Background: The disturbance of immunological responses is a complication of diabetes mellitus. Methods and Results: We cultured Jurkat cells in 11.1 (normal) and 22.2 mmol/l (high) glucose for 12 weeks and stimulated them with 10 nmol/l phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and 500 nmol/l ionomycin. RTPCR revealed that induced interleukin (IL)-2 mRNA expression levels were suppressed in high glucose cultures compared to those in normal glucose. Promoter activities of IL-2, nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT), and activator protein-1 (AP-1), after 6 h stimulation with PMA and ionomycin, gradually decreased in high glucose cultures to approximately 20% of those in normal glucose at 12 weeks. The prolonged culture in high glucose increased inducible cAMP early repressor (ICER) II mRNA and protein levels, and overexpression of ICER II dose-dependently suppressed promoter activities of IL-2, NFAT, and AP-1. Moreover, ICER If mRNA expression was transiently induced by stimulation with PMA and ionomycin in normal glucose cultures: however, with high glucose, the induction disappeared. Conclusion: These results indicate that ICER II protein accumulates during prolonged culture in high glucose and suppresses IL-2 mRNA expression in Jurkat cells. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V.
