Aldose reductase (AR; AKR1B1) a member of aldo-keto reductase super family, that we had shown earlier mediates cytotoxic signals induced by high glucose, cytokines and growth factors, also mediates the inflammatory signals induced by Gram-negative bacterial endotoxin, lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Inhibition of AR by three distinct AR inhibitors sorbinil, tolrestat or zopolrestat suppressed the LPS-induced production of inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-alpha, IL-6, IL-1 beta, IFN-gamma, and chemokine MCP-1 in murine peritoneal macrophages. Inhibition of AR also prevented the production of nitric oxide, and prostaglandin E2 and expression of iNOS and Cox-2 proteins. The LPS-induced DNA binding activity of NF-kappa B and AP1 were significantly inhibited by AR inhibitors, and this effect was mediated through the inhibition of phosphorylation of I kappa B-alpha, IKK alpha/beta and PKC. These results suggest the therapeutic use of AR inhibitors as anti-inflammatory drugs. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
