Interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) is closely involved in liver disorders. IL-1beta produces nitric oxide (NO) in vascular smooth muscle cells and relaxes vascular smooth muscle via cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP). In this study, we evaluated the relaxing effect of IL-1beta on cultured Ito cells. Ito cells were isolated from the livers of male Wistar rats and cultured for 24 hours. Immunolocalization of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cGMP and intensity of fluorescence of cGMP were examined using a confocal laser microscope. Ito cells were treated with 0, 200, and 1,000 pmol/L IL-1beta, and the intracellular cGMP concentration was measured after 12 hours. Moreover, Ito cells treated with 200 and 1,000 pmol/L IL-1beta and not treated with IL-1beta were observed over 12 hours, and the area of the same Ito cell was compared before and after the addition of IL-1beta. Next, effects of N(G)-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA) and S-nitroso-N-acetyl-DL-penicillamine (SNAP) on Ito cell relaxation by IL-1beta treatment were examined. In Ito cells, immunofluorescence of iNOS was observed, and fluorescent intensity of cGMP increased after addition of IL-1beta. Intracellular cGMP concentration increased dose-dependently after addition of IL-1beta. Cell area significantly increased in the IL-1beta-treated group compared with the untreated group. Relaxation of Ito cells by IL-1beta treatment was inhibited by L-NMMA in a dose-dependent manner, but was enhanced by SNAP. These results indicate that IL-1beta produces NO in cultured Ito cells and relaxes the cells via cGMP.

Interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) 与肝脏疾病密切相关。IL-1beta在血管平滑肌细胞中产生一氧化氮 (NO),并通过环鸟苷3 ',5'-单磷酸 (cGMP) 松弛血管平滑肌。在这项研究中,我们评估了IL-1beta对培养的Ito细胞的松弛作用。从雄性Wistar大鼠的肝脏中分离Ito细胞,并培养24小时。使用共聚焦激光显微镜检查诱导型一氧化氮合酶 (iNOS) 和cGMP的免疫定位以及cGMP的荧光强度。Ito细胞用0、200和1,000 pmol/L IL-1beta处理,12小时后测定细胞内cGMP浓度。此外,在12小时内观察到用200和1,000 pmol/L IL-1beta处理和不用IL-1beta处理的Ito细胞,并比较在添加IL-1beta前后相同Ito细胞的面积。接下来,通过IL-1beta处理检查了N(G)-单甲基-L-精氨酸 (L-NMMA) 和S-亚硝基-N-乙酰基-DL-青霉胺 (SNAP) 对Ito细胞松弛的影响。在Ito细胞中,观察到iNOS的免疫荧光,加入IL-1beta后cGMP的荧光强度增加。加入IL-1beta后,细胞内cGMP浓度呈剂量依赖性增加。与未处理组相比,IL-1beta-treated组的细胞面积显着增加。IL-1beta处理对Ito细胞的松弛以剂量依赖性方式被l-nmma抑制,但被SNAP增强。这些结果表明,IL-1beta在培养的Ito细胞中产生NO,并通过cGMP使细胞松弛。
