A1 - Zernecke, Alma T1 - Dendritic Cell Subset Distributions in the Aorta in Healthy and Atherosclerotic Mice JF - PLoS ONE N2 - Dendritic cells (DCs) can be sub-divided into various subsets that play specialized roles in priming of adaptive immune responses. Atherosclerosis is regarded as a chronic inflammatory disease of the vessel wall and DCs can be found in non-inflamed and diseased arteries. We here performed a systematic analyses of DCs subsets during atherogenesis. Our data indicate that distinct DC subsets can be localized in the vessel wall. In C57BL/6 and low density lipoprotein receptor-deficient (Ldlr−/−) mice, CD11c+ MHCII+ DCs could be discriminated into CD103− CD11b+F4/80+, CD11b+F4/80− and CD11b−F4/80− DCs and CD103+ CD11b−F4/80− DCs. Except for CD103− CD11b− F4/80− DCs, these subsets expanded in high fat diet-fed Ldlr−/− mice. Signal-regulatory protein (Sirp)-α was detected on aortic macrophages, CD11b+ DCs, and partially on CD103− CD11b− F4/80− but not on CD103+ DCs. Notably, in FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3-ligand-deficient (Flt3l−/−) mice, a specific loss of CD103+ DCs but also CD103− CD11b+ F4/80− DCs was evidenced. Aortic CD103+ and CD11b+ F4/80− CD103− DCs may thus belong to conventional rather than monocyte-derived DCs, given their dependence on Flt3L-signalling. CD64, postulated to distinguish macrophages from DCs, could not be detected on DC subsets under physiological conditions, but appeared in a fraction of CD103− CD11b+ F4/80− and CD11b+ F4/80+ cells in atherosclerotic Ldlr−/− mice. The emergence of CD64 expression in atherosclerosis may indicate that CD11b+ F4/80− DCs similar to CD11b+ F4/80+ DCs are at least in part derived from immigrated monocytes during atherosclerotic lesion formation. Our data advance our knowledge about the presence of distinct DC subsets and their accumulation characteristics in atherosclerosis, and may help to assist in future studies aiming at specific DC-based therapeutic strategies for the treatment of chronic vascular inflammation.

T1 - Reduced PICD in Monocytes Mounts Altered Neonate Immune Response to Candida albicans JF - PLoS ONE N2 - Background Invasive fungal infections with Candida albicans (C. albicans) occur frequently in extremely low birthweight (ELBW) infants and are associated with poor outcome. Phagocytosis of C.albicans initializes apoptosis in monocytes (phagocytosis induced cell death, PICD). PICD is reduced in neonatal cord blood monocytes (CBMO). Hypothesis Phagocytosis of C. albicans causes PICD which differs between neonatal monocytes (CBMO) and adult peripheral blood monocytes (PBMO) due to lower stimulation of TLR-mediated immune responses. Methods The ability to phagocytose C. albicans, expression of TLRs, the induction of apoptosis (assessment of sub-G1 and nick-strand breaks) were analyzed by FACS. TLR signalling was induced by agonists such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS), Pam3Cys, FSL-1 and Zymosan and blocked (neutralizing TLR2 antibodies and MYD88 inhibitor). Results Phagocytic indices of PBMO and CBMO were similar. Following stimulation with agonists and C. albicans induced up-regulation of TLR2 and consecutive phosphorylation of MAP kinase P38 and expression of TNF-α, which were stronger on PBMO compared to CBMO (p < 0.005). Downstream, TLR2 signalling initiated caspase-3-dependent PICD which was found reduced in CBMO (p < 0.05 vs PBMO). Conclusion Our data suggest direct involvement of TLR2-signalling in C. albicans-induced PICD in monocytes and an alteration of this pathway in CBMO.

