Comparative effects of various classes of mouse interferons on macrophage activation for tumor cell killing 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

The effects of mouse interferon-alpha (MuIFN-alpha), -beta (MuIFN-beta), and -gamma (MuIFN-gamma) on macrophage activation for tumor cell killing were determined by using proteose peptone-elicited peritoneal macrophages from C3H/HeN and C3H/HeJ mice under conditions that either included or were free of detectable endotoxin. Alone, under the conditions used, none of the interferons was able to activate macrophages directly for tumor cell killing. However, with a second signal provided to responsive macrophages by contaminating endotoxin, added bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), or heat-killed Listeria monocytogenes (HKLM), all three types of interferon induced cytolytic activity, with MuIFN-gamma approximately 500 to 1000-fold more active than either MuIFN-alpha or -beta. Thus, all three interferons were able to prime macrophages for killing but required a second signal before cytolytic activity could be expressed. When MuIFN-gamma was mixed with either MuIFN-alpha or -beta and placed on macrophages, little or no killing developed. Mixtures of MuIFN-gamma with either MuIFN-alpha or -beta did increase the sensitivity of macrophages to triggering by LPS, however, compared with macrophages treated with MuIFN-gamma alone. The results are collectively important because they i) confirm that significant quantitative differences exist between the various interferons with regard to their capacity to prime macrophages for tumor cell killing; ii) indicate that to be an efficient activator each type of interferon must be combined with a second stimulus, such as LPS or HKLM; iii) show that neither MuIFN-alpha nor -beta can provide an efficient second triggering signal for macrophages that are primed by MuIFN-gamma; and iv) document that mixtures of MuIFN-gamma with either MuIFN-alpha or -beta are most efficient at inducing priming, compared with any one of the interferons used alone. 相似文献

Triggering of interferon gamma-primed macrophages by various known complement activators for nonspecific tumor cytotoxicity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Five known complement activators were evaluated for their capacity to directly activate murine macrophages and to trigger activation of lymphokine primed macrophages for nonspecific tumor cytotoxicity. Bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), Lipid A, polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid, cobra venom factor (CVF), and zymosan directly activated macrophages in a dose-dependent fashion at high concentrations. Subactivating concentrations of each of these agents were found to effectively trigger macrophages which were preprimed either by macrophage-activating factor or by murine recombinant interferon gamma for enhanced tumoricidal activity. An Fc receptor blockade with opsonized sheep erythrocytes abrogated LPS-mediated direct activation and triggering of interferon gamma-primed macrophages, but had no inhibitory effect on direct activation or triggering by CVF for nonspecific tumor cytotoxicity. This study characterizes the capacity of a diverse group of known complement activators to serve as second signal triggers for culmination of the activation process of interferon-primed macrophages for nonspecific tumoricidal activity. These findings suggest that complement activators may directly activate macrophages by stimulation of interferon beta production by macrophages for self-priming and, as we have shown, act as self-triggers. The putative role of macrophage-associated complement components in the activation process is discussed. 相似文献

The expression of cytocidal activity is induced by the sequential interaction of macrophages with a priming stimulus, such as interferon (IFN)alpha, -beta, or -gamma, and a triggering stimulus, such as poly(I.C) or lipopolysaccharide. However, most triggering stimuli are also capable of inducing IFN expression. This suggested to us the possibility that in addition to its role in initially priming macrophages for cytocidal activity, IFN may also be expressed during the triggering stage where it may potentially contribute to the regulation of cytocidal activity. We have explored this question by (i) attempting to dissociate IFN-inducing activity from triggering activity with a variety of structurally related and charge-related polyanions; (ii) determining if macrophages express IFN during the triggering stage; and (iii) questioning if IFN produced during the triggering stage contributes to the regulation of cytocidal activation. Exposure of unprimed macrophages to a triggering concentration of poly(I.C) alone failed to induce IFN beta expression. However, exposure of IFN beta-primed cells to poly(I.C) dramatically increased the expression of IFN beta mRNA. Priming with IFN gamma was likewise found to increase the expression of IFN beta mRNA in response to a triggering concentration of polyribonucleotides. Three approaches were adopted to ascertain if the increased expression of IFN beta contributed to cytocidal activation. First, macrophages derived from strains of mice which differ in their susceptibility to IFN induction by poly(I.C) were primed with IFN beta, washed, and triggered with poly(I.C). Under these conditions, macrophages derived from stain B10.A(2R), which are hyporesponsive to poly(I.C) in terms of IFN induction, also showed a diminished capacity to express Bf, a marker of cytocidal activation. Second, exposure of IFN-primed macrophages to poly(I.C) in the presence of anti-IFN alpha/beta antibody was found to reduce substantially the synthesis of NO2/NO3, an alternative marker of macrophage cytocidal activation. Third, exposure of IFN-primed macrophages to the calcium ionophores ionomycin or A23187, which do not induce the production of IFN beta during triggering, led to an abbreviated expression of Bf compared with stimuli that induce IFN beta expression such as poly(I.C). However, the capacity to synthesize Bf in response to A23187 was partially reconstituted when macrophages were triggered with the ionophore in the continuous presence of IFN beta. Collectively, these data show that IFN beta is expressed during the triggering stage of macrophage cytocidal activation and suggest that it plays an important and previously unsuspected role in the expression of this state. 相似文献

