RANTES- and interleukin-8-induced responses in normal human eosinophils: effects of priming with interleukin-5.
We report that responses of normal human eosinophils toward the chemokines RANTES and interleukin-8 (IL-8) are modulated and upregulated by priming with IL-5. In a modified Boyden chamber assay, we studied migratory responses toward the members of the chemokine family RANTES, monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), and macrophage inflammatory protein-1 alpha (MIP-1 alpha) (C-C subfamily), and I...
متن کاملInterleukin-5 inhibits glucocorticoid-mediated apoptosis in human eosinophils.
Glucocorticoids (GCs) represent one of the most effective treatments for eosinophilmediated inflammatory diseases such as asthma. GCs act through the GC receptor, leading to proinflammatory cytokine suppression and a reduction in the number of inflammatory cells including eosinophils and T cells. However, the benefits of GCs have been limited by their side effects and the presence of GC resista...
متن کاملAnalysis of the survival of mature human eosinophils: interleukin-5 prevents apoptosis in mature human eosinophils.
We and other groups have previously shown that interleukin-5 (IL-5) maintained the viability of mature eosinophils in an in vitro liquid culture system. Mature eosinophils did not proliferate but their survival was maintained in the presence of IL-5. Using this culture system, we investigated the mechanism of IL-5-mediated survival. In the absence of human IL-5 (hIL-5) mature eosinophils succum...
متن کاملP-77: Follicular Fluid Concentrations of Interleukin-6, Interleukin-8, TNF-α and Interleukin 10 in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome Women
a:4:{s:10:"Background";s:504:"While the etiology of PCOS has continued to remain a mystery, there can be found some evidence in support of the presence of chronic low-grade inflammation in women with this syndrome. One of the most significant manifestations of chronic inflammation is Pro-inflammatory cytokines. Therefore, the aim of this prospective study was to investigate the pattern of proinfla...
متن کاملHuman eosinophils constitutively express a functional interleukin-4 receptor: interleukin-4 -induced priming of chemotactic responses and induction of PI-3 kinase activity.
Similar to interleukin-3 (IL-3), IL-5, and granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), IL-4 can be secreted by several cell types involved in allergic inflammatory reactions, and therefore can affect eosinophil function similarly. In this study, we investigated the presence of an IL-4 receptor (IL-4R) on human eosinophils. When two different monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against t...
