Human recombinant IL-1beta and TNFalpha have been previously used to induce a cytokine response in canine chondrocytes. In order to establish this functional relation in a homologous system in vitro, we have developed both 2D and 3D models of inflammatory arthritis using canine recombinant cytokines in canine articular chondrocytes. IL-1beta and TNFalpha were cloned and subsequently expressed in Escherichia coli. The purified recombinant canine cytokines were used to simulate inflammation in vitro and the expression of typical inflammation markers such as proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1beta, IL-6, IL-8, GM-CSF and TNFalpha), enzyme mediators (MMP-3 MMP-13, iNOS, COX-2) and their catabolites (NO, PGE(2)) was measured. High expression of proinflammatory cytokines, enzyme mediators and their catabolites was only observed in IL-1beta/TNFalpha stimulated cells. We conclude that the canine IL-1beta and TNFalpha generated in this study are biologically active and equally effective in the canine cell culture systems. Inducing an inflammatory pathway by canine exogenous cytokines in canine chondrocytes provides a useful tool for the study of canine inflammatory arthritis. 相似文献

This review will focus the roles of TNF-alpha, IL-1 alpha, and IL-1 beta in the mammalian testis and in two testicular pathologies,
testicular torsion and orchitis. TNF alpha in the testis is produced by round spermatids, pachytene spermatocytes, and testicular
macrophages. The type 1 TNF receptor has been found on Sertoli and Leydig cells and numerous studies suggest a paracrine mode
of action for TNF alpha in the normal testis. IL-1 alpha has been reported to be produced by Sertoli cells, testicular macrophages,
and possibly postmeiotic germ cells. IL-1 receptors have been reported on Sertoli cells, Leydig cells, testicular macrophages,
and germ cells suggesting both autocrine and paracrine functions. While these proinflammatory cytokines have important roles
in normal testicular homeostasis, an elevation of their expression can lead to testicular dysfunctions. Testicular torsion
is a clinical pathology with results in testicular ischemia and surgical intervention is often required for reperfusion. A
pivotal role for IL-1beta in the pathology of testicular torsion has been recently described whereby an increase in IL-1beta
production after reperfusion of the testis is correlated with the activation of the stress-related kinase, c-jun N-terminal
kinase, and ultimately resulting in neutrophil recruitment to the testis and germ cell apoptosis. In autoimmune orchitis,
on the other hand, TNF alpha produced by T-lymphocytes and macrophages of the testis has been implicated in the development
and progression of the disease. Thus, both proinflammatory cytokines, TNF alpha and IL-1, have significant roles in normal
testicular functions as well as in certain testicular pathologies. 相似文献

Chronic inflammation and proinflammatory cytokines as well as T helper type 2 (Th2) cytokines have been involved in the pathogenesis of pulmonary injury and lung fibrosis. The actual role of IL-10 in lung fibrosis is still unclear because this cytokine has been identified as Th2 but possesses strong anti-inflammatory properties. To better dissect the potential role of IL-10 in silica-induced lung fibrosis, IL-10 was overexpressed in the lung of mice by adenoviral gene transfer during the inflammatory (administered at day -1) or the fibrotic (administered at day +30) stages of the disease. Pulmonary overexpression of IL-10 during both silica-induced lung inflammation and fibrosis exacerbated the fibrotic lesions as estimated by the measurement of hydroxyproline and other biochemical and histological markers. Increased expression of IL-10 significantly enhanced the number of lung lymphocytes and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid IgG1 but not IgG2a levels, indicating the induction of a Th2-like immune response. In addition, the production of the profibrotic Th2 cytokines IL-4 and IL-13 was also significantly increased upon IL-10 overexpression. No difference in transforming growth factor-beta or PGE(2) production was noted after adenoviral IL-10 treatment of silica-treated mice. Together, these data indicate that the increased expression of IL-10 significantly contributed to silica-induced lung fibrosis by exacerbating the Th2 response and the production of the profibrotic cytokines IL-4 and IL-13. 相似文献

