The increased release of prostaglandin E2 by Kupffer cells from burned guinea pigs

Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is a very important immunosuppressive substance that is synthesized and released by all macrophages including Kupffer cells (KCs). In this study the changes of PGE2 released by KCs were evaluated in a burned guinea pig model. Prostaglandin E2 was released by KCs from burned guinea pigs at a consistently and significantly high level when stimulated with endotoxin. On postburn day 8, KCs that were cocultured with hepatocytes released significantly less PGE2. There was also a significant decrease in antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity on postburn day 1. Kupffer cells can mediate immune suppression in burn injury by a prolonged increased production of PGE2 that has immunosuppressive effects on other cells and by a decreased cytotoxic effect soon after burn injury.     

Glycyrrhizin prevents liver injury by inhibition of high-mobility group box 1 production by Kupffer cells after ischemia-reperfusion in rats

High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) acts as an early mediator of inflammation and organ damage in hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Glycyrrhizin is a natural anti-inflammatory and antiviral triterpene in clinical use. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of glycyrrhizin on liver injury caused by I/R and production of HMGB1 by Kupffer cells in rats. In the first test period, rats were given saline or glycyrrhizin 20 min before segmental hepatic warm I/R. Serum alanine aminotransferase and HMGB1 levels and hepatic histopathological findings were evaluated after I/R. Furthermore, expression of HMGB1 in the liver was assessed by immunohistochemical staining after I/R. Kupffer cells were isolated by collagenase digestion and differential centrifugation, and production of HMGB1 was assessed. In another set of experiments, the effect of inhibition of Kupffer cells by injection of liposome-entrapped dichloromethylene diphosphonate (lipo-MDP) on liver injury and expression of HMGB1 were investigated after I/R. Liver injury was prevented in the glycyrrhizin group compared with the control group. Furthermore, serum HMGB1 levels were also significantly blunted in the glycyrrhizin group compared with the control group. Cells expressing HMGB1 were detected in the hepatic sinusoid by immunohistochemistry and recognized morphologically as Kupffer cells. Furthermore, the expression of HMGB1 was reduced in the glycyrrhizin group compared with the control group. Production of HMGB1 was reduced in Kupffer cells isolated from the glycyrrhizin group compared with the control group. It is noteworthy that treatment with lipo-MDP significantly blunted serum HMGB1 levels and prevented liver injury after I/R. These results suggest that glycyrrhizin has the therapeutic potential to prevent warm I/R-induced injury during hepato-biliary surgery.     

Differential effect of anti-TNF-alpha antibody on proinflammatory cytokine release by Kupffer cells following liver ischemia and reperfusion.

To study the role of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) for induction of the proinflammatory cytokine cascade after liver ischemia and reperfusion (I/R), rats were injected intraperitoneally with anti-TNF-alpha monoclonal antibodies (mAb) or placebo (IgG1) 30 min prior to global hepatic ischemia. Blood levels of TNF-alpha, interleukin (IL)-1alpha and -6 were determined. In addition, Kupffer cells (KC) were harvested after 60 min of reperfusion and spontaneous cytokine release was measured. Sham-operated animals were used as controls. Levels of proinflammatory cytokines in serum and KC supernatants were detected using specific bioassays and ELISA. Liver I/R resulted in increased (p < .01) serum levels of TNF-alpha, IL-1alpha, and IL-6, which was associated with an enhanced (p < .05) release of these cytokines by KC. In vivo pretreatment with anti-TNF-alpha mAb led to complete neutralization of TNF-alpha serum levels and decreased (p < .01) IL-6 levels (-62%). Moreover, anti-TNF-alpha mAb markedly (p < .05) decreased the release of TNF-alpha (-69%) and IL-6 (-56%) by KC, while IL-1alpha was not affected. These data indicate that TNF-alpha produced early after liver I/R triggers both its own secretion as well as IL-6 release by KC during reperfusion while the release of IL-1alpha occurs independent from TNF-alpha.     

Activated neutrophils induce nitric oxide production in Kupffer cells

Neutrophils (PMN) are proposed to contribute to hepatic dysfunction during sepsis. Transmigrating PMN have been demonstrated to adhere to and injure parenchymal cells (hepatocytes); however, the effect of sepsis-activated PMN on hepatic macrophages or Kupffer cells (KC) is poorly characterized. We hypothesize that PMN influence KC inflammatory mediator production, including nitric oxide. Rodent KC were co-cultured with PMN obtained from controls (Norm-PMN) or endotoxemic rats [lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-PMN] for 18 h. After an 18-h incubation, supernatants and cell lysates of the KC were analyzed for nitric oxide (NO) production. Co-cultures with LPS-PMN/KC demonstrated significantly increased production of nitrite and up-regulation of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) protein compared to KC alone or Norm-PMN/KC co-cultures. Immunohistochemistry revealed preferential iNOS protein staining in the cytoplasm of KC cultured with LPS-PMN compared to controls. Nitrite production in co-cultures of KC and LPS-PMN where cell contact was inhibited by a cell impermeable but diffusable membrane was significantly reduced. These data provide evidence that KC can be stimulated directly by activated PMN for production of NO. Further, they suggest another mechanism by which PMN modulate hepatic function during sepsis.     

