The recruitment of bone marrow CD34- mesenchymal stem- and progenitor cells (MSC) and their subsequent differentiation into distinct tissues is the precondition for in situ tissue engineering. The objective of this study was to determine the entire chemokine receptor expression profile of human MSC and to investigate their chemotactic response to the selected chemokines CCL2, CXCL8 and CXCL12. Human MSC were isolated from iliac crest bone marrow aspirates and showed a homogeneous population presenting a typical MSC-related cell surface antigen profile (CD14-, CD34-, CD44+, CD45-, CD166+, SH-2+). The expression profile of all 18 chemokine receptors was determined by real-time PCR and immunohistochemistry. Both methods consistently demonstrated that MSC express CC, CXC, C and CX(3)C receptors. Gene expression and immunohistochemical analysis documented that MSC express chemokine receptors CCR2, CCR8, CXCR1, CXCR2 and CXCR3. A dose-dependent chemotactic activity of CXCR4 and CXCR1/CXCR2 ligands CXCL12 and CXCL8 (interleukin-8) was demonstrated using a 96-well chemotaxis assay. In contrast, the CCR2 ligand CCL2 (monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, MCP-1) did not recruited human MSC. In conclusion, we report that the chemokine receptor expression profile of human MSC is much broader than known before. Furthermore, for the first time, we demonstrate that human MSC migrate upon stimulation with CXCL8 but not CCL2. In combination with already known data on MSC recruitment and differentiation these are promising results towards in situ regenerative medicine approaches based on guiding of MSC to sites of degenerated tissues. 相似文献

Chemokines and their receptors have been studied in several solid tumor models as mediators of inflammation. In turn, inflammation has been implicated in the promotion and progression of tumors, and as such, chemokines have been proposed as novel molecular targets for chemotherapy. While the expression of these molecules has been described in tumor cells, endothelial cells, macrophages and neutrophils, less attention has been paid to the expression profile of these molecules by T lymphocytes in the periphery or infiltrating the tumor. Using the D1-DMBA-3 murine mammary adenocarcinoma model, we aimed to better characterize the differential expression of chemokines and/or their receptors in the host and in the tumor microenvironment, and specifically, in the T cells of tumor-bearing mice compared to normal control animals. We found that T lymphocytes from tumor-bearing mice express the pro-inflammatory chemokines, CCL2, CCL5 and CXCL2, as well as the chemokine receptors, CCR1, CCR2, CCR3 and CXCR2. 相似文献

CD26/dipeptidylpeptidase IV (DPPIV) is a membrane-bound extracellular peptidase that cleaves dipeptides from the N terminus of polypeptide chains. The N terminus of chemokines is known to interact with the extracellular portion of chemokine receptors, and removal of these amino acids in many instances results in significant changes in functional activity. CD26/DPPIV has the ability to cleave the chemokine CXCL12/stromal cell-derived factor 1alpha (SDF-1alpha) at its position two proline. CXCL12/SDF-1alpha induces migration of hemopoietic stem and progenitor cells, and it is thought that CXCL12 plays a crucial role in homing/mobilization of these cells to/from the bone marrow. We found that CD26/DPPIV is expressed by a subpopulation of CD34(+) hemopoietic cells isolated from cord blood and that these cells have DPPIV activity. The involvement of CD26/DPPIV in CD34(+) hemopoietic stem and progenitor cell migration has not been previously examined. Functional studies show that the N-terminal-truncated CXCL12/SDF-1alpha lacks the ability to induce the migration of CD34(+) cord blood cells and acts to inhibit normal CXCL12/SDF-1alpha-induced migration. Finally, inhibiting the endogenous CD26/DPPIV activity on CD34(+) cells enhances the migratory response of these cells to CXCL12/SDF-1alpha. This process of CXCL12/SDF-1alpha cleavage by CD26/DPPIV on a subpopulation of CD34(+) cells may represent a novel regulatory mechanism in hemopoietic stem and progenitor cells for the migration, homing, and mobilization of these cells. Inhibition of the CD26/DPPIV peptidase activity may therefore represent an innovative approach to increasing homing and engraftment during cord blood transplantation. 相似文献

