The goal of fluorometric analysis is to serve as an efficient, cost effective, high throughput method of analyzing phagocytosis and other cellular processes. This technique can be used on a variety of cell types, both adherent and non-adherent, to examine a variety of cellular properties. When studying phagocytosis, fluorometric technique utilizes phagocytic cell types such as macrophages, and fluorescently labeled opsonized particles whose fluorescence can be extinguished in the presence of trypan blue. Following plating of adherent macrophages in 96-well plates, fluorescent particles (green or red) are administered and cells are allowed to phagocytose for varied amounts of time. Following internalization of fluorescent particles, cells are washed with trypan blue, which facilitates extinction of fluorescent signal from bacteria which are not internalized, or are merely adhering to the cell surface. Following the trypan wash, cells are washed with PBS, fixed, and stained with DAPI (nuclear blue fluorescent label), which serves to label nuclei of cells. By a simple fluorometric quantification through plate reading of nuclear (blue) or particle (red/green) fluorescence we can examine the ratio of relative fluorescence units of green:blue and determine a phagocytic index indicative of amount of fluorescent bacteria internalized per cell. The duration of assay using a 96-well method and multichannel pipettes for washing, from end of phagocytosis to end of data acquisition, is less than 45 min. Flow cytometry could be used in a similar manner but the advantage of fluorometry is its high throughput, rapid method of assessment with minimal manipulation of samples and quick quantification of fluorescent intensity per cell. Similar strategies can be applied to non adherent cells, live labeled bacteria, actin polymerization, and essentially any process utilizing fluorescence. Therefore, fluorometry is a promising method for its low cost, high throughput capabilities in the study of cellular processes. 相似文献

A major problem in the cryopreservation of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) is the loss of phagocytic function in cryopreserved cells. This is not a problem with cryopreserved monocytes. To study the reasons for this difference in detail, PMN and monocytes were either osmotically stressed in hypertonic media or were frozen to various temperatures. Cells were then returned to conditions of physiologic osmolarity and temperature. All cells remained viable. However, the ability of PMN to phagocytize bacteria and to bind sheep erythrocytes (E) opsonized with IgG, C3b, or C3bi decreased sharply after exposure to media of 600 mOsM or greater and after freezing to -1.5 degrees C. In contrast, monocytes were unaffected until a concentration of 1500 mOsM or a freezing temperature of -5 degrees C was exceeded. To determine whether the functional losses of surface receptor activity in PMN resulted from a loss of receptors from the membranes or from inactivation or internalization of receptors, opsonized E were incubated in the supernatants from stressed PMN. On subsequent incubation with healthy PMN, these E made fewer rosettes than control opsonized E. The inhibitory effect of the supernatants on rosetting of IgG-sensitized E could be removed by preincubation with IgG bound to Sepharose 4B. Immunoprecipitation of C3b and C3bi receptors from surface-iodinated, osmotically stressed, and control PMN suggested that about 50% of cell surface complement receptors were lost from the cell surface during osmotic stress. These experiments suggest that receptors for IgG and C3 are extruded from PMN cell membranes as a result of hyperosmotic stress, which is associated with the freeze-thaw cycle. This may be an early event in the functional damage done to PMN during attempts at cryopreservation. 相似文献

An assay of granulocyte viability has been developed which yields information about rwo important cell parameters, cell membrane integrity and phagocytic activity. The assay is based on the fact that only live cells can accumulate fluorescein, which is enzymatically split from the nonfluorescent substrate fluorescein diacetate. Dead cells, on the other hand, become permeable to the fluorescent red dye ethidium bromide. When cells are exposed first to opsonized zymosan particles, which they can phagocytize, then to a combination of these fluorescent dyes, one can distinguish microscopically between dead cells with fluorescent red nuclei, live cells which fluoresce green, and live cells with phagocytic function which are swollen with the pink zymosan particles in a green fluorescing cytoplasm. This assay takes 20--30 min and can be used to distinguish different degrees of cellular damage after cryopreservation. 相似文献

