radicalsCyclooxygenase-2(Cox-2)metabolites produced by endothelial cells,particularly prostacyclin and prostaglandin E 2,profoundly affect vascular tone,regional blood flow,and angiogenesis.We have previously shown that reactive oxygen species induce Cox-2expression in human endothelial cells (HUVEC),either on their own or as components of the signaling pathway triggered by TNF α,the prototypical in flammatory cytokine.Here we investigated the role of Cox-2induced by hydrogen peroxide (H 2O 2),either exogenous or endogenously generated by TNF α,in the repair of a mechanically wounded HUVEC monolayer and probed the sources of H 2O 2that are involved in TNF αsignaling and the pathways through which H 2O 2modulates Cox-2expression.Results indicate that H 2O 2-induced Cox-2activity participates in the repair of wounded monolayers.Both NADPH oxidase and the mitochondrial electron transport chain are involved in H 2O 2generation.Signaling triggered by H 2O 2for Cox-2induction acts by increasing the protein tyrosine kinase phosphorylation that follows inhibition of protein phosphatase activity.The activation of p38MAPK and its interaction in the inhibition of serine/threonine phosphatase activity are both critical steps in this event.We conclude that Cox-2induced by H 2O 2plays an important role in promoting endothelial wound repair after injury,so that the cardioprotective effect of Cox-2is due at least in part to its power of healing damaged endothelium.©2009Elsevier Inc.All rights reserved.Endothelial cells are pivotal in the regulation of vascular functions,including cell adhesion,in flammatory responses,regulation of permeability,and vasoactivity.Regeneration of the endothelial surface after vascular damage requires cell activation,migration,and proliferation,all events that are critical for neovascularization and wound repair [1].Reactive oxygen species (ROS)also play a central role in vascular physiology,and their effects on vascular function depend critically onthe amounts produced.The principal mediator of ROS-dependent signaling is hydrogen peroxide (H 2O 2),which is generated in response to receptor stimulation and is an ef ficient signal-transdu-cing molecule in endothelial cell migration [2].Its involvement as second messenger is based on two lines of evidence.First,H 2O 2accumulation follows the binding of growth factors and cytokines to their cognate receptors [3,4]and the downstream events are inhibited by scavenging enzymes or by antioxidants [5,6].Second,exposure of endothelial cells to H 2O 2induces the activation of signaling cascades [7,8].In particular,protein tyrosine and serine/threonine phosphatases are susceptible to H 2O 2-dependent inactiva-tion by oxidation or glutathionylation of a critical active-site-containing cysteine [9–11],with consequent phosphorylation-depen-dent activation of several signal transducers.Several sources of H 2O 2produced in response to receptor binding have been described in endothelial cells.The activation of nonin-flammatory NADPH oxidase family members,with subsequentspontaneous or enzymatic dismutation of superoxide anion (O 2U−)to H 2O 2,is the prime candidate for oxidant production in the plasma membrane microenvironment [12].H 2O 2can also be produced by mitochondria under physiological conditions and in response to receptor stimulation,as shown by the effects of inhibitors at speci ficFree Radical Biology &Medicine 46(2009)1428–1436Abbreviations:Cox-2,cyclooxygenase-2;Cox-1,cyclooxygenase-1;PGE 2,prosta-glandin

