Interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and perforin (pfp) are important effector mechanisms used by CD8 T cells to clear virus-infected cells. In this study, we used IFN-γ/pfp double knockout mice to address if these two effector molecules play redundant roles in the control of acute infection with murine gammaherpesvirus-68 (MHV-68) in BALB/C mice. Perforin knockout (KO) mice and wild-type mice cleared infectious virus from the lungs, even following high-dose infection. However, the IFN-γ KO and IFN-γ/pfp double knockout (DKO) groups had higher virus titers in the lungs at day 10 post-infection, and both groups had higher mortality rates. In IFN-γ/pfp DKO mice, the virus titer and mortality rate were significant higher than in IFN-γ KO mice, indicating a role for perforin in protection from disease. WT mice given IFN-γ blocking antibody also showed significantly higher viral titers. In contrast, IFN-γ KO mice on a C57BL/6 background controlled respiratory infection comparably to wild-type mice. These data show that perforin plays a redundant role in the control of virus replication, but IFN-γ plays an essential role in BALB/C mice infected with MHV-68. We conclude that there is a marked strain-dependent difference in the effector mechanisms needed to control acute MHV-68 infection between C57BL/6 and BALB/C mice. In addition we show that immune therapy that re-establishes viral control after spontaneous reactivation in CD4-deficient mice depends upon perforin in C57BL/6 mice but IFN-γ in BALB/C mice. 相似文献

Female NZB/W F1 mice develop an autoimmune disease similar to human systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and ultimately die of glomerulonephritis. Starting at the age of 16 weeks NZB/W F1 mice were treated for a period of 19 weeks with soluble interferon-γ receptor (sIFN-γR), anti-IFN-γ monoclonal antibody (mAb) or IFN-γ. All mice treated with sIFN-γR or anti-IFN-γ mAb were alive 4 weeks after the treatment was discontinued, whereas 50% of mice died in the placebo groups and 78% of the mice died in the IFN-γ-treated group. Histologically, there was severe membrano-proliferative glomerulonephritis in IFN-γ- and placebo-treated mice, and minimal or no mesangioproliferative disease in mice receiving sIFN-γR or anti-IFN-γ mAb. The renal mononuclear infiltrate (T lymphocytes and monocytes), expression of major histocompatibility complex class II antigen and glomerular immunoglobulin and complement deposition were reduced in those mice. These data suggest that an IFN-γ inhibitor, such as the soluble IFN-γR, can be used for SLE therapy in the early stages of the disease. 相似文献

Monocytes express IL-1 and IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS). IL-1 self-induction contributes to the increase in IL-1 following LPS stimulation. LPS-stimulated IL-1 and IL-1Ra production are inhibited by glucocorticoids. In the present work we examined the regulation of IL-1Ra by Th1 cytokine IFN-γ, Th2 cytokine IL-4, glucocorticoids and IL-1 in human monocytes. We demonstrate that IL-1 contributes to LPS-induced IL-1Ra expression as shown by IL-1 blockade in LPS-stimulated monocytes using a specific anti-IL-1β antibody or recombinant IL-1Ra. Glucocorticoids inhibited IL-1β-stimulated IL-1Ra mRNA expression and protein production. Glucocorticoids inhibited both IL-1-mediated and non-mediated LPS stimulation of IL-1Ra expression. Both IFN-γ and IL-4 reversed the inhibitory effect of glucocorticoids on IL-1Ra expression and secretion. The effect of IFN-γ was blocked by pretreatment of monocytes with an anti-IL-1β blocking antibody, whereas the effect of IL-4 could not be blocked, demonstrating that IFN-γ acts through a mechanism dependent on endogenous IL-1 production, whereas IL-4 acts through an IL-1-independent one. Consistent with this finding, IFN-γ (but not IL-4) failed to reverse the inhibitory effect of glucocorticoids when stimulated by IL-1, and only IL-4 combined with IL-1 showed synergism resulting in an increase in IL-1Ra production. The differential regulation and involvement of IL-1 in the expression of IL-1Ra by IFN-γ, IL-4 and glucocorticoids sets the level of monocyte responsiveness during the Th1 or Th2 responses. 相似文献

