Rosette-formation with auto- and allogeneic red blood cells was applied to detection of human leucocyte subpopulations interacting with Sendai virus (V-rosettes). It was shown that the majority of V-rosette-forming cells appeared to be monocytes. T lymphocytes did not take part in V-rosette-formation since selective elimination of T cells from the mononuclear cells population did not lead to reduction of but increased the number of V-rosettes. Enrichment of cell suspension with B lymphocytes was followed by a rise in the number of V-rosettes thereby allowing the attribution of B lymphocytes along with monocytes to the cell population interacting with virus. The results suggest that ability of virus-exposed immunocompetent cells to react with their own red blood cells may lie at the basis of the development of autoimmune hemolytic anemia and other autoimmune diseases.  相似文献

Concanavalin A-stimulated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells release a lymphocyte chemotactic factor. This lymphocyte chemotactic factor is produced optimally after 24 to 48 hr of culture and is not found before 3 hr of culture, which suggests that the factor is synthesized de novo and is not preformed and secreted after Con A stimulation. This is further supported by experiments showing that the protein synthesis inhibitors cycloheximide and puromycin totally prevent the production of the chemotactic factor. Experiments using cultured and uncultured T lymphocytes as responding cells show that cultured T cells respond more efficiently than uncultured T cells to this factor. Furthermore, the lymphocyte chemotactic factor preferentially stimulates T lymphocyte locomotion as compared to peripheral blood non-T lymphocyte migration. Fractionation of mononuclear cells into glass nonadherent lymphocytes, monocyte-enriched preparations, T lymphocytes, and non-T lymphocytes shows that lymphocyte chemotactic factor is produced by Con A-stimulated, glass nonadherent lymphocytes and T cells but not by monocytes or non-T lymphocytes. Further fractionation of T lymphocytes into Leu-2 and Leu-3 T cell subpopulations shows that the production of T lymphocyte chemotactic factor can be attributed to the Leu-2 suppressor/cytotoxic T cell subset. The generation of a T lymphocyte chemotactic factor by Leu-2 T cells may represent a means of recruiting other T cells to the site of its release.  相似文献

Interferon production by spleen cells from unimmunized C3H mice challenged in vitro with influenza virus AO/PR8 was investigated. Glass-nonadherent cells (lymphocytes) produced significant levels of interferon, although cocultivation of glass-adherent macrophages was needed for optimal production. Treatment of the cells with antithymocyte serum and complement markedly reduced the interferon production. When glass-nonadherent cells were fractionated on a nylon wool column, the T-cell-enriched fraction consistently produced more interferon than the B-cell-enriched fraction. It is concluded that T cells are an important producer of interferon in spleen cell cultures from normal mice upon challenge with influenza virus, although non-T cells (macrophages and B cells) also may produce interferon under suitable conditions.  相似文献

Human lung carcinoma cells persistently infected with mumps virus (Pc-10/MpV) were lysed with human peripheral blood mononuclear leukocytes (PBML) obtained from seropositive donors who had anti-mumps virus-neutralizing antibody in their sera. This cellular cytotoxicity was due not to the cytotoxic T lymphocytes but mainly to the non-T, non-B cells, possibly related to natural killer (NK) cells. Moreover, it was concerned not with antibody against mumps virus antigens but with alpha-interferon (IFN-alpha) produced in the mixture of human PBML and Pc-10/MpV cells, since this cellular cytotoxicity was suppressed by anti-human IFN-alpha rabbit serum. Exogeneous IFN-alpha augmented the cytotoxicity of non-T, non-B cells, not T cells, for the uninfected Pc-10 cells. IFN-gamma that had been induced by heat-killed Listeria monocytogenes in PBML had the same capacity to augment NK activity did IFN-alpha.  相似文献

