Cystatin C (gamma-trace) was found to be a constitutively secreted protein of isolated human monocytes and mouse peritoneal macrophages, as well as the histiocytic lymphoma cell lines U937, P388D.1, and J774. This proteinase inhibitor is not uniquely secreted by monocytes/macrophages, but was also identified in the conditioned media from several primary cells, including brain cells, and diverse established cell lines. In vitro treatment of resident mouse peritoneal macrophages with either LPS or IFN-gamma caused a downregulation in cystatin C secretion. Elaboration of this protein was also diminished by macrophages that had been stimulated by thioglycollate in vivo, and treatment of these cells with LPS led to further decline. It is suggested that, under some inflammatory conditions, downregulation of cystatin C may contribute to tissue pathology.

After in vitro exposure to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or muramyl dipeptide (MDP), cultured resident mouse peritoneal macrophages were primed to display enhanced generation of superoxide anion (O2-) in response to stimulation by phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) or opsonized zymosan. Priming with LPS (1 microgram/ml) produced a sevenfold enhancement of PMA-stimulated O2- generation; priming was detected within 30 min and persisted for at least 4 d. Exposure to MDP (1 muM) primed the macrophages to double their O2- release; the response was first observed after 4 h and persisted for at least 3 d. The priming response was not observed with stereoisomers of MDP, which are inactive as adjuvants. LPS and MDP appeared to work directly on the macrophages rather than indirectly by interacting with adherent lymphocytes: (a) Addition of nonadherent cell populations that contained lymphocytes had no effect on the response. (b) The response was normal with cells from nude mice, which lack mature T lymphocytes. (c) Macrophages from C3H/HeJ mice, whose B lymphocytes fail to respond to LPS, were weak in their response to priming LPS; the addition of normal (C3Heb/FeJ) nonadherent cells had no effect on this weak response. (d) The macrophage-like cell line J774.1 also showed enhanced O2--generating capacity after a 4-h exposure to LPS or MDP. The O2--generating capacity of macrophages primed with LPS in vitro was equivalent to that previously observed with cells elicited in vivo by injection of LPS or activated by infection with Bacille Calmette-Guérin. The data suggest that previous exposure to bacterial products could prime macrophages to respond with increased production of toxic oxygen metabolites on contact with invading microorganisms or tumor cells.

In order to confirm whether HSFL (the fermented liquor of mycelia of Hirsutella sinensis) still contains cordycepin, Cordyceps polysaccharide and other functional components, and has the functions of anti-oxidation, tumor inhibition and immunity enhancement, the biological activity of HSFL In Vivo and in vitro was studied in this study. The transformation ability of mouse spleen lymphocytes induced by ConA, the activity of NK cells in mouse spleen, the delayed allergic reaction induced by DNFB and the phagocytosis of chicken red cells by mouse peritoneal macrophages were studied. The results showed that when the concentration of HSFL was 0.5972 mg/kg and 1.1944 mg/kg, the transformation of lymphocytes induced by ConA and the activity of NK cells were significantly increased. HSFL also can significantly improve DNFB induced anaphylaxis in mice and phagocytosis of chicken erythrocytes by peritoneal macrophages in mice when the dose of HSFL is 50 mg/kg and 75 mg/kg, indicating that HSFL has the biological activity of enhancing immunity in vitro and In Vivo.
