Interleukin-3 is a multipotential hematopoietic growth factor, which like other colony stimulating factors (CSFs) is effective "in vitro" stimulation of the mature cells function. It was found that IL-3 synergistically with GM-CSF and G-CSF stimulated the proliferation of the granulocytes. Therefore the purpose of this investigation was the evaluation "in vivo" of the influence of IL-3 on the phagocytosis, bactericidal activity, and enzyme activities of granulocytes. IL-3 was injected into mice subcutaneously during 5 days in dose 1 microgram/kg/d. The examination of the percent of cells phagocytizing bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus), NBT test and bactericidal activity, were performed every day and evident increase of the tested parameters was found. Additionally the enzyme activities in primary granules were measured and showed on increase of acid phosphatase and peroxidase activity. 相似文献

Phagocytosis and oxidative metabolism of granulocytes in mice after stem cell factor (SCF) injection
Czygier M Mroczko B Szmitkowski M Dakowicz L Szewc A 《Medycyna do?wiadczalna i mikrobiologia》1999,51(1-2):175-182
Stem Cell Factor (SCF) can stimulate the growth and development of primitive multipotential and unipotential hematopoietic stem cells, either alone or in combination with other cytokines such as Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and Granulocyte-CSF (G-CSF). It was found that these cytokines can also stimulate the function of granulocytes but there is no information concerning SCF influence on the function of these mature cells. SCF was injected into mice subcutaneously during 5 consecutive days in a dose of 1 microgram/kg/d. An examination of the percentage of phagocytic granulocytes and NBT test was performed. The activity of acid phosphatase (AcP), alkaline phosphatase (AP), peroxidase (MPO) and esterase were determined by cytochemistry methods. On the basis of obtained results we can conclude that SCF evidently increases all tested parameters connected with the metabolism of phagocytosis. 相似文献

Granulocyte interactions with GM-CSF and G-CSF secretion by endothelial cells and monocytes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We have, in previous studies, characterized the cytokine and cellular regulation of GM-CSF and G-CSF production by monocytes and endothelial cells. In this study, we investigated the regulatory role of granulocytes. The addition of granulocytes to endotoxin-stimulated monocytes dose-dependently decreased both GM-CSF and G-CSF concentrations, presumably by absorbing the cytokines. A similar dose-dependent decrease in GM-CSF concentration was found when granulocytes were added to IL-1-stimulated endothelial cells. In contrast, G-CSF secretion by endothelial cells responded to granulocytes in a biphasic fashion. At low granulocyte concentrations, endothelial cells responded with an increased G-CSF secretion, but at high concentrations of granulocytes G-CSF secretion was down modulated. Our results suggest that there exist two loops between granulocytes and endothelial cells for regulating G-CSF activity. Granulocytes can stimulate G-CSF secretion by activated endothelial cells but can also decrease the biological activity by absorbing the cytokine. These mechanisms might be involved in the regulation of the local and systemic levels of granulocytes. 相似文献

Activation of rainbow trout macrophages 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Rainbow trout peritoneal macrophages were stimulated in vitro using Concanavalin A (Con A) and in vivo using formalin-killed Aeromonas salmonicida in Freund's incomplete adjuvant (FIA). Whether these cells had been activated was determined by the measurements of oxygen anions (NBT reduction), H2 O2 production (oxidation of phenol red), RNA synthesis (3 H-uridine incorporation), acid phosphatase activity and bactericidal activity.
In vitro -stimulated macrophages showed an increased NBT reduction and3 H-uridine incorporation over a range of Con A concentrations, compared with untreated control macrophages, but no detectable increases in H2 O2 production or bactericidal activity were observed. On the other hand, in vivo -stimulated peritoneal cells showed increases in all the assays compared with FIA-elicited control cells, and were considered to have been activated. 相似文献

We investigated the interaction between GM-CSF and its receptor on human granulocytes and on several human tumor cell lines. Specific high-affinity binding for GM-CSF was characterized by Scatchard plot analysis. The specific radioactivity of the 125I-labeled derivative of rH. GM-CSF was determined by self-displacement analysis and calculated to be 30 microCi/micrograms. The maximum concentration of binding sites (B max) in granulocytes was 40 fmol/mg protein (2,200 molecules GM-CSF bound/cell) and the dissociation constant (KD) was 0.42 nM. No binding sites for GM-CSF were found in two lung cancer cell lines, SCLC-16HV and NCI-N417 or in the urinary bladder carcinoma cell line 5637, whereas the promyelocytic leukemia cell line HL60 was positive for GM-CSF binding. Time course experiments showed maximum binding of GM-CSF in granulocytes after an incubation period of 60 min and a decrease in binding after an incubation period of 2 h. In parallel, we found a maximum biological signal when granulocytes were preincubated for 90 min with GM-CSF, and a decrease after an incubation time of 120 min. Preincubation of the cells with rH. GM-CSF induced an enhancement of the production of activated oxygen species by the cells in response to PMA. 相似文献