Tumor necrosis factor induction by Sendai virus   总被引:31,自引:0,他引:31  
Supernatants of peripheral blood mononuclear leukocytes (PBMC) treated with Sendai virus were found to exert significant cytotoxic effects mediated by leukocyte-produced proteins distinct from interferon. Fractionation of the PBMC into adherent and nonadherent cells indicated that these virus-induced cytotoxins (CTX) were produced primarily in the mononuclear phagocytes. Cells of the monocyte-like U937 line pretreated with 4 beta-phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate could also be induced with Sendai virus to produce CTX. The nonadherent mononuclear cells of the peripheral blood responded poorly to the virus with regard to CTX production, even though they could be induced to produce CTX with phytohemagglutinin (PHA). With the use of monospecific antibodies to tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and to lymphotoxin (LT), it was found that TNF is the major CTX produced by PBMC and by the U937 cells after 24 hr stimulation by the virus, whereas LT is not induced under these conditions to any measurable extent. TNF was also found to be produced in significant amounts together with LT upon stimulation of the nonadherent fraction of the PBMC by PHA. These findings indicate that besides bacterial lipopolysaccharides, other biological agents including viruses can be effective inducers of tumor necrosis factor, suggesting implications regarding the physiologic role of this protein.  相似文献

We determined the luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence (CL) of fresh human monocytes and monocytes cultured for 1-14 days in vitro, within hydrophobic membranes, using a variety of stimuli known to trigger the respiratory burst of phagocytes. It was assured that CL emerged from an adherent subpopulation of mononuclear cells; polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) contaminating mononuclear leukocytes (MNL) contributed little, if anything, to the CL response of MNL. Typical response patterns were established for fresh monocytes triggered by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), zymosan, the Ca2+ ionophore A 23187, antibody-coated erythrocytes and Sendai virus. Differentiation in vitro into macrophages was associated with a general decrease in magnitude of the CL peak, in an overproportional decrease of the A23187 triggered response and in a complete loss of the response to Sendai virus--a loss which could not be prevented by addition of myeloperoxidase (MPO). In contrast to monocyte CL, macrophage CL was resistant to sodium azide, indicating its MPO-independent origin. Macrophage-type reactivity was obtained at day 4 of culture. Activation of macrophages with recombinant interferon-gamma for the last 2 days of culture was associated with a quantitative (approx. threefold) increase of the CL signal, although qualitatively the same reactivity pattern was obtained as with control macrophages. In contrast to luminol-dependent CL, the lucigenin-dependent CL response of macrophages was greater than that of monocytes, an increase which was particularly prominent for PMA stimulation.  相似文献

Other investigators have previously reported that TNF has been induced from macrophages by bacteria and, more recently, from NK cells by certain tumor cells. Sendai virus has also been reported to induce TNF from macrophages. We report here that an opportunistic fungi, Candida albicans, can also induce TNF, not only from human monocytes, but also from Percoll-fractionated large granular lymphocytes (LGL) which mediate NK function. Incubation of monocytes of LGL with C. albicans for 8 h was sufficient for detection of TNF release and peak induction was observed at 24 h. Induction of TNF from LGL did not require the participation of monocytes or T cells because treatment of the LGL with CD14 or CD15 to eliminate contaminating monocytes and CD3, CD4, or CD8 to eliminate contaminating T cells did not decrease the level of TNF produced from the treated LGL. Small T cells recovered from the denser fractions of the Percoll gradient had no ability to produce TNF, even when 10% monocytes were added to the T cells to provide accessory function. The phenotype of the TNF-producing LGL was CD2+, CD11+, CD16+, NKH1+, LEU7-. The TNF produced by both monocytes and LGL was neutralized by specific monoclonal and polyclonal anti-TNF but not by monoclonal antilymphotoxin. These results indicate that TNF production is a normal response of monocytes and LGL to stimulation by fungi such as C. albicans and that the release of TNF may be related to its ability to activate effector function to control Candida growth, which we have shown earlier for neutrophils with TNF.  相似文献

