异质性荧光染色的巨噬细胞功能研究──Ⅱ．异质性荧光染色的巨噬细胞过氧化物酶活性

细胞化学研究文献报导,巨噬细胞中过氧化物酶的活性有明显的差异,只有部分巨噬细胞过氧化物酶呈阳性反应。本文用淀粉、白喉类毒素和卡介苗分别诱导和活化小鼠腹腔巨噬细胞,进行过氧化物酶反应,并以７６９０－Ｘｕ荧光染液复染后证明,酶反应阳性细胞呈蓝色荧光,而酶反应阴性细胞为淡蓝绿色和黄色荧光。实验表明,过氧化物酶阳性的巨噬细胞是分化程度低的幼稚细胞,因此,过氧化物酶的活性可作为低分化的巨噬细胞的一种标志酶。同时,本文用免疫荧光单克隆抗体间接染色法观察了三种物质诱导和活化的异质性荧光染色的巨噬细胞的分泌功能。

Poly(I):poly(C)-enhanced alveolar and peritoneal macrophage phagocytosis: quantification by a new method utilizing fluorescent beads

Phagocytosis is an important immune function to quantify. This immune response may be modulated by exposure to biological response modifiers or by exposure to pollutants. A new technique for quantifying nonspecific phagocytosis of alveolar and peritoneal macrophages in the same animal has been developed that utilizes fluorescent polystyrene beads. When incorporated into inhalation studies, this technique can be used to determine whether the toxic effect of an inhaled pollutant is local (effect on alveolar macrophages), systemic (effect on peritoneal macrophages), or both local and systemic. This method results in a determination of both the level of phagocytosis (the percentage of phagocytic macrophages) and the macrophage specific activity (the number of beads phagocytized per macrophage). This method also allows a determination of adherence by quantifying the number of particles in contact with, but not phagocytized by, the macrophage. Macrophage preparations were incubated with fluorescent beads for 2 hr and cyto-centrifuged onto a glass slide. Fluorescent beads present on the slide or cell-associated but not ingested by phagocytosis were removed by immersing the slide containing the macrophage preparation in methylene chloride for 15-30 sec. Fluorescent beads ingested by phagocytosis were then easily quantified with a fluorescence microscope. This technique was used to assess the baseline levels of phagocytosis for rat alveolar and peritoneal macrophages from the same animal and the kinetics and level of enhanced phagocytosis for alveolar and peritoneal macrophages after injection with the interferon inducer polyinosinate-polycytidylate (poly(I):poly(C)). The kinetics of enhanced alveolar and peritoneal macrophage phagocytosis by poly(I):poly(C) were similar; however, stimulated phagocytic levels of peritoneal macrophages never reached the phagocytic activity observed for the resident, highly phagocytic alveolar macrophages. This elevated phagocytic activity is most likely due to interferon stimulated by particulate matter in the large volume of air processed by the lungs and is important for host defense against a number of different inhaled microorganisms.     

子宫内膜异位症小鼠腹腔巨噬细胞吞噬功能的变化规律

目的研究子宫内膜异位症发生进程中腹腔巨噬细胞吞噬功能的变化规律。方法构造小鼠子宫内膜异位症模型,用流式细胞术检测造模前后腹腔巨噬细胞吞噬荧光微球数,计算吞噬率和吞噬指数代表巨噬细胞的吞噬能力。结果巨噬细胞吞噬率和吞噬指数分别为：未造模组[（10．1±0．82）％,0．17±0．01]、造模后第1d[（32．78±2．43）％,0．60±0．02]、第2d[（33．82±1．23）％,0．61±0．02]、第3d[（35．93±2．81）％,0．72±0．03]、第4d[（27．92±1．24）％,0．51±0．03]、第5d[（24．34±0．91）％,0．40±0．02]、第6d[（17．91±1．03）％,0．28±0．01]、第9d[（17．56±0．80）％,0．26±0．01I、第12d[（19．42±1．02）％,0．36±0．01]、第15d[（26．78±2．05）％,0．54±0．02]、第18d[（27．46±1．61）％,0．50±0．02]、第21d[（25．99±2．31）％,0．54±0．03]。造模后的小鼠腹腔巨噬细胞吞噬能力均显著高于未造模组,且呈现出三个阶段的改变：第1—5d为第1阶段,第6-12d为第2阶段,第15—21d为第3阶段,第1和第3阶段显著高于第2阶段（P〈0．01）。结论 子宫内膜异位症小鼠腹腔巨噬细胞的吞噬功能增强,且随时间呈现规律性变化特征,可能与子宫内膜的清除和异位存活有关。

