Abstract
LPS-stimulated macrophages produce cytokines which, at appropriate levels, direct successful immune responses against harmful pathogens. However, excessive cytokine production, as seen in endotoxemia, results in pathophysiological damage to the host. Therefore, understanding mechanisms of cytokine regulation may aid the development of strategies designed to control cytokine production during an ongoing immune response. We have examined the role of okadaic acid-sensitive phosphatases in the production of cytokines and nitric oxide by macrophages. Okadaic acid induces TNFα, IL-1β, IL-6, IFN-β, and IP-10, but not IL-10 or IL-12 (p40) mRNA. Okadaic acid differentially regulates the expression of LPS-inducible IL-10 and IL-12 (p40) mRNA. These findings suggest that okadaic acid-sensitive phosphatases are key regulators of cytokine production in unstimulated and immune-activated macrophages. Finally, okadaic acid inhibits iNOS mRNA and nitric oxide production by macrophages activated by LPS and IFN-γ.

Abstract
The oxidative stress-responsive kinase 1 (OSR1) is activated by WNK (with no K kinases) and in turn stimulates the thiazide-sensitive Na-Cl cotransporter (NCC) and the furosemide-sensitive Na-K-2Cl cotransporter (NKCC), thus contributing to transport and cell volume regulation. Little is known about extrarenal functions of OSR1. The present study analyzed the impact of decreased OSR1 activity on the function of dendritic cells (DCs), antigen-presenting cells linking innate and adaptive immunity. DCs were cultured from bone marrow of heterozygous WNK-resistant OSR1 knockin mice (osr(KI)) and wild-type mice (osr(WT)). Cell volume was estimated from forward scatter in FACS analysis, ROS production from 2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein-diacetate fluorescence, cytosolic pH (pH(i)) from 2',7'-bis-(2-carboxyethyl)-5-(and-6)-carboxyfluorescein fluorescence, and Na(+)/H(+) exchanger activity from Na(+)-dependent realkalinization following ammonium pulse and migration utilizing transwell chambers. DCs expressed WNK1, WNK3, NCC, NKCC1, and OSR1. Phosphorylated NKCC1 was reduced in osr(KI) DCs. Cell volume and pH(i) were similar in osr(KI) and osr(WT) DCs, but Na(+)/H(+) exchanger activity and ROS production were higher in osr(KI) than in osr(WT) DCs. Before LPS treatment, migration was similar in osr(KI) and osr(WT) DCs. LPS (1 μg/ml), however, increased migration of osr(WT) DCs but not of osr(KI) DCs. Na(+)/H(+) exchanger 1 inhibitor cariporide (10 μM) decreased cell volume, intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation, Na(+)/H(+) exchanger activity, and pH(i) to a greater extent in osr(KI) than in osr(WT) DCs. LPS increased cell volume, Na(+)/H(+) exchanger activity, and ROS formation in osr(WT) DCs but not in osr(KI) DCs and blunted the difference between osr(KI) and osr(WT) DCs. Na(+)/H(+) exchanger activity in osr(WT) DCs was increased by the NKCC1 inhibitor furosemide (100 nM) to values similar to those in osr(KI) DCs. Oxidative stress (10 μM tert-butyl-hydroperoxide) increased Na(+)/H(+) exchanger activity in osr(WT) DCs but not in osr(KI) DCs and reversed the difference between genotypes. Cariporide virtually abrogated Na(+)/H(+) exchanger activity in both genotypes and blunted LPS-induced cell swelling and ROS formation in osr(WT) mice. In conclusion, partial OSR1 deficiency influences Na(+)/H(+) exchanger activity, ROS formation, and migration of dendritic cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The absorption of water and ions (especially Na(+) and Cl(-)) is an important function of colonic epithelial cells in both physiological and pathophysiological conditions. Despite the comprehensive animal studies, there are only scarce available data on the ion transporter activities of the normal and inflamed human colon. METHODS In this study, 128 healthy controls and 69 patients suffering from ulcerative colitis (UC) were involved. We investigated the expressional and functional characteristics of the Na(+)/H(+) exchangers (NHE) 1-3, the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC), and the SLC26A3 Cl(-)/HCO 3- exchanger downregulated in adenoma (DRA) in primary colonic crypts isolated from human biopsy and surgical samples using microfluorometry, patch clamp, and real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) techniques. RESULTS Data collected from colonic crypts showed that the activities of electroneutral (via NHE3) and the electrogenic Na(+) absorption (via ENaC) are in inverse ratio to each other in the proximal and distal colon. We found no significant differences in the activity of NHE2 in different segments of the colon. Surface cell Cl(-)/HCO 3- exchange is more active in the distal part of the colon. Importantly, both sodium and chloride absorptions are damaged in UC, whereas NHE1, which has been shown to promote immune response, is upregulated by 6-fold. CONCLUSIONS These results open up new therapeutic targets in UC.