A1 - Kunzmann, Steffen T1 - Impact of the New Generation Reconstituted Surfactant CHF5633 on Human CD4\(^+\) Lymphocytes JF - PLoS One N2 - Background Natural surfactant preparations, commonly isolated from porcine or bovine lungs, are used to treat respiratory distress syndrome in preterm infants. Besides biophysical effectiveness, several studies have documented additional immunomodulatory properties. Within the near future, synthetic surfactant preparations may be a promising alternative. CHF5633 is a new generation reconstituted synthetic surfactant preparation with defined composition, containing dipalmitoyl-phosphatidylcholine, palmitoyl-oleoyl-phosphatidylglycerol and synthetic analogs of surfactant protein (SP-) B and SP-C. While its biophysical effectiveness has been demonstrated in vitro and in vivo, possible immunomodulatory abilities are currently unknown. Aim The aim of the current study was to define a potential impact of CHF5633 and its single components on pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokine responses in human CD4\(^+\) lymphocytes. Methods Purified human CD4\(^+\) T cells were activated using anti CD3/CD28 antibodies and exposed to CHF5633, its components, or to the well-known animal-derived surfactant Poractant alfa (Curosurf®). Proliferative response and cell viability were assessed using flow cytometry and a methylthiazolyldiphenyltetrazolium bromide colorimetric assay. The mRNA expression of IFNγ, IL-2, IL-17A, IL-22, IL-4, and IL-10 was measured by quantitative PCR, while intracellular protein expression was assessed by means of flow cytometry. Results Neither CHF5633 nor any of its phospholipid components with or without SP-B or SP-C analogs had any influence on proliferative ability and viability of CD4\(^+\) lymphocytes under the given conditions. IFNγ, IL-2, IL-17A, IL-22, IL-4, and IL-10 mRNA as well as IFNγ, IL-2, IL-4 and IL-10 protein levels were unaffected in both non-activated and activated CD4+ lymphocytes after exposure to CHF5633 or its constituents compared to non-exposed controls. However, in comparison to Curosurf®, expression levels of anti-inflammatory IL-4 and IL-10 mRNA were significantly increased in CHF5633 exposed CD4\(^+\) lymphocytes. Conclusion For the first time, the immunomodulatory capacity of CHF5633 on CD4\(^+\) lymphocytes was evaluated. CHF5633 did not show any cytotoxicity on CD4\(^+\) cells. Moreover, our in vitro data indicate that CHF5633 does not exert unintended pro-inflammatory effects on non-activated and activated CD4+ T cells. As far as anti-inflammatory cytokines are concerned, it might lack an overall reductive ability in comparison to animal-derived surfactants, potentially leaving pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokine response in balance.

T1 - Effects of the New Generation Synthetic Reconstituted Surfactant CHF5633 on Pro- and Anti-Inflammatory Cytokine Expression in Native and LPS-Stimulated Adult CD14\(^{+}\) Monocytes JF - PLoS ONE N2 - Background Surfactant replacement therapy is the standard of care for the prevention and treatment of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome. New generation synthetic surfactants represent a promising alternative to animal-derived surfactants. CHF5633, a new generation reconstituted synthetic surfactant containing SP-B and SP-C analogs and two synthetic phospholipids has demonstrated biophysical effectiveness in vitro and in vivo. While several surfactant preparations have previously been ascribed immunomodulatory capacities, in vitro data on immunomodulation by CHF5633 are limited, so far. Our study aimed to investigate pro- and anti-inflammatory effects of CHF5633 on native and LPS-stimulated human adult monocytes. Methods Highly purified adult CD14\(^{+}\) cells, either native or simultaneously stimulated with LPS, were exposed to CHF5633, its components, or poractant alfa (Curosurf\(^{®}\)). Subsequent expression of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-8 and IL-10 mRNA was quantified by real-time quantitative PCR, corresponding intracellular cytokine synthesis was analyzed by flow cytometry. Potential effects on TLR2 and TLR4 mRNA and protein expression were monitored by qPCR and flow cytometry. Results Neither CHF5633 nor any of its components induced inflammation or apoptosis in native adult CD14\(^{+}\) monocytes. Moreover, LPS-induced pro-inflammatory responses were not aggravated by simultaneous exposure of monocytes to CHF5633 or its components. In LPS-stimulated monocytes, exposure to CHF5633 led to a significant decrease in TNF-α mRNA (0.57 ± 0.23-fold, p = 0.043 at 4h; 0.56 ± 0.27-fold, p = 0.042 at 14h). Reduction of LPS-induced IL-1β mRNA expression was not significant (0.73 ± 0.16, p = 0.17 at 4h). LPS-induced IL-8 and IL-10 mRNA and protein expression were unaffected by CHF5633. For all cytokines, the observed CHF5633 effects paralleled a Curosurf®-induced modulation of cytokine response. TLR2 and TLR4 mRNA and protein expression were not affected by CHF5633 and Curosurf®, neither in native nor in LPS-stimulated adult monocytes. Conclusion The new generation reconstituted synthetic surfactant CHF5633 was tested for potential immunomodulation on native and LPS-activated adult human monocytes. Our data confirm that CHF5633 does not exert unintended pro-inflammatory effects in both settings. On the contrary, CHF5633 significantly suppressed TNF-α mRNA expression in LPS-stimulated adult monocytes, indicating potential anti-inflammatory effects.

