Differential regulation of resveratrol on lipopolysacchride-stimulated human macrophages with or without IFN-gamma pre-priming.

摘要

Resveratrol, a polyphenol compound found in grapes and red wines, is a prominent anti-cancer agent. In this study, we demonstrate that resveratrol enhanced TNF-alpha, IL-12 and IL-1beta production from LPS activated phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) differentiated THP-1 human macrophages. Expression of CD86 on macrophages was enhanced by resveratrol alone and with LPS. When macrophages were primed with IFN-gamma, resveratrol suppressed the expression of HLA-ABC, HLA-DR, CD80, CD86 and inhibited production of TNF-alpha, IL-12, IL-6 and IL-1beta induced by LPS. The differential impact of resveratrol on expression of CD14 might be correlated with differential response of macrophages to LPS with or without IFN-gamma priming.
