Bacterial lipopolysaccharide induces release of tumor necrosis factor-alpha from bovine peripheral blood monocytes and alveolar macrophages in vitro.

چکیده
In this study, we demonstrate that freshly adherent bovine monocytes release tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in response to stimulation with bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). TNF-alpha was detected using actinomycin D-treated WEHI-164 murine fibrosarcoma cells as targets in an 18 hr cytotoxicity assay. Doses of LPS from 20 ng/ml to 20 micrograms/ml were capable of inducing bovine TNF-alpha. The kinetics of TNF-alpha release from bovine monocytes demonstrated peak levels of cytotoxic activity at 1-3 hr post-LPS treatment, with a subsequent decline to background levels by 18 hr post-LPS treatment. A monoclonal antibody that neutralizes recombinant human TNF-alpha (rHuTNF-alpha) significantly reduced the cytotoxicity of LPS-stimulated bovine monocyte culture supernatants. Size exclusion high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis of LPS-stimulated monocyte and alveolar macrophage culture supernatants resulted in a molecular weight elution profile similar to that of recombinant human TNF-alpha. These elution profiles are consistent with the presence of multimers of TNF-alpha. This is believed to be the first report of the in vitro production of bovine TNF-alpha.

BACKGROUND A number of studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of liquid ventilation with perfluorocarbons in improving pulmonary function in acute respiratory distress syndrome. Although it is known that perfluorocarbon-associated gas exchange facilitates lung mechanics and oxygenation, the complete mechanism by which perfluorocarbons exert their beneficial effects in acute lung injury sti...
متن کاملThe biphasic mRNA expression pattern of bovine interleukin-8 in Pasteurella haemolytica lipopolysaccharide-stimulated alveolar macrophages is primarily due to tumor necrosis factor alpha.
Pasteurella haemolytica serotype 1 is the bacterial agent responsible for the pathophysiological events associated with bovine pneumonic pasteurellosis. Our previous studies support a role for the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from P. haemolytica in the induction of proinflammatory cytokines. One of the pathological hallmarks of bovine pneumonic pasteurellosis is an influx of neutrophils into the al...

A fungal metabolite, BMS-182123, which inhibited bacterial endotoxin-induced production of tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha) in murine macrophages and human peripheral blood monocytes (in vitro), was isolated from the culture broth of Penicillium chrysogenum strain V39673. The effective BMS-182123 concentration (IC50) resulting in 50% inhibition of lipopolysaccharide-induced TNF-alpha productio...

Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha has been identified as a major inducer of colony stimulating factor (CSF)-secretion by human vascular endothelial cells and fibroblasts. In the present study we assessed the capacity of TNFs to induce release of CSF-1 from highly purified peripheral blood monocyte preparations. Whereas monocytes do not accumulate CSF-1 messenger (m)RNA constitutively and conseq...