Potentiation of lymphokine-induced macrophage activation by tumor necrosis factor-alpha 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

In this study, we examined the possible role of TNF-alpha and lymphotoxin (TNF-beta) as cofactors of macrophage activation. The results demonstrate that both TNF were capable of enhancing the cytostatic and cytolytic activity of murine peritoneal macrophages against Eb lymphoma cells. The potentiation of tumor cytotoxicity became apparent when macrophages from DBA/2 mice were suboptimally activated by either a T cell clone-derived macrophage-activating factor or by IFN-gamma plus LPS. Neither TNF-alpha nor TNF-beta could induce tumor cytotoxicity in IFN-gamma-primed macrophages, indicating that TNF cannot replace LPS as a triggering signal of activation. In LPS-resistant C3H/HeJ macrophages, which were unresponsive to IFN-gamma plus LPS, a supplementation with TNF fully restored activation to tumor cytotoxicity. Furthermore, TNF-alpha potentiated a variety of other functions in low-level activated macrophages such as a lactate production and release of cytotoxic factors. At the same time, TNF-alpha produced a further down-regulation of pinocytosis, tumor cell binding and RNA synthesis observed in activated macrophages. These data demonstrate new activities for both TNF-alpha and TNF-beta as helper factors that facilitate macrophage activation. In particular, the macrophage product TNF-alpha may serve as an autocrine signal to potentiate those macrophage functions that were insufficiently activated by lymphokines. 相似文献

Macrophage activation for tumor cell killing is a multistep pathway in which responsive macrophages interact sequentially with priming and triggering stimuli in the acquisition of full tumoricidal activity. Although this synergistic response of normal macrophages to sequential incubation with activation signals has been well established, characterization of the intermediate stages in this pathway has been difficult, due in large measure to the instability of the intermediate cell phenotypes. We have developed a model system for examination of macrophage-mediated tumor cell lysis, with the use of the murine macrophage tumor cell line RAW 264.7. These cells, like normal macrophages, exhibit a strict requirement for interaction with both interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma, the priming signal) and bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS, the triggering signal) in the development of tumor cytolytic activity. In this system, the priming effects of IFN-gamma decay rapidly after withdrawal of this mediator and the cells become unresponsive to LPS triggering. We have recently observed that gamma-irradiation of the RAW 264.7 cells also results in development of a primed activation state for tumor cell killing. The effects of gamma-radiation on the RAW 264.7 cell line are strikingly similar to those resulting from incubation with IFN-gamma, with the exception that the irradiation-induced primed cell intermediate is stable and responsive to LPS triggering for at least 24 hr. Treatment with gamma-radiation also results in increased cell surface expression of major histocompatibility complex-encoded class I antigens; however, class II antigen expression is not induced. Irradiation-induced development of the primed phenotype is not solely the result of cytostatic effects as treatment of the cells with a radiomimetic drug, mitomycin C, results in decreases in [3H]thymidine incorporation that are similar to those observed after irradiation, without concomitant development of cytolytic potential. In addition, priming by gamma-radiation does not appear to be mediated by the release of soluble autoregulatory factors. This alternate pathway for induction of the primed macrophage activation state should serve as a useful tool for identification of molecules important to the functional potential of primed cells, and for elucidation of the biochemical mechanisms of the priming event in tumoricidal activation. 相似文献

