SUMMARY: The authors investigated the intracellular signal transduction for interleukin (IL)-1 &induced endothelin (ET) production by endothelial cells frog cultured human umbilical vein (HUVEC). Cultured HUVEC released immunoreactive (iR)-ET into the media in a time-dependent manner and a significant increase of iR-ET production was observed by the addition of IL- 113. The stimulating effect of IL- I l3 on iR-ET production was respectively inhibited by protein kinase C (C kinase) inhibitor (H-7), Ca-calmodulin inhibitor (W-7), cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (A kinase) inhibitor (H-8) and tyrosine kinase inhibitor (genistain) in a dose-dependent fashion. The data suggested that intracellular signal transduction for IL-I R-induced iR-ET production were via such pathways as C kinase, A kinase, Ca-calmodulin and tyrosine kinase in combination or independently, though possible mediation by other pathways cannot be ruled out. 0 1992 AC?

IL-113on the ET production from cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) in an attempt to elucidate the intracellular signal transduction for IL-l& induced ET production, using various inhibitors including protein kinase C inhibitor (H7), Ca-cahnodulin inhibitor (W-7), inhibitor of prostaglandin synthesis (indomethacin), tyrosine kinase inhibitor (genistain) and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor (H-8).

MATERIALS AND METHODS Cell culture: Endocell-kit U. a kit cotaining EGM-UV ( modified MCDB 131 medium supplemented with 2% fetal calf serum, 50 mg/ml gentamycin, 0.25 mg/ml amphotericin B, I pg/ml hydrocortisone, IO pg/ml endothelial growth factor, 2.5 @ml heparin and 2.5 mg protein endothelial growth supplement ) (9) (10) and HUVEC was purchased from Kurabo Co. (Osaka, Japan). Cells which between the 3rd and 4th passage, were grown in EGM-UV under 5% COd 95% air at 37OC. Medium was exchanged every other day. When cells reached a confluence, they were detached from the plates using 0.025% trypsin and 0.01% EDTA. Exueriments: 5x 103cells /well were planted on 24 well culture dishes (Becton Dickinson Co., New Jersey, USA). When cells reached a confluence, the culture medium was removed and lml of fresh serum-free medium EBM (Kurabo, Osaka, Japan) containing modified MCDB I3 1was added, and the cells were incubated in the presence or absence of 5 rig/ml human recombinant IL- I D (Genzyme Co., Boston, USA), 10-9 - IO-6 M l-(5isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine dihydrochloride (H-7, Seikagaku Kogyo, Tokyo, Japan), 5x I O-9- 5x10-6 M N-[6-(aminohexyl)]-5-chloro- I -naphthalenesulfonamide hydrochloride (W-7, Seikagaku Kogyo ), IO-9-lo-6M N-[2-(methyl-amino) ethyl]-S-isoquinolinesulfonamide dihydrochloride (H-8, Seikagaku Kogyo ), 1 - 100 pg/ml genistain (Funakosi Pharmaceutical Co., Tokyo, Japan) and 3x1!-9- 3x10-6M indomethacin (Funakosi Pharmaceutical Co.) under 5% CO2/ 95% air at 37OC for 24 h. After incubation of the cells, the culture medium was centrifuged at 1,500 rpm for 10 min and the supernatant was stored at -80 OC until the measurement of immunoreactive (iR)ET concentration. Radioimmunoassav: ET-I, 2 [12sI]-assay system, specific for ET-l and ET-2, were purchased from Amersham Japan Co. (Tokyo, Japan). Statistical analvsis: Statistical significances were analyzed by a multiple comparison ttest.

RESULTS Effect of IL- 10 on iR-ET production by HUVEC. As shown in Fig. 1, iR-ET production by HUVEC increased in a time-dependent fashion. The addition of 5 n&ml IL-10 significantly enhanced iR-ET production at l2h, 24h and 4811of incubation compared to the level on incubation medium alone at the designated incubation period (p< 0.01, p< 0.05, p< 0.001, respectively). Effect of H-7 on iR-ET production by HUVEC. As shown in Fig. 2, H-7 suppressed IL1B-stimulated iR-ET production in a dose-dependent manner and significantly suppressed the production at I O-7and 10-s M (p< 0.05, p< 0.01, respectively). Effect of W-7 on iR-ET uroduction bv HUVEC. As shown in Fig. 3, W-7 significantly enhanced iR-ET production by HUVEC at concentrations of 5x I O-9 M, 5x 10-sM and
