چکیده

BACKGROUND In our previous study we found that rhsIL-6R, along with recombinant human interleukin-6, plays a regulatory role in the immune response by modulating the tumour necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-alpha) expression and its production by peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). We also suggested that sIL-6R with IL-6 secreted by human PMN (neutrophils) influenced the TNF-alpha expression and its production by autologous PBMC. AIMS Since soluble gp130 (sgp130) is a natural inhibitor for sIL-6R/interleukin-6 responses, in the present study we estimated an effect of exogenous recombinant human sgp130 and sgp130 secreted by PMN on the TNF-alpha expression and its production by PBMC. METHODS Cells were isolated from whole blood of healthy persons. The PMN were cultured in 96-well plates for 1 h at 37 degrees C in a humidified incubator with 5% CO2. After the incubation, the culture supernatant of PMN was removed and added to the PBMC. PBMC were incubated for 1 h at 37 degrees C in the same conditions. Cytoplasmic protein fractions of PMN and, for comparative purpose of PBMC, were analysed for presence of sgp130 by western blotting with the use of monoclonal antibody capable of detecting this protein. In the culture supernatants of PMN we examined the concentrations of sgp130 by human enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. TNF-alpha was measured at the protein levels as well as the mRNA levels. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS The present results revealed that exogenous recombinant human sgp130modulates the TNF-alpha expression and production by PBMC. In contrast, we did not find any effect of sgp130 secreted by PMN on the TNF-alpha expression and its production by autologous PBMC.

The immunomodulatory effect of antibiotics on the secretion of tumour necrosis factor alpha by peripheral blood mononuclear cells in response to Stenotrophomonas maltophilia stimulation.

Some antibiotics have been shown to modify the host immune response. Infection with Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, is often difficult to treat due to multiresistance to antibiotics. The authors examined the effect of four commonly used antimicrobial agents (ciprofloxacin, ceftazidime, cotrimoxazole and piperacillin-tazobactam) on tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) production by human perip...

Cytokine-induced modulation of cellular adhesion to human cerebral endothelial cells is mediated by soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1.

Tumour necrosis factor-alpha ( TNF-alpha) has been proposed as one of the key mediators of inflammatory diseases of the CNS such as multiple sclerosis. It has been shown to induce the expression of adhesion molecules which is a prerequisite for the transmigration of immune cells through the blood-brain barrier. We therefore investigated the role of TNF-alpha in the expression and release of vas...

Between adaptive and innate immunity: TLR4-mediated perforin production by CD28null T-helper cells in ankylosing spondylitis

CD3+CD4+CD28null and CD3+CD8+CD28null T cells are enriched in patients with immune-mediated diseases compared with healthy controls. This study shows that CD4+CD28null T cells express Toll-like receptors recognizing bacterial lipopolysaccharides in ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. In ankylosing spondylitis, TLR4 (23.1 +/- 21.9%) and, to a smaller extent, TLR...

Immune complexes from rheumatoid arthritis synovial fluid induce FcγRIIa dependent and rheumatoid factor correlated production of tumour necrosis factor-α by peripheral blood mononuclear cells

Immune complexes (ICs) can induce production of cytokines by peripheral blood mononuclear cells via Fc receptors. Rheumatoid factor (RF) develop in response to ICs in many clinical and experimental settings. We investigated whether and how polyethylene glycol (PEG) precipitated ICs from rheumatoid arthritis (RA) sera and synovial fluid (SF) can influence cytokine production by peripheral blood ...

Effect of soluble interleukin-6 receptor alpha and interleukin-6 secreted by polymorphonuclear leukocytes on tumor necrosis factor-alpha expression and its production by peripheral blood mononuclear cells.

BACKGROUND It has recently been shown that soluble interleukin-6 receptor (sIL-6R) alone or complexed with interleukin (IL)-6, besides their regulatory role in a wide variety of both normal and abnormal biologic reactions mediated by IL-6, could be an effective stimulator of the cell function. AIMS The key question of the present study is whether the sIL-6Ralpha or sIL-6R with IL-6 released b...
