Infiltration of the lungs with neutrophils promotes respiratory failure during severe Pneumocystis carinii (PC) pneumonia. Recent studies have shown that alveolar epithelial cells (AECs), in addition to promoting PC attachment, also participate in lung inflammation by the release of cytokines and chemokines. Herein, we demonstrate that a PC beta-glucan rich cell wall isolate (PCBG) stimulates the release of macrophage inflammatory protein-2 (MIP-2) from isolated AECs through a lactosylceramide-dependent mechanism. The results demonstrate that MIP-2 mRNA and protein production is significantly increased at both early and late time points after PCBG challenge. Although CD11b/CD18 (Mac-1, CR3) is the most widely studied beta-glucan receptor, we demonstrate that CD11b/CD18 is not present on AECs. This study instead demonstrates that preincubation of AECs with an antibody directed against the membrane glycosphingolipid lactosylceramide (CDw17) results in a significant decrease in MIP-2 secretion. Preincubation of the anti-CDw17 antibody with solubilized lactosylceramide reverses this effect. Furthermore, incubation of AECs with inhibitors of glycosphingolipid biosynthesis, including N-butyldeoxyno jirimycin and d-threo-1-phenyl-2-decanoylamino-3-morpholino-1-propanol-HCl, also results in a significant decrease in AEC MIP-2 production following challenge with PCBG. These data demonstrate that PC beta-glucan induces significant production of MIP-2 from AECs and that CDw17 participates in the glucan-induced inflammatory signaling in lung epithelial cells during PC infection. 相似文献

Rabbit alveolar macrophages express a plasma-membrane receptor that recognizes glycoprotein ligands bearing terminal mannose, fucose or N-acetylglucosamine residues. Macrophage membranes were washed extensively with buffers containing high salt and mannose or EDTA to remove endogenously bound ligand, before Triton X-100 extraction. The extracts were chromatographed on mannose-Sepharose. Elution with mannose, followed by dialysis and a second mannose-Sepharose step with EDTA elution, produced a preparation that migrated as single protein band of Mr 175,000 on SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. The purified protein binds mannose-BSA (bovine serum albumin) with a dissociation constant of 1.9 X 10(-8) M. Ligand binding is Ca2+ and pH-dependent, with maximal binding at neutral pH and low binding below pH 6.0. The binding of 125I-mannose-BSA is inhibited by ligands bearing high-mannose oligosaccharides, such as mannan or beta-glucuronidase, as well as the monosaccharides mannose, fucose and N-acetylglucosamine. Galactose, galactosylated BSA, glucose and mannose 6-phosphate are non-inhibitory. Amino acid compositional analyses indicate that the receptor contains high concentrations of aspartate/asparagine and glutamate/glutamine, and low amounts of methionine. The carbohydrate composition was studied by lectin overlays of electrophoretically transferred receptor, and the results indicate the presence of N-linked complex and O-linked sialylated oligosaccharides. A protein of Mr 175,000 was immunoprecipitated from radio-iodinated macrophage membranes with an antibody generated against purified rabbit lung mannose receptor. 相似文献

Rabbit pulmonary alveolar macrophages produce a collagenase which lyses labeled collagen gels, specifically cleaves collagen types I, II and III, is inhibited by ethylenediaminetetraacetate, cysteine, dithiothreitol and serum but is not inhibited by a serine protease inhibitor. Alveolar macrophage collagenase activity can be enhanced by BCG activation, latex, silica or mycobacterium activation and by uncovering of latent enzymatic activity with trypsin treatment. The production of collagenase by unactivated alveolar macrophages and the presence of “latent” collagenase in culture media of alveolar macrophages are examples of significant differences between alveolar and peritoneal macrophages. 相似文献

