Lithium has been documented to regulate
apoptosis and apoptotic gene expression via NF- B and
mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase-dependent
mechanisms. Since both NF- B and MAP kinases are also important
mediators of inflammatory gene expression, we investigated the effect
of lithium on NF- B- and MAP kinase-mediated inflammatory gene
expression. Incubation of human intestinal epithelial cells with
lithium induced both enhanced NF- B DNA binding and NF- B-dependent transcriptional activity. In addition,
lithium stimulated activation of both the p38 and p42/44 MAP kinases. This lithium-induced up-regulation of NF- B and MAP kinase activation was associated with an enhancement of interleukin-8 mRNA
accumulation as well as an increase in interleukin-8 protein release.
These proinflammatory effects of lithium were, in large part, mediated by activation of Na+/H+ exchangers,
because selective blockade of Na+/H+ exchangers
prevented the lithium-induced intestinal cell inflammatory response.
These results demonstrate that lithium stimulates inflammatory gene
expression via NF- B and MAP kinase activation.
