The Journal of Immunology STAT-1 Mediates the Stimulatory Effect of IL-10 on CD14 Expression in Human Monocytic Cells1 Ali Akbar Rahim Rahimi,† Katrina Gee,† Sasmita Mishra,† Wilfred Lim,† and Ashok Kumar2*†‡ IL-10, an anti-inflammatory cytokine, has been shown to exhibit stimulatory functions including CD14 up-regulation on human monocytic cells. CD14-mediated signaling following LPS stimulation of monocytic cells results in the synthesis of proinflammatory cytokines. Our results show that LPS-induced CD14 expression on monocytic cells may be mediated by endogenously produced IL-10. To investigate the molecular mechanism by which IL-10 enhances CD14 expression, both human monocytes and the promyelocytic HL-60 cells were used as model systems. IL-10 induced the phosphorylation of PI3K and p42/44 ERK MAPK. By using specific inhibitors for PI3K (LY294002) and ERK MAPKs (PD98059), we demonstrate that LY294002 either alone or in conjunction with PD98059 inhibited IL-10-induced phosphorylation of STAT-1 and consequently CD14 expression. However, Downloaded from IL-10-induced STAT-3 phosphorylation remained unaffected under these conditions. Finally, STAT-1 interfering RNA inhibited IL-10-induced CD14 expression. Taken together, these results suggest that IL-10-induced CD14 up-regulation in human mono- cytic cells may be mediated by STAT-1 activation through the activation of PI3K either alone or in concert with the ERK MAPK.

Inflammasome activation leads to the release of the pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18 and to pyroptotic cell death. Over-activation of NLRP3 inflammasome has been associated with several chronic inflammatory diseases. A deep knowledge of NLRP3 inflammasome biology is required to better exploit its potential as therapeutic target and for the development of new selective drugs. To this purpose, in the past few years, several tools have been developed for the biological characterization of the multimeric inflammasome complex, the identification of the upstream signaling cascade leading to inflammasome activation, and the downstream effects triggered by NLRP3 activation.

Among the factors suspected to control PCa, incidence and progression, chemokines, and their receptors are now intensively studied. Chemokines are produced by tumor cells and also by the stromal microenvironment, both in the primary tumor site and in distant metastatic locations. The wide and differential distribution of chemokines and their receptors account for the pleiotropic actions of chemokines in PCa, including the modulation of growth, angiogenesis, invasion, metastasis, and hormone escape. This review will focus on the roles and the mechanisms of action and regulation of chemokines in the different steps of PCa development and will discuss the novel strategies that are currently envisioned to target chemokines in PCa.

The effects of IL-33 on intra-MFC cholesterol level, IL-10, ABCA1 and CD36 expression, ERK 1/2, Sp1, STAT3 and STAT4 activation, and IL-10 promoter activity were determined.

    Prevention of Respiratory Syncytial Virus Attachment Protein Cleavage in Vero Cells Rescues Infectivity of Progeny Virions for Primary Human Airway Cultures DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jacqueline D. Corry, B.A. Graduate Program in Integrated Biomedical Science Program The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Mark E. Peeples, Ph.D.—Advisor Douglas M. McCarty, Ph.D. Ian Davis, DVM, Ph.D. Stefan Niewiesk, DVM, Ph.D. Copyright by Jacqueline D. Corry 2015 Abstract Live attenuated respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine candidates are produced in Vero cells, a cell line that cleaves the attachment (G) glycoprotein. As a result, Vero- derived virus is 5-fold less infectious for primary well-differentiated human airway epithelial (HAE) cultures than virus grown in HeLa. HAE cultures are isolated directly from the human airways, so it is likely that Vero-grown vaccine virus would be similarly inefficient at initiating infection of the nasal epithelium following vaccination, requiring a larger inoculum, thereby raising the cost per dose. Using protease inhibitors with increasing specificity, we identified cathepsin L as the responsible protease and confirmed that virus grown in the presence of protease inhibitors was more infectious for HAE cultures. Our evidence suggests that the G protein interacts with cathepsin L in the late endosome or lysosome via endocytic recycling. While essential for Nipah virus F protein cleavage, endocytic recycling is detrimental to the production of infectious RSV from Vero cells. We found that cathepsin L is able to cleave the G protein in Vero-grown, but not in HeLa-grown virions suggesting a difference in G protein posttranslational modification.

Treatment of U-937 cells with the cyclic nucleotide analog, dibutyryl Treatment of U-937 cells with agents that elevate intracellu- cyclic adenosine-3',5'-monophosphate (dBcAMP) induced these cells to lar cAMP such as dBcAMP, prostaglandin E2, or cholera toxin differentiate towards granulocytes. dBcAMP produced a dose- and time- has been reported to potentiate the differentiating effects of dependent inhibition of U-937 cell growth reaching a maximum after 48- both retinoic acid and vitamin D, (4, 13, 14). This suggests that h treatment with 500 /JM. At this concentration, dBcAMP had no effect cAMP-dependent phosphorylation reactions may modulate dif on cell viability. Treatment with dBcAMP caused a rapid (within 24 h) decrease in the number of cells in the S phase of the cell cycle, with a ferentiation of myeloid cells (4). If cAMP is involved in differ concomitant increase in cells in the (.„<(.,phase.dBcAMP also induced entiation, then one would predict that agents that increase the appearance of f-met-leu-phe receptors on U-937 cells as well as the intracellular levels of this mediator would, by themselves, in ability to produce hydrogen peroxide and Superoxide anión.These data duce differentiation.

Growth of Legionella pneumophila in a human macrophage-like (U937) cell line . Microbial Pathogenesis 1988; 5: 87-95 . We established a model of the bacteria-macrophage interaction to study the cellular basis of Legionella pneumophila pathogenesis and to characterize avirulent L. pneumophila. We found that U937 cells, which are derived from a human histiocytic lymphoma cell line, support intracellular growth of L. pneumophila with a doubling time of 6 h, and that sustained intracellular growth is associated with a cytopathic effect (CPE) that can be detected by microscopic examination and quantified with the vital stain 3-(4,5-dimethyl thiazol-2-yl)-2,5,- diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) . An L. pneumophila isolate obtained directly from infected guinea-pig spleens can grow and produce CPE in these cells, destroying most of the cell layer after 72 h of growth . Only 106 organisms of this strain are required to kill 50% of guinea-pigs inoculated by the intraperitoneal route. In contrast, an avirulent isolate derived by 203 successive plate passages of the same strain can neither kill guinea-pigs at an intraperitoneal inoculum of 10' nor grow or produce CPE in U937 cells .
