Alloantibodies substantially alter the in vitro nonspecific cytotoxic effect of macrophages on bystanding allogeneic and xenogeneic target cells. Although the specific IgM alloantibody increased significantly the ability to parental macrophages to damage target cells, IgG alloantibody had an opposite effect and suppressed the macrophage cytotoxicity. Macrophages of F1 hybrid mice were less affected by this treatment unless alloantibodies against both parental strains were added together. Parental macrophages exposed in vitro to the concomitant action of both IgM and IgG alloantibodies exhibited a diminished cytotoxicity toward target cells. It is proposed that IgM and IgG alloantibodies induce different conformational changes of the macrophage surface. 相似文献

Summary Although an outwardly rectifying K+-conductance has been described in murine peritoneal macrophages and a murine macrophage cell line, the expression of this conductance in human monocyte-derived macrophages (HMDMs) is rare. Whole-cell current recordings in this study were obtained from HMDMs differentiated in adherent culture for varying periods of time following isolation and compared to currents obtained in human alveolar macrophages (HAMs) obtained from bronchoalveolar lavage. These studies were undertaken to compare ionic current expression in the in vitro differentiated macrophage to that of a human tissue macrophage. HAMs are the major population of immune and inflammatory cells in the normal lung and are the most readily available source of human tissue macrophages. Of the 974 HMDMs in the study obtained from a total of 36 donors, we were able to observe the presence of the inactivating outward current (I
A
) which exhibited voltage-dependent availability in only 49 (or 5%) of the cells. In contrast, whole-cell current recordings from HAMs, revealed a significantly higher frequency ofI

in both cell types inactivated with a time course which was weakly voltage-dependent and which exhibited a time constant of recovery from inactivation of approximately 30 sec. The time course of current inactivation was dependent upon the external K+ concentration. An increase in the time constant describing current decay was observed in elevated K+. Current activation was half-maximal at approximately –18 mV in normal bathing solution. Steady-state inactivation was half-maximal at approximately –44 mV. The presence of the outwardly rectifying K+ conductance may alter the potential of the mononuclear phagocyte to respond to extracellular signals mediating chemotaxis, phagocytosis, and tumoricidal functions. 相似文献

A high percentage (80-90%) of immature thymocytes were engulfed by syngeneic thymus-derived macrophages (TDM phi) following cocultivation for 3 days. Elimination occurred via internalization of thymocytes by the macrophages. We unequivocally demonstrated the presence of many live thymocytes inside the TDM phi by means of specific staining. Mature PNA- thymocytes were phagocytized to a lower degree than immature thymocytes, and T splenocytes were not eliminated at all. Bone marrow-derived macrophages internalized immature thymocytes to a degree similar to TDM phi. Since thymocyte survival was not at all affected by M phi culture supernatants alone, we conclude that cell to cell contact is necessary for thymocyte elimination. To identify the surface molecules which participate in internalization of thymocytes by the macrophages, both cell types were pretreated with a variety of agents. Treatment of thymocytes with tunicamycin (N-glycosylation inhibitor) and anti-Lyt-2 mAb decreased their elimination by M phi. Similarly, treatment of M phi with neuraminidase, trypsin, and anti-Ia mAb markedly suppressed their capacity to engulf thymocytes. On the other hand, thymocyte elimination was unaffected by (1) cell cultivation in syngeneic serum rather than heterologous serum; (2) use of allogeneic rather than syngeneic thymocytes; and (3) use of X-irradiated M phi and LPS-activated M phi rather than nontreated M phi. 相似文献

