A study was made of a lymphokine produced by human T lymphocytes that mediates activation of human monocytes and monocyte-like cell lines, measured by increased production of H2O2. The lymphokine was produced either by stimulation of human nonadherent peripheral blood mononuclear cells with concanavalin A (Con A) or by stimulation of a human T cell line, HSB2, with Con A and phorbol myristic acetate (PMA). When incubated with freshly isolated peripheral blood monocytes for 48 to 72 hr, the H2O2-potentiating factor (HPPF) stimulated increased production of H2O2, measured in a PMA-triggered assay for H2O2 secretion. Because variations occurred in the response of normal blood donors to the HPPF, human monocyte-like cell lines were used as homogeneous and consistently responsive targets for the lymphokine to facilitate biochemical characterization studies of the factor. Two cell lines were studied: HL60, a human promyelocytic cell line, and U937, a human histiocytic cell line. When target cells of either type were incubated in the presence of the HPPF for 48 to 72 hr, they produced increased amounts of H2O2 in a dose-dependent fashion. H2O2 levels were assessed by means of a microassay that measures peroxide-mediated oxidation of phenol red after an oxidative burst triggered with PMA. By using this assay, HPPF was found to have an apparent m.w. of 54,000 and an isoelectric point of 5.5. The bouyant density was determined to be 1.307, indicating that HPPF is a protein. The utilization of cell lines for both the production and assay of HPPF should facilitate the purification of this lymphokine and the subsequent evaluation of its relationship to other lymphokines known to affect macrophage microbicidal and tumoricidal function. 相似文献

Activated monocytes are an important component of immunologic defense against neoplastic disease. A variety of agents capable of inducing tumoricidal activity have been described, including bacterial LPS, IFN-gamma, IL-1, IL-2, TNF, and GM-CSF. We now show that pretreatment of monocytes with recombinant human macrophage-specific colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) augments the tumoricidal activity of human peripheral blood monocytes induced by other activating agents. Monocytes were preincubated for three days with M-CSF at 10(3) U/ml, washed, and treated for an additional two days with secondary activators. Tumoricidal activity was measured in a 6-h 51Cr-release assay using NK-resistant WEHI 164 cells that had been treated with actinomycin D. Pretreatment of monocytes with M-CSF significantly increased tumoricidal activity induced by LPS, IFN gamma, LPS plus IFN gamma, and LPS plus PMA. Pretreatment with IL-1, IL-2, IL-3, IL-4, or GM-CSF was not as effective as M-CSF in increasing tumoricidal activity. Enhanced tumoricidal activity was directly correlated to the increased TNF production resulting from M-CSF pretreatment. TNF antiserum completely blocked tumoricidal activity, demonstrating that TNF was responsible for the M-CSF-mediated increase in tumor cell lysis. M-CSF pretreatment also enhanced non-TNF mediated tumoricidal activity by monocytes, as seen by increased killing of the TNF-resistant target P815. This study demonstrated that in addition to the role of M-CSF in the proliferation and differentiation of monocyte/macrophage precursors, M-CSF also augments an effector function of mature blood monocytes. 相似文献

We described the use of a new chemical substance Sodium nucleinate (SN) as an immunomodulatory substance exhibiting antiinflammatory properties. Sodium nucleinate (SN) registrated in Russian Federation as Tamerit, is 2-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrophthalazine-1,4-dione sodium salt dihydrate, derivative of well known chemical substance luminol. To comprehend the mechanisms of SN immunomodulatory activity, we examined the SN modulation of the oxidative burst responses of whole blood human monocytes and polimorphonuclear cells (PMC) stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) or E. coli suspension in vitro. SN did not inhibit the proportion of neutrophils and monocytes phagocytosing E. coli. Oxidative burst responses of monocytes stimulated with PMA were strongly inhibited at SN concentration ranging from 10-500 mg/ml, less efficient inhibitor was SN in E. coli stimulated monocytes (inhibition range was from 50-500 mg/ml SN). SN inhibited PMC oxidative burst only in range 100-500 mg/ml SN. In conclusion, we found SN as an efficient inhibitor of oxidative burst in monocytes. Since ROS generation in monocytes/macrophages has been found to be important for LPS-driven production of several proinflammatory cytokines, SN may exsert its antiinflammatory effects through monocyte/macrophage oxidative burst inhibition. 相似文献