Patients with complete IFN-γR deficiency are unable to respond to IFN-γ and have impaired Th1-immunity and recurrent, severe infections with weakly virulent Mycobacteria. Since IFN-α and IFN-γ share signalling pathways, treatment with IFN-α has been proposed in complete IFN-γR deficiency. We stimulated cells from healthy controls and from a patient lacking IFN-γR1 with IFN-α and IFN-γ, to establish whether IFN-α would substitute for IFN-γ effects. IFN-α induced STAT1 phosphorylation in monocytes of the IFN-γR1(-/-) patient, but did not prime for LPS-induced IL-12p70, IL-12p40, IL-23 or TNF production. In control cells, IFN-α inhibited the priming effect of IFN-γ on LPS-induced pro-inflammatory cytokine release. Finally, IFN-γ but not IFN-α induced killing of M. smegmatis in cultured macrophages. In conclusion, no evidence was found to support the use of IFN-α in IFN-γR-deficient patients as intervention against mycobacterial infection; on the contrary, treatment of individuals with IFN-α may even adversely affect host defence against Mycobacteria. 相似文献

Increased levels of interferon-γ (IFN-γ) are routinely observed in the respiratory tract following influenza virus infection, yet its potential role remains unclear. We now demonstrate that influenza-induced IFN-γ restricts protective innate lymphoid cell group II (ILC2) function in the lung following challenge with the pandemic H1N1 A/CA/04/2009 (CA04) influenza virus. Specifically, IFN-γ deficiency resulted in enhanced ILC2 activity, characterized by increased production of interleukin (IL)-5 and amphiregulin, and improved tissue integrity, yet no change in ILC2 numbers, viral load or clearance. We further found that IFN-γ-deficient mice, as well as wild-type animals treated with neutralizing anti-IFN-γ antibody, exhibited decreased susceptibility to lethal infection with H1N1 CA04 influenza virus, and moreover that survival was dependent on the presence of IL-5. The beneficial effects of IFN-γ neutralization were not observed in ILC2-deficient animals. These data support the novel concept that IFN-γ can have a detrimental role in the pathogenesis of influenza through a restriction in ILC2 activity. Thus, regulation of ILC2 activity is a potential target for post-infection therapy of influenza. 相似文献

Trypsin treatment of adherent human monocytes greatly reduced or eliminated the ability of these cells to support dengue virus replication. However, addition of dilute (nonneutralizing) antibody to the inoculum and the culture medium resulted in viral yields similar to those from monocytes not treated with trypsin. These results suggested that viral entry was facilitated by phagocytosis of immune complexes via Fc receptors on the monocytes. This concept was tested by (i) pretreating monocytes with aggregated gamma globulin, which resulted in a 40-fold reduction of viral yields after infection with dilute antibody-virus complexes and (ii) forming an immune complex with virus, antivirus F(ab')2 fragments, and rabbit anti-human Fab. Whereas F(ab')2 fragments alone would not enhance virus replication in trypsin-treated monocytes, the immune complex containing a rabbit Fc piece did increase the yield of dengue virus. These results suggest that dengue virus can infect a cultured monocyte in two ways: (i) through a viral receptor that is trypsin sensitive or (ii) through an Fc receptor that is not trypsin sensitive. 相似文献

