AbstractHuman monocyte
chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) is expressed by a variety of cell
types in response to various stimuli. MCP-1 expressed by the
endothelium plays an important role in cell migration
and activation. MCP-1 is a major chemoattractant for monocytes, T
lymphocytes, and basophils. In the present study, we present
evidence that the proteasome complex is involved in mediating the
interleukin (IL)-1ß induction of MCP-1 in endothelial
cells. We present evidence that a proteasome inhibitor,
N-acetyl-leucinyl-leucinyl-norleucinal (norLeu), and the
protease inhibitor
tosyl-Phe-chloromethylketone (TPCK) block IL-1ß
induction of MCP-1 protein expression. norLeu and TPCK also blocked
IL-1ßinduced MCP-1 promoter-driven reporter gene expression as well
as nuclear factor (NF)-
Bmediated reporter gene expression. The
effects of norLeu were due to its inhibition of the proteasome rather
than calpain, because other calpain inhibitors had no
effect on MCP-1 expression. In contrast to TPCK, which blocked NF-
B
translocation to the nucleus, norLeu had no effect on NF-
B nuclear
translocation or IL-1ßinduced phosphorylation of
p65. This study demonstrates that the proteasome pathway is involved in
IL-1ßinduced MCP-1 gene expression in human endothelial cells.