Effect of catalase on the proliferation of human lymphocytes to phorbol myristate acetate 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Phorbol esters have been documented to stimulate the proliferation of human blood mononuclear cell cultures. In addition, these agents are also known to stimulate the production and release of reactive oxygen species by monocytes. We demonstrated previously that H2O2, one of these oxygen metabolites, impairs the proliferative capacity of human blood lymphocytes. Therefore, in these experiments, we determined whether or not the H2O2 released by monocytes after activation by PMA modifies the proliferation of lymphocytes to this agent. Human blood mononuclear cells (80% lymphocytes and 20% monocytes) were incubated with PMA, and lymphoblastic transformation (LBT) was quantitated at 3 and 5 days by pulsing the cultures with thymidine. Initial experiments established that the concentration of PMA required for optimal LBT was 50 ng/ml. We then demonstrated that this concentration of PMA also induces a burst in hexose monophosphate shunt activity and H2O2 production of mononuclear cells as indicated by the enhanced oxidation of 14C-glucose and 14C-formate, respectively. The amount of H2O2 released into the medium was substantial. Our measurements indicate that the concentration of H2O2 could reach values as high as 0.008 mM during the first 2 hr of the cultures. The addition of catalase to PMA-treated cultures in concentrations sufficient to scavenge the H2O2 released by the monocytes was associated with an enhanced thymidine uptake (mean 79%). These results indicate that the hydrogen peroxide released by the monocytes modifies the response of lymphocytes to the PMA. Paradoxically, mononuclear cell cultures depleted of monocytes also had a lower proliferation to PMA than mononuclear cell cultures. This observation indicates that monocytes also produce factors required for lymphocyte proliferation to PMA such as an interleukin. In contrast, to PMA cultures, catalase did not alter the proliferation of mononuclear cell cultures stimulated by PHA. We previously documented that PHA does not stimulate an immediate burst in the oxidative metabolism of mononuclear cultures. Therefore, the effect of catalase in these two culture systems appears to correlate with the capacity of the mitogen to stimulate the oxidative metabolism of mononuclear cells. These observations suggest that the release of reactive oxygen species by monocytes may modify the response of lymphocytes to antigens both in vitro and in vivo. 相似文献

IL-9 inhibits oxidative burst and TNF-alpha release in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated human monocytes through TGF-beta 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

IL-9 is a Th2 cytokine that exerts pleiotropic activities on T cells, B cells, mast cells, hematopoietic progenitors, and lung epithelial cells, but no effect of this cytokine has been reported so far on mononuclear phagocytes. Human blood monocytes preincubated with IL-9 for 24 h before LPS or PMA stimulation exhibited a decreased oxidative burst, even in the presence of IFN-gamma. The inhibitory effect of IL-9 was specifically abolished by anti-hIL-9R mAb, and the presence of IL-9 receptors was demonstrated on human blood monocytes by FACS. IL-9 also down-regulated TNF-alpha and IL-10 release by LPS-stimulated monocytes. In addition, IL-9 strongly up-regulated the production of TGF-beta1 by LPS-stimulated monocytes. The suppressive effect of IL-9 on the respiratory burst and TNF-alpha production in LPS-stimulated monocytes was significantly inhibited by anti-TGF-beta1, but not by anti-IL-10Rbeta mAb. Furthermore, IL-9 inhibited LPS-induced activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 mitogen-activated protein kinases in monocytes through a TGF-beta-mediated induction of protein phosphatase activity. In contrast, IL-4, which exerts a similar inhibitory effect on the oxidative burst and TNF-alpha release by monocytes, acts primarily through a down-regulation of LPS receptors. Thus, IL-9 deactivates LPS-stimulated blood mononuclear phagocytes, and the mechanism of inhibition involves the potentiation of TGF-beta1 production and extracellular signal-regulated kinase inhibition. These findings highlight a new target cell for IL-9 and may account for the beneficial activity of IL-9 in animal models of exaggerated inflammatory response. 相似文献

