An anti-human monocyte/macrophage monoclonal antibody, reacting most strongly with macrophages in lymphoid tissue 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
In this report, we have described monoclonal antibody (mAb) 24 which bound specifically to a 174,000 polypeptide present on 45 +/- 16% of human monocytes. Expression of the 24 molecule increased on monocytes when they were cultured. When tissues were examined using immunohistochemical techniques, macrophages (Mph) associated with skin and with lymphoid organs strongly expressed the mAb 24 molecule, whereas, Mph in nonlymphoid organs were only weakly positive. mAb 24 reacted with cells of Mph morphology plus cells of interdigitating appearance in T-cell areas, suggesting that these cells might belong to the Mph cell lineage. There was no reaction with other types of cells, such as Langerhans cells, osteoclasts, dendritic reticulum cells, and endothelial cells. The fact that the molecule recognised by mAb 24 is particularly associated with Mph in lymphoid tissue suggests that it might have a function in immune responses. 相似文献

A technique of macrophage-activating factors (MAF) detection by the in vitro determination of macrophage (Mph) antitumour cytolytic activity by 3H-thymidine residue in the pre-labelled neoplastic target cells (TC) is suggested. Peptone-induced Mph were cultivated for 20-22 hours in the presence of crude supernatants from concanavalin-A-stimulated spleen cells or from the secondary mixed lymphocyte culture. 3H-thymidine-labelled cells of mastocytoma P815 were then added to the washed Mph. The lysis was measured in 48 hours according to the isotope remainder in the non-acid-soluble fraction. The optimal conditions for MAF detection have been selected. Parallel MAF testing with this particular method and with a standard technique using labelled 51Cr TC made it possible to conclude that the method suggested is more sensitive because it permits a combined cultivation of Mph and TC for a relatively long time period. 相似文献

Human peripheral blood monocytes (Mo) can differentiate into highly active accessory cells and approach the phenotype and function of dendritic cells instead of developing into macrophages (Mph). Here we report that monocyte-derived accessory cells (m-AC), but not Mph, spontaneously synthesize and release high amounts of interleukin-1 (IL-1 beta). Furthermore, m-AC retained a high T-cell stimulatory activity and a non-macrophagic phenotype for at least 12 days in culture. They were shown to be weakly adherent, non-phagocytic, and most of them were negative for nonspecific esterase. In contrast, Mo differentiating into mature Mph only transiently showed an elevated accessory function but at no time appeared to release intracellular IL-1 beta into the supernatant when cultured in the absence of exogenous triggers. Additionally, they gained a high phagocytic capacity and a strong expression of Fc-receptors within 4 days. Addition of lipopolysaccharides (LPS) to Mph stimulated IL-1 beta release but concomitantly led to a strong reduction of the Mph-phenotype. Thus, the release of IL-1 beta from monocyte-derived cells negatively correlated with the expression of the Mph phenotype but did not necessarily correlate with their accessory function. These observations may reflect an antagonistic regulation of Mph phenotype and cytokine release in cells of the monocytic lineage and suggest that IL-1 beta release is not essential for accessory activity but might serve rather as an autocrine signal to prolong the accessory function of m-AC. 相似文献

Gross chromosomal rearrangement (GCR) is a type of genomic instability associated with many cancers. In yeast, multiple pathways cooperate to suppress GCR. In a screen for genes that promote GCR, we identified MPH1, which encodes a 3'-5' DNA helicase. Overexpression of Mph1p in yeast results in decreased efficiency of homologous recombination (HR) as well as delayed Rad51p recruitment to double-strand breaks (DSBs), which suggests that Mph1p promotes GCR by partially suppressing HR. A function for Mph1p in suppression of HR is further supported by the observation that deletion of both mph1 and srs2 synergistically sensitize cells to methyl methanesulfonate-induced DNA damage. The GCR-promoting activity of Mph1p appears to depend on its interaction with replication protein A (RPA). Consistent with this observation, excess Mph1p stabilizes RPA at DSBs. Furthermore, spontaneous RPA foci at DSBs are destabilized by the mph1Delta mutation. Therefore, Mph1p promotes GCR formation by partially suppressing HR, likely through its interaction with RPA. 相似文献