Summary We examined the variability of occurrence and frequency of voltage-dependent whole-cell currents in human peripheral blood monocyte-derived macrophages (HMDM) maintained in culture for up to three weeks. An increase in cell capacitance from an average value of 9 pF on the day of isolation to 117 pF at 14 days accompanied growth and differentiation in culture. The average resting potential was approximately –34 mV for cells beyond two days in culture. Cells exhibited a voltage-and time-dependent outward current upon membrane depolarization above approximately –30 mV, which appeared to be composed of a number of separate currents with variable expression from donor to donor. Three of these currents are carried by K+. The frequency of each outward current type was calculated for 974 cells obtained from 36 donors. The HMDMs in these studies exhibited two 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) sensitive, time-dependent outward currents (I
A
andI
B
) that could be differentiated on the basis of the presence or absence of steady-state inactivation in the physiological potential range, time course of inactivation during maintained depolarization, as well as threshold of activation. The 4-AP-insensitive outward current activated at approximately 10 mV. One component of the 4-AP insensitive-outward current (I
C
) could be blocked by external TEA and by the exchange of internal Cs+ or Na+ for K+. The probability of observingI
B
andI
C
appeared to be donor dependent. Following total replacement of internal K+ with Cs+, two additional currents could be identified (i) a delayed component of outward current (I
D
) remained which could be blocked by low concentrations of external Zn2+ (4 m) and was insensitive to anion replacement in the external solution and (ii) a Cl– current with a reversal potential which shifted in the presence of external anion replacement and which was irreversibly inhibited by the stilbene SITS. The activation of a prominent time-independent inward currents was often observed with increasing hyperpolarization. This inward current was blocked by external Ba2+ and corresponded to the inwardly rectifying K+ current. Neither inward nor outward current expression appeared dependent on whether cells were differentiated in adherent or suspension culture nor was there demonstrable differential current expression observed upon transition from suspension to adherent form. 相似文献

The secretion of factor B by mouse peritoneal macrophages was found to be enhanced following in vivo or in vitro stimulation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The intravenous administration of LPS to mice of various strains caused an increased release of factor B but not the release of acid phosphatase by the peritoneal macrophages obtained from the stimulated mice. In vitro stimulation of cultured macrophages with LPS resulted in an enhanced secretion of both factor B and acid phosphatase. The dose-dependent augmentation of factor B secretion by LPS was found in the macrophages from LPS-responsive C3H/HeN mice, whereas the macrophages from LPS-unresponsive C3H/HeJ mice did not respond to either phenol-extracted LPS or butanol-extracted LPS. The ability of LPS to cause the enhancement of factor B secretion by macrophages was abolished by alkali or acid treatment of LPS, indicating that its lipid A part was responsible for the observed effect. 相似文献

A kinetic study of factor B secretion by particle-ingesting macrophages showed that the ingestion of zymosan but not latex lead to an early suppression of factor B secretion followed by a significant enhancement. This dual response was proportional to the number of ingested zymosans. After a suppressive period of 24-48 hr, the ingested zymosan stimulated the synthesis of factor B. The response of acid phosphatase synthesis to ingested zymosan was the same as that of factor B, while the synthesis of lactic dehydrogenase proceeded without an early suppression. These results suggest that factor B should be considered an enzyme released into the lysosomes of macrophages. 相似文献

Peritoneal exudate lymphocytes (PEL) from immune guinea pigs that adhere to antigen-pulsed macrophages (MO) were cultured for 1 week to yield a population enriched in antigen-specific (selected) T cells. These cells bind specifically within hours to fresh autologous antigen-pulsed MO. Thd dissociation of these selected PEL from antigen-pulsed MO was studied. No evidence was obtained that factors in the culture medium play a role in dissociation. Lymphocytes that have dissociated from antigen-pulsed MO are usually fully capable of rebinding to MO freshly pulsed with antigen, suggesting that there is no deficiency in the lymphocytes ability to bind. In contrast, readding antigen to cultures during incubation prevents the predicted dissociation. Moreover, repulsing MO cultured without selected PEL restores their capacity to bind fresh selected PEL. These findings indicate that decay of antigen associated with with MO is the major mechanism underlying the observed dissociation. 相似文献

Redox signaling in macrophages. 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18
Macrophages are phagocytic cells that produce and release reactive oxygen species (ROS) in response to phagocytosis or stimulation with various agents. The enzyme responsible for the production of superoxide and hydrogen peroxide is a multi-component NADPH oxidase that requires assembly at the plasma membrane to function as an oxidase. In addition to participating in bacterial killing, ROS, which have recently been shown to be produced enzymatically by non-phagocytic cells, have been implicated in inflammation and tissue injury. These toxic effects have been largely explored over the years and these studies have overshadowed initial observations supporting a role for ROS in modulating cellular function. In recent years, it has become increasingly evident that ROS can function as second messengers and, at low levels, can activate signaling pathways resulting in a broad array of physiological responses from cell proliferation to gene expression and apoptosis. Macrophages can also produce large amounts of nitric oxide (nitrogen monoxide, *NO). *NO was first identified as the endothelial-derived relaxing factor, EDRF and its role in the signaling pathway leading to its physiological effect was rapidly established. The ability of *NO to react with O(2)(*-) to produce peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)) was later recognized. As it is diffusion-limited, this reaction is more likely to occur in cells like macrophages that produce both ROS and RNS. In this review, we will summarize the current knowledge in redox signaling, and describe more specifically studies that are particular to macrophages. 相似文献