Abstract
The present study evaluated the effect of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) on intestinal Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (NHE) activity and the cellular signaling pathways involved in T84 cells. T84 cells express endogenous NHE1 and NHE2 proteins, detected by immunoblotting, but not NHE3. The rank order for inhibition of NHE activity in acid-loaded T84 cells was 5-(N-ethyl-N-isopropyl)-amiloride (EIPA; IC(50)=519 [465, 579] nM)>cariporide (IC(50)=630 [484, 819] nM)>amiloride (IC(50)=19 [16, 24] microM); the NHE3 inhibitor S3226 was found to be devoid of effect. This different inhibitory sensitivity indicates that both NHE1 and NHE2 isoforms may play an active role in Na(+)-dependent intracellular pH (pH(i)) recovery in T84 cells. Short-term exposure (0.5 h) of T84 cells to 5-HT increased NHE activity in a concentration-dependent manner. The stimulation induced by 5-HT (30 microM) was partially inhibited by both WAY 100135 (300 nM) and ketanserin (300 nM), antagonists of 5-HT(1A) and 5-HT(2) receptors, respectively. NHE activity was significantly increased by 8-OH-DPAT and alpha-methyl-5-HT, agonists of, respectively, 5-HT(1A) and 5-HT(2) receptors. An incubation of T84 cells with anti-G(s) and anti-G(beta) antibodies complexed with lipofectin did not prevent the 5-HT-induced stimulation of NHE activity. Overnight treatment with anti-G(ialpha1,2) and anti-G(q/11) antibodies complexed with lipofectin blocked the stimulatory effect induced by 8-OH-DPAT and alpha-methyl-5-HT, respectively. It is concluded that in T84 cells 5-HT enhances intestinal NHE activity through stimulation of G(ialpha1,2)-coupled 5-HT(1A) and G(q/11)-coupled 5-HT(2) receptors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Amiloride, an inhibitor of Na+/H+ exchangers and Na+ channels has been shown recently to ameliorate both gut and lung injury in rats subjected to a combined insult of trauma and hemorrhagic shock (T/HS). We have shown previously that mesenteric lymph duct ligation prevents T/HS-induced lung endothelial injury and neutrophil activation, suggesting that toxic inflammatory factors originating from the gut and carried in the lymph are responsible for the lung injury observed after T/HS. This study investigates whether the protective effect of amiloride against T/HS-induced lung injury was associated with decreased lymph toxicity and gut permeability. METHODS Male rats subjected to trauma (laparotomy) plus hemorrhagic shock (mean arterial pressure, 30 mm Hgx90 min) (T/HS) or trauma plus sham shock (T/SS) and treated with amiloride or its vehicle had their mesenteric lymph duct catheterized. Mesenteric lymph collected before and after shock was assayed for biologic activity on endothelial cells (cytotoxicity and permeability) and neutrophils (respiratory burst activity). Gut permeability was assessed by monitoring plasma concentrations of the fluorescent dye FITC-dextran after its injection into the ileum. RESULTS Amiloride administration reduced the capacity of post-shock mesenteric lymph to prime neutrophils for an increased respiratory burst. Amiloride failed to decrease the ability of mesenteric lymph to kill endothelial cells or increase their permeability. Amiloride decreased gut permeability. CONCLUSIONS The mechanisms of the lung protective effect of amiloride in rats undergoing T/HS may be secondary to decreased neutrophil activation, diminished gut permeability, or an effect on the end organ.