The somatostatin analogue, TT-232 inhibits cell proliferation and induces apoptosis in a variety of tumor cells both in vivo and in vitro. While the early transient activation of Erk/MAPK was found to be important for the induction of cell cycle arrest, the signaling pathway leading to the activation of Erk/MAPK had not been fully established. Here we present evidence that activation of the Erk/MAPK pathway by TT-232 involves PI 3-kinase, PKCdelta and the protein tyrosine phosphatase alpha (PTPalpha). We show a physical interaction of PI 3-kinase and PKCdelta with PTPalpha and show that the tyrosine phosphatase plays a role in the activation of MAPK. In this process, PTPalpha Ser-180 and Ser-204 phosphorylation is critical for the induction of phosphatase activity, which is required for dephosphorylation of pp60(c-src). Taken together, we demonstrate the physical and functional association between PI 3-kinase, PKCdelta and PTPalpha in a signaling complex that mediates the antitumor activity of the somatostatin analogue TT-232. 相似文献

Abstract: Tyrosine hydroxylase in rat retina is activated in vivo as a consequence of photic stimulation. Tyrosine hydroxylase in crude extracts of dark-adapted retinas is activated in vitro by incubation under conditions that stimulate protein phosphorylation by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. Comparison of the activations of the enzyme by photic stimulation in vivo and protein phosphorylation in vitro demonstrated several similarities. Both treatments decreased the apparent K m of the enzyme for the synthetic pterin cofactor 6MPH4 . Both treatments also produced the same change in the relationships of tyrosine hydroxylase activity to assay pH. When retinal extracts containing tyrosine hydroxylase activated either in vivo by photic stimulation or in vitro by protein phosphorylation were incubated at 25°C, the enzyme was inactivated in a time-dependent manner. The inactivation of the enzyme following both activation in vivo and activation in vitro was partially inhibited by sodium pyrophosphate, an inhibitor of phosphoprotein phosphatase. In addition to these similarities, the activation of tyrosine hydroxylase in vivo by photic stimulation was not additive to the activation in vitro by protein phosphorylation. These data indicate that the mechanism for the activation of tyrosine hydroxylase that occurs as a consequence of light-induced increases of neuronal activity is similar to the mechanism for activation of the enzyme in vitro by protein phosphorylation. This observation suggests that the activation of retinal tyrosine hydroxylase in vivo may be mediated by phosphorylation of tyrosine hydroxylase or some effector molecule associated with the enzyme. 相似文献

The production of nitric oxide (NO) and reactive oxygen intermediates in granulocytes and macrophages from healthy volunteers, infected in vitro with live Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) mycobacteria, was estimated. Significant differences in the biochemical reactions induced by BCG bacilli in granulocytes and monocytes are described. The activity of phagocytes was also investigated in the cultures with cytokines: IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha, GM-CSF, IL-4. 相似文献

Leukocyte--plasma suspensions and plasma from tumour patients have been tested in vitro against staphylococcus aureus for bactericidal capacity. Blood was collected during surgical intervention from peripheral vein and from the nearest point of vein to tumour. Second collection of peripheral blood was done 2--3 weeks later after surgery. Decrease of bactericidal activity of plasma has been found in blood collected from vein near the tumour. We can suggest that tumours release some factors disturbing the bactericidal capacity or that the tumour absorbs some factors of plasma or changes the functions of granulocytes. 相似文献

Modulation of protein kinase FA /glycogen synthase kinase-3α (kinase FA /GSK-3α) by reversible tyrosine phosphorylation/dephosphorylation was investigated. In addition to genistein, other protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) inhibitors, such as tyrphostin A47 and B42, also could induce tyrosine dephosphorylation and inactivation of kinase FA /GSK-3α in A431 cells, and this process was found to be reversible. Pretreatment of the cells with 100 μM orthovanadate, a protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) inhibitor, could diminish significantly the effects of PTK inhibitors on both enzyme activity and phosphotyrosine content of the kinase, suggesting that the PTK inhibitors induced tyrosine dephosphorylation/inactivation of this kinase is mediated by orthovanadate-sensitive PTP(s) in A431 cells. Moreover, the phosphotyrosine moiety of kinase FA /GSK-3α was found to be highly turned over in resting cells. Interestingly, we found that the less active, tyrosine-dephosphorylated form of kinase FA /GSK-3α immunoprecipitated from genistein-treated cells was able to reactivate partially with concomitant rephosphorylation of tyrosine residue in vitro. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that tyrosine phosphorylation and concomitant activation of kinase FA /GSK-3α can be carried out both in vitro and in vivo and an in vivo phosphatase activity may function in antagonism to PTK activation of kinase FA /GSK-3α.

