To determine the distribution of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor (EGFR) on the surface of cells responding to EGF as a chemoattractant, an EGFR-green fluorescent protein chimera was expressed in the MTLn3 mammary carcinoma cell line. The chimera was functional and easily visualized on the cell surface. In contrast to other studies indicating that the EGFR might be localized to certain regions of the plasma membrane, we found that the chimera is homogeneously distributed on the plasma membrane and becomes most concentrated in vesicles after endocytosis. In spatial gradients of EGF, endocytosed receptor accumulates on the upgradient side of the cell. Visualization of the binding of fluorescent EGF to cells reveals that the affinity properties of the receptor, together with its expression level on cells, can provide an initial amplification step in spatial gradient sensing. 相似文献

The cytoskeleton is a cellular network of structural, adaptor and signalling molecules that regulates most cellular functions that are related to the immune response, including migration, extravasation, antien recognition, activation and phagocytosis by different subsets of leukocytes. Recently, a large number of regulatory elements and structural constituents of the leukocyte cytoskeleton have been identified. In this review, we discuss the composition and regulation of the different cytoskeletal elements and their role in immune responses. 相似文献

Changes in running mechanics and spring-mass behavior due to fatigue induced by a mountain ultra-marathon race (MUM, 166km, total positive and negative elevation of 9500m) were studied in 18 ultra-marathon runners. Mechanical measurements were undertaken pre- and 3h post-MUM at 12km h(-1) on a 7m long pressure walkway: contact (t(c)), aerial (t(a)) times, step frequency (f), and running velocity (v) were sampled and averaged over 5-8 steps. From these variables, spring-mass parameters of peak vertical ground reaction force (F(max)), vertical downward displacement of the center of mass (Δz), leg length change (ΔL), vertical (k(vert)) and leg (k(leg)) stiffness were computed. After the MUM, there was a significant increase in f (5.9±5.5%; P<0.001) associated with reduced t(a) (-18.5±17.4%; P<0.001) with no change in t(c), and a significant decrease in both Δz and F(max) (-11.6±10.5 and -6.3±7.3%, respectively; P<0.001). k(vert) increased by 5.6±11.7% (P=0.053), and k(leg) remained unchanged. These results show that 3h post-MUM, subjects ran with a reduced vertical oscillation of their spring-mass system. This is consistent with (i) previous studies concerning muscular structure/function impairment in running and (ii) the hypothesis that these changes in the running pattern could be associated with lower overall impact (especially during the braking phase) supported by the locomotor system at each step, potentially leading to reduced pain during running. 相似文献

Systemic vs. local cytokine and leukocyte responses to unilateral wrist flexion exercise. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Dan Nemet Suzi Hong Paul J Mills Michael G Ziegler Maryann Hill Dan M Cooper 《Journal of applied physiology》2002,93(2):546-554
We hypothesized that brief exercise of a small muscle group would lead to local rather than systemic alterations in cytokines, peripheral blood mononuclear cells, and mediators of angiogenesis. Fifteen men and eight women (age range 22-36 yr old) performed 10 min of unilateral wrist flexion exercise. Blood was sampled from venous catheters in the resting and exercising arm at baseline, at the end of exercise, and at 10, 30, 60, and 120 min after exercise. Lactate was significantly elevated in the exercising arm (+276 +/- 35%; P < 0.0005) with no change in the resting arm. In contrast, increases in both arms were observed for interleukin-6 (+139 +/- 51%; P < 0.0005), growth hormone (+1,104 +/- 284%; P < 0.003), natural killer cells (+81 +/- 9%; P < 0.0005), and lymphocytes expressing CD62L, CD11a, and CD54. There were no significant differences in these increases between the resting and exercising arm. Catecholamines increased in both arms [epinephrine peak increase, +226 +/- 36% (P < 0.001); norepinephrine peak increase, +90 +/- 15% (P < 0.01)]. Fibroblast growth factor-2 initially decreased with exercise in both arms, and this was followed by a rebound increase. Vascular endothelial growth factor demonstrated a small but significant increase in both arms (+124 +/- 31%; P < 0.05). Brief, low-intensity exercise leads to a systemic rather than local response of mediators that could be involved in inflammation, repair, or angiogenic adaptation to physical activity. 相似文献