ROS are cyclooxygenases(Cox's)and NO synthase(eNOS)[15,16,9].Arachidonic acid metabolites are important in the modulation of vascular homeostasis[17].The major rate-limiting enzymes involved in their synthesis are Cox's.Cox-1is constitutively expressed in most tissues and has general housekeeping functions,whereas Cox-2is responsible for high-level production of prostanoids in response to proinflammatory agents,tumor promoters,and growth factors[18]. Enzymatic Cox-2activity may serve as a compensatory mechanism to preserve the vasodilatory and antithrombotic properties of the vessel wall[19].Indeed,Cox-2metabolites produced by endothelial cells, particularly prostacyclin and prostaglandin E2(PGE2),have profound influences on vascular tone,regional bloodflow,vascular permeability and remodeling,angiogenesis,and wound repair[20,21].The balance between these autacoids is consequently critical in many pathophy-siological processes.We previously showed that ROS induce Cox-2expression in human endothelial cells,either on their own or as components of the inflammatory TNFαsignaling pathway[22].We therefore investi-gated whether Cox-2induced by H2O2affects the repair of a wounded endothelial monolayer and explored the signaling pathways whereby H2O2promotes Cox-2expression in endothelial cells.Materials and methodsMaterialsHuman recombinant tumor necrosis factor-α(TNFα)was from R and D Systems(Space Import–Export,Milan,Italy).PGE2,rote-none,thenoyltrifluoroacetone(TTFA),okadaic acid,calyculin A, H2O2,Nω-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester hydrochloride(L-NAME), sodium orthovanadate,sodium pyruvate,apocynin(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyacetophenon),and crystal violet were from Sigma–Aldrich S.r.l.(Milan,Italy).Stigmatellin and p-nitrophenyl phosphate were from Fluka(Sigma–Aldrich S.r.l.).SB203580,MnTMPyP,and NS-398were from Biomol(Tebu-Bio,Milan,Italy).Arachidonic acid sodium salt and the stable prostacyclin analog iloprost were from Cayman Chemical(Spi-Bio,Montigny Le Bretonneux,France). Arachidonyl trifluoromethyl ketone(AACOCF3)was from Alexis (Vinci-Biochem,Vinci,Firenze,Italy).NSC-87877,a selective inhibitor of the protein tyrosine phosphatase containing the Src homology domain2(SHP-2)was from Acros Organics(Nova Chimica,Milan,Italy).Antibodies against Cox-2(Ab29)and Cox-1 were gifts from Aida Habib(American University of Beirut, Lebanon)and from Cayman Chemical,respectively.Antibody against SHP-2and protein A/G–agarose were from Santa Cruz Biotechnology(Tebu-Bio,Milan,Italy).Antibody against phospho-tyrosine was from Upstate Biotechnology(Millipore,Milan,Italy). Antibodies against phosphorylated and total p38MAPK were from Biosource(Prodotti Gianni S.p.A,Milan,Italy).Peroxidase-con-jugated anti-mouse IgG antibody was from Jackson Immuno-Research Labs(Li StarFISH,Milan,Italy).Antibody directed against β-actin was from Sigma–Aldrich.Cell culture and treatmentHuman umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVEC)were isolated from freshly acquired human umbilical veins,as described[22]. Informed consent was provided according to the Declaration of Helsinki.Cells were cultured in medium199(BioWhittaker Italia S.r.l., Bergamo,Italy)supplemented with10%heat-inactivated pooled human AB serum,1mM L-glutamine,50U/ml penicillin,50μg/ml streptomycin,0.1mg/ml neomycin,15μg/ml heparin,and50μg/ml crude extract of endothelial cell growth factor.Cells were used at the first passage.Heparin and endothelial cell growth supplement were omitted24h before stimulation.Incubations were carried out in M199medium supplemented with0.75%bovine serum albumin (fatty-acid-free and low in endotoxin;Sigma–Aldrich)and1%fetal calf serum.Inhibitors were added1h before stimulation.Cytotoxicity measurementCell viability was assayed with the use of either neutral red or MTT reduction assay and calculated as follows:relative viability= [(A e–A b)/(A c–A b)]×100,where A b is the background absorbance, A e is the experimental absorbance,and A c is the absorbance of controls.The various agents,at the concentrations tested,did not affect cell viability after either6or16h incubation.A slight reduction in viability,detected by MTT,was observed when HUVEC were