The binding of rough LPS (ReLPS from Salmonella minnesota R595) to human peripheral blood polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN), monocytes, and lymphocytes was examined by using fluorescein-labeled LPS and flow cytometry. At 4 degrees C, FITC-ReLPS bound rapidly in a concentration- and time-dependent way to PMN, monocytes, and lymphocytes. Because mononuclear cells showed both binding and nonbinding cell populations, FITC-ReLPS was used in conjunction with specific phycoerythrin-labeled mAb to identify these cell subpopulations. In contrast to T lymphocytes and NK cells, all monocytes and B lymphocytes efficiently bound FITC-ReLPS. PMN and monocytes showed two to three times more cell-associated FITC-ReLPS when cells were incubated at 37 degrees C compared with incubation at 4 degrees C. Binding of FITC-ReLPS to lymphocytes was similar for both 4 degrees C and 37 degrees C incubation conditions. In contrast to 4 degrees C, at 37 degrees C cell-associated LPS reflects surface-bound as well as internalized LPS, as demonstrated with fluorescence quenching of extracellular FITC-ReLPS by trypan blue. At 4 degrees C, binding of FITC-ReLPS was inhibited by polymyxin B. In addition, purified IgM mAb directed against hydrophobic acyl residues of ReLPS showed more than 95% inhibition of ReLPS binding to leukocytes, indicating the ability of specific mAb to prevent LPS-cell interactions necessary to exert biologic effects. The use of mAb, directed against different parts of the LPS molecule, provides an alternative method for LPS binding-inhibition studies.  相似文献

Previous studies have shown that supernatants from concanavalin A-stimulated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells and isolated Leu-2 suppressor/cytotoxic T cells are chemotactic for Leu-3 helper/inducer T cells. The current study shows that lymphocyte chemotactic factor (LCF) is also produced following antigen (tetanus toxoid) challenge of mononuclear cells obtained from recently immunized human donors. LCF was detected in 24-hr supernatants from mononuclear cells challenged with tetanus and was produced maximally at 48 hr. Tetanus toxoid challenge of mononuclear cells obtained from individuals whom had not received a tetanus immunization for 7 to 10 years prior to testing showed little or no production of LCF. Serial studies of these individuals following a tetanus booster immunization showed that LCF was produced by antigen-challenged mononuclear cells obtained 1-5 days postimmunization, was produced optimally 5-15 days postimmunization, and was still produced by antigen-challenged mononuclear cells obtained 6 weeks later. Fractionation of mononuclear cells from immunized donors into glass wool nonadherent lymphocytes, T lymphocytes, and non-T lymphocytes showed that tetanus-toxoid-induced LCF was produced by nonadherent lymphocytes and T cells but not non-T cells. Further fractionation of T lymphocytes into Leu-2 and Leu-3 T-cell subpopulations showed that LCF production by antigen-challenged isolated subpopulations was limited to the Leu-2 suppressor/cytotoxic T-cell subset. Characterization of both Con A and tetanus toxoid-induced LCF by gel filtration on Sephadex G-100 demonstrated the presence of two peaks of LCF corresponding to molecular weights of approximately 14,000-17,000 and 40,000-50,000.  相似文献

Human T lymphoblastoid cell (RPMI 8402 cell) produced interferon (IFN) through the induction by Sendai virus. The priming effect on the interferon production in the RPMI 8402 cell could be found by the pretreatment of human leukocyte IFN (Hu IFN-alpha), but not by that of the IFN produced in the RPMI 8402 cell (T-IFN). The superinduction by the irradiation of ultraviolet rays or the treatment of antimetabolites (actinomycin D and cycloheximide) or 5-bromodeoxyuridine was not found. The T-IFN was completely neutralized by the anti-Hu IFN-beta serum, but not by the anti-Hu IFN-alpha serum at all. In conclusion, it was confirmed that the IFN produced in the RPMI 8402 cell through the induction by Sendai virus was antigenically identical to Hu IFN-beta.  相似文献

