Human leukocyte dialysates contain components capable of amplifying cutaneous delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) reactions. In the present study, two such amplifiers, both less than 3500 m.w., were partially purified from human leukocyte dialysates by gel filtration on Sephadex G-10 followed by high pressure reverse-phase liquid chromatography. These amplifiers of DTH were examined for their effects on production of the migration inhibitory lymphokines leukocyte migration inhibition factor (LIF) and macrophage migration inhibition factor (MIF). The amplifiers were found to increase LIF and MIF production by antigen- or alloantigen-stimulated human peripheral blood lymphocytes in a dose-dependent fashion. Further analysis demonstrated that although antigen-stimulated T4 and T8 cell subpopulations could produce LIF activity under the assay conditions employed, amplification of lymphokine production by modulator was only observed with the T4 subset. 相似文献

Reception by PGLC-33H target cells for the migration inhibitory factor (MIF) produced by this established line has been investigated by pulse time and temperature dependence, MIF absorption, and abrogation by trypsinization. PGLC-33H supernatants containing MIF were concentrated 5× with Carbowax and dialyzed against serum free RPMI-1640 before use. Prior to standard capillary migration assay a minimum 30 min pulse of MIF at 37 °C is required for significant migration inhibition (MI > 20%). No significant MI is observed when cells are pulsed at 4 °C for up to 2 hr. Preincubation with PGLC-33H for 1 hr at 37 °C reduces activity of supernatants from 38 to 13% MI; at 4 °C to 27% MI. Trypsinization of target cells for 30 min at 25 °C abrogates response to MIF (43 to ?14% MI). Trypsinized cells did not reduce activity of supernatants. MIF activity is abolished (32 to 3% MI) in samples preincubated with supernatants of the trypsinized cells inactivated with serum. These data suggest that cells from the human B-lymphoid cell line PGLC-33H have a surface receptor for human MIF. 相似文献

Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a multi-functional cytokine that is considered a pro-inflammatory cytokine. However, our studies show that MIF, when produced in super-physiological levels by a murine neuroblastoma cell line (Neuro-2a) exceeding those normally seen during an immune response, inhibits cytokine-, CD3-, and allo-induced T-cell activation. MIF is also able to inhibit T cells that have already received an activation signal. The T-cell inhibitory effects of culture supernatants from neuroblastoma cells were reversed when the cells were transfected with dicer-generated si-RNA to MIF. When T cells were activated in vitro by co-culture with interleukin (IL)-2 and IL-15 and analyzed for cytokine production in the presence or absence of MIF-containing culture supernatant, inhibition of T-cell proliferation and induced cell death were observed even as the treated T cells produced high levels of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). The inhibitory effects of MIF were partially reversed when lymphocytes from IFN-gamma knockout mice were tested. We propose that the high levels of MIF produced by neuroblastoma cause activation induced T-cell death through an IFN-gamma pathway and may eliminate activated T cells from the tumor microenvironment and thus contribute to escape from immune surveillance. 相似文献

Human leukocyte inhibitory factor or LIF was generated in vitro by stimulating blood lymphocytes with concanavalin A (Con A). The control and Con A active supernatants were partially purified by gel filtration on Sephadex G-100. The fraction containing LIF (68,000 daltons) activity was then subjected to isoelectric focusing (pH 3 to 10 ampholines) in a sucrose gradient. Two LIF activities were reproducibly recovered by this procedure. One molecular form was found to have an isoelectric point of approximately pH 5.0 and the other approximately pH 8.5. Both molecular species were rechromatographed on Sephadex G-75 and found to have the same apparent m.w. (68 to 75,000). Furthermore, the biologic activity of both factors was destroyed after treatment with diisopropylphosphofluoridate, suggesting that they may be esterases. 相似文献