In several models of inflammation, including collagen-induced arthritis (CIA), the disease-promoting effect of IL-12 has been attributed to its well-known ability to produce IFN-γ. However, IFN-γ receptor knockout (IFN-γ R KO) mice of the DBA/1 strain have been reported to be more susceptible to CIA than corresponding wild-type mice, indicating the existence of an IFN-γ-mediated protective pathway in this model. In the present study the development of CIA was found to be completely prevented by pretreatment with a neutralizing anti-IL-12 antibody, not only in wild-type, but significantly also in IFN-γ R KO mice. In both strains of mice, the protective effect of anti-IL-12 was associated with lower production of anti-collagen type II antibodies. In vivo stimulation with anti-CD3 antibody in arthritic IFN-γ R KO mice resulted in production of higher levels of circulating IFN-γ, TNF and IL-2 than in corresponding control mice that had not received the arthritis-inducing immunization. This was not the case in arthritis-developing wild-type mice. Furthermore, the protective effect of anti-IL-12 antibody in mutant, but not in wild-type mice, was associated with lower circulating IFN-γ, TNF and IL-2 and higher IL-4 and IL-5 cytokine levels following an anti-CD3 challenge. The data indicate that IL-12 promotes the development of arthritis independently of its ability to induce or favor production of IFN-γ. In fact, any IFN-γ produced in the course of the disease process rather exerts a protective effect. Furthermore, our study suggests that, in the absence of a functional IFN-γ system, endogenous IL-12 exerts its disease-promoting effect by favoring production of other Th1-associated cytokines (IL-2 and TNF), by inhibiting development of IL-4- and IL-5-producing T cells and by stimulating production of anti-collagen autoantibodies. 相似文献

BackgroundWe recently identified a novel alternatively spliced isoform of human programmed cell death 1 (PD-1), named Δ42PD1, which contains a 42-base-pair in-frame deletion compared with the full-length PD-1. Δ42PD1 is likely constitutively expressed on human monocytes and down-regulated in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). The mechanism underlying the regulation of Δ42PD-1 expression in monocytes remains unknown.MethodsBy flow cytometry, we investigated the effect of Interferon-gamma (INF-γ) on the expression of Δ42PD1 in primary human monocytes as well as monocytic cell lines THP-1 and U937 cells. In addition, signaling pathway inhibitors and Δ42PD1-specific blocking antibody were used to explore the pathway involved in INF-γ-induced Δ42PD1 upregulation, and to elucidate the relationship between Δ42PD1 and TNF-α or IL-6 production by INF-γ primed monocytes in response to pre-fixed E. coli. Furthermore, we assessed T-cell proliferation, activation and cytokine production as enriched CD4+ T cells were co-cultured with THP-1 or U937 cells, with or without Δ42PD1-blocking antibody.ResultsTreatment of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) with IFN-γ resulted in an approximately 4-fold increase in the expression of Δ42PD1 on monocytes. Similarly, IFN-γ upregulates Δ42PD1 expression on human monocytic cell lines THP-1 and U937, in a time- and dose-dependent manner. IFN-γ-induced Δ42PD1 upregulation was abolished by JAK inhibitors Ruxolitinib and Tasocitinib, PI3K inhibitor LY294002, and AKT inhibitor MK-2206, respectively, but not by STAT1 inhibitor and MAPK signaling pathway inhibitors. JAK, PI3K-AKT, and MAPK signaling inhibitors abolished effectively the production of TNF-α and IL-6 in INF-γ-primed monocytes in response to pre-fixed E. coli. In contrast, Δ42PD1-specific blocking antibody did not affect the IFN-γ-induced priming effect. Furthermore, the MFI ratio of Δ42PD1 to full-length PD-1 (PD-1 Δ/F ratio) was significantly and positively correlated with TNF-α (P = 0.0289, r = 0.6038) produced by circulating CD14+ monocytes in response to pre-fixed E. coli. Notably, Δ42PD1 blockage significantly inhibited CD4+ T-cells proliferation and cytokine production in the co-culture conditions.ConclusionsWe demonstrated that IFN-γ increases Δ42PD1 expression on human monocytes via activating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway downstream of JAKs, and that the PD-1 Δ/F ratio is a potential biomarker to predict the functional state of monocytes. Notably, we revealed the Δ42PD1 play a role in T-cell regulation, providing a novel potential approach to manipulate adaptive immune response. 相似文献