The complement receptor type 1 (CR1) surface distribution, density and immune adherence efficiency were determined in circulating PMN activated by fMLP, NAP-1/IL-8, TNF, GM-CSF and C5a, or exudate PMN harvested from skin-blisters. These observations were compared with those observed on resting peri-pheral blood PMN. PMN activators known to upregulate CR1 expression did not induce a significant increase in CR1 clustering, or immune adherence efficiency towards opsonized immune complexes. By contrast, increase in CR1 density at the surface of exudated PMN was accompanied by an increased clustering. This clustering was however insufficient to increase the binding efficiency for immune complexes. Eventually, CR1 expression of exudated neutrophil could not be increased further by stimulation with fMLP or PMA. These results indicated that clustering of CR1 on PMN may occur in vivo. Such reaction might determine the phagocytic potential of the cell for opsonized micro-organisms or debris. This clustering could not be attributed to one of the PMN activators tested. 相似文献

Antisperm antibody (ASA)- and complement (C)-mediated immune injury to human sperm is thought to be caused in part by phagocytic neutrophils. To investigate this process, we co-cultured purified human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) with swim-up sperm in the presence of ASA-positive and ASA-negative sera and assayed for PMN respiratory burst activity, monitored by the release of superoxide anion (O2-) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) and opsonized zymosan were used as positive controls. Phagocytosis of ASA-positive and C-bound sperm by PMN did not enhance O2- production when compared to incubation of sperm with ASA-negative sera. Phagocytosis of ASA-positive and C-bound sperm also resulted in minimal release of H2O2 when compared with ASA-positive and C-negative sperm that were not phagocytosed. In contrast, PMN were maximally stimulated to release O2- in response to either opsonized zymosan or PMA. The kinetics of PMA-induced O2- release was unaffected by the presence of ASA-positive and C-bound sperm. Cytocentrifuge preparations of PMN incubated with ASA-positive and C-bound sperm revealed limited O2- release at the site of PMN/sperm contact. These results indicated that 1) phagocytosis of motile sperm by PMN requires the binding of both ASA and C to the sperm surface; 2) phagocytosis of ASA-positive and C-positive sperm by PMN fails to release reactive oxygen species; and 3) metabolic processes associated with PMN respiratory burst activity may not be coupled to the ingestion of ASA-positive and C-bound sperm. 相似文献

Summary Changes in surface morphology, as observed by scanning electron microscopy, appear rapidly when human polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) are challenged with bacteria. Monolayers of PMN adhering to glass were incubated with opsonized E. coli from 5 sec to 10 min, and then fixed and prepared for SEM. As early as 5 sec after phagocytic challenge, E. coli are found in contact with PMN and in the process of engulfment into open cavities formed by lamellipodia. The shape of the mouth of the forming phagocytic vacuole is related to the orientation of bacteria during entry. Bacteria engulfed into early forming phagosomes are surrounded by a large open space between the bacteria and the phagosome wall. As phagocytosis proceeds, the space is reduced and the loose fit around the entering bacteria becomes tight. By 30 sec, bacteria may be completely internalized and by 1 min phagocytized E. coli are packed into bulging PMN. The observations reveal the variability and rapidity of the phagocytic response and confirm the presence of sensitive mechanisms for host defense by PMN.This work was supported by research grants from the University of North Carolina Research Council and the National Institutes of Health (A1 02430) 相似文献

Binding of rough lipopolysaccharides (LPS) to human leukocytes. Inhibition by anti-LPS monoclonal antibody 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

