Eicosanoids play a prominent role in trauma. Such mediators of inflammation negatively influence cell-mediated immunity (CMI). There is, however, no information available on the effect of eicosanoids on a critical event in CMI, i.e., antigen-presenting (AP) cell function of macrophages (M luminal diameter), a cellular process responsible for the activation of T and B lymphocytes. The aim of this study, therefore, was to examine the effect of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and thromboxane B2 (TXB2) on AP cell function of the peritoneal M luminal diameter. To study this, a T-helper-cell clone, D10.G4.1 was employed. This cell clone proliferates in the presence of Iak (Class II glycoprotein, MAC product) bearing M luminal diameter and specific antigen (conalbumin A) thus directly reflecting the AP capability of the M luminal diameter. Peritoneal M luminal diameter were harvested from B10.BR mice (H2k) and their AP was tested in vitro by incubating varying numbers of M luminal diameter with 2 X 10(4) D10.G4.1 cells/well and conalbumin (400 micrograms/ml) in the presence and absence of different concentrations of PGE2 or TXB2. Cultures were incubated for 72 hr, pulsed with [3H]-thymidine, and harvested. At concentrations of 10, 30, and 100 nM of PGE2, D10.G4.1 proliferations were 38, 35, and 20% of control, respectively (P less than 0.05 compared to control). TXB2 added at the above-mentioned concentrations did not suppress the proliferative response of D10. Thus, PGE2 but not TXB2 has a potent immunosuppressive effect on AP of peritoneal M luminal diameter.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
类花生酸在创伤中起重要作用。这类炎症介质会对细胞介导的免疫(CMI)产生负面影响。然而,关于类花生酸对CMI中一个关键事件,即巨噬细胞(管腔直径M)的抗原呈递(AP)细胞功能的影响,目前尚无相关信息,而巨噬细胞的这一细胞过程负责T和B淋巴细胞的激活。因此,本研究的目的是检测前列腺素E2(PGE2)和血栓素B2(TXB2)对腹膜管腔直径M的AP细胞功能的影响。为研究此问题,采用了T辅助细胞克隆D10.G4.1。该细胞克隆在携带管腔直径M的Iak(II类糖蛋白,MAC产物)和特异性抗原(伴清蛋白A)存在的情况下增殖,从而直接反映管腔直径M的AP能力。从B10.BR小鼠(H2k)获取腹膜管腔直径M,并在有或无不同浓度PGE2或TXB2存在的情况下,将不同数量的管腔直径M与2×10⁴个D10.G4.1细胞/孔以及伴清蛋白(400微克/毫升)一起体外孵育,以检测其AP。培养72小时后,加入[³H] - 胸腺嘧啶核苷脉冲标记,然后收获细胞。在PGE2浓度为10、30和100 nM时,D10.G4.1的增殖分别为对照的38%、35%和20%(与对照相比,P<0.05)。以上述浓度添加的TXB2并未抑制D10的增殖反应。因此,PGE2而非TXB2对腹膜管腔直径M的AP具有强大的免疫抑制作用。(摘要截选至250字)
