Type I IFNs (IFNIs) have pleiotropic functions in regulating host innate and adaptive immune responses to pathogens. To elucidate the role of IFNIs in host resistance to chlamydial infection in vivo, we compared IFN-alpha/beta receptor knockout (IFNAR(-/-)) and wild-type control mice in susceptibility to Chlamydia trachomatis mouse pneumonitis (Chlamydia muridarum) lung infection. We found that the IFNAR(-/-) mice were significantly more resistant to C. muridarum infection showing less bacterial burden and bodyweight loss, and milder pathological changes. However, IFN-gamma response, which is believed to be critical in host defense against chlamydial infection, was similar between the wild-type and IFNAR(-/-) mice. More importantly, TUNEL analysis showed less macrophage apoptosis in IFNAR(-/-) mice, which was consistent with lower expressions of IFNI-induced apoptotic factors, TRAIL, Daxx, and PKR. Furthermore, depletion of lung macrophages with dichloromethylene diphosphonate-liposome significantly increased the susceptibility of the IFNAR(-/-) mice to C. muridarum, confirming the importance of macrophages. Overall, the data indicate that IFNIs play a promoting role in C. muridarum lung infection, largely through increase of local macrophage apoptosis. 相似文献

Plasmacytoid dendritic cells regulate Th cell responses through OX40 ligand and type I IFNs 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15

Dendritic cells (DCs) show a functional plasticity in determining Th responses depending on their maturational stage or on maturational signals delivered to the DCs. Human plasmacytoid DCs (PDCs) can induce either Th1- or Th2-type immune responses upon exposure to viruses or IL-3, respectively. In this study we have investigated the Th-polarizing capacity of PDCs after short (24-h) or long (72-h) culture with stimuli and have assessed the expression and function of OX40 ligand (OX40L) in PDC-mediated Th polarization in addition to type I IFN-dependent responses. IL-3-treated PDCs expressed OX40L, but produced almost no IFN-alpha in response to T cell stimulation (CD40 ligand or T cell interaction), resulting in the preferential priming of Th2 cells through OX40L-dependent mechanisms. Meanwhile, PDCs were rapidly endowed by viral infection (Sendai virus) with a high potency to develop IFN-gamma-producing Th cells depending on their capacity to residually produce IFN-alpha. Although Sendai virus-stimulated PDCs simultaneously expressed OX40L in their maturational process, the Th1-inducing effect of endogenous type I IFNs may overcome and thus conceal the OX40L-dependent Th2 responses. However, during maturation in response to Sendai virus over the longer 72-h period, the expression level of OX40L was up-regulated, whereas the residual IFN-alpha-producing ability was down-regulated, and consequently, the PDCs with prolonged Sendai virus stimulation induced Th2 responses to some extent. Thus, PDCs have the distinct means to dictate an appropriate response to environmental stimuli. 相似文献

Apoptosis can be triggered by different forms of cellular stress. We here show that serum deprivation induces the expression
and secretion of type I interferons and results in apoptosis in RAW 264.7 cell in a caspase dependent manner. Administration
of either IFN-α or IFN-β antibody partially inhibits apoptosis while the two antibodies used together totally prevents RAW264.7
cell from apoptosis. GM-CSF, but not M-CSF and IL-3, protects serum deprivation induced apoptosis. Inhibition of JAKs also
prevents macrophages from apoptosis. Activation of MAPKs is not required for serum deprivation induced apoptosis. Our results
are the first to demonstrate that serum deprivation-induced apoptosis acts through autocrine secretion of type I interferons. 相似文献

Dengue is the most prevalent mosquito-borne viral disease in tropical regions. Severe cases may progress to Dengue hemorrhagic fever, suggesting vascular endothelial dysfunction in disease pathogenesis. In our previous study, we found that Dengue virus type 2 (DENV2) induced apoptosis of vascular endothelial cells via FasL/Fas- and XIAP-associated factor 1 (XAF1)-dependent pathways. In this paper, we demonstrate that DENV2 can induce autophagy in primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and the human umbilical vein endothelial cell line EA.hy926. Inhibition of autophagy with 3-methyl adenine promoted apoptosis, while inhibition of apoptosis with Z-VAD-FMK facilitated autophagy in DENV2-infected HUVECs and EA.hy926 cells. Interferon-alpha-inducible protein 6 (IFI6), a putative apoptosis regulator, inhibited DENV2-induced autophagy in EA.hy926 cells, while XAF1, an inhibitor of anti-apoptotic XIAP, facilitated autophagy. Molecular regulators of apoptosis and autophagy interact at multiple levels to determine cell fate. Our data suggest that XAF1 and IFI6 are involved in regulating the balance between autophagy and apoptosis in DENV2-infected endothelial cells. 相似文献