Complement proteins and macrophages. 1. Quantitative estimation of factor B produced by mouse peritoneal macrophages 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Cobra venom factor was used for the detection of factor B synthesized by mouse peritoneal macrophages. This method was shown to be specific for factor B assay by neutralization by antimouse factor B antibody. The amount of factor B in the culture supernatant, assessed by this method, was found to be dependent on the medium used for cultivation of macrophages. The addition of 25% L cell-conditioned medium to minimal essential medium (LCM-MEM) enhanced the production of factor B and also of lysozyme. Kinetic analysis in LCM-MEM showed that factor B produced by 6 x 10(4) cells/cm2 increased up to 72 hr and reached a plateau at 96 hr. The amounts of factor B and lysozyme produced in LCM-MEM depended upon the number of macrophages. Production of factor B was completely inhibited by 1 microgram of cycloheximide per ml and was restored by its removal. 相似文献

Complexes of labelled proteinases (subtilopeptidase A, trypsin) with serum alpha 1-macroglobulin or alpha 2-macroglobulin are rapidly taken up in vitro by rabbit alveolar macrophages and peritoneal macrophages but not by mixed rabbit peripheral blood leukocytes. Enzyme, not bound to alpha 1- or alpha 2-macroglobulin, does not become associated with alveolar macrophages. Chemically inactivated subtilopeptidase A does not bind to alpha 1- or alpha 2-macroglobulin; chemically inactivated subtilopeptidase A in mixtures with alpha 1 - or alpha 2-microglobulin, does not interact with alveolar macrophages. Blocking experiments confirmed that the interaction of proteinase with alveolar macrophages is complex specific; uptake of labelled complex was prevented by the simultaneous addition of macroglobulin complexes formed with non-labelled subtilopeptidase A, subtilopeptidase B, trypsin or chymotrypsin but not by macroglobulin alone. The findings demonstrate a complex-specific interaction between proteinase-alpha-macroglobulin complexes and macrophages. 相似文献

We studied the expression of glutamine synthetase in liver macrophages (Kupffer cells, KCs) in situ and in culture. Glutamine synthetase was detectable at the mRNA and protein level in freshly isolated and short-term-cultured rat liver macrophages. Enzyme activity and protein content were about 9% of that in liver parenchymal cells. In contrast, glutamine synthetase mRNA levels in liver macrophages apparently exceeded those in parenchymal liver cells (PCs). By use of confocal laser scanning microscopy and specific macrophage markers, immunoreactive glutamine synthetase was localized to macrophages in normal rat liver and normal human liver in situ. All liver macrophages stained positive for glutamine synthetase. In addition, macrophages in rat pancreas contained immunoreactive glutamine synthetase, whereas glutamine synthetase was not detectable at the mRNA and protein level in blood monocytes and RAW 264.7 mouse macrophages. No significant amounts of glutamine synthetase were found in isolated rat liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (SECs). The data suggest a constitutive expression of glutamine synthetase not only, as previously believed, in perivenous liver parenchymal cells but also in resident liver macrophages. 相似文献

Membrane-associated tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and soluble TNF were compared as to their lytic activities, and as to the kinetics of their expression by macrophages activated with LPS and/or IFN-gamma in the presence or absence of cycloheximide. EL 4 tumor cells, resistant and sensitive to lysis by recombinant TNF or membrane-associated TNF (paraformaldehyde (PF)-fixed activated macrophages) were used as targets. In the presence of cycloheximide the TNF-resistant S-EL4 cells were lysed by both TNFs. PF-fixed macrophages was cytolytic after 1 hr activation but not after 3 or more hours of activation. Their activity was totally inhibited by anti-TNF antibodies and was a composite of transmembrane (integral) TNF and soluble TNF conjugated to macrophage membrane TNF receptors. Treatment of the macrophages with glycine pH 3.0 buffer dissociated the conjugated TNF without affecting the integral membrane TNF. When macrophages were activated with LPS +/- IFN-gamma in the presence of cycloheximide or activated just with IFN-gamma their activity after fixation with paraformaldehyde was no longer detected. Nonfixed macrophages under these conditions still remained cytotoxic. Tumor cell susceptibility to membrane-associated TNF activity, in contrast to recombinant (soluble) TNF, was greatly reduced in the presence of nicotinamide, an inhibitor of ADP-ribosyltransferase, suggesting that the mechanisms of lysis by these TNFs may be different. The lytic activity of both TNFs was found to be receptor-dependent in that tumor cells, whose TNF binding sites were "down-regulated" by TPA, were rendered resistant to lysis by both membrane-associated and soluble TNFs. 相似文献

