Xenotransplantation of porcine organs has the potential to overcome the severe shortage of human tissues and organ available for human transplantation. however, it remains various hurdles for clinical xenotransplantation. In pig and mouse xenotransplantation, porcine xenograft evoke a strong cellular rejection response in immunocompetent host and grafts are destroyed within a week. This cellular immune response could involved both T cells and NK cells. A number of groups have shown that human NK cells can recognize and damage porcine endothelial cells. In addition, human T cells can respond to porcine endothelial cells through both direct and indirect mechanisms. Cellular rejection of porcine tissues requires T cells, particularly CD4^(+) cells. A new cytokine recombinant human interleukin-32α,β(IL-32α,β) has a role innate and acquired immune system. In order to investigate the role of recombinant mouse IL-18 and recombinant human IL-32α,β in xenograft rejection, we transplanted the PK(15) cells to C57BL/6 mice with or without intraperitoneal injection of recombinant mouse IL-18 or recombinant human IL-32 α,β. It was analyzed the population of NK cell, T cell and B cell in the C57BL/6 mice transplanted with PK(15) cells and recombinant mouse IL-18 or recombinant human IL-32α,β by flow cytometry analysis. As a result, lymph node and thymus of PK15/IL18, PK15/IL32α and PK15/IL32β injected group were increased to T cell activation population than normal injected groups. CD8^(+) T cells were decreased in lymph node of PK15/IL18, PK15/IL32α and PK15/IL32β injected groups. CD4^(+) T cells were increased in lymph node cell of PK15/IL32α and PK15/IL32β injected group and also, B cell population were increased in lymph node cell and spleen of PK15/IL18, PK15/IL32α and PK15/IL32β injected group. Therefore, we suggest that recombinant mouse IL-18 and recombinant human IL-32α,β suppress xenograft rejection in cellular xenotransplantation.

<P>T cell stimulation via glucocorticoid-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR)-related protein (GITR) elicits antitumor activity in various tumor models; however, the underlying mechanism of action remains unclear. Here we demonstrate a crucial role for interleukin (IL)-9 in antitumor immunity generated by the GITR agonistic antibody DTA-1. IL-4 receptor knockout (Il4ra(-/-)) mice, which have reduced expression of IL-9, were resistant to tumor growth inhibition by DTA-1. Notably, neutralization of IL-9 considerably impaired tumor rejection induced by DTA-1. In particular, DTA-1-induced IL-9 promoted tumor-specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses by enhancing the function of dendritic cells in vivo. Furthermore, GITR signaling enhanced the differentiation of IL-9-producing CD4(+) T-helper (T(H)9) cells in a TNFR-associated factor 6 (TRAF6)- and NF-kappa B-dependent manner and inhibited the generation of induced regulatory T cells in vitro. Our findings demonstrate that GITR co-stimulation mediates antitumor immunity by promoting T(H)9 cell differentiation and enhancing CTL responses and thus provide a mechanism of action for GITR agonist-mediated cancer immunotherapies.</P>