To show possible mechanisms of the inhibitory effect of rifampicin, lincomycin and methicillin on the functional activity of the phagocytes, their effect on the intracellular bactericidal systems and the state of the regulatory function of the macrophages in the immunogenesis were studied. Correlation between the decrease in the values of the phagocytosis completeness and the changes in the activity of the myeloperoxidase bactericidal system and the alkaline phosphatase in the neutrophilic granulocytes was shown. The decrease in the number of the antibody producers at the maximum level of the immune response to administration of sheep red cells as the test antigen due to rifampicin or lincomycin was not accompanied by impairment of the immune regulatory function of the macrophages. 相似文献

Growth factor deprivation is a physiological mechanism to regulate cell death. We utilize an interleukin-2 (IL-2)-dependent murine T-cell line to identify proteins that interact with Bad upon IL-2 stimulation or deprivation. Using the yeast two-hybrid system, glutathione S-transferase (GST) fusion proteins and co-immunoprecipitation techniques, we found that Bad interacts with protein phosphatase 1alpha (PP1alpha). Serine phosphorylation of Bad is induced by IL-2 and its dephosphorylation correlates with appearance of apoptosis. IL-2 deprivation induces Bad dephosphorylation, suggesting the involvement of a serine phosphatase. A serine/threonine phosphatase activity, sensitive to the phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid, was detected in Bad immunoprecipitates from IL-2-stimulated cells, increasing after IL-2 deprivation. This enzymatic activity also dephosphorylates in vivo (32)P-labeled Bad. Treatment of cells with okadaic acid blocks Bad dephosphorylation and prevents cell death. Finally, Ras activation controls the catalytic activity of PP1alpha. These results strongly suggest that Bad is an in vitro and in vivo substrate for PP1alpha phosphatase and that IL-2 deprivation-induced apoptosis may operate by regulating Bad phosphorylation through PP1alpha phosphatase, whose enzymatic activity is regulated by Ras. 相似文献

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) has been reported to be a potent anti-inflammatory peptide with ability to directly modulate activity of granulocytes and macrophages. The present study aimed to correlate the effects of NPY in vivo on lipopolysaccharide-induced air-pouch exudates cells and in vitro on peripheral blood leukocytes functions. The role of different Y receptors was examined using NPY-related peptides and antagonists with diverse subtype specificity and selectivity for Y receptors. Y1, Y2 and Y5 receptors were detected on air-pouch exudates cells (flow cytometry) and peripheral blood granulocytes (immunocitochemistry). NPY in vivo reduced inflammatory cells accumulation into the air pouch, and decreased their adherence and phagocytic capacity via Y2/Y5 and Y1/Y2 receptors, respectively. Quite the opposite, NPY in vitro potentiated adhesiveness and phagocytosis of peripheral blood granulocytes and monocytes by activating Y1 receptor. The differences between in vivo and in vitro effects of NPY on rat inflammatory cells functions are mostly due to dipeptidyl peptidase 4 activity. In addition, suppressive effect of NPY in vivo is highly dependent on the local microenvironment, peptide truncation and specific Y receptors interplay. 相似文献

Abstract A range of recombinant cytokines have now been shown to modify aspects of the phenotype and function of human and murine neutrophils. However, few reports describe modification of the bactericidal activity of neutrophils. We therefore examined the recombinant murine cytokines tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α, 10–1000 ng ml−1 ) and granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF, 10–1000 U ml−1 ) for their ability to increase the bacterial killing capacity of murine neutrophils. Neutrophils from either bone marrow (fresh or cultured), or peritoneal exudates, or abscesses, were pre-incubated with either cytokine for 30–60 min and the killing of Proteus mirabilis, Escherichia coli , or Bacteriodes fragilis was examined in the presence or absence of serum over a 90 min period. Only for one combination was a small but significantly enhanced level of bacterial killing observed, the phagocytic killing of P. mirabilis by peritoneal exudate neutrophils in the presence of GM-CSF and serum. With this exception there was no enhancement of bacterial killing for the range of combinations of neutrophils and bacterial species tested. In contrast, at the concentrations tested for effect on bactericidal activity, TNF-α and GM-CSF were able to significantly upregulate CR3(but not FcγRII) expression on mouse neutrophils. There results indicate that upregulation of CR3 as an index of neutrophil activation does not necessarily correlate with increased bactericidal activity. 相似文献