The innate immune response to bovine Babesia bovis infection in vivo has not previously been established. We used assays measuring phagocytosis and oxidative burst to investigate the immune response because they are indicative of the innate antimicrobial capacity of monocytes and neutrophils. Monocyte and neutrophil phagocytosis is thought to be non-specific in nature and so the phagocytosis of either opsonised Zymosan or Escherichia coli was used to indicate the non-specific phagocytic capacity of monocytes and neutrophils ex vivo. The kinetics of both phagocytic and oxidative burst activity in monocytes and neutrophils were followed twice weekly from pre-inoculation (day 0) through to 31 days after inoculation. Peripheral blood monocytes were found to display a pronounced oxidative burst, but a suppressed capacity to phagocytose during a primary infection. On the other hand, neutrophils exhibited an increased phagocytic capacity and reduced oxidative activity during a primary infection. These findings identified considerable antimicrobial activity evident in peripheral blood monocytes and neutrophils from cattle exposed to B. bovis as a primary exposure. This elevated antimicrobial activity was coincident with the time that parasite numbers peaked in the circulation and occurred prior to parasite clearance. These results suggest that peripheral blood monocytes and neutrophils are active mediators in the innate immune response to a primary B. bovis. 相似文献

Respiratory burst in alveolar macrophages of diabetic rats 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Bactericidal ability of alveolar macrophages is depressed in rats with diabetes mellitus. To define the mechanism of this abnormality, we measured the parameters of respiratory burst in alveolar macrophages, peripheral blood monocytes, and neutrophils of rats 8 wk after the induction of diabetes by streptozocin. Superoxide anion (O2-.) generation during basal conditions and after stimulation with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) was measured as superoxide dismutase-inhibitable cytochrome c reduction. NADPH, the principal substrate for NADPH-oxidase-dependent O2-. generation, was measured in the alveolar macrophages and quick-frozen lungs by the enzyme-cycling method. O2-. generation after PMA was significantly lower in the alveolar macrophages of diabetics than in the controls (14.4 +/- 2.0 nmol.10(6) cells-1.20 min-1 vs. 26.2 +/- 1.9, P less than 0.05). Conversely the peripheral blood monocytes of diabetics demonstrated an enhanced O2-. production after PMA stimulation. There was no significant difference in the neutrophil O2-.-generation between the groups. The alveolar macrophage NADPH (control 0.44 +/- 0.15 nmol/10(6) cells vs. diabetic 0.21 +/- 0.04, P less than 0.05) and lung tissue NADPH levels (control 81.4 +/- 16.3 nmol/g dry wt vs. diabetic 35.8 +/- 20.5, P less than 0.05) were significantly lower in the diabetics than in the controls. These data indicate that the O2-.-generating capacity of alveolar macrophages is markedly depressed in diabetes, whereas their precursors, monocytes, are primed to generate O2-. with PMA stimulation.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Expression of c-fos mRNA was investigated in fresh, normal peritoneal macrophages (M phi), which are terminally differentiated, nonproliferating cells. The levels of c-fos mRNA were dramatically increased by stimulation with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), calcium ionophore, or 1-oleoyl-2-acetoyl glycerol (OAG). Induction of c-fos mRNA by all the above agents followed similar kinetics, with a peak of mRNA 30 min after stimulation. These results demonstrate that c-fos mRNA can be augmented in fresh, terminally differentiated cells. Since the stimuli increasing c-fos mRNA are direct or indirect activators of protein kinase C, our data suggest that in M phi c-fos mRNA is controlled by protein kinase C activation. PMA, calcium ionophore, and OAG were biologically active in M phi. PMA and calcium ionophore induced respiratory burst and tumoricidal activity, respectively, whereas OAG and PMA were chemotactic for M phi. Interferons beta and gamma, potent M phi activators eliciting tumoricidal activity, did not alter the levels of c-fos mRNA. These results indicate that c-fos mRNA augmentation is a stimulus-specific rather than a function-specific response connected to activation of protein kinase C. 相似文献