Inhibitory influence of IL-4 on human B cell responsiveness 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
The role of IL-4 in human B cell activation, proliferation, and differentiation was examined. rIL-2, but not rIL-4, was able to promote maximum proliferation and generation of Ig-secreting cells in cultures of highly purified B cells stimulated with Cowan I Staphylococcus aureus (SA). Addition of rIL-4 to rIL-2-supported cultures of SA-stimulated peripheral blood, spleen, or lymph node B cells dramatically suppressed both proliferation and differentiation. Results from experiments in which rIL-4 was added to culture at progressively later times indicated a requirement for rIL-4 to be present during the first 2 days of a 5-day incubation to cause inhibition of responsiveness. When a two-stage culture system was utilized, rIL-4 was found to support proliferation or differentiation of B cells initially activated with SA for 2 days only minimally. However, rIL-4 did not inhibit responses of SA preactivated B cells supported by IL-2. The presence of rIL-4 during the initial 48-h activation of B cells with SA and rIL-2 resulted in a profound inhibition of the ability of the activated B cells to respond subsequently to rIL-2 or lymphokine-rich T cell supernatants. A similar 48-h incubation with rIL-4 alone without SA had no effect on subsequent B cell responsiveness. The presence of rIFN-gamma during B cell activation decreased the inhibitory effect of IL-4. Other cytokines including IFN-alpha, IL-1, and commercially available low m.w. B cell growth factor also diminished the inhibitory effect of IL-4. These results indicate that IL-4 inhibits the capacity of human B cells to be activated maximally by SA and rIL-2 and therefore suggest a new immunomodulatory role for this cytokine. 相似文献

Leukocyte inhibitory factor (LIF), which was derived from human peripheral blood lymphocytes by stimulation with concanavalin A ad partially purified by Sephadex G-100 gel filtration, inhibited the in vitro spontaneous migration and chemotaxis of human PMN leukocytes as assessed in a Boyden chamber micropore filter assay. The inhibitory activity was attributed to LIF, a principle defined in terms of its inhibition of PMN leukocyte migration from glass capillary tubes since it was preferentially directed to PMN leukocytes as compared to mononuclear leukocytes, exhibited a size comparable to LIF by gel filtration, and was inactivated by diisopropyl fluorophosphate in parallel with LIF. Incubation of PMN leukocytes with LIF released additional inhibitory activity, distinct from LIF, which resembled the neutrophil-immobilizing factor (NIF) by virtue of its approximate m.w. of 4000 by filtration on Sephadex G-25, inactivation by trypsin digestion, and preferential noncytotoxic inhibition of spontaneous migration and chemotaxis of PMN leukocytes as compared to mononuclear leukocytes. Thus LIF inhibits PMN leukocyte migration both by a direct action on the cells and by an amplification pathway that is mediated by low m.w. chemotactic inhibitors similar to NIF. 相似文献

Migration inhibitory factor (MIF) production by skin fibroblast cultures from patients with severe combined immunodeficiency 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The supernatants of fibroblast cultures derived from skin biopsies of each of two patients with severe combined immunodeficiency were studied for the presence of migration inhibitory activity (MIF). The supernatants of both of these fibroblast cultures were found to contain inhibitory activity for the migration of cultured human lymphoid cells (PGLC-33H). This MIF activity was found to share chromatographic similarities with the MIF contained in the supernatants of a lymphoid cell line (PGLC-33H) and phytohemagglutinin (PHA) and tuberculin (PPD) stimulated human peripheral lymphocytes. These data suggest that MIF is not solely a lymphoid product and that severe combined immunodeficiency does not represent a gene deletion for MIF production. 相似文献

In this study we present data on the partial biological and biochemical characterization of guinea pig leukocyte migration inhibition factor (LIF) and migration inhibition factor (MIF). The results indicate that guinea pig LIF and MIF are distinct mediators of cellular immunity, in terms of indicator cells affected and molecular weight. This is in agreement with previous reports showing distinctions between human LIF and MIF. Partial characterization of guinea pig LIF suggested that it is a heat-stable protein of molecular weight 68,000–158,000 and does not contain terminal sialic acid groups. 相似文献