The spontaneous production of interferon (IFN) in the cultures of peripheral blood mononuclear leukocytes (PBML) obtained from 30 patients with Beh?et's disease was investigated. PBML obtained from each of 26 patients in the convalescent stage and four patients in the exacerbation stage were cultured at least twice without stimulation, and IFN activity in the culture fluid 2 to 7 days after the cultivation was assayed. Twenty PBML of normal healthy donors were also cultured simultaneously. PBML of all patients in the convalescent stage spontaneously produced high-titered IFN (60.0 +/- 9.5 IU/ml), but IFN activity produced in PBML cultures of four patients in the exacerbation stage was very low or was undetectable. Similarly, IFN was always detectable in the circulation of the patients whose PBML spontaneously produced IFN. All IFN activity detected both in the circulation and in the fluid of PBML culture from these patients was gamma-IFN, defined by virtue of its acid lability and antigenicity neutralized with antiserum for gamma-IFN and not with antisera for alpha- and beta-IFN. The cellular source of this gamma-IFN in the patients' PMBL was T lymphocytes and not non-T cells or macrophages. T lymphocytes did not require the help of macrophages. It is suggested that T lymphocytes of these patients may be stimulated by unknown causative agents in vivo and may produce gamma-IFN in vivo as well as in in vitro culture of T lymphocytes.  相似文献

We have earlier demonstrated that a mixed population of immunologically specific killer cells, including cytotoxic T lymphocytes, non-T (“B”) lymphocytes and monocytes, infiltrate “sponge matrix” allografts at the peak of rejection on Day 8 after transplantation. We have now performed a sequential study covering both early and late stages of the rejection response. We demonstrate that the early infiltrating killer cells are sensitive to anti-Ø and anti-T cell serum plus complement treatment but the late killer cells are not. This finding indicates that the first cytotoxic host cells infiltrating the allograft are predominantly T lymphocytes, whereas as the rejection process proceeds also cytotoxic non-T (“B”) lymphocytes and monocytes are recruited to the site of inflammation.  相似文献

Interleukin-10 (IL-10), produced by Th2 helper T cells, B cells, and macrophages, can inhibit cytokine production by Th1 cells and enhance B-cell proliferation and differentiation. Here, we show that peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from bovine leukemia virus-infected animals with late-stage disease express considerably more IL-10 mRNA than animals that are not infected or that are in the early stages of disease. In contrast, the quantities of type 1 cytokines, IL-2 and gamma interferon, decrease with disease progression. In addition, we observed that IL-10 is expressed principally by monocytes/macrophages, not B lymphocytes, in persistently lymphocytotic animals. This observation supports a role for monocytes/macrophages in progression of bovine leukemia virus infection and, of importance, indicates that proliferating B cells are not the source of IL-10 expression. These findings suggest that IL-10 produced by monocytes/macrophages may influence the progression of bovine leukosis in animals that develop persistent lymphocytosis of B cells or B-cell lymphosarcoma.  相似文献

The mechanism of lymphocyte-mediated cytotoxicity to cells infected with measles virus was investigated. Cytotoxicity was measured in a direct assay, immediately after the isolation of lymphocytes from human peripheral blood; mononuclear leukocytes, infected with measles virus in vitro, served as autologous target cells. Virus-specific cytotoxicity required the presence of both IgG antibodies against measles virus and of effector lymphocytes. The effector lymphocytes had Fc receptors and were mainly present in a fraction of non-T lymphocytes. Monocytes were not cytotoxic but rather inhibitory. These results indicate that lysis of virus-infected cells in this direct assay is due to antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), caused by K cells. Control experiments showed that the virus-infected target cells were sensitive to incubation with human serum or IgG, resulting in a nonspecific increase of 51Cr release; however, this did not affect the results of K-cell cytotoxicity. Maximal virus-specific lysis by ADCC did not reach the level obtained by complement-dependent cytotoxicity. Possible explanations for this difference are discussed.  相似文献