NMDA受体过度激活对严重创伤大鼠血清炎性细胞因子水平的影响

摘要：目的 观察N-甲基-D-天冬氨酸（N-methyl-D-aspartate， NMDA）受体的过度激活对大鼠严重创伤血清炎性细胞因子水平中的影响，为探索从中枢的某一环节着手，来抑制严重创伤后的炎性反应失调提供理论依据。方法 以30% TBSA Ⅲ度烧伤为严重创伤模型，利用ELISA方法检测激活NMDA受体对血清炎性细胞因子TNF-α、IL－1β、IL6水平的影响；通过膜片钳技术检测严重创伤能否导致大鼠神经元NMDA受体的过度开放；再观察阻断NMDA受体能否抑制严重烧伤后血清炎性细胞因子TNF-α、IL－1β、IL6水平的上升。结果 ①与对照组相比，使用NMDA 0.5mg/kg激活NMDA受体，血清TNF－α，IL－1β、IL6明显升高，加大剂量（2mg/kg ）可以使血清TNF－α，IL－1β、IL6进一步升高；②在35pS电导水平的开放中，烧伤使通道开放概率增加非常显著，在100pS电导水平的开放中，开放时间常数τ1、通道开放概率增加非常显著；③腹腔注射MK-801（3mg/kg）阻断NMDA受体可以抑制烧伤后血清TNF-α、IL－1β、IL6水平的上升，加大注射剂量（5mg/kg）可以进一步抑制烧伤后血清TNF-α、IL－1β、IL6水平的上升。结论 NMDA受体是严重创伤后（烧伤）大鼠血清炎性细胞因子过度升高的重要环节。     

Spontaneous production of tumor necrosis factor alpha by Kupffer cells of MRL/lpr mice

We report that freshly isolated, unstimulated Kupffer cells (KC) from MRL/lpr female mice in short-term culture spontaneously produce high levels of TNF-alpha. TNF production was first detected in KC cultures at age 6 wk and increased with the age of the mice. Moreover, the levels of spontaneous TNF production by KC directly correlated with the age of the MRL/lpr mice. Although TNF production by KC could be induced with C. parvum in vivo or LPS in vitro in all nonautoimmune C3H/HeN, BALB/c, DBA/2, C57B16 mice, the only other strain in which spontaneous TNF production by KC was observed was MRL/++ mice greater than 10 mo old.     

Involvement of Kupffer cells in the interaction between neutrophils and sinusoidal endothelial cells in rats

During endotoxic liver injury, large numbers of neutrophils infiltrate the liver, and serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) become elevated. The object of this study was to assess the roles of TNF-alpha secreted by Kupffer cells in the interaction between neutrophils and sinusoidal endothelial cells (SECs). Rat neutrophils were perfused onto SECs that were stimulated with either TNF-alpha or supernatant from lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated Kupffer cells using an in vitro flow system. Numbers of adhered or migrated neutrophils were counted, and the effect of an antibody against intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) was studied. Compared with controls (200 +/- 21 cells/mm2), neutrophil adhesion to SECs was significantly increased by both TNF-alpha (342 +/- 26 cells/mm2; P < 0.05) and LPS-stimulated Kupffer cell supernatant (331 +/- 29 cells/mm2; P < 0.05). Anti-ICAM-1 significantly inhibited neutrophil adhesion (139 +/- 10 cells/mm2; P < 0.05) and decreased the migration rate of neutrophils on SECs treated with LPS-stimulated Kupffer cell supernatant (P < 0.05). LPS-stimulated Kupffer cells secreted TNF-alpha in an LPS dose-dependent manner, and they significantly enhanced ICAM-1 expression on SECs (P < 0.05 vs. control). In addition, dexamethasone suppressed TNF-alpha production by LPS-stimulated Kupffer cells and decreased ICAM-1 expression and neutrophil adhesion on SECs. These findings suggest that Kupffer cells are involved in neutrophil adhesion and migration in hepatic sinusoids via TNF-alpha production and induction of ICAM-1 expression on SECs during liver injury associated with endotoxemia.
