Hairy cell leukemia (HCL) is a chronic B-cell lymphoproliferative disorder with pathological manifestations usually including splenomegaly and pancytopenia. Interferons (IFNs), specifically of the alpha subtypes, have shown a significant anti-tumor effect in HCL patients, with improvement of hematological parameters within the first few months of treatment. However, the therapeutic effect of IFN-alpha is still rather limited. The mechanisms responsible for the beneficial action of IFN-alpha in HCL patients are unclear. A continuous line of cells (Eskol) from a patient diagnosed with HCL was established and shown to have several properties of HCL. Even though, Eskol cells are very resistant to anti-proliferative activity of IFN-alpha, Daudi cells, another human B-cell-derived cell line, are very sensitive to anti-proliferative activity of IFN-alpha and are commonly used as a model cell to test anti-proliferative effect of IFN-alpha. To understand the molecular reason(s) behind the observed obvious differences to IFN sensitivity of above cells, we have analyzed the expression levels of BCL2, caspase-1, Laminin and PARP in these cells. We found that Daudi cells do not express BCL2 at all, and probably because of that, these cells have constantly cleaved, and probably activated form of caspase-1. However, when we over-expressed BCL2 in these cells, they lost processed form of caspase-1 and became resistant to anti-proliferative activity of IFN-alpha. These results let us to suggest that IFN-alpha sensitivity of B-cell lymphomas, once again, depends on the presence or absence of BCL2. 相似文献

Two human cell lines (HEC-1, IFr) which are resistant to the anticellular and/or antiviral action of HuIFN-α or -β have been tested with respect to the anticellular and antiviral activities of HuIFN-γ. HEC-1 cells were totally resistant to the antiviral activity of the IFN-γ, with either EMC or VSV as challenge virus. Per antiviral unit HuIFN-γ exerted a much stronger inhibitory effect on the growth of the interferon-sensitive cell line RSa than did IFN-α. IFr cells were more resistant to the anticellular effect of IFN-γ than the wild-type cells (RSa), and HEC-1 cells were totally resistant to the anticellular effect of HuIFN-γ. 2-5A synthetase was present at a high basic level in untreated HEC-1 cells, as previously reported. This activity was not influenced by either HuIFN-β or -γ. Similar levels of 2-5A synthetase were induced by HuIFN-γ in IFr and RSa cells; however, this induction was 10 times lower than that obtained for HuIFN-β. A 2′-phosphodiesterase activity was detected in control extracts from RSa and was not induced by either HuIFN-β or -γ. There was no correlation between the amplitude of 2-5A synthetase induction and extent of anticellular effect of either HuIFN-γ in different cell lines or of different interferons in a given cell line. Finally, HEC-1 represents the first example of a human cell line which is resistant to all three types of interferon (HuIFN-α, -β, and -γ). 相似文献

Interferon-α (IFN-α) produced at high levels by human plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) can specifically regulate B-cell activation to Toll-like receptor (TLR) 7/8 stimulation. To explore the influence of IFN-α and pDCs on B-cell functions in vivo, studies in non-human primates that closely resemble humans in terms of TLR expression on different subsets of immune cells are valuable. Here, we performed a side-by side comparison of the response pattern between human and rhesus macaque B cells and pDCs in vitro to well-defined TLR ligands and tested whether IFN-α enhanced B-cell function comparably. We found that both human and rhesus B cells proliferated while pDCs from both species produced high levels of IFN-α in response to ligands targeting TLR7/8 and TLR9. Both human and rhesus B-cell proliferation to TLR7/8 ligand and CpG class C was significantly increased in the presence of IFN-α. Although both human and rhesus B cells produced IgM upon stimulation, only human B cells acquired high expression of CD27 associated with plasmablast formation. Instead, rhesus B-cell differentiation and IgM levels correlated to down-regulation of CD20. These data suggest that the response pattern of human and rhesus B cells and pDCs to TLR7/8 and TLR9 is similar, although some differences in the cell surface phenotype of the differentiating cells exist. A more thorough understanding of potential similarities and differences between human and rhesus cells and their response to potential vaccine components will provide important information for translating non-human primate studies into human trials. 相似文献