Recruitment of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) to tissue damages is a promising approach for in situ tissue regeneration. The physiological mechanisms and regulatory processes of MSC trafficking to injured tissue remain poorly understood. However, the pivotal role of chemokines in MSC recruitment has already been shown.The aim of this study was to determine the migratory potential and the gene expression profile of MSC stimulated with the CC chemokine CCL25 (TECK). Bone marrow derived human MSC were exposed to different doses of CCL25 in a standardized chemotaxis assay. Microarray gene expression profiling and pathway analysis were performed for CCL25 stimulated MSC.Maximum migration of MSC towards CCL25 was observed at 103 nM. Microarray analysis revealed an induction of molecules directly involved in chemotaxis and homing of bone marrow cells (CXCL1-3, CXCL8, PDE4B), cytoskeletal and membrane reorganisation (CXCL8, PLD1, IGFBP1), cellular polarity (PLD1), and cell movement (CXCL1-3, CXCL6, CXCL8, PTGS2, PDE4B, TGM2). Respective chemokine secretion was confirmed by protein membrane-array analysis. The activation of CXCR2 ligands (CXCL1-3, CXCL5-6, CXCL8) and a LIF-receptor/gp130 ligand (LIF) indicated an involvement of the respective signaling pathways during initiation of chemotaxis and migration.These results suggest CCL25 as a new potential candidate for further in situ regeneration approaches. 相似文献

Mast cells are key effector cells of immediate type allergic reactions. Upon activation they release a broad array of pre-stored and de novo synthesized mediators including immunoregulatory cytokines and chemokines. Here, we analyzed the chemokine profile expressed by mature human mast cells. Human mast cells were isolated from intestinal tissue and cultured with stem cell factor (SCF) in the presence or absence of IL-4 for 10d. Cells were stimulated by cross-linking of the high affinity IgE receptor (FcεRI) and/or by SCF. Chemokine and chemokine receptor mRNA expression was determined by real-time RT-PCR and chemokine release was measured by multiplex bead immunoassay. Out of 43 chemokines and 19 chemokine receptors human intestinal mast cells express 27 chemokines and nine chemokine receptors. Twelve chemokines (CCL1, CCL2, CCL3, CCL4, CCL5, CCL7, CCL18, CCL20, CXCL2, CXCL3, CXCL8, and XCL1) were more than four-fold up-regulated in response to FcεRI cross-linking. Combination of pre-culture with IL-4 and/or stimulation with SCF in addition to FcεRI cross-linking further increased the antigen-dependent expression of mRNA for most chemokines. In contrast, the expression of CCL20, CXCL2, and CXCL3 was strongly inhibited by IL-4 treatment. In conclusion, human intestinal mast cells express a broad spectrum of different chemokines underlining their important role as immunoregulatory cells. Furthermore, combined treatment with IL-4 and SCF increases the antigen-mediated expression and release of multiple chemokines, but IL-4 priming inhibits the expression of CCL20, CXCL2, and CXCL3. 相似文献

Differing activities of homeostatic chemokines CCL19, CCL21, and CXCL12 in lymphocyte and dendritic cell recruitment and lymphoid neogenesis 总被引:22,自引:0,他引:22