African swine fever virus infected most, if not all, of the macrophages (monocytes) and ca. 4% of the polymorphonuclear leukocytes from porcine peripheral blood. B and T lymphocytes, either resting or stimulated with phytohemagglutinin, lipopolysaccharide, or pokeweed mitogen, were not susceptible to the virus. All of the mitogens used inhibited African swine fever multiplication in susceptible cells. The number of virus passages in vitro and the virulence degree of the virus did not affect the susceptibility of porcine B or T lymphocytes to African swine fever virus.  相似文献

B-like lymphoblastoid cell lines were obtained by long-term culture of human spleen leukocytes in RPMI 1640 medium containing human plasma fraction instead of whole foetal calf serum. These cell lines, which did not form E-rosettes had membrane immunoglobulins, and expressed Epstein-Barr virus antigens. Most synthesized intracytoplasmic immunoglobulins and were shown to be diploid and to remain so after subcultures. All produced interferon upon induction with Sendai virus.  相似文献

Human peripheral lymphocytes were separated from whole blood on a Ficoll-Hypaque gradient. They were then depleted of monocytes, separated into T and non-T fractions, and assayed for locomotor responses toward casein and endotoxin-activated serum in Boyden chambers. Non-T cells showed higher random motility than did T cells. Culture prior to assay was necessary in order to demonstrate locomotor activity of T cells, but this requirement, although desirable, was not essential for non-T lymphocytes. It was not necessary for Con A to be present in the culture medium or for either T or non-T lymphocytes to be in blast form to show locomotion.  相似文献

Numerous lymphoblastoid cell lines were established from human adult peripheral blood and cord blood lymphocytes, using Epstein Barr virus, and most cell lines from cord blood lymphocytes spontaneously produced abundant interferon without induction with Sendai virus, whereas lymphoblastoid cells from adult peripheral blood lymphocytes did not. These potential cells grow well in a newly developed serum-free culture medium based on Dulbecco's modified Eagle medium supplemented with non-essential amino acid, vitamins, nucleic acid derivatives, metal compounds, human transferrin, insulin and bovine or human serum albumin (Chon Fr.V). In serum-free medium, as well as in serum-containing conventional medium (RPMI-1640), the cells could also spontaneously produce interferon. The cells in the serum-free, culture could produce about 10 000 U/ml of interferon every day, harvesting the culture fluid and refeeding the cells with the fresh medium at the saturation cell density (107 cells/ml). The interferon proved to be α-type interferon on the basis of its physico-chemical and antigenic properties.  相似文献

Leukotriene B4 (LTB4) can regulate several lymphocyte functions, including the augmentation of cytotoxic activity and the induction of suppressor cells. When T lymphocytes were preincubated with picomolar concentrations of LTB4, they would suppress the proliferative response of unfractionated peripheral blood mononuclear leukocytes to concanavalin A in a subsequent co-culture system. Such a suppression did not occur when the responding population was depleted of monocytes. Furthermore, the effect was reversed to an enhancement when the responding unfractionated population was treated with indomethacin, suggesting a role for monocytes and cyclooxygenase products in the effector phase of LTB4-induced suppressor activity. When sorted into T4+ and T8+ cells before preincubation with LTB4, both T cell subsets could be induced by LTB4 to exert suppression. T4+ cells, however, required the presence of monocytes in the responder population in order to manifest suppressor activity, whereas T8+ cells were active even in the absence of monocytes. When LTB4-preincubated T cells or T4+ cells were sorted into T4+ and T8+ subsets after preincubation, suppressor cell activity was found only in the T8+ subset. Furthermore, T8+ cell-depleted T lymphocyte cultures, incubated for 24 hr with LTB4, showed a significant increase in the proportion of T8+ cells. Together, these data suggest that LTB4 induces suppressor T cells which can derive from either T4+ or T8+ subpopulations but which are phenotypically T8+ when exerting their suppressive activity. Thus, by interacting with both T4+ and T8+ lymphocytes, LTB4 can modulate immune responses with the cooperation of functionally competent accessory monocytes.  相似文献