Cyclophilin, the cyclosporin A binding protein and member of the immunophilin family of proteins, demonstrates leukocyte chemotactic activity. In this study we demonstrate that FKBP, the FK506 and rapamycin binding protein, also displays leukocyte chemotactic activity. The chemotactic activity of FKBP is inhibited by FK506, however, FK506 was unable to inhibit cyclophilin-stimulated chemotactic activity. Rapamycin was unable to prevent the chemotactic activity of FKBP, similarly, the CsA analogue Me6Ala-CsA while displaying cyclophilin binding was unable to block cyclophilin-stimulated chemotactic activity. These results suggest that in addition to their intracellular role the immunophilins may also function as chemotactic agents, furthermore this activity is modulated by immunosuppressants. 相似文献

Interleukin-8, a chemotactic and inflammatory cytokine. 总被引:22,自引:0,他引:22
Interleukin-8 (IL-8) belongs to a family of small, structurally related cytokines similar to platelet factor 4. It is produced by phagocytes and mesenchymal cells exposed to inflammatory stimuli (e.g., interleukin-1 or tumor necrosis factor) and activates neutrophils inducing chemotaxis, exocytosis and the respiratory burst. In vivo, IL-8 elicits a massive neutrophil accumulation at the site of injection. Five neutrophil-activating cytokines similar to IL-8 in structure and function have been identified recently. IL-8 and the related cytokines are produced in several tissues upon infection, inflammation, ischemia, trauma etc., and are thought to be the main cause of local neutrophil accumulation. 相似文献

AimsTo investigate the mechanism by which platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1 (PECAM-1/CD31), an immunoglobulin (Ig)-superfamily cell adhesion and signaling receptor, regulates pro-inflammatory cytokine levels. The purpose of the present investigation was to test the hypothesis that PECAM-1 influences circulating cytokine levels by regulating the trafficking of activated, cytokine-producing leukocytes to sites of inflammation.Main methodsPECAM-1+/+ and PECAM-1?/? mice were subjected to lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced endotoxemia, and systemic cytokine levels were measured by Bioplex multiplex cytokine assays. Flow cytometry was employed to enumerate leukocytes at inflammatory sites and to measure cytokine synthesis in leukocyte sub-populations. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure cytokine levels in tissue samples and in supernatants of in vitro-stimulated leukocytes.Key findingsWe confirmed earlier reports that mice deficient in PECAM-1 had greater systemic levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines following intraperitoneal (IP) LPS administration. Interestingly, expression of PECAM-1, in mice, had negligible effects on the level of cytokine synthesis by leukocytes stimulated in vitro with LPS and in peritoneal macrophages isolated from LPS-injected mice. There was, however, excessive accumulation of macrophages and neutrophils in the lungs of PECAM-1-deficient, compared with wild-type, mice — an event that correlated with a prolonged increase in lung pro-inflammatory cytokine levels.SignificanceOur results demonstrate that PECAM-1 normally functions to dampen systemic cytokine levels during LPS-induced endotoxemia by diminishing the accumulation of cytokine-producing leukocytes at sites of inflammation, rather than by modulating cytokine synthesis by leukocytes. 相似文献

