Title:TheeffectofSurfactinonLipopolysaccharide-inducedsecretionofinflammatorycytokinesinmacrophages

Introduction:

Macrophagesplayacrucialroleintheinnateimmuneresponse,astheyareresponsibleforengulfinganddestroyinginvadingmicroorganisms.Lipopolysaccharide(LPS),acomponentoftheoutermembraneofgram-negativebacteria,isapotentactivatorofmacrophages,whichinducesthesecretionofvariousinflammatorycytokines,suchasinterleukin-6(IL-6),tumornecrosisfactor-alpha(TNF-α),andinterleukin-1beta(IL-1β).Excessivesecretionofthesecytokinescanleadtosystemicinflammatoryresponsesyndrome(SIRS)andsepsis,whichisalife-threateningcondition.

Surfactin,acycliclipopeptideproducedbyBacillussubtilis,hasbeenreportedtopossessvariousbiologicalactivities,includingantibacterial,antiviral,antitumor,andimmunomodulatoryeffects.However,itseffectonLPS-inducedsecretionofinflammatorycytokinesinmacrophagesremainsunclear.

Hypothesis:

WehypothesizethatSurfactincaninhibitLPS-inducedsecretionofinflammatorycytokinesinmacrophagesbymodulatingtheexpressionofkeysignalingmoleculesintheNF-κBpathway.

Objectives:

Theobjectivesofthisstudyare:

1.TodeterminetheeffectofSurfactinonLPS-inducedsecretionofIL-6,TNF-α,andIL-1βinmacrophages.

2.ToinvestigatethemechanismofSurfactinsactionontheNF-κBpathwayinmacrophages.

Methods:
