B
was observed in Western blots with Jurkat
cells treated with 1 mM taurine chloramine (TauCl) for
1 h. TauCl treatment inhibited tumor necrosis factor
(TNF
)-initiated nuclear factor
B (NF-
B) activation. TauCl did
not inhibit either the upstream of I
B kinase (IKK) activation or IKK
itself but did inhibit NF-
B activation induced by IKK
overexpression. Deletion experiments showed that a TauCl modification
site causing the band shift of I
B
is Met45.
High performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry analyses
of a small peptide containing Met45 revealed that TauCl
oxidizes Met45. A mutant of I
B
whose
Met45 was converted to alanine did not generate a band
shift upon TauCl treatment and degraded in response to TNF
stimulation. However, a reporter assay revealed that
NF-
B-dependent luciferase expression was not fully
recovered in cells transfected with this mutant. These results indicate
that Met45 oxidation of I
B
is a molecular mechanism
underlying the TauCl-induced inhibition of NF-
B activation. A
similar band shift was observed when HL-60 cells expressing
myeloperoxidase were treated with 100 µM hydrogen
peroxide for 5 min. When rat neutrophils were incubated with bacteria,
intracellular taurine decreased interleukin-8 production. Therefore,
taurine may help suppress excessive inflammatory reaction in neutrophils.