Addition of interferon (IF) inducers pyran copolymer, poly(I)-poly(C), an ether extract of Brucella abortus (Bru-Pel), or Salmonella typhimurium lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to cultures of peritoneal macrophages in vitro enhanced their cytotoxic activity for MBL-2 lymphoblastic leukemia cells. To evaluate the role of induced IF in the macrophage activation, highly specific rabbit anti-L-cell IF globulin was added to resting macrophage cultures at the same time as the macrophage-activating agents. Macrophage activation by these various biological and synthetic agents was totally neutralized by anti-IF globulin but not by normal rabbit globulin. Similarly, the anti-IF globulin inhibited the ability of chromatography-purified Newcastle disease virus-induced IF to render macrophages cytotoxic, and the degree of neutralization of IF titer corresponded with the inhibition of IF-induced macrophage-mediated cytotoxicity. In contrast, macrophage activation by concanavalin A-induced lymphokine, which contains an antigenically different IF, was not affected by high titers of the anti-L-cell IF antibodies. The results indicate that endogenously generated type I IF may play an important role in control of macrophage function. 相似文献

Rabbit kidney cell cultures stimulated with either double-stranded polyinosinate-polycytidylate (poly I:poly C) or with ultraviolet-irradiated Newcastle disease virus (UV-NDV) produce two types of interferon response, designated "early" and "late," respectively. The early response is suppressed by inhibitors of RNA or protein synthesis and is therefore thought to represent de novo synthesis of interferon. Circumstantial evidence suggested that this interferon response is regulated by a translation control mechanism. Late interferon production with poly I:poly C only took place in the presence of inhibitors of RNA or protein synthesis. The late interferon is therefore likely to be derived by the activation of an interferon precursor. The stimulation of late poly I:poly C-induced interferon production by cycloheximide suggested the existence of a second, posttranslational level of control of interferon production. This posttranslation control seems to be activated by interferon. UV-NDV can probably suppress the synthesis of the posttranslation inhibitory protein, and therefore it stimulates a late interferon response in the absence of inhibitors of RNA or protein synthesis. It is postulated that both the translation and posttranslation inhibitor participate in the development of a cellular refractory state to repeated interferon stimulation. The picture of interferon which emerges from this study is one of a heterogenous class of proteins whose production is controlled by cellular repressors acting at various levels. 相似文献

Interferon induction in marrow-derived macrophages: regulation by L cell conditioned medium 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Mouse bone marrow cells grown in medium enriched with L cell conditioned medium (LCM) as a source of colony stimulating factor (CSF) yield populations of adherent macrophages which are quite sensitive to induction of interferon (IFN) by viral and nonviral inducers. We examined the role of LCM in the sensitivity of marrow macrophage cultures to IFN induction. Removal of LCM from the cultures for as little as 3 hours markedly reduced the IFN titers induced by a double stranded ribopolynucleotide (poly I:C) or a lipopolysaccharide (LPS), while induction by Newcastle disease virus (NDV) was unaffected. Addition of anti-CSF serum to LCM medium also reduced IFN titers in response to polyI:C but had no effect on NDV induction. The inhibitory effect of anit-CSF indicates that the LCM requirement is at least partially related to the colony stimulating activity of the medium. We postulate that CSF regulates the initial interaction of macrophages with polyI:C or LPS rather than the synthesis and secretion of interferon by the phagocytes. Nearly complete restoration of IFN induction with polyI:C was obtained when LCM deprived cultures were reincubated with LCM medium previously conditioned by marrow cultures. 相似文献

The extracellular slime produced by Staphylococcus epidermidis has been shown to interfere with several human neutrophil functions in vitro, such as chemotaxis, degranulation and phagocytosis. Slime production has been suggested as a useful marker for clinically significant infections with coagulase-negative Staphylococcus. Since the main role of macrophages in defense mechanisms is phagocytosis, the effect of slime on the phagocytic activity of macrophages was investigated. The phagocytic activity of murine peritoneal macrophages treated with slime in vitro decreased in a dose-dependent fashion. A similar decrease was also observed in macrophages isolated from mice that had previously received intraperitoneal injection of slime. To investigate whether interferon also plays a role in this process, mice were treated with interferon or an interferon inducer, polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (poly I:C), together with slime before macrophage isolation. The slime-suppressed phagocytic activity of macrophages was partially relieved by both agents, and the recovery effect of poly I:C in slime-suppressed phagocytosis of macrophages in vivo might be attributed to the increased interferon level in peritoneal fluid and sera. However, when slime was given to poly I:C-pretreated mice, the phagocytic activity remained suppressed. Thus, it appears that slime is able to suppress the phagocytic activity of macrophages regardless of the state of macrophage activation by poly I:C. The results suggest that the inhibition of phagocytosis by S. epidermidis slime may be independent from the activation of interferon. 相似文献