Exposure of mouse peritoneal macrophages to ethanol induces a rapid release of arachidonic acid to the extracellular medium. All major classes of phospholipids, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylinositol contribute to this release. Ethanol-induced mobilization of arachidonic acid occurs by deacylation, but it is not accompanied by eicosanoid synthesis. These data suggest that at least two signals are necessary for the release and metabolism of arachidonic acid. Ethanol also activates a phospholipase C which hydrolyzes only phosphatidylinositol, and not its phosphorylated derivatives. 相似文献

Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) was used to modulate the activation of alveolar macrophages, to examine its potential anti-inflammatory effect in addition to its anti-arteriosclerotic or anti-thrombotic effects. Wistar strain rat alveolar macrophages (2 x 10(6) cell) obtained by bronchoalveolar lavage were preincubated with EPA (0-20 microM), and further incubated with 1 mg of silica for 90 min. Leukotriene (LT) B4 and LTB5 of the supernatant were analyzed by reverse phase HPLC. EPA inhibited the production of LTB4 dose-dependently. The production of LTB5, a metabolite from EPA, was increased at low concentrations of EPA (0-10 microM) and decreased at high concentrations (>10 microM). These results suggest that EPA is competitive with arachidonic acid (AA) at low concentrations, and that EPA may inhibit AA metabolism via inhibition of 5-lipoxygenase or phospholipase A2 at high concentrations. 相似文献

Hydrocortisone inhibits prostaglandin production but not arachidonic acid release from cultured macrophages 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
We have investigated the action of hydrocortisosone on arachidonic acid mobilisation in cultures of mouse peritoneal macrophages, mouse L929 cells and the mouse macrophage-like cell line RAW264. Hydrocortisone inhibits both arachidonic acid release and prostaglandin production by L929 cells. However, prostaglandin production by macrophages or RAW264 cells is inhibited with a concomitant stimulation rather than inhibition of arachidonic acid release. These data suggest that hydrocortisone acts at the level of phospholipase activity in fibroblasts but at a later stage of prostanoid production in macrophages. 相似文献

The time course of uptake and distribution of 3H-arachidoni acid (3H-AA) into rat alveolar macrophage phospholipid pools was examined. Macrophages incubated with exogenous 3H-AA in RPMI-1640 containing 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA), incorporated this radiolabel into phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylinositol (PI) with plateau reached within 2 to 4 hours, which remained relatively constant for up to 18 hours. Incorporation of 3H-AA into phospholipid pools revealed that treatment with exogenous 5 nM arachidonic acid had no effect upon pool sizes, but there was a selective incorporation if 3H-AA into PI. Cells were incubated with 3H-AA in RPMI alone or medium containing either 0.2% lactalbumin, fetal calf serum at variable concentrations, 10% Nu, Serum, or 0.1% BSA. Incubation of macrophages with 3H-AA in RPMI alone or containing 0.2% lactalbumin, resulted in approximately 70% of the radiolabel taken up by the cells being incorporated into triglyceride. The addition of BSA to RPMI-1640 medium was found to facilitate selective uptake of 3H-AA into phospholipids. Approximately 70% of incorporated 3H-AA was releseable through the action of exogenous phospholipase A2. 相似文献

Macrophages incubated with exogenous 3H-AA in RPMI-1640 containing 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA), incorporated this radiolabel into phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylinositol (PI) with plateaus reached within 2 to 4 hours, which remained relatively constant for up to 18 hours. Incorporation of 3H-AA into phosphatidylethanolamine was small, but continued to increase for 14 hours. Analysis of phosphate content in phospholipid pools revealed that treatment with exogenous 5 nM arachidonic acid had no effect upon pool sizes, but there was a selective incorporation of 3H-AA into PI.