Regulation of lymphokine response during reinfection by influenza virus. Production of a factor that inhibits lymphokine activity 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Mononuclear cells, obtained from the spleens and lungs of influenza virus-seropositive C57BL/6 mice at 2 to 4 days after re-infection with homologous virus (strain A/Bangkok/1/79), produced a low m.w. factor in vitro that prevents the biologic expression, but not production, of the lymphokine, leukocyte migration inhibition factor (LIF). The low m.w. factor inhibited LIF activity without destroying the LIF molecule inasmuch as simple dialysis restored lymphokine activity to culture supernatants. Production of the low m.w. factor was observed from 2 to 4 days after re-infection, at which time the delayed-type hypersensitivity response to viral Ag was suppressed. In contrast, LIF was produced by splenocytes and lung mononuclear cells obtained at all times tested after re-infection (from 2 to 30 days). Production of the low m.w. factor required re-infection of influenza A virus-seropositive mice with type A virus; re-infection with influenza B virus failed to induce production. Ag specificity was also required in vitro for splenocytes to produce the factor; cells from type A virus-re-infected mice required type A Ag stimulation. Cell depletion studies with mAb plus C revealed that macrophages and T cells along with Ag stimulation were required for factor production by spleen cells. However, mononuclear cells obtained within 4 days from the lungs of re-infected mice did not require in vitro Ag stimulation for production of the low m.w. factor, and factor production was dependent upon the presence of CD4+ (L3T4) cells in the culture. Fractionation of culture supernatants over a Sephadex G-50 column indicated that the factor had a molecular mass of 2 to 3 kDa, and by FPLC chromatofocusing over a Mono P column, the factor eluted at a pH of approximately 8.2. Thus, re-exposure of influenza virus-seropositive mice to homologous virus resulted in the production of a low m.w. factor that prevented the biologic expression of LIF, but not its production. Lymphokines are an important component of the delayed-type hypersensitivity response; the presence of mononuclear cells secreting a low m.w. factor and LIF concomitantly at the site of virus replication (lungs) and the capacity of the factor to block the biologic expression of LIF in vitro suggest that the factor may have a role in the regulation of a delayed-type hypersensitivity response in vivo during re-infection. 相似文献

Lymphokine stimulation of human macrophage C2 production is partially due to interferon-gamma 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Monocyte complement stimulator (MCS), a product of T lymphocytes, is defined by its ability to stimulate the synthesis and secretion of the second complement component (C2) by monocytes. Most macrophage-activating factor (MAF) activity present in lymphokine-rich culture supernatants has recently been found to be due to interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). We therefore hypothesized that IFN-gamma may have MCS activity as well. We tested recombinant, E. coli-derived, human IFN-gamma (rIFN-gamma) for its effects on C2 production by adherent peripheral blood monocytes and U937 cells, a human monocytic cell line. Recombinant IFN-gamma in concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 300 U/ml (0.003 to 8.8 ng/ml) stimulates C2 production by both cell populations. Exposure of responding cells for at least 24 hr is required for maximal stimulation. To determine the contribution of IFN-gamma toward total MCS activity in crude lymphokine-rich supernatants, we employed a solid-phase immunoabsorption technique with the use of a monoclonal anti-IFN-gamma antibody. This technique removed all IFN-gamma detectable by a sensitive ELISA, but MCS activity was decreased by only 40 to 50%. Additionally, MCS activity of these supernatants did not correlate with IFN-gamma content as determined by ELISA. By using another method to eliminate IFN-gamma activity, acid dialysis destroyed all rIFN-gamma activity, as measured by stimulation of U937 C2 synthesis, but eliminated only 30 to 67% of MCS activity from crude lymphokine preparations. Thus IFN-gamma stimulates C2 production by monocytes and U937 cells and apparently accounts for some, but not all, MCS activity present in lymphokine-rich supernatants. Other lymphokines are present in such supernatants that also possess this activity. 相似文献

