Ethanol induces IL-6 and TNF-α cytokine and iNOS and COX-2 enzyme gene expression in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes

Abstract: It is known that alcohol influences on human health and its effects are widely studied. Adipose tissue (AT) may be an important target of ethanol action. Data about the effect of ethanol on cytokine and pro-inflammatory enzymes' gene expression in adipocytes are scarce. The aim of the present study was to establish its effect on transcription of inflammatory markers IL-6, TNF-a, COX-2 and iNOS in cultured 3T3-L1 cells. MTT test was performed in order to determine ethanol effect on cell viability. Expression of… Show more

“…Viability of treated cells was evaluated using 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) reduction assay 8 with some modifications. 9 10 Cells were seeded in 2 × 10 5 cells/well in 6-well plates with DMEM (with 4.5 g/L glucose, with phenol red and L-glutamine) (Lonza, Belgium) supplemented with 10% FBS, 100 U/mL penicillin/100 μg/mL streptomycin mixture. After 24 hours, culture medium was replaced and cells were treated with DMEM (with 4.5 g/L glucose, without phenol red and L-glutamine) (Lonza, Belgium) containing FP D12 or PT (0.00625 mg/mL, 0.0125 mg/mL, 0.025 mg/mL, 0.25 mg/mL, 2.5 mg/mL, 5 mg/mL).…”