Abstract
Immune cells such as macrophages and neutrophils provide the first line of defence of the immune system using phagocytosis, cytokine and chemokine synthesis and release, as well as Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) generation. Many of these functions are positively coupled with cytoplasmic pH (pHi) and/or phagosomal pH (pHp) modification; an increase in pHi represents an important signal for cytokine and chemokine release, whereas a decrease in pHp can induce an efficient antigen presentation. However, the relationship between pHi and ROS generation is not well understood. In immune cells two main transport systems have been shown to regulate pHi: the Na+/H+ Exchanger (NHE) and the plasmalemmal V-type H+ ATPase. NHE is a family of proteins which exchange Na+ for H+ according to their concentration gradients in an electroneutral manner. The exchanger also plays a key role in several other cellular functions including proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, migration, and cytoskeletal organization. Since not much is known on the relationship between NHE and immunity, this review outlines the contribution of NHE to different aspects of innate and adaptive immune responses such as phagosomal acidification, NADPH oxidase activation and ROS generation, cytokine and chemokine release as well as T cell apoptosis. The possibility that several pro-inflammatory diseases may be modulated by NHE activity is evaluated.

Abstract
Background—
Recently, we demonstrated that the amiloride derivative ethylisopropylamiloride (EIPA) limits vascular smooth muscle cell growth and migration. The purpose of the present experiments was to determine whether EIPA can also reduce the inflammatory component of atherogenesis and stent neointima formation.
Methods and Results—
To determine the effect of EIPA on the early inflammatory stages of atherogenesis, apolipoprotein E null mice (apoE
−/−
) fed an atherogenic diet received a subcutaneous pump infusion of either EIPA (3 mg · kg
−1
d
−1
) or the control vehicle for 4 weeks. The en face aortic area of atherosclerotic lesions and the subendothelial accumulation of macrophages were reduced by 46% and 38%, respectively, in EIPA-treated mice. Moreover, the number of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) immunopositive lumenal endothelial cells was 59% less in the EIPA treatment group. In vitro, there was a concentration-dependent inhibition of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced VCAM-1 expression with a corresponding 37% reduction in U-937 cell adhesion to endothelial cells. EIPA also reduced LPS-stimulated nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) activation as reflected by a 66% reduction in NF-κB nuclear translocation. Finally, to test the effect of EIPA on the early inflammatory reaction to stent implantation, stents coated with jelly alone or jelly plus EIPA were implanted into rabbit iliac arteries. Four weeks later, the stent neointimal area, abundance of peristrut macrophages, and density of intimal smooth muscle cells were reduced by 38%, 47%, and 37%, respectively, for EIPA stents.
Conclusions—
EIPA downregulates endothelial cell activation of NF-κB and VCAM-1 expression and attenuates the early inflammatory stages of atherogenesis and stent intimal formation.

Abstract
Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (NHE) activation has been documented to contribute to endothelial cell injury caused by inflammatory states. However, the role of NHEs in regulation of the endothelial cell inflammatory response has not been investigated. The present study tested the hypothesis that NHEs contribute to endothelial cell inflammation induced by endotoxin or interleukin (IL)-1beta. NHE inhibition using amiloride, 5-(N-ethyl-N-isopropyl)-amiloride, and 5-(N-methyl-N-isobutyl)amiloride as well as the non-amiloride NHE inhibitors cimetidine, clonidine, and harmaline suppressed endotoxin-induced IL-8 and monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1 production by human umbilical endothelial vein cells (HUVECs). The suppressive effect of amiloride on endotoxin-induced IL-8 production was associated with a decreased accumulation of IL-8 mRNA. NHE inhibitors suppressed both inhibitory (I)kappaB degradation and nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB DNA binding, suggesting that a decrease in activation of the IkappaB-NF-kappaB system contributed to the suppression of HUVEC inflammatory response by NHE blockade. NHE inhibition decreased also the IL-1beta-induced HUVEC inflammatory response, because amiloride suppressed IL-1beta-induced E-selectin expression on HUVECs. These results demonstrate that maximal activation of the HUVEC inflammatory response requires a functional NHE.

Abstract
Na+/H+ exchangers (NHEs) are integral transmembrane proteins found in all mammalian cells. There is substantial evidence indicating that NHEs regulate inflammatory processes. Because intestinal epithelial cells express a variety of NHEs, we tested the possibility that NHEs are also involved in regulation of the epithelial cell inflammatory response. In addition, since the epithelial inflammatory response is an important contributor to mucosal inflammation in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), we examined the role of NHEs in the modulation of disease activity in a mouse model of IBD. In human gut epithelial cells, NHE inhibition using a variety of agents, including amiloride, 5-(N-methyl-N-isobutyl)amiloride, 5-(N-ethyl-N-isopropyl)- amiloride, harmaline, clonidine, and cimetidine, suppressed interleukin-8 (IL-8) production. The inhibitory effect of NHE inhibition on IL-8 was associated with a decrease in IL-8 mRNA accumulation. NHE inhibition suppressed both activation of the p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein kinase and nuclear factor-kappaB. Finally, NHE inhibition ameliorated the course of IBD in dextran sulfate-treated mice. Our data demonstrate that inhibition of NHEs may be an approach worthy of pursuing for the treatment of IBD.