Identification of exposed surface glycoproteins of four human bladder carcinoma cell lines 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Three cell surface protein-specific methods were used to radiolabel the major glycoproteins of four human bladder carcinoma cell lines: The well-differentiated lines RT112 and TR4 and more anaplastic lines T24 and EJ. Five acidic glycoproteins iodinated in all lines by the lactoperoxidase/125I method were designated CP-175/5.8-6.0 (apparent molecular weight X 10(-3)/pl of iodoprotein), GP-155/5.0-5.3, GP-145/4.9-5.2, GP-130/4.8-5.5 and GP-110/4.9-5.3. Another iodinated glycoprotein, GP-200/5.5-6.0, was prominently labelled in RT112 and RT4 but was not detected in T24 or EJ. GP-200 as well as GP-175, GP-155 and GP-145 were not detected by the galactose oxidase/NaB(3H)4 method and were poorly labelled by the neuraminidase-galactose oxidase/NaB(3H)4 and NaIO4/NaB(3H)4 labelling methods. The major sialogalactoproteins identified in the four lines by the neuraminidase-galactose oxidase/NaB(3H)4 and NaIO4/NaB(3H)4 methods were GP-130, and a duplet of GP-90 and GP-80 which were poorly iodinated by lactoperoxidase/125I. The galactose oxidase/NaB(3H)4 reaction was increased by between 4- and 10-fold and many additional glycoproteins were labelled after neuraminidase treatment, indicating that the cell surface galactose and N-acetylgalactosamine residues of glycoproteins are highly sialylated. In cell lines RT112 and RT4 there was prominent labelling of very high molecular weight sialogalactoconjugates that was not present in extracts of T24 and EJ. 相似文献

Treatment of mouse spleen cells with periodate (NaIO4) or with neuraminidase and galactose oxidase (NAGO) induces blastogenesis and renders the cells cytotoxic to mastocytoma (P815) target cells. Treatment of target cells (P815 cells and turkey erythrocytes) with NaIO4 or with NAGO renders them susceptible to cytolysis by untreated mouse spleen cells. The cytotoxicity induced by NaIO4 is reduced upon reacting the NaIO4-treated, effector or target cells with borohydride or hydroxylamine. Thus the formation of free surface aldehydes on either the effector or target cell induced a cytotoxic effect. It is postulated that cross-linkage via a Schiff base between effector and target cell initiates the cytotoxic effect. Cytotoxicity induced by NaIO4 or NAGO is immunologically nonspecific and is independent of major antigenic differences between effector and target cells. Phagocytic cells are not involved in NaIO4-or NAGO-induced cytotoxicity toward P815 target cells. 相似文献

OVA-specific T cells were immortalized by infection with radiation leukemia virus (RadLV). Some clones derived from such population were shown to exhibit helper activity. We then tested clones without such function and found among them some that secreted macrophage migration inhibition factor (MIF) and leukocyte migration inhibition factor (LIF) upon exposure to the antigen in vitro. The lymphokine-producing clones, which were Thy-1+, Ly-1+ and Ly-2-, did not secrete MIF and LIF constitutively. Like other antigen-specific T cells, the immortalized clones could not be stimulated by free soluble antigen but required macrophages for presentation and for triggering the lymphokine production. The antigen-activated clones exclusively produced MIF and LIF, but not interleukin 2 or colony-stimulating factor. They neither provided helper activity nor induced delayed-type hypersensitivity. The data suggest that the T-cell clones carry the antigen receptors and that their antigen-inducible biological function is restricted to the migration inhibitory factor production. 相似文献

