Adenovirus (Ad) gene therapy has been proposed as a drug-delivery system for the targeted administration of protein-based therapies, including growth factors and biological response modifiers. However, inflammation associated with Ad transduction has raised concern about its safety and efficacy in acute inflammatory diseases. In the present report, intratracheal and i.v. administration of a first-generation adenoviral recombinant (E1,E3 deleted) either containing an empty cassette or expressing the anti-inflammatory cytokines viral or human IL-10 (IL-10) was administered to mice subjected to zymosan-induced multisystem organ failure or to acute necrotizing pancreatitis. Pretreatment of mice with the intratracheal instillation of Ad expressing human IL-10 or viral IL-10 reduced weight loss, attenuated the proinflammatory cytokine response, and reduced mortality in the zymosan-induced model, whereas pretreatment with a control adenoviral recombinant did not significantly exacerbate the response. Pretreatment of mice with pancreatitis using adenoviral vectors expressing IL-10 significantly reduced the degree of pancreatic and liver injury and liver inflammation when administered systemically, but not intratracheally. We conclude that adenoviral vectors can be administered prophylactically in acute inflammatory syndromes, and expression of the anti-inflammatory protein IL-10 can be used to suppress the underlying inflammatory process. 相似文献

CD11c+ dendritic cells (DCs) are APCs that link innate and adaptive immunity. Although DCs are lost from spleen and lymph nodes in sepsis, their role in outcome remains unclear. Transgenic mice (B6.FVB-Tg(.Itgax-DTR/EGFP.57)Lan/J) expressing the diphtheria toxin (DT) receptor on the CD11c promoter (DCKO mice) received 4 ng/kg DT, which resulted in depletion of 88-95% of mature myeloid and lymphoid DCs, with less depletion (75%) of plasmacytoid DCs. Pretreatment of DCKO mice with DT resulted in reduced survival in sepsis compared with saline-pretreated DCKO mice (0 vs 54%; p < 0.05) or DT-treated wild-type littermates (0 vs 54%; p < 0.05). This increased mortality was not associated with either increased bacteremia or plasma cytokine concentrations. Intravenous injection of 10(7) wild-type DCs improved survival in DCKO mice (42 vs 0%; p = 0.05). These data confirm that DCs are essential in the septic response and suggest that strategies to maintain DC numbers or function may improve outcome. 相似文献

PG added to cell culture profoundly affect the in vitro maturation and function of monocyte-derived dendritic cells (MDC). Because unstimulated monocytes express cyclooxygenase (COX)-1, and COX-2 when activated, we examined whether MDC express these enzymes and produce prostanoids that autoregulate maturation and IL-12 production. Immature MDC (I-MDC) and mature MDC express COX-1, but, unlike monocytes, both MDC populations constitutively express COX-2. However, COX-2 regulation in both MDC populations differs from monocytes, as IL-4 does not suppress enzyme expression. COX-2 is functional in MDC as a specific inhibitor, NS-398, significantly reduces PGE(2) production. I-MDC undergoing maturation with soluble CD40 ligand (sCD40L) increase PGE(2) synthesis, but prostanoid synthesis is switched to COX-1. However, with IFN-gamma present, sCD40L-stimulated PG metabolism is redirected to COX-2, and PGE(2) synthesis increases severalfold. Endogenous PG production by MDC does not regulate CD40, CD80, CD86, or HLA DR expression; however, it does promote MDC maturation, as NS-398 significantly reduces CD83 expression in I-MDC matured with sCD40L/IFN-gamma. PG produced through COX-2 also autoregulate IL-12, but the effects are dependent on the MDC maturation state. Blocking COX-2 reduces I-MDC secretion of IL-12p40, whereas it increases IL-12p40 and p70 production by maturing MDC. COX-2-mediated PG production impacts MDC function as maturing these cells in the presence of NS-398 yields MDC that stimulate significantly more IFN-gamma in an allogeneic mixed lymphocyte response than MDC matured without this inhibitor. These studies demonstrate that MDC express both COX isoforms constitutively and produce prostanoids, which autoregulate their maturation and function. 相似文献

