Human recombinant interferon gamma enhances neonatal polymorphonuclear leukocyte activation and movement, and increases free intracellular calcium
In previous studies, we have reported that after chemotactic factor stimulation, PMNs from neonates fail to undergo certain critical activation steps. Furthermore, the concentration of free intracellular calcium reached is significantly below that of PMNs from adults. Interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) is a lymphokine that has been shown to activate phagocytic cells, and IFN-gamma messenger RNA produ...
متن کاملProkaryotic RNA Associated to Bacterial Viability Induces Polymorphonuclear Neutrophil Activation
Polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) are the first cellular line of antibacterial host defense. They sense pathogens through recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by innate pattern recognition receptors, such as Toll-like receptors (TLR). The aim of this study was to investigate whether PMN sense bacterial viability and explore which viability factor could be involved in ...
متن کاملInducible Expression of Human Gamma Interferon
Background:The premature termination of high producer clones, which will be killed due to cell proliferation and proteins production antagonism, is one of the basic drawback in recombinant proteins technology. Furtheremore, it is supposed some toxic proteins like interferon which we intended to clone and express, inhibit host cells’ proliferation. So, it is necessary to tightly control IFN-γ pr...
متن کاملEFFECTS OF SERUM AND PROTEIN SYNTHESIS INHIBITORS ON POLYMORPHONUCLEAR NEUTROPHIL APOPTOSIS
In this study the programmed cell death (apoptosis) of human neutrophilic granulocytes was investigated in the presence and absence of fetal calf serum (FCS), cycloheximide and actinomycin-D. The results show that when FCS is omitted from cultures, apart from a decrease in viability, the percentage of apoptotic cells and DNA fragmentation increases. Apoptosis is accelerated in serum withdra...
متن کاملIncrease in neutrophil Fc gamma receptor I expression following interferon gamma treatment in rheumatoid arthritis.
The therapeutic potential of interferon gamma (IFN gamma) in a number of disease states is still being explored, but progress is hampered by the lack of a suitable measure of in vivo biological activity. To assess the in vivo biological effects of recombinant human IFN gamma (rhIFN gamma), 14 patients were studied in a randomised, prospective, double blind, placebo controlled trial of this cyto...
