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.

Han, Hee-Sung,Kim, Jung-Keun,Chang, Young-Il 대한치과교정학회 1995 대한치과교정학회지 Vol.25 No.6

Effects of several cytokines( IL-1β, TNFα, and IFNγ) have been examined on fetal rat osteoblast-like cells. To investigate whether cytokines ply direct causal roles in production of lysosomal enzyme, fetal rat osteoblast-like cells were treated with IL-1β, TNFα, and IFNγ, respectively or combined. And acid phosphatase was determined by biochemical method. Alkaline phosphatase was assayed to determine the effects of IL-1β, TNFα, and IFNγon the expression of this enzyme. And also experiment of calcified nodule formation was performed to assess the effects of cytokines on the bone-forming activity of osteoblast-like cells in vitro. Acid phosphatase activity was significantly increased by the addition of IL-1β, TNFα, whereas decreased by IFNγ. However, no significant changes in alkaline phosphatase activity was observed when the osteoblast-like cells were treated with IL-1βand TNFα. Interestingly, IFNγ showed stimulatory effect on alkaline phosphatase activity. The number of calcified nodules was decreased by treatment of cultures with 1 ng/ml IL-1β, 20 ng/ml TNFα, and 500 u/ml IFNγ continuously for 21 days, while considerable number of calcified nodules were formed in control group of osteoblast-like cell in culture for 21 days. These results seem to suggest that cytokines may play crucial roles in bone remodeling through the direct action on the osteoblast-like cell.

Yang, Jae-Heon,Yun, Mi-Young,Lee, Nam-Hee,Kim, Dae-Keun,Kim, Young-Il,Noh, Young-Hee,Kim, Tae-Youl,Yoon, Se-Won,Shin, Sang-Chul 대한약학회 2008 Archives of Pharmacal Research Vol.31 No.11

This study examined the effects of ketorolac tromethamine (KT) and baicalein (BE) on the levels of inflammatory factors in human synoviocytes. The fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) cells were used to determine the possible regulatory effects of KT and BE (KTBE) on the levels of inflammatory factors in FLS cells. In addition, the levels of TNF-$\alpha$, IL-6, and IL-$1{\beta}$ mRNA expression in FLS cells induced by a TNF-$\alpha$ and IL-$1{\beta}$ co-treatment were largely inhibited by a KTBE treatment. The level of FLS cells proliferation was increased by IL-$1{\beta}$ and TNF-$\alpha$, and strongly inhibited by KTBE treatment. The production of oxygen species (ROS) was inhibited by KTBE in FLS cells. KTBE appears to regulate the levels of mRNA that are important for regulating RA progression.

Lee, Dong-Keun,Jeon, Soyeon,Han, Youngju,Kim, Sung-Hyun,Lee, Seonghan,Yu, Il Je,Song, Kyung Seuk,Kang, Aeyeon,Yun, Wan Soo,Kang, Sung-Min,Huh, Yun Suk,Cho, Wan-Seob American Chemical Society 2018 ACS NANO Vol.12 No.11

<P>The qualitative and quantitative evaluation of the physicochemical parameters associated with the pathogenicity of high-aspect-ratio nanomaterials is important for comprehensive regulation efforts and safety-by-design approaches. Here, we report quantitative data on the correlations between the rigidity of these nanomaterials and toxicity endpoints <I>in vitro</I> and <I>in vivo</I>. As measured by new ISO standards published in 2017, rigidity shows a strong positive correlation with inflammogenic potential, as indicated by inflammatory cell counts and IL-1β (a biomarker for frustrated phagocytosis) levels in both the acute and chronic phases. <I>In vitro</I> experiments using differentiated THP-1 cells find that only highly rigid multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and asbestos fibers lead to piercing and frustrated phagocytosis. Thus, this study suggests a bending ratio of 0.97 and a static bending persistence length of 1.08 as threshold rigidity values for asbestos-like pathogenicity. However, additional research using MWCNTs with rigidity values that lie between those of non-inflammogenic (<I>D</I><SUB>b</SUB> = 0.66 and SBPL = 0.87) and inflammogenic fibers (<I>D</I><SUB>b</SUB> = 0.97 and SBPL = 1.09) is required to identify more accurate threshold values, which would be useful for comprehensive regulation and safety-by-design approaches based on MWCNTs.</P> [FIG OMISSION]</BR>