The binding of rough LPS (ReLPS from Salmonella minnesota R595) to human peripheral blood polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN), monocytes, and lymphocytes was examined by using fluorescein-labeled LPS and flow cytometry. At 4 degrees C, FITC-ReLPS bound rapidly in a concentration- and time-dependent way to PMN, monocytes, and lymphocytes. Because mononuclear cells showed both binding and nonbinding cell populations, FITC-ReLPS was used in conjunction with specific phycoerythrin-labeled mAb to identify these cell subpopulations. In contrast to T lymphocytes and NK cells, all monocytes and B lymphocytes efficiently bound FITC-ReLPS. PMN and monocytes showed two to three times more cell-associated FITC-ReLPS when cells were incubated at 37 degrees C compared with incubation at 4 degrees C. Binding of FITC-ReLPS to lymphocytes was similar for both 4 degrees C and 37 degrees C incubation conditions. In contrast to 4 degrees C, at 37 degrees C cell-associated LPS reflects surface-bound as well as internalized LPS, as demonstrated with fluorescence quenching of extracellular FITC-ReLPS by trypan blue. At 4 degrees C, binding of FITC-ReLPS was inhibited by polymyxin B. In addition, purified IgM mAb directed against hydrophobic acyl residues of ReLPS showed more than 95% inhibition of ReLPS binding to leukocytes, indicating the ability of specific mAb to prevent LPS-cell interactions necessary to exert biologic effects. The use of mAb, directed against different parts of the LPS molecule, provides an alternative method for LPS binding-inhibition studies. 相似文献

The phagocytosis process of unencapsulated MIAT-negative strains that, although binding very poorly to human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) at 4 degrees C, are efficiently killed by these cells at 37 degrees C, was studied. At 37 degrees C the number of bacteria bound to the PMN external surface was similar to that observed at 4 degrees C (about 100 bacteria/100 PMN after 60 min); on the contrary the number of internalized bacteria was much higher (from 500 bacteria/100 PMN after 60 min). Interactions between phagocytosis-sensitive Klebsiella pneumoniae strains (PSK) and PMN were then compared with those of two isogenic Escherichia coli strains with and without type 1 fimbriae. Whereas PSK strain binding to blocked PMN was very slow and became significant only after 5-6 h, that of phagocytosis-sensitive fimbriated E. coli was rapid and efficient. Phagocytosis-resistant, non fimbriated E. coli strain bound with an efficiency that, within the first 60 min, was not very different from that of the PSK strains. However, longer incubations led to increases in PSK binding, whereas unfimbriated E. coli remained constant. PSK and fimbriated E. coli strains were efficiently internalized and killed, whereas the unfimbriated E. coli strain was not. It is suggested that PMN can phagocytize unopsonized bacteria through two different mechanisms. By one mechanism, observed with the fimbriated E. coli strain, PMN bind many more bacteria than those they can internalize. By the other, observed with PSK strains, PMN bind only the bacteria they can immediately internalize. 相似文献

Stimulation of human neutrophil Fc receptor-mediated phagocytosis by a low molecular weight cytokine 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

Human neutrophil Fc receptor-mediated phagocytosis can be markedly enhanced by a low m.w. (less than 10,000) heat-labile cytokine(s) derived from specifically stimulated human mononuclear cells and from a human T cell line, MO(t). PMN incubated with supernatant from control mononuclear leukocyte (MNL) culture bound EIgG (percentage of rosettes = 73.7% +/- 7.1) but did not ingest the attached targets (phagocytic index, PI = 40.7 +/- 9.5) as efficiently as PMN incubated with supernatant from adherent MNL, which had ingested EIgG and were then cocultured with nonadherent MNL (PI = 264.3 +/- 46.3). Cytokine-containing supernatants were fractionated on YM-10 Centricon microconcentrators, and the effluent (YM-10E) was found to contain the phagocytosis-enhancing activity. Optimal Fc receptor-mediated ingestion by YM-10E-stimulated PMN required a critical level of target-bound IgG; stimulation was dose dependent and detectable after 5 min at 37 degrees C with a maximal response by 15 min. Monoclonal antibody 3G8 (anti-PMN Fc receptor) inhibited in a dose-dependent fashion both Fc receptor-mediated rosette formation and ingestion by nonstimulated and YM-10E-stimulated PMN. Solid-phase 3G8 Fab had the same effect. A previously undescribed monoclonal antibody, 1C2, exhibited a different pattern of inhibition. It had no effect on rosetting or ingestion of EIgG by nonstimulated PMN; however, it inhibited EIgG phagocytosis by YM-10E-stimulated PMN down to the level of nonstimulated ingestion without affecting rosette formation. Solid-phase 1C2 had the same effect. These data indicate that phagocytosis mediated by 3G8-positive Fc receptors may be enhanced by cytokine(s) stimulation in a manner requiring the molecule recognized by 1C2. Monoclonal antibodies to the alpha-chain of CR3 had only minimal effects on YM-10E-stimulated ingestion. Fluorescence flow cytometry of YM-10E-stimulated PMN, indirectly stained with 3G8 or 1C2, indicated that cytokine enhancement of EIgG ingestion occurred without an increase in either 3G8 or 1C2 binding sites. These data show that the low avidity Fc receptor, which binds immune complexes, may be functionally modulated at sites of inflammation where PMN and macrophages mediate clearance and destruction of immune complexes and opsonized particles. 相似文献