Despite their widespread expression, the in vivo recruitment activities of CCL19 (EBV-induced molecule 1 ligand chemokine) and CXCL12 (stromal cell-derived factor 1) have not been established. Furthermore, although CXCL13 (B lymphocyte chemoattractant) has been shown to induce lymphoid neogenesis through induction of lymphotoxin (LT)alpha1beta2, it is unclear whether other homeostatic chemokines have this property. In this work we show that ectopic expression in pancreatic islets of CCL19 leads to small infiltrates composed of lymphocytes and dendritic cells and containing high endothelial venules and stromal cells. Ectopic CXCL12 induced small infiltrates containing few T cells but enriched in dendritic cells, B cells, and plasma cells. Comparison of CCL19 transgenic mice with mice expressing CCL21 (secondary lymphoid tissue chemokine) revealed that CCL21 induced larger and more organized infiltrates. A more significant role for CCL21 is also suggested in lymphoid tissues, as CCL21 protein was found to be present in lymph nodes and spleen at much higher concentrations than CCL19. CCL19 and CCL21 but not CXCL12 induced LTalpha1beta2 expression on naive CD4 T cells, and treatment of CCL21 transgenic mice with LTbetaR-Fc antagonized development of organized lymphoid structures. LTalpha1beta2 was also induced on naive T cells by the cytokines IL-4 and IL-7. These studies establish that CCL19 and CXCL12 are sufficient to mediate cell recruitment in vivo and they indicate that LTalpha1beta2 may function downstream of CCL21, CCL19, and IL-2 family cytokines in normal and pathological lymphoid tissue development. 相似文献

Experimental autoimmune prostatitis (EAP) is a murine model of chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS) in men, a syndrome characterized by chronic pelvic pain. We have demonstrated that chemokine ligands CCL2 and CCL3 are biomarkers that correlate with pelvic pain symptoms. We postulated that CCL2 and CCL3 play a functional role in CPPS and therefore examined their expression in EAP. Upon examination of the prostate 5 days after induction of EAP, CCL2 mRNA was elevated 2- to 3-fold, CCL8 by 15-fold, CCL12 by 12- to 13-fold, and CXCL9 by 2- to 4-fold compared with control mice. At 10 days the major chemokines were CXCL13 and CXCL2; at 20 days CCL2 (1- to 2-fold), CCL3 (2- to 3-fold) and CCL11 (2- to 3-fold); and at 30 days, CCL12 (20- to 35-fold) and smaller increases in CCL2, CCL3, and XCL1. Chemokine elevations were accompanied by increases in mast cells and B cells at 5 days, monocytes and neutrophils at day 10, CD4+ T cells at day 20, and CD4+ and CD8+ T cells at day 30. Anti-CCL2 and anti-CCL3 neutralizing antibodies administered at EAP onset attenuated pelvic pain development, but only anti-CCL2 antibodies were effective therapeutically. CCL2- and its cognate receptor CCR2-deficient mice were completely protected from development of pain symptoms but assumed susceptibility after reconstitution with wild-type bone marrow. CCL3-deficient mice showed resistance to the maintenance of pelvic pain while CCR5-deficient mice did not show any lessening of pelvic pain severity. These results suggest that the CCL2-CCR2 axis and CCL3 are important mediators of chronic pelvic pain in EAP. 相似文献

CCL7 and CXCL10 orchestrate oxidative stress-induced neutrophilic lung inflammation. 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Oxidative stress from ozone (O(3)) exposure augments airway neutrophil recruitment and chemokine production. We and others have shown that severe and sudden asthma is associated with airway neutrophilia, and that O(3) oxidative stress is likely to augment neutrophilic airway inflammation in severe asthma. However, very little is known about chemokines that orchestrate oxidative stress-induced neutrophilic airway inflammation in vivo. To identify these chemokines, three groups of BALB/c mice were exposed to sham air, 0.2 ppm O(3), or 0.8 ppm O(3) for 6 h. Compared with sham air, 0.8 ppm O(3), but not 0.2 ppm O(3), induced pronounced neutrophilic airway inflammation that peaked at 18 h postexposure. The 0.8 ppm O(3) up-regulated lung mRNA of CXCL1,2,3 (mouse growth-related oncogene-alpha and macrophage-inflammatory protein-2), CXCL10 (IFN-gamma-inducible protein-10), CCL3 (macrophage-inflammatory protein-1alpha), CCL7 (monocyte chemoattractant protein-3), and CCL11 (eotaxin) at 0 h postexposure, and expression of CXCL10, CCL3, and CCL7 mRNA was sustained 18 h postexposure. O(3) increased lung protein levels of CXCL10, CCL7, and CCR3 (CCL7R). The airway epithelium was identified as a source of CCL7. The role of up-regulated chemokines was determined by administering control IgG or IgG Abs against six murine chemokines before O(3) exposure. As expected, anti-mouse growth-related oncogene-alpha inhibited neutrophil recruitment. Surprisingly, Abs to CCL7 and CXCL10 also decreased neutrophil recruitment by 63 and 72%, respectively. These findings indicate that CCL7 and CXCL10, two chemokines not previously reported to orchestrate neutrophilic inflammation, play a critical role in mediating oxidative stress-induced neutrophilic airway inflammation. These observations may have relevance in induction of neutrophilia in severe asthma. 相似文献