Compared with the control group, the human AD‐MSC–treated group had a significantly higher survival rate with improvement of histologic and serologic abnormalities and immunologic function, and also had a decreased incidence of proteinuria. Anti–double‐stranded DNA antibodies and blood urea nitrogen levels decreased significantly with transplantation of human AD‐MSCs, and serum levels of granulocyte–macrophage colony‐stimulating factor, interleukin‐4 (IL‐4), and IL‐10 increased significantly. A significant increase in the proportion of CD4+FoxP3+ cells and a marked restoration of capacity for cytokine production were observed in spleens from the human AD‐MSC–treated group. In the second experiment, an early stage treatment group showed better results (higher survival rates and lower incidence of proteinuria) than an advanced stage treatment group.</P><P><B>Conclusion</B></P><P>Serial human AD‐MSC transplantation had beneficial effects in the treatment of SLE, without adverse effects. Transplantation of human AD‐MSCs before disease onset was preferable for amelioration of SLE and restoration of immune homeostasis.</P>

Effective Microorganism Substance (EM-S) Reduces Development and Aggravation of Atopic Dermatitis-like Skin Lesions in NC/Nga Mice

Park, Kwang-Hyun,Jeong, Seung-Il,Mok, Ji-Ye,Cho, Jung-Keun,Park, Ji-Min,Jeon, In-Hwa,Kim, Hyeon-Soo,Jang, Seon-Il The Korean Society for Applied Biological Chemistr 2011 Applied Biological Chemistry (Appl Biol Chem) Vol.54 No.2

In a previous study, our group showed that the effective microorganism substance (EM-S) produced by fermentation of medicinal plants with effective microorganisms has an antiinflammatory effect on atopic dermatitis-like lesions in NC/Nga mice. However, the possible antiinflammatory effect and skin barrier function of EM-S for inflammatory cell infiltration, Interleukin-4 (IL-4) production, C-C chemokine receptor 10 (CCR10), and filaggrin (FLG) expression were not reported. Therefore, effects of EM-S on the development of atopic dermatitislike skin lesions in NC/Nga mice were evaluated. Efficacy of EM-S was judged by measurement of scratching behavior, T-cell subset infiltration, cytokine production, and FLG expression. Topical application of EM-S significantly reduced scratching behavior in NC/Nga mice caused by house dust mite antigen (Dermatophagoides farinse extract, DfE) sensitization. IL-4 production and $CD4^+$ and $CD45^+$ cell infiltrations were significantly reduced by EM-S. CCR10 expression was also significantly inhibited by EM-S. EM-S treatment also increased the level of FLG reduced by DfE sensitization. These results demonstrate EM-S, when applied topically, may be an effective substance for management of atopic dermatitis patients.

We evaluated the effectiveness of rhamnogalacturonan II (RG-II)-stimulated bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs)vaccination on the induction of antitumor immunity in a mouse lymphoma model using EG7-lymphoma cells expressing ovalbumin (OVA). BMDCs treated with RG-II had an activated phenotype. RG-II induced interleukin (IL)-12, IL-1b, tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-a) and interferon-c (IFN-c) production during dendritic cell (DC) maturation. BMDCs stimulated with RG-II facilitate the proliferation of CD8þ T cells. Using BMDCs from the mice deficient in Toll-like receptors (TLRs), we revealed that RG-II activity is dependent on TLR4. RG-II showed a preventive effect of immunization with OVA-pulsed BMDCs against EG7 lymphoma. These results suggested that RG-II expedites the DC-based immune response through the TLR4signaling pathway.