IFN-α expression and antiviral effects are subtype and cell type specific in the cardiac response to viral infection 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Lianna Li 《Virology》2010,396(1):59-68
The interferon-β (IFN-β) response is critical for protection against viral myocarditis in several mouse models, and IFN-α or -β treatment is beneficial against human viral myocarditis. The IFN-β response in cardiac myocytes and cardiac fibroblasts forms an integrated network for organ protection; however, the different IFN-α subtypes have not been studied in cardiac cells. We developed a quantitative RT-PCR assay that distinguishes between 13 highly conserved IFN-α subtypes and found that reovirus T3D induces five IFN-α subtypes in primary cardiac myocyte and fibroblast cultures: IFN-α1, -α2, -α4, -α5, and -α8/6. Murine IFN-α1, -α2, -α4, or -α5 treatment induced IRF7 and ISG56 and inhibited reovirus T3D replication in both cell types. This first investigation of IFN-α subtypes in cardiac cells for any virus demonstrates that IFN-α is induced in cardiac cells, that it is both subtype and cell type specific, and that it is likely important in the antiviral cardiac response. 相似文献

Age-associated decline in IL-2 and IL-12 induction of LAK cell activity of human PBMC samples 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Previously we reported that young and elderly natural killer (NK) cell activity against the standard NK sensitive K562 cell line can be augmented to the same degree by IL-2 and IFN-. We have extended these studies to include IL-12. Similar to IL-2 and IFN-, IL-12 can enhance NK cytotoxicity to the same degree in both young and elderly samples over a wide range of doses and incubation times when K562 cells are used as targets. However, in contrast to our findings with the NK system, we have observed that induction of lymphokine activated killer (LAK) cell activity, as defined by the ability of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) samples to lyse the normally NK resistant Daudi cell line, was significantly decreased in the elderly samples compared to young samples. Comparable age-associated differences were observed in LAK activity after induction with IL-2, IL-12, and IFN- at varying doses and incubation times. We hypothesize an age-associated deficiency either in the mechanism of LAK induction or in target cell recognition. 相似文献

Interferon-α (IFN-α), a cytokine with marked therapeutic activity in transplantable tumor models, has been identified as powerful angiogenesis inhibitor. The effects of IFN-α on the vasculature have been mainly attributed to inhibition of basic fibroblast growth factor production by tumor cells or downregulation of IL-8 and vascular endothelial growth factor gene expression. Moreover, IFN-α has direct effects on endothelial cells (EC), including impairment of their proliferation and migration. The gene expression profile induced by IFN-α in EC has recently been defined, and it was found that several genes encoding negative regulators of angiogenesis are upmodulated, thus providing a potential amplification mechanism for this biological activity. The anti-angiogenic effects of IFN-α appear to be associated with increased hypoxia and ischemic necrosis in subcutaneous xenograft models, whereas in transgenic mouse models, IFN-α may simultaneously interfere with both blood vessels and tumor cell proliferation, leading to regression of tumors without necrosis. The consequences of IFN-α therapy on the invasive and metastatic behavior of tumor cells are currently unknown. Finally, as effective anti-angiogenic therapy with IFN-α demands sustained localized production of this cytokine, innovative strategies of targeted delivery of the IFN-α gene into tumors are discussed. 相似文献

We have recently shown that human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) tumour lines express high-affinity IL-4 receptors. Binding of IL-4 to RCC cells induced a growth inhibition in the range of 20 68%. To enhance the growth inhibitory effect of IL-4. we have tested the effects of two additional cytokines capable of directly affecting tumour cell growth. IFN-γ caused a significant inhibition of RCC tumour cell growth (up to 70%) in a dose-dependent manner, whereas the effect of TNF-α was more limited (0 20% inhibition). The addition of IL-4 to IFN-γ on RCC cells sensitive to lL-4 induced a greater inhibition of cell growth than that seen with each cytokine alone. IL-4 and IFN-γ rendered RCC cells more responsive to the inhibitory effect mediated by TNF-α, The combination of TNF-Q with IL-4 and IFN-γ induced an optimal growth inhibition (up lo 90 98%) of RCC cells. In addition to a direct anti-proliferative effect, we have demonstrated that these cytokines can also enhance the expression of MHC antigens on the surface of RCC tumour cell lines which may render the cells more immunogenic, All RCC lines tested expressed class 1 antigens, but not class II antigens. IFN-γ induced class II expression and up-regulated the expression of class I antigens on RCC cells. Class II antigen expression was detectable following 48 h incubation, and greater after 72 h with IFN-7. lL-4 minimally affected class I expression, whereas TNF-(v up-regulated class I antigen expression. IL-4 or TNF-α did not induce class II expression. The combination of The three cytokines slightly augmented the up-regulation of class I and class II antigens observed with IFN-γ alone. These observations confirm the direct interaction of IL-4, IFN-γ and TNF-a with RCC tumour cells. both at the level of growth regulation and MHC antigen expression, and suggest a therapeutic potential of the combination of the three cytokines for renal ceil carcinoma. 相似文献

