AbstractInflammatory
processes involve both synthesis of inflammatory cytokines, such as
interleukin-6 (IL-6), and the activation of their distinct signaling
pathways, eg, the janus kinases (JAKs) and signal transducers and
activators of transcription (STAT). Superoxide
(O2-) anions
activate this signaling cascade, and the vasoconstrictor angiotensin II
(Ang II) enhances the formation of
O2- anions via the
NAD(P)H oxidase system in rat aortic smooth muscle cells. Ang II
activates the JAK/STAT cascade via its type 1
(AT1) receptor and induces synthesis and release
of IL-6. Therefore, we investigated the role of
O2- anions
generated by the NAD(P)H oxidase system on the Ang II activation of the
JAK/STAT cascade and its impact on IL-6 synthesis. Ang II stimulation
of rat aortic smooth muscle cells induced a rapid increase in
O2- anions
determined by laser fluoroscopy, which can be abolished by DPI, a
flavoprotein inhibitor. Ang IIinduced phosphorylation of JAK2,
STAT1
/ß, STAT3, and IL-6-synthesis can be abolished by DPI, as
determined by immunoprecipitations and Northern blot analysis.
Electroporation of neutralizing antisera targeted against
p47phox,
a NAD(P)H oxidase subunit, abolished Ang IIinduced JAK/STAT
activation and IL-6 synthesis. Inhibition of JAK2 by its inhibitor
AG490 (10 µmol/L) blocked not only JAK2 activation but also IL-6
synthesis. These results suggest that stimulation of the JAK/STAT
cascade by Ang II requires
O2- anions
generated by the NAD(P)H oxidase system, and
O2-
aniondependent activation of the JAK/STAT cascade seems to be
additionally involved in Ang IIinduced IL-6 synthesis. Thus, Ang
IIinduced inflammatory effects seem to require
O2- anions
generated by the NAD(P)H oxidase
system.
