Recombinant human interleukin 5 (rhIL-5) expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells was purified and characterized. Molecular heterogeneity was observed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Two major components of Mr around 40,000 were detected under non-reducing conditions. However, under reducing conditions, the Mr of rhIL-5 was determined to be 22,000 and 20,000. After treatment with endoglycosidase F, a band with an apparent Mr of 18,000 was observed. Treatment of rhIL-5 with 2-mercaptoethanol followed by N-ethylmaleimide resulted in its dissociation into a monomeric form. This alkylated rhIL-5 was biologically less active than intact rhIL-5. These results suggest that rhIL-5 exists as a dimer, and that the heterogeneity of rhIL-5 is mainly due to the difference in the content of carbohydrate. Moreover, the formation of disulfide bond(s) might be important for the biological activity of rhIL-5. 相似文献

The cDNA for the human chemotactic interleukin, IL-8, was subcloned from a bacterial source into the eucaryotic vector expression system baculovirus. Recombinant human IL-8 (rhIL-8) was synthesized and secreted from Sf9 cells derived from Spodoptera frugiperda following infection of a recombinant virus harboring the full-length IL-8 structural gene. Infected Sf9 cells produced rhIL-8 in a range from 0.5 to 2.0 mg of rhIL-8/liter of postinfection cell culture media. The recombinant interleukin was purified (greater than 600-fold) to homogeneity using preparative HPLC. rhIL-8 retained all of the physical, immunological, and biochemical properties observed for the natural product, monocyte-derived IL-8. rhIL-8 was assessed for biological efficacy by three criteria: (a) ability to induce chemotaxis in human neutrophils, (b) ability to induce oxygen burst metabolism, and (c) ability to be recognized by purified rabbit antibody generated against monocyte-derived IL-8. Antibody generated against monocyte-derived IL-8 recognized rhIL-8 isolated during all stages of the purification protocol. rhIL-8 was strongly chemotactic for human neutrophils and exhibited a chemotactic index comparable to that reported for other strong chemotactic peptides. rhIL-8 was identified following sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis as a single silver-stained band having an estimated molecular weight of 9.2 kDa and displayed amino acid residue molar abundance homology predicted for the mature form of the interleukin. Baculovirus vector expression coupled to preparative HPLC proved to be a very efficient method for large-scale recombinant interleukin production. 相似文献

The plasma half-life of recombinant human interleukin-6 (rhIL-6) was determined in rats by measuring the disappearance of the biological activity as well as of the radioactivity of 125I-rhIL-6 from the circulation. The kinetics of clearance were biphasic. It consisted of a rapid initial disappearance corresponding to a half-life of 3 min, and of a second slow one corresponding to a half-life of about 55 min. By cellulose-acetate electrophoresis it was shown that rhIL-6 binds to a plasma protein resulting in a complex migrating in the beta-gamma region; 20 min after intravenous injection, about 80% of the 125I-rhIL-6 that had disappeared from the circulation was found in the liver. 125I-rhIL-6 was exclusively localized on the surface of parenchymal cells suggesting the existence of an interleukin-6 receptor on the hepatocytes. 相似文献

Recombinant human interleukin 1 (rhIL-1)alpha and rhIL-1 beta were examined for their effects on DNA synthesis, cell growth and alkaline phosphatase activity of the mouse osteoblastic cell line MC3T3-E1. The relative activity of rhIL-1 alpha and rhIL-1 beta was compared in terms of the units which induced half-maximal [3H]thymidine uptake into mouse thymocyte cultures exposed to IL-1. Both rhIL-1 alpha and rhIL-1 beta significantly inhibited DNA synthesis and division of the cells in a concentration- and cultivation time-dependent fashion. In contrast, rhIL-1 alpha and rhIL-1 beta markedly increased alkaline phosphatase activity, which is a marker of osteoblastic differentiation. This activity in cells treated with rhIL-1 alpha and rhIL-1 beta increased about 2.0- and 1.7-fold, respectively, compared with that of control cultures. Inhibition of the DNA synthesis and stimulation of alkaline phosphatase activity by both types of rhIL-1 were completely neutralized by treatment with their respective polyclonal antisera. Also, inhibition of DNA synthesis was unaffected by the addition of cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase inhibitors, and stimulation of alkaline phosphatase activity was unaffected by the addition of indomethacin. These results indicate that both rhIL-1 alpha and rhIL-1 beta have qualitatively similar biological effects on osteoblastic cells. They also suggest that IL-1 is an important modulator of the growth and differentiation of osteoblasts. 相似文献