Abstract
The amiloride-inhibitable Na(+)/H(+) antiporter plays an important role in macrophage activation. The intracellular pathways leading to interleukin (IL)-12 p40 production by activated macrophages are incompletely understood. In the present study, we examined the contribution of the Na(+)/H(+) antiporter to the production of IL-12 p40. Amiloride or its analogs decreased the production of IL-12 p40 in macrophages stimulated with bacterial lipopolysaccharide and interferon-gamma. The order of potency of amiloride analogs was consistent with the proposition that the effect of amiloride is mediated by the inhibition of the Na(+)/H(+) antiporter. The effect of amiloride was post-transcriptional, as IL-12 p40 mRNA levels induced by lipopolysaccharide and interferon-gamma were not affected by this inhibitor. Furthermore, the inhibitory effect of amiloride on IL-12 p40 production was not a result of interference with the activation of the p38 and p42/44 mitogen-activated protein kinases or c-Jun kinase. In summary, the production of IL-12 p40 requires a functional Na(+)/H(+) antiporter.

Abstract
Early osteoclast precursors, in the form of murine bone marrow macrophages (BMMs), while expressing no detectable alpha(v)beta3 integrin, contain abundant alpha(v)beta5 and attach to matrix in an alpha(v) integrin-dependent manner. Furthermore, alpha(v)beta5 expression by osteoclast precursors progressively falls as they assume the resorptive phenotype. We find the osteoclastogenic agent, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, (TNF) down-regulates alpha(v)beta5 expression by BMMS via attenuation of beta5 messenger RNA (mRNA) t1/2. Using BMMs from TNF receptor knockout mice we establish the p55 receptor transmits the beta5 suppressive effect. The functional implications of TNF-mediated alpha(v)beta5 down-regulation are underscored by the capacity of an alpha(v) inhibitory peptide mimetic to prevent spreading by BMMs expressing abundant alpha(v)beta5 while failing to impact those in which the integrin has been diminished by TNF. Finally, beta5 mRNA in BMMs of wild-type mice administered lipopolysaccharide (LPS) progressively falls with time of in vivo treatment. Alternatively, beta5 mRNA does not decline in BMMs of LPS-treated mice lacking both TNF receptors, documenting down-regulation of the beta5 integrin subunit, in vivo, is mediated by TNF. Thus, matrix attachment of osteoclast precursors and mature osteoclasts are governed by distinct alpha(v) integrins which are differentially regulated by specific cytokines.

Abstract
The proliferative response of hematopoietic cells is regulated by many factors, including the presence and type of growth factors, the cellular microenvironment, and the physiochemical conditions prevailing in the tissue milieu. A process fundamental to all cells is the regulation of the intracellular acid-base conditions. One of the mechanisms by which intracellular pH (pHi) is regulated is through the sodium/hydrogen exchanger, a ubiquitous membrane protein which exploits the intra- and extracellular sodium ion gradient to drive hydrogen ions out of the cell. However, activation of the exchanger via mitogenic and nonmitogenic signals leads to an increase in pHi which, in turn, may directly or indirectly result in a proliferative response. It has been shown that interaction of fibronectin with its integrin receptor subunits alpha4 and alpha5 can result in activation of the Na+/H+ exchanger. In this report, we demonstrate that when mouse bone marrow cells are physically brought together in a preculture system we designate as high cell density culture (HCDC), in a small volume and at the same cellularity as that in the marrow, hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell populations are stimulated with no additional stimulation in the presence of growth factors. Neutralizing antibodies to the growth factors added to HCDC had little, if any, effect on the degree of stimulation. However, when antibodies to fibronectin or the alpha4 integrin subunit were added to HCDC, inhibition was observed, indicating that the observed hematopoietic stimulation occurred via the fibronectin-integrin pathway. Addition of 5 microM 5-(N,N-hexamethylene) amiloride (5-HMA), a specific inhibitor of the Na+/H+ exchanger, also resulted in inhibition of in vitro hematopoiesis. Since the exchanger was implicated, we then measured the pHi of normal and HCDC-treated bone marrow cells in the absence and presence of 5-HMA by flow cytometry using the fluorescent pH-sensitive indicator, carboxy SNARF-1 AM. It was found that cells subjected to HCDC exhibited a higher pH than normal fresh cells. In each case, the pH was lowered in the presence of 5-HMA. Furthermore, addition of antibodies to fibronectin or the alpha4 integrin subunit to HCDC also reduced the pH, to a similar level to that found for 5-HMA. Our results demonstrate, for the first time, that a hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell proliferative response can be initiated by activation of the Na+/H+ exchanger, leading to an increase in pHi, via cell-cell interaction through the fibronectin-integrin pathway. This pathway could, therefore, be significant not only in normal hematopoietic regulation, but also under pathophysiological conditions.

