Signal transduction for inhibition of inducible nitric oxide synthase and cyclooxygenase‐2 induction by capsaicin and related analogs in macrophages

Abstract: 1 Although capsaicin analogs might be a potential strategy to manipulate inflammation, the mechanism is still unclear. In this study, the effects and action mechanisms of vanilloid analogs on iNOS and COX-2 expression were investigated in RAW264.7 macrophages. 2 Capsaicin and resiniferatoxin (RTX) can inhibit LPS-and IFN-g-mediated NO production, and iNOS protein and mRNA expression with similar IC 50 values of around 10 mM. 3 Capsaicin also transcriptionally inhibited LPS-and PMA-induced COX-2 expression and … Show more

“…The HCl-induced increase in PAF was abolished by the TRPV1 receptor antagonist IRTX. The increase in PAF levels in mucosa and supernatant, however, was not affected by neural block with TTX, indicating that production of PAF required no axonal conductance and most likely originated from the esophageal epithelium, consistent with the demonstrated presence of TRPV1 in nonneural cells such as keratinocytes of the epidermis (57,58), the human keratinocyte cell line HaCat (57), the human bronchial epithelial cell line BEAS-2B (65), bladder urothelium and smooth muscle (7,8), liver (51), polymorphonuclear granulocytes (30), and macrophages (17).…”

“…Although the mechanism of TRPV1 channel activation after irradiation is still unknown, possible mediators include radiation-induced reactive oxygen species and secondary generation of nitric oxide in irradiated cells, 33) or radiation-induced extracellular release of ATP from cells, we have reported. [34][35][36][37] On the other hand, it is well known that TRPV1 channel is involved in inflammation and pain sensation, [38][39][40][41] and TRPV1 channel inhibitors are candidates as analgesic drugs to relieve cancer pain. 42,43) Therefore, TRPV1 inhibitors might offer dual benefits in cancer therapy, having both anti-inflammatory and radiosensitizing actions.…”

“…However, a number of recent pharmacological, genetic, radioligand binding and immunohistochemical studies suggest widespread distribution and functionality of TRPV1 across the CNS (Cavanaugh et al, 2011;Goswami et al, 2010;Han et al, 2013;O'Sullivan et al,2000;Sanchez et al, 2001). TRPV1 is also found on nonneuronal cells such as keratinocytes (Southall et al, 2003), bladder urothelium (Lazzeri et al, 2004), smooth muscle (Birder et al, 2002), liver (Reilly et al, 2003), polymorphonuclear granulocytes (Heiner et al, 2003), pancreatic β-cells (Akiba et al, 2004), endothelial cells (Golech et al, 2004), lymphocytes (Saunders et al, 2007) and macrophages (Chen et al, 2003).