T1 - Imbalanced inflammatory responses in preterm and term cord blood monocytes and expansion of the CD14\(^+\)CD16\(^+\) subset upon toll-like receptor stimulation JF - International Journal of Molecular Sciences N2 - Developmentally regulated features of innate immunity are thought to place preterm and term infants at risk of infection and inflammation-related morbidity. Underlying mechanisms are incompletely understood. Differences in monocyte function including toll-like receptor (TLR) expression and signaling have been discussed. Some studies point to generally impaired TLR signaling, others to differences in individual pathways. In the present study, we assessed mRNA and protein expression of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines in preterm and term cord blood (CB) monocytes compared with adult controls stimulated ex vivo with Pam3CSK4, zymosan, polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid, lipopolysaccharide, flagellin, and CpG oligonucleotide, which activate the TLR1/2, TLR2/6, TLR3, TLR4, TLR5, and TLR9 pathways, respectively. In parallel, frequencies of monocyte subsets, stimulus-driven TLR expression, and phosphorylation of TLR-associated signaling molecules were analyzed. Independent of stimulus, pro-inflammatory responses of term CB monocytes equaled adult controls. The same held true for preterm CB monocytes—except for lower IL-1β levels. In contrast, CB monocytes released lower amounts of anti-inflammatory IL-10 and IL-1ra, resulting in higher ratios of pro-inflammatory to anti-inflammatory cytokines. Phosphorylation of p65, p38, and ERK1/2 correlated with adult controls. However, stimulated CB samples stood out with higher frequencies of intermediate monocytes (CD14\(^+\)CD16\(^+\)). Both pro-inflammatory net effect and expansion of the intermediate subset were most pronounced upon stimulation with Pam3CSK4 (TLR1/2), zymosan (TR2/6), and lipopolysaccharide (TLR4). Our data demonstrate robust pro-inflammatory and yet attenuated anti-inflammatory responses in preterm and term CB monocytes, along with imbalanced cytokine ratios. Intermediate monocytes, a subset ascribed pro-inflammatory features, might participate in this inflammatory state.

T1 - Ureaplasma Species Differentially Modulate Pro- and Anti-Inflammatory Cytokine Responses in Newborn and Adult Human Monocytes Pushing the State Toward Pro-Inflammation JF - Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology N2 - Background: Ureaplasma species have been associated with chorioamnionitis and preterm birth and have been implicated in the pathogenesis of neonatal short and long-term morbidity. However, being mostly commensal bacteria, controversy remains on the pro-inflammatory capacity of Ureaplasma. Discussions are ongoing on the incidence and impact of prenatal, perinatal, and postnatal infection. The present study addressed the impact of Ureaplasma isolates on monocyte-driven inflammation. Methods: Cord blood monocytes of term neonates and adult monocytes, either native or LPS-primed, were cultured with Ureaplasma urealyticum (U. urealyticum) serovar 8 (Uu8) and Ureaplasma parvum serovar 3 (Up3). Using qRT-PCR, cytokine flow cytometry, and multi-analyte immunoassay, we assessed mRNA and protein expression of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-8, IL-12p40, IL-10, and IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) as well as Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 and TLR4. Results: Uu8 and Up3 induced mRNA expression and protein release of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-8 in term neonatal and adult monocytes (p < 0.01 and p < 0.05). Intracellular protein expression of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-8 in Ureaplasma-stimulated cells paralleled those results. Ureaplasma-induced cytokine levels did not significantly differ from LPS-mediated levels except for lower intracellular IL-1β in adult monocytes (Uu8: p < 0.05). Remarkably, ureaplasmas did not induce IL-12p40 response and promoted lower amounts of anti-inflammatory IL-10 and IL-1ra than LPS, provoking a cytokine imbalance more in favor of pro-inflammation (IL-1β/IL-10, IL-8/IL-10 and IL-8/IL-1ra: p < 0.01, vs. LPS). In contrast to LPS, both isolates induced TLR2 mRNA in neonatal and adult cells (p < 0.001 and p < 0.05) and suppressed TLR4 mRNA in adult monocytes (p < 0.05). Upon co-stimulation, Uu8 and Up3 inhibited LPS-induced intracellular IL-1β (p < 0.001 and p < 0.05) and IL-8 in adult monocytes (p < 0.01), while LPS-induced neonatal cytokines were maintained or aggravated (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Our data demonstrate a considerable pro-inflammatory capacity of Ureaplasma isolates in human monocytes. Stimulating pro-inflammatory cytokine responses while hardly inducing immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines, ureaplasmas might push monocyte immune responses toward pro-inflammation. Inhibition of LPS-induced cytokines in adult monocytes in contrast to sustained inflammation in term neonatal monocytes indicates a differential modulation of host immune responses to a second stimulus. Modification of TLR2 and TLR4 expression may shape host susceptibility to inflammation.

