CD28 is expressed abnormally on human multiple myeloma (MM) cells but the significance had not been identified until now. In this paper, we are suggesting that abnormal expression of CD28 might be a marker of tumour progression. We therefore took the approach of generating a hybridoma cell line capable of secreting agonist monoclonal antibody directed against human CD28 (agonist anti-CD28 mAb) and then determined the expression of CD28 molecules on the MM cell lines U266 and XG1. The biological effects of agonist anti-CD28 mAb on cell growth and proliferation of U266 and XG1 cell lines were then analysed. Our results showed that the expression of CD28 on U266 and XG1 was significantly higher than that of PBTC or Jurkat cells. We found that by adding the agonist anti-CD28 mAb to cultures of U266 and XG1 cells their rate of growth and proliferation was obviously inhibited. Further morphological and molecular analyses found that U266 and XG1 incubated with agonist anti-CD28 mAb showed signs of nuclear condensation, chromatin marginal changes, cells membrane breaking, and cytoplasmic shrinkage. Vacuoles and apoptotic bodies were also observed using a transmission electron microscope and the development of typical DNA laddering patterns were found by the use of electrophoresis assays, suggesting that U266 and XG1 cells were undergoing apoptosis induced by agonist anti-CD28 mAb in vitro.  相似文献

The expression of 80 kDa interleukin-6 receptor (IL-6R) and the associated molecule gp130 has been studied on human cell lines by FACS- and Northern blot analysis. The effects of dexamethasone, dibutyric-(DB)-cAMP and phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (TPA) have been studied on plasmacytoma cell line U266, B cell line BMNH and monocytoid cell line U937. Our data show a definite downregulation of IL-6R and gp130 expression by TPA in U266 and BMNH at both mRNA and cell surface protein levels. In U937 TPA inhibits only the IL-6R expression, without affecting that of gp130. DB-cAMP decreases the expression of both proteins in U937, slightly inhibits the IL-6R expression in U266, but is uneffective in BMNH. Dexamethasone induces considerable upregulation of gp130 only in U266. Our findings suggest separate regulation of IL-6R and gp130 on U266, BMNH and U937 cell lines.  相似文献

Distinct subsets of somatostatin receptors on cultured human lymphocytes   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9  
Somatostatin (SOM) is a neuroendocrine tetradecapeptide that suppresses specific functions of differentiated T-cells and antibody-producing cells. The Jurkat line of human leukemic T-cells and U266 IgE-producing human myeloma cells bound [I-Tyr11]SOM specifically. The maximal level of specific binding was attained by 1-2 h at 22 degrees C for both types of cells and reversed by 70-85% within 2-3 h after the addition of excess nonradioactive SOM. Computer-assisted Scatchard analysis of the competition curves revealed two classes of binding sites for both cells. An average of 144 and 1295 high affinity receptors per Jurkat and U266 cells had a Kd value of 3 pM and 5 pM, respectively, whereas a large number of low affinity sites had Kd values of 66 nM and 100 nM. The affinity of the analogs somatostatin 28, [I-Tyr11]SOM, and [D-Trp8, D-Cys14]SOM for Jurkat and U266 cell lines, relative to SOM, suggested a degree of specificity similar to receptors on neuroendocrine cells.  相似文献

The ability of activated T cells to suppress ongoing IgE synthesis in vitro was assessed using U266--a human myeloma cell line spontaneously producing IgE. T cells were able to inhibit U266 IgE synthesis in the presence of 10 micrograms/ml of Con A by 41.8% (p less than 0.01). T cells preincubated with 10 or 50 micrograms/ml of Con A and washed extensively were still able to inhibit U266 IgE synthesis in the absence of Con A by 41 and 46% (p less than 0.05 and p less than 0.02, respectively). The decrease in IgE measured was due to inhibition of newly formed IgE by U266, as shown by control experiments with cycloheximide. The inhibition was not due to the simple depletion of nutrient growth factors by the activated T cells, as it did not occur with MOLT-4, T cells that are very active metabolically; nor could it be reversed with medium containing IL 2 and B cell growth factors. Culture supernatants of Con A-activated T cells were also able to suppress IgE synthesis by U266 (21%; p less than 0.01), which suggests that upon appropriate activation, T cells secrete material(s) with inhibitory properties for IgE synthesis. Activation of T cells by mixed lymphocyte culture using puromycin-treated lymphoblastoid cell lines as stimulators also generated T cells that had suppressive activity for IgE synthesis. T cells activated with Con A and subsequently incubated with IgE demonstrated a diminished ability to suppress IgE synthesis. This observation is in agreement with the finding that patients with high levels of IgE may lack isotype-specific suppressor T cells for spontaneous IgE secretion. However, T cells from such patients have so far shown variable loss of IgE suppressive function. These results suggest that human IgE synthesis is susceptible to inhibition at a very differentiated stage, and this may be important in expression of allergic diseases.  相似文献