Saccharomyces cerevisiae Mph1 is a 3-5' DNA helicase, required for the maintenance of genome integrity. In order to understand the ATPase/helicase role of Mph1 in genome stability, we characterized its helicase activity with a variety of DNA substrates, focusing on its action on junction structures containing three or four DNA strands. Consistent with its 3' to 5' directionality, Mph1 displaced 3'-flap substrates in double-fixed or equilibrating flap substrates. Surprisingly, Mph1 displaced the 5'-flap strand more efficiently than the 3' flap strand from double-flap substrates, which is not expected for a 3-5' DNA helicase. For this to occur, Mph1 required a threshold size (>5 nt) of 5' single-stranded DNA flap. Based on the unique substrate requirements of Mph1 defined in this study, we propose that the helicase/ATPase activity of Mph1 play roles in converting multiple-stranded DNA structures into structures cleavable by processing enzymes such as Fen1. We also found that the helicase activity of Mph1 was used to cause structural alterations required for restoration of replication forks stalled due to damaged template. The helicase properties of Mph1 reported here could explain how it resolves D-loop structure, and are in keeping with a model proposed for the error-free damage avoidance pathway. 相似文献

Double strand breaks (DSBs) can be repaired via either Non-Homologous End Joining (NHEJ) or Homology directed Repair (HR). Telomeres, which resemble DSBs, are refractory to repair events in order to prevent chromosome end fusions and genomic instability. In some rare instances telomeres engage in Break-Induced Replication (BIR), a type of HR, in order to maintain telomere length in the absence of the enzyme telomerase. Here we have investigated how the yeast helicase, Mph1, affects DNA repair at both DSBs and telomeres. We have found that overexpressed Mph1 strongly inhibits BIR at internal DSBs however allows it to proceed at telomeres. Furthermore, while overexpressed Mph1 potently inhibits NHEJ at telomeres it has no effect on NHEJ at DSBs within the chromosome. At telomeres Mph1 is able to promote telomere uncapping and the accumulation of ssDNA, which results in premature senescence in the absence of telomerase. We propose that Mph1 is able to direct repair towards HR (thereby inhibiting NHEJ) at telomeres by remodeling them into a nuclease-sensitive structure, which promotes the accumulation of a recombinogenic ssDNA intermediate. We thus put forward that Mph1 is a double-edge sword at the telomere, it prevents NHEJ, but promotes senescence in cells with dysfunctional telomeres by increasing the levels of ssDNA. 相似文献

It was demonstrated, that the lethal in vitro suppressed the phagocytic activity of peritoneal mononuclear phagocyte (Mph) and enhanced the level activity of glutathione peroxidase to H2O2 (GP-H2O2) in Mph of resistant to anthrax BALB mice. In Mph BALB the authors observed dependent-dose enhancement of GP-H2O2 activity and reduction of the ratio of level glutathione reductase (GR) to GP-H2O2 (GR/GP-H2O2). The enhancement of activity GR-H2O2 in Mph CBA was not dependent on the doses of toxin. The coefficient GR/GP-H2O2 was similar to the control. The mechanisms of hereditary resistance to anthrax were discussed. 相似文献

The MPH1 (mutator pHenotype 1) gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was identified on the basis of elevated spontaneous mutation rates of haploid cells deleted for this gene. Further studies showed that MPH1 functions to channel DNA lesions into an error-free DNA repair pathway. The Mph1 protein contains the seven conserved motifs of the superfamily 2 (SF2) family of nucleic acid unwinding enzymes. Genetic analyses have found epistasis of the mph1 deletion with mutations in the RAD52 gene group that mediates homologous recombination and DNA repair by homologous recombination. To begin dissecting the biochemical functions of the MPH1-encoded product, we have expressed it in yeast cells and purified it to near homogeneity. We show that Mph1 has a robust ATPase function that requires single-stranded DNA for activation. Consistent with its homology to members of the SF2 helicase family, we find a DNA helicase activity in Mph1. We present data to demonstrate that the Mph1 DNA helicase activity is fueled by ATP hydrolysis and has a 3' to 5' polarity with respect to the DNA strand on which this protein translocates. The DNA helicase activity of Mph1 is enhanced by the heterotrimeric single-stranded DNA binding protein replication protein A. These results, thus, establish Mph1 as an ATP-dependent DNA helicase, and the availability of purified Mph1 should facilitate efforts at deciphering the role of this protein in homologous recombination and mutation avoidance. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: We have previously shown that monocytes/macrophages (MC/Mph) influence neovascularization by extracellular matrix degradation, and by direct incorporation into growing microvessels. To date, neither the phenotype of these cells, nor the stages of their capillary-like conversion were sufficiently characterized. METHODS: We isolated mouse peritoneal Mph from transgenic mice expressing fluorescent proteins either ubiquitously, or specifically in the myelocytic lineage. These Mph were embedded in Matrigel which contained fluorescent protease substrates, exposed to an MCP-1 chemotactic gradient, and then examined by confocal microscopy after various intervals. RESULTS: Within 3 hrs after gel embedding, we detected TIMP-1 and MMP-12 dependent proteolysis of the matrix surrounding Mph, mostly in the direction of high concentrations of MCP-1. After 2 days, Mph developed intracellular vacuoles containing degradation product. At 5 days these vacuoles were enlarged and/or fused to generate trans-cellular lumens in approximately 10% of cells or more (depending on animal's genetic background). At this stage, Mph became tubular, and occasionally organized in three-dimensional structures resembling branched microvessels. CONCLUSION: Isolated mouse peritoneal Mph penetrate Matrigel and form tunnels via a metalloprotease-driven proteolysis and phagocytosis. Following a morphological adjustment driven by occurrence, enlargement and/or fusion process of intracellular vacuoles, similar to that described in bona fide endothelium, a subpopulation of these cells end up by lining a capillary-like lumen in vitro. Thus we show that adult Mph, not only the more primitive 'endothelial progenitors', have functional properties until now considered defining of the endothelial phenotype. 相似文献