Oxidative burst is a defense mechanism used by specialized phagocytes such as granulocytes or monocytes to kill the invading microorganisms through generation of superoxide anions. Oxidative burst also results in DNA damage of the phagocytes. Phagocytes are terminally differentiated and some of very short life-span cells. We could find no reports whether oxidative burst-mediated DNA damage triggers in such cells histone H2AX-Ser139 phosphorylation and activation of Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM), the signals otherwise used to activate DNA repair and checkpoint pathways in proliferating cells. We now present the evidence that induction of oxidative stress in human peripheral blood leukocytes by phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) was associated with intense phosphorylation of histone H2AX and with ATM activation, seen already 60 min after exposure to PMA. The modifications of H2AX and ATM in individual granulocytes, monocytes and lymphocytes were detected prior to caspases activation and thus were unrelated to induction of apoptosis. A large intercellular variation in response was observed, and only a fraction of cells in these subpopulations showed H2AX and ATM modifications. The data are compatible with the earlier observations of DNA damage during oxidative burst and suggest that even in terminally differentiated cells that have a short life-span, DNA damage triggers recruitment of the DNA repair machinery. The observed H2AX phosphorylation in lymphocytes may reflect their DNA damage by the superoxide ions propagating from the neighboring granulocytes and/or monocytes. 相似文献

Oxidative burst activity and the expression of adhesion molecules have been used as indicators of leukocyte activation status. The aim of the study was to delineate the relationship of oxidative burst activity and the expression of adhesion molecules in neutrophils and monocytes from a pool of healthy volunteers (n = 96). We also tested the potential role of gender and a racial background in the individual response differences. Basal and phorbol myristate acetate (PMA)-stimulated oxidative burst and CD11b expression were determined using dihydrorhodamine 123 and phycoerythrin (PE)-conjugated anti-CD11b monoclonal antibodies. PMA markedly increased CD11b expression and cellular oxidant content in neutrophils and monocytes in all samples. However, the responses showed considerable variability among individuals. A positive correlation was observed between the responsiveness of neutrophils and monocytes in their basal or PMA-stimulated CD11b expressions and PMA-stimulated oxidative burst activities. In contrast, no correlation was found between the level of adhesion molecule expression and cellular oxidant content in monocytes or neutrophils either under basal or under PMA-stimulated conditions. The reactivity of oxidative burst (i.e., PMA-stimulated over basal) was significantly lower in neutrophils from African American males compared with cells from African American females, white females, or white males. In contrast, reactivity of monocytes was significantly elevated in white males compared with all other groups. These findings indicate that leukocytes with a relatively high degree of adhesion molecule expression may display an average or decreased oxidative burst activity, and vice versa. Our findings also indicate that ethnic background may influence the oxidative burst activity in neutrophils and monocytes. This needs consideration in clinical studies utilizing healthy volunteers with mixed gender and ethnic backgrounds. 相似文献

Cytotoxicity of human peripheral blood monocytes 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Native tumoricidal activity of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells was examined before and after their separation by counterflow centrifugation elutriation (CCE). Tumoricidal activity was found in the subpopulation of small mononuclear cells but not within the relatively pure subpopulation of large monocytes. Addition of lymphokine and/or lipopolysaccharide demonstrated that large monocytes were resistant to activation for tumor killing, in contrast to small mononuclear cells. However, cryopreservation or simply exposure to dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) rendered the large monocytes sensitive to activating agents without altering their unstimulated tumoricidal activity. Cryopreservation was not detrimental to small or large monocytes either in number or tumoricidal function but did decrease the number of large granular lymphocytes (LGL). The small mononuclear cell fraction was enriched for small monocytes to 80% by combining CCE with Percoll gradient separation. HNK-1 mouse monoclonal antibody against human LGL was used with complement to remove virtually all LGL from cryopreserved cells as judged by morphology and tumoricidal activity against K-562 human lymphoblastoid cells. Such treatment actually augmented rather than suppressed tumoricidal activity against P-815 mastocytoma cells. Therefore, we conclude that small monocytes but not large monocytes possess native tumoricidal activity distinct from that attributed to LGL or natural killer lymphocytes. Further, small monocytes are readily activated for tumor killing and can be cryopreserved without loss of tumoricidal activity. 相似文献