A1 - Skerka, Christine T1 - Factor H binds to extracellular DNA traps released from human blood monocytes in response to Candida albicans JF - Frontiers in Immunology N2 - Upon systemic infection with human pathogenic yeast Candida albicans (C. albicans), human monocytes and polymorph nuclear neutrophilic granulocytes are the first immune cells to respond and come into contact with C. albicans. Monocytes exert immediate candidacidal activity and inhibit germination, mediate phagocytosis, and kill fungal cells. Here, we show that human monocytes spontaneously respond to C. albicans cells via phagocytosis, decondensation of nuclear DNA, and release of this decondensed DNA in the form of extracellular traps (called monocytic extracellular traps: MoETs). Both subtypes of monocytes (CD14\(^{++}\)CD16\(^−\)/CD14\(^+\)CD16\(^+\)) formed MoETs within the first hours upon contact with C. albicans. MoETs were characterized by the presence of citrullinated histone, myeloperoxidase, lactoferrin, and elastase. MoETs were also formed in response to Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, indicating a general reaction of monocytes to infectious microbes. MoET induction differs from extracellular trap formation in macrophages as MoETs are not triggered by simvastatin, an inhibitor of cholesterol synthesis and inducer of extracellular traps in macrophages. Extracellular traps from both monocytes and neutrophils activate complement and C3b is deposited. However, factor H (FH) binds via C3b to the extracellular DNA, mediates cofactor activity, and inhibits the induction of the inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1 beta in monocytes. Altogether, the results show that human monocytes release extracellular DNA traps in response to C. albicans and that these traps finally bind FH via C3b to presumably support clearance without further inflammation.

Researchers have been well aware of the fact that the macrophage pool during central nervous system (CNS) autoimmunity consists of a mixture of myeloid cells. Yet, separating these populations to define their unique contribution to disease pathology has long been challenging due to their similar marker expression. Sophisticated lineage tracing approaches as well as comprehensive transcriptome analysis have elevated our insight into macrophage biology to a new level enabling scientists to dissect the roles of resident (microglia and non-parenchymal macrophages) and infiltrating macrophages with unprecedented precision. To do so in an accurate way, researchers have to know their toolbox, which has been filled with diverse, discriminating approaches from decades of studying neuroinflammation in animal models. Every method has its own strengths and weaknesses, which will be addressed in this review. The focus will be on tools to manipulate and/or identify different macrophage subgroups within the injured murine CNS.

However, data are limited on the role of these cells in ischemic stroke in humans. We therefore aimed to characterize and compare peripheral IC subsets in patients with acute ischemic stroke/transient ischemic attack (AIS/TIA), chronic cerebrovascular disease (CCD) and healthy volunteers (HV). We conducted a case-control study of patients with AIS/TIA (n = 116) or CCD (n = 117), and HV (n = 104) who were enrolled at the University Hospital Würzburg from 2010 to 2013. We determined the expression and quantity of IC subsets in the three study groups and performed correlation analyses with demographic and clinical parameters. The quantity of several IC subsets differed between the AIS/TIA, CCD, and HV groups. Several clinical and demographic variables independently predicted the quantity of IC subsets in patients with AIS/TIA. No significant changes in the quantity of IC subsets occurred within the first three days after AIS/TIA. Overall, these findings strengthen the evidence for a pathophysiologic role of IC in human ischemic stroke and the potential use of IC-based biomarkers for the prediction of stroke risk. A comprehensive description of IC kinetics is crucial to enable the design of targeted treatment strategies.

The criteria to classify the multitude of subsets within the mononuclear phagocyte system are currently phenotype, ontogeny, transcription patterns, epigenetic adaptations, and function. More recently, ontogenetic, transcriptional, and proteomic research approaches uncovered major developmental differences between Flt3L-dependent conventional DCs as compared with Mphs and monocyte-derived DCs (MoDCs), the latter mainly generated in vitro from murine bone marrow-derived DCs (BM-DCs) or human CD14\(^{+}\) peripheral blood monocytes. Conversely, in vitro GM-CSF-dependent monocyte-derived Mphs largely resemble MoDCs whereas tissue-resident Mphs show a common embryonic origin from yolk sac and fetal liver with Langerhans cells (LCs). The novel ontogenetic findings opened discussions on the terminology of DCs versus Mphs. Here, we bring forward arguments to facilitate definitions of BM-DCs, MoDCs, and LCs. We propose a group model of terminology for all DC subsets that attempts to encompass both ontogeny and function.

