Transcriptional profiling of IKK2/NF-kappa B- and p38 MAP kinase-dependent gene expression in TNF-alpha-stimulated primary human endothelial cells.

Inflammatory stimulation of endothelial cells by tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) involves activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) and p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase signaling pathways. A reliable analysis of the gene expression program elicited by TNF-alpha and its assignment to distinct signaling pathways is not available. A sophisticated analysis of oligonucleotide microarrays covering more than 13 000 genes allowed definition of the TNF-alpha-regulated endothelial gene expression profile and novel TNF-alpha-induced genes. Virtually all TNF-alpha-inducible genes were dependent on I kappa B kinase 2 (IKK2)/NF-kappa B activation, whereas a minor number was additionally modulated by p38. Furthermore, genes suppressed by IKK2/NF-kappa B were newly identified. Real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and flow cytometry confirmed reliability of data. Thus, these results define a list of primary candidates for targeted modulation of endothelial functions during inflammation.[1]
