Background: CD14 is known as a receptor for bacterial LPS (Lipopolysaccharides) and is followed by inflammatory reactions. This receptor on macrophage surface has a major role for recognition and clearance was happen without inflammatory reaction. Prolonged exposure to microbial products decreases the risk of allergic reactions. This is related to high level of CD14 in blood cells. Although the...
BACKGROUND Pathological bone resorption (marginal erosions and juxta-articular osteoporosis) by osteoclasts commonly occurs in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). OBJECTIVES To define the nature of the mononuclear precursor cells from which osteoclasts are formed in inflamed synovial tissues and to determine the cellular and humoral factors which influence osteoclast differentiation. METHOD Macropha...
Macrophages are a major component of the innate immune response, comprising the first line of defense against various intracellular pathogens, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In this report, we studied the factors that regulate growth of M. tuberculosis H37Rv in subpopulations of human monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs). In healthy donors, M. tuberculosis H37Rv grew 5.6-fold more rapidly...
BACKGROUND Monocytes are critical in innate immunity and transplantation. Three monocyte subsets exist, CD14(++)CD16(-), CD14(++)CD16(+) and CD14(+)CD16(++) monocytes; cell counts of CD14(++)CD16(+) and CD14(+)CD16(++) monocytes are increased in pre-transplant chronic kidney disease. Interestingly, the effect of immunosuppressants on monocyte heterogeneity has not been well studied. METHODS T...
Blood of volunteers, genotyped for the CD14 C(-159)-->T polymorphism, showed no difference in cytokine release when stimulated with nine CD14-dependent immune stimuli. An analysis of the published data on the proposed association of CD14 genotype with membrane CD14 density revealed no significant correlation, questioning a functional impact of the CD14 polymorphism.
Gamma interferon (IFN-gamma)-primed human gingival fibroblasts (HGF) have been shown to produce higher levels of interleukin-8 (IL-8) upon stimulation with bacterial products and inflammatory cytokines than nonprimed controls. In this study, we examined whether priming of HGF with IFN-gamma up-regulates IL-8 production by the cells in response to purified lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The priming e...
Infections are frequent complications in end-stage renal failure patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD), and peripheral blood monocytes are important cells in host defense against infections. The majority of circulating monocytes express high levels of lipopolysaccharide receptor antigen CD14 and are negative for the immunoglobulin Fcgamma receptor type III (CD16). We studied the occurrence of a...
The subpopulation of strongly CD14-positive (CD14++) monocytes and monocytes coexpressing the CD16 antigen and low levels of CD14 (CD14+/CD16+ cells) were isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) followed by stimulation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) at 1 micrograms/mL. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) after reverse transcription of isolated mRNA (RT-PCR) revealed similar levels of ...
To identify the role in periodontal inflammatory diseases of human gingival fibroblasts (HGF), the major constituents of gingival tissue, the expression of CD14, a possible lipopolysaccharide (LPS) receptor, and the release of soluble CD14 (sCD14) by HGF were examined. Among the HGF samples from the nine donors tested, more than 50% of the HGF from five donors expressed CD14 but less than 20% o...
The subset of human blood monocytes expressing low levels of CD14 and high levels of CD16 (CD14+CD16+) exhibits features resembling mature tissue macrophages and can be expanded in inflammatory conditions. We analyzed expression of CC chemokine receptors (CCR) in CD14+CD16+ versus CD14++ monocytes, which may be crucial for specific trafficking. Multicolor flow cytometric analysis of whole perip...