Although the protective role of type II IFN, or IFN-γ, against Mycobacterium tuberculosis has been established, the effects of type I IFNs are still unclear. One potential confounding factor is the overlap of function between the two signaling pathways. We used mice carrying null mutations in the type I IFNR, type II IFNR, or both and compared their immune responses to those of wild-type mice following aerosol infection with M. tuberculosis. We discovered that, in the absence of a response to IFN-γ, type I IFNs play a nonredundant protective role against tuberculosis. Mice unable to respond to both types of IFNs had more severe lung histopathology for similar bacterial loads and died significantly earlier than did mice with impaired IFN-γ signaling alone. We excluded a role for type I IFN in T cell recruitment, which was IFN-γ dependent, whereas both types of IFNs were required for optimal NK cell recruitment to the lungs. Type I IFN had a time-dependent influence on the composition of lung myeloid cell populations, in particular by limiting the abundance of M. tuberculosis-infected recruited macrophages after the onset of adaptive immunity. We confirmed that response to IFN-γ was essential to control intracellular mycobacterial growth, without any additional effect of type I IFN. Together, our results imply a model in which type I IFN limit the number of target cells that M. tuberculosis can infect in the lungs, whereas IFN-γ enhances their ability to restrict bacterial growth. 相似文献

IFN-γ and T cells are both required for the development of experimental cerebral malaria during Plasmodium berghei ANKA infection. Surprisingly, however, the role of IFN-γ in shaping the effector CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cell response during this infection has not been examined in detail. To address this, we have compared the effector T cell responses in wild-type and IFN-γ(-/-) mice during P. berghei ANKA infection. The expansion of splenic CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells during P. berghei ANKA infection was unaffected by the absence of IFN-γ, but the contraction phase of the T cell response was significantly attenuated. Splenic T cell activation and effector function were essentially normal in IFN-γ(-/-) mice; however, the migration to, and accumulation of, effector CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells in the lung, liver, and brain was altered in IFN-γ(-/-) mice. Interestingly, activation and accumulation of T cells in various nonlymphoid organs was differently affected by lack of IFN-γ, suggesting that IFN-γ influences T cell effector function to varying levels in different anatomical locations. Importantly, control of splenic T cell numbers during P. berghei ANKA infection depended on active IFN-γ-dependent environmental signals--leading to T cell apoptosis--rather than upon intrinsic alterations in T cell programming. To our knowledge, this is the first study to fully investigate the role of IFN-γ in modulating T cell function during P. berghei ANKA infection and reveals that IFN-γ is required for efficient contraction of the pool of activated T cells. 相似文献

Osteoblast-related gene expression of bone marrow cells during the osteoblastic differentiation induced by type I collagen 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
Bone marrow contains multipotent cells that differentiate into fibroblasts, adipocytes, and osteoblasts. Recently we found that type I collagen matrix induced the osteoblastic differentiation of bone marrow cells. Three weeks after cells were cultured with type I collagen, they formed mineralized tissues. In this study, we investigated the expression of osteoblast-related genes (alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, bone sialoprotein, osteopontin, and cbfa-1) during the osteoblastic differentiation. The expression of alkaline phosphatase and osteopontin genes increased time-dependently during the osteoblastic differentiation. Osteocalcin and bone sialoprotein genes were expressed in cells that formed mineralized tissues, and both were expressed only after cells reached the mineralized tissue-formation stage. On the other hand, the cbfa-1 gene was expressed from the early differentiation stage. The Asp-Gly-Glu-Ala (DGEA) amino acid domain of type I collagen interacts with the alpha2beta1 integrin receptor on the cell membrane and mediates extracellular signals into cells. When the collagen-integrin interaction was interrupted by the addition of DGEA peptide to the culture, the expression of osteoblastic phenotypes of bone marrow cells was inhibited. These findings imply that the collagen-alpha2beta1 integrin interaction is an important signal for the osteoblastic differentiation of bone marrow cells. 相似文献