The objectives of this work are to investigate the incorporation of arachidonic acid (AA) in the human myeloma cell lines OPM2, U266 and IM9, and to assess the effect of AA and lipoxygenase products of AA on their growth. The kinetics of acylation of [3H]AA indicates that myeloma cells incorporate AA into their membrane phospholipids and triglycerides. PLA2-treatment and base hydrolysis experiments confirm that [3H]AA is incorporated unmodified in U266, IM9 and OPM2 phospholipids, and is linked by an ester bond. Prelabeling-chase experiments indicate no trafficking of labeled AA among the various phospholipid species. Addition of AA and lipoxygenase products of AA (leukotriene B4 and C4, lipoxin A4 and B4, 12- and 15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid) have no effect on U266, IM9 and OPM2 proliferation assessed by [3H]thymidine incorporation into DNA. In conclusion, while human myeloma cells readily incorporate AA in their membrane phospholipids and triglycerides, AA and lipoxygenase products are not important modulators of their proliferation.  相似文献

Rabbit antisera were produced against a lymphokine-activated human macrophage cell line, U937 (αU937), and human peritoneal macrophages (αPEMØ). After absorption with AB erythrocytes, pooled platelets, and B-lymphoblastoid cell lines, both antisera reacted by microcytotoxicity, indirect immunofluorescence (IF), and radioimmunoassay (RIA) with adherence-purified human peripheral blood monocytes, splenic and peritoneal macrophages, and leukemic myelomonoblasts. A panel of normal human T lymphocytes, B lymphocytes, and erythroid-myeloid or lymphoblastoid cell lines failed to react with both αU937 and αPEMØ. Although both heteroantisera reacted against polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs), after absorption with PMNs specific reactivity against mononuclear phagocytes remained. Absorption of αU937 and αPEMØ with myelomonoblastic leukemia cells (AMML) removed IF and RIA activity against both PMNs and monocytes but not against splenic and peritoneal macrophages. In contrast, absorptions of both heteroantisera preparations with splenic macrophages abolished their IF and RIA reactivity not only to splenic and peritoneal macrophages but also to peripheral blood monocytes and leukemic myelomonoblasts. These results are consistent with (1) both antisera defining specific monocyte/macrophage-associated antigens(s) which are distinct from MHC-coded HLA-A,B,C, and DR antigens, and (2) expression of common monocyte/macrophage-associated antigen(s) and uniquely associated antigen(s) selectively expressed on tissue macrophages. These reagents will be useful in delineating human monocyte/macrophage differentiation as well as the immunological functions of mononuclear phagocytes.  相似文献

CD28 is an Ag of 44-kDa Mr that is expressed on the membrane of the majority of human T cells and that is recognized by mAb 9.3. The functional effects of mAb 9.3 on peripheral blood T cells were studied. mAb 9.3 was not mitogenic, unless it was combined with PMA. When CD28 was cross-linked after binding of mAb 9.3 to the T cell by immobilized or soluble anti-mouse IgG, T cells proliferated in response to rIL-2, provided that monocytes were also present. The additional signal required for IL-2 responsiveness after cross-linking of CD28 could also be delivered in cultures of purified T cells by a cellfree monocyte culture supernatant. Expression of IL-2R on about 10% of the T cells was demonstrated by staining with an anti-IL-2R mAb, and was found to be largely restricted to CD4+ cells. The active compound responsible for the helper signal in the monocyte culture supernatant was identified as IL-6 because purified IL-6 (but not IL-1 beta) had similar activity and because an antiserum to IL-6 (but not an antiserum to IL-1 beta) neutralized the activity of the monocyte supernatant and blocked T cell proliferation. An anti-IL-2R antibody also completely inhibited T cell proliferation induced by the combination of mAb 9.3, IL-2, and IL-6. Our results provide evidence that cross-linking of CD28 induces functional IL-2R and that this activity is dependent on a helper signal provided by monocytes, more specifically IL-6. Moreover, our results indicate that IL-6 (previously called B cell stimulatory factor-2) is active on T cells. If a natural ligand for CD28 can be identified, the mechanism of induction of IL-2 responsiveness described here might explain how T cells become nonspecifically involved in an ongoing cellular immune reaction.  相似文献

