Abstract:
UNLABELLED:Organ rejection and inflammation are accompanied by endothelial cell activation. An in vitro model with patient-specific endothelial cells was used to study the impact of mTOR inhibitors on cell growth and release of proinflammatory cytokines. MATERIAL AND METHODS:Confluent monolayers of human saphenous vein endothelial cells were pretreated with everolimus or sirolimus followed by induction with tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha). RESULTS:Incubation with sirolimus or everolimus resulted in a dose-dependent deceleration of cell growth. Compared to control, cell count at high concentrations ceased to increase and remained at 60%. This mitotic arrest was accompanied by a dose-dependent inhibition of the TNF-alpha-induced in situ synthesis and release of interleukin-6 per cell by 60%. CONCLUSIONS:Under conditions mimicking cytokine-induced cell activation a predominant inhibitory effect of everolimus compared to sirolimus on endothelial cell proliferation was observed paralleled by an inhibition of proinflammatory cytokines. This might attenuate the acute proinflammatory status after transplantation.
