Blockade of phosphodiesterase 4 with rolipram reduced the production of
tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-
, interleukin (IL)-5, IL-10, and IL-2
but poorly inhibited cell proliferation and interferon-
(IFN-
)
production by activated human T cells. Addition of dibutyryl cAMP mimicked rolipram inhibitions on proliferation, IL-2, TNF-
, and
IFN-
but not on IL-10 or IL-5 production. Moreover, the inhibitory effects of rolipram on proliferation, IFN-
, and TNF-
but not of
IL-10 production can be prevented by a specific protein kinase A
inhibitor. Rolipram and pentoxifylline, a nonspecific phosphodiesterase inhibitor, decreased transcription of IL-2 and TNF-
promoters in
transiently transfected normal T cells. Moreover, they inhibited the
activation of nuclear factor-
B (NF-
B) and nuclear factor of
activated T cells (NFAT) and stimulated activator protein-1 (AP-1) and
cAMP response element-binding proteins (CREBs). In contrast, dibutyryl
cAMP inhibited NF-
B but not NFAT activation. Thus, our data
indicate that blockade of phosphodiesterase 4 regulates transcription
of a particular cytokine through inhibition of NF-
B and NFAT, and
stimulation of AP-1 and CREB.