TNF-alpha has numerous biological activities, including the induction of chemokine expression, and is involved in many gastric injuries. C-C chemokines [monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP)-1 and macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1alpha] and C-X-C chemokines [MIP-2 and cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant (CINC)-2alpha] mediate chemotaxis of monocytes and neutrophils, respectively. We examined the roles of TNF-alpha and dynamics of chemokine expression in gastric ulceration including ulcer recurrence and indomethacin-induced injury. Rats with healed chronic gastric ulcers received intraperitoneal TNF-alpha to induce ulcer recurrence. Some rats were given neutralizing antibodies against neutrophils or MCP-1 together with TNF-alpha. In a separate experiment, rats were orally administered 20 mg/kg indomethacin with or without pretreatment with pentoxifylline (an inhibitor of TNF-alpha synthesis) or anti-MCP-1 antibody. TNF-alpha (1 microg/kg) induced gastric ulcer recurrence after 48 h, which was completely prevented by anti-neutrophil antibody. TNF-alpha increased the number of macrophages and MCP-1 mRNA expression in scarred mucosa from 4 h, whereas it increased MPO activities (marker of neutrophil infiltration) and mRNA expression of MIP-2 and CINC-2alpha from 24 h. Anti-MCP-1 antibody inhibited leukocyte infiltration with reduction of the levels of C-X-C chemokines and prevented ulcer recurrence. Indomethacin treatment increased TNF-alpha/chemokine mRNA expression from 30 min and induced macroscopic erosions after 4 h. Pentoxifylline inhibited the indomethacin-induced gastric injury with reduction of neutrophil infiltration and expression of chemokine (MCP-1, MIP-2, and CINC-2alpha). Anti-MCP-1 antibody also inhibited the injury and these inflammatory responses but did not affect TNF-alpha mRNA expression. In conclusion, increased MCP-1 triggered by TNF-alpha may play a key role in gastric ulceration by regulating leukocyte recruitment and chemokine expression. 相似文献

Macrophages are important effector cells in cell-mediated immunity against intracellular infection. Among cytokines that macrophages are able to release are IL-12 and TNF alpha. IL-12 is a critical linker between the innate and adaptive cell-mediated immunity, capable of Th1 differentiation and IFN gamma release by T and NK cells. IFN gamma is critically required for the activation of macrophage bactericidal activities. Recently emerging evidence suggests that macrophages are able to release not only IL-12 and TNF alpha but also IFN gamma. However, the mechanisms that control the release of each of these type 1 cytokines in macrophages appear different. While macrophages release TNF alpha in an indiscriminate and IL-12-independent way, the release of IL-12, particularly bioactive IL-12 p70, and IFN gamma is under tight control. We are just beginning to understand what controls the release of IL-12 p70, a question of fundamental importance to understanding the mechanisms underlying the initiation of cell-mediated immunity. Our recent findings have shed more insights into the regulatory mechanisms of macrophage IFN gamma responses. It has become evident that IL-12 is required not only for Th1 differentiation but also for IFN gamma responses by both T cells and macrophages during intracellular infection. In this overview, we have discussed about the current understanding of the regulation of macrophage type 1 cytokine responses during intracellular infection, based upon the recent findings from us and others. 相似文献

Interleukin 12 and the regulation of CD4+ T-cell subset responses during murine Leishmaniasis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Heinzel FP 《Parasitology today (Personal ed.)》1994,10(5):190-192
Interleukin 12 is unique among cytokines in that it is capable of protecting genetically susceptible mice against progressive infection with Leishmania major. Because of the probable causal relationships between CD4(+) T-cell differentiation, cytokine production and disease outcome, this cytokine may prove useful as a component of cytokine-bosed therapies and Thl-selective vaccines, as discussed here by Frederick Heinzel. 相似文献

Carbohydrate and the cytokineresponse to 2.5 h of running. J. Appl.Physiol. 82(5): 1662-1667, 1997.This randomized,double-blind, placebo-controlled study was designed to determine theinfluence of 6% carbohydrate (C) vs. placebo (P) beverage ingestion oncytokine responses (5 total samples over 9 h) to 2.5 h ofhigh-intensity running (76.7 ± 0.4% maximalO2 uptake) by 30 experiencedmarathon runners. For interleukin-6 (IL-6), a difference in the patternof change between groups was found, highlighted by a greater increasein P vs. C immediately postrun (753 vs. 421%) and 1.5 h postrun (193 vs. 86%) [F(4,112) = 3.77, P = 0.006]. Forinterleukin-1-receptor antagonist (IL-1ra), a difference in the patternof change between groups was found, highlighted by a greater increasein P vs. C 1.5 h postrun (231 vs. 72%)[F(2,50) = 6.38, P = 0.003]. No significant interaction effects were seen for bioactive IL-6 or IL-1. The immediate postrun plasma glucose concentrations correlated negatively with those of plasma cortisol (r = 0.67, P < 0.001); postrun plasma cortisol (r = 0.70, P < 0.001) and IL-6 levels(r = 0.54, P = 0.003) correlated positively withlevels of IL-1ra. Taken together, the data indicate that carbohydrateingestion attenuates cytokine levels in the inflammatory cascade inresponse to heavy exertion. 相似文献