Monocytes were isolated from peripheral blood and cultured in vitro for more than 3 weeks in glass chamber slides. Phenotypically and ultrastructurally these nonadherent macrophages (NAM) appear similar to connective tissue resident macrophages. They constitutively secrete a high amount of IL-1ra and little or no IL-1 alpha or IL-1 beta. When exposed to GM-CSF, IL-2, or IFN-gamma for 24 hr, NAM become adherent and undergo dramatic morphological changes. Cytokines treatment primes NAM for increased LPS-mediated TNF production and these GM-CSF- and LPS-treated NAM are cytotoxic to WEHI 164, a TNF-sensitive target. Morphological changes and TNF production are both inhibited by antimetabolites and a variety of antineoplastic drugs. Although morphology inhibition is reversible under certain circumstances, inhibition of TNF synthesis is irreversible. These findings suggest that cytokines might play a role in differentiation and maturation of long-term cultured monocytes. Furthermore, the effects of antimetabolites and antineoplastic drugs on arresting the differentiation processes may significantly impair antitumor functions of macrophages. 相似文献

Unstimulated peritoneal macrophages grown in vitro for 5 days do not incorporate thymidine. Sarcoma (AA) cells introduced to the culture on the fifth day die and disintegrate whereas the macrophages become markedly stimulated and autoradiography shows that they are triggered to synthesize DNA. In syngeneic cocultures up to 28% of the macrophages incorporate thymidine after 5 days of coculture. 相似文献

Effect of C-reactive protein on peritoneal macrophages. I. Human C-reactive protein inhibits migration of guinea pig peritoneal macrophages 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effect of human C-reactive protein (CRP) isolated and purified from pooled patients' sera on macrophage function, especially on macrophage migration, was studied. Peritoneal exudate cells (PEC) from guinea pigs were used for macrophage migration inhibition (MMI) test of capillary method. Migration of either PEC or adherent purified macrophages exposed to CRP were inhibited dose-dependently. These findings indicate that CRP inhibits macrophage migration directly, not via activation of lymphocytes contained in PEC. As control, we examined the effect of normal human serum, anti C-polysaccharide antibodies isolated from patients' sera, and free endotoxin at the dose contaminated in CRP preparation on macrophage migration and found that none of them were effective. The effect of CRP on MMI of sensitized PEC exposed to antigen was also studied. Large amounts of CRP inhibited MMI induced by antigen, indicating the possibility that CRP may act on macrophages competitively with migration inhibitory factor (MIF) and may modulate MMI. CRP possesses MIF-like activity and may play a functional role at the site of tissue injury by causing the accumulation of macrophages. 相似文献

Supernatants of blood lymphocytes from immunized guinea pigs after incubation with purified protein derivative (PPD) were fractionated on Sephadex G-75. The fractions were tested for activity to change the electrophoretic mobility of macrophages. Dependent on incubation time, three different regions of activity with an average molecular weight of 13 000, 40 000 and more than 100 000 were estimated. 相似文献

Theiler's virus, a murine picornavirus, causes a persistent infection of the central nervous system with chronic inflammation and primary demyelination. We examined the nature of infected cells at different times postinoculation (p.i.) with a combined immunocytochemistry-in situ hybridization assay. The virus was found in the gray matter of the brain, mostly in neurons, during the first week p.i. During the following weeks, the virus was present in the spinal cord, first in the gray and white matter, then exclusively in the white matter. Approximately 10% of infected cells were astrocytes at any time during the study. Infected oligodendrocytes were first noticed on day 14 p.i. and amounted to approximately 6% of infected cells. The number of infected macrophages increased with time and reached a plateau by day 21 p.i., when at least 45% of infected cells were macrophages. The role of blood-borne macrophages during infection was studied by depleting them with mannosylated liposomes containing dichloromethylene diphosphonate. The virus did not persist in the majority of the mice treated with liposomes. These mice showed only minimal mononuclear cell infiltration and no demyelination. 相似文献