Laboratory-reared pink and chum salmon juveniles (approximately 2g) received an intraperitoneal injection with a commercial, unadjuvanted Aeromonas salmonicida bacterin or sterile saline. Relative to elongation factor-1A, expression levels of genes encoding the proinflammatory cytokines interleukin-1beta-1 (IL-1beta), tumour necrosis factor-alpha-1 (TNFalpha) and interleukin-8 (IL-8) in pools of kidney and liver were examined 6- and 24-h after injection. Expression of IL-1beta was significantly elevated in pink and chum salmon by 6-h, and declined in pink salmon but not in chum salmon by 24-h. Similarly, expression of TNFalpha was significantly elevated in both species at 6h and only in chum salmon after 24-h. Expression of IL-8 was significantly elevated in both species at 6- and 24-h after injection. Expression of the three proinflammatory cytokine genes differed between salmon species both in the timing and magnitude of their expression. The significance of these differences with respect to immune function in these fish requires further research. 相似文献

Inflammation in the middle ear mucosa, which can be provoked by different primary factors such as bacterial and viral infection, local allergic reactions and reflux, is the crucial event in the pathogenesis of otitis media with effusion (OME). Unresolved acute inflammatory responses or defective immunoregulation of middle inflammation can promote chronic inflammatory processes and stimulate the chronic condition of OME. Cytokines are the central molecular regulators of middle ear inflammation and can switch the acute phase of inflammation in the chronic stage and induce molecular-pathological processes leading to the histopathological changes accompanying OME. In this review we present cytokines identified in otitis media, immunoregulatory [interleukin (IL)-2, IL-10, transforming growth factor-beta]) and allergy associated (IL-4, IL-5, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor), as crucial molecular regulators, responsible for chronic inflammation in the middle ear and the chronic condition of OME. 相似文献

Inflammation induces myeloid-derived suppressor cells that facilitate tumor progression 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

Epidemiological and experimental observations support the hypothesis that chronic inflammation contributes to cancer development and progression; however, the mechanisms underlying the relationship between inflammation and cancer are poorly understood. To study these mechanisms, we have transfected the mouse 4T1 mammary carcinoma with the proinflammatory cytokine IL-1beta to produce a chronic inflammatory microenvironment at the tumor site. Mice with 4T1/IL-1beta tumors have a decreased survival time and elevated levels of immature splenic Gr1+CD11b+ myeloid-derived cells. These myeloid suppressor cells (MSC) are present in many patients with cancer and inhibit the activation of CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes. 4T1/IL-1beta-induced MSC do not express the IL-1R, suggesting that the cytokine does not directly activate MSC. Neither T or B cells nor NKT cells are involved in the IL-1beta-induced increase of MSC because RAG2-/- mice and nude mice with 4T1/IL-1beta tumors also have elevated MSC levels. MSC levels remain elevated in mice inoculated with 4T1/IL-1beta even after the primary tumor is surgically removed, indicating that the IL-1beta effect is long lived. Collectively, these findings suggest that inflammation promotes malignancy via proinflammatory cytokines, such as IL-1beta, which enhance immune suppression through the induction of MSC, thereby counteracting immune surveillance and allowing the outgrowth and proliferation of malignant cells. 相似文献

Hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) are key players in liver fibrosis and regeneration via collagen degradation and synthesis. These phenomena involve inflammatory cytokines released from non-parenchymal liver cells such as Kupffer cells. Although the effects of individual cytokines on many cell types have been investigated in various conditions, such as inflammation and tissue fibrosis, investigating the effect of combined cytokines would further our understanding of the regulatory mechanisms in tissue fibrosis. Here, we report the effect of multiple cytokine combinations on primary HSCs. We first examined the effect of individual cytokines and then the simultaneous exposure of different cytokines, including interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-1 alpha (IL-1α), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β), on matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP1) gene expression in primary HSCs. We observed that the combination of all five cytokines induced higher levels of MMP1 gene expression. Of these cytokines, TNF-α and IL-1α were found to be the key cytokines for not only inducing MMP1 expression, but also increasing α-smooth muscle actin gene expression. In conclusion, the combined treatment of TNF-α and IL-1α on HSCs had an enhanced effect on the expression of the fibrotic genes, MMP1 and α-smooth muscle actin, so appears to be an important regulator for tissue regeneration. This finding suggests that stimulation with combined anti-fibrotic cytokines is a potential approach in the development of a novel therapy for the recovery of liver fibrosis. 相似文献

