We have shown that ex vivo pre-conditioning of bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (DC) with low molecular weight hyaluronan (LMW HA) induces antitumor immunity against colorectal carcinoma (CRC) in mice. In the present study we investigated the effects of LMW HA priming on human-tumor-pulsed monocytes-derived dendritic cells (DC/TL) obtained from healthy donors and patients with CRC. LMW HA treatment resulted in an improved maturation state of DC/TL and an enhanced mixed leucocyte reaction activity in vivo. Importantly, pre-conditioning of DC/TL with LMW HA increased their ability to migrate and reduced their attraction to human tumor derived supernatants. These effects were associated with increased CCR7 expression levels in DC. Indeed, a significant increase in migratory response toward CCL21 was observed in LMW HA primed tumor-pulsed monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DC/TL/LMW HA) when compared to LWM HA untreated cells (DC/TL). Moreover, LMW HA priming modulated other mechanisms implicated in DC migration toward lymph nodes such as the metalloproteinase activity. Furthermore, it also resulted in a significant reduction in DC migratory capacity toward tumor supernatant and IL8 in vitro. Consistently, LMW HA dramatically enhanced in vivo DC recruitment to tumor-regional lymph nodes and reduced DC migration toward tumor tissue. This study shows that LMW HA –a poorly immunogenic molecule- represents a promising candidate to improve human DC maturation protocols in the context of DC-based vaccines development, due to its ability to enhance their immunogenic properties as well as their migratory capacity toward lymph nodes instead of tumors. 相似文献

Complex regulation of the wound healing process involves multiple interactions among stromal tissue cells, inflammatory cells, and the extracellular matrix. Low molecular weight hyaluronan (LMW HA) derived from the degradation of high molecular weight hyaluronan (HMW HA) is suggested to activate cells involved in wound healing through interaction with HA receptors. In particular, receptor CD44 is suggested to mediate cell response to HA of different MW, being the main cell surface HA receptor in stromal tissue and immune cells. However, the response of dermal fibroblasts, the key players in granulation tissue formation within the wound healing process, to LMW HA and their importance for the activation of immune cells is unclear. In this study we show that LMW HA (4.3 kDa) induced pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6 and chemokines IL-8, CXCL1, CXCL2, CXCL6 and CCL8 gene expression in normal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDF) that was further confirmed by increased levels of IL-6 and IL-8 in cell culture supernatants. Conversely, NHDF treated by HMW HA revealed a tendency to decrease the gene expression of these cytokine and chemokines when compared to untreated control. The blockage of CD44 expression by siRNA resulted in the attenuation of IL-6 and chemokines expression in LMW HA treated NHDF suggesting the involvement of CD44 in LMW HA mediated NHDF activation. The importance of pro-inflammatory mediators produced by LMW HA triggered NHDF was evaluated by significant activation of blood leukocytes exhibited as increased production of IL-6 and TNF-α. Conclusively, we demonstrated a pro-inflammatory response of dermal fibroblasts to LMW HA that was transferred to leukocytes indicating the significance of LMW HA in the inflammatory process development during the wound healing process. 相似文献

The identification of cytokine adjuvants capable of inducing an efficient mucosal immune response against viral pathogens has been long anticipated. Here, we attempted to identify the potential of tumor necrosis factor superfamily (TNFS) cytokines to function as mucosal vaccine adjuvants. Sixteen different TNFS cytokines were used to screen mucosal vaccine adjuvants, after which their immune responses were compared. Among the TNFS cytokines, intranasal immunization with OVA plus APRIL, TL1A, and TNF-α exhibited stronger immune response than those immunized with OVA alone. TL1A induced the strongest immune response and augmented OVA-specific IgG and IgA responses in serum and mucosal compartments, respectively. The OVA-specific immune response of TL1A was characterized by high levels of serum IgG1 and increased production of IL-4 and IL-5 from splenocytes of immunized mice, suggesting that TL1A might induce Th2-type responses. These findings indicate that TL1A has the most potential as a mucosal adjuvant among the TNFS cytokines. 相似文献