Proinflammatory mechanisms are well described in the murine IAV infection model, but less is known about the mechanisms leading to the resolution of inflammation. Here, we analyzed the contribution of CD11b\(^{+}\)Ly6C\(^{++}\)Ly6G\(^{-}\) cells to this process. An accumulation of CD11b\(^{+}\)Ly6C\(^{++}\)Ly6G\(^{-}\) cells within the lungs was observed during the course of IAV infection. Phenotypic characterization of these CD11b\(^{+}\)Ly6C\(^{++}\)Ly6G\(^{-}\) cells by flow cytometry and RNA-Seq revealed an activated phenotype showing both pro- and anti-inflammatory features, including the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) by a fraction of cells in an IFN-γ-dependent manner. Moreover, CD11b\(^{+}\)Ly6C\(^{++}\)Ly6G\(^{-}\) cells isolated from lungs of IAV-infected animals displayed suppressive activity when tested in vitro, and iNOS inhibitors could abrogate this suppressive activity. Collectively, our data suggest that during IAV infection, CD11b\(^{+}\)Ly6C\(^{++}\)Ly6G\(^{-}\) cells acquire immunoregulatory function, which might contribute to the prevention of pathology during this life-threatening disease.

Über die Freisetzung weiterer proalgetischer Mediatoren tragen diese zur Aktivierung und Sensitivierung von Nozizeptoren und damit zur Schmerzentstehung bei. Das Monozyten-rekrutierende Chemokin CCL2 verursachte in Verhaltensexperimenten eine Hyperalgesie bei Ratten. Die Hyperalgesie war durch den Cox-2 Inhibitor Parecoxib vollständig reversibel. Daher wurde in dieser Arbeit die Rolle von Monozyten und Prostaglandinen in der Entstehung dieser Hyperalgesie untersucht.

Zudem wurde in vivo die Cox-2 Expression im Rückenmark und in der Rattenpfote nach CCL2 Injektion in die Pfote untersucht. N2 - One of the main components of inflammation is pain. In inflammation cytokines and chemokines are secreted and recruit leukocytes to the site of inflammation. Leukocytes release proalgesic mediators that activate and sensitize nociceptors and cause pain. Behavioral tests showed that the chemokine CCL2 (monocyte recruiting protein 2) causes hyperalgesia in rats. This hyperalgesia was blocked by parecoxib, a Cox-2 inhibitor. To further investigate the role of monocytes and prostaglandins in the development of hyperalgesia, Cox-2 expression and prostaglandin production were determined in vitro after stimulation of human monocytes and rat peritoneal macrophages with CCL2. In vivo, Cox-2 expression in spinal cord and paw tissue of rats was examined after injection of CCL2 into the paw.

Proalgesic mediators like reactive oxygen species (ROS) and downstream products elicit pain by stimulation of transient receptor potential (TRP) channels. The contribution of leukocyte subpopulations however is less clear. Local injection of neutrophilic chemokines elicits neutrophil recruitment but no hyperalgesia in rats. In meta-analyses the monocytic chemoattractant, CCL2 (monocyte chemoattractant protein-1; MCP-1), was identified as an important factor in the pathophysiology of human and animal pain. In this study, intraplantar injection of CCL2 elicited thermal and mechanical pain in Wistar but not in Dark Agouti (DA) rats, which lack p47phox, a part of the NADPH oxidase complex. Inflammatory hyperalgesia after complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) as well as capsaicin-induced hyperalgesia and capsaicin-induced current flow in dorsal root ganglion neurons in DA were comparable to Wistar rats. Macrophages from DA expressed lower levels of CCR2 and thereby migrated less towards CCL2 and formed limited amounts of ROS in vitro and 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) in the tissue in response to CCL2 compared to Wistar rats. Local adoptive transfer of peritoneal macrophages from Wistar but not from DA rats reconstituted CCL2-triggered hyperalgesia in leukocyte-depleted DA and Wistar rats. A pharmacological stimulator of ROS production (phytol) restored CCL2-induced hyperalgesia in vivo in DA rats. In Wistar rats, CCL2-induced hyperalgesia was completely blocked by superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase or tempol. Likewise, inhibition of NADPH oxidase by apocynin reduced CCL2-elicited hyperalgesia but not CFA-induced inflammatory hyperalgesia. In summary, we provide a link between CCL2, CCR2 expression on macrophages, NADPH oxidase, ROS and the development CCL2-triggered hyperalgesia, which is different from CFA-induced hyperalgesia. The study further supports the impact of CCL2 and ROS as potential targets in pain therapy.

