Monocytes can have important effects on the polarization and expansion of lymphocytes and may contribute to shaping primary and memory T-cell responses in humans and mice. However, their precise contribution in terms of cellular subsets and the molecular mechanisms involved remains to be determined. Mouse monocytes originate from a bone marrow progenitor, the macrophage and DC precursor (MDP), which also gives rise to conventional dendritic cells through a separate differentiation pathway. Mouse monocytes may be grouped in different functional subsets. The CD115(+) Gr1(+) 'inflammatory' monocyte subset can give rise not only to immunostimulatory 'TipDCs' in infected mice but also to immunosuppressive 'myeloid-derived suppressor cells' in tumor-bearing mice. CD115(+) Gr1(+) monocytes can also contribute to the renewal of several resident subsets of macrophages and DCs, such as microglia and Langerhans cells, in inflammatory conditions. The CD115(+) Gr1(-) 'resident' monocyte subset patrols blood vessels in the steady state and extravasates during infection with Listeria monocytogenes or in the healing myocardium. CD115(+) Gr1(-) monocytes are responsible for an early and transient inflammatory burst during Lm infection, which may play a role in the recruitment of other effector cells and subsequently differentiate toward 'M2'-like macrophages that may be involved in wound healing. More research will no doubt confirm the existence of more functional subsets, the developmental relationship between mouse subsets as well as the correspondence between mouse subsets and human subsets of monocytes. We will discuss here the potential roles of monocytes in the immune response, the existence of functional subsets and their relationship with other myeloid cells, including dendritic cells.  相似文献

Programmed cell death-4 (PDCD4) is a recently discovered tumor suppressor protein that inhibits protein synthesis by suppression of translation initiation. We investigated the role and the regulation of PDCD4 in the terminal differentiation of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells. Expression of PDCD4 was markedly up-regulated during all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA)-induced granulocytic differentiation in NB4 and HL60 AML cell lines and in primary human promyelocytic leukemia (AML-M3) and CD34(+) hematopoietic progenitor cells but not in differentiation-resistant NB4.R1 and HL60R cells. Induction of PDCD4 expression was associated with nuclear translocation of PDCD4 in NB4 cells undergoing granulocytic differentiation but not in NB4.R1 cells. Other granulocytic differentiation inducers such as DMSO and arsenic trioxide also induced PDCD4 expression in NB4 cells. In contrast, PDCD4 was not up-regulated during monocytic/macrophagic differentiation induced by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 or 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate in NB4 cells or by ATRA in THP1 myelomonoblastic cells. Knockdown of PDCD4 by RNA interference (siRNA) inhibited ATRA-induced granulocytic differentiation and reduced expression of key proteins known to be regulated by ATRA, including p27(Kip1) and DAP5/p97, and induced c-myc and Wilms' tumor 1, but did not alter expression of c-jun, p21(Waf1/Cip1), and tissue transglutaminase (TG2). Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway was found to regulate PDCD4 expression because inhibition of PI3K by LY294002 and wortmannin or of mTOR by rapamycin induced PDCD4 protein and mRNA expression. In conclusion, our data suggest that PDCD4 expression contributes to ATRA-induced granulocytic but not monocytic/macrophagic differentiation. The PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway constitutively represses PDCD4 expression in AML, and ATRA induces PDCD4 through inhibition of this pathway.  相似文献

Molecular changes involved in cell differentiation are only partially known. Circulating inflammatory cells need to differentiate to perform specialized functions in target tissues. Here, we hypothesized that low‐density lipoprotein receptor–related protein 5 (LRP5) is involved, through its participation in the canonical Wnt/β‐catenin signalling, in the differentiation process of monocytic cells. To this aim, we characterized differentiation mechanisms of HL60 cells and primary human monocytes. We show that silencing the LRP5 gene increased differentiation of HL60 cells and human monocytes, suggesting that LRP5 signalling abrogates differentiation. We demonstrate that the mechanisms behind this blockade include sequestration of β‐catenin at the cellular membrane, inhibition of the Wnt signalling and increase of apoptosis. We further demonstrate the involvement of LRP5 and the Wnt/β‐catenin signalling in the process because cellular differentiation can be rescued by the addition of downstream Wnt target genes to the monocytic cells.  相似文献

