Induction of TNF-α and MnSOD by endotoxin: role of membrane CD14 and Toll-like receptor-4

Abstract: Endotoxin (LPS) is a potent inducer of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD). Recent evidence suggests that LPS induction of TNF-alpha and MnSOD mRNAs is mediated through distinct intracellular signal transduction pathways. Membrane CD14 (mCD14) and Toll-like receptor-4 (TLR4) mediate LPS induction of TNF-alpha in macrophages. In the current study, we evaluated the role of mCD14 and TLR4 in LPS induction of MnSOD using peritoneal macrophages from CD14 knockout (CD14… Show more

“…Furthermore, it was suggested that Mn-SOD was associated with mucosal defense against H. pylori infection [37]. TLR-mediated expression of Mn-SOD has been reported in macrophages challenged with different TLR ligands [38,39] and our study is the first to indicate that it is up-regulated in epithelial cells upon TLR2 activation. Our observation that saLP induces the expression of Mn-SOD suggests that TLR activation leads to a protective mechanism to reduce cell damage that might be caused by host inflammatory response.…”

“…These findings suggest that the mutation that shapes LPS susceptibility probably exerts its effect in a cell-specific way (Gibbs et al 1992). Tsan et al (2001) additionally demonstrated that induction of MnSOD by LPS is mediated by mCD14 and TLR4 in murine macrophages.…”

“…For example, Tsan et al (49) reported that LPS was unable to induce TNF and manganese superoxide dismutase in isolated, CD14 Ϫ/Ϫ peritoneal macrophages at low concentrations but could induce TNF and manganese superoxide dismutase at higher concentrations of LPS. Similar concentration-dependent findings have been reported in peritoneal macrophages for TNF message and for certain LPS-inducible genes including IL12 (p35 and p40) and COX-2 (50).…”