김용구,이민수,김 인,곽동일,서광윤 大韓神經精神醫學會 1998 신경정신의학 Vol.37 No.3

연구배경 : 정신분열병이 유전적이라고 제시하는 많은 역학 연구와 유전자 연구에도 불구하고, 이 질환의 유전방식과 질병유전자는 밝혀져 있지 않다. 본 연구에서는 정신분열병과 22번 염색체 장완의 11.2-12부위에 위치한 Interleukin-2수용체 β chain 유전자간에 유전적 연합을 조사하고자 정신분열병 환자 93명과 정상대조군 97명 대상으로 중합효소연쇄반응을 이용하여 Interleukin-2 수용체 β chain (IL-2Rβ) 유전자의 다형성 분포를 조사하였다. 연구방법 : 환자군은 DSM-Ⅲ-R 진단기준에 따라 임상아형(망상형, 붕괴형, 미붕괴형, 잔류형)으로 분류하였다. 음성 및 양성 정신분열병으로 분류하기위해 Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale(PANSS)을 사용하였다. Genomic DNA를 전혈 임파구에서 추출한 후, IL-2Rβ 유전자좌를 분석하기 위해 dinucleotide(GT)n 염기배열순서를 중합효소연쇄반응을 이용하여 증폭시켰다. 연구결과 : IL-1Rβ의 대립유전자는 모두 8가지 종류이고, guanine-thymine의 반복된 149 염기쌍을 시작으로 151, 153, 155, 157, 159, 161, 163 염기쌍의 형태를 보였다. 정신분열병 환자군과 정상대조군간에 도형접합체 및 이형접합체 빈도의 유의한 차이는 없었다. 환자군과 정상대조군의 대립유전자 분포의 빈도는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다. 더욱이 각각의 대립유전자 분포에서도 양군간 유의한 차이는 없었다. 또한 동질의 아형으로 분류해 보기위해 임상아형, 양성 및 음성증상군, 가족력의 유무에 따라 비교적 동질적인 표현형을 가진 집단으로 나눈 후 대립유전자 분포를 비교해 보았으나 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 결 론 : 본 연구에서는 Interleukin-2 수용체 β chain 유전자가 정신분열병의 병인론에 관련된다는 가설을 지지할 만한 긍정적 소견을 얻지 못했다. Background : While a significant genetic predisposition to schizophrenia has been proposed, the mode of inheritance or nature of etiological factors is unknown. Previous reports of a genome-wide survey for schizophrenia susceptibility genes have indicated a possible region of linkage on chromosome 22. In order to test the possibility that the interleukin-2 receptor β chain(IL-2Rβ) gene on chromosome 22 is of etiological importance in schizophrenia, a case-control association study was conducted. Methods : Subjects were ninety-three schizophrenic patients with a diagnosis of schizophrenia by DSM-Ⅲ-R criteria and ninety-seven normal controls, Schizophrenic patients were divided by clinical phenotypes such as DSM-Ⅲ-R diagnostic subtypes, positive and negative symptoms, and family history so as to increase the homogeneity of schizophrenics. Genomic DNA was extracted from whole blood lymphocytes according to standard procedures. The DNA was used to study a dinucleotide repeat in the IL-2Rβ gene. To reveal the dinucleotide polymorphism. genomic DNA of subjects was amplified by polymerase chain reactions(PCR). Results : At the IL-2Rβ gene locus, all the previously reported alleles(eight different alleles) of a dinucleotide polymorphism were identified. There was no significant difference between number of heterozygosity in schizophrenic patients and in normal controls. There was no significant difference in the distribution of frequencies of alleles between schizophrenics and normal controls. In addition, there was no significant difference in the allele frequencies among subtypes of schizophrenic patients according to DSM-Ⅲ-R diagnostic subtypes, positive and negative symptoms, and family history. Conclusion : The present study did not detect a difference in frequencies of alleles of a dinucleotide polymorphism at the IL-2Rβ gene locus between schizophrenic patients and normal controls. These results do not supports an evidence that IL-2Rβ gene plays, a major role in the etiology of schizophrenia.

N/A Rackground/Aims: Interleukin-6 (lL-6), also known as B cell stimulatory factor 2(BSF-2), induces the final maturation of B cells to antitxxiy-producing cells. IL-6 has many biologic properties including the immune and intlammatory responses. This study wos aimed to evaluate the role of local interleukin 6(IL-6) in the pathogenesis of chronic hepatitis. Methods; We examined the cellular site and grade of IL-6 staining in paraffin sections of the liver from 24 patients with liver disease, using immunohistochemistry with a polyclonal antitwdy. The patient. Were divided into two groups; Group A(n=l3) with high histologic uctivi1y consisted of CAH-type B(n=10) ond active cirrhosis(n=3), whilc Group B(n= l l) with low hi.itologic activity consisted of CPH-type B(n=4), inactive cirrhosis(n=2) and fatty liver(n=S). Results: There was no staining of IL-6 in normal liver tissue. Thv grade.I of IL-6 staining in Group A were three positive in seven cases (53.81o), two positive in five ca.ics(38.3%) and one positive in only one case(7.7%), while those in Group B were one positivc in three cases(27.3%) ancl trace in eight case.(72.7ln).

