title: Stimulation of macrophage colony-stimulating factor synthesis by interleukin-1.
abstract: Interleukin-1 (IL-1), which plays an important role in the inflammatory response, was found to induce colony-stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) expression in the MIA PaCa-2 cells. IL-1-induced CSF-1 production was markedly suppressed (70%) by pertussis toxin. This inhibition by pertussis toxin was reversed by benzamide, an inhibitor of ADP-ribosylation reactions. Similarly, IL-1-induced CSF-1 production was inhibited by cholera toxin and this inhibition was reversed by an arginine analog, p-methoxy-benzylaminodecamethylene guanidine sulfate. Dibutyryl-cAMP as well as other cAMP elevating agents such as theophylline and forskolin also suppressed IL-1-induced CSF-1 production, suggesting that cAMP concentrations inversely regulate the biosynthesis of CSF-1. Measurement of cAMP concentration indicated that IL-1 treatment of MIA PaCa-2 cells did not change the cAMP level. IL-1-induced CSF-1 production was not suppressed by the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor, H7, under conditions in which 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate-induced CSF-1 production was completely abolished. These data suggest that IL-1-induced CSF-1 production is not mediated via the activation of PKC. Analysis of oncogene c-fos and c-jun expression has shown the enhancement of expression of both protooncogenes prior to CSF-1, suggesting that the expression of these two oncogenes may be the mechanism which triggers CSF-1 gene expression.