Lysosomal enzyme release from human monocytes was evaluated in response to opsonized zymosan, opsonized sheep erythrocytes, and latex beads. Monocytes were found to release lysosomal enzymes immediately upon challenge with all three phagocytosable particles. Cytochalasin B enhanced beta-glucosaminidase release from mononuclear cells challenged with opsonized zymosan or opsonized red blood cells, but inhibited the response to latex particles. Lysosomal enzyme release was found to be independent of protein synthesis, and in the absence of cytochalasin B required the stimulus to be presented either as a phagocytosable particle or immobilized on a surface. The kinetics of enzyme release and phagocytosis were also examined and found to be different, lending support to the hypothesis that lysosomal enzyme release may be a physiologic response to a biologic stimulus in vivo and not simply an "accidental" consequence of an ongoing phagocytic event. 相似文献

We have used biologically active derivatives of beta-nerve growth factor (NGF), modified by biotinylation via carboxyl groups, to target the specific binding of liposomes to cultured rat and human tumor cells bearing NGF receptors. Liposomes, to be used for targeting, were prepared by conjugating streptavidin to phospholipid amino groups on liposomes prepared by reverse-phase evaporation. Approximately 2,000 streptavidin molecules were incorporated per liposome. Addition of biotinylated NGF, but not of unmodified NGF, could mediate the subsequent binding of radiolabeled streptavidin-liposomes to rat pheochromocytoma PC12 cells in suspension at 4 degrees C. In contrast, incubation with biotinylated NGF did not mediate the binding of hemoglobin-conjugated liposomes. Under optimal incubation conditions, approximately 570 streptavidin-liposomes were specifically bound per cell. Biotinylated NGF was also used to obtain specific binding of streptavidin-liposomes containing encapsulated fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled dextran to PC12 cells or human melanoma HS294 cells. When HS294 cells were incubated at 37 degrees C following targeted liposome binding at 4 degrees C, the cell-associated fluorescence appeared to become internalized, displaying a perinuclear pattern of fluorescence similar to that observed when lysosomes were stained with acridine orange. Trypsin treatment abolished cell-associated fluorescence when cells were held at 4 degrees C but did not alter the fluorescence pattern in cells following incubation at 37 degrees C. When liposomes containing carboxyfluorescein, a dye capable of diffusing out of acidic compartments, were targeted to HS294 cells, subsequent incubation at 37 degrees C resulted in diffuse cytoplasmic fluorescence, suggesting that internalized liposomes encounter lysosomal or prelysosomal organelles. 相似文献