Changes in the relative abundances of c-myc mRNA have been related to changes in other parameters of differentiation (histochemical, clonogenic) during the course of the differentiation of HL60 cells to monocytes/macrophages or to granulocytes. Induction of differentiation to monocytes/macrophages was marked by a rapid rate of appearance of committed cells (80 to 90% in 24 hours) and a concomitant rapid loss of c-myc mRNA. Induction of granulocytic differentiation resulted in a much slower rate of appearance of committed cells (50% in 48 hours), and a much faster rate of loss of c-myc mRNA (tenfold in 1 hour). These data are consistent with there being a direct link between down-regulation of the expression of c-myc and the onset of proliferation arrest and monocytic differentiation, but show there is no such association of c-myc mRNA abundance and proliferation or differentiation during the maturation of HL60 granulocytes.  相似文献

Highly purified T lymphocytes do not proliferate in response to mitogens, unless adherent HLA-DR-positive monocytes are added to the culture. This accessory function (AF) of monocytes requires the release of interleukin 1 (IL 1). Cells from three human leukemic cell lines, K562, HL60, and U937, could very efficiently replace monocytes in a 72-hr mitogen-induced T cell proliferation assay. The AF was clearly related to precise maturational stages of these cells; the hematopoietic precursor K562 cells spontaneously exerted high AF, but lost this property when treated with differentiation inducers. On the contrary, the promyelocytic HL60 cells and the "histiocytic" U937 cells exhibited no spontaneous AF, but acquired this property when induced to differentiate along the granulocytic and/or monocytic pathway. Three leukemic cells could not only stimulate T cells to proliferate and produce IL 2 in the presence of mitogens, but also under appropriate culture conditions these cells could produce IL 1, which could not be distinguished from normal human monocyte derived IL 1 by gel filtration and isoelectric focusing. Moreover, analysis of phenotypic markers revealed that AF and production of IL 1 could be demonstrated in different cell types and therefore are not restricted to the monocytic lineage. No HLA-DR antigen could be detected on K562 and HL60 cells. Thus, the expression of the DR antigens is not required for AF and IL 1 production in response to mitogens. These three human leukemic cell lines will provide convenient sources of human IL 1.  相似文献

Background

Granulocytes and monocytes/macrophages differentiate from common myeloid progenitor cells. Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and CD137 (4-1BB, TNFRSF9) are growth and differentiation factors that induce granulocyte and macrophage survival and differentiation, respectively. This study describes the influence of G-CSF and recombinant CD137-Fc protein on myelopoiesis.

Methodology/Principal Findings

Both, G-CSF and CD137 protein support proliferation and survival of murine bone marrow cells. G-CSF enhances granulocyte numbers while CD137 protein enhances macrophage numbers. Both growth factors together give rise to more cells than each factor alone. Titration of G-CSF and CD137 protein dose-dependently changes the granulocyte/macrophage ratio in bone marrow cells. Both factors individually induce proliferation of hematopoietic progenitor cells (lin-, c-kit+) and differentiation to granulocytes and macrophages, respectively. The combination of G-CSF and CD137 protein further increases proliferation, and results in a higher number of macrophages than CD137 protein alone, and a lower number of granulocytes than G-CSF alone demonstrating that CD137 protein-induced monocytic differentiation is dominant over G-CSF-induced granulocytic differentiation. CD137 protein induces monocytic differentiation even in early hematopoietic progenitor cells, the common myeloid progenitors and the granulocyte macrophage progenitors.

