The relationships among monocyte subsets,miRNAs and inflammatory cytokines in patients with acute myocardial infarction

Background

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) causes irreversible myocardial damage and release of inflammatory mediators, including cytokines, chemokines and miRNAs. We aimed to investigate changes in the levels of cytokines (IL-6, TNF-α and IL-10), miRNAs profiles (miR-146 and miR-155) and distribution of different monocyte subsets (CD14++CD16-, CD14++CD16+, CD14+CD16++) in the acute and post-healing phases of AMI.

Biocompatibility of Hemoglobin Solutions. II. The Inflammatory Reaction of Human Monocytes and Mouse Peritoneal Macrophages

This study explored the inflammatory mechanism of toxicity of hemoglobin solutions (Hb-S). Human monocytes and mouse activated peritoneal macrophages were incubated with seven different solutions. The first four consisted of non-cross-linked bovine Hb. Of these, Hb-SI was incompletely purified of stromal phospholipids, Hb-SII was contaminated with environmental bacterial endotoxins, Hb-SIII was pure hemoglobin, and Hb-SIV was pure Hb with the addition of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and mannitol (M). The other three solutions were made of pure bovine Hb cross-linked with different agents: Hb-SV, reacted with glutaraldehyde; Hb-SVI reacted with bis-3,5-dibromosalicyl fumarate (DBSF); and Hb-SVII reacted with a ring-opened dialdehyde derivative of 5'(pyro)-phosphate of adenosine (ATP) (o-ATP). The reaction of monocytes and macrophages was studied in terms of (a) O2-derived radicals, as determined by the measurement of H2O2 and lipid peroxides; (b) complement factor C3a desArg; (c) 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha (stable metabolite of prostacyclin); and (d) TxB2 (stable metabolite of thromboxane) released into the culture supernatants. The most significant reactions were obtained with the solutions contaminated with stromal phospholipids or bacterial endotoxins. Pure Hb was less reactive. Further reduction in proinflammatory activity was achieved by the addition of oxygen radical-scavengers (SOD, CAT, and M), or by the cross-linking of Hb with DBSF or o-ATP.

Anti-high endothelial venule monoclonal antibody HECA-452 recognizes plasmacytoid T cells and delineates an ”extranodular“ compartment in the reactive lymph node

So-called plasmacytoid T cells represent a subset of monocyte related cells, which share with endothelium the CD36⁺CD11b⁻ (OKM5⁺OKM1⁻) phenotype. The reactivity of plasmacytoid T cells with rat monoclonal antibody HECA-452, highly specific for high endothelial venules, was analyzed in reactive lymph nodes. In all cases, HECA-452 not only labelled the endothelium of high endothelial venules, but also strongly reacted with singular and clustered plasmacytoid T cells. The HECA-452 positivity for high endothelial venules and plasmacytoid T cells visualized a lymph node compartment extending from the subcapsular sinus to the corticomedullary junction. This compartment surrounded the composite nodule and was designated the ”extranodular“ compartment. The cooccurrence of plasmacytoid T cells and high endothelial venules in this extranodular compartment, together with their immunophenotypical similarities, may be indicative of functional co-operations.     

肾脏固有细胞和浸润细胞在肾小管间质病变中的作用

Tubulointerstitial lesions,occurring in many kinds of renal diseases,have been found to be the predominant factor in the impairment of renal function.The severe and extensive lesions often predict a poor outcome in future.It has been tested recent years that the infiltrating inflammatory cells might play important roles in the onset and deterioration of tubulointerstitial injuries.On the other hand,the resident cells,including the tubular epithelial cells and the fibroblasts,also directly take part in tubulointerstitial inflammation and fibrosis.Researches also dispaly implicated interactions between the infiltrating cells and the resident cells,which contribute to the amplification of inflammation and the progress of fibrosis.