The effects of 2-deoxyglucose (DOG), an inhibitor of glycolysis, on guinea pig polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) obtained from peritoneal exudates was examined. ATP levels in PMN were reduced by 40% by one hour following an incubation with 2-deoxyglucose. When complement (C3) coated 14C-staphylococcus aureus, C3 coated lipopolysaccharide-paraffin oil droplets (LPSPO), 14C-pneumococcus opsonized with IgG, or albumin coated paraffin oil droplets opsonized with IgG were added to cell suspensions containing DOG, the phagocytizing rate was 1,310 ± 55 cpm/5 x 106 cells/15 minutes, 6 ± 2 μg paraffin oil (PO)/107 cells/minute, 2,250 ± 175 cpm/1 x 106 cells/20 minutes or 0.037 ± 0.01 mg PO/107 cells/minute compared to control values of 5,970 ± 275 cpm/5 x 106 cells/15 minutes, 35 ± μg PO/107 cells/15 minutes, 4,510 ± 200 cpm/1 x 106 cells/20 minutes and 0.067 ± 0.01 mg PO/107 cells/minute. In parallel studies the phagocytic index for latex was 0.74 ± 0.28 in DOG compared to control of 2.36 ± 1.13 and the phagocytic rate of albumin coated paraffin oil droplets was 0.029 ± 0.01 mg PO/107 PMN/minute in DOG compared to control of 0.048 mg PO/107 cells/minute. When ATP levels were maintained by the simultaneous addition of 5 mM glucose or pyruvate to media containing DOG, latex ingestion was improved to 1.15 ± 0.3 with glucose and 1.59 ± 0.64 with pyruvate and albumin coated particles to 0.045 ± 0.01 mg PO/107 PMN/minute with pyruvate. There was no improvement in the uptake of either the C3 dependent particles or IgG coated Pneumococci in media containing DOG and glucose and/or pyruvate. Following the removal of DOG from the extracellular medium and the addition of pyruvate or glucose, phagocytosis of C3 dependent LPS-PO was restored to normal values. Neither the binding of C3 or IgG coated particles to the PMN nor the lateral movement of glycoprotein utilizing concanavalin A capping was affected by DOG. Thus, the presence of DOG in the PMN containing adequate amounts of ATP will selectively and reversibly inhibit those surface events required for phagocytosis of C3 and IgG bound particles but not latex particles or albumin particles which non-specifically bind to PMN. 相似文献

The complement-mediated binding of soluble antibody/dsDNA immune complexes to human neutrophils 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The complement-mediated binding of soluble antibody/3H-dsDNA immune complexes (prepared in vitro) to human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) has been investigated quantitatively. Studies with isolated complement components in conjunction with experiments on the binding of these complexes to human red blood cells suggest that the binding to both cell types is mediated predominantly by CR1 (C4b-C3b) receptors but that CR3 (iC3b or C3d-g) receptors may play a role in binding to PMN but probably not to RBC. Our results also indicate that under the standard conditions of these assays (37 degrees C, 20 to 40 min incubations) there is no significant internalization of the soluble antibody/dsDNA immune complexes after they are bound by the PMN. 相似文献

Binding of murine monoclonal antibody PMN7C3 to human neutrophils results in a large rapid, dose dependent transient increase in intracellular free calcium as measured by QUIN-2 fluorescence. Unlike other calcium mobilizing agents PMN7C3 does not induce any increase in respiratory burst activity over basal level. The PMN7C3 effect requires multivalent binding. Chelation of extracellular calcium does not significantly decrease the fluorescence transient generated by exposure to PMN7C3. Lowering of basal levels of intracellular free calcium concentration by maintaining QUIN-2-loaded PMN in calcium free medium eliminates the fluorescence transient. The observations demonstrate that a cell surface receptor mediated intracellular free calcium transient may be generated without any associated respiratory burst activation. 相似文献

The binding of soluble, multimeric ligands of the major cleavage fragment of complement component 3 (C3b) to polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) has been examined. The oligomers bound entirely via complement C3 receptor type 1 (CR1). There was a single affinity of binding (0.65 nM) at 37 degrees C, while this high affinity binding accounted for only a minority of ligand bound at 0 degree C, with the rest showing a 50-100-fold lower affinity. Azide, fluoride, cytochalasin B, and colchicine had no effect on oligomer binding to PMN. Binding of oligomers had no effect on CR1 expression by PMN. C3b oligomers were not spontaneously internalized by PMN, but were internalized in response to phorbol dibutyrate (PDBu). Both CR1 initially present on the PMN plasma membrane and CR1 initially present in the internal pool of receptors were able to participate in PDBu-induced ligand internalization. C3b oligomers attached to the detergent-insoluble cell cytoskeleton during incubation at 37 degrees C, but cytochalasin B did not inhibit PDBu-induced ligand internalization. Internalized ligand was no longer associated with the detergent-insoluble cytoskeleton. These data demonstrate that 1) some CR1 diffusion is required for optimal oligomer binding; 2) high affinity ligand is not a signal for plasma membrane expression of the internal pool of CR1; 3) CR1 cross-linking is not a sufficient signal for endocytosis; and 4) functional CR1 association with the cytoskeleton which occurs at the plasma membrane is not required for ligand internalization. 相似文献