Die Monozyten wurden durch Adhärenz angereichert und für sechs Tage in X-Medium mit den Cytokinen M-CSF und IL-3 und für weitere vier Tage in Y-Medium mit den Cytokinen HGF und EGF inkubiert. In dieser Arbeit wurde gezeigt, dass sich Insulin-positive Monozyten routine-mäßig aus peripheren Blutmonozyten gesunder Spender mittels Leukapharese gewinnen lassen. Frisch isolierte periphere Blutmonozyten waren vor ihrer Kultivierung negativ für Insulin und C-Peptid. Nach zehntägiger Kultur wurden 77±16% Insulin-positive und 49±30% C-Peptid-positive Monozyten nachgewiesen. Weiterhin exprimierten 60±4% der Zellen den Monozytenmarker CD14. Auch wurde gezeigt, dass die Kulturbedingungen die Ausbeute an Insulin-positiven Monozyten beeinflussen. Aus jeweils drei Millionen Insulin-positiven Monozyten wurde das Insulin isoliert und diabetischen Mäusen mit einem Blutzuckerspiegel von 300-600 mg/dL subkutan injiziert (n=8). Daraufhin sank der Blutzuckerspiegel um 51%±12% innerhalb einer Stunde. Auch Insulin-positive Monozyten, die diabetischen Mäusen subkutan injiziert wurden, waren in der Lage, den Blutzuckerspiegel bis zum Zeitpunkt Ihrer Abstoßung aktiv zu regulieren (n=4). In einem Pilotversuch wurde zudem gezeigt, dass transplantierte Insulin-positive Monozyten langfristig (> 100 Tage) den Blutzuckerspiegel einer diabetischen immuninkompetenten Maus regulieren. In dieser Arbeit wurde somit erfolgreich gezeigt, dass in vitro modifizierte Monozyten biologisch aktives Insulin enthalten. N2 - The concept of cell replacement in diabetes mellitus type 1 is to transplant insulin-producing cells into the patient, where these cells should compensate for the lost function of patient's own destroyed beta cells. Insulin-producing beta cells developed from embryonic stem cells, but adult stem cells that are part of any tissue, may also have the potential to different into insulin-producing cells. Recent data indicates that circulating monocytes, known to have the capacity to differentiate into a variety of phagocytes, including macrophages and dendritic cells, are more multipotential than previously thought. They also have the potential to differentiate into a variety of cell types, including insulin-producing cells. In this study the function of monocyte-derived insulin-producing cells was characterised in vitro and in vivo. Blood monocytes are easily harvested from the peripheral blood by leucocyteapheresis. Monocytes of twelve healthy donors between 23 and 57 years of age were analysed in detail. For this purpose, monocytes were enriched by adherence and cultured in X-medium containing the cytokines M-CSF and IL-3 for six days and then in Y-medium containing HGF and EGF for four days. Insulin and c-peptide were detected by immunohistochemistry. Freshly isolated peripheral blood monocytes were negative for insulin and c-peptide. In contrast, freshly isolated peripheral blood monocytes cultured for ten days stained positive for insulin and c-peptide: 77±16 percent of the cells were positive for insulin and 49±30 percent for c-peptide. In addition, these cultured cells expressed the monocyte marker CD14. Different culture conditions were tested, but in the late phase of culture macrophages always dominated the population. Insulin of three million insulin-positive monocytes was isolated and injected subcutaneously into diabetic mice with a blood glucose level between 300-600 mg/dL (16.7-33.3 mmol/L) (n=8). Blood glucose levels were lowered by 51±12% within one hour. Even living insulin-positive monocytes subcutaneously transplanted into diabetic mice were able to regulate blood glucose levels into "normal" regions until their rejection (n=4). In a first attempt we could show that insulin positive monocytes transplanted into immunocompromised diabetic mice have the ability to regulate blood glucose levels permanently. In vitro modified peripheral blood monocytes appear to be a potential source of insulin-producing cells and an alternative cell source for stem cells. However, the induction of insulin biosynthesis in surrogate beta cells is not the only goal. These cells must secrete insulin in response to physiological signals, e.g. increased blood glucose levels. The biological activity of monocyte insulin was successfully proved in diabetic mice and the long-term results in immunocompromised diabetic mice underline the potential of transplanted in vitro modified monocytes to regulate blood glucose levels in a physiological way. However, further investigations are necessary to estimate the possible potential of in vitro modified monocytes for cell replacement strategies.