Changing stride frequency may influence oxygen uptake and heart rate during running as a function of running economy and central command. This study investigated the influence of stride frequency manipulation on thermoregulatory responses during endurance running. Seven healthy endurance runners ran on a treadmill at a velocity of 15 km/h for 60 min in a controlled environmental chamber (ambient temperature 27 °C and relative humidity 50%), and stride frequency was manipulated. Stride frequency was intermittently manipulated by increasing and decreasing frequency by 10% from the pre-determined preferred frequency. These periods of increase or decrease were separated by free frequency running in the order of free stride frequency, stride frequency manipulation (increase or decrease), free stride frequency, and stride frequency manipulation (increase or decrease) for 15 min each. The increased and decreased stride frequencies were 110% and 91% of the free running frequency, respectively (196±6, 162±5, and 178±5 steps/min, respectively, P<0.01). Compared to the control, stride frequency manipulation did not affect rectal temperature, heart rate, or the rate of perceived exhaustion during running. Whole-body sweat loss increased significantly when stride frequency was manipulated (1.48±0.11 and 1.57±0.11 kg for control and manipulated stride frequencies, respectively, P<0.05), but stride frequency had a small effect on sweat loss overall (Cohen's d=0.31). A higher mean skin temperature was also observed under mixed frequency conditions compared to that in the control (P<0.05). While the precise mechanisms underlying these changes remain unknown (e.g. running economy or central command), our results suggest that manipulation of stride frequency does not have a large effect on sweat loss or other physiological variables, but does increase mean skin temperature during endurance running. 相似文献

A number of blood biochemical parameters, including the activities of the plasma enzymes creatine kinase (CK), aspartate aminotransferase (ASAT), lactate dehydrogenase and alkaline phosphatase, were measured in 23 athletes before, and immediately after a 56-km running race. Of the 23 athletes, 18 had previously completed standard 42-km marathon or longer (up to 90-km) ultra-marathon races, whereas not one of the other five athletes had previously run in a long-distance race. After the race, plasma CK and ASAT activities had both risen at least 280% more in the novice runners despite their much slower mean running speed (9.8 +/- 0.4 vs. 13.8 +/- 0.3 hm/h). There were no other inter-group differences in the absolute levels of the other measured biochemical parameters, although the rise in plasma calcium during the race was significantly greater in the experienced marathon runners. This study shows that either higher levels of training, or previous ultra-marathon racing experience, or both, is associated with lower immediate post-exercise levels of plasma enzyme activity. This is compatible with the finding that physical training reduces post-exercise plasma enzyme levels. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of dehydration at a controlled relative intensity on physiological responses and trail running speed. Using a randomized, controlled crossover design in a field setting, 14 male and female competitive, endurance runners aged 30 ± 10.4 years completed 2 (hydrated [HY] and dehydrated [DHY]) submaximal trail runs in a warm environment. For each trial, the subjects ran 3 laps (4 km per lap) on trails with 4-minute rests between laps. The DHY were fluid restricted 22 hours before the trial and during the run. The HY arrived euhydrated and were given water during rest breaks. The subjects ran at a moderate pace matched between trials by providing pacing feedback via heart rate (HR) throughout the second trial. Gastrointestinal temperature (T(GI)), HR, running time, and ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) were monitored. Percent body mass (BM) losses were significantly greater for DHY pretrial (-1.65 ± 1.34%) than for HY (-0.03 ± 1.28%; p < 0.001). Posttrial, DHY BM losses (-3.64 ± 1.33%) were higher than those for HY (-1.38 ± 1.43%; p < 0.001). A significant main effect of T(GI) (p = 0.009) was found with DHY having higher T(GI) postrun (DHY: 39.09 ± 0.45°C, HY: 38.71 ± 0.45°C; p = 0.030), 10 minutes post (DHY: 38.85 ± 0.48°C, HY: 38.46 ± 0.46°C; p = 0.009) and 30 minutes post (DHY: 38.18 ± 0.41°C, HY: 37.60 ± 0.25°C; p = 0.000). The DHY had slower run times after lap 2 (p = 0.019) and lap 3 (p = 0.025). The DHY subjects completed the 12-km run 99 seconds slower than the HY (p = 0.027) subjects did. The RPE in DHY was slightly higher than that in HY immediately postrun (p = 0.055). Controlling relative intensity in hypohydrated runners resulted in slower run times, greater perceived effort, and elevated T(GI), which is clinically meaningful for athletes using HR as a gauge for exercise effort and performance. 相似文献

