Inhibitory effects of CCK-8 on NF-?B activities stimulated by LPS in rat PIMs / 中国病理生理杂志

ABSTRACT

AIM: To investigate the inhibitory effects of cholecystokinin octapeptide(CCK-8) on nuclear factor-?B(NF-?B) activities stimulated by lipopolysaccharide(LPS) by using forskolin,the activator of adenylate cyclase,and PKA inhibitor H-89 in rat pulmonary interstitial macrophages(PIMs).METHODS: PIMs were isolated and purified.EMDA was applied to detect NF-?B activities and Western blotting was used to analyze the I?B-? protein level in rat PIMs.RESULTS: The NF-?B activity was not detected in normal control rat PIMs.The NF-?B activity in LPS-treated rat PIMs was obviously higher than that in control group(P0.05).The NF-?B activity in CCK+LPS group and LPS+Fsk group were obviously lower than that in LPS group(P