We conducted a two-stage case control study including 911 high-risk patients diagnosed with hematological malignancies that were ascertained through the aspBIOmics consortium. The meta-analysis of the discovery and replication populations revealed that carriers of the TNFSF4\(_{rs7526628T/T}\) genotype had a significantly increased risk of developing IA (p = 0.00022). We also found that carriers of the TNFSF4\(_{rs7526628T}\) allele showed decreased serum levels of TNFSF14 protein (p = 0.0027), and that their macrophages had a decreased fungicidal activity (p = 0.048). In addition, we observed that each copy of the MAPKAPK2\(_{rs12137965G}\) allele increased the risk of IA by 60% (p = 0.0017), whereas each copy of the MAPKAPK2\(_{rs17013271T}\) allele was estimated to decrease the risk of developing the disease (p = 0.0029). Mechanistically, we found that carriers of the risk MAPKAPK2\(_{rs12137965G}\) allele showed increased numbers of CD38+IgM-IgD- plasmablasts in blood (p = 0.00086), whereas those harboring two copies of the allele had decreased serum concentrations of thymic stromal lymphopoietin (p = 0.00097). Finally, we also found that carriers of the protective MAPKAPK2\(_{rs17013271T}\) allele had decreased numbers of CD27-IgM-IgD- B cells (p = 0.00087) and significantly lower numbers of CD14+ and CD14+CD16- cells (p = 0.00018 and 0.00023). Altogether, these results suggest a role of the TNFSF4 and MAPKAPK2 genes in determining IA risk.