Abstract
Interferon-gamma inducible protein 10 kD (IP-10) is a highly inducible, primary response gene that belongs to the C-X-C chemokine superfamily. Despite the original cloning of IP-10 in 1985, its biological functions are still unclear although accumulating reports indicate that it is a pleiotropic molecule capable of eliciting potent biological effects, including stimulation of monocytes, natural killer and T-cell migration, regulation of T-cell and bone marrow progenitor maturation, modulation of adhesion molecule expression as well as inhibition of angiogenesis. More interest is now likely to be focused on IP-10 due to the recent cloning of an IP-10 receptor. This paper aims to highlight our current knowledge of IP-10 and its homologues as well as defining its likely involvement in regulating fibroproliferation following inflammatory lung injury.

Abstract
Incubation of rat peritoneal macrophages with the bacterial product lipopolysaccharide (LPS) caused significant increases in the production of nitrite, a stable endproduct of nitric oxide (NO). Addition of the digitalis-derived glycoside ouabain, which alone is without effect, significantly enhanced the stimulating effects of LPS. The Na+ ionophore monensin was without any effect, while the Ca2+ ionophore A23187, like ouabain, enhanced the effect of LPS. Thus ouabain may enhance the LPS-stimulated NO production in rat peritoneal macrophages via still unknown mechanisms in which Ca2+ ions are most likely involved.

Abstract
Endothelial cells play a pivotal role in the development of atherosclerosis. An 'activated' phenotype of these cells is manifested by signal transduction-dependent expression of genes encoding cytokines, pro- and anticoagulant factors, and cell adhesion molecules. In the current study we examined the effect of ouabain, an inhibitor of Na+/K(+)-ATPase, on the process of endothelial cell activation. We demonstrated that ouabain was able to stimulate VCAM-1 expression and potentiate the effect of IFN-gamma on this process. Moreover, ouabain provided a complementary signal for either TNF or IFN-gamma in inducing iNOS expression. Our data also show, for the first time, that inhibition of Na+/K(+)-ATPase led to activation of the transcription factor, NF-kappa B, which may provide an explanation for the effects of ouabain on endothelial cells.

Abstract
To account for infiltration of the periodontal tissues by neutrophils, the present study was undertaken to examine whether Porphyromonas gingivalis fimbriae, important structures involved in attachment of the bacteria to periodontal tissues, induce gene expression of the neutrophil chemoattractant KC in macrophages. The fimbriae induced expression of the KC gene of mouse peritoneal macrophages in a dose-dependent fashion. The peak of KC gene expression was observed as early as 1 h after initiation of the treatment. However, the gene expression was short lived, with the expression decreasing gradually after 6 h. A nuclear transcriptional assay showed that the fimbriae regulated the KC gene expression at a posttranscriptional level. We observed that the fimbria-induced KC gene expression was not regulated by endogenous or exogenous prostaglandin. Furthermore, forskolin, a potent activator of adenyl cyclase, and dibutyryl cyclic AMP were incapable of inducing KC gene expression of the peritoneal macrophages. H-8 and HA 1004, inhibitors of cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinases, had little effect on the fimbria-induced KC gene expression. On the other hand, the fimbria-induced KC gene expression was inhibited markedly by treatment with H-7, a potent inhibitor of protein kinase C. We also observed that phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, a specific activator of protein kinase C, induced KC gene expression of peritoneal macrophages in a dose-dependent fashion. In addition, the fimbria-induced KC gene expression was suppressed in the peritoneal macrophages pretreated for 24 h with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. These results suggest that the KC gene expression was mediated through activation of protein kinase C and not through that of cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinases. The present study indicates that P. gingivalis fimbriae can induce gene expression of the neutrophil chemotactic factor KC by macrophages via protein kinase C and suggests that this factor may be involved in infiltration of neutrophils into the periodontal tissues of adult periodontal patients.
