| Abstract: | Activated T cells are key players in chronic inflammatory diseases, including atherosclerosis. Salicylates, like aspirin, display not only anti-inflammatory, anti-thrombotic, anti-atherosclerotic activities, but also immunomodulatory effects in T cells at high dosages. Here, we aimed to identify potent immunomodulators for T cells through cell-based screening from a mini-library of 300 salicylate-based small molecules, and elucidate the mechanisms. Human peripheral blood T cells were isolated from buffy coat. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate plus ionomycin (P/I) was used to stimulate T cells. Cytokine production was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. T cell activation markers were determined by flow cytometry. The activation of transcription factors and kinases was analyzed by western blotting, electrophoretic mobility shift assay, or kinase assay. Through library screening, we identified a small molecule named HS-Cm [C13H9ClFNO2; N-(4-chloro-2-fluorophenyl)-2-hydroxybenzamide] that exhibited potent immunomodulatory effects on T cells with low cytotoxicity. In P/I-stimulated T cells, HS-Cm inhibited the production of interleukin-2, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and interferon-gamma and suppressed the expression of surface activation markers CD25, CD69, and CD71, but not CD45RO. HS-Cm down-regulated DNA-binding activities of activator protein-1 and nuclear factor-kappa B, but not nuclear factor of activated T-cells, through inhibiting c-Jun N-terminal kinase/p38 and inhibitor of kappaB alpha (IkappaBalpha) kinase (IKK)/IkappaBalpha pathways, respectively. On the basis of structure-activity relationship, HS-Cm exerted considerable inhibition of dipeptidyl-peptidase IV/CD26 activity in T cells. Our results suggested that the small molecule HS-Cm exhibiting immunomodulatory effects on T cells may be useful for therapeutics in chronic inflammatory diseases, like atherosclerosis, diabetes and autoimmune arthritis. |