Role of interleukin-15 and interleukin-18 in the secretion of sIL-6R and sgp130 by human neutrophils
BACKGROUND: Available data indicate that neutrophils (PMN) produce a wide range of cytokines with the potential to modulate immune response. Recent investigation have shown that interleukin (IL)-15 and IL-18 potentiated several functions of normal neutrophils. It has been reported that IL-18-induced cytokine production may be significantly enhanced by coincident addition of IL-15. AIMS: In the present study we compared the effect of recombinant human (rh)IL-15 and rhIL-18 as well as effect of a rhIL-15 and rhIL-18 combination on the induction secretion of sIL-6Ralpha and sgp130 by human neutrophils. METHODS: PMN were isolated from heparinized whole blood of healthy persons. The PMN were cultured for 18 h at 37 degrees C in a humidified incubator with 5% CO(2). rhIL-15 and/or rhIL-18 and lipopolysaccharide were tested to PMN stimulation. The culture supernatants of PMN were removed and examined for the presence of sIL-6R and sgp130 by human enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits. Cytoplasmic protein fractions of PMN were analysed for the presence of sIL-6R and sgp130 by western blotting using monoclonal antibodies capable of detecting these proteins. Cells were lysed and cytoplasmic proteins were electrophoresed on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The resolved proteins were transferred onto nitrocellulose and incubated with the primary monoclonal antibodies anti-sIL-6R and anti-sgp130. The membranes were incubated at room temperature with alkaline phosphatase anti-mouse immunoglobulin G. Immunoreactive protein bans were visualized by an AP Conjugate Substrate Kit. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: The results of our investigation revealed that IL-15 alone, similarly to IL-18, has no significant ability for the regulation of both soluble IL-6 receptors, sIL-6R and sgp130, released by human neutrophils. It is interesting to note that the secretion of sgp130 was changed after PMN stimulation with rhIL-15 in the presence of rhIL-18. The combination of rhIL-15 and rhIL-18 was shown to induce PMN to secretion relatively higher amounts of sgp130 compared with the stimulation of PMN with rhIL-15 alone and rhIL-18 alone. The results obtained suggest that IL-15 and IL-18, belonging to the inflammatory cytokines, through the regulation of sgp130 secretion must be also considered as anti-inflammatory mediators that may influence the balance reactions mediated by the IL-6 cytokine family. 相似文献

The systems that the 3-amino derivative of beta-cyclodextrin (CD3NH2) forms with the proton, the copper(II) ion and each of the enantiomers of certain amino acids (alanine, phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan) were investigated. The enantioselectivity shown by the potentiometric measurements carried out on the phenylalanine ternary systems was exploited in capillary electrophoresis by ligand exchange capillary electrophoresis (LECE) to obtain the separation of phenylalanine racemate. The tyrosine racemate was also separated by LECE. The comparison between thermodynamic and capillary electrophoresis (CE) results is discussed, in order to get a better insight into the separation mechanism. 相似文献

为解决8mol/L脉中rhIL-3的定量问题,以卵清蛋白作内标,进行常规SDS-PAGE后,作激光灰度扫描,并计算rhIL-3和卵清蛋白的峰面积,发现两种蛋白峰面积的比值与rhIL-3浓度在0.2-1.0mg/ml间呈良好线性关系。查标准曲线可以计算出8mol/L脲中rhIL-3的含量。重复性测定表明该法具有较好的重现性。 相似文献