The visible wavelength excited fluorophore 3,3'- dioctadecylindocarbocyanine iodide (Dil[3]) was incorporated into human low density lipoprotein (LDL) to form the highly fluorescent LDL derivative dil(3)-LDL. Dil(3)-LDL binds to normal human fibroblasts and to human fibroblasts defective in LDL receptor internalization but does not bind to LDL receptor-negative human fibroblasts at 4 degrees C or 37 degrees C. It is internalized rapidly at 37 degrees C by normal fibroblasts and depresses the activity of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMG-CoA reductase) in a manner similar to that of LDL. It is prevented from binding to the LDL receptor by an excess of unlabeled LDL or by heparin sulfate. Identical distributions of dil(3)- LDL are observed on cells by either indirect immunofluorescence with fluorescein-labeled antibody or directly by dil(3) fluorescence. Upwards of 45 molecules of dil(3) are incorporated per molecule of LDL without affecting binding to the receptor. This labeling renders individual molecules visible by their fluorescence and enables the derivative to be used in dynamic studies of LDL-receptor motion on living fibroblasts by standard fluorescence techniques at low LDL receptor density. Observations with this derivative indicate that the LDL-receptor complex is immobilized on the surface of human fibroblasts but, when free of this linkage, undergoes a Brownian motion consistent with theory. 相似文献

Specific binding, internalization, and degradation of human neutrophil activating factor by human polymorphonuclear leukocytes 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The interaction of 125I-labeled recombinant human neutrophil activating factor (NAF) with polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) was studied by means of a radioreceptor assay. The binding was characterized by a rapid transition (t1/2 less than or equal to 1 min) from a pH 3-sensitive state at 4 degrees C to pH 3 resistance at 37 degrees C. This was not caused by internalization of NAF since pH 3-resistant bound iodinated NAF could still be exchanged by an excess of nonlabeled NAF, i.e. was dissociable. Internalized iodinated NAF was processed into trichloroacetic acid-soluble forms. Scatchard transformation of binding isotherms at 4 and 37 degrees C led to nonlinear curves, a finding which is consistent with the expression of two receptor populations, one with high (KD = 11-35 pM) and the other with lower affinity (KD = 640-830 pM) at 4 degrees C. Numbers of the low affinity binding sites were approximately 34,000, and those with high affinity were 5,200/PMN when estimated at 4 degrees C. Binding of iodinated NAF to PMN was specific since it could be competed by an excess of nonlabeled NAF but not by two other activators of PMN function, formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine or human recombinant granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor. In addition to human PMN, NAF also bound specifically to two human monocytic cell lines; however, only the low affinity binding site could be detected on these cells. 相似文献

In the 1774.2 macrophage cell line, microtubule disassembly by colchicine causes the polarization of membrane functions ane structure. Colchicine-treated cells develop a bulge or protuberance that is bordered by microvillous membrane. The protuberance is the site of concanavalin A cap formation. The fluid pinocytosis of horseradish peroxidase and of fluorescein- and rhodamine-conjugated high molecular- weight dextrans, the adsorptive pinocytosis of concanavalin A, and the concentration and phagocytosis at 37 degrees C of a range of phagocytic particles (IgG- and complement-opsonized erythrocytes, complement- opsonized zymosan, latex shpres, albumin-stabilized oil droplets) are all similarly restricted to the protuberance. A reduction in the rate of dextran pinocytosis, determined by fluorimetry, and reductions in phagocytic rates for oil emulsion and IgG-opsonized erythrocytes accompany the polarization of endocytic activity in colchicine-trated 1774.2 macrophages. Membrane receptors for phagocytic particles are not confined to the protuberance but rather may display their own unique topographical asymmetry. The inherent topography of receptors was inferred from particle distribution under conditions that limit particle-receptor redistribution (after labeling at 4 degrees C or a very brief incubation at 37 degrees C). Under these restrictive conditions, latex binding sites were detected over the whole membrane whereas receptors for IgG-opsonized erythrocytes, aggregated IgG, complement-opsonized erythrocytes, and complement-opsonized zymosan were excluded from the protuberance. Thus, functional (endocytosis) and structural (inherent receptor distribution) analyses of membrane topography define different patterns of asymmetry in protuberant cells. The asymmetry induced in 1774.2 macrophages by colchicine is highly analogous to the functional and structural polarity of epithelial cells. Exploration of this analogy may provide insight into the development of polarized epithelia and, more generally, into mechanisms by which specialized areas of membrane are established. 相似文献

