Abstract：
:Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) survives and proliferates within the main cells of the innate immune system, macrophages. The goal of our study was to investigate the immunostimulatory effects of 13-cis retinoic acid (RA) and chicoric acid (CA) in human U937 macrophages against H37Ra Mtb infection by evaluating its potential role in the cell surface expression of HLA-DR, CD14 molecules as well as nitric oxide (NO) production and prevention of the Mtb growth within macrophages. In this study, we investigated the effects of 13-cis RA and CA on Mtb-infected macrophages using flowcytometry and Griess methods, respectively. Moreover, inhibitory effect of 13-cis RA and CA on Mtb growth within macrophages were assessed using colony-forming unit. 13-Cis RA and CA enhanced the cell surface expression of HLA-DR and CD14 molecules on U937 macrophages and prevented the growth of Mtb within macrophages. In addition, 13-cis RA and CA, have increased NO generation compared to untreated control macrophages, significantly (p < 0.001). Both drugs have a significant inhibitory effect on Mtb growth but CA at the highest concentration was more potent than 13-cis RA (p < 0.05). The results of our study showed that infected U937 macrophages treated with 13-cis RA and CA represented significant increases in NO production, CD14 and HLA-DR expression and also prevents intracellular survival of Mtb. Therefore, 13-cis RA and CA may have a significant therapeutic approach in the control of Mtb infection.