A complete understanding of the role for endogenously produced interleukin-1 (IL-1), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), and IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) in the acute phase response to inflammation remains unknown. In the present studies, knockout mice lacking either a functional IL-1 type I receptor (IL-1RI(-/-)), a TNF type I receptor (TNFR-I(-/-)), or both IL-1 type I and TNF type I receptors (IL-1RI(-/-)/TNFR-I(-/-)) received a turpentine abscess. Additional mice deficient in IL-1ra protein (IL-1ra(-/-)) or overexpressing IL-1ra protein (IL-1ra(tg)) were similarly treated. After a turpentine abscess, IL-1 receptor knockout mice exhibited an attenuated inflammatory response compared with wild-type or animals lacking a functional TNFR-I. Mice overexpressing IL-1ra also had an attenuated hepatic acute phase protein response, whereas IL-1ra knockout mice had a significantly greater hepatic acute phase response. We conclude that the inflammatory response to a turpentine abscess is the result of a balance between IL-1ra expression and IL-1 binding to its type I receptor. Endogenously produced IL-1ra plays a central role in mitigating the magnitude of the IL-1-mediated inflammatory response and, ultimately, the outcome to a turpentine abscess. 相似文献

Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and Fas ligand (FasL) are trimeric proteins that induce apoptosis through similar caspase-dependent pathways. Hepatocytes are particularly sensitive to inflammation-induced programmed cell death, although the contribution of TNF-alpha and/or FasL to this injury response is still unclear. Here, we report that D-galactosamine and lipopolysaccharide-induced liver injury in C57BL/6 mice is associated with increased hepatic expression of both TNF-alpha and FasL mRNA. Pretreatment of mice with a TNF-binding protein improved survival, reduced plasma aspartate aminotransferase concentrations, and attenuated the apoptotic liver injury, as determined histologically and by in situ 3' OH end labeling of fragmented nuclear DNA. In contrast, pretreatment of mice with a murine-soluble Fas fusion protein (Fasfp) had only minimal effect on survival, and apoptotic liver injury was either unaffected or exacerbated depending on the dose of Fasfp employed. Similarly, mice with a spontaneous mutation in FasL (B6Smn.C3H-Fasl(gld) derived from C57BL/6) were equally sensitive to D-galactosamine/lipopolysaccharide-induced shock. We conclude that the shock and apoptotic liver injury after D-galactosamine/lipopolysaccharide treatment are due primarily to TNF-alpha release, whereas increased FasL expression appears to contribute little to the mortality and hepatic injury. 相似文献

Peritoneal macrophages from mice bearing a transplantable methylcholanthrene-induced sarcoma produced progressively less IL 1 as tumor burden increased. The loss of activity was not explained by the production of any inhibitor of the mouse thymocyte comitogen bioassay. Immune precipitation with a polyclonal antibody confirmed the decline in IL 1 appearance. Although tumor-bearing animals lost approximately 17% of their carcass mass, the reduced production of IL 1 was not satisfactorily explained by coexistent malnutrition, since similarly depleted non-tumor-bearing mice were capable of producing IL 1. In addition to an altered IL 1 production by macrophages of tumor-bearing mice, SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and autoradiography revealed that the pattern of secretory protein synthesis from LPS-stimulated and unstimulated peritoneal macrophages differed between tumor-bearing and control animals. Administration of LPS to tumor-bearing mice early after tumor transplantation resulted in reduced tumor growth and prevented the down-regulation of in vitro IL 1 production by peritoneal macrophages. These findings demonstrate a specific defect in IL 1 production associated with increasing tumor burden. Further studies are required to determine whether this defect in IL 1 synthesis contributes to the increased tumor growth. 相似文献