The turkey interferon (TkIFN) gene encodes a signal peptide and a mature protein of 30 and 162 amino acids, respectively. TkIFN mRNA expression was induced by reoviral double-stranded RNA in fibroblasts. The recombinant TkIFN protein possessed species-specific antiviral activity and in synergy with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced bone marrow macrophages to produce nitric oxide (NO). LPS or TkIFN alone did not induce bone marrow macrophages to produce significant amounts of NO, which showed that TkIFN provided one of the two signals necessary to induce NO production in turkey macrophages. Unlike the anti-inflammatory nature of mammalian alpha/beta IFNs, TkIFN augmented the LPS-induced expression of interleukin-8, a proinflammatory cytokine. This finding suggests a role for TkIFN in inflammatory conditions. 相似文献

Flow-cytometric analysis of mouse peritoneal macrophages (MΦ) stained with acridine orange defined three populations with increasing RNA content. Resident MΦ displayed variable bimodal distributions of low and intermediate cellular RNA content with high RNA content only observed after in vitro stimulation with fetal calf serum or/and bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). In contrast, only few resident macrophages from the LPS nonresponder strain C3H/HeJ increased in RNA content upon LPS stimulation. Macrophages with high RNA content developed transiently after in vivo stimulation with either thioglycollate broth or paraffin oil. Proteose peptone-elicited macrophages transformed only after additional in vitro stimulation with fetal calf serum and/or LPS. The magnitude of the in vitro response upon stimulation, assessed as increasing percentage of either intermediate or high RNA macrophages, was dependent on the composition of the MΦ population at the onset of in vitro culture. Effective increase in cellular RNA content was always paralleled by improved adherence of plated macrophages to the culture vessel. In conclusion, flow-cytometric measurement of macrophage populations might become a useful tool to quantify macrophage activation or stimulation. 相似文献

In addition to inducing apoptosis, caspase inhibition contributes to necroptosis and/or autophagy depending on the cell type and cellular context. In macrophages, necroptosis can be induced by co-treatment with Toll-like receptor (TLR) ligands (lipopolysaccharide [LPS] for TLR4 and polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid [poly I:C] for TLR3) and a cell-permeable pan-caspase inhibitor zVAD. Here, we elucidated the signaling pathways and molecular mechanisms of cell death. We showed that LPS/zVAD- and poly I:C/zVAD-induced cell death in bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) was inhibited by receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIP1) inhibitor necrostatin-1 and autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine. Electron microscopic images displayed autophagosome/autolysosomes, and immunoblotting data revealed increased LC3II expression. Although zVAD did not affect LPS- or poly I:C-induced activation of IKK, JNK, and p38, it enhanced IRF3 and STAT1 activation as well as type I interferon (IFN) expression. In addition, zVAD inhibited ERK and Akt phosphorylation induced by LPS and poly I:C. Of note, zVAD-induced enhancement of the IRF3/IFN/STAT1 axis was abolished by necrostatin-1, while zVAD-induced inhibition of ERK and Akt was not. Our data further support the involvement of autocrine IFNs action in reactive oxygen species (ROS)-dependent necroptosis, LPS/zVAD-elicited ROS production was inhibited by necrostatin-1, neutralizing antibody of IFN receptor (IFNR) and JAK inhibitor AZD1480. Accordingly, both cell death and ROS production induced by TLR ligands plus zVAD were abrogated in STAT1 knockout macrophages. We conclude that enhanced TRIF-RIP1-dependent autocrine action of IFNβ, rather than inhibition of ERK or Akt, is involved in TLRs/zVAD-induced autophagic and necroptotic cell death via the JAK/STAT1/ROS pathway. 相似文献

RIG-I, a virus sensor that triggers innate antiviral response, is a DExD/H box RNA helicase bearing structural similarity with Dicer, an RNase III-type nuclease that mediates RNA interference. Dicer requires double-stranded RNA-binding protein partners, such as PACT, for optimal activity. Here we show that PACT physically binds to the C-terminal repression domain of RIG-I and potently stimulates RIG-I-induced type I interferon production. PACT potentiates the activation of RIG-I by poly(I:C) of intermediate length. PACT also cooperates with RIG-I to sustain the activation of antiviral defense. Depletion of PACT substantially attenuates viral induction of interferons. The activation of RIG-I by PACT does not require double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase or Dicer, but is mediated by a direct interaction that leads to stimulation of its ATPase activity. Our findings reveal PACT as an important component in initiating and sustaining the RIG-I-dependent antiviral response. 相似文献