Persistent activation of STAT3 plays a major role in cancer progression and immune escape. Therefore, targeting STAT3 in tumors is essential to enhance/reactivate antitumor immune response. In our previous studies, we demonstrated the efficacy of stearic acid-modified polyethylenimine (PEI-StA) in promoting small interfering RNA (siRNA) silencing of STAT3 in B16.F10 melanoma in vitro and in vivo. In the current study, we examine the immunologic impact of this intervention. Toward this goal, the infiltration and activation of lymphocytes and dendritic cells (DCs) in the tumor mass were assessed using flow cytometry. Moreover, the levels of IFN-γ, IL-12, and TNF-α in homogenized tumor supernatants were determined. Moreover, mixed lymphocytes reaction using splenocytes of tumor-bearing mice was used to assess DC functionality on siRNA/lipopolyplexes intervention. Our results demonstrated up to an approximately fivefold induction in the infiltration of CD3(+) cells in tumor mass on STAT3 knockdown with high levels of CD4(+), CD8(+), and NKT cells. Consistently, DC infiltration in tumor milieu increased up to approximately fourfold. Those DCs were activated, in an otherwise suppressive microenvironment, as evidenced by a high expression of costimulatory molecules CD86 and CD40. ELISA analysis revealed a significant increase in IFN-γ, IL-12, and TNF-α. Moreover, mixed lymphocytes reaction demonstrated alloreactivity of these DCs as assessed by high T-cell proliferation and IL-2 production. Our results suggest a bystander immune response after local STAT3 silencing by siRNA. This strategy could be beneficial as an adjuvant therapy along with current cancer vaccine formulations. 相似文献

We previously demonstrated an immune-inflammatory response associated with increased expression of interleukin (IL)-β and fibronectin in graft coronary arteriopathy in piglets following heterotopic heart transplant. Further studies showed that increased endogenously produced IL-β was upregulating fibronectin production by donor coronary artery (CA) smooth muscle cells (SMC). Since co-induction of IL-β and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α has been shown in other systems, we investigated the possible interaction between these cytokines in regulating fibronectin production in CA SMC. First, we documented increased TNF-α expression in vivo in donor compared to host CA. Next, synthesis of fibronectin was measured in host and donor CA SMC following [35S]-methionine radiolabeling and gelatin-sepharose extraction. As previously shown with IL-β, increased donor CA SMC fibronectin synthesis was reduced to host levels in the presence of TNF-α antibodies, and exogenous TNF-α upregulated fibronectin synthesis in host CA SMC to levels in donor cells. In normal CA SMC, TNF-α-stimulated fibronectin production was downregulated to or below control levels in the presence of IL-β antibodies. Likewise, IL-β-stimulated fibronectin synthesis was downregulated to control levels when TNF-α neutralizing antibodies were added. Combining TNF-α and IL-β enhanced fibronectin production over that observed with either cytokine alone, but was not additive. Thus, our studies suggest that vascular SMC fibronectin synthesis is regulated by reciprocal induction of IL-β and TNF-α activity and provide the first demonstration of a ‘cytokine loop’ modulating matrix production. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Immunotherapy of malignant diseases mediated by dendritic cells (DC) pulsed with tumor antigens ex vivo is a promising new tool in the individual treatment of malignant diseases. The present study focuses on the problem of how to optimize in vitro culture conditions and induce the maturation of DC with the capacity to induce antitumor immunity toward leukemic cells. DC were generated from peripheral mononuclear cells by co-cultivation with granulocyte/macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interleukin-4 (IL-4). Tumor antigens were added for 2 h after 7 days in culture. Irradiated leukemic blasts, blast lysate, apoptotic cells from the Jurkat cell line (T ALL) and their lysate were used in various concentrations for antigen pulsing. Harvested DC were phenotyped by flow cytometry, and viability was assessed using trypan blue exclusion (Annexin test). After the cells had been pulsed with tumor antigens and co-cultured with autologous lymphocytes, the production of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and IL-12 was analyzed, and lymphocyte proliferative response and cytotoxicity against the target tumor cell line were assessed. The cultivation of monocytes under the described conditions led to the expression of surface markers typical of DC (i.e. CD83, CD86, HLA-DR, CD11c and CD40). Pulsation by antigens from leukemic cells further increased the cell populations expressing these markers. Antigen pulsation decreased the viability of generated DC depending on the increase in concentration of tumor antigens. Pulsed DC-lymphocyte interaction increased the proliferative response of lymphocytes and IFN-gamma production depending on the type of tumor antigens used for pulsation. The highest proliferative response was detected with DC pulsed with Jurkat cell-line lysate. Similarly to the proliferation assay, cytotoxic testing showed the highest efficiency of DC pulsed with Jurkat cell-line lysate in killing the target malignant cells. Our results show that an appropriate antigen concentration used for DC pulsing is one of the crucial factors in an effective treatment strategy, as high concentrations of tumor antigens induce apoptosis of DC, thereby rendering them non-functional. Under optimal conditions, pulsation by lysate from leukemic blasts induced the maturation of DC and led to an increase in the proliferation of autologous lymphocytes, to the production of Th1-cytokines and to the induction of cytotoxicity toward the leukemic cell line. These results are encouraging for the possible application of pulsed DC in the therapy of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. 相似文献