Interleukin-1alpha (IL-1alpha) is constitutively produced by Sertoli cells in adult rat testes. We demonstrate here that adult rats initiate expression of IL-1alpha and IL-1beta in testicular macrophages and decrease plasma testosterone by 60%, 2 h after administration of endotoxin. The macrophage activation was accompanied by downregulation of IL-1alpha mRNA expression in Sertoli cells. Despite increased tissue concentrations of IL-1alpha and IL-1beta immunoreactive protein, the level of bioactive IL-1 in the testis remained unchanged. Testes from prepubertal rats responded similarly to endotoxin, but lacked constitutive expression of IL-1alpha. We conclude that endotoxin-induced inflammation involves the testis by local macrophage activation and cytokine secretion. The paracrine mechanisms regulating IL-1 bioactivity in the testis are unknown but may represent a means to protect germ cells from noxious effects of inflammation. 相似文献

Differential regulation of human monocyte programmed cell death (apoptosis) by chemotactic factors and pro-inflammatory cytokines 总被引:27,自引:0,他引:27
In the absence of appropriate stimuli, monocytes undergo programmed cell death (PCD) or apoptosis. IL-1 beta and TNF-alpha prevent monocyte PCD, which suggests that viability may be regulated by biologically active peptides released during inflammation. To explore this possibility, we evaluated several chemotactic factors and pro-inflammatory cytokines for their ability to regulate PCD. The recruitment factors, FMLP, C fragment C5a, monocyte chemotactic protein-1, or transforming growth factor-beta 1, were incapable of rescuing monocytes from PCD nor did they enhance PCD, whereas several inflammatory cytokines in addition to IL-1 beta and TNF-alpha, including granulocyte-monocyte-CSF and IFN-gamma, prevented monocyte PCD provided that sufficient levels of these cytokines were continuously maintained in the cultures. Cytokine-mediated inhibition of PCD could be blocked by specific antisera, ruling out potential effects caused by LPS contamination. When tested at equivalent concentrations, IL-2, IL-4, and IL-6 had no effect on PCD indicating selectivity in cytokine modulation of monocyte PCD. Because monocytes produce IL-1 beta, TNF-alpha, and granulocyte-monocyte CSF when activated, the data suggest autocrine as well as paracrine control of cell survival and accumulation. The results also suggest that monocytes recruited to a site of inflammation will undergo PCD in the absence of specific cytokines and/or other stimuli that block this process. 相似文献

Articular cartilage is an avascular, non-insulin-sensitive tissue that utilizes glucose as the main energy source, a precursor for glycosaminoglycan synthesis, and a regulator of gene expression. Facilitated glucose transport represents the first rate-limiting step in glucose metabolism. Previously, we demonstrated that glucose transport in chondrocytes is regulated by proinflammatory cytokines via upregulation of GLUT mRNA and protein expression. The objective of the present study was to determine differences in molecular mechanisms regulating glucose transport in chondrocytes stimulated with the anabolic transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) vs. the catabolic and proinflammatory cytokine IL-1beta. Both TGF-beta1 and IL-1beta accelerate glucose transport in chondrocytes. Although both IL-1beta and TGF-beta1 enhance glucose transport in chondrocytes to a similar magnitude, IL-1beta induces significantly higher levels of lactate. TGF-beta1-stimulated glucose transport is not associated with increased expression or membrane incorporation of GLUT1, -3, -6, -8, and -10 and depends on PKC and ERK activation. In contrast, IL-1beta-stimulated glucose transport is accompanied by increased expression and membrane incorporation of GLUT1 and -6 and depends upon activation of PKC and p38 MAP kinase. In conclusion, anabolic and catabolic stimuli regulate facilitated glucose transport in human articular chondrocytes via different effector and signaling mechanisms, and they have distinct effects on glycolysis. 相似文献

Interleukin-1beta induces macrophage inflammatory protein-1beta expression in human hepatocytes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The investigation of factors that regulate expression of CC-chemokines, the important mediators in immune responses and inflammation processes, has an important significance in understanding the immunopathogenesis of liver diseases. We examined the role of interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), a multifunctional cytokine, in regulating the expression of macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1beta in human hepatocytes (Huh7 and HepG2). IL-1beta significantly enhanced MIP-1beta expression in these cells at both the mRNA and protein levels. Cytokine-enriched supernatants from monocyte-derived macrophage (MDM) cultures also induced MIP-1beta expression. IL-1beta is responsible for MDM supernatant-mediated up-regulation of MIP-1beta since the antibody to IL-1beta abolished MDM supernatant action. Investigation of the mechanism involved in MIP-1beta induction by IL-1beta showed that IL-1beta activated the nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB) promoter in Huh7 cells. In addition, caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), a specific inhibitor of the activation of NF-kappaB, not only abolished IL-1beta-mediated NF-kappaB promoter activation, but also blocked IL-1beta-induced MIP-1beta expression. These observations suggest that IL-1beta-mediated up-regulation of MIP-1beta production in the hepatic cells may contribute a critical mechanism for continuous recruitment of inflammatory cell to liver and maintenance of inflammation. 相似文献

