Effector mechanisms of rejection.
Organ transplantation appears today to be the best alternative to replace the loss of vital organs induced by various diseases. Transplants can, however, also be rejected by the recipient. In this review, we provide an overview of the mechanisms and the cells/molecules involved in acute and chronic rejections. T cells and B cells mainly control the antigen-specific rejection and act either as e...
متن کاملTumor necrosis factor as effector molecule in monocyte mediated cytotoxicity.
A newly developed assay system which uses actinomycin D (Act D) pretreated Wehi 164 target cells allows for the measurement of human monocyte cytotoxicity in a 7-h 51Cr release assay. Using the monocyte specific monoclonal antibody M42 in a direct rosetting procedure we confirm herein that among human peripheral blood mononuclear cells cytotoxicity is restricted to monocytes. When applying stri...
متن کاملLocalization of the IgG effector site for monocyte receptors.
A peptide consisting of 10 amino acids derived from the CH3 region of human IgG was shown to bind to monocytes and to inhibit rosette formation of antibody-coated erythrocytes with human monocytes. Two myeloma proteins of the IgG1 and IgG3 subclass, both with known deletions in the CH2 region of the gamma chain, showed unimpaired ability to bind to monocytes. These experiments suggest that the ...
متن کاملActivation of monocyte effector genes and STAT family transcription factors by inflammatory synovial fluid is independent of interferon gamma
Activated monocytes play an important role in the pathogenesis of inflammatory arthritis. Blood monocytes which enter the inflamed joint become activated upon adherence to extracellular matrix and exposure to a complex inflammatory environment. We have analyzed the mechanism of monocyte activation by soluble factors present in inflammatory synovial fluid (SF). Greater than 75% of inflammatory S...
متن کاملThe CD14+CD16+ Inflammatory Monocyte Subset Displays Increased Mitochondrial Activity and Effector Function During Acute Plasmodium vivax Malaria
Infection with Plasmodium vivax results in strong activation of monocytes, which are important components of both the systemic inflammatory response and parasite control. The overall goal of this study was to define the role of monocytes during P. vivax malaria. Here, we demonstrate that P. vivax-infected patients display significant increase in circulating monocytes, which were defined as CD14...