Migratory lung dendritic cells (DCs) transport viral antigen from the lungs to the draining mediastinal lymph nodes (MLNs) during influenza virus infection to initiate the adaptive immune response. Two major migratory DC subsets, CD103(+) DCs and CD11b(high) DCs participate in this function and it is not clear if these antigen presenting cell (APC) populations become directly infected and if so whether their activity is influenced by the infection. In these experiments we show that both subpopulations can become infected and migrate to the draining MLN but a difference in their response to type I interferon (I-IFN) signaling dictates the capacity of the virus to replicate. CD103(+) DCs allow the virus to replicate to significantly higher levels than do the CD11b(high) DCs, and they release infectious virus in the MLNs and when cultured ex-vivo. Virus replication in CD11b(high) DCs is inhibited by I-IFNs, since ablation of the I-IFN receptor (IFNAR) signaling permits virus to replicate vigorously and productively in this subset. Interestingly, CD103(+) DCs are less sensitive to I-IFNs upregulating interferon-induced genes to a lesser extent than CD11b(high) DCs. The attenuated IFNAR signaling by CD103(+) DCs correlates with their described superior antigen presentation capacity for na?ve CD8(+) T cells when compared to CD11b(high) DCs. Indeed ablation of IFNAR signaling equalizes the competency of the antigen presenting function for the two subpopulations. Thus, antigen presentation by lung DCs is proportional to virus replication and this is tightly constrained by I-IFN. The "interferon-resistant" CD103(+) DCs may have evolved to ensure the presentation of viral antigens to T cells in I-IFN rich environments. Conversely, this trait may be exploitable by viral pathogens as a mechanism for systemic dissemination. 相似文献

The composition and characteristics of the bone marrow extracellular fluid supposedly modify the transport of cytokines, drugs, and other signaling molecules involved in the regulation of bone marrow function. Direct access to the bone marrow extracellular fluid surrounding hematopoietic cells is complicated by the virtually noncompliant surrounding bone tissue. We examined the applicability of a centrifugation method to obtain representative samples of bone marrow extracellular fluid from rats and humans. Perforated rat bones or human bone marrow biopsies were wrapped in nylon mesh baskets before being centrifuged at 180-239 g. In the rats, we found an only minor contribution of fluid from other sources than the bone marrow extracellular fluid as indicated by the average ratio of centrifugate-to-plasma activity of the extracellular tracer fluid 51Cr-labeled EDTA of 0.85. The colloid osmotic pressure in the centrifugate was consistently lower than that in the corresponding plasma in both species. In rats and humans, high-performance liquid chromatography showed a protein elution pattern from the bone marrow fluid similar to that of plasma, except for a peak eluting in the approximately 40-kDa molecular mass range. Western blotting of the cytokines erythropoietin and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor revealed generally higher amounts in the centrifugate than in the plasma. This difference was augmented during increased hematopoietic activity induced by inflammation or bleeding in rats. We conclude that the centrifugation method provides representative samples of bone marrow extracellular fluid and that extracellular signaling responses to altered hematopoiesis are more clearly reflected locally in the bone marrow interstitium than in plasma. 相似文献

In APCs, presentation by MHC II molecules of the chemically dominant peptide from the protein hen egg white lysozyme (HEL) generates different conformational isomers of the peptide-MHC II complexes (pMHC). Type B pMHCs are formed in early endosomes from exogenous peptides in the absence of H2-DM, whereas in contrast, type A pMHC complexes are formed from HEL protein in late vesicles after editing by H2-DM. Thus, H2-DM edits off the more unstable pMHC complexes, which are not presented from HEL. In this study, we show that type B pMHC complexes were presented from HEL protein only after stimulation of dendritic cells (DC) with TLR ligands or type I IFN. Type I IFN contributed to most TLR ligand-induced type B pMHC generation, as presentation decreased in DC lacking the receptor for type I IFNs (IFNAR1(-/-)). In contrast, presentation of type A pMHC from HEL and from peptide was minimally affected by TLR ligands. The relative effectiveness of CD8α(+) DC or CD8α(-) DC in presenting type B pMHC complexes varied depending on the TLR ligand used. The mechanisms of generation of type B pMHC from HEL protein with TLR stimulation did not involve H2-DM or release of peptides. DC from H2-DM-deficient mice in the presence of TLR ligands presented type B pMHC. Such DC showed a slight enhancement of HEL catabolism, but peptide release was not evident. Thus, TLR ligands and type I IFN alter the pathways of presentation by MHC II molecules of DC such that type B pMHCs are generated from protein Ag. 相似文献

