Description Vibro cholerae, the etiological agent of cholera, colonizes the small intestine, produces an enterotoxin and causes acute inflammatory response at intestinal epithelial surface; the signals for such induction are still unknown. We determined the mRNA expression of proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines in Int407 cells following infection with V cholerae or its mutants by semi-quantitaive and quantitative real-time RT-PCR. V cholerae induces the coordinated expression and up-regulation of IL-1 alpha, IL-6, GM-CSF and MCP-1 and down-regulation of TGF-beta in Int407 cells. While the pathogenecity of V choterae was found to be a possible determinant in modulation of IL-1 alpha and TGF-beta, both IL-6 and MCP-1 OmpU might modulate induction. Significant reduction in IL-la, GM-CSF and MCP-1 mRNA expression was observed upon infection with the less motile and less adherent strain 0395YN. This association is supported by the absence of nuclear translocation of NF-kappa B (p50 subunit) upon infection with 0395YN in contrast to wild-type. Moreover, TPCK treatment prior to V cholerae infection indicated that proinflammatory cytokine gene expression in Int407 cells is NF-kappa B mediated. Thus, V cholerae induces proinflammatory cytokine response in Int407 cells, which is mediated by NF-kappa B and is modulated, in part, by adherence or motility of this organism.