Regulation of rat pulmonary artery endothelial cell transforming growth factor-beta production by IL-1 beta and tumor necrosis factor-alpha. 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Recent studies suggest that transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) production is up-regulated at sites of tissue injury, inflammation and repair, or fibrosis. Endothelial cells represent a potentially important in vivo source of TGF-beta; however, the identity of endogenous modulators of TGF-beta production by these cells remains unclear. To address this issue, the effects of the cytokines, IL-1 beta, and TNF-alpha on TGF-beta production by rat pulmonary artery endothelial cells were examined. Conditioned media from cells treated with 0 to 20 ng/ml IL-1 beta and/or TNF-alpha were assayed for TGF-beta activity using a mink lung epithelial cell line. The results show that rat pulmonary artery endothelial cells secreted undetectable amounts of active TGF-beta in the absence of cytokines. However, upon acidification of the conditioned media before assay, a time-dependent increase in TGF-beta activity was noted in media from both untreated and cytokine-treated cells. However, both IL-1 beta and TNF-alpha treatment caused the secretion of significantly greater amounts of TGF-beta activity than control cells, in a dose-dependent manner, with maximal response obtained at cytokine doses of greater than 10 ng/ml. At equivalent doses of cytokine tested, the magnitude of the response was significantly greater with IL-1 beta. These responses were paralleled by increases in steady state mRNA levels for TGF-beta 1. Addition of both cytokines resulted in a synergistic response. Synergism with IL-1 beta was also noted with the fibrogenic agent bleomycin. Kinetic studies indicated that a minimum of 4 h of treatment with either IL-1 beta or TNF-alpha was required for detection of significant increases in either secreted TGF-beta activity or steady state TGF-beta 1 mRNA levels. Thus, endothelial cells could play a role in various TGF-beta-dependent processes in vivo, in situations wherein IL-1 beta and/or TNF-alpha may be present at comparable concentrations. 相似文献

Cytokine Actions in the Central Nervous System 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Etty N. Benveniste 《Cytokine & growth factor reviews》1998,9(3-4):259-275
Cytokines and chemokines have been implicated in contributing to the initiation, propagation and regulation of immune and inflammatory responses. Also, these soluble mediators have important roles in contributing to a wide array of neurological diseases such as multiple sclerosis, AIDS Dementia Complex, stroke and Alzheimers disease. Cytokines and chemokines are synthesized within the central nervous system by glial cells and neurons, and have modulatory functions on these same cells via interactions with specific cell-surface receptors. In this article, I will discuss the ability of glial cells and neurons to both respond to, and synthesize, a variety of cytokines. The emphasize will be on three select cytokines; interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), a cytokine with predominantly proinflammatory effects; interleukin-6 (IL-6), a cytokine with both pro- and anti-inflammatory properties; and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β), a cytokine with predominantly immunosuppressive actions. The significance of these cytokines to neurological diseases with an immunological component will be discussed. 相似文献

Interleukin (IL)-18, a member of the IL-1 cytokine family, is an important mediator of peripheral inflammation and host defence responses. IL-1 is a key proinflammatory cytokine in the brain, but the role of IL-18 in the CNS is not yet clear. The objective of this study was to investigate the actions of IL-18 on mouse glial cells. IL-18 induced intracellular expression of IL-1 alpha and proIL-1 beta, and release of IL-6 from mixed glia. Treatment of lipopolysaccharide-primed microglia with adenosine triphosphate (ATP), an endogenous secondary stimulus, induced IL-1 beta and IL-18 release. Although deletion of the IL-18 gene did not affect IL-1 beta expression or release in this experimental paradigm, IL-1 beta knockout microglia released significantly less IL-18 compared to wild-type microglia. In addition, ATP induced release of mature IL-1 beta from IL-18-primed microglia. These data suggest that IL-18 may contribute to inflammatory responses in the brain, and demonstrate that, in spite of several common features, IL-18 and IL-1 beta differ in their regulation and actions. 相似文献