Conclusions/Significance

This study confirms earlier data on the regulation of myelopoiesis by CD137 receptor - ligand interaction, and extends them by demonstrating the restriction of this growth promoting influence to the monocytic lineage.  相似文献

Anterior Chamber-Associated Immune Deviation (ACAID) induced by an intracameral injection of antigen generates antigen-specific regulatory splenic T cells that suppress specifically cell-mediated immunity specific for the injected antigen. Circulating F4/80(+) cells recovered from mice receiving an intracameral injection of antigen are thought to be ocular in origin and induce the development of thymic and splenic regulatory T cells. We have shown previously that after the intracameral injection of antigen there is a CCR2/CCL2-dependent infiltration of circulating F4/80(+) cells into the anterior chamber associated with the generation of circulating, ACAID-inducing F4/80(+) monocytes. Here we tested the hypothesis that the intracameral injection of antigen induces events in the anterior chamber that are associated with the induction of circulating immunoregulatory monocytes that induce the suppression of cell-mediated immunity. The intracameral injection of antigen resulted in aqueous humor (i) a time- dependent increase of CCL2 and CCL7, (ii) a transient increase in TNF-α, and (iii) an infiltration of CD11b(hi), Gr1(hi) and F4/80(+) as well as F4/80(-) and Gr1(hi) peripheral blood cells into the anterior chamber. Further characterization of these F4/80(+) cells revealed that they are Ly 6C(hi), LY6G(lo) or negative, 7/4 (LY6B)(hi), CD115(+), CD45(+), CD49B(+), and CD62 L(+). Antibody-mediated neutralization of TGF-β in situ in the anterior chamber prevented the induction of circulating, ACAID-inducing monocytes and ACAID. These cells did not increase in the irides of ACAID-refractory CCR2-/- and CCL2-/- mice that received an intracameral injection of antigen. Our results extend our suggestion that ACAID is initiated as the result of a mild proinflammatory response to intracameral injection that results in the infiltration of a CCR2(+) subset of monocytes into the anterior chamber where there is a TGF-β-dependent induction of an immunosuppressive phenotype in the infiltrated monocytes that recirculate to induce antigen-specific regulatory T cells.  相似文献

Polyphenol extract from barley bran (BPE) induced nitro blue tetrazolium (NBT) reducing activity and alpha-naphthyl butyrate esterase activity in HL60 human myeloid leukemia cells. Because BPE induced the biochemical markers of HL60 cell differentiation, we investigated the effects of proanthocyanidins isolated from BPE on the HL60 cell differentiation of HL60 cells. Prodelphinidin B-3, T1, T2, and T3 induced 26-40% NBT-positive cells and 22-32% alpha-naphthyl butyrate esterase-positive cells. Proanthocyanidins potentiated retinoic acid (all-trans-retinoic acid)-induced granulocytic and sodium butyrate-induced monocytic differentiation in HL60 cells.  相似文献

Evi9, a common site of retroviral integration in BXH2 murine myeloid leukemias, encodes a C2H2 zinc finger protein and is overexpressed in these leukemic cells. To investigate a possible role of EVI9 in the human hematopoietic system, we isolated the cDNA clone of the human homologue. Human EVI9, located on the chromosome 2p13 region, contains an open reading frame of 797 amino acids that is 98.7% identical to the mouse protein. RT-PCR analysis of purified human hematopoietic cells showed that EVI9 is expressed in CD34-positive myeloid precursors, B cells, monocytes, and megakaryocytes, but only weakly in T lymphocytes, suggesting that EVI9 may play an important role in hematopoiesis. Furthermore, EVI9 was down-regulated during myeloid differentiation of HL60 cells induced by all-trans-retinoic acid, whereas the expression remained during monocytic differentiation induced by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. These results indicate a distinct role for EVI9 in human hematopoietic cells and suggest that EVI9 may cause leukemia through inhibition of myeloid differentiation.  相似文献