Phospholipase C-diglyceride lipase is a major pathway for arachidonic acid release in macrophages 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Macrophages are a rich source of arachidonic acid oxygenated metabolites and play a remarkable role in a number of physiopathological situations. The synthesis and secretion of arachidonic acid metabolites are triggered at the cytoplasmic membrane level. The present study was outlined to further investigate the cellular mechanisms controlling arachidonic acid release in macrophages. The results presented here strongly suggest that the amount of arachidonic acid released in macrophages in response to phagocytic challenge could be accounted for by a phospholipase C-diglyceride lipase system being unnecessary the presence of phospholipase A2 whose activity, on the other hand, was found vanishingly small in macrophage homogenates. 相似文献

Effect of toxins on arachidonic acid metabolism in rat cultured pulmonary alveolar macrophages 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The action of a trichothecene (T-2), microcystin-LR and saxitoxin on arachidonic acid metabolism in cultured rat alveolar macrophages was studied. Pulmonary macrophages exposed to T-2 trichothecene were stimulated to synthesize and release large amount of thromboxane B2 (TxB2) and 6-Keto F1 alpha. Microcystin-LR induced significant release of prostaglandins F2 alpha (140%), PGE2 (175%) and TxB2 (169%) compared to controls. Saxitoxin induced TxB2 release by 37%. Arachidonic acid release was stimulated by all three toxins. The release of arachidonic acid and its metabolites in alveolar macrophages exposed to T-2 toxin was partially blocked by fluocinolone (1 microM). These results suggest that macrophages synthesize and release inflammatory mediators in response to toxin exposure, and fluocinolone may protect against T-2 toxicosis. 相似文献

Tumour necrosis factor (TNF), a lymphokine released by activated macrophages, has diverse effects on a wide variety of cell types. TNF exerts these effects via specific cell surface receptors; however little is known of the biochemical events that ensue. We have shown that TNF rapidly induces the proto-oncogenes c-fos and c-jun in the adipogenic TA1 cell line and have used these responses to characterize the intracellular mediators of TNF action. We find that arachidonic acid, which is released in response to TNF, induces c-fos, but not c-jun mRNA in quiescent TA1 cells. Pretreatment of the cells with lipoxygenase inhibitors abolishes the induction of c-fos by TNF, while the induction of c-jun is unaffected; in contrast, a cyclooxygenase inhibitor has no effect on either response. Finally, we have demonstrated that TNF stimulates production of lipoxygenase metabolites in TA1 cells and that one of these, 5-HPETE, induces c-fos, but not c-jun. These data suggest that TNF activates two second messenger pathways, one of which is dependent on release of arachidonic acid and its subsequent conversion to a lipoxygenase metabolite. 相似文献

Murine peritoneal macrophages cultured in minimal essential medium (alpha-MEM; 118 mM Na+, 5 mM K+) released arachidonic acid (20:4) from phospholipids on encountering a phagocytic stimulus of unopsonized zymosan. In high concentrations of extracellular K+ (118 mM), 3H release from cells prelabeled with [3H]20:4 was inhibited 80% with minimal reduction (18%) in phagocytosis. The inhibitory effect of K+ on 20:4 release was fully reversed on returning cells to medium containing Na+ (118 mM). Preingestion of zymosan particles by macrophages maintained in high K+ medium resulted in cells being "primed" for 20:4 release, which was only effected (without the further addition of particles) by changing the medium to one containing Na+. In contrast, 20:4 release from cells stimulated with the calcium ionophore A23187 was unimpaired by the elevated K+ medium, suggesting no direct effect of high K+ on the phospholipase. Macrophages stimulated with zymosan in alpha-MEM metabolized the released 20:4 to prostacyclin, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), and leukotriene C (LTC). The smaller quantity of released 20:4 in high K+ medium was recovered as 6-Keto-PGF1 alpha, the breakdown product of prostacyclin, and PGE2. No LTC was synthesized. In high K+, resting (no zymosan) macrophages synthesized hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids from exogeneously supplied 20:4 in proportions similar to cells maintained in alpha-MEM. These findings and the similarity of products (including LTC) produced by stimulated cells in alpha-MEM and high K+ medium indicated that the cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase pathway enzymes were not directly inhibited by high extracellular K+. We conclude that high concentrations of extracellular K+ uncouple phagocytosis of unopsonized zymosan from the induction of the phospholipase responsible for the 20:4 cascade and suggest that the lesion is at the level of signal transduction between the receptor-ligand complex and the phospholipase.