Five new diketopiperazines, prenylcyclotryprostatin B (1), 20-hydroxycyclotryprostatin B (2), 9-hydroxyfumitremorgin C (3), 6-hydroxytryprostatin B (4), and spirogliotoxin (5), were isolated from the marine-derived fungus Aspergillus fumigatus YK-7, along with nine known compounds, 6-14. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods, and their antiproliferative effects on human leukemic monocyte lymphoma U937 and human prostate cancer PC-3 cell lines were assessed in vitro. Compounds 10, 12, and 13 exhibited significant cell growth-inhibitory activities against U937 cell line, with the IC(50) values of 1.8, 0.2, and 0.5 μM, respectively.  相似文献

EBV infects human B lymphocytes and induces them to proliferate, to produce Ig, and to give rise to immortal cell lines. Although the mechanisms of B cell activation by EBV are largely unknown, the continuous proliferation of EBV-immortalized B cells is dependent, at least in part, upon autocrine growth factors produced by the same EBV-infected B cells. In the present studies we have examined the influence of monocytes on B cell activation by EBV and found that unlike peripheral blood T cells and B cells, monocytes enhance by as much as 30- to 50-fold virus-induced B cell proliferation and Ig production. Upon activation with LPS, monocytes secrete a growth factor activity that promotes both proliferation and Ig secretion in EBV-infected B cells and thus reproduces the effects of monocytes in these cultures. Unlike a number of other factors, rIFN-beta 2/B cell stimulatory factor 2 (BSF-2)/IL-6 stimulates the growth of human B cells activated by EBV in a manner similar to that induced by activated monocyte supernatants. In addition, an antiserum to IFN-beta that recognizes both IFN-beta 1 and IFN-beta 2 completely neutralizes the B cell growth factor activity of activated monocyte supernatants. These findings demonstrate that IFN-beta 2/BSF-2/IL-6 is a growth factor for human B cells activated by EBV and suggest that this molecule is responsible for B cell growth stimulation induced by activated monocyte supernatants. We have examined the possibility that IFN-beta 2/BSF-2/IL-6 might also be responsible for B cell growth stimulation by supernatants of EBV-immortalized B cells and thus may function as an autocrine growth factor. However, IFN-beta 2/BSF-2/IL-6 is not detectable in supernatants of EBV-immortalized B cells by immunoprecipitation. Also, an antiserum to IFN-beta that neutralizes IFN-beta 2/BSF-2/IL-6 fails to neutralize autocrine growth factor activity. This suggests that autocrine growth factors produced by EBV-immortalized B cells are distinct from IFN-beta 2/BSF-2/IL-6. Thus, the continuous proliferation of EBV-immortalized B cells is enhanced by either autocrine or paracrine growth factors. One of the mediators with paracrine growth factor activity is IFN-beta 2/BSF-2/IL-6.  相似文献

Lymphocyte chemotactic activity of human interleukin 1   总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16  
In the cellular immune response, there is an accumulation of mainly nonantigen-specific mononuclear cells that presumably is dependent on the local secretion of chemotactic factors. In view of the presence of large numbers of macrophages early in the delayed hypersensitivity response, the possible role of these cells in the chemotaxis of lymphocytes was investigated by studying the chemotactic activity of purified human interleukin 1 (IL 1) on T and B cells. Chemotactic activity for T and B cells was observed, the effect on B cells being greater than on T cells. At low concentrations (less than 1 U/ml), IL 1 had predominantly chemotactic activity for B cells and chemokinetic activity for T cells. At high concentrations (10 to 20 U/ml), IL 1 had pure chemotactic activity for both cell types. A relationship was found between levels of migration of T and B cells and mouse thymocyte proliferation induced by purified IL 1 and by lipopolysaccharide-stimulated monocyte supernatants. The principal peaks of both activities were found in 16,000 to 18,000 m.w. fractions. In additional studies, the chemotactic response to IL 1 was inhibited by preincubation of T and B cells with IL 1 or stimulated monocyte supernatant, demonstrating the role of binding of IL 1 in the chemotactic response.  相似文献

Cultured human myeloma cells of the U266 line and leukemic T cells of the Jurkat line bound synthetic [125I]Tyr10-vasoactive intestinal peptide1-28 ([125I]VIP1-28) specifically and with an affinity similar to that of neuroendocrine cells. Specific binding reached equilibrium after 2 h at 22 degrees C for both myeloma cells and T cells, attained a maximum of 57 to 71% of total binding, and was reversed in 1.5 to 3 h by an excess of non-radioactive VIP1-28. Analyses of the ligand concentration-dependence of binding of the ligand concentration-dependence of binding of [125I]VIP1-28 revealed a mean Kd of 7.6 nM for a mean of 41,207 receptors per myeloma cell and 5.2 nM for 12,266 receptors per T cell. The relative affinity of binding of mast cell-derived VIP10-28 free acid and synthetic analogues suggested differences in specificity between lymphocyte and neuroendocrine receptors. Distinct sets of receptors thus appear to mediate the effects of VIP on functions of both antibody-producing cells and T cells.  相似文献