Variable numbers of tandem repeat (VNTR) typing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis was performed on 54 strains including 23 strains derived from 9 outbreaks. PCR amplicon sizes of 12 mycobacterial interspersed repetitive unit tandem repeat loci were measured using both agarose gel electrophoresis and capillary electrophoresis. Similarities using agarose gel electrophoresis of Euclidian distances among the 23 strains derived from the 9 outbreaks were significantly lower than that using capillary electrophoresis (Wilcoxon signed ranks test, P < 0.01). By clustering analysis using unweighted pair group method using arithmetic averages, all of the 23 strains derived from the 9 outbreaks were each clustered with more than 90% similarities based on the distance using capillary electrophoresis. In contrast, differential clusters with more than 90% similarity were observed with only 7 strains derived from 3 outbreaks when analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis. These results indicated that measurement of PCR amplicon size of tandem repeat loci should be carried out using capillary electrophoresis and that agarose gel electrophoresis is not suitable for clustering analysis of M. tuberculosis VNTR typing. 相似文献

We previously demonstrated that injection of IL-2-activated natural killer (NK) cells contribute to vascular remodeling via a4b7 integrin and killer cell lectin-like receptor (KLRG) 1 and promote cardiac repair following myocardial infarction (MI). The aim of the present study is to test the hypothesis that injection of recombinant human interleukin (rhIL)-2 improves angiogenesis and preserves heart function after MI. A single IV injection of rhIL-2 two days following MI improved by 27.7% the left ventricular (LV) fractional shortening of immune competent (C57Bl6) mice, but had no effect on cardiac function of immune-deficient (NOD-SCID IL2Rγnull) mice. Immunohistochemical analysis of C57Bl6 cross sections of heart revealed that collagen deposition was reduced by 23.1% and that capillary density was enhanced in the scar area and the border zone of the infarct respectively by 22.4% and 33.6% following rhIL-2 injection. In addition, rhIL-2 enhanced 1.6-fold the in vivo endothelial cell proliferation index and 1.8-fold the number of NK cell infiltrating the infarcted heart, but had no effect on the number of cardiac CD4 and CD8 cells. In vitro, rhIL-2 activated NK cells enhanced cardiac endothelial cell proliferation by 17.2%. Here we show that a single IV injection of rhIL-2 positively impacted cardiac function by improving angiogenesis through a process involving NK cells. 相似文献

In contrast, rhIL-lα and rhIL-1β markedly increased alkaline phosphatase activity, which is a marker of osteoblastic differentiation. This activity in cells treated with rhIL-1α and rhIL-1β increased about 2.0- and 1.7-fold, respectively, compared with that of control cultures.

The influence of peptidases on human interleukin-3 (rhIL-3) production by a recombinant Streptomyces lividans strain was investigated. The bacterium produced several general peptidases and tripeptidyl peptidases compromising the authenticity of rhIL-3. The level of peptidases depended on growth morphology. Growing S. lividans as compact pellets successfully reduced peptidase activity. Maximum general peptidase activity in pellet culture was delayed after maximum rhIL-3 concentration was achieved. The activity of the tripeptidyl peptidase was product (rhIL-3) associated. 相似文献

Large-volume sample stacking of selected drugs of forensic significance by capillary electrophoresis
《Journal of chromatography. B, Analytical technologies in the biomedical and life sciences》1996,681(1):125-131
Large-volume sample stacking capillary electrophoresis (LVSS-CE) and conventional capillary electrophoresis (CE) are compared for the separation of drugs of significance to forensic and clinical analyses. LVSS-CE for cations requires the use of an electroosmotic flow (EOF) modifier in conjunction with polarity switching to effect on-column concentration of an analyte and its subsequent migration in the capillary. The run buffer consists of 0.05 mol dm−3 disodium tetraborate adjusted to pH 2.2 with orthophosphoric acid, and the EOF modifier is 0.002 mol dm−3 cetyltrimethylammonium bromide. CE investigations used an identical run buffer minus the EOF modifier. LVSS-CE and CE investigations used injection times of 30 s and 3 s, respectively. Both modes of capillary electrophoresis are compared in terms of their limits of detection, efficiency, resolution and reproducibility. LVSS-CE is also applied to the analysis of a spiked urine sample. 相似文献