Caseins are major constituents of mammalian milks that are thought to be exclusively expressed in mammary glands and to function primarily as a protein source, as well as to ameliorate intestinal calcium uptake. In addition, proinflammatory and immunomodulatory properties have been reported for bovine caseins. Our aim was to investigate whether human casein α s1 (CSN1S1) is expressed outside the mammary gland and possesses immunomodulatory functions in humans as well. For this purpose, CSN1S1 mRNA was detected in primary human monocytes and CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells, but not in CD19(+) B cells. CSN1S1 protein was traceable in supernatants of cultured primary human CD14(+) monocytes by ELISA. Similarly, CSN1S1 mRNA and protein were detected in the human monocytic cell lines HL60, U937, and THP1 but not in Mono Mac 6 cells. Moreover, permeabilized human monocytes and HL60 cells could be stained by immunofluorescence, indicating intracellular expression. Recombinant human CSN1S1 was bound to the surface of Mono Mac 6 cells and upregulated the expression of GM-CSF mRNA in primary human monocytes and Mono Mac 6 cells in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. A similar increase in GM-CSF protein was found in the culture supernatants. CSN1S1-dependent upregulation of GM-CSF was specifically blocked by the addition of the p38 MAPK inhibitor ML3403. Our results indicated that human CSN1S1 may possess an immunomodulatory role beyond its nutritional function in milk. It is expressed in human monocytes and stimulates the expression of the proinflammatory cytokine GM-CSF.  相似文献

The peritoneal macrophage (Mphi) is the site of greatest 12/15-lipoxygenase (12/15-LOX) expression in the mouse; however, its immunoregulatory role in this tissue has not been explored. Herein, we show that 12/15-LOX is expressed by 95% of resident peritoneal CD11b(high) cells, with the remaining 5% being 12/15-LOX(-). 12/15-LOX(+) cells are phenotypically defined by high F4/80, SR-A, and Siglec1 expression, and enhanced IL-10 and G-CSF generation. In contrast, 12/15-LOX(-) cells are a dendritic cell population. Resident peritoneal Mphi numbers were significantly increased in 12/15-LOX(-/-) mice, suggesting alterations in migratory trafficking or cell differentiation in vivo. In vitro, Mphi from 12/15-LOX(-/-) mice exhibit multiple abnormalities in the regulation of cytokine/growth factor production both basally and after stimulation with Staphylococcus epidermidis cell-free supernatant. Resident adherent cells from 12/15-LOX(-/-) mice generate more IL-1, IL-3, GM-CSF, and IL-17, but less CCL5/RANTES than do cells from wild-type mice, while Staphylococcus epidermidis cell-free supernatant-elicited 12/15-LOX(-/-) adherent cells release less IL-12p40, IL-12p70, and RANTES, but more GM-CSF. This indicates a selective effect of 12/15-LOX on peritoneal cell cytokine production. In acute sterile peritonitis, 12/15-LOX(+) cells and LOX products were cleared, then reappeared during the resolution phase. The peritoneal lavage of 12/15-LOX(-/-) mice showed elevated TGF-beta1, along with increased immigration of monocytes/Mphi, but decreases in several cytokines including RANTES/CCL5, MCP-1/CCL2, G-CSF, IL-12-p40, IL-17, and TNF-alpha. No changes in neutrophil or lymphocyte numbers were seen. In summary, endogenous 12/15-LOX defines the resident MPhi population and regulates both the recruitment of monocytes/Mphi and cytokine response to bacterial products in vivo.  相似文献

