摘要
Estrogen has been reported to inhibit neutrophil infiltration related inflammation and suppress neutrophils migration in vitro, but the underlying mechanism is not fully understood. By using HL-60 differentiated neutrophil-like cells (dHL-60) and human neutrophils, we examined the effect of 17-β estradiol (E2) on cell migration and superoxide production in response to chemotactic peptide N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP) and explored the mechanisms involved. We found that fMLP significantly induced dHL-60 cell and neutrophil migration and superoxide production, which was inhibited by ERK inhibitor PD98059. E2 significantly inhibited fMLP-induced dHL-60 cell and neutrophil migration and superoxide production at both physiological and pharmacological concentrations. Mechanistic studies showed that pretreatment of these cells with E2 rapidly elevated the protein level of mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase 2 (MKP-2) and inhibited fMLP-induced ERK phosphorylation. Pretreatment of these cells with estrogen receptor (ER) antagonist ICI 182780 reversed the inhibition of fMP-induced cell migration and superoxide production, and the induction of MKP-2 expression and the suppression of fMP-induced ERK phosphorylation by E2. However, pretreatment of cells with G-protein coupled ER antagonist G15 had no such effect. Collectively, these results demonstrate that fMLP stimulates neutrophil chemotaxis and superoxide production through activating ERK, and indicate that ER-mediated upregulation of MKP-2 may dephosphorylate ERK and contribute to the inhibitory effect of E2 on neutrophil activation by fMLP. Our study reveals new mechanisms involved in the anti-inflammatory activity of estrogen.
