| Abstract | Some macrolide antibiotics were reported to inhibit interleukin-6 (IL6) and prostaglandin-E2 (PGE(2)) production by bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulated J774A.1 cells. Macrolides are also known to accumulate in cells and some were proven inducers of phospholipidosis. In the present study, with a set of 18 mainly 14- and 15-membered macrolides, we have investigated whether these macrolide induced phenomena in J774A.1 cells are connected. In LPS-stimulated J774A.1 cells, the extent of inhibition of proinflammatory markers (IL6 and PGE(2)) by macrolides significantly correlated with their extent of accumulation in cells, as well as with the induction of phospholipidosis, and cytotoxic effects in prolonged culture (with correlation coefficients (R) ranging from 0.78 to 0.93). The effects observed were related to macrolide binding to phospholipids (CHI IAM), number of positively charged centres, and were inversely proportional to the number of hydrogen bond donors. Similar interdependence of effects was obtained with chloroquine and amiodarone, whereas for dexamethasone and indomethacin these effects were not linked. The observed macrolide induced phenomena in J774A.1 cells were reversible and elimination of the macrolides from the culture media prevented phospholipidosis and the development of cytotoxicity in long-term cultures. Based on comparison with known clinical data, we conclude that LPS-stimulated J774A.1 cells in presented experimental setup are not a representative cellular model for the evaluation of macrolide anti-inflammatory potential in clinical trials. Nevertheless, our study shows that, at least in in vitro models, binding to biological membranes may be the crucial factor of macrolide mechanism of action. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