Interleukin-6가 사람 골수기질세포의 Alkaline Phosphatase, Osteontin, Decorin 및 a1(1)-Collagen mRNA 발현에 미치는 영향

김동관,김철희,김기수,손광현,박승일 대한내분비학회 1996 Endocrinology and metabolism Vol.11 No.2

Background: Inter1eukin-6(IL-6) is known to be produced by osteoblastic cells and to have impartant role in regulation of bone remodelling, Most previous studies indicated that IL-6 bas a major role in stimulating osteoclastic resorption by increasing recruitment and proliferation of preosteoclasts. But its autocrine effect on osteoblastic cells has not been well established yet. Therefore, we studied the effects of IL-6 on messenger RNA (mRNA) expression of proteins that are characteristic of osteoblastic cells in human bone marrow stromal (osteoprogenitor) cells (hRMSC). Methods: The expression of mRNAs for alkaline phosphatase, al(1)-collagen, osteopontin and decorin were studied by northern blot analysis after 3 7 days' treatrnent with IL-6 in the concenttation range of 101,000 U/ml. Results: The mRNA levels for any of the osteoblastic proteins studied did not change significantly by IL-6 treatment up to the concentration of 1,000 U/ml. Conclusion: These results suggest that IL-6 does not have a significant role in differentiatian or activities of human bone rnarrow stromal (osteoprogenitor) cells (J Kor Soc Endocrinol ll:156 162, 1996).

Kim, Kun-Yong,Kim, Jae Kwang,Han, Seung Hyun,Lim, Jong-Seok,Kim, Keun Il,Cho, Dae Ho,Lee, Myeong-Sok,Lee, Jeong-Hyung,Yoon, Do-Young,Yoon, Suk Ran,Chung, Jin Woong,Choi, Inpyo,Kim, Eunjoon,Yang, Young American Association of Immunologists 2006 Journal of Immunology Vol.176 No.10

<P>NK cells are a key component of innate immune systems, and their activity is regulated by cytokines and hormones. Adiponectin, which is secreted from white adipose tissues, plays important roles in various diseases, including hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, inflammatory disorders, and cancer. In this study the effect of adiponectin on NK cell activity was investigated. Adiponectin was found to suppress the IL-2-enhanced cytotoxic activity of NK cells without affecting basal NK cell cytotoxicity and to inhibit IL-2-induced NF-kappaB activation via activation of the AMP-activated protein kinase, indicating that it suppresses IL-2-enhanced NK cell cytotoxicity through the AMP-activated protein kinase-mediated inhibition of NF-kappaB activation. IFN-gamma enhances NK cell cytotoxicity by causing an increase in the levels of expression of TRAIL and Fas ligand. The production of IFN-gamma, one of the NF-kappaB target genes in NK cells, was also found to be suppressed by adiponectin, accompanied by the subsequent down-regulation of IFN-gamma-inducible TRAIL and Fas ligand expression. These results clearly demonstrate that adiponectin is a potent negative regulator of IL-2-induced NK cell activation and thus may act as an in vivo regulator of anti-inflammatory functions.</P>

<P>Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) functions as an adjuvant for antitumor immunity through an unclear mechanism. By activating monocyte-derived dendritic cells, GM-CSF induces Th9 development and IL9 production, which facilitates antitumor cytotoxic T lymphocyte responses.</P><P>GM-CSF as an adjuvant has been shown to promote antitumor immunity in mice and humans; however, the underlying mechanism of GM-CSF–induced antitumor immunity remains incompletely understood. In this study, we demonstrate that GM-CSF potentiates the efficacy of cancer vaccines through IL9-producing Th (Th9) cells. GM-CSF selectively enhanced Th9 cell differentiation by regulating the COX2–PGE<SUB>2</SUB> pathway while inhibiting the differentiation of induced regulatory T (iTreg) cells <I>in vitro</I> and <I>in vivo</I>. GM-CSF–activated monocyte-derived dendritic cells converted tumor-specific nai¨ve Th cells into Th9 cells, and delayed tumor growth by inducing antitumor CTLs in an IL9-dependent manner. Our findings reveal a mechanism for the adjuvanticity of GM-CSF and provide a rationale for the use of GM-CSF in cancer vaccines.</P>

