1 | We investigated whether glucosamine sulfate (GS) modulates the proinflammatory cytokine interleukin (IL)-1beta-induced expression and production of intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1, the mechanism responsible for this effect, and whether GS inhibits leukocyte adhesion to the monolayer of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells stimulated with various cytokines. | Glucosamine | intercellular adhesion molecule 1 | Homo sapiens |
2 | We investigated whether glucosamine sulfate (GS) modulates the proinflammatory cytokine interleukin (IL)-1beta-induced expression and production of intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1, the mechanism responsible for this effect, and whether GS inhibits leukocyte adhesion to the monolayer of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells stimulated with various cytokines. | Glucosamine | intercellular adhesion molecule 1 | Homo sapiens |
3 | We used flow cytometry and an ARPE-19 cell model to determine the effect of GS on the production of ICAM-1 in response to IL-1beta, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha plus IL-1beta, TNF-alpha plus IL-6, and TNF-alpha plus interferon (IFN)-gamma. | Glucosamine | intercellular adhesion molecule 1 | Homo sapiens |
4 | GS inhibits the expression of the ICAM-1 gene in ARPE-19 cells stimulated with IL-1beta by blocking NF-kappaB subunit p65 translocation and by partially preventing IkappaB degradation. | Glucosamine | intercellular adhesion molecule 1 | Homo sapiens |
5 | Our study demonstrates a potentially important property of GS in reducing ICAM-1-mediated inflammatory mechanisms in the eye. | Glucosamine | intercellular adhesion molecule 1 | Homo sapiens |