The effect of interferon-γ (IFN-γ) on the ability of human monocytic cells to process exogenous (major histocompability complex class II) antigens was investigated. The processing (i.e. protein degradation) of antigens that were internalized via Fcγ receptor (FcγR) was followed for various times after treatment of cells with IFN-γ. THP-1 cells that had been treated with IFN-γ for 4 h degraded antigen, internalized as an immune complex, at an enhanced rate. After 24 h of IFN-γ treatment the rate of processing was similar to untreated cells. Unexpectedly, in cells which had been treated for 48–72 h there was a significant decrease in the rate of processing of the exogenous antigen. These effects were not due to changes in the rate of internalization of immune complex. The inhibition of the rate of processing was independent of the type of antigen, was dependent on the dose of IFN-γ, and also occurred with normal human peripheral monocytes. Analysis of the degraded peptides by high-pressure liquid chromatography indicated that some of the peptides generated in the IFN-γ-treated cells were both quantitatively and qualitatively different from the peptides generated in untreated cells. These data suggest that IFN-γ modulates the way in which antigens, internalized through Fc receptors as immune complexes, are processed. Additionally, the results imply that decreases in the rate of antigen processing may lead to more efficient antigen presentation. 相似文献

In the present study, we found that 129S1 mice are resistant to the infection with Plasmodium yoelii 17XL, which is highly virulent and causes lethal infection in various strains of mice. In contrast, IFN-γ receptor-deficient (IFN-γR(-/-)) mice on the 129S1 background were much more susceptible than 129S1 mice with intraperitoneal infection with 1?×?10(5) parasitized erythrocytes. The mortality in 129S1 and IFN-γR(-/-) mice was 11.6 and 79.4 %, respectively. Following inoculation of the parasites, both 129S1 and IFN-γR(-/-) mice showed a progressive increase in parasitemia. Growth rate of malaria parasites at the early stages of infection in the IFN-γR(-/-) mice was faster than that in 129S1 mice, and this difference in growth rate might cause the earlier death of IFN-γR(-/-) host from day 8 of infection than that of 129S1. In surviving mice of both strains, however, malaria parasites in their bloodstream began to decrease in number right after a peak of parasitemia and were not detectable by a microscopic examination during the observation period. Next, we investigated the cytokine and antibody production in 129S1 and IFN-γR(-/-) mice during infection. An analysis of cytokines showed that serum IFN-γ and IL-4 levels elevated significantly from day 1 and day 4 of infection, respectively, in both 129S1 and IFN-γR(-/-) mice when compared with the levels from the uninfected controls. Following the infection, significantly higher levels of malaria-specific IgG1 and IgG2a antibodies in the infected 129S1 mice were detected from day 15, and these elevations were coincident with the decrease of parasitemia. On the other hand, the levels of malaria-specific antibodies in IFN-γR(-/-) mice had a tendency to elevate on day 21 but did not reach statistical significance. The present data indicate that IFN-γR plays an essential role in mediating the early immune mechanisms induced by the infection of erythrocytic stages of P. yoelii 17XL parasite, leading to host survival. 相似文献

Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis is the causative agent of Johne's disease in cattle and may have implications for human health. Establishment of chronic infection by M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis depends on its subversion of host immune responses. This includes blocking the ability of infected macrophages to be activated by gamma interferon (IFN-γ) for clearance of this intracellular pathogen. To define the mechanism by which M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis subverts this critical host cell function, patterns of signal transduction to IFN-γ stimulation of uninfected and M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis-infected bovine monocytes were determined through bovine-specific peptide arrays for kinome analysis. Pathway analysis of the kinome data indicated activation of the JAK-STAT pathway, a hallmark of IFN-γ signaling, in uninfected monocytes. In contrast, IFN-γ stimulation of M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis-infected monocytes failed to induce patterns of peptide phosphorylation consistent with JAK-STAT activation. The inability of IFN-γ to induce differential phosphorylation of peptides corresponding to early JAK-STAT intermediates in infected monocytes indicates that M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis blocks responsiveness at, or near, the IFN-γ receptor. Consistent with this hypothesis, increased expression of negative regulators of the IFN-γ receptors SOCS1 and SOCS3 as well as decreased expression of IFN-γ receptor chains 1 and 2 is observed in M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis-infected monocytes. These patterns of expression are functionally consistent with the kinome data and offer a mechanistic explanation for this critical M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis behavior. Understanding this mechanism may contribute to the rational design of more effective vaccines and/or therapeutics for Johne's disease. 相似文献