In budding yeast the DNA helicase Mph1 prevents genome rearrangements during ectopic homologous recombination (HR) by suppressing the formation of crossovers (COs). Here we show that during ectopic HR repair, the anti-CO function of Mph1 is intricately associated with the mismatch repair (MMR) factor, MutSα. In particular, during HR repair using a completely homologous substrate, we reveal an MMR-independent function of MutSα in generating COs that is specifically antagonized by Mph1, but not Sgs1. In contrast, both Mph1 and MutSα are required to efficiently suppress COs in the presence of a homeologous substrate. Mph1 acts redundantly with Sgs1 in this respect since mph1Δ sgs1Δ double mutant cells pheno-copy MutSα mutants and completely fail to discriminate homologous and homeologous sequences during HR repair. However, this defect of mph1Δ sgs1Δ cells is not due to an inability to carry out MMR but rather is accompanied by elevated levels of gene conversion (GC) and bi-directional GC tracts specifically in non-crossover products. Models describing how Mph1, MutSα and Sgs1 act in concert to suppress genome rearrangements during ectopic HR repair are discussed. 相似文献

The establishment of proper kinetochore-microtubule attachments facilitates faithful chromosome segregation. Incorrect attachments activate the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC), which blocks anaphase onset via recruitment of a cohort of SAC components (Mph1/MPS1, Mad1, Mad2, Mad3/BubR1, Bub1 and Bub3) to kinetochores. KNL1, a component of the outer kinetochore KMN network (KNL1/Mis12 complex/Ndc80 complex), acts as a platform for Bub1 and Bub3 localization upon its phosphorylation by Mph1/MPS1. The Ndc80 protein, a major microtubule-binding site, is critical for MPS1 localization to the kinetochores in mammalian cells. Here we characterized the newly isolated mutant ndc80-AK01 in fission yeast, which contains a single point mutation within the hairpin region. This hairpin connects the preceding calponin-homology domain with the coiled-coil region. ndc80-AK01 was hypersensitive to microtubule depolymerizing reagents with no apparent growth defects without drugs. Subsequent analyses indicated that ndc80-AK01 is defective in SAC signaling, as mutant cells proceeded into lethal cell division in the absence of microtubules. Under mitotic arrest conditions, all SAC components (Ark1/Aurora B, Mph1, Bub1, Bub3, Mad3, Mad2 and Mad1) did not localize to the kinetochore. Further genetic analyses indicated that the Ndc80 hairpin region might act as a platform for the kinetochore recruitment of Mph1, which is one of the most upstream SAC components in the hierarchy. Intriguingly, artificial tethering of Mph1 to the kinetochore fully restored checkpoint signaling in ndc80-AK01 cells, further substantiating the notion that Ndc80 is a kinetochore platform for Mph1. The hairpin region of Ndc80, therefore, plays a critical role in kinetochore recruitment of Mph1. 相似文献

