immunofluorescence staining was performed for a disintegrin and metalloprotease 10 (ADAM10). Results: Diosgenin (1 ∼ 100 nM) induced ectodomain shedding of TNFR1 within 30 min and attenuated TNF-α-induced intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression. Upon treatment with diosgenin, extracellular Ca2+ entered into the cells via L-type calcium channels, whereas diosgenin-induced ectodomain shedding of TNFR1 was almost completely inhibited by BAPTA-AM (intracellular Ca2+ chelator), verapamil (L-type calcium channel antagonist) and the absence of extracellular Ca2+. Diosgenin caused translocation of ADAM10 to the cell surface, which was mediated by extracellular Ca2+ influx. Depletion of ADAM10 prevented diosgenin-induced ectodomain shedding of TNFR1 and abolished the inhibitory effect of diosgenin on TNF-α-induced ICAM-1 expression. Diosgenin did not induce extracellular Ca2+ influx and ectodomain shedding of TNFR1 in cells depleted of 1,25D3-membrane associated rapid response steroid-binding receptor (1,25D3-MARRS receptor/ERp57). Conclusion: Diosgenin elicits L-type calcium channel-mediated extracellular Ca2+ influx, and thereby induces ADAM10-mediated ectodomain shedding of TNFR1. This effect of diosgenin was exerted through 1,25D3-MARRS receptor/ERp57.

Interleukin-6 (IL-6)-type cytokines are pleiotropic molecules capable of stimulating bone resorption and expressed by numerous cell types. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that gingival fibroblasts may exert local osteotropic effects through production of IL-6 and related cytokines. IL-6-type cytokine expression and regulation by IL-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were studied in fibroblasts from the non-inflamed gingiva of healthy individuals. Constitutive mRNA expression of IL-6, IL-11, and leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), but not of oncostatin M (OSM), was demonstrated, as was concentration-dependent stimulation of IL-6 and LIF mRNA and of protein by IL-1β and TNF-α. IL-11 mRNA and protein were concentration-dependently stimulated by IL-1β. The signaling pathway involved in IL-6 and LIF mRNA stimulation involved MAP kinases, but not NF-κB. The findings support the view that resident cells may influence the pathogenesis of periodontal disease through osteotropic IL-6-type cytokine production mediated by activation of MAP kinases.

Orthodontic tooth movement is dependent on osteoclast activity. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α plays an important role, directly or via chemokine release, in osteoclast recruitment and activation. This study aimed to investigate whether the TNF receptor type 1 (p55) influences these events and, consequently, orthodontic tooth movement. An orthodontic appliance was placed in wild-type mice (WT) and p55-deficient mice (p55−/−). Levels of TNF-α and 2 chemokines (MCP-1/CCL2, RANTES/CCL5) were evaluated in periodontal tissues. A significant increase in CCL2 and TNF-α was observed in both groups after 12 hrs of mechanical loading. However, CCL5 levels remained unchanged in p55−/− mice at this time-point. The number of TRAP-positive osteoclasts in p55−/− mice was significantly lower than that in WT mice. Also, there was a significantly smaller rate of tooth movement in p55−/− mice. Analysis of our data suggests that the TNFR-1 plays a significant role in orthodontic tooth movement that might be associated with changes in CCL5 levels.

Abstract The procoagulant properties of cultured vascular endothelial cells are enhanced in response to inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF). A major component of this response is a reduction in expression of thrombomodulin, a cell surface cofactor for the activation of protein C. Regulation of thrombomodulin expression by TNF has been reported to occur through multiple mechanisms. To determine the relative roles of transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulation, the effect of TNF on the turnover of thrombomodulin protein and mRNA was examined in human and bovine endothelial cells. Quantitative nuclease S1 protection assays showed a 70% to 90% reduction in thrombomodulin mRNA within 4 hours of the addition of 1.0 nmol/L TNF to the culture medium. The decrease in thrombomodulin mRNA resulted from inhibition of transcription, followed by rapid degradation of thrombomodulin transcripts (t1/2 less than or equal to 3 hours). In pulse-chase incubations, thrombomodulin synthesis decreased parallel with mRNA, but the rate of degradation of radiolabeled thrombomodulin was not significantly altered by TNF. Human thrombomodulin was degraded with a t1/2 of 8.2 +/- 2.4 hours (SD) or 7.5 +/- 1.3 hours (SD) in the absence or presence of TNF, respectively. We conclude that TNF acts primarily to inhibit thrombomodulin transcription. The subsequent decrease in activity results from the inherent instability of thrombomodulin mRNA and protein in these cells, and not from the regulation of thrombomodulin degradation.