To investigate the mechanisms that regulate the action of interleukin 2 (IL 2) and possibly limit its activity, we screened supernatants of mouse spleen cell cultures which had been stimulated with concanavalin A (Con A) for their ability to inhibit IL 2-mediated proliferation of a cloned IL 2-dependent line. Inhibitory activities with m.w. of 10,000 to 12,000 and 60,000 to 80,000 daltons could be identified in supernatants of both L3T4+ and Ly-2+ T cells, but not in supernatants of Con A or lipopolysaccharide-stimulated B cells. Maximal inhibitory activity was observed after 3 to 4 days of stimulation, and this inhibitory activity could be overcome by increasing the stimulatory concentration of IL 2. When the factor was further purified by reverse-phase high pressure liquid chromatography, it eluted as a single peak with an m.w. of 11,000 to 12,000 daltons which inhibited IL 2- but not IL 3-dependent proliferation. The mechanisms by which this new lymphokine might play in the control of the clonal expansion of T lymphocytes are discussed. 相似文献

Purified plasma membranes of rabbit thymocytes are exposed to sodium periodate and galactose oxidase at conditions similar to those used to induce mitogenic transformation of lymphocytes. The membrane proteins are then fractionated by dodecyl sulfate poly-acrylamide gel electrophoresis. At concentrations of 0.005 M, Na IO4 cross-links 55,000 D and 110,000 D glycoproteins which are known to specifically bind concanavalin A. Galactose oxidase has a similar cross-linking effect, but, at the same time causes proteolytic degradation of membrane proteins. Our data indicate that oxidizing agents, like NaIO4 and galactose oxidase, can indeed cross-link receptors of the thymocyte plasma membrane as has often been proposed as a possible mechanism of their action. 相似文献

Interactions between human T and B lymphocytes and between lymphocyte subpopulations and accessory cells in lymphokine synthesis were investigated. The cells were stimulated with leukoagglutinin (LA), concanavalin A (Con A), protein A (prot A) and anti-β2-microglobulin (anti-β2m). The presence of leukocyte inhibitory factor (LIF) in the culture supernatants was tested by the agarose-migration method. The results indicated that monocytes augmented LIF synthesis of T cells but suppressed that of B cells. Monocyte-helper effect was mediated by both cell-cell contact and soluble factors. In addition, T lymphocytes were found to augment B-cell LIF production. B lymphocytes enhanced Con A- but suppressed LA-induced LIF production by T cells. T-cell/B-cell collaboration was based on a direct cell-cell contact and no soluble factors were found. 相似文献

The Ebstein-Barr virus-transformed human lymphoblastoid cell line PGLC-33H releases a migration inhibitory factor (MIF) of MW ~ 20,000 daltons. This MIF may appear free in serum-free culture supernatants or may be associated with a carrier material as a complex of MW ~ 60,000 daltons, from which the MIF can be dissociated. The free form of MIF possesses, or is associated with a suppressor activity for pokeweed mitogen-induced immunoglobulin synthesis. This suppressor activity is heat (56 °C) and acid pH stable but 2-mercaptoethanol sensitive and cannot be attributed to α-interferon or lymphotoxin. 相似文献

Oxidation of viable rat lymph node lymphocytes with either periodate or a combination of neuraminidase and galactose oxidase (NGO), followed by reduction with tritiated sodium borohydride, labels similar sets of cell-surface molecules as assessed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis. Periodate and NGO induce blast transformation of lymph node lymphocytes (oxidative mitogenesis), and borohydride reduction inhibits the proliferative response. Thus, it is inferred that some or all of the glycoproteins that are labeled with tritiated borohydride may be involved in mediating the stimulation caused by the oxidizing agents. Treatment of lymph node lymphocytes with 5 units/ml papain abolishes the response to periodate or NGO but does not significantly affect the response to Con A. At the same time, papain treatment eliminates the labeled bands representing six high m.w. glycoproteins (175,000, 170,000, 160,000, 155,000, 100,000, and 70,000 daltons). No significant effect is seen on the labeling of the other components visualized in the slab gels. The results implicate the subset of six high m.w. papain-sensitive sialoglycoproteins in mediating oxidative mitogenesis of rat lymph node lymphocytes. 相似文献