The Toll-like receptor 5 stimulus bacterial flagellin induces maturation and chemokine production in human dendritic cells 总被引:25,自引:0,他引:25

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are pattern recognition receptors that serve an important function in detecting pathogens and initiating inflammatory responses. Upon encounter with foreign Ag, dendritic cells (DCs) go through a maturation process characterized by an increase in surface expression of MHC class II and costimulatory molecules, which leads to initiation of an effective immune response in naive T cells. The innate immune response to bacterial flagellin is mediated by TLR5, which is expressed on human DCs. Therefore, we sought to investigate whether flagellin could induce DC maturation. Immature DCs were cultured in the absence or presence of flagellin and monitored for expression of cell surface maturation markers. Stimulation with flagellin induced increased surface expression of CD83, CD80, CD86, MHC class II, and the lymph node-homing chemokine receptor CCR7. Flagellin stimulated the expression of chemokines active on neutrophils (IL-8/CXC chemokine ligand (CXCL)8, GRO-alpha/CXCL1, GRO-beta/CXCL2, GRO-gamma/CXCL3), monocytes (monocyte chemoattractant protein-1/CC chemokine ligand (CCL)2), and immature DCs (macrophage-inflammatory protein-1 alpha/CCL3, macrophage-inflammatory protein-1 beta/CCL4), but not chemokines active on effector T cells (IFN-inducible protein-10 kDa/CXCL10, monokine induced by IFN-gamma/CXCL9, IFN-inducible T cell alpha chemoattractant/CXCL11). However, stimulating DCs with both flagellin and IFN-inducible protein-10 kDa, monokine induced by IFN-gamma, and IFN-inducible T cell alpha chemoattractant expression, whereas stimulation with IFN-beta or flagellin alone failed to induce these chemokines. In functional assays, flagellin-matured DCs displayed enhanced T cell stimulatory activity with a concomitant decrease in endocytic activity. Finally, DCs isolated from mouse spleens or bone marrows were shown to not express TLR5 and were not responsive to flagellin stimulation. These results demonstrate that flagellin can directly stimulate human but not murine DC maturation, providing an additional mechanism by which motile bacteria can initiate an acquired immune response. 相似文献

CCL15 is a novel human CC chemokine and exerts its biological activities on immune cells through CCR1 and CCR3. Because a number of chemokines induce angiogenesis and endothelial cells express CCR1 and CCR3, we investigated the angiogenic activity of CCL15. Both CCL15(1-92) and N-terminal truncated CCL15(25-92) stimulate the chemotactic endothelial cell migration and differentiation, but CCL15(25-92) is at least 100-fold more potent than CCL15(1-92). Treatment with pertussis toxin (PTX), with anti-CCR1, or with anti-CCR3 antibody inhibits the CCL15(25-92)-induced endothelial cell migration. CCL15(25-92) also stimulates sprouting of vessels from aortic rings and mediates angiogenesis in the chick chorioallantoic membrane assay. Our findings demonstrate that CCL15(25-92) has in vitro and in vivo angiogenic activity, and suggest roles of the chemokine in angiogenesis. 相似文献