The AGAPEPAEPAQPGVY proline-rich polypeptide (PRP) was isolated from neurosecretory granules of the bovine neurohypophysis; it is produced by N. supraopticus and N. paraventricularis. PRP possesses immune-modulating activity, preventing the death of Gram-negative bacteria-infected mice. Here we show that PRP does not affect human peripheral blood neutrophlis and monocytes phagocytosis but dramatically enhances spontaneous or fMLP- and PMA-induced, and also phagocytosis-dependent, oxidative burst. We demonstrated the regulatory role of PRP on the oxidative burst induction of normal and relapsing inflammatory disease (Behcets disease and familial Mediterranean fever) neutrophils and monocytes. Our results suggest a previously undescribed role for the hypothalamic peptide within primary activated neutrophils and monocytes, since we provide evidence that PRP can differentially regulate both chemotaxis- and phagocytosis-dependent oxidative burst in normal and inflammatory disease effector cells. 相似文献

A mouse IgM mAb termed P1E3 was raised against resting human peripheral blood neutrophils and has been shown to recognize a cell-surface Ag with an apparent molecular mass of 155 kDa, as assessed by immunoprecipitation analysis. In addition to the main 155-kDa protein, an additional band of about 210 kDa was also recognized by P1E3 in Western blot analysis. Sequential immunoprecipitation assays showed that the Ag recognized by P1E3 differed from the CD29 and CD45 Ag. However, sequential immunoprecipitation assays carried out with two distinct anti-CD15 mAb and P1E3 showed that P1E3 reacted with CD15 or with a CD15-like Ag. P1E3 stained strongly resting human peripheral blood neutrophils, hardly reacted with peripheral blood monocytes and did not react with PBL and platelets, as assessed by immunofluorescence flow cytometry. P1E3 inhibited the respiratory burst induced by PMA or FMLP, but not the oxidative response induced by Con A or the calcium ionophores A23187 or ionomycin. Furthermore, P1E3 inhibited the activation of the Na+/H+ antiporter in response to PMA or FMLP and the phosphorylation of a protein of about 50 kDa in response to PMA. However, preincubation of neutrophils with P1E3 did not affect the increase in cytosolic free calcium concentration induced by FMLP. These data suggest that the Ag recognized by P1E3 may play a role in modulating the activation of the respiratory burst induced by PMA or FMLP, and that P1E3 seems to affect protein kinase C-mediated signal transduction mechanisms coupled to the induction of the respiratory burst. 相似文献

The capacity of human monocytoid cell lines and peripheral blood monocytes to modulate their expression of plasminogen receptors has been assessed. After PMA stimulation, THP-1 or U937 monocytoid cells were separated into adherent and nonadherent populations. Plasminogen bound to adherent cells with similar capacity and affinity as to nonstimulated cells. In contrast, the nonadherent cells bound plasminogen with 5-17-fold higher capacity (without a change in affinity). This increase was selective as urokinase bound with similar affinity and capacity to the adherent and nonadherent populations. Upregulation of plasminogen receptors on the nonadherent monocytoid cells was rapid, detectable within 30 min, and reversible, adhesion of the nonadherent cells resulted in a sixfold decrease in plasminogen binding within 90 min. The increase in plasminogen binding to the nonadherent cells was associated with a marked increase in their capacity to generate plasmin activity from cell-bound plasminogen. PMA stimulation of human peripheral blood monocytes increased their expression of plasminogen receptors by two- to fourfold. This increase was observed in both adherent and nonadherent monocytes. Freshly isolated monocytes maximally bound 5.0 x 10(5) plasminogen molecules per cell, whereas monocytes cultured for 18 h or more maximally bound 1.7 x 10(7) molecules per cell, a 30-fold difference in receptor number. These results indicate that both monocytes and monocytoid cell lines can rapidly and markedly regulate their expression of plasminogen binding sites. As enhanced plasminogen binding is correlated with an increased capacity to generate plasmin, an enzyme with broad substrate recognition, modulation of plasminogen receptors may have profound functional consequences. 相似文献