Malaria and helminth infections are two of the most prevalent parasitic diseases globally. While concomitant infection is common, mechanisms contributing to altered disease outcomes during co-infection remain poorly defined. We have previously reported exacerbation of normally non-lethal Plasmodium yoelii malaria in BALB/c mice chronically infected with the intestinal trematode Echinostoma caproni. The goal of the present studies was to determine the effect of helminth infection on IFN-γ and other key cytokines during malaria co-infection in the P. yoelii-E. caproni and P. yoelii-Heligmosomoides polygyrus model systems. Polyclonally stimulated spleen cells from both E. caproni- and H. polygyrus-infected mice produced significantly lower amounts of IFN-γ during P. yoelii co-infection than malaria-only infected mice. Furthermore, the magnitude of IFN-γ suppression was correlated with the relative amounts of IL-4 induced by these helminths (E. caproni = low; H. polygyrus = high), but not IL-10. Concurrent malaria infection also suppressed helminth-associated IL-4 responses, indicating that immunologic counter-regulation occurs during co-infection with malaria and intestinal helminths. 相似文献

Cytokineplasts (CKP) are motile, membrane-bound, anucleate, granule-poor cytoplasmic fragments that are induced from human blood polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) by the brief application of heat. We examined CKP with respect to specific chemotactic and capping responses, the presence of the N-formyl-peptide chemotactide receptor, and evidence of respiratory burst activity and compared them with CB-cytoplasts, which are fragments created by the centrifugation of cytochalasin B (CB)-treated PMN at high speeds. Under agarose, CKP responded chemotactically to both N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fmlp) and zymosan-activated serum; CB-cytoplasts responded to neither chemoattractant. Despite the functional differences, both fragments retained N-formyl-peptide receptors as measured by affinity labeling with N-formyl-norleu-leu-phe-norleu-125I-tyr-lys and autoradiography of dried SDS-PAGE gels. For studies of capping we used a murine monoclonal antibody, PMN7C3, which binds a specific, widely distributed membrane component of intact PMN, and on warming, promptly induces capping of ligand-receptor complexes. Rhodamine-conjugated PMN7C3 at 4 degrees C labeled the surface of CKP homogeneously. As the CKP warmed to 37 degrees C, label became concentrated in small fluorescent caps at the rear of migrating fragments. Although CB-cytoplasts also bound the fluorochromed antibody homogeneously in the cold, on warming they were unable to concentrate the label normally. With respect to respiratory burst activity, the situation in the two fragments was reversed: CKP did not generate superoxide anion when stimulated either with phorbol myristate acetate or with fmlp after pretreatment with CB; CB-cytoplasts, as noted earlier by other investigators, did. These two types of cytoplasts with markedly different capabilities have complementary roles in the analysis of PMN function. 相似文献

The sudden emergence of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) has boosted research on innate immune responses to coronaviruses. It is now well established that the causative agent, a newly identified coronavirus termed SARS-CoV, employs multiple passive and active mechanisms to avoid induction of the antiviral type I interferons in tissue cells. By contrast, chemokines such as IP-10 or IL-8 are strongly upregulated. The imbalance in the IFN response is thought to contribute to the establishment of viremia early in infection, whereas the production of chemokines by infected organs may be responsible for (i) massive immune cell infiltrations found in the lungs of SARS victims, and (ii) the dysregulation of adaptive immunity. Here, we will review the most recent findings on the interaction of SARS-CoV and related Coronaviridae members with the type I interferon and cytokine responses and discuss implications for pathogenesis and therapy. 相似文献