During acute inflammation, monocytes are essential in abolishing invading micro-organisms and encouraging wound healing. Recruitment by CC chemokines is an important step in targeting monocytes to the inflamed tissue. However, cell surface expression of the corresponding chemokine receptors is subject to regulation by various endogenous stimuli which so far have not been comprehensively identified. We report that the platelet-derived CXC chemokine ligand 4 (CXCL4), a known activator of human monocytes, induces down-regulation of CC chemokine receptors (CCR) 1, -2, and -5, resulting in drastic impairment of monocyte chemotactic migration towards cognate CC chemokine ligands (CCL) for these receptors. Interestingly, CXCL4-mediated down-regulation of CCR1, CCR2 and CCR5 was strongly dependent on the chemokine's ability to stimulate autocrine/paracrine release of TNF-α. In turn, TNF-α induced the secretion CCL3 and CCL4, two chemokines selective for CCR1 and CCR5, while the secretion of CCR2-ligand CCL2 was TNF-α-independent. Culture supernatants of CXCL4-stimulated monocytes as well as chemokine-enriched preparations thereof reproduced CXCL4-induced CCR down-regulation. In conclusion, CXCL4 may act as a selective regulator of monocyte migration by stimulating the release of autocrine, receptor-desensitizing chemokine ligands. Our results stress a co-ordinating role for CXCL4 in the cross-talk between platelets and monocytes during early inflammation. 相似文献

Chemokines are important mediators of chemotaxis, cell adherence, and proliferation and exert specific functions in bone remodeling. Despite the potential intriguing role of chemokines in the regulation of osteoclast (OC) functions, little is known about the expression of chemokines and their receptors in human OCs at different stages of differentiation. Therefore, we analyzed the expression of CXC chemokine receptors (CXCR1, CXCR2, CXCR3, CXCR4 and CXCR5) and ligands (CXCL8, CXCL10, CXCL12 and CXCL13) both at molecular and protein levels, in human OCs grown on plastic or calcium phosphate-coated slides at different stages of differentiation. Real-time PCR showed that CXCR1, CXCR2, CXCR3, CXCR4, CXCR5 and CXCL8 were expressed in undifferentiated cells and significantly decreased during OC differentiation. By contrast, CXCL10 and CXCL12 were strongly upregulated from day 0 to day 8 in cells grown on calcium phosphate-coated slides. Immunocytochemistry showed that OCs grown on plastic expressed CXCR3, CXCR4, CXCR5, CXCL8 and CXCL12, while they were negative for CXCR1, CXCR2 and CXCL10. Interestingly, both at molecular and protein levels CXCL10 and CXCL12 significantly increased only when cells were differentiated on calcium phosphate-coated slides. These data suggest that the selection of a substrate that better mimics the tridimensional structure of bone tissue, thus favoring OC maturation and differentiation, may be necessary when studying osteoclastogenesis in vitro. 相似文献

Adult neural precursor cells (NPCs) respond to injury or disease of the CNS by migrating to the site of damage or differentiating locally to replace lost cells. Factors that mediate this injury induced NPC response include chemokines and pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα) and interferon-γ (IFNγ), which we have shown previously promotes neuronal differentiation. RT-PCR was used to compare expression of chemokines and their receptors in normal adult mouse brain and in cultured NPCs in response to IFNγ and TNFα. Basal expression of many chemokines and their receptors was found in adult brain, predominantly in neurogenic regions, with OB?SVZ>hippocampus and little or no expression in non-neurogenic regions, such as cortex. Treatment of SVZ-derived NPCs with IFNγ and TNFα (alone and in combination) resulted in significant upregulation of expression of specific chemokines, with CXCL1, CXCL9 and CCL2 most highly upregulated and CCL19 downregulated. Unlike IFNγ, chemokine treatment of NPCs in vitro had little or no effect on survival, proliferation or migration. Neuronal differentiation was promoted by CXCL9, CCL2 and CCL21, while astrocyte and total oligodendrocyte differentiation was not affected. However, IFNγ, CXCL1, CXCL9 and CCL2 promoted oligodendrocyte maturation. Therefore, not only do NPCs express chemokine receptors, they also produce several chemokines, particularly in response to inflammatory mediators. This suggests that autocrine or paracrine production of specific chemokines by NPCs in response to inflammatory mediators may regulate differentiation into mature neural cell types and may alter NPC responsiveness to CNS injury or disease. 相似文献