The effects of recombinant cytokines on the ploidy of human megakaryocytes derived from megakaryocyte progenitors were studied using serum-free agar cultures. Nonadherent and T cell-depleted marrow cells were cultured for 14 days. Megakaryocyte colonies were identified in situ by the alkaline phosphatase anti-alkaline phosphatase technique, using monoclonal antibody against platelet IIb/IIIa. The ploidy of individual megakaryocytes in colonies was determined by microfluorometry with DAPI (4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole) staining. Recombinant human interleukin 3 (rhIL-3) and recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (rhGM-CSF) supported megakaryocyte colony formation in a dose-dependent manner. However, both rhIL-3 and rhGM-CSF had no definite ability to increase the ploidy values. Recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEpo) or recombinant human macrophage colony-stimulating factor (rhM-CSF) by itself did not stimulate the growth of megakaryocyte progenitors. rhEpo or rhM-CSF, however, stimulated increases in the number, size and ploidy values of megakaryocyte colonies in the presence of rhIL-3 or rhGM-CSF. Recombinant human interleukin 6 (rhIL-6) showed no capacity to generate or enhance megakaryocyte colony formation when added to the culture alone or in combination with rhIL-3. rhIL-6, however, increased the ploidy values in colonies when added with rhIL-3. These results show that rhEpo, rhM-CSF and rhIL-6 affect endomitosis and that two factors are required for megakaryocyte development. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is currently being extensively studied in clinical trials for the treatment of Crohn's disease (CD). Only marginal effects have, however, been reported, and the dose-response curve was bell-shaped contrasting with the reported data from in vitro experiments. AIM: To use another in vitro model to analyze the effect of rhIL-10 and rhIL-4 on the spontaneous mucosal TNF-alpha secretion in patients with CD, and to characterize the phenotype of the cells targeted by rhIL-10. METHODS: Non-inflamed colon biopsies from CD patients were cultured for 16 hours in presence of different concentrations of rhIL-10 or rhIL-4. The numbers of TNF-alpha-secreting cells among isolated lamina propria mononuclear cells (LPMNC) were estimated by Elispot. RESULTS: Both rhIL-10 and rhIL-4 down-regulate TNF-alpha secretion by LPMNC from CD patients, with a more pronounced effect with rhIL-10. These effects were closely linked to the cytokine concentrations used, with a bell-shaped dose-response curve. Residual TNF-alpha secretion, in the presence of optimal rhIL-10 concentration was mainly attributable to CD3+ T cells. In contrast, at higher rhIL-10 concentrations, CD3- cells contributed significantly to the TNF-alpha secretion. CONCLUSIONS: The in vitro model we used, demonstrates that IL-4, but mostly IL-10, efficiently suppresses TNF-alpha secretion in LPMNC from CD patients, with a dose-response curve similar to results obtained in vivo. Resistance at high rhIL-10 concentrations was associated with a change in the phenotype of TNF-alpha-secreting cells. 相似文献