Effect of glycolipids of Leishmania parasites on human monocyte activity. Inhibition by lipophosphoglycan 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Lipophosphoglycan (LPG) and glycosyl phosphatidylinositol Ag (GPI), are glycolipids present on the membrane of Leishmania parasites. Both glycolipids have been chemically characterized. LPG is a polysaccharide of repeating phosphorylated units linked to a phosphocarbohydrate core that is anchored to the membrane by lysoalkyl phosphatidylinositol (PI). The GPI are smaller glycolipids with a structure resembling the phosphocarbohydrate core of the LPG. They are anchored to the membrane by alkyl acyl PI. Their relative abundance, uniqueness of structure, and cellular location suggest a role in interactions of the parasites with host cells. In the present study we examined the effect of LPG and GPI on the activation of human peripheral blood monocytes. Three parameters were studied: the production of IL-1, chemotactic locomotion, and oxidative burst. We found that whereas neither GPI nor LPG directly affected monocyte activity, preincubation of the monocytes with LPG strongly inhibited further activation: The production of IL-1, after stimulation with LPS, was decreased in a dose-dependent manner. Previous incubation with LPG also inhibited chemotactic locomotion of monocytes and neutrophils in response to diacylglycerol, zymosan-activated serum, FMLP and LTB4. Luminol-dependent chemiluminiscence caused by stimulation of the monocytes with streptococci and histone was also inhibited. After fragmentation of the LPG into phosphoglycan and 1-O-alkylglycerol by phosphatidylinositol-phospholipase C, only the phosphoglycan retained inhibitory activity. No difference in inhibitory activity was found between LPG prepared from Leishmania major or Leishmania donovani promastigotes. These results show that the phosphoglycan of LPG inhibits the immunologic response of normal human monocytes and neutrophils, and suggest that LPG may influence the nature of the inflammatory response surrounding infected cells. 相似文献

Pulmonary surfactant phospholipids have been shown previously to regulate inflammatory functions of human monocytes. This study was undertaken to delineate the mechanisms by which pulmonary surfactant modulates the respiratory burst in a human monocytic cell line, MonoMac-6 (MM6). Preincubation of MM6 cells with the surfactant preparations Survanta, Curosurf, or Exosurf Neonatal inhibited the oxidative response to either lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and zymosan or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) by up to 50% (P < 0.01). Preincubation of MM6 cells and human peripheral blood monocytes with dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPPC), the major phospholipid component of surfactant, inhibited the oxidative response to zymosan. DPPC did not directly affect the activity of the NADPH oxidase in a MM6 reconstituted cell system, suggesting that DPPC does not affect the assembly of the individual components of this enzyme into a functional unit. The effects of DPPC were evaluated on both LPS/zymosan and PMA activation of protein kinase C (PKC), a ubiquitous intracellular kinase, in MM6 cells. We found that DPPC significantly inhibited the activity of PKC in stimulated cells by 70% (P < 0.01). Western blotting experiments demonstrated that DPPC was able to attenuate the activation of the PKCdelta isoform but not PKCalpha. These results suggest that DPPC, the major component of pulmonary surfactant, plays a role in modulating leukocyte inflammatory responses in the lung via downregulation of PKC, a mechanism that may involve the PKCdelta isoform. 相似文献

Effects of immune complexes on production by human monocytes of interleukin 1 or an interleukin 1 inhibitor 总被引:35,自引:0,他引:35

The objective of these studies was to examine the ability of phorbol myristic acetate (PMA), Fc fragments, and various forms of immune complexes to induce the production by human monocytes of factors stimulatory to chondrocytes or thymocytes. All of these materials were prepared free of detectable contamination with bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) at the level of less than 0.1 ng/ml. Supernatants and lysates from stimulated human monocytes were assayed for their ability to induce collagenase production in cultured rabbit articular chondrocytes or to augment mitogen-induced proliferation of murine thymocytes. The activity detected by these assays exhibited an m.w. of approximately 15,000, and electrophoretic heterogeneity in the pH ranges of 5 to 5.5 and 6.5 to 7.0, characteristics of human interleukin 1 (IL 1) or IL 1-like factors. Monocytes cultured with 2 ng/ml LPS produced chondrocyte and thymocyte stimulatory factors. PMA, Fc fragments, and soluble, precipitated, particulate, or adherent immune complexes were inactive in stimulating the monocytes. However, complement fixation by precipitated immune complexes did generate activity capable of inducing monocytes to synthesize and secrete chondrocyte and thymocyte stimulatory factors. Adherent immune complexes and PMA were biologically active, as evidenced by induction of superoxide generation in the human monocytes. Supernatants from monocytes cultured on adherent immune complexes contained a factor inhibitory to chondrocyte and thymocyte responsiveness. This factor had a m.w. approximately 22,000 and appeared to inhibit specifically IL 1 stimulation, not interleukin 2 stimulation or cell proliferation. It was concluded that PMA, Fc fragments, and various forms of immune complexes in the absence of complement do not induce IL 1 production in human monocytes. However, complement fixation by immune complexes does lead to activation of monocytes to produce IL 1. Monocytes cultured on adherent immune complexes produce an IL 1 inhibitor. 相似文献

