摘要
Abstract Tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α) is a pleiotropic cytokine produced by activated macrophages. IL‐6 is a multifunctional cytokine that plays a central role in both innate and acquired immune responses. We investigated the signaling pathway involved in IL‐6 production stimulated by TNF‐α in cultured myoblasts. TNF‐α caused concentration‐dependent increases in IL‐6 production. TNF‐α‐mediated IL‐6 production was attenuated by focal adhesion kinase (FAK) mutant and siRNA. Pretreatment with phosphatidylinositol 3‐kinase inhibitor (PI3K; Ly294002 and wortmannin), Akt inhibitor, NF‐κB inhibitor (pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate, PDTC), and IκB protease inhibitor ( L ‐1‐tosylamido‐2‐phenyl phenylethyl chloromethyl ketone, TPCK) also inhibited the potentiating action of TNF‐α. TNF‐α increased the FAK, PI3K, and Akt phosphorylation. Stimulation of myoblasts with TNF‐α activated IκB kinase α/β (IKKα/β), IκBα phosphorylation, p65 phosphorylation, and κB‐luciferase activity. TNF‐α mediated an increase of κB‐luciferase activity which was inhibited by Ly294002, wortmannin, Akt inhibitor, PDTC and TPCK or FAK, PI3K, and Akt mutant. Our results suggest that TNF‐α increased IL‐6 production in myoblasts via the FAK/PI3K/Akt and NF‐κB signaling pathway. J. Cell. Physiol. 223: 389–396, 2010. © 2010 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