The respiratory burst response to Histoplasma capsulatum by human neutrophils. Evidence for intracellular trapping of superoxide anion 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
Human neutrophils (PMN) have received little attention as to the role they play in host defense against Histoplasma capsulatum (Hc). We have characterized the binding and phagocytosis of Hc yeasts by human PMN and quantified the PMN respiratory burst in response to this organism. mAb specific for CD11a, CD11b, and CD11c all partially blocked the attachment of unopsonized yeasts to PMN; a mAb to CD18 inhibited attachment by greater than 90%. Thus, human PMN recognize and bind Hc yeasts via CD18 adhesion receptors as has been found for human cultured macrophages and alveolar macrophages. Unopsonized yeasts were phagocytosed by PMN, but phagocytosis was increased markedly by heat-labile and heat-stable serum opsonins. These opsonins promoted enhanced phagocytosis of yeasts by increasing the attachment of Hc yeasts to the PMN membrane. Phagocytosis of viable or heat-killed Hc yeasts by PMN did not induce the secretion of superoxide anion (O2-) as quantified by the reduction of cytochrome c. O2- was not detected when yeasts were opsonized in normal serum or immune serum, or at a ratio of yeasts to PMN of up to a 100:1. However, phagocytosis of opsonized yeasts by PMN did not prevent them from subsequently releasing O2- after further incubation with opsonized zymosan or PMA. Opsonized Hc yeasts clearly stimulated the PMN respiratory burst as quantified by intracellular reduction of nitroblue tetrazolium, reduction of cytochrome c in the presence of cytochalasin D, oxygen consumption, luminol-enhanced and nonenhanced chemiluminescence, and H2O2 production. These data suggest that phagocytosis of Hc yeasts by PMN is associated with intracellular entrapment of O2- that is not detectable by reduction of extracellular cytochrome c. 相似文献

Amidation of C3 at the thiolester site: stimulation of chemiluminescence and phagocytosis by a new inflammatory mediator 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

We studied the ability of particle-bound and fluid-phase C3b monomers and monomeric amidated C3 (prepared by treatment of purified human C3 with ammonium chloride or methylamine) to stimulate chemiluminescence of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) and monocytes and to promote phagocytosis in the absence of antibody. Particle-bound C3b evoked chemiluminescence from both PMN and monocytes, and fluid-phase C3b (0.5 mg/ml) elicited significant chemiluminescence from PMN but not from monocytes. Amidated forms of C3, both particle bound and fluid phase, were potent stimulators of chemiluminescence from phagocytic cells and caused a significantly greater response than did C3b. The phagocytosis of 1-micron microspheres by PMN and monocytes was enhanced by coating them with purified C3b in an antibody-free system. Microspheres coated with amidated C3 were avidly phagocytized, and to a greater degree than were C3b-coated microspheres. In a direct binding assay with tritiated monomeric C3b and amidated C3, the affinity of the PMN complement receptor type 1 for C3b (Ka = 4.9 X 10(7) L/M) was similar to that for amidated C3 (Ka = 5.7 X 10(7) L/M). However, there was a fourfold increase in the number of apparent binding sites for amidated C3. This increase did not reflect binding of amidated C3 to the complement receptor type 3, because blocking of CR3 with the monoclonal antibody OKM 10 failed to decrease binding of amidated C3. In sites of increased ammoniagenesis, such as the kidney in chronic renal failure, amidated C3 may play a role as an inflammatory mediator by stimulating oxidative metabolism in phagocytic cells. 相似文献