The Inhibitory Effect of Staphylococcus epidermidis Slime on the Phagocytosis of Murine Peritoneal Macrophages Is Interferon-Independent

The extracellular slime produced by Staphylococcus epidermidis has been shown to interfere with several human neutrophil functions in vitro, such as chemotaxis, degranulation and phagocytosis. Slime production has been suggested as a useful marker for clinically significant infections with coagulase-negative Staphylococcus. Since the main role of macrophages in defense mechanisms is phagocytosis, the effect of slime on the phagocytic activity of macrophages was investigated. The phagocytic activity of murine peritoneal macrophages treated with slime in vitro decreased in a dose-dependent fashion. A similar decrease was also observed in macrophages isolated from mice that had previously received intraperitoneal injection of slime. To investigate whether interferon also plays a role in this process, mice were treated with interferon or an interferon inducer, polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (poly I:C), together with slime before macrophage isolation. The slime-suppressed phagocytic activity of macrophages was partially relieved by both agents, and the recovery effect of poly I:C in slime-suppressed phagocytosis of macrophages in vivo might be attributed to the increased interferon level in peritoneal fluid and sera. However, when slime was given to poly I:C-pretreated mice, the phagocytic activity remained suppressed. Thus, it appears that slime is able to suppress the phagocytic activity of macrophages regardless of the state of macrophage activation by poly I:C. The results suggest that the inhibition of phagocytosis by S. epidermidis slime may be independent from the activation of interferon.     

Plasticity of Human THP–1 Cell Phagocytic Activity during Macrophagic Differentiation

Studies of the role of macrophages in phagocytosis are of great theoretical and practical importance for understanding how these cells are involved in the organism’s defense response and in the development of various pathologies. Here we investigated phagocytic plasticity of THP–1 (acute monocytic human leukemia) cells at different stages (days 1, 3, and 7) of phorbol ester (PMA)–induced macrophage differentiation. Analysis of cytokine profiles showed that PMA at a concentration of 100 nM induced development of the proinflammatory macrophage population. The functional activity of macrophages was assessed on days 3 and 7 of differentiation using unlabeled latex beads and latex beads conjugated with ligands (gelatin, mannan, and IgG Fc fragment) that bind to the corresponding specific receptors. The general phagocytic activity increased significantly (1.5–2.0–fold) in the course of differentiation; phagocytosis occurred mostly through the Fc receptors, as shown previously for M1 macrophages. On day 7, the levels of phagocytosis of gelatin-and Fc–covered beads were high; however, the intensity of ingestion of mannan–conjugated beads via mannose receptors increased 2.5–3.0–fold as well, which indicated formation of cells with an alternative phenotype similar to that of M2 macrophages. Thus, the type and the plasticity of phagocytic activity at certain stages of macrophage differentiation can be associated with the formation of functionally mature morphological phenotype. This allows macrophages to exhibit their phagocytic potential in response to specific ligands. These data are of fundamental importance and can be used to develop therapeutic methods for correcting the M1/M2 macrophage ratio in an organism.     