Prior strategies to measure inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)) in single cells either have been qualitative or have had a limited spatial resolution. Capillary electrophoresis combined with a biological detector cell has been used to quantitate IP(3) in small regions of a Xenopus oocyte. To improve the detection limits of this method, we elucidated the experimental parameters which influenced the sensitivity and reliability of the IP(3)-detector cell coupled to capillary electrophoresis. The variables which influenced the detector cell were the magnitude of the voltage drop across the detector cell, the duration of this voltage drop, the direction of fluid flow in the capillary, the concentration of free Ca(2+) around the detector cell, and the presence of protease inhibitors during permeabilization of the detector cell. For the sample volumes imposed by the capillary diameter, the detector cell acted primarily as an IP(3) mass detector rather than a concentration detector. Characterization of the experimental variables influencing the sensitivity and reliability of this detector cell has the potential to enhance other analyte measurements performed by mating capillary electrophoresis with a biological detector cell. 相似文献

1. Effects of bath-applied recombinant human interleukin-1 (rhIL-1) and interleukin-2 (rhIL-2) on the acetylcholine (ACh)-induced K+ current recorded from identified neurons (R9 and R10) of Aplysia kurodai were investigated with voltage-clamp and pressure ejection techniques. 2. Bath-applied rhIL-1 and rhIL-2 (10-40 U/ml) reduced the ACh-induced current in the neurons without affecting the resting membrane conductance and holding current. 3. The suppressing effects of these cytokines on the current were completely reversible. 4. Heat-inactivated rhIL-1 and rhIL-2 were without effect. 5. These results suggest that the immunomodulators, IL-1 and IL-2, can modulate the ACh-induced response in the nervous system. 相似文献

How human macrophages can control the intracellular infection with Leishmania is not completely understood. IL-15 and IL-32 are cytokines produced by monocytes/macrophages that can induce antimicrobial mechanisms. Here, we evaluated the effects of recombinant human IL-15 (rhIL-15) on primary human macrophage infection and response to L. braziliensis. Priming with rhIL-15 reduced the phagocytosis of L. braziliensis and increased the killing of the parasites in monocyte-derived macrophages from healthy donors. rhIL-15 induced TNFα and IL-32 in uninfected cells. After infection, the high levels of rhIL-15-induced TNFα and IL-32 were maintained. In addition, there was an increase of NO and an inhibition of the parasite-induced IL-10 production. Inhibition of NO reversed the leishmanicidal effects of rhIL-15. Although rhIL-15 did not increase L. braziliensis-induced reactive oxygen intermediates (ROS) production, inhibition of ROS reversed the control of infection induced by rhIL-15. Treatment of the cells with rhIL-32γ increased microbicidal capacity of macrophages in the presence of high levels of vitamin D (25D3), but not in low concentrations of this vitamin. rhIL-15 together with rhIL-32 lead to the highest control of the L. braziliensis infection in high concentrations of vitamin D. In this condition, NO and ROS mediated rhIL-32γ effects on microbicidal activity. The data showed that priming of human macrophages with rhIL-15 or rhIL-32γ results in the control of L. braziliensis infection through induction of NO and ROS. In addition, rhIL-32γ appears to synergize with rhIL-15 for the control of L. braziliensis infection in a vitamin D-dependent manner. 相似文献

Pokeweed mitogen (PWM) suppressed rhIL-4-induced IgE synthesis in a concentration-dependent manner. When rhIL-4 was present from Day 0, PWM added to cultures on Day 0 or 3 inhibited MNC IgE synthesis but not when it was added on Day 6 or later. The concentration of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) in MNC culture supernatants varied directly with the quantity of PWM added. Conversely, rhIL-4-stimulated MNC culture IgE concentrations varied inversely with the dose of PWM added and the IFN-gamma concentrations induced. The addition of a rabbit polyclonal neutralizing anti-human IFN-gamma antibody to rhIL-4 plus PWM-stimulated cultures partially or completely reversed PWM-induced inhibition of rhIL-4-induced IgE synthesis. PWM failed to inhibit rhIL-4-induced IgE synthesis by isolated B cells cocultured with monocytes and T cells from a clone unable to produce IFN-gamma message or protein. These findings are consistent with the postulate that PWM inhibits rhIL-4-induced IgE synthesis by inducing the production of IFN-gamma. 相似文献