Prolactin (PRL) is a potent mitogen in cultured astrocytes. Because one of the major effects of astrocyte proliferation is the expression of inflammatory cytokines, we examined the effect of PRL-induced mitogenesis on the expression of interleukin-1 (IL-1α), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and transforming growth factor-α (TGF-α) in cultured astrocytes. Astrocytes were stimulated with PRL or growth hormone (GH), and the expression of cytokines was determined by immunohistochemistry and Western blot analysis. Following incubation of astrocytes with 1 nM PRL for 6 h, strong positive staining of IL-1α and TNF-α, but not TGF-α, was found. No detectable staining for the above cytokines was found in vehicle, or GH treated astrocytes. When astrocytes were incubated in the presence of 1 nM PRL for 18 h, strong positive staining for IL-1α and TGF-α was found. Immunocytochemical analysis of the expression of TNF-α and IL-1α in PRL stimulated astrocytes suggested that the expression of IL-1α preceded the expression of TNF-α. To confirm this observation, Western blot analyses were performed on extracts from astrocytes incubated with 1 nM PRL. In unstimulated astrocytes, IL-1α levels were not detectable. In astrocytes stimulated with 1 nM PRL, expression of IL-1α was clearly detected after 1 h of incubation, and IL-1α levels continued to increase during the course of the experiment (6 h). In contrast, in astrocytes stimulated with 1 nM PRL, an increase in the expression of TNF-α was first apparent after 2 h of incubation. TNF-α levels peaked 3 to 4 h after the addition of PRL, and returned to near control levels after 6 h. Finally, injection of PRL into a wound site in female rats increased the expression of glial fibrillary acid protein (GFAP), an astrocyte specific protein. These data suggest that PRL can stimulate astrogliosis at the wound site in vivo. These data clearly indicate that PRL can stimulate the expression of TNF-α and IL-1α in cultured astrocytes and suggest that PRL may play a role in the regulation of the neuroimmune response in vivo. 相似文献

Hyaluronan fragments act as an endogenous danger signal by engaging TLR2 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15

Upon tissue injury, high m.w. hyaluronan (HA), a ubiquitously distributed extracellular matrix component, is broken down into lower m.w. (LMW) fragments, which in turn activate an innate immune response. In doing so, LMW HA acts as an endogenous danger signal alerting the immune system of a breach in tissue integrity. In this report, we demonstrate that LMW HA activates the innate immune response via TLR-2 in a MyD88-, IL-1R-associated kinase-, TNFR-associated factor-6-, protein kinase Czeta-, and NF-kappaB-dependent pathway. Furthermore, we show that intact high m.w. HA can inhibit TLR-2 signaling. Finally, we demonstrate that LMW HA can act as an adjuvant promoting Ag-specific T cell responses in vivo in wild-type but not TLR-2(null) mice. 相似文献

