摘要
Modulation of locally produced corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) is a component of the cytokine network in human inflammatory arthritis. CRH signaling, through the CRH-receptor subtype R1alpha, may play a role in both vascular changes and pathologic mechanisms associated with joint inflammation. Furthermore, the peripheral actions of CRH may be mediated in part through the NURR subfamily of nuclear orphan receptors. The aim of this study was to establish the signaling mechanisms through which CRH receptor-mediated responses contribute to gene regulation in inflamed synovial vasculature. Immunohistochemical analysis of serial rheumatoid arthritis (RA) tissue sections demonstrates CRH and NURR1 expression in the synovial lining layer, subsynovial lining layer, and the vascular endothelium. The identical pattern of immunolocalization confirms that NURR1 is produced at the same synovial sites shown to produce CRH. The distribution of specific NURR1 staining on the synovial vasculature parallels that observed for CRHR1 expression. Using primary synovial I issue endothelial cells, we demonstrate that CRH induces specific CREB-1 and ATF-2 binding to the NURR1 promoter. We further provide evidence that CRH signaling can he mimicked by activation of cAMP/PKA/CREB using forskolin in primary human microvascular endothelial cells. These data indicate that the CRH receptor-dependent inflammatory response in synovial tissue endothelium is mediated through the cAMP/CREB signaling pathway.