incubated with stigmatellin and subsequently exposed to TNFα.Data (medians and ranges)were92.7%viable cells(76.5–100%),p=0.12, n=5,and84.5%viable cells(70–100%),p=0.25,n=4,vs cells incubated with TNFαfor6and16h,respectively.Prostanoid production assayCox-2activity was determined in HUVEC exposed to stimuli for6h. Cells were washed in Hanks'buffer,pH7.4,containing1mg/ml bovine serum albumin and incubated for30min with10μM arachidonic acid in the same buffer.Supernatants were collected and6-keto-PGF1αand PGE2levels were measured by enzyme immunoassay(Cayman Chemical).Western blotCells were harvested in lysis buffer,pH6.8,as described[22].Cell debris was removed by centrifugation(10,000g for5min)and protein concentration was determined by the micro-bicinchoninic acid assay. Equal amounts of lysates were subjected to SDS–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis on7%gels and were transferred onto nitrocellulose membrane by a semidry transfer unit(Hoefer Scientific Instruments). The blots were then incubated with primary antibodies directed against Cox-1(1:500),Cox-2(1:10,000),and phosphorylated and total p38MAPK(1/1000).In some experiments,membranes were stripped and phosphotyrosine was detected with an antibody against phosphotyrosine(1:5000).Horseradish peroxidase-conjugated sec-ondary antibody was used at1:5000dilution.β-Actin was used as internal standard for control of protein load.Bands were detected using enhanced chemiluminescence(Amersham Pharmacia Biotech.).SHP-2immunoprecipitation,Western blotting,and activityCells were scraped in lysis buffer(50mM Tris–HCl,pH7.4,1% Nonidet P-40,0.25%sodium deoxycholate,150mM NaCl,1mM EDTA)supplemented with1mM PMSF,1μg/ml aprotinin,1μg/ml leupeptin,1μg/ml pepstatin,1mM Na3VO4,1mM NaF.Protein concentration was determined.Cell lysates(500μg)were incubated with the antibody to SHP-2(1.5μg)for2h at4°C and with protein A/G Plus–agarose beads for18h at4°C.Beads were washed(three times)in phosphatase buffer(62mM Hepes,pH7,6.25mM EDTA). Immune complexes were resuspended in electrophoresis sample buffer,boiled for3min,and immunoblotted with the anti-SHP-2 antiserum(1:500),as described above.SHP-2phosphatase activity was detected as reported[23].Briefly,immunocomplexes were washed twice in phosphatase buffer and resuspended in100μl of the same buffer containing the substrate p-nitrophenyl phosphate (10mM).Incubation was carried out for30min at37°C and stopped with NaOH(200mM).Substrate dephosphorylation was quantified spectrophotometrically at410nm.1429S.Eligini et al./Free Radical Biology&Medicine46(2009)1428–1436RNA isolation and reverse-transcription PCR(RT-PCR)Total RNA(1μg)was extracted from cells with TRIzol reagent, treated with DNase I(Invitrogen,Milan,Italy),and reverse transcribed(37°C for50min)by M-MLV reverse transcriptase (Invitrogen).The cDNA(1μl)was then subjected to22or30cycles of PCR for GAPDH and Cox-2,respectively(denaturation at94°C for 30s,annealing at55°C for30s,primer extension at72°C for60s), in a reaction mixture(50μl)containing 2.5U platinum Taq polymerase(Invitrogen)and200nM sense and antisense primers for Cox-2or GAPDH.The primers for Cox-2were as previously described[24].All reactions were performed in a Bio-Rad thermal cycler.PCR products were analyzed on2%agarose gel containing ethidium bromide(0.5μg/ml).GAPDH mRNA was used as a control for mRNA loading.Monolayer wound-healing migration assayThe wound-repair model employed confluent HUVEC monolayers maintained in M199supplemented with10%pooled human AB serum in35-mm dishes.The monolayer was wounded by dragging a1000-μl pipette tip along it[25,26],and HUVEC were cultured without (control)or with H2O2or TNFα.Just after wounding or after overnight incubation(16h),monolayers werefixed,stained with crystal violet, and photographed(50×magnification).Inhibitors were added1h before the stimuli.For the evaluation of wound closure undervariousFig.1.H2O2,either exogenously added or intracellularly generated by TNFα,induces closure of HUVEC monolayer wounds via a Cox-2-mediated mechanism.(A)Photomicrographs were taken just after wounding(prestimulation)or after16h incubation in medium alone(control)or in the presence of TNFα10ng/ml,H2O23μM,PGE210nM,or iloprost100nM.