Bislang waren jedoch noch keine Mediatoren charakterisiert worden, die immer unter Entzündungsbedingungen vorhanden sind. In den eigenen Untersuchungen des Shedding von CD163 konnten für die Generierung des sCD163 neue endogene Aktivatoren identifiziert werden. Sowohl reaktive Sauerstoffspezies, wie Wasserstoffperoxid oder Stickstoffmonoxid, als auch das Produkt von endogenen Oxidationsreaktionen mit reaktiven Sauerstoffspezies 8-iso Prostaglandin F2a erwiesen sich als potente Aktivatoren des Shedding von CD163. Neben den bekannten physiologischen Funktionen des 8-iso Prostaglandin F2a konnte erstmals eine neue Funktion bei Entzündungen definiert werden. Dieser Effekt wurde spezifisch durch 8-iso Prostaglandin F2a hervorgerufen, da das isomere Prostaglandin F2a unter gleichen Bedingungen keinen Einfluss auf das Shedding von CD163 ausübte. Das Immunsuppressivum Cyclosporin A konnte ebenfalls als Induktor des Shedding von CD163 ermittelt werden. Damit konnte zusätzlich zur bekannten immunmodulatorischen Wirkung des Cyclosporin A eine weitere antiinflammatorische Wirkung über Monocyten/Macrophagen aufgezeigt werden. Durch Untersuchungen der Inhibierung des Shedding von CD163 konnten Gemeinsamkeiten bezüglich der in die sCD163-Generierung involvierten Mediatoren dargestellt werden. Obwohl die untersuchten Verbindungen wahrscheinlich über unterschiedliche Signalwege das Shedding von CD163 induzieren, waren die Anwesenheit von reaktiven Sauerstoffspezies und intrazellulärem Calcium und die Beteiligung einer TIMP-3-sensitiven Metalloproteinase an diesem Prozess essentiell. Bei einem Vergleich zwischen dem Shedding von CD163 und Tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-a) ergaben sich Gemeinsamkeiten durch die Induktion des Shedding beider Verbindungen durch 8-iso Prostaglandin F2a und in sehr viel geringerem Maße durch Wasserstoffperoxid. Im Gegensatz dazu waren deutliche Unterschiede in dem Ausmaß der induzierten Stimulation des Shedding durch Stickstoffmonoxid, Prostaglandin F2a und Cyclosporin A zu erkennen. Im Hinblick auf die entgegengesetzten Wirkungen von sCD163 als antiinflammatorisch wirkende Verbindung und TNF-a als proinflammatorisches Cytokin, konnte dargestellt werden, dass die Freisetzung durch unterschiedliche Aktivatoren erfolgt. Nach Bestimmung der Konzentrationen von sCD163 und 8-iso PGF2a in bronchoalveolärer Lavage-Flüssigkeit von Patienten mit Cystischer Fibrose konnten keine abschließende Aussagen über die Eignung beider Parameter als biologische Marker für chronische Entzündungen der Lunge bei diesen Patienten getroffen werden. Weiterführend zu der Kenntnis, dass sCD163 die antiinflammatorische Wirkung über eine Interaktion des Proteins mit humanen T-Lymphocyten und nachfolgender Hemmung der Proliferation dieser Zellen ausübt, wurde diese Wechselwirkung genauer untersucht. In quantitativen Bestimmungen des sCD163 in isolierten T-Lymphocyten verschiedener Spender konnte erstmals gezeigt werden, dass sCD163 zu einem Teil konstitutiv in die T-Lymphocyten aufgenommen wird und dass diese Aufnahme durch proinflammatorische Aktivierung der T-Lymphocyten stark gesteigert werden kann. Durch fluoreszenzmikroskopische Aufnahmen unstimulierter T-Lymphocyten konnte die intrazelluläre Lokalisation des sCD163 visualisiert werden. Nach Aktivierung der Zellen mit einem proinflammatorischen Reiz fand innerhalb der Zellen eine Translokalisation des sCD163 aus dem cytoplasmatischen Bereich zur Zellmembran statt. Damit konnte erstmals gezeigt werden, dass abhängig vom Aktivierungsstatus der T-Lymphocyten eine Umverteilung des sCD163 innerhalb der Zellen erfolgt. Eine quantitative Bestimmung des sCD163 und seines Bindungspartners in T-Lymphocyten nichtmuskuläres Myosin Typ IIA gelang mittels eines neu entwickeltem ELISA, der spezifisch sCD163 und Myosin ausschließlich im Komplex erfasst. Damit konnte durch die in dieser Arbeit beschriebenen Untersuchungen ein grundlegender Beitrag zur Charakterisierung der Regulation der Proteinexpression und des Shedding von CD163 in humanen Monocyten sowie der Interaktion des sCD163 mit T-Lymphocyten geleistet werden. N2 - In the present thesis, cellular regulation of the monocyte/macrophage specific membrane protein CD163 was investigated and clinical aspects of the soluble form of CD163 (sCD163) were discussed. sCD163 is shed from the cell surface in vivo upon an inflammatory stimulus. So far no mediators had been characterized that are persistently present under inflammatory conditions. In the present investigation of the shedding of CD163, new endogenous activators for the generation of sCD163 were successfully identified. Both reactive oxygen species, as hydrogen peroxide or nitric monoxide, and the product of endogenous oxidative reactions 8-iso prostaglandin F2a turned out to be potent activators of the shedding of CD163. In addition to the known physiological functions of 8-iso prostaglandin F2a a novel function of this compound in inflammation was defined. This effect was specifically generated by 8-iso prostaglandin F2a as prostaglandin F2a did not influence the shedding of CD163 under the same conditions. The immunosuppressive drug cyclosporine A was also established as an inductor of the shedding of CD163. Accordingly, another anti-inflammatory effect via monocytes/macrophages was pointed out in addition to the well known immunomodulatory effects of cyclosporine A. Investigations of the inhibition of shedding of CD163 led to the identification of key mediators involved in the generation of sCD163. Even though the tested compounds may induce shedding via different signal transduction pathways, the presence of reactive oxygen species and intracellular calcium and the involvement of a TIMP-3 sensitive metalloproteinase were essential in this process. The tested activators revealed different abilities for inducing the formation of reactive oxygen species. Comparing shedding of CD163 and tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-a), similarities in induced shedding by 8-iso prostaglandin F2a and to a lower extend by hydrogen peroxide were seen. In contrast, significant differences were recognized in the extent of shedding induced via stimulation by nitric oxide, prostaglandin F2a, and cyclosporine A. With regard to the opposite effects of sCD163 as an anti-inflammatory compound and TNF-a as a pro-inflammatory cytokine it was demonstrated that shedding occurred via induction by different activators. The determination of concentrations of sCD163 and 8-iso prostaglandin F2a in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of patients with cystic fibrosis allowed no conclusive statement about the suitability of both parameters as marker for chronic inflammation. In extension to earlier insights in the anti-inflammatory effects of sCD163 via interaction of the protein with human T-lymphocytes and subsequent inhibition of the proliferation of these cells these interactions were analyzed in detail. Quantifications of sCD163 in isolated T-lymphocytes from different donors revealed for the first time that sCD163 is constitutively taken up into T-lymphocytes and that this process can significantly be enhanced by pro-inflammatory activation of T-lymphocytes. The intracellular localization of sCD163 was visualized by fluorescence microscopy of T-lymphocytes. Upon activation of the cells by a pro-inflammatory stimulus a translocalization of sCD163 was observed within the cells from the cytoplasmatic region to the cell membrane. Thus, it was shown for the first time that an activation dependent translocalization of sCD163 occurs within the T-lymphocytes. The quantitative determination of sCD163 and non-muscular myosin type IIA as its intracellular binding partner in T-lymphocytes was successful using a newly developed ELISA that detects specifically sCD163 and myosin as a complex. To conclude, the investigations described in this thesis contributed substantially to the understanding of the regulation of the protein expression and shedding of CD163 in human monocytes and of the interaction of sCD163 with T-lymphocytes.