The K-vitamin analog Cpd 5 or [2-(2-mercaptoethanol)-3-methyl-1,4-napthoquinone] is a potent cell growth inhibitor in vitro and in vivo, likely due to arylation of enzymes containing a catalytic cysteine. This results in inhibition of protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTPase) activity with resultant hyperphosphorylation of EGF receptors (EGFR) and ERK1/2 protein kinases, which are downstream to EGFR in the MAPK pathway. We used NR6 fibroblast cells, which lack endogenous EGFR and its variant cells transfected with different EGFR mutants to assess the contribution of the EGFR-mediated signaling pathway to Cpd 5-mediated ERK activation and cell growth inhibition. Cpd 5 treatment resulted in enhanced phosphorylation of EGFR at carboxyl-terminal tyrosines. This phosphorylation and activation of EGFR were found to be necessary neither for growth inhibition nor for the activation of the downstream kinases ERK1/2, since both occurred in EGFR-devoid mutant cells. U0126 and PD 098059, specific inhibitors of MEK1/2, the ERK1/2 kinases, antagonized both cell growth inhibition and ERK1/2 phosphorylation mediated by Cpd5. Cpd 5 was also found to inhibit ERK1/2 phosphatase(s) activity in lysates from all the cells tested, irrespective of their EGFR status. These results show that EGFR-independent ERK1/2 phosphorylation was involved in the mechanism of Cpd5 mediated growth inhibition. This is likely due to the observed antagonism of ERK phosphatase activity. A candidate PTPase was found to be Cdc25A, a recently identified ERK phosphatase. 相似文献

Keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) is an epithelial mitogen that has been reported to protect the lungs from a variety of insults. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that KGF augments pulmonary host defense. We found that a single dose of intrapulmonary KGF enhanced the clearance of Escherichia coli or Pseudomonas aeruginosa instilled into the lungs 24 h later. KGF augmented the recruitment, phagocytic activity, and oxidant responses of alveolar macrophages, including lipopolysaccharide-stimulated nitric oxide release and zymosan-induced superoxide production. Less robust alveolar macrophage recruitment and activation was observed in mice treated with intraperitoneal KGF. KGF treatment was associated with increased levels of MIP1γ, LIX, VCAM, IGFBP-6, and GM-CSF in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. Of these, only GM-CSF recapitulated in vitro the macrophage activation phenotype seen in the KGF-treated animals. The KGF-stimulated increase in GM-CSF levels in lung tissue and alveolar lining fluid arose from the epithelium, peaked within 1 h, and was associated with STAT5 phosphorylation in alveolar macrophages, consistent with epithelium-driven paracrine activation of macrophage signaling through the KGF receptor/GM-CSF/GM-CSF receptor/JAK-STAT axis. Enhanced bacterial clearance did not occur in response to KGF administration in GM-CSF(-/-) mice, or in mice treated with a neutralizing antibody to GM-CSF. We conclude that KGF enhances alveolar host defense through GM-CSF-stimulated macrophage activation. KGF administration may constitute a promising therapeutic strategy to augment innate immune defenses in refractory pulmonary infections. 相似文献

Reversal of eosinophilic inflammation has been an elusive therapeutic goal in the management of asthma pathogenesis. In this regard, GM-CSF is a primary candidate cytokine regulating eosinophil activation and survival in the lung; however, its molecular mechanism of propagation and maintenance of stimulated eosinophil activation is not well understood. In this study, we elucidate those late interactions occurring between the GM-CSF receptor and activated eosinophil signaling molecules. Using coimmunoprecipitation with GM-CSF-stimulated eosinophils, we have identified that the GM-CSF receptor beta-chain (GMRbeta) interacted with ICAM-1 and Shp2 phosphatase, as well as Slp76 and ADAP adaptor proteins. Separate experiments using affinity binding with a tyrosine-phosphorylated peptide containing an ITIM (ICAM-1 residues 480-488) showed binding to Shp2 phosphatase and GMRbeta. However, the interaction of GMRbeta with the phosphorylated ICAM-1-derived peptide was observed only with stimulated eosinophil lysates, suggesting that the interaction of GMRbeta with ICAM-1 required phosphorylated Shp2 and/or phosphorylated GMRbeta. Importantly, we found that inhibition of ICAM-1 in activated eosinophils blocked GM-CSF-induced expression of c-fos, c-myc, IL-8, and TNF-alpha. Moreover, inhibition of ICAM-1 expression with either antisense oligonucleotide or an ICAM-1-blocking Ab effectively inhibited ERK activation and eosinophil survival. We concluded that the interaction between ICAM-1 and the GM-CSF receptor was essential for GM-CSF-induced eosinophil activation and survival. Taken together, these results provide novel mechanistic insights defining the interaction between ICAM-1 and the GM-CSF receptor and highlight the importance of targeting ICAM-1 and GM-CSF/IL-5/IL-3 receptor systems as a therapeutic strategy to counter eosinophilia in asthma. 相似文献