Hyaluronan (HA) degradation produces small oligosaccharides that are able to increase pro-inflammatory cytokines in rheumatoid arthritis synovial fibroblasts (RASF) by activating both CD44 and the toll-like receptor 4 (TLR-4). CD44 and TLR-4 stimulation in turn activate the NF-kB that induces the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Degradation of HA occurs via two mechanisms: one exerted by reactive oxygen species (ROS) and one controlled by different enzymes in particular hyaluronidases (HYALs). We aimed to investigate the effects of inhibiting HA degradation (which prevents the formation of small HA fragments) on synovial fibroblasts obtained from normal DBA/J1 mice (NSF) and on synovial fibroblasts (RASF) obtained from mice subjected to collagen induced arthritis (CIA), both fibroblast types stimulated with tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α). TNF-α stimulation produced high mRNA expression and the related protein production of CD44 and TLR-4 in both NSF and RASF, and activation of NF-kB was also found in all fibroblasts. TNF-α also up-regulated the inflammatory cytokines, interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), and other pro-inflammatory mediators, such as matrix metalloprotease-13 (MMP-13), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), as well as HA levels and small HA fragment production. Treatment of RASF with antioxidants and specific HYAL1, HYAL2, and HYAL3 small interference RNA (siRNAs) significantly reduced TLR-4 and CD44 increase in the mRNA expression and the related protein synthesis, as well as the release of inflammatory mediators up-regulated by TNF-α. These data suggest that the inhibition of HA degradation during arthritis may contribute to reducing TLR-4 and CD44 activation and the inflammatory mediators response. 相似文献

ObjectiveThis study aims to dissect impacts of exosomes-delivered PD-L1 and CTLA-4 siRNAs on colorectal cancer (CRC) progression and immune responses.MethodsExosomes containing PD-L1 siRNA and CTLA-4 siRNA were prepared and utilized to treat CRC cells to evaluate their effects. A tumor-bearing mouse model was established for verification.ResultsExosomes containing PD-L1 siRNA and CTLA-4 siRNA repressed malignant features of CRC cells and restrained tumor growth and activated tumor immune responses in vivo. Co-culture of CRC cells treated with exosomes containing PD-L1 siRNA and CTLA-4 siRNA with human CD8+ T cells increased the percentage of CD8+ T cells, decreased the apoptotic rate of CD8+ T cells, elevated IL-2, IFN-γ, and TNF-α expression in cell supernatants, reduced adherent density of CRC cells, augmented the positive rate of CRC cells, and subdued tumor immune escape.ConclusionExosomes containing PD-L1 siRNA and CTLA-4 siRNA suppressed CRC progression and enhanced tumor immune responses. 相似文献

The increased intracranial pressure caused by brain edema following traumatic brain injury (TBI) always leads to poor patient prognosis. Aquaporin-4 (AQP-4) plays an important role in edema formation and resolution, which may provide a novel therapeutic target for edema treatment. In this present study, we found that propofol treatment, within a short time, after TBI significantly reduced brain edema in a controlled cortical injury rat model and suppressed in vivo expression of AQP-4. The ameliorating effect of propofol was associated with attenuated expression of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). In addition, the regulatory effect of propofol on AQP-4 expression was investigated in cultured astrocytes. Results showed that propofol could block the stimulatory effect of IL-1β and TNF-α on AQP-4 expression in cultured astrocytes. We also found that both NFκB and p38/MAPK pathways were involved in IL-1β and TNF-α-induced AQP-4 expression and that propofol functions as a dual inhibitor of NFκB and p38/MAPK pathways. In conclusion, treatment with propofol, within a short time, after TBI attenuates cerebral edema and reduces the expression of AQP-4. Propofol modulates acute AQP-4 expression by attenuating IL-1β and TNF-α expression and inhibiting IL-1β and TNF-α induced AQP-4 expression. 相似文献