Freshly separated human NK cells (NKH-1+) inhibited IgE synthesis from IgE myeloma U266/AF-10 as much as 70% whereas they enhanced IgG and IgA synthesis 200 and 500% from the lymphoblastoid cell lines GM-1500 and GM-1056, respectively. The inhibition of IgE synthesis by NK cells was due to a direct cytolytic effect on AF-10. This could be reversed using K562 cells in a cold target competition assay. NK cells also inhibited spontaneous IgE as well as IgG and IgA synthesis from B cells of highly atopic donors. On the other hand the enhancement of Ig secretion by NKH-1+ cells was shown to be mediated by soluble factors released from NK cells. Furthermore when NK cells were preincubated with immune complexes (IgE-IC) constructed of human IgE and mouse IgG1 monoclonal anti-human IgE, inhibition of IgE synthesis was reversed, and in some cases actual enhancement of IgE synthesis was observed, while enhancement of IgG and IgA synthesis was not affected. In contrast to NK cells, T cells depleted of NK cells (T-NK), when activated by IgE-IC, suppressed IgE synthesis in an isotype specific fashion. Thus, NK and T-cell modulation of ongoing Ig synthesis involve distinct mechanisms.  相似文献

The effect of recombinant human interleukin-6 (rhIL-6) on induction of nitrite (NO(-2)) production was investigated in a mouse myeloid leukemia cell line (M1) and a subclone (Mm1). NO(-2) was induced by rhIL-6 (greater than 50 U/ml) in these cell lines. Pretreatment with rhIL-6 (100 U/ml) for 1 day synergistically enhanced the production of NO(-2) in Mm1 by LPS. Furthermore, pretreatment with IL-6 (100 U/ml) shortened the lag time of induction. These results indicate that IL-6 is involved in the regulation of the NO(-2) production in macrophage-like cells.  相似文献

We studied the capacity of macrophage and B cell lines to provide a costimulatory signal that enhances synthesis of IFN-gamma and IL-2 by mouse Th1 clones stimulated with suboptimal doses of immobilized anti-CD3 antibody. The J774 macrophage line and the CH27 B lymphoma line had the greatest costimulatory activity and routinely increased IL-2 production by 10-fold to 100-fold. Other macrophage and B cell lines had less activity and T cell lines were unable to costimulate. The J774 and CH27 lines did not costimulate IL-4 production by a Th2 clone and had only a small effect on IL-2 production by T cell hybridomas. The process of costimulation was fixation-sensitive, contact-dependent and did not involve stable cytokines present in the T cell/accessory cell conditioned media. Neutralizing antibodies for IL-1, IL-6, and TNF failed to inhibit costimulation. Antibodies to the LFA-1/ICAM-1 pair of adhesion molecules also failed to inhibit. Costimulation of IL-2 production by accessory cells was found to have a unidirectional species restriction: mouse accessory cells costimulated mouse and human IL-2-producing T cells, but human U937 cells induced with PMA were effective only for human T cells. The results indicate that accessory cells can significantly regulate Th1 effector function at the level of cytokine production.  相似文献

Elevated Nuclear Factor κB (NF-κB) levels have been reported in multiple myeloma cells derived from patients relapsing after chemotherapy. In the search of an in vitro a model with molecular features similar to relapsing lesions, we focused our attention on an IL-6 autocrine human myeloma cell line (U266), characterized by apoptosis resistance due to up-regulation of two constitutive signaling pathways: NF-κB and STAT-3. NF-κB activity was inhibited with proteasome inhibitory agents, such as PS-341 and Withaferin A, with an IKK inhibitor (Wedelolactone) or with the adenoviral vector HD IκBαmut-IRES-EGFP encoding a mutant IκBα protein, resistant to proteasomal degradation. We observed that the NF-κB intracellular dislocation at the beginning of the treatment affected therapeutic effectiveness of PS-341, Withaferin A and Wedelolactone; interestingly, the adenoviral vector was highly effective in inducing apopotosis even with NF-κB being predominantly nuclear at the time of infection. We also observed that U266 treated with the Interleukin-6 antagonist Sant7 exhibited reduced STAT3 activity and preferential cytoplasmic NF-κB location; moreover they became capable of undergoing apoptosis mainly from the G1 phase. Adenoviral vector treated U266 have NF-κB localized completely in the cytoplasm and also showed down-regulation of nuclear phospho STAT-3. Finally, combined targeting of NF-κB and STAT3 signaling pathways was the most effective treatment in inducing apoptosis. These findings suggest that combined NF-κB κB and STAT3 targeting warrants further investigations in other apoptosis resistant MM cell lines as well as in suitable MM animal models.  相似文献