In vitro natural killer (NK) activity expressed by blood mononuclear cells from patients with chronic granulomatous disease of childhood (CGD) was equivalent to that expressed by cells from normal, healthy volunteers. Because neutrophils and monocytes from these same donors exhibited extremely depressed oxidative functions, our data could be interpreted to show that a) NK cells derived from a unique and separate cellular lineage unaffected by the disease-related oxidative defect, or b) the in vitro cytolytic mechanism(s) of NK cells were not dependent on oxygen metabolites. These hypotheses were examined by using as NK effector cells large granular lymphocytes (LGL) from healthy donors whose monocytes and neutrophils had normal oxidative functions. Such functions were measured in the nitroblue tetrazolium dye reduction assay, which is a qualitative measurement of superoxide anion production; by reduction of ferric cytochrome c, a more specific and quantitative measurement of superoxide anion production; and in the luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence assay, an extremely sensitive measure of several reactive oxygen radicals, including superoxide anion, hydroxyl radical, and singlet oxygen. Whereas monocytes and neutrophils from healthy donors were readily stimulated with zymosan or phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) in each of these assays. LGL produced no detectable amounts of oxygen metabolites when co-incubated either with K562 erythroleukemia cells, PMA, E. coli endotoxin, or the calcium ionophore A23187. Thus, because NK cell activity is normal in CGD patients with major oxidative defects, and because no reactive oxygen metabolites could be detected in LGL that simultaneously exhibited potent NK activity, we conclude that in vitro NK activity by human mononuclear cells involves a lytic mechanism(s) independent of oxygen metabolites. 相似文献

Antibodies to 5'-nucleotidase (CD73), a glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol-anchored protein, cause human peripheral blood T cells to proliferate 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Human peripheral blood T cells were stimulated to proliferate when cultured with submitogenic doses of PMA and goat antibodies to 5'-nucleotidase (5'-NT). The degree of proliferation, as measured by [3H]TdR incorporation on day 3, was similar to that achieved by stimulation with PHA. Anti-5'-NT antibodies had no effect on PHA-induced proliferation. Maximal stimulation was achieved with 0.6 to 1.0 ng/ml of PMA and 125 micrograms/ml of IgG isolated from a goat anti-5'-NT antiserum. Both intact IgG and F(ab')2 fragments were stimulatory. IL-2R expression and IL-2 secretion were also induced by anti-5'-NT antibodies and PMA. Anti-5'-NT-induced proliferation was inhibited greater than 95% by a murine anti-IL-2 receptor mAb and required less than 0.3% monocytes. Similar results have been obtained with a murine mAb specific for 5'-NT. As expected, anti-5'-NT antibodies and PMA did not induce the proliferation of ecto-5'-NT-T cells isolated by cell sorting. Pretreatment of total T cells with phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C removed an average of 89% of the 5'-NT activity from the cell surface and also inhibited by 83% the ability of the cells to proliferate in response to anti-5'-NT antibodies and PMA. Thus, the activation signal provided by anti-5'-NT antibodies is apparently transduced, in large part, by a form of the enzyme that is attached to the membrane via glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol linkage. These data suggest that 5'-NT may play a role in lymphocyte activation as has been proposed for other glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol-anchored lymphocyte surface proteins. 相似文献