Influenza virus infection accounts for significant morbidity and mortality world-wide. Interactions of the virus with host cells, particularly those of the macrophage lineage, are thought to contribute to various pathological changes associated with poor patient outcome. Development of new strategies to treat disease therefore requires a detailed understanding of the impact of virus infection upon cellular responses. Here we report that human blood-derived monocytes could be readily infected with the H3N2 influenza virus A/Udorn/72 (Udorn), irrespective of their phenotype (CD14(++)/CD16(-), CD14(++)/CD16(+) or CD14(dim)CD16(++)), as determined by multi-colour flow cytometry for viral haemagglutinin (HA) expression and cell surface markers 8-16 hours post infection. Monocytes are relatively resistant to influenza-induced cell death early in infection, as approximately 20% of cells showed influenza-induced caspase-dependent apoptosis. Infection of monocytes with Udorn also induced the release of IL-6, IL-8, TNFα and IP-10, suggesting that NS1 protein of Udorn does not (effectively) inhibit this host defence response in human monocytes. Comparative analysis of human monocyte-derived macrophages (Mph) demonstrated greater susceptibility to human influenza virus than monocytes, with the majority of both pro-inflammatory Mph1 and anti-inflammatory/regulatory Mph2 cells expressing viral HA after infection with Udorn. Influenza infection of macrophages also induced cytokine and chemokine production. However, both Mph1 and Mph2 phenotypes released comparable amounts of TNFα, IL-12p40 and IP-10 after infection with H3N2, in marked contrast to differential responses to LPS-stimulation. In addition, we found that influenza virus infection augmented the capacity of poorly phagocytic Mph1 cells to phagocytose apoptotic cells by a mechanism that was independent of either IL-10 or the Mer receptor tyrosine kinase/Protein S pathway. In summary, our data reveal that influenza virus infection of human macrophages causes functional alterations that may impact on the process of resolution of inflammation, with implications for viral clearance and lung pathology. 相似文献

Fanconi anemia (FA) is a devastating genetic disease, associated with genomic instability and defects in DNA interstrand cross-link (ICL) repair. The FA repair pathway is not thought to be conserved in budding yeast, and although the yeast Mph1 helicase is a putative homolog of human FANCM, yeast cells disrupted for MPH1 are not sensitive to ICLs. Here, we reveal a key role for Mph1 in ICL repair when the Pso2 exonuclease is inactivated. We find that the yeast FANCM ortholog Mph1 physically and functionally interacts with Mgm101, a protein previously implicated in mitochondrial DNA repair, and the MutSα mismatch repair factor (Msh2-Msh6). Co-disruption of MPH1, MGM101, MSH6, or MSH2 with PSO2 produces a lesion-specific increase in ICL sensitivity, the elevation of ICL-induced chromosomal rearrangements, and persistence of ICL-associated DNA double-strand breaks. We find that Mph1-Mgm101-MutSα directs the ICL-induced recruitment of Exo1 to chromatin, and we propose that Exo1 is an alternative 5'-3' exonuclease utilised for ICL repair in the absence of Pso2. Moreover, ICL-induced Rad51 chromatin loading is delayed when both Pso2 and components of the Mph1-Mgm101-MutSα and Exo1 pathway are inactivated, demonstrating that the homologous recombination stages of ICL repair are inhibited. Finally, the FANCJ- and FANCP-related factors Chl1 and Slx4, respectively, are also components of the genetic pathway controlled by Mph1-Mgm101-MutSα. Together this suggests that a prototypical FA-related ICL repair pathway operates in budding yeast, which acts redundantly with the pathway controlled by Pso2, and is required for the targeting of Exo1 to chromatin to execute ICL repair. 相似文献

The budding yeast Mph1 protein, the putative ortholog of human FANCM, possesses a 3' to 5' DNA helicase activity and is capable of disrupting the D-loop structure to suppress chromosome arm crossovers in mitotic homologous recombination. Similar to FANCM, genetic studies have implicated Mph1 in DNA replication fork repair. Consistent with this genetic finding, we show here that Mph1 is able to mediate replication fork reversal, and to process the Holliday junction via DNA branch migration. Moreover, Mph1 unwinds 3' and 5' DNA Flap structures that bear key features of the D-loop. These biochemical results not only provide validation for a role of Mph1 in the repair of damaged replication forks, but they also offer mechanistic insights as to its ability to efficiently disrupt the D-loop intermediate. 相似文献

The role of IL-6 and IL-1 in the regulation of accessory activity and differentiation in the human monocyte/macrophage (Mo/Mph) system was investigated. IL-6 combined with IL-1 had a strong effect on the accessory activity of Mo-derived cells dependent on their state of differentiation in vitro. Fresh Mo prepared from peripheral blood differentiated into potent accessory cells in vitro within 24 h in the absence of exogenous triggers in serum-containing and serum-free medium. Mo cultured for 2 days in the presence of the cytokines IL-6 and IL-1 did not significantly increase their spontaneous accessory activity. However, the simultaneous addition of antibodies against IL-6 and IL-1 to accessory Mo cultures significantly diminished their T cell stimulatory capacity. These findings suggest an important positive feedback role of IL-6 and IL-1, secreted by Mo at this early state of differentiation. In marked contrast, untreated mature Mph generated in vitro from Mo exhibited a low spontaneous accessory potency. However, when these cells were subjected to IL-6 and/or IL-1, we observed a strong dose dependent increase in their potency to stimulate a T cell response. Parameters indicating the differentiation of Mo to Mph, such as acid phosphatase and 5' nucleotidase, were not influenced by the addition of IL-1, IL-6, or a mixture of both and confirmed the presence of mature Mph after 6 days of culture. Based on these observations, we conclude that the monocyte-derived cytokines IL-6 and IL-1 not only directly act on T cells but may also function as a signal for accessory activity during Mo/Mph differentiation. 相似文献