Patients with active SLE often have an ongoing production of IFN-α. We therefore searched for an endogenous IFN-α-inducing factor (IIF) in SLE patients and found that their sera frequently induced production of IFN-α in cultures of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from healthy blood donors, especially when the PBMC were costimulated with the cytokines IFN-α2b and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). The phenotype of the IFN-α-producing cells (IPC) as determined by flow cytometry corresponded to that of the natural IPC, resembling immature dendritic cells. The IIF activity in SLE sera was sometimes as high as that of a virus and was present especially in patients with active disease and with measurable IFN-α levels in serum. The IIF had an apparent molecular weight of 300–1000 kD and appeared to consist of both immunoglobulin and DNA, possibly being immune complexes. This endogenous IFN-α inducer may be of pathogenic significance, since a reported occasional adverse effect of IFN-α therapy in patients with non-autoimmune disorders is development of anti-dsDNA antibodies and SLE. 相似文献

Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) has been recognized as an important respiratory pathogen. Due to its relatively recent discovery, only limited information is available on the relationship between hMPV and type I interferons (IFN). This study was designed to determine whether in vitro hMPV is sensitive to the antiviral activity of IFN-β, leukocyte IFN-α, and several IFN-α subtypes in a human Hep-2 cell line. The results showed that 50% inhibitory concentration values against hMPV for the various type I IFN preparations were significantly higher than those against the IFN-sensitive vesicular stomatitis virus, and some IFN-α subtypes appeared to be more active against hMPV than others, with IFN-α subtypes 5, 6, 8, and 10 being the most potent, and IFN-α2, 17, and 21 the least potent. The results show that hMPV grown in Hep-2 is partially resistant to the antiviral activity of type I IFNs. Additional studies are required to understand whether and to what extent the relatively low sensitivity of hMPV to IFNs influences the clinical outcomes of infected individuals. 相似文献

IFN-α is known to play a critical role in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but the mechanisms remain unclear. We previously showed that within weeks, exposure to IFN-α in vivo induces lupus in pre-autoimmune lupus-prone NZB×NZW F1 (NZB/W) but not in BALB/c mice. In the current study, we show that in vivo expression of IFN-α induces sustained B-cell proliferation in both BALB/c and NZB/W mice. In NZB/W but not BALB/c mice, B-cell proliferation was accompanied by a rapid and unabated production of autoantibody-secreting cells (ASCs) in secondary lymphoid organs, suggesting that a B-cell checkpoint is altered in the autoimmune background. The majority (>95%) of ASCs elicited in IFN-α-treated NZB/W mice were short-lived and occurred without the induction of long-lived plasma cells. A short course of cyclophosphamide caused a sharp drop in IFN-α-elicited short-lived plasma cells, but the levels recovered within days following termination of treatment. Thus, our work provides new insights into effectiveness and limitations of the current SLE therapies. 相似文献

Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is the etiological agent of paracoccidioidomycosis, a deep mycosis endemic in Latin America. Studies to elucidate the host-parasite relationship in this mycosis have demonstrated that non-activated phagocytes fail to kill the etiologic agent. Investigations of human monocytes have shown that the lack of fungicidal activity is partially associated with the capacity of a high-virulence strain to induce PGE(2) release by these cells. This eicosanoid inhibits production of TNF-α, the cytokine involved in cell activation for release of H(2)O(2), the fungicidal metabolite. Cell priming with IFN-γ was shown to partially reverse this inhibitory effect. In this study, we asked whether monocyte challenge with a low-virulence strain of this fungus would also result in PGE(2) release and consequently inhibition of antifungal activities. We also assessed whether PGE(2,) besides inhibiting production of TNF-α, a monocyte-activating cytokine, also affects IL-10. The latter, in contrast to TNF-α is a monocyte-suppressing cytokine. Finally, we evaluated whether priming cells with other cytokines, namely TNF-α and GM-CSF, could be more effective than IFN-γ in reversing the PGE(2) inhibitory effect. The results revealed that the less virulent P. brasiliensis strain also induces human monocytes to release PGE(2). However, the inhibitory effect of PGE(2) was less pronounced when cells were challenged with this strain than with the more virulent one. It was also demonstrated that PGE(2), while inhibits TNF-α production, tends to increase IL-10 levels. Priming with GM-CSF or TNF-α was more effective than IFN-γ in compensating for the inhibitory PGE(2) effect, since these cytokines induce cells to produce higher H(2)O(2) and TNF-α levels. 相似文献