Suppression of bone marrow myeloid and erythroid progenitor cells occurs after infection with a variety of different viruses. In this study, we characterize the alterations in bone marrow (BM) lymphocytes after influenza virus infection in mice. We found a severe loss of BM B cells, particularly CD43(low/-)B220(+) pre-B and immature B cells, in influenza virus-infected mice. Depletion of BM B lineage cells resulted primarily from cell cycle arrest and most likely apoptosis within the BM environment, rather than from increased trafficking of BM emigrants to peripheral lymphoid tissues. Use of gene-knockout mice indicates that depletion of BM B cells is dependent on TNF-alpha, lymphotoxin-alpha, and both TNF receptors, TNFR1-p55 and TNFR2-p75. Thus, TNF-alpha and lymphotoxin-alpha are required for loss of BM B lineage cells during respiratory infection with influenza virus. 相似文献

Glucocorticoids are widely used in the treatment of inflammatory and other diseases. However, high-dose or chronic administration often triggers troublesome side effects such as metabolic syndrome and osteoporosis. We recently described that one glucocorticoid receptor gene produces eight translational glucocorticoid receptor isoforms that have distinct gene-regulatory abilities. We show here that specific, but not all, glucocorticoid receptor isoforms induced apoptosis in human osteosarcoma U-2 OS bone cells. Whole human genome microarray analysis revealed that the majority of the glucocorticoid target genes were selectively regulated by specific glucocorticoid receptor isoforms. Real-time PCR experiments confirmed that proapoptotic enzymes necessary for cell death, granzyme A and caspase-6, were induced by specific glucocorticoid receptor isoforms. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays further suggested that glucocorticoid receptor isoform-dependent induction of proapoptotic genes was likely due to selective coregulator recruitment and chromatin modification. Interestingly, the capabilities to transrepress proinflammatory genes were similar among glucocorticoid receptor isoforms. Together, these findings provide new evidence that translational glucocorticoid receptor isoforms can elicit distinct glucocorticoid responses and may be useful for the development of safe glucocorticoids with reduced side effects. 相似文献

The role of T-lymphocytes, macrophages and stromal mechanocytes in regulation of bone marrow hemopoiesis has been studied at stress. A reliable increasing of absolute number of erythroid, granulocyte and mixed hemopoietic islets [correction of elots] in animals after 10-hours immobilisation has been found. The antithymocyte sera blockade of T-cells inhibits the appearance of new hemopoietic islets [correction of elots] in hemopoietic tissue at stress. 相似文献

In the bone marrow cavity, hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) have been shown to reside in the endosteal and subendosteal perivascular niches, which play specific roles on HSC maintenance. Although cells with long-term ability to reconstitute full hematopoietic system can be isolated from both niches, several data support a heterogenous distribution regarding the cycling behavior of HSC. Whether this distinct behavior depends upon the role played by the stromal populations which distinctly create these two niches is a question that remains open. In the present report, we used our previously described in vivo assay to demonstrate that endosteal and subendosteal stromal populations are very distinct regarding skeletal lineage differentiation potential. This was further supported by a microarray-based analysis, which also demonstrated that these two stromal populations play distinct, albeit complementary, roles in HSC niche. Both stromal populations were preferentially isolated from the trabecular region and behave distinctly in vitro, as previously reported. Even though these two niches are organized in a very close range, in vivo assays and molecular analyses allowed us to identify endosteal stroma (F-OST) cells as fully committed osteoblasts and subendosteal stroma (F-RET) cells as uncommitted mesenchymal cells mainly represented by perivascular reticular cells expressing high levels of chemokine ligand, CXCL12. Interestingly, a number of cytokines and growth factors including interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-7, IL-15, Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and stem cell factor (SCF) matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) were also found to be differentially expressed by F-OST and F-RET cells. Further microarray analyses indicated important mechanisms used by the two stromal compartments in order to create and coordinate the "quiescent" and "proliferative" niches in which hematopoietic stem cells and progenitors reside. 相似文献

Bone marrow cells (BMC) from normal mice suppressed the in vitro IgM, but not the IgG, antibody (Ab) response of spleen cells. BMC were inhibitory only when added during the first 24 hr of culture, and inhibition was not due to an induced shift in the kinetics of the response. Addition of specifically activated T cells or nonspecific T-cell-replacing factors to normal or T-depleted spleen cell cultures did not abrogate suppression while the response to the T-independent antigen DNP-polymerized flagellin or lipopolysaccharide was also suppressed. BMC did not inhibit background Ab synthesis by normal or primed cells in the absence of antigen and did not inhibit, but stimulated, DNA synthesis in normal spleen cell cultures. In addition, high-avidity Ab synthesis was preferentially suppressed. A possible role for the bone marrow suppressor cell in the induction of B cell tolerance is discussed. 相似文献
