Treatment of rat mesangial cells with interleukin 1 beta (IL-1 beta) and forskolin greatly enhanced the expression of group II phospholipase A2 (PLA2) mRNA, with subsequent increased synthesis and secretion of PLA2, as detected by PLA2 activity measurements and immunoprecipitation of culture media of [35S]methionine-labelled mesangial cells. PDGF-BB dose-dependently suppressed the IL-1 beta- and forskolin-induced elevation of PLA2 mRNA, as well as PLA2 synthesis and secretion. In contrast, PDGF-AA had no inhibitory effect. The tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein dose-dependently antagonized the inhibitory effect of PDGF-BB on IL-1 beta-stimulated PLA2 secretion, thus suggesting that tyrosine phosphorylation may be required for PDGF-BB inhibition of PLA2 gene expression in mesangial cells.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007375 Interleukin-1 A soluble factor produced by MONOCYTES; MACROPHAGES, and other cells which activates T-lymphocytes and potentiates their response to mitogens or antigens. Interleukin-1 is a general term refers to either of the two distinct proteins, INTERLEUKIN-1ALPHA and INTERLEUKIN-1BETA. The biological effects of IL-1 include the ability to replace macrophage requirements for T-cell activation.

D010741 Phospholipases A Phospholipases that hydrolyze one of the acyl groups of phosphoglycerides or glycerophosphatidates.
D010982 Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Mitogenic peptide growth hormone carried in the alpha-granules of platelets. It is released when platelets adhere to traumatized tissues. Connective tissue cells near the traumatized region respond by initiating the process of replication. Platelet Derived Growth Factor,Factor, Platelet-Derived Growth,Growth Factor, Platelet-Derived