Background
The immune response in the skin of dogs infected with Leishmania infantum is poorly understood, and limited studies have described the immunopathological profile with regard to distinct levels of tissue parasitism and the clinical progression of canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL).Methodology/Principal Findings
A detailed analysis of inflammatory cells (neutrophils, eosinophils, mast cells, lymphocytes, and macrophages) as well as the expression of chemokines (CCL2, CCL4, CCL5, CCL13, CCL17, CCL21, CCL24, and CXCL8) was carried out in dermis skin samples from 35 dogs that were naturally infected with L. infantum. The analysis was based on real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in the context of skin parasitism and the clinical status of CVL. We demonstrated increased inflammatory infiltrate composed mainly of mononuclear cells in the skin of animals with severe forms of CVL and high parasite density. Analysis of the inflammatory cell profile of the skin revealed an increase in the number of macrophages and reductions in lymphocytes, eosinophils, and mast cells that correlated with clinical progression of the disease. Additionally, enhanced parasite density was correlated with an increase in macrophages and decreases in eosinophils and mast cells. The chemokine mRNA expression demonstrated that enhanced parasite density was positively correlated with the expression of CCL2, CCL4, CCL5, CCL21, and CXCL8. In contrast, there was a negative correlation between parasite density and CCL24 expression.Conclusions/Significance
These findings represent an advance in the knowledge about skin inflammatory infiltrates in CVL and the systemic consequences. Additionally, the findings may contribute to the design of new and more efficient prophylactic tools and immunological therapies against CVL. 相似文献15.

This study focuses upon three chemokines, namely CCL5, CXCL10 and CCL3, which are potential novel therapeutic targets in arthritis.
The aim of the study was to analyse the expression and production of these three chemokines within the joints of children
with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) of the oligoarticular and polyarticular subtypes. All three of these chemokines are
highly expressed at the level of mRNA, with the most significant increase in mRNA levels being demonstrated for CCL5 when
compared with matched peripheral blood samples and controls. We show that high levels of all three chemokines are present
in synovial fluid of children with JIA. We investigate the major source of CCL5 from inflammatory synovial cells, which we
show to be CD8+ T cells. This CD8+ synovial T cell population has an unexpected phenotype that has not been described previously,
being CCR7- yet predominantly CD28+ and CD45RA-. These cells contain high levels of stored intracellular CCL5, and rapid release
of CCL5 takes place on T cell stimulation, without requiring new protein synthesis. In addition, we demonstrate that CCL5
is present in synovial biopsies from these patients, in particular on the endothelium of small and medium sized vessels. We
believe this to be the first in depth analysis of these mediators of inflammation in JIA. 相似文献

Human CC chemokine-4 (HCC-4)/CCL16 is a chemoattractant for monocytes and lymphocytes. Although HCC-4 binds to multiple CC chemokine receptors, the receptor-mediated signal transduction pathway induced by HCC-4 has not been characterized. Human osteogenic sarcoma cells stably expressing CCR1 were used to investigate HCC-4-mediated chemotaxis signaling events via CCR1. The chemotactic activity of HCC-4 as well as those of other CCR1-dependent chemokines including MIP-1alpha/CCL3, RANTES/CCL5, and Lkn-1/CCL15 was inhibited by the treatment of pertussis toxin, an inhibitor of Gi/Go protein, U73122, an inhibitor of phospholipase C (PLC), and rottlerin, a specific inhibitor of protein kinase Cdelta (PKCdelta). These results indicate that HCC-4-induced chemotaxis signaling is mediated through Gi/Go protein, PLC, and PKCdelta. SB202190, an inhibitor of p38 mitogen activated protein kinase, only blocked the chemotactic activity of HCC-4, but not those of other CCR1-dependent chemokines. SB202190 inhibited HCC-4-induced chemotaxis in a dose-dependent manner (P < 0.01). HCC-4 induces p38 activation in both a time and dose-dependent manner. However, such p38 activation was not induced by other CCR1-dependent chemokines. To further investigate the differential effect of HCC-4, the Ca2+ mobilization was examined. HCC-4 induced no intracellular Ca2+ flux in contrast to other CCR1-dependent chemokines. These results indicate that HCC-4 transduces signals differently from other CCR1-dependent chemokines and may play different roles in the immune response. 相似文献