Photo-enhancement of macrophage phagocytic activity via Rac1-mediated signaling pathway: Implications for bacterial infection

Phagocytosis and the subsequent destruction of invading pathogens by macrophages are indispensable steps in host immune responses to microbial infections. Low-power laser irradiation (LPLI) has been found to exert photobiological effects on immune responses, but the signaling mechanisms underlying this photobiomodulation of phagocytosis remains largely unknown. Here, we demonstrated for the first time that LPLI enhanced the phagocytic activity of macrophages by stimulating the activation of Rac1. The overexpression of constitutively activated Rac1 clearly enhanced LPLI-induced phagocytosis, whereas the overexpression of dominant negative Rac1 exerted the opposite effect. The phosphorylation of cofilin was involved in the effects of LPLI on phagocytosis, which was regulated by the membrane translocation and activation of Rac1. Furthermore, the photoactivation of Rac1 was dependent on the Src/PI3K/Vav1 pathway. The inhibition of the Src/PI3K pathway significantly suppressed LPLI-induced actin polymerization and phagocytosis enhancement. Additionally, LPLI-treated mice exhibited increased survival and a decreased organ bacterial load when challenged with Listeria monocytogenes, indicating that LPLI enhanced macrophage phagocytosis in vivo. These findings highlight the important roles of the Src/PI3K/Vav1/Rac1/cofilin pathway in regulating macrophage phagocytosis and provide a potential strategy for treating phagocytic deficiency via LPLI.     

Opsonic effect of antiserum and complement on phagocytosis by macrophages from the peritoneal cavity of the Japanese eel, Anguilla japonica

Macrophage exudates in the Japanese eel, Anguillu japonica, were induced by intraperitoneal injection with a mixture of Edwnrdsiella bacterin, proteose peptone and liquid paraffin, and the opsonic effect of antiserum and complement on the phagocytic activity of the macrophages was studied.
The macrophages contained a round nucleus with a nucleolus, and an agranular cytoplasm with projecting processes. These cells showed phagocytosis of sheep red blood cells (SRBC). An opsonic effect of antiserum was recognized in terms of a significant increase of macrophage phagocytic activity against SRBC treated with antiserum relative to that against SRBC treated with inactivated normal serum. Complement, however, did not enhance the phagocytic activity of macrophages.     

Different effects of fibronectin on the phagocytosis of Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci by murine peritoneal macrophages

Fibronectin is known to be an important factor in colonization by Staphylococcus aureus of host tissues as well as other extracellular matrix proteins such as collagen and laminin. We investigated the effect of fibronectin on the phagocytosis of the S. aureus Cowan I strain by macrophages and of coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) strains for comparison. Fibronectin-reduced serum in place of normal serum lowered the phagocytic activity of the macrophages on the Cowan I strain. Purified fibronectin enhanced the phagocytic activity of the strain in a dose-dependent manner. On the other hand, fibronectin did not show any opsonic effect on the ingestion of CNS strains, though the binding of fibronectin occurred equally well in CNS strains and the Cowan I strain. Fibronectin-binding protein (FnBP), the specific fibronectin receptor on the surface on S. aureus, was detected in both the Cowan I strain and CNS strains. Polymerase chain reaction confirmed that not only the Cowan I strain, but also CNS strains possessed the FnBP gene. These results indicate that fibronectin shows an opsonic effect on the S. aureus, Cowan I strain but not on CNS strains, and suggest that the binding of fibronectin to FnBP is not sufficient for efficient phagocytosis of the staphylococci strains by macrophages.     

辐射对大鼠肺巨噬细胞Fc受体表达和特异吞噬功能的影响

以往的实验表明,巨噬细胞(Macrophages简称Mф)对一定辐射剂量内的照射表现出较强的辐射抗性。因此学者们转向研究照射后时间依赖性的Mф损伤变化。这主要是涉及照射后所致的迟发损伤效应。有关大剂量照射后,短时间观察Mф损伤效应的研究报道甚少。为此本文观察了大鼠肺巨噬细胞(AlveolarMacrophages简称AM)在体外受100—500 Gy
