Fas (CD95) induces proinflammatory cytokine responses by human monocytes and monocyte-derived macrophages.

چکیده
Fas (CD95, APO-1) is regarded as the prototypical cell death receptor of the TNFR superfamily. Fas-induced apoptosis is generally considered to be a noninflammatory process, contributing to the silent resolution of immune and inflammatory responses. However, accumulating evidence indicates that Fas may also induce cellular activation signals. We hypothesized that Fas could activate proinflammatory cytokine responses by normal human monocytes and macrophages. Monocytes were isolated by negative immunoselection from the PBMC fraction of venous blood from healthy volunteers, and monocyte-derived macrophages were cultivated in vitro. Both monocytes and monocyte-derived macrophages released TNF-alpha and IL-8 following Fas ligation, and conditioned medium from Fas-activated monocytes and macrophages induced the directed migration of neutrophils in a chemotaxis assay. Fas-induced monocyte cytokine responses were associated with monocyte apoptosis, nuclear translocation of NF-kappaB, and cytokine gene expression and were blocked by caspase inhibition but not by inhibition of IL-1beta signaling. In contrast, Fas-induced macrophage cytokine responses occurred in the absence of apoptosis and were caspase independent, indicating maturation-dependent differences in the Fas signaling pathways that lead to proinflammatory cytokine induction. Rather than contributing to the resolution of inflammation, Fas ligation on circulating monocytes and tissue macrophages may induce proinflammatory cytokine responses that can initiate acute inflammatory responses and tissue injury.

Hepcidin Induces M1 Macrophage Polarization in Monocytes or THP-1 Derived Macrophages
Background: Macrophage polarization plays a critical role in determining the inflammatory states. Hepcidin is a key negative regulator of iron homeostasis and functions. Although hepcidin has been shown to affect ferroportin expression in macrophages, whether it affects macrophage polarization is still largely unknown. Objective: To address whether hepcidin ind...
متن کاملDifferential Induction of Apoptosis by Fas–Fas Ligand Interactions in Human Monocytes and Macrophages
Human monocytes undergo spontaneous apoptosis upon culture in vitro; removal of serum from the media dramatically increases the rate of this process. Monocyte apoptosis can be significantly abrogated by the addition of growth factors or proinflammatory mediators. We have evaluated the role of the endogenous Fas-Fas ligand (FasL) interaction in the induction of this spontaneous apoptosis and fou...

Human peripheral blood monocytes (HPBM) were cultured in the absence of human serum and were converted into a state exhibiting a high accessory function expressed by their ability of supporting lymphocyte proliferation. After a prolonged culture in serum free media the monocyte derived cells were highly viable, increased in size and developed veils and dendritiform elongatio'l1s. Paralleli...