Bone marrow-derived macrophages proliferate in response to specific growth factors, including macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF). When stimulated with activating factors, such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS), macrophages stop proliferating and produce proinflammatory cytokines. Although triggering opposed responses, both M-CSF and LPS induce the activation of extracellular-regulated kinases (ERKs) 1 and 2. However, the time-course of ERK activation is different; maximal activation by M-CSF and LPS occurred after 5 and 15 min of stimulation, respectively. Granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor, interleukin 3, and TPA, all of which induced macrophage proliferation, also induced ERK activity, which was maximal at 5 min poststimulation. The use of PD98059, which specifically blocks ERK 1 and 2 activation, demonstrated that ERK activity was necessary for macrophage proliferation in response to these factors. The treatment with phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C (PC-PLC) inhibited macrophage proliferation, induced the expression of cytokines, and triggered a pattern of ERK activation equivalent to that induced by LPS. Moreover, PD98059 inhibited the expression of cytokines induced by LPS or PC-PLC, thus suggesting that ERK activity is also required for macrophage activation by these two agents. Activation of the JNK pathway did not discriminate between proliferative and activating stimuli. In conclusion, our results allow to correlate the differences in the time-course of ERK activity with the macrophagic response toward proliferation or activation. 相似文献

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play an important role in induction of innate immune responses for host defense against invading
microbial pathogens. Microbial component engagement of TLRs can trigger the activation of myeloid differential factor 88 (MyD88)-
and toll-interleukin-1 receptor domain-containing adapter inducing interferon-β (TRIF)-dependent downstream signaling pathways.
Parthenolide, an active ingredient of feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium), has been used for centuries to treat many chronic diseases. Parthenolide inhibits the MyD88-dependent pathway by inhibiting
the activity of inhibitor-κB kinase. However, it is not known whether parthenolide inhibits the TRIF-dependent pathway. To
evaluate the therapeutic potential of parthenolide, its effect on signal transduction via the TRIF-dependent pathway of TLRs
induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (poly [I:C]) was examined. Parthenolide inhibited nuclear
factor-κB and interferon regulatory factor 3 activation induced by LPS or poly[I:C], and the LPS-induced phosphorylation of
interferon regulatory factor 3 as well as interferon-inducible genes such as interferon inducible protein-10. These results
suggest that parthenolide can modulate TRIF-dependent signaling pathways of TLRs, and may be the basis of effective therapeutics
for chronic inflammatory diseases. 相似文献

Inhibitors of C1q biosynthesis suppress activation of murine macrophages for both antibody-independent and antibody-dependent tumor cytotoxicity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The inhibitors of C1q biosynthesis and secretion, 3,4-dehydro-DL-proline (DHP) and 2,2'-dipyridyl, were previously shown to suppress murine macrophage FcR-dependent phagocytosis and cytolysis of IgG-opsonized RBC targets. Inasmuch as non-antibody macrophage activators also bind C1q to initiate C1 activation, we determined the effects of these same inhibitors of C1q biosynthesis on activation of macrophages for antibody-independent, nonspecific tumor cytotoxicity by lipid A and a variety of other non-antibody activators. Preexposure of mouse inflammatory peritoneal macrophages to either DHP (0.5 to 2.5 mM) or 2,2'-dipyridyl (0.1 to 0.3 mM) for 24 h produced a dose-related suppression of their response to activation by lipid A to mediate tumor cytotoxicity of L1210 mouse leukemia targets. Inhibition of C1q secretion by DHP-treated macrophages was confirmed both by a complement hemolytic assay and by autoradiographic analysis of [35S]methionine-labeled culture supernatants. DHP-treated macrophages were inhibited in their response to direct activation and triggering of IFN-gamma-primed macrophages by lipid A, Poly I:C, and cobra venom factor for tumor cytotoxicity. DHP inhibited macrophage activation for antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity of L1210 tumor targets mediated by antitumor target IgG. The addition of exogenous purified C1q (2 micrograms/ml) to macrophages after DHP treatment, reconstituted their response to activation for both antibody-independent and antibody-dependent tumor cytotoxicity. Our results indicate that C1q synthesis and secretion by effector macrophages is a prerequisite for the initiation of their activation by both immune complex and by non-antibody agents that also bind C1q. It now appears that macrophage-derived C1q may act as an auxiliary amplification signal for autocrine-like modulation of the initiation of macrophage activation by both the antibody-dependent and independent pathways. 相似文献
