Bradykinin-related peptides up-regulate the expression of kinin B1 and B2 receptor genes in human promonocytic cell line U937.

Abstract: Kinins, universal mediators of inflammation, are recognized by two kinds of receptors, B1 and B2, which have been found to be expressed in numerous cell types of several species. However, the knowledge of the regulation of these receptors in leukocytes is still not satisfactory. In the current work, we have demonstrated a constitutive production of B2 receptor mRNA in the human promonocyte U937 cells and its two-fold augmentation after cell differentiation with retinoic acid and phorbol ester. Bradykinin and d… Show more

“…Interestingly, the stimulation of B1R mRNA expression by BK and INF‐γ was delayed as compared to the immediate effect of DAKD. Such a time lag in response suggested autoregulation of kinin receptors by their agonists in the endothelial cells as we previously reported for U937 cells [Guevara‐Lora et al, ]. In this study, we established that a similar regulation of B1R expression might occur in the endothelial cells.…”

“…In addition, a more recent report suggested down-regulation of B1R responses by the B2R agonist that is associated with co-endocytosis of the B1R-B2R dimer (Zhang et al, 2015). The suggestions that B1R-B2R interactions may be involved in the regulation of receptor expression mediated by the agonist of the partner receptor agree with previous reports, indicating autoregulation between B1R and B2R (Phagoo et al, 1999;Guevara-Lora et al, 2009).…”

“…This observation may be associated with the emergence of other stimuli that can promote proinflammatory response, e.g. overexpression of B1R due to prolonged B2R stimulation (Guevara-Lora et al, 2009) or activation of signaling pathways promoting chemotactic activity (Koyama et al, 2000). Indeed, B1R mediation in the interaction between PMN and endothelial cells has been reported (Figueroa et al, 2015).…”
