Endogenous pyrogen (EP) 1 was first described by Beeson (1) in saline extracts of rabbit peritoneal exudate cells. These cells were >95% neutrophils, and it was assumed that neutrophils were the source of the pyrogen (1). A series of studies over the last 30 yr has established that EP is the common mediator of almost all febrile states that are not attributable to disorders of the thermoregulat...
Purpose: Myeloid cell leukaemia-1 (Mcl-1) is a valuable target in tumour treatments. However, several reports have suggested that Mcl-1 may play a role in tuberculosis infection. Therefore, we investigated the function of Mcl-1 in tuberculosis infection and the underlying regulatory mechanism. Methods: Mcl-1-shRNA was used to down-regulate Mcl-1 expression in BCG-, H37Ra-, H37Rvand XJ-MTB-infec...
Mononuclear phagocytic leukocytes, as well as polymorphonuclear leukocytes, produce and release superoxide at rest, and this is stimulated by phagocytosis. Of the mouse monocytic cells studied, alveolar macrophages released the largest amounts of superoxide during phagocytosis, followed by normal peritoneal macrophages. Casein-elicited and "activated" macrophages released smaller quantities. In...
Macrophages are critically involved in the interaction between T. crassiceps and the murine host immune system. Also, a strong gender-associated susceptibility to murine cysticercosis has been reported. Here, we examined the sex-associated expression of molecules MHC-II, CD80, CD86, PD-L1, and PD-L2 on peritoneal F4/80(hi) macrophages of BALB/c mice infected with Taenia crassiceps. Peritoneal m...
This study was designed to investigate whether chlorella supplementation may ameliorate oxidative stress and nuclear factor kappa B (NFkappaB) activation in peritoneal macrophages and liver of C57BL/6 mice fed on an atherogenic diet. The animals were maintained on an atherogenic diet (control), or an atherogenic diet supplemented with 3% (w/w) chlorella or 5% (w/w) chlorella for 12 wks. The pla...
Mice transgenic for the hemopoietic growth factor, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), exhibit a sustained elevation of GM-CSF levels and a 50-100-fold elevation of peritoneal macrophage cell numbers. The excess cell numbers were found to be generated in pre-adult life, with numbers remaining relatively constant thereafter. In the pre-adult period, no abnormalities were n...
Experiments were performed to identify arginase isoforms expressed in primary and transformed rodent macrophages and to determine the molecular mechanisms for the previously observed increase in arginase activity in macrophages cultured in hypoxia or anoxia. Results demonstrate the following: 1) mRNA and protein for hepatic-type AI arginase are expressed in primary cultures of rat and mouse per...
The microsomal fraction of M1 cells (an established cell line of myeloid leukemia) was capable of catalyzing acylation of sn-glycerol 3-phosphate by long-chain fatty acyl-CoA thioesters. The principal lipid product formed was identified as phosphatidic acid. Palmityl-CoA, stearyl-CoA, and oleyl-CoA were more effective acyl donors than linoleyl-CoA and arachidonyl-CoA. M1 cells and macrophages d...
neuropeptides, possessing specific and functional receptors on various cells of the immune system, have the potential to regulate immune responses; and the macrophages as important components of defense against various agents, are at their influence. in this study the effect of neuropeptides substance p (sp) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (cgrp) on il-1 beta production by herpes sim¬plex t...
one of the mechanisms involved in the regulation of the immune system by steroid hormones could be the monocytic-macrophage system. in this study the effect of the male hormone 5a-dht on cytokine release by peritoneal macrophages (mφ) of male and female nzb/balbc mice was investigated. macrophages from male mice activated with lps produced a greater amount of il-1β (21.8%) (p<0.05) and il-6 (19...
