Secretion of cytokines by monocytes has been implicated in the pathogenesis of dialysis-related morbidity. Cytokine generation is presumed to take place in two steps: induction of mRNA transcription for cytokines by C5a and direct membrane contact, followed by lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced translation of mRNA (priming/second signal theory, Kidney Int 37: 85-93, 1990). However, the in vitro conditions on which this theory was based differed markedly from clinical dialysis. To test this postulate for routine hemodialysis, 13 patients were studied cross-over with high-flux cuprammonium (CU), cellulose triacetate (CTA), and polysulfon dialyzers, using standard bicarbonate dialysate, as well as CTA with filtered dialysate (fCTA). Besides leukocytes, C3a, C5a, and limulus amebocyte lysate reactivity, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, interleukin (IL)-1 beta, IL-6, IL-1RA, soluble TNF receptors, and IL-1 beta mRNA were assessed. Only during dialysis with CU did C5a increase significantly (561 to 8185 ng/ml, P < 0.001). Endotoxin content of standard bicarbonate was higher than filtered dialysate (median, 24.3 and < 5 pg/ml respectively, P = 0.002), whereas limulus amebocyte lysate reactivity was not detected in the blood, except in the case of CU. TNF-alpha levels were elevated before, and remained stable during, dialysis, independent of the modality used. IL-1 beta, IL-6, and mRNA coding for IL-1 beta could not be demonstrated. IL-1RA and soluble TNF receptors (p55/p75) were markedly elevated compared with normal control subjects, but showed no differences between fCTA and CTA. To summarize, no evidence was found for production and release of cytokines by monocytes during clinical high-flux bicarbonate hemodialysis, neither with complement-activating membranes nor with unfiltered dialysate. Therefore, this study sheds some doubt on the relevance of the "priming/second signal" theory for clinical practice. The data presented suggest that reluctance to prescribe the use of high-flux dialyzers, as advocated in many reports, may not be warranted.

Abstract In the present study, we used a cloned derivative, KYM-1D4, of the human rhabdomyosarcoma cell line, KYM-1, known to express high numbers of the two tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptors, TR60 and TR80, and to be highly sensitive to TNF alpha-mediated cytotoxicity/antiproliferation, to investigate the role of TR60 and TR80 in protein phosphorylation. Using permeabilized KYM-1D4 cells, it was found that TNF alpha strongly induced phosphorylation of proteins of molecular weight 80, 65, 58, 42, and 30 kD. Addition of a monoclonal antibody (MoAb) against TR60 was shown to induce cytotoxicity/antiproliferation in KYM-1D4 cells and the same pattern of protein phosphorylation as TNF alpha, whereas addition of an MoAb against TR80 was both noncytotoxic and ineffective in inducing protein phosphorylation. In contrast, in a highly TNF alpha-resistant KYM-1- derived cell line, 37B8R, no protein phosphorylation was induced with either TNF alpha or the agonistic anti-TR60 MoAb. However, when 37B8R was allowed to revert to partial TNF sensitivity by culture in the absence of TNF alpha, the resultant cell line, 37B8S, was found to regain inducibility of protein phosphorylation by TNF alpha. These results indicate that expression of functional TR60 in KYM-1-related cell lines is principally involved in TNF-mediated cytotoxicity/antiproliferation and is necessary for the induction of protein phosphorylation. Nevertheless, the latter, although apparently strongly associated with cytotoxicity, was probably involved in protective mechanisms because protein kinase C inhibitors that inhibited TNF alpha and anti-TR60-induced phosphorylation increased the cytotoxic/antiproliferative response to these mediators.

Abstract Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) has previously been reported to have both inhibitory and stimulatory effects on hematopoietic progenitor cells. Specifically, TNF alpha has been proposed to stimulate early hematopoiesis in humans. In the present study we show that TNF alpha, in a dose-dependent fashion, can potently inhibit the growth of primitive high proliferative potential colony-forming cells (HPP-CFCs) stimulated by multiple cytokine combinations. Using agonistic antibodies to the p55 and p75 TNF receptors or TNF alpha mutants specific for either of the two TNF receptors, we show that both receptors can mediate this inhibition. In contrast, the potent stimulation of interleukin-3 (IL-3) plus granulocyte-macrophage colony- stimulating factor (GM-CSF) induced HPP-CFC colony formation observed at low concentrations of TNF alpha (2 ng/mL) was only a p55-mediated event. Moreover, the stimulatory effects of TNF alpha on GM-CSF or IL-3- induced colony formation, as well as the inhibition of G-CSF-induced colony growth, were also exclusively signaled through the p55 TNF receptor. Taken together, our results suggest that the inhibitory effects of TNF alpha on primitive bone marrow progenitor cells are mediated through both p55 and p75 TNF receptors, whereas the p55 receptor exclusively mediates the bidirectional effects on more mature, single factor-responsive bone marrow progenitor cells as well as stimulation of IL-3 plus GM-CSF-induced HPP-CFC colony growth.

Abstract Recombinant tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) is a cytokine that induces proliferation of neoplastic B cells from patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). To gain insight into the mechanisms involved in regulating TNF responsiveness, we have examined TNF receptor expression on neoplastic B-CLL cells. We have demonstrated that freshly isolated neoplastic B cells from patients with CLL did not express TNF receptors. After 1 day of incubation in culture medium, TNF receptors were detectable in the range of 540 to 1,500/cell. Kinetic experiments revealed that receptor expression was half-maximal after 3 hours of culturing and required de novo protein synthesis. The Scatchard plots of TNF-alpha binding indicated a single set of high- affinity TNF receptors with a dissociation constant of 70 pmol/L. TNF receptor expression in vitro was found in all examined cases. All cytokines tested, with the exception of IL-2, did not influence the expression of TNF receptors. The TNF receptor expression is enhanced in B-CLL cells cultured in the presence of interleukin-2 when compared with the receptor expression of cells cultured in medium alone. Our data suggest that neoplastic B-CLL cells in patients with stable disease do not express TNF receptors in vivo and that an unknown mechanism suppressing TNF receptor expression in vivo may play a role in growth regulation of neoplastic B cells.
