Abstract

Haptoglobin (Hp) is an acute phase protein, and its plasma level increases consistently in response to inflammation. To investigate the biological role of Hp in lung epithelial cells, the gene expressions of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and inflammatory cytokines were analyzed using human Hp gene-transfected A549 cells. Western blot analysis showed that COX-2 expression was markedly increased in Hp DNA-transfected cells (stable transfection and transient transfection) compared with that in vehicle DNA-transfected cells. When the Hp-expressing cells were treated with $1{\mu}g/ml$ of LPS or 100 U/ml of $IL-1{\beta}$ for 24 hr, the COX-2 expression was synergistically up-regulated. ACP-based PCR data demonstrated the Hp decreased SPARC expression, but increased IL-4 and S100AI expressions. These findings suggest that the Hp acts as a pro-inflammatory mediator in lung inflammation.

합토글로빈(Hp)은 조직손상이나 감염 등의 염증시에 혈중 농도가 증가하는 급성기반응단백질로서 주로 간에서 생합성되지만 염증을 동반한 폐에서도 발현됨이 보고되었다. 폐에서 합성되는 Hp이 염증반응에 어떤 영향을 주는지를 조사하고자, Hp을 과발현하는 폐상피세포를 사용하여 COX-2 및 염증관련 cytokine들의 발현을 조사하였다. Stable transfection 또는 transient transfection된 A549 세포에서 Hp이 잘 발현되고 있음을 확인한 후 COX-2의 발현을 측정한 결과, Hp의 과발현에 의해 COX-2 합성이 현저히 증가함을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 Hp을 과발현하는 A549세포에 LPS ($1{\mu}g/ml$) 또는 $IL-1{\beta}$ (100 U/ml)를 각각 24시간 동안 처치하였을 때, Hp에 의한 COX-2 발현 증가는 LPS또는 $IL-1{\beta}$자극에 의해 협동적으로 증가하였다. ACP-based PCR 방법으로 염증관련 cytokine들의 발현을 측정한 결과, Hp에 의해 SPARC의 발현이 현저히 저하되는 반면에 IL-4 및 S100A1 유전자 발현은 약간 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 결과들은 폐상피세포에서 Hp이 염증반응을 활성화시키는 기전으로 작용함을 시사한다.