been reported to be dependent on intracellular ROS production[25]as well as Cox-2 activity[26],we found that both TNFαand H2O2accelerate the closure of a wounded monolayer after mechanical disruption(Fig.1).NS-398, an inhibitor of Cox-2activity,opposed the entry of cells into denuded areas and wound closure,whereas addition of PGE2to the culture accelerated closure(Fig.1).A similar effect,albeit less pronounced, was observed after exposing monolayers to the prostacyclin analog iloprost(Fig.1).The data indicate that Cox-2activity is critical for H2O2-induced HUVEC monolayer repair.Woundedmonolayers Fig.2.H2O2,either exogenously added or intracellularly generated by TNFα,increases PGE2and6-keto-PGF1αlevels and induces Cox-2expression in HUVEC.(A)HUVEC wereleft

Biology&Medicine46(2009)1428–1436exposed to H 2O 2or TNF αshowed morphologies similar to each other but different from the morphology of untreated cells (Fig.1A,insets).H 2O 2induces Cox-2in HUVECAs previously observed for TNF α[22],exogenous H 2O 2increased the levels of the Cox-2metabolites 6-keto-PGF 1αand PGE 2in the medium of HUVEC incubated with arachidonic acid (Fig.2A).Theincrease was attributable to augmented Cox-2protein levels induced by H 2O 2,either added as a bolus or endogenously generated by TNF α(Figs.2B and C ).Cox-2protein accumulation by H 2O 2was evident at 3h,persisted until 16h (Fig.2B),and was detectable at concentrations (b 10μM)that do not cause oxidative stress in cultured mammalian cells [9](Fig.2D).In contrast,Cox-1protein levels were unaffected (Figs.2B –D ).Cox-2mRNA levels,almost undetectable in unstimulated HUVEC,rose upon cell exposure to H 2O 2or TNF α(Fig.2E).Antioxidants prevent Cox-2induction by H 2O 2The redox status within the cell is critical for Cox-2induction by H 2O 2whether exogenous or endogenous.Alteration of the intracellular oxidant status by sodium pyruvate,which prevents H 2O 2-induced glutathione depletion in HUVEC [8],or by the membrane-permeative superoxide dismutase and catalase mimetic MnTMPyP [27]attenuated Cox-2induction by H 2O 2or TNF α(Fig.3).Different sources of H 2O 2mediate Cox-2induction by TNF αand regulate wound closure in HUVEC monolayersThe contribution of distinct sources of H 2O 2that coexist in endothelial cells was examined in HUVEC exposed to TNF α.First,the role of NADPH oxidase-derived H 2O 2was investigated by use of the NADPH oxidase inhibitor apocynin,which markedly prevented Cox-2induction (Fig.4A).Then the contribution of mitochondrial H 2O 2production was investigated in HUVEC incubated with inhibitors of the various complexes within the electron transport chain.Stigmatellin,which prevents electron transfer by complex III from ubiquinol to both iron –sulfur protein and heme b 566(Qo site)[28],reduced Cox-2levels (Fig.4B),which,conversely,were unaffectedbyFig.3.The intracellular redox status affects Cox-2expression in HUVEC.HUVEC were exposed to sodium pyruvate or to the superoxide dismutase mimetic MnTMPyP for 30min.TNF αor H 2O 2was then added and incubation was continued for 6h.Cox-2was detected by Western analysis.β-Actin was used as a control for protein

contrast,rotenone,a complex I inhibitor [29],increased Cox-2levels in HUVEC whether the cells were resting or stimulated (Fig.4B).Finally,the respective contributions of H 2O 2generation by Cox's,lipoxygenases,and uncoupled eNOS were investigated in cells exposed to AACOCF 3(10–20μM)or L-NAME (1mM),which inhibit phospholipase A 2and eNOS activity,respectively.The results obtained exclude a role for H 2O 2from these sources in Cox-2induction (data not shown).The functional role of H 2O 2generated by either NADPH oxidase or mitochondrial complex III was de fined by a series of experiments performed in mechanically wounded HUVEC mono-layers.As shown in Fig.4C,both apocynin and stigmatellin retarded the closure of a wound promoted by TNF α.H 2O 2-mediated Cox-2induction:role