Chemokines play a critical role in the acute transplant rejection. In order to provide an overview of the chemokine expression during the course of acute allograft rejection, the intragraft expression profile of 11 chemokines representative of all four chemokine subfamilies was analyzed in a murine skin transplantation model of acute rejection. It was found that RANTES/CCL5, TARC/CCL17 and FKN/CX3CL1 were expressed at equivalent levels in iso- and allografts. However, the other eight chemokines expression was up-regulated to some extent in allograft compared with that in isograft. The levels of MIP-1α/CCL3, MIP-3α/CCL20 and CTACK/CCL27 were progressively increased from early stage (day 3 post-transplantation) to late stage (day 11). Mig/CXCL9, IP-10/CXCL10, I-TAC/CXCL11, CXCL16 and LTN/XCL1 expression was elevated at middle stage (day 7), and peaked at late stage. Among the up-regulated chemokines, I-TAC was the most obviously elevated chemokine. Therefore, the effect of I-TAC on the skin acute allograft rejection was evaluated. Block of I-TAC by the intradermal injection of anti-I-TAC monoclonal antibody (mAb) reduced the number of CXCR3+ cells in skin allograft and significantly prolonged the skin allograft survival. The mAb treatment did not influence the proliferation of the intragraft infiltrating cells in response to the allogeneic antigens, but significantly decreased the number of the infiltrating cells and consequently lowered the secretion of IFN-γ and TNF-α. These data indicate I-TAC might be a dominant chemokine involved in the intradermal infiltration and I-TAC-targeted intervening strategies would have potential application for the alleviation of acute transplant rejection. 相似文献

The CC chemokine eotaxin/CCL11 is known to bind to the receptor CCR3 on eosinophils and Th2-type lymphocytes. In this study, we demonstrate that CCR3 is expressed on a subpopulation of primary human dermal microvascular endothelial cells and is up-regulated by TNF-alpha. We found that incubation of human dermal microvascular endothelial cells with recombinant eotaxin/CCL11 suppresses TNF-alpha-induced production of the neutrophil-specific chemokine IL-8/CXCL8. The eotaxin/CCL11-suppressive effect on endothelial cells was not seen on IL-1beta-induced IL-8/CXCL8 release. Eotaxin/CCL11 showed no effect on TNF-alpha-induced up-regulation of growth-related oncogene-alpha or IFN-gamma-inducible protein-10, two other CXC chemokines tested, and did not affect production of the CC chemokines monocyte chemoattractant protein-1/CCL2 and RANTES/CCL5, or the adhesion molecules ICAM-1 and E-selectin. These results suggest that eotaxin/CXCL11 is not effecting a general suppression of TNF-alphaR levels or signal transduction. Suppression of IL-8/CXCL8 was abrogated in the presence of anti-CCR3 mAb, pertussis toxin, and wortmannin, indicating it was mediated by the CCR3 receptor, G(i) proteins, and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase signaling. Eotaxin/CCL11 decreased steady state levels of IL-8/CXCL8 mRNA in TNF-alpha-stimulated cells, an effect mediated in part by an acceleration of IL-8 mRNA decay. Eotaxin/CCL11 may down-regulate production of the neutrophil chemoattractant IL-8/CXCL8 by endothelial cells in vivo, acting as a negative regulator of neutrophil recruitment. This may play an important biological role in the prevention of overzealous inflammatory responses, aiding in the resolution of acute inflammation or transition from neutrophilic to mononuclear/eosinophilic inflammation. 相似文献