Activation of ERK1 and ERK2 protein kinases has been implicated in diverse cellular processes, including the control of cell proliferation and cell differentiation (Marshall [1995] Cell 80:179). In human myeloblastoid leukemia HL60 cells rapid (ca. 15 min) but transient activation of ERK1/2 has been reported following induction of macrophage/monocyte differentiation by phorbol esters, or by very high (10(-6) M) concentrations of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1,25D3), while retinoic acid-induced granulocytic differentiation was accompanied by sustained activation of ERK1/2. We report here that monocytic differentiation of HL60 cells induced by moderate (10(-9) to 10(-7) M) concentrations of 1,25D3 could be divided into at least two stages. In the first phase, which lasts 24-48 h, the cells continued in the normal cell cycle while expressing markers of monocytic phenotype, such as CD14. In the next phase the onset of G1 cell cycle block became apparent and expression of CD11b was prominent, indicating a more mature myeloid phenotype. The first phase was characterized by high levels of ERKs activated by phosphorylation, and these decreased as the cells entered the second phase, while the levels of p27/Kip1 increased at that time. Serum-starved or PD98059-treated HL60 cells had reduced growth rate and slower differentiation, but the G1 block also coincided with decreased levels of activated ERK1/2. The data suggest that the MEK/ERK pathway maintains cell proliferation during 1,25D3-induced monocytic differentiation of HL60 cells, but that ERK1/2 activity becomes suppressed during the later stages of differentiation, and the consequent G1 block leads to "terminal" differentiation.  相似文献

It is proposed that CCR2+ monocytes are specifically recruited to inflammatory sites, whereas CCR2- monocytes are recruited to normal tissue to become resident macrophages. Whether these subsets represent separate lineages, how differential trafficking is regulated and whether monocytes undergo further differentiation is uncertain. Using a mouse model of autoimmune uveoretinitis we examined monocyte trafficking to the inflamed retina in vivo. We show that bone marrow-derived CD11b+ F4/80- monocytes require 24 to 48 h within the circulation and lymphoid system before acquiring the CCR2+ phenotype and trafficking to the inflamed retina is enabled. This phenotype, and the capacity to traffic were lost by 72 h. Monocyte CCR2 expression followed a similar time course in normal mice indicating that differentiation to an inflammatory phenotype is a constitutive, time-limited property, independent of local inflammatory mediators. Phenotypic analysis of adoptively transferred cells indicated that circulating inflammatory monocytes also differentiate into CD11c+ and B220+ dendritic cells and F4/80+ tissue macrophages in vivo. Our data supports the hypothesis of continuous extravasation and progressive differentiation over time of inflammatory monocytes in the circulation rather than replication within the actively inflamed tissue, and supports the concept of myeloid dendritic cell differentiation from trafficking monocytes under physiological conditions in vivo.  相似文献

The evidence for the promising potential for derivatives of Vitamin D (deltanoids) in the treatment of myeloid leukemias is increasing, but currently is not matched by the understanding of the precise mechanisms by which these anti-neoplastic effects are achieved. Unlike solid tumors in which growth retardation by deltanoids appears to result from inhibition of cell proliferation and the promotion of cell death by apoptosis, control of myeloid leukemia proliferation by deltanoids results from the induction of differentiation of the immature myelo-monocytic cells towards functional monocytic cells. We present here the accumulating evidence that a pathway that is initiated by deltanoid activation of Vitamin D receptor (VDR) and leads to monocytic differentiation of human myeloblastic HL60 cells, includes the MEK-ERK and JNK mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), their positive and negative regulators and a downstream effector C/EBPbeta. As in other cells, the abundance of VDR protein increases shortly after an exposure of HL60 cells to 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1alpha,25(OH)(2) D(3)). Other early events include a parallel upregulation of kinase suppressor of Ras (KSR-1) and the activation of the ERK MAPK pathway and data suggest that KSR-1 acts to amplify the signal provided by low concentrations of 1alpha,25(OH)(2) D(3). Maintenance of monocytic differentiation may be enhanced by JNK, but diminished by p38, MAPK signaling. Downstream, one of the targets of these pathways is C/EBPbeta, which can directly interact with the promoter for CD14, a gene characteristically expressed in monocytes. Importantly, in freshly obtained acute myeloid leukemia (AML)-M2 cells exposed to PRI-2191, a novel deltanoid with a modified side chain, upregulation of C/EBPbeta paralleled the induction of monocytic differentiation. These data provide a basis for the hypothesis that deltanoid-induced upregulation of C/EBPbeta bypasses the block to granulocytic differentiation in myeloid leukemia cells by redirecting the cells to monocytic differentiation.  相似文献