residues [30].As shown in Fig.5A,blocking protein tyrosine phosphatase activity by the general inhibitor orthovanadate resulted in Cox-2induction that went hand in hand with increased tyrosine phosphorylation (espe-cially within 97-and 116-kDa fractions).Additional experiments assessed the effect of H 2O 2or TNF αon the activity of cytosolic SHP-2,a protein tyrosine phosphatase that is critical for cell motility and is rapidly inactivated by oxidants [31,32].Both TNF αand H 2O 2signi ficantly reduced the activity of immunopuri fied SHP-2(Fig.5B),leaving protein levels unaltered (data not shown).However,the selective inhibition of SHP-2activity by NSC-87877(10–50μM)[33]did not affect Cox-2expression in HUVEC,either unstimulated or incubated with TNF αor H 2O 2(data not shown).Both calyculin A,a cell-permeative inhibitor of both serine/threonine phosphatases PP1and PP2A,and okadaic acid,a selective inhibitor of PP2A at 1nM [34],increased Cox-2levels in HUVEC,similar to H 2O 2or TNF α(Fig.5C).The increase in Cox-2levels paralleled the increase in phosphoty-rosine residues (particularly within the 66-and 116-kDa fractions).Moreover,the effect of calyculin A or okadaic acid was additive to that of H 2O 2or TNF α,in terms of both Cox-2up-regulation and protein tyrosine phosphorylation.Overall,serine/threonine phosphatase inhibition seems to be a candidate mechanism for Cox-2induction by H 2O 2in HUVEC.Involvement of p38MAP kinase in Cox-2induction by H 2O 2p38MAPK activation is among the signaling pathways involved in protein phosphatase inhibition [35].The role of p38MAPK activation as part of signal transduction driven by H 2O 2,either intracellularly generated or exogenously added,was therefore explored.Under our conditions,either H 2O 2or TNF αincreased the extent of p38MAPK phosphorylation,which peaked at 15min and returned to basal levels within 60min (Fig.6A).In addition,the p38MAPK inhibitor SB203580abrogated Cox-2induction by either H 2O 2or TNF αalmost completely (Fig.6B)and reduced the accumulation of Cox-2in HUVEC treated with calyculin A or okadaic acid (Fig.6C).Collectively,the data indicate that activation of p38MAPK and its interaction with serine/threonine phosphatase inhibition represent an essential step for Cox-2induction by H 2O 2in HUVEC.A diagram that illustrates the proposed signaling pathways through which Cox-2participates in H 2O 2-mediated endothelial wound repair is depicted in Fig.7.DiscussionOur results show that Cox-2up-regulation by H 2O 2increases cell migration to a wound made in a con fluent HUVEC monolayer.The H 2O 2can be either exogenously added or produced by the NADPH oxidase or mitochondrial chain in response to TNF α.The relevant pathways involve inhibition of serine/threonine phosphatases,acti-vation of p38MAPK,and theirinteraction.Fig.5.Inhibition of protein phosphatase activity results in Cox-2induction in HUVEC.(A)HUVEC were exposed to orthovanadate,a

malignancies [36].Their roles,particularly that of PGE 2,in endothelial cell migration and wound healing have recently been appreciated both in vitro and in vivo [37,38]in variousexperimental models of healing [39,40]and de novo vascularization [38].The ability of PGE 2to directly stimulate angiogenesis in HUVEC,separate from VEGF signaling,has been recently reported [41].ROS have long been known to play a role in many diseases and have also emerged as ef ficient signaling molecules.The principal mediator of ROS-dependent signaling is H 2O 2.Endothelial cell migration within the wound is dependent upon H 2O 2production,which contributes to cytoskeleton reorganization required for the migratory phenotype and for density-dependent inhibition of cell growth [25,42].Low concentrations of H 2O 2support the healing process in vivo [43],and endogenous H 2O 2exerts a cardioprotective effect during ischemia –reperfusion injury in an animal model of coronary microcirculation [44].Previous studies have recognized the important role of NADPH oxidase-derived ROS in HUVEC migration and proliferation [45,46],and this enzyme is a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of angiogenesis-dependent diseases [47].In line with these observations,our data indicate that inhibition of NADPH oxidase prevents Cox-2induction and retards the closure of wounded HUVEC monolayers promoted by TNF α.In addition,we show that H 2O 2derived from mitochondrial complex III takes part in wound healing via Cox-2induction,as documented by the reduced Cox-2levels detected upon complex III inhibition.This finding fits well with the recent observation of a crucial role of mitochondria-derived H 2O 2in the regulation of the angiogenic switch via PTEN oxidation in redox-engineered cell lines [48]and is in support of the crucial role of complex III in ROS generation observed in HUVEC [49].The inhibition of electron transport from complex I to ubiquinone by rotenone increased Cox-2levels in resting or stimulated HUVEC.As in othercellFig.7.Proposed role for Cox-2in H 2O 2-induced wound repair in human endothelialcells.Fig.6.Involvement of p38MAP kinase in Cox-2induction by

[关键词]环氧化酶2抑制剂;狼疮性肾炎;转化生长因子β1;小鼠狼疮性肾炎(lupus nephritis, LN)是系统性红斑狼疮(systemic lupus erythematosus, SLE)最多见的并发症,肾脏损害的程度是阻碍SLE预后的重要因素。