Upon inflammation, circulating monocytes leave the bloodstream and migrate into the tissues, where they differentiate after exposure to various growth factors, cytokines or infectious agents. The best defined macrophage polarization types are M1 and M2. However, the platelet-derived CXC chemokine CXCL4 induces the polarization of macrophages into a unique phenotype. In this study, we compared the effect of CXCL4 and its variant CXCL4L1 on the differentiation of monocytes into macrophages and into immature monocyte-derived dendritic cells (iMDDC). Differently to M-CSF and CXCL4, CXCL4L1 is not a survival factor for monocytes. Moreover, the expression of the chemokine receptors CCR2, CCR5 and CXCR3 was significantly higher on CXCL4L1-treated monocytes compared to M-CSF- and CXCL4-stimulated monocytes. IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RN) expression was upregulated by CXCL4 and downregulated by CXCL4L1, respectively, whereas both chemokines reduced the expression of the mannose receptor (MRC). Furthermore, through activation of CXCR3, CXCL4L1-stimulated monocytes released significantly higher amounts of CCL2 and CXCL8 compared to CXCL4-treated monocytes, indicating more pronounced inflammatory traits for CXCL4L1. In contrast, in CXCL4L1-treated monocytes, the production of CCL22 was lower. Compared to iMDDC generated in the presence of CXCL4L1, CXCL4-treated iMDDC showed an enhanced phagocytic capacity and downregulation of expression of certain surface markers (e.g. CD1a) and specific enzymes (e.g. MMP-9 and MMP-12). CXCL4 and CXCL4L1 did not affect the chemokine receptor expression on iMDDC and cytokine production (CCL2, CCL18, CCL22, CXCL8, IL-10) by CXCL4- or CXCL4L1-differentiated iMDDC was similar. We can conclude that both CXCL4 and CXCL4L1 exert a direct effect on monocytes and iMDDC. However, the resulting phenotypes are different, which suggests a unique role for the two CXCL4 variants in physiology and/or pathology. 相似文献

Complement C3a promotes CXCL12-induced migration and engraftment of human and murine hemopoietic progenitor cells, suggesting a cross-influence between anaphylatoxin and chemokine axes. Here we have explored the underlying mechanism(s) of complement anaphylatoxin and chemokine cooperation. In addition to C3a, C3a-desArg and C4a but not C5a, are potent enhancers of CXCL12-induced chemotaxis of human and murine bone marrow (BM) stem/progenitor cells and B lineage cells. C3a enhancement of chemotaxis is chemokine specific because it is also observed for chemotaxis to CCL19 but not to CXCL13. The potentiating effect of C3a on CXCL12 is independent of the classical C3a receptor (C3aR). First, human BM CD34(+) and B lineage cells do not express C3aR by flow cytometry. Second, the competitive C3aR inhibitor SB290157 does not affect C3a-mediated enhancement of CXCL12-induced chemotaxis. Third, enhancement of chemotaxis of hemopoietic cells is also mediated by C3a-desArg, which does not bind to C3aR. Finally, C3a enhances CXCL12-induced chemotaxis of BM cells from C3aR knockout mice similar to BM cells from wild-type mice. Subsequent studies revealed that C3a increased the binding affinity of CXCL12 to human CXCR4(+)/C3aR(-), REH pro-B cells, which is compatible with a direct interaction between C3a and CXCL12. BM stromal cells were able to generate C3a, C3a-desArg, C4a, as well as CXCL12, suggesting that this pathway could function in vivo. Taken together, we demonstrate a C3a-CXCL12 interaction independent of the C3aR, which may provide a mechanism to modulate the function of CXCL12 in the BM microenvironment. 相似文献