TNF-α and its two receptors (TNFR1 and 2) are known to stimulate dendritic cell (DC) maturation and T cell response. However, the specific receptor and mechanisms involved in vivo are still controversial. In this study, we show that in response to an attenuated mouse hepatitis virus infection, DCs fail to mobilize and up-regulate CD40, CD80, CD86, and MHC class I in TNFR1(-/-) mice as compared with the wild-type and TNFR2(-/-) mice. Correspondingly, virus-specific CD8 T cell response was dramatically diminished in TNFR1(-/-) mice. Adoptive transfer of TNFR1-expressing DCs into TNFR1(-/-) mice rescues CD8 T cell response. Interestingly, adoptive transfer of TNFR1-expressing naive T cells also restores DC mobilization and maturation and endogenous CD8 T cell response. These results show that TNFR1, not TNFR2, mediates TNF-α stimulation of DC maturation and T cell response to mouse hepatitis virus in vivo. They also suggest two mechanisms by which TNFR1 mediates TNF-α-driven DC maturation, as follows: a direct effect through TNFR1 expressed on immature DCs and an indirect effect through TNFR1 expressed on naive T cells. 相似文献

Twenty-four patients with metastatic cancer received two cycles of four daily immunizations with monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DC). DC were incubated with preheated autologous tumor lysate and subsequently with IFN-α, TNF-α, and polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid to attain type 1 maturation. One DC dose was delivered intranodally, under ultrasound control, and the rest intradermally in the opposite thigh. Cyclophosphamide (day -7), GM-CSF (days 1-4), and pegIFN alpha-2a (days 1 and 8) completed each treatment cycle. Pretreatment with cyclophosphamide decreased regulatory T cells to levels observed in healthy subjects both in terms of percentage and in absolute counts in peripheral blood. Treatment induced sustained elevations of IL-12 in serum that correlated with the output of IL-12p70 from cultured DC from each individual. NK activity in peripheral blood was increased and also correlated with the serum concentration of IL-12p70 in each patient. Circulating endothelial cells decreased in 17 of 18 patients, and circulating tumor cells markedly dropped in 6 of 19 cases. IFN-γ-ELISPOT responses to DC plus tumor lysate were observed in 4 of 11 evaluated cases. Tracing DC migration with [(111)In] scintigraphy showed that intranodal injections reached deeper lymphatic chains in 61% of patients, whereas with intradermal injections a small fraction of injected DC was almost constantly shown to reach draining inguinal lymph nodes. Five patients experienced disease stabilization, but no objective responses were documented. This combinatorial immunotherapy strategy is safe and feasible, and its immunobiological effects suggest potential activity in patients with minimal residual disease. A randomized trial exploring this hypothesis is currently ongoing. 相似文献

The release of inflammatory cytokines, namely tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), plays an important role in the pathogenesis of cardiomyopathy. TNF-α increases in plasma and in myocardium of heart failure patients. We aimed to investigate the role of TNF-α inhibitor (infliximab; IFX) in regulating dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) induced in rats. DCM was induced in rats by doxorubicin (DOX; 3.5 mg. kg−1, i.p) twice weekly for 3 weeks (21 mg. kg−1 cumulative dose). DCM rats were treated with RPL (1 mg. kg−1 orally, daily), IFX (5 mg. kg−1; i.p. once) or their combination for 4 weeks starting next day of last DOX dose. Echocardiography was conducted followed by a collection of blood and left ventricle (LV) for biochemical and histological investigations. DCM rats revealed deteriorated cardiac function (increased CK-MB activity, LVIDs, LVIDd, ESV, and EDV, while decreased EF% and FS%), hypertrophy (increased HW/TL, β-MHC, and α-actin), inflammation (increased IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α). The activation of Wnt/β-catenin along with increased gene expression of RAS components (RENIN, ACE, and AT1) were evident. LV architecture also revealed abnormalities and some degree of fibrosis. Treatment with RPL and/or IFX suppressed TNF-α and consequently improved most of these parameters suppressing Wnt/β-catenin/RAS axis. Combined RPL and IFX treatment was the best among all treatments. In conclusion, Wnt/β-catenin/RAS axis is implicated in DOX-induced cardiomyopathy. The upstream TNF-α was proved for the first time in-vivo to stimulate this axis where its inhibition by RPL or IFX prevented DCM. Targeting this axis at two points using RPL and IFX showed better therapeutic efficacy. 相似文献

"Cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) induces a systemic inflammatory response syndrome that may contribute to postoperative morbidity and mortality. We investigated the in-flammatory responses to colloids compared to crystalloid priming in cardiac surgery patients with cardiopulmonary bypass. Thirty patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) preparing for CPB were randomized into Ringer's solution (RS), 10% hydroxyethyl starch (HES) or 25% human albumin (HA) group. Serum concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1 β (IL-1β ), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) were measured before CPB, at the end of CPB and 1, 6 and 12 h after CPB. Serum C-reactive protein (CRP) was determined pre-operatively and then daily for 2 days. Body-weight gain was significantly decreased on the day after surgery in the HES group than in the RS group. Volume priming in CPB for CABG patients using HA or HES preparation had less tendency for intense inflammatory response with lower levels of TNF-α, IL-1 β , IL-6 and higher levels of IL-10 compared to patients treated with RS. HES prime had lower levels of circulating CRP than in patients treated with HA or Ringer prime on the second post-operative day. Our data indicate that volume priming using colloid during CPB in CABG patients might exert beneficial effects on inflammatory responses." 相似文献

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) accelerate regeneration of ischemic or injured tissues by stimulation of angiogenesis through a paracrine mechanism. Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)-activated MSCs secrete pro-angiogenic cytokines, including IL-6 and IL-8. In the present study, using an ischemic hindlimb animal model, we explored the role of IL-6 and IL-8 in the paracrine stimulation of angiogenesis and tissue regeneration by TNF-α-activated MSCs. Intramuscular injection of conditioned medium derived from TNF-α-treated MSCs (TNF-α CM) into the ischemic hindlimb resulted in attenuated severe limb loss and stimulated blood perfusion and angiogenesis in the ischemic limb. Immunodepletion of IL-6 and IL-8 resulted in attenuated TNF-α CM-stimulated tissue repair, blood perfusion, and angiogenesis. In addition, TNF-α CM induced migration of human cord blood-derived endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) through IL-6- and IL-8-dependent mechanisms in vitro. Intramuscular injection of TNF-α CM into the ischemic limb led to augmented homing of tail vein-injected EPCs into the ischemic limb in vivo and immunodepletion of IL-6 or IL-8 from TNF-α CM attenuated TNF-α CM-stimulated homing of EPCs. In addition, intramuscular injection of recombinant IL-6 and IL-8 proteins resulted in increased homing of intravenously transplanted EPCs into the ischemic limb and improved blood perfusion in vivo. These results suggest that TNF-α CM stimulates angiogenesis and tissue repair through an increase in homing of EPCs through paracrine mechanisms involving IL-6 and IL-8. 相似文献