The genomic stability of all organisms depends on the precise partition of chromosomes to daughter cells. The spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) senses unattached kinetochores and prevents premature entry to anaphase, thus ensuring that all chromosomes attach to opposite spindle poles (bi-orientation) during mitosis. MPS1 is an evolutionarily conserved protein kinase required for the SAC and chromosome bi-orientation. Yet, its primary cellular substrate has remained elusive. We show that fission yeast Mph1 (MPS1 homologue) phosphorylates the kinetochore protein Spc7 (KNL1/Blinkin homologue) at the MELT repeat sequences. This phosphorylation promotes the in vitro binding to the Bub1-Bub3 complex, which is required for kinetochore-based SAC activation (Mad1-Mad2-Mad3 localization) and chromosome alignment. Accordingly, a non-phosphorylatable spc7-12A mutation abolishes kinetochore targeting of Bub1-Bub3, whereas a phospho-mimetic spc7-12E mutation forces them to localize at kinetochores throughout the entire cell cycle, even in the absence of Mph1. Thus, MPS1/Mph1 kinase locating at the unattached kinetochores initially creates a mark, which is crucial for SAC activation and chromosome bi-orientation. This mechanism seems to be conserved in human cells. 相似文献

The error-free repair of double-strand DNA breaks by homologous recombination (HR) ensures genomic stability using undamaged homologous sequence to copy genetic information. While some of the aspects of the initial steps of HR are understood, the molecular mechanisms underlying events downstream of the D-loop formation remain unclear. Therefore, we have reconstituted D-loop-based in vitro recombination-associated DNA repair synthesis assay and tested the efficacy of polymerases Pol δ and Pol η to extend invaded primer, and the ability of three helicases (Mph1, Srs2 and Sgs1) to displace this extended primer. Both Pol δ and Pol η extended up to 50% of the D-loop substrate, but differed in product length and dependency on proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). Mph1, but not Srs2 or Sgs1, displaced the extended primer very efficiently, supporting putative role of Mph1 in promoting the synthesis-dependent strand-annealing pathway. The experimental system described here can be employed to increase our understanding of HR events following D-loop formation, as well as the regulatory mechanisms involved. 相似文献

Defects in chromosome segregation result in aneuploidy, which can lead to disease or cell death [1, 2]. The spindle checkpoint delays anaphase onset until all chromosomes are attached to spindle microtubules in a bipolar fashion [3, 4]. Mad2 is a key checkpoint component that undergoes conformational activation, catalyzed by a Mad1-Mad2 template enriched at unattached kinetochores [5]. Mad2 and Mad3 (BubR1) then bind and inhibit Cdc20 to form the mitotic checkpoint complex (MCC), which binds and inhibits the anaphase promoting complex (APC/C). Checkpoint kinases (Aurora, Bub1, and Mps1) are critical for checkpoint signaling, yet they have poorly defined roles and few substrates have been identified [6-8]. Here we demonstrate that a kinase-dead allele of the fission yeast MPS1 homolog (Mph1) is checkpoint defective and that levels of APC/C-associated Mad2 and Mad3 are dramatically reduced in this mutant. Thus, MCC binding to fission yeast APC/C is dependent on Mph1 kinase activity. We map and mutate several phosphorylation sites in Mad2, producing mutants that display reduced Cdc20-APC/C binding and an inability to maintain checkpoint arrest. We conclude that Mph1 kinase regulates the association of Mad2 with its binding partners and thereby mitotic arrest. 相似文献

The production of soluble cytostatic (CS) factor(s) by nonactivated peritoneal resident macrophages (Mph) of Syrian hamsters was found with the use of susceptible spontaneously transformed in vitro cells of STHE cell strain. The CS factor was determined by two modifications of CS test: 1) incorporation of 3H-TdR to the nuclei of target cells and 2) direct determination of the number of cells in the wells. The selected in vivo highly malignant variant of STHE strain appeared to be resistant to CS factors Mph. 相似文献