Chronic alcohol abuse is a comorbid variable of acute respiratory distress syndrome. Previous studies showed that, in the lung, chronic alcohol consumption increased oxidative stress and impaired alveolar macrophage (AM) function. NADPH oxidases (Noxes) are the main source of reactive oxygen species in AMs. Therefore, we hypothesized that chronic alcohol consumption increases AM oxidant stress through modulation of Nox1, Nox2, and Nox4 expression. AMs were isolated from male C57BL/6J mice, aged 8-10 wk, which were treated with or without ethanol in drinking water (20% w/v, 12 wk). MH-S cells, a mouse AM cell line, were treated with or without ethanol (0.08%, 3 d) for in vitro studies. Selected cells were treated with apocynin (300 μM), a Nox1 and Nox2 complex formation inhibitor, or were transfected with Nox small interfering RNAs (20-35 nM), before ethanol exposure. Human AMs were isolated from alcoholic and control patients' bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. Nox mRNA levels (quantitative RT-PCR), protein levels (Western blot and immunostaining), oxidative stress (2',7'-dichlorofluorescein-diacetate and Amplex Red analysis), and phagocytosis (Staphylococcus aureus internalization) were measured. Chronic alcohol increased Nox expression and oxidative stress in mouse AMs in vivo and in vitro. Experiments using apocynin and Nox small interfering RNAs demonstrated that ethanol-induced Nox4 expression, oxidative stress, and AM dysfunction were modulated through Nox1 and Nox2 upregulation. Further, Nox1, Nox2, and Nox4 protein levels were augmented in human AMs from alcoholic patients compared with control subjects. Ethanol induces AM oxidative stress initially through upregulation of Nox1 and Nox2 with downstream Nox4 upregulation and subsequent impairment of AM function. 相似文献

Effects of inadequate vitamin E and/or selenium nutrition on the release of arachidonic acid metabolites in rat alveolar macrophages 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Effects of vitamin E and/or selenium (Se) deficiency on the secretion of arachidonic acid metabolites by zymosan-stimulated pulmonary alveolar macrophages (AM) were examined using cells from male Long-Evans hooded rats fed torula-yeast based diets with or without the supplementation of vitamin E (150 IU/kg) or Se (0.5 mg/kg). Alveolar macrophages obtained by lavage were purified by adherence and cultured for 4 h in Hank's balanced salt solution containing bovine serum albumin (0.1%) and zymosan (300 micrograms/ml). The arachidonic acid metabolites present in the culture supernatant were measured by radioimmunoassay. Altered vitamin E and Se nutrition had no effect on the number of cells or cell types recovered from the pulmonary airways. Alveolar macrophages derived from animals fed on diets deficient in vitamin E or Se or both nutrients secreted higher levels of prostaglandin E2 and thromboxane B2. Levels of both 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid and leukotriene B4 were significantly increased only in the group fed the diet adequate in Se but deficient in vitamin E. Our data suggest that vitamin E and Se might play an important role to control the levels of several physiologically and pathologically important arachidonic acid metabolites. 相似文献

The effect of calmodulin antagonists on the amounts of free fatty acids produced by rabbit alveolar macrophages was determined by fluorometric high-performance liquid chromatography. Opsonized zymosan-induced arachidonic acid production was dramatically suppressed in the presence of W-7 and trifluoperazine without an effect on the production of other fatty acids. Calmodulin antagonists inhibited phospholipase A and abolished the release of arachidonic acid from phospholipids. The present results suggest that a zymosan-sensitive pool of 20:4, which is different from that of other fatty acids, is present in macrophages and that calmodulin antagonists selectively inhibit phospholipase A, which preferentially degrades phospholipids with 20:4. 相似文献