Obesity is often associated with insulin resistance, low-grade systemic inflammation, and reduced plasma adiponectin. Inflammation is also increased in adipose tissue, but it is not clear whether the reductions of adiponectin levels are related to dysregulation of insulin activity and/or increased proinflammatory mediators. In this study, we investigated the interactions of insulin, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin 6 (IL-6) in the regulation of adiponectin production using in vivo and in vitro approaches. Plasma adiponectin and parameters of insulin resistance and inflammation were assessed in a cohort of lean and obese insulin-resistant subjects. In addition, the effect of insulin was examined in vivo using the hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp, and in adipose tissue (AT) cultures. Compared with lean subjects, the levels of total adiponectin, and especially the high-molecular-weight (HMW) isomer, were abnormally low in obese insulin-resistant subjects. The hyperinsulinemic clamp data confirmed the insulin-resistant state in the obese patients and showed that insulin infusion significantly increased the plasma adiponectin in lean but not obese subjects (P < 0.01). Similarly, insulin increased total adiponectin release from AT explants of lean and not obese subjects. Moreover, expression and secretion of TNF-α and IL-6 increased significantly in AT of obese subjects and were negatively associated with expression and secretion of adiponectin. In 3T3-L1 and human adipocyte cultures, insulin strongly enhanced adiponectin expression (2-fold) and secretion (3-fold). TNF-α, and not IL-6, strongly opposed the stimulatory effects of insulin. Intriguingly, the inhibitory effect of TNF-α was especially directed toward the HMW isomer of adiponectin. In conclusion, these studies show that insulin upregulates adiponectin expression and release, and that TNF-α opposes the stimulatory effects of insulin. A combination of insulin resistance and increased TNF-α production could explain the decline of adiponectin levels and alterations of isomer composition in plasma of obese insulin-resistant subjects. 相似文献

Plasma levels of YKL-40 are elevated in patients with systemic infection, inflammatory disorders and cancer. Both monocytes/macrophages, neutrophils, and cancer cells have the capacity to produce YKL-40, but the regulation during the inflammatory response is unknown. To study the possible role of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α in the regulation of YKL-40 plasma levels, we included healthy men, who received either recombinant human (rh)IL-6 (n=6), rhTNF-α (n=8) or vehicle (n=7) for 3h. The plasma levels of IL-6 and TNF-α reached ~ 150 and ~ 18 pg/ml, respectively, during the infusions. Following the IL-6 infusion, the plasma level of YKL-40 increased from ~ 30 to ~ 57 ng/ml (p<0.05) at 24h, and returned to normal values after 48 h. The plasma level of YKL-40 did not change during TNF-α infusion or infusion of vehicle. These data demonstrate that IL-6, but not TNF-α, has a key-role in the regulation of plasma YKL-40 levels during inflammation. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Newborn resuscitation with 100% oxygen is associated with oxidative-nitrative stresses and inflammation. The mechanisms are unclear. Hyaluronan (HA) is fragmented to low molecular weight (LMW) by oxidative-nitrative stresses and can promote inflammation. We examined the effects of 100% oxygen resuscitation and treatment with the antioxidant, N-acetylcysteine (NAC), on lung 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT), LMW HA, inflammation, TNFα and IL1? in a newborn pig model of resuscitation. METHODS & PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Newborn pigs (n?=?40) were subjected to severe asphyxia, followed by 30 min ventilation with either 21% or 100% oxygen, and were observed for the subsequent 150 minutes in 21% oxygen. One 100% oxygen group was treated with NAC. Serum, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), lung sections, and lung tissue were obtained. Asphyxia resulted in profound hypoxia, hypercarbia and metabolic acidosis. In controls, HA staining was in airway subepithelial matrix and no 3-NT staining was seen. At the end of asphyxia, lavage HA decreased, whereas serum HA increased. At 150 minutes after resuscitation, exposure to 100% oxygen was associated with significantly higher BAL HA, increased 3NT staining, and increased fragmentation of lung HA. Lung neutrophil and macrophage contents, and serum TNFα and IL1? were higher in animals with LMW than those with HMW HA in the lung. Treatment of 100% oxygen animals with NAC blocked nitrative stress, preserved HMW HA, and decreased inflammation. In vitro, peroxynitrite was able to fragment HA, and macrophages stimulated with LMW HA increased TNFα and IL1? expression. CONCLUSIONS & SIGNIFICANCE: Compared to 21%, resuscitation with 100% oxygen resulted in increased peroxynitrite, fragmentation of HA, inflammation, as well as TNFα and IL1? expression. Antioxidant treatment prevented the expression of peroxynitrite, the degradation of HA, and also blocked increases in inflammation and inflammatory cytokines. These findings provide insight into potential mechanisms by which exposure to hyperoxia results in systemic inflammation. 相似文献
