TNF-alpha induced a dose- and time-dependent increase in cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression and PGE2 formation in human NCI-H292 epithelial cells. Immunofluorescence staining demonstrated that COX-2 was expressed in cytosol and nuclear envelope. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (genistein or herbimycin) or phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C inhibitor (U73122) blocked TNF-alpha-induced COX-2 expression. TNF-alpha also stimulated phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis and protein kinase C (PKC) activity, and both were abolished by genistein or U73122. The PKC inhibitor, staurosporine, also inhibited TNF-alpha-induced response. The 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA), a PKC activator, also stimulated COX-2 expression, this effect being inhibited by genistein or herbimycin. NF-kappaB DNA-protein binding and COX-2 promoter activity were enhanced by TNF-alpha, and these effects were inhibited by genistein, U73122, staurosporine, or pyrolidine dithiocarbamate. TPA stimulated both NF-kappaB DNA-protein binding and COX-2 promoter activity, these effects being inhibited by genistein, herbimycin, or pyrolidine dithiocarbamate. The TNF-alpha-induced, but not the TPA-induced, COX-2 promoter activity was inhibited by phospholipase C-gamma2 mutants, and the COX-2 promoter activity induced by either agent was attenuated by dominant-negative mutants of PKC-alpha, NF-kappaB-inducing kinase, or I-kappaB (inhibitory protein that dissociates from NF-kappaB) kinase (IKK)1 or 2. IKK activity was stimulated by both TNF-alpha and TPA, and these effects were inhibited by staurosporine or herbimycin. These results suggest that, in NCI-H292 epithelial cells, TNF-alpha might activate phospholipase C-gamma2 via an upstream tyrosine kinase to induce activation of PKC-alpha and protein tyrosine kinase, resulting in the activation of NF-kappaB-inducing kinase and IKK1/2, and NF-kappaB in the COX-2 promoter, then initiation of COX-2 expression and PGE2 release.

IL-1beta induced an increase in ICAM-1 expression in human A549 epithelial cells and immunofluorescence staining confirmed this result. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (genistein or tyrphostin 23) or phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C inhibitor (D609) attenuated IL-1beta-induced ICAM-1 expression. IL-1beta produced an increase in PKC activity and this effect was abolished by D609. PKC inhibitors (staurosporine, Ro 31-8220, calphostin C, or Go 6976) also inhibited IL-1beta-induced response. TPA, a PKC activator, stimulated ICAM-1 expression as well, this effect being inhibited by tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Treatment of cells with IL-1beta resulted in stimulation of p44/42 MAPK, p38, and JNK. However, neither the mitogen activated protein kinase kinase inhibitor PD 98059 nor the p38 inhibitor SB 203580 affected IL-1beta-induced ICAM-1 expression. NF-kappaB DNA-protein binding and ICAM-1 promoter activity were enhanced by IL-1beta and these effects were inhibited by tyrphostin 23, but not by PD 98059 or SB 203580. TPA also stimulated NF-kappaB DNA-protein binding and ICAM-1 promoter activity as well, these effects being inhibited by tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Dominant-negative PKCalpha, NIK, or IKK2, but not IKK1 mutant, inhibited IL-1beta- or TPA-induced ICAM-1 promoter activity. IKK activity was stimulated by either IL-1beta or TPA, and these effects were inhibited by Ro 31-8220 or tyrphostin 23. Taken together, IL-1beta activates phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C and induces activation of PKCalpha and protein tyrosine kinase, resulting in the stimulation of NIK, IKK2, and NF-kappaB in the ICAM-1 promoter, then initiation of ICAM-1 expression. However, activation of p44/42 MAPK, p38, and JNK is not involved.

TNF-alpha induced an increase in intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression in human A549 epithelial cells and immunofluorescence staining confirmed this result. The enhanced ICAM-1 expression was shown to increase the adhesion of U937 cells to A549 cells. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (genistein or tyrphostin 23) or phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C (PC-PLC) inhibitor (D 609) attenuated TNF-alpha-induced ICAM-1 expression. TNF-alpha produced an increase in protein kinase C (PKC) activity and this effect was inhibited by D 609. PKC inhibitors (staurosporine, Ro 31-8220, calphostin C, or Go 6976) also inhibited TNF-alpha-induced response. 12-O-Tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), a PKC activator, stimulated ICAM-1 expression, this effect was inhibited by genistein or tyrphostin 23. Treatment of cells with TNF-alpha resulted in stimulation of p44/42 MAPK, p38, and JNK. However, TNF-alpha-induced ICAM-1 expression was not affected by either MEK inhibitor, PD 98059, or p38 inhibitor, SB 203580. A cell-permeable ceramide analog, C(2) ceramide, also stimulated the activation of these three MAPKs, but had no effect on ICAM-1 expression. NF-kappaB DNA-protein binding and ICAM-1 promoter activity were enhanced by TNF-alpha and these effects were inhibited by D 609, calphostin C, or tyrphostin 23, but not by PD 98059 or SB 203580. TPA also stimulated NF-kappaB DNA-protein binding and ICAM-1 promoter activity, these effects being inhibited by genistein or tyrphostin 23. TNF-alpha- or TPA-induced ICAM-1 promoter activity was inhibited by dominant negative PKCalpha or IKK2, but not IKK1 mutant. IKK activity was stimulated by both TNF-alpha and TPA, and these effects were inhibited by Ro 31-8220 or tyrphostin 23. These data suggest that, in A549 cells, TNF-alpha activates PC-PLC to induce activation of PKCalpha and protein tyrosine kinase, resulting in the stimulation of IKK2, and NF-kappaB in the ICAM-1 promoter, then initiation of ICAM-1 expression and neutrophil adhesion. However, activation of p44/42 MAPK, p38, and JNK is not involved in this event.
