pubmed:abstractText |
Acute ethanol consumption has been linked to an increase in infectious complications in trauma and burn patients. Ethanol modifies production of a variety of macrophage-derived immunoregulatory mediators. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a potent stimulator of inflammatory responses in macrophages, activates several intracellular signaling pathways, including mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK). In the current study, we investigated the effect of acute ethanol exposure on in vivo activation of p38 and extracellularly regulated kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2) MAPK in murine macrophages and the corresponding, LPS-stimulated interleukin (IL)-6 production. We demonstrated that a single dose of ethanol transiently down-regulated p38 and ERK1/2 activation levels (3-24 h after treatment) and impaired IL-6 synthesis. Ethanol-related reduction in IL-6 production was not further affected by the presence of inhibitors of p38 and ERK1/2 (SB 202190 and PD 98059, respectively). These results demonstrate that acute ethanol exposure can impair macrophage IL-6 production and indicate that this effect may result from ethanol-induced alterations in intracellular signaling through p38 and ERK1/2.