SLE的发病与多种因素有关,最近几年有研究报导以为环氧化酶2(COX2)也是重要的炎症性介质,炎症部位的前列腺素(prostaglandin, PG)的合成增多是COX2过度表达的结果,PG也是重要的炎症性介质,增多的PG本身又激起更多的炎症细胞聚积,加重局部的炎症反映,形成恶性循环。

环氧化酶
环氧化酶(Cyclooxygenase,COX)又称前列腺素内氧化酶还原酶,是一种双功能酶,具有环氧化酶和过氧化氢酶活性,是催化花生四烯酸转化为前列腺素的关键酶。

目前发现环氧化酶有两种COX-1和COX-2同工酶,前者为结构型,主要存在于血管、胃、肾等组织中,参与血管舒缩、血小板聚集、胃粘膜血流、胃黏液分泌及肾功能等的调节,其功能与保护胃肠黏膜、调节血小板聚集、调节外周血管的阻力和调节肾血流量分布有。

后者为诱导型,各种损伤性化学、物理和生物因子激活磷脂酶A2水解细胞膜磷脂,生成花生四烯酸,后者经COX-2催化加氧生成前列腺素。

COX-2的生物学性质
COX是花生四烯酸代谢过程中前列腺素(prostaglandins,PGs)合成的限速酶。

传统观念认为,COX 有两种结构亚型,即结构型COX-1和诱导型COX-2。

近期,COX的第三种同工酶——COX-3,在神经系统组织内被发现。

COX-1主要存在于正常的组织细胞中,催化产生维持正常生理功能的PGs。

COX-2是一种膜结合蛋白。

研究证实,在巨噬细胞、成纤维细胞、内皮细胞和单核细胞中COX-2均可被诱导表达。

生理状态下绝大部分组织细胞不表达COX-2;而在炎症、肿瘤等病理状态下受炎性刺激物、损伤、有丝分裂原和致癌物质等促炎介质诱导后,呈表达增高趋势,参与多种病理生理过程,具体是细胞膜磷脂通过磷脂酶A2途径被水解释放出花生四烯酸,在COX-2的催化下,合成前列腺素E2(PGE2),最后产生系列炎症介质,并通过瀑布式级联反应参与机体各生理、病理过程。

人类COX-2基因位于1号染色体q 25.2~q 25.3,长8.3 kb,含有10个外显子和9个内含子,编码604个氨基酸,含有17个氨基酸残基的信号肽。

COX-2与糖尿病
Pickup研究发现,炎症细胞因子、氧化应激等在2型糖尿病中具有重要作用,首次将2型糖尿病和亚临床炎症联系起来。

COX-2作为重要的炎症介质,参与糖尿病的发病机制以通过诱导合成PGs类衍生物来实现。

PGE2作为COX-2的产物之一,能抑制葡萄糖刺激胰岛素分泌,导致糖耐量减低。

COX-2抑制剂能增加β细胞胰岛素的合成,且呈剂量依赖形式。

同时,COX-2作为炎性反应的介质,能降低人体对胰岛素的敏感性。

相关动物实验显示,NOD小鼠和BALB/C小鼠进展为糖尿病前,COX-2仅仅表达于胰腺内分泌细胞,糖尿病时期主要表达于胰腺巨噬细胞和树突状细胞,并且COX-2和胰岛素在胰腺的不同细胞群中表达。

提示了COX-2病理表达会影响胰岛素分泌,并在胰岛β细胞的病理生理过程中发挥重要作用。

通过Heitmeier等的研究也证实,在1型糖尿病患者的胰岛细胞中,一些细胞因子如IL-1、IFN-γ、TNF-α通过诱导刺激COX-2表达,使PGE2合成增加,造成胰岛β细胞功能障碍和退化。

在高葡萄糖浓度的刺激下,1型和2型糖尿病患者的胰岛细胞、血管平滑肌细胞、内皮细胞及其离体培养的单核细胞中COX-2的表达均会增加。

表明高血糖的刺激或炎性因子诱导都能使COX-2异常表达,造成胰岛细胞损害。

COX-2与DN
DN作为糖尿病常见的微血管病变,又称肾小球硬化症。

COX-2主要在肾小球致密斑、皮质髓襻升支粗段、足细胞和肾髓质的间质细胞表达,与其他炎性介质共同参与肾小球和肾小管间质结构功能改变,在DN发生中起重要作用。
