Anti Inflammatory

Recently, adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) are considered to be ideal for application in cell therapy or tissue regeneration, mainly due to their wide availability and easy access. In this study, we examined the anti-inflammatory effects of membrane-free stem cell extract (MFSC-Ex) derived from ADSCs against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)/interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) on RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. Exposure of RAW macrophages to LPS and IFN-γ stimuli induced high levels of nitric oxide (NO), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production. However, pretreatment with MFSC-Ex inhibited LPS/IFN-γ-induced these pro-inflammatory mediators. To clarify the molecular mechanisms underlying the anti-inflammatory property of MFSC-Ex, we analyzed nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) protein expressions by Western blotting. Our study showed that treatment of MFSC-Ex significantly down-regulated inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and COX-2 protein expressions. Furthermore, phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and p38 was also blocked by treatment with MFSC-Ex, indicating that inhibitory effect of MFSC-Ex on MAPK signaling cascade may attribute to inactivation of NF-κB. From these findings, we suggest that MFSC-Ex exert anti-inflammatory activities, which suppressed LPS/IFN-γ-induced production of NO, COX-2 and PGE2 by regulation of NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathway in RAW 264.7 macrophages. In conclusion, MFSC-Ex might provide a new therapeutic opportunity to treatment of inflammatory-related diseases.

AbstractInterferon-gamma (IFN-γ) is a cytokine involved in the pathogenesis of Takayasu’s arteritis (TAK). However, the source of IFN-γ in TAK patients is not fully clear. We aimed to investigate the source of IFN-γ in TAK. 60 TAK patients and 35 health controls were enrolled. The lymphocyte subsets of peripheral blood were detected by flow cytometry, cytokines were detected by Bio-plex. The correlation among lymphocyte subsets, cytokines and disease activity indexes was analyzed by person correlation. The level of serum IFN-γ in TAK patients was significantly increased (P < 0.05). The percentage of CD3+IFN-γ+ cells in peripheral blood CD3+ cells was significantly higher in TAK patients than that of healthy control group (P = 0.002). A higher proportion of CD3+CD8+IFN-γ+ cells/CD3+IFN-γ+ cells (40.23 ± 11.98% vs 35.12 ± 11.51%, P = 0.049), and a significantly lower CD3+CD4+IFN-γ+/ CD3+CD8+IFN-γ+ ratio (1.34 ± 0.62% vs 1.80 ± 1.33%, P = 0.027) were showed in the TAK group than that of control group. The CD3+CD8+IFN-γ+/CD3+IFN-γ+ ratio was positively correlated with CD3+IFN-γ+cells/ CD3+cells ratio (r = 0.430, P = 0.001), serum IFN-γ level (r = 0.318, P = 0.040) and IL-17 level (r = 0.326, P = 0.031). It was negatively correlated with CD3+CD4+IFN-γ+/CD3+IFN-γ+ ratio (r = − 0.845, P < 0.001). IFN-γ secreted by CD3+CD8 + T cells is an important source of serum IFN-γ in TAK patients.

Vitro Effect

Cytokines are proteins secreted by cells of innate and acquired immunity, produced in response to various antigens and responsible for mediating several function of these cells. Our study evaluated the profile of cytokines interleukin 5 (IL-5) and interferon gamma (IFN-γ), induced in lymphocytes of broiler chickens in response to secondary fungal metabolites ochratoxin A (OTA) and deoxynivalenol (DON) at concentrations of 0.001, 0.01, 0.1 and 1 μg/ml. The quantification of the cytokines was analysed at 24, 48 and 72 h after incubation with mycotoxins, using real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). The results obtained showed that OTA induced mRNA synthesis of IL-5 at concentrations 0.001, 0.1 and 1 μg/ml after 24 h of lymphocyte incubation, while at 48 h only the expression of the IL-5 cytokine at a concentration of 1 μg/ml (P<0.05) was detected. DON in a concentration of 1 μg/ml induced the expression of IL-5 in the lymphocytes only at 48 h post-incubation period (P<0.05). Regarding IFN-γ, gene expression was not observed in the lymphocytes of broiler chickens incubated with OTA and DON. The data obtained represent a profile of response mediated by T helper 2 cells to the exposure of broiler chicken immune cells to different concentrations of OTA and DON.

Tuberkulosis (TB) merupakan penyakit infeksi menular, disebabkan oleh Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Respons imun adaptif yangdiperantarai oleh limfosit T berperan sangat penting dalam menyingkirkan bakteri intraseluler. Hasilan sitokin IFN-γ merupakanmekanisme efektor utama dari limfosit T. Pengembangan vaksin yang efektif dalam melawan infeksi TB mempertimbangkan faktor yangmengatur hasilan IFN-γ. CFP-10 merupakan antigen yang disekresikan oleh Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Antigen ini dikenal sebagaikomponen vaksin potensial untuk TB. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah membandingkan respons imun seluler yaitu persentase limfosit T-CD3+yang mengekspresikan IFN-γ setelah dirangsang antigen CFP-10 di pasien TB paru kasus baru, TB laten dan orang sehat. Penelitianini menggunakan desain eksperimen murni di laboratorium secara in vitro pada kultur PBMC pasien TB paru kasus baru, TB latendan orang sehat. Subjek penelitian adalah 8 pasien TB paru kasus baru, 7 TB laten dan 7 orang sehat di RS Khusus Paru Surabaya.Pemeriksaan persentase limfosit T-CD3+ yang mengekspresikan IFN-γ dengan metode Flow cytometry (BD FACSCalibur). Hasil dianalisisdengan Kruskal-Wallis atau ANOVA satu arah. Rerata persentase limfosit T-CD3+ yang mengekspresikan IFN-γ di TB paru kasus barusetelah stimulasi antigen CFP-10 (4,36%) lebih tinggi daripada sebelum stimulasi (3,50%) (nilai P=0,015). Rerata persentase limfositT-CD3+ yang mengekspresikan IFN-γ di TB laten setelah stimulasi antigen CFP-10 (3,96%) lebih tinggi dibandingkan sebelum stimulasi(2,50%) tetapi tidak bermakna (nilai P=0,367). Rerata persentase limfosit T- CD3+ yang mengekspresikan IFN-γ di orang sehat setelahstimulasi (1,66%) lebih rendah daripada sebelum stimulasi (2,89%) tetapi tidak bermakna (nilai P=0,199). Perubahan persentaselimfosit T-CD3+ yang mengekspresikan IFN-γ setelah stimulasi antigen CFP-10 antarkelompok tidak berbeda bermakna (nilai P=0,143).Berdasarkan hasil telitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa terdapat peningkatan persentase limfosit T-CD3+ yang mengekspresikan IFN-γdi TB paru kasus baru setelah stimulasi antigen CFP-10. Hal ini menunjukkan limfosit T-CD3+ yang mengekspresikan IFN-γ berperandalam perlindungan terhadap infeksi TB paru.