Microvascular plasma leakage is the hallmark of dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome. The precise molecular mechanisms leading to microvascular leakage are yet to be determined, but dengue virus (DENV) infection and consequent endothelial cell death has been suggested as its major cause. However, the extent of endothelial cell permissiveness to DENV infection and the magnitude of cell death following DENV infection are controversial. To clarify this issue, we analyzed the kinetics and consequences of DENV infection of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) using a novel molecularly cloned DENV2‐16681 virus. Viral replication was detected as early as 24 hr post‐infection by RT‐PCR and plaque assays. However, merely 2% of HUVEC were DENV antigen‐positive even after 96 hr of infection as measured by the FACS indirect immunofluorescence assays. Unlike monocytes/macrophages, HUVEC did not support antibody dependent enhancement of dengue viral infection due to a lack of FcγRI and FcγRII. Furthermore, DENV infection did not increase HUVEC apoptosis as compared to mock‐infected cells. Because in vitro only a small percentage of endothelial cells were productively infected in vitro with no significant apoptosis occurring in either infected or bystander cells, it would be important to re‐examine whether direct dengue viral infection of endothelium is the major cause of the extensive vascular leakage observed in patients with dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome.

The aim of this study was to further assess the role of pooled human immunoglobulin (PHIG) on cytokine production from PBMC stimulated with a bacterial superantigen. Human PBMC were cultured with Streptococcus pyrogenic exotoxin A (SPE-A) with or without PHIG and several proinflammatory cytokine levels of culture supernatants were measured. Serum cytokine levels of KD patients before and after PHIG therapy were also examined. PHIG greatly reduced the production of IL-12, interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) and other cytokines from SPE-A-stimulated PBMC, while exogenous IL-12, but neither IL-1 nor tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), restored IFN-γ production inhibited by PHIG. Although PHIG partially adsorbed SPE-A, its inhibitory effect on cytokine production was not played by anti-SPE-A antibody. Although purified CD4+ T cells cultured with human HLA-DR-transfected mouse L cells and SPE-A could not effectively produce IFN-γ, they produced large amounts of IFN-γ if exogenous IL-12 was introduced. KD patients in the acute phase had higher levels of serum IFN-γ than did controls and patients with bacterial infection. Although IL-12 levels of children with or without KD were not significantly different, IL-12 levels of children were much higher than those of adults. However, serum levels of IL-12 of KD patients were transiently but significantly decreased by PHIG therapy and IFN-γ amounts subsequently reverted to basal levels thereafter. These findings indicate that PHIG inhibits IL-12 production of SPE-A-activated monocytes and thereby decreases IFN-γ synthesis by T cells and suggest that inhibition of IL-12 and IFN-γ production is an important part of the mechanisms underlying PHIG therapy on KD. 相似文献

Human monocytes are susceptible to dengue virus (DV) infection through an FcR-dependent pathway known as antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE). In this study, infection enhancement was observed when purified monocytes were infected with DV serotypes in the presence of serially diluted immune serum antibodies. Analyzing binding of the DV-antibody immune complexes to monocytes by quantifying the amount of viruses attached to monocytes, we found that binding did not correlate with the input amount of antibodies; rather, it peaked at suboptimal antibody concentrations, correlating with the observed infection enhancement. These results suggested that immune complexes are involved in hindering DV from binding to FcR-bearing cells; when such a protective feature is weakened, enhancement of viral attachment and ADE are observed. Further, increased cytokine production (TNF-alpha and IFN-alpha), and costimulatory marker expression (CD86 and CD40), were found to be associated with infection enhancement, suggesting a pathological role of ADE-affected monocytes in dengue hemorrhagic diseases. 相似文献
