Abstract EN
Specific strains of Lactobacillus have been found to be beneficial in treating some types of diarrhea and vaginosis.
However, a high mortality rate results from underlying immunosuppressive conditions in patients with Lactobacillus casei bacteremia.
Cyclic AMP (cAMP) is a small second messenger molecule that mediates signal transduction.
The onset and progression of inflammatory responses are sensitive to changes in steady-state cAMP levels.
L.
casei cell wall extract (LCWE) develops arteritis in mice through Toll-like receptor-2 signaling.
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether intracellular cAMP affects LCWE-induced pathological signaling.
LCWE was shown to induce phosphorylation of the nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways and cell proliferation in mice fibroblast cells.
Theophylline and phosphodiesterase inhibitor increased intracellular cAMP and inhibited LCWE-induced cell proliferation as well as phosphorylation of NF-κB and MAPK.
Protein kinase A inhibitor H89 prevented cAMP-induced MAPK inhibition, but not cAMP-induced NF-κB inhibition.
An exchange protein activated by cAMP (Epac) agonist inhibited NF-κB activation but not MAPK activation.
These results indicate that an increase in intracellular cAMP prevents LCWE induction of pathological signaling pathways dependent on PKA and Epac signaling.
