PG - 2175-82 LID - 10.1007/s10529-012-1022-4 [doi] AB - The effect of T-5224, a selective inhibitor of c-Fos/activator protein (AP)-1, on lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced liver injury was examined in mice. Administration of LPS (10 mg kg(-1), i.p.) markedly increased serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha), high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), alanine aminotransferase/aspartate aminotransferase (ALT/AST), liver tissue levels of macrophage-inflammatory protein-1 alpha (MIP-1alpha) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), as well as hepatic necrosis and inflammation, leading to 67 % lethality. Administration of T-5224 (300 mg kg(-1), p.o.) after intraperitoneal injection of LPS imparted appreciable protection against acute elevations in serum levels of TNFalpha, HMGB1, ALT/AST as well as in liver tissue levels of MIP-1alpha and MCP-1, and reduced the lethality (27 %). These data indicate that T-5224 ameliorates liver injury and improves survival through decreasing production of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines in endotoxemic mice.