<P><I>Lonicera japonica THUNB.</I>, which abundantly contains polyphenols, has been used as a traditional medicine for thousands of years in East Asian countries because of the anti-inflammation properties. This study aimed to investigate the anti-inflammatory mechanism of polyphenol components isolated from Korea <I>L. japonica T.</I> by nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-<I><I>κ</I></I>B) and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) pathway. Polyphenols significantly decreased lipopolysaccharide- (LPS-) induced mRNA and protein expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase and cyclooxygenase-2, as well as mRNA expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin- (IL-) 1<I><I>β</I></I>, and IL-6. Moreover, polyphenols inhibited nuclear translocation of NF-<I><I>κ</I></I>B p65, phosphorylation/degradation of the inhibitor of <I><I>κ</I></I>B, and phosphorylation of p38 MAPK, whereas the extracellular signal-regulated kinase and Janus N-terminal kinase were not affected. These results indicate that polyphenol components isolated from Korea <I>L. japonica T.</I> should have anti-inflammatory effect on LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells through the decrease of proinflammatory mediators expression by suppressing NF-<I><I>κ</I></I>B and p38 MAPK activity.</P>

본 연구에서는 아토피 피부염 동물 모델에 대한 β-1,3/1,6-glucan과 L. plantarum LM1004의 면역조절 효과를 확인하고자 하였다. 가려움증의 횟수와 유출된 evans blue, 그리고 혈청 IgE와 histamine의 농도는 β-1,3/1,6-glucan과 L. plantarum LM1004를 섭취한 그룹에서 아토피 피부염 유발그룹에 비해 유의적으로 감소하는 결과를 나타내었다. 아토피 피부염이 유발되면 전사 수준에서 Th2 및 Th17 세포의 전사인자 및 cytokine은 과발현되며, β-1,3/1,6-glucan과 L. plantarum LM1004를 섭취하였을 때 이를 유의적으로 감소되었다. 또한 β-1,3/1,6-glucan과 L. plantarum LM1004는 Th1 및 Treg 세포의 전사인자(T-bet, GATA-3, RORγT, Foxp3) 및 cytokine (INF-γ, IL-4, IL-17, TGF-β)의 발현을 증가시킴으로써 면역 균형을 조절하는 것으로 나타났다. Galectin-9과 filaggrin은 아토피 피부염 유발 처리군에서 유의적으로 가장 낮았으며, β-1,3/1,6-glucan 처리군에서 유의적으로 가장 높게 나타났다. 이와 반대로 TSLP는 아토피 피부염 유발그룹에서 유의적으로 가장 높았으며 β-1,3/1,6-glucan과 L. plantarum LM1004를 섭취한 그룹은 대조군과 유사한 수준이었다. 이러한 결과를 통해 β-1,3/1,6-glucan과 L. plantarum LM1004는 아토피 피부염 동물 모델에서 면역조절 작용 및 아토피 피부염의 개선 효과를 가짐을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 β-1,3/1,6-glucan과 L. plantarum LM1004는 아토피 피부염에 유용한 천연소재로서 사용될 것으로 기대된다. In this study, we examined the efficacy of the immune regulation of β-1,3/1,6-glucan and Lactobacillus plantarum LM1004 on atopic dermatitis models. The oral administration of β-1,3/1,6-glucan and L. plantarum LM1004 on mice significantly decreased the amount of scratching, leakage to evans blue, and concentrations of serum immunoglobulin E (IgE) and histamine compared with the atopic dermatitis–induced group. When atopic dermatitis was induced, the transcription factors (GATA-3, retinoic acid-related orphan receptor γ T [RORγT]) and cytokines (interleukin-4 [IL-4], IL-17) of Th2 and Th17 cells were overexpressed at the transcriptional level, and they significantly decreased with oral administration of β-1,3/1,6-glucan and L. plantarum LM1004. In addition, β-1,3/1,6-glucan and L. plantarum LM1004 were shown to modulate the immune balance by increasing the expression of Th1 and Treg transcription (T-bet, forkhead box p3 [Foxp3]) and cytokines (interferon-γ [IFN-γ], transforming growth factor-β [TGF-β]). Galectin-9 and filaggrin were significantly lower in the atopic dermatitis–induced group and significantly higher in the β-1,3/1,6-glucan-treated group. In contrast, thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) was highest in the atopic dermatitis–induced group, while mice that were orally administered β-1,3/1,6-glucan and L. plantarum LM1004 showed similar TSLP levels to the control group. These results indicate that β-1,3/1,6-glucan and L. plantarum LM1004 have immunomodulatory effects and atopic dermatitis improvement effects in an animal model of atopic dermatitis. Therefore, it is expected that β-1,3/1,6-glucan and L. plantarum LM1004 can be used as natural materials in the treatment of atopic dermatitis.
