    beta-cell specific overexpression of suppressor of cytokine signalling-3 does not protect against multiple low dose streptozotocin induced type 1 diabetes in mice2011Ingår i: Immunology Letters, ISSN 0165-2478, E-ISSN 1879-0542, Vol. 136, nr 1, s. 74-79Artikel i tidskrift (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    We investigated the impact of beta-cell specific overexpression of suppressor of cytokine signalling-3 (SOCS-3) on the development of multiple low dose streptozotocin (MLDSTZ) induced Type 1 diabetes and the possible mechanisms involved. MLDSTZ treatment was administered to RIP-SOCS-3 transgenic and wild-type (wt) mice and progression of hyperglycemia monitored. Isolated islets from both strains were exposed to human IL-1 beta (25 U/ml) or a combination of human IL-1 beta (25 U/ml) and murine IFN-gamma (1000 U/ml) for 24h or 48h and we investigated the expression of IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) mRNA in islet cells and secretion of IL-1Ra into culture medium. MLDSTZ treatment caused gradual hyperglycemia both in the wt mice and in the transgenic mice with the latter tending to be more sensitive. In vitro experiments on wt and transgenic islets did not reveal any differences in sensitivity to damaging effects of STZ. Exposure of wt islets to 1L-1 beta or IL-1 beta + IFN-gamma seemed to lead to a failing IL-1Ra response from SOCS-3 transgenic islets. It could be that an increased expression of a possible protective molecule against beta-cell destruction may lead to a dampered response of another putative protective molecule. This may have counteracted a protective effect against MLDSTZ in SOCS-3 transgenic mice.

    C3d-mediated negative and positive signals on the proliferation of human B cells separated from blood.1990Ingår i: Immunology Letters, ISSN 0165-2478, E-ISSN 1879-0542, Vol. 26, nr 1, s. 51-58Artikel i tidskrift (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    Soluble C3d applied to human blood-derived B lymphocytes inhibited anti-mu, T cell-produced growth factor, and EBV-induced DNA synthesis in serum-free culture. C3d added to the B cell cultures 1 and 2 days after the stimulus, still exerted inhibition, though with gradually diminishing efficiency. C3d, fixed on zymosan or attached to the culture wells, induced [3H]thymidine incorporation of the B cells in serum-free medium. The concentration of C3d used to coat the wells was critical, with optimal stimulatory effect of 8.3 micrograms/ml. These C3d molecules were shown to be denatured. Our results are in line with earlier data on B cells derived from mouse spleen and human tonsils showing that depending on the way of presentation and its amounts, the natural ligand of CR2 can exert negative or positive signals. Moreover, we demonstrate that C3d can inhibit even the proliferative stimulus of EBV.

    Dysregulated Fc receptor function in active rheumatoid arthritis2014Ingår i: Immunology Letters, ISSN 0165-2478, E-ISSN 1879-0542, Vol. 162, nr 1 Pt A, s. 200-206Artikel i tidskrift (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    Given the critical role of Fc gamma receptors (FcgammaR) as primary targets for autoantibody-mediated effects an important issue is how the FcgammaR pathway is affected in autoimmune disorders. Here we investigated the FcgammaR function in monocytes from rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients in relation to immunoglobulin levels and disease activity. Peripheral blood was obtained from 30 RA patients with clinical acute joint synovitis (active RA), 28 RA patients with no clinical signs of acute joint synovitis (non-active RA) and 34 healthy controls. Prior the functional studies the monocytes were characterized of their FcgammaRI (CD64), II (CD32), IIb (CD32b) and III (CD16) expression as well as their cell surface bound IgG. The monocytic FcgammaR function was assessed by binding of human IgG1 and IgG3 immune complexes (IC) and TNF secretion in vitro. IgG anti-citrullinated peptide antibodies (ACPA) were analyzed in the plasma. We found that monocytes from active RA patients had increased levels of FcgammaRI, II and cell surface IgG concurrently with impaired FcgammaR function. This was evident by reduced IgG1-IC binding and decreased TNF secretion in response to IgG3-IC. In contrast, monocytes from non-active RA patients displayed a normal FcgammaR function and had increased FcgammaRIIb expression together with elevated FcgammaRI, II and cell surface IgG. The ACPA levels did not differ in active and non-active RA patients but correlated with the monocytic FcgammaRIII expression in the patients. In conclusion, active RA patients display a dysregulated FcgammaR function that may represent a novel phenotypic and likely pathogenetic marker for active RA. A disease and FcgammaR function controlling effect is suggested by the increased inhibitory FcgammaRIIb in non-active RA.

    Mechanisms of TGF-beta signaling in regulation of cell growth and differentiation2002Ingår i: Immunology Letters, ISSN 0165-2478, E-ISSN 1879-0542, Vol. 82, nr 1-2, s. 85-91Artikel, forskningsöversikt (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) is a secreted protein that regulates proliferation, differentiation and death of various cell types. All immune cell lineages, including B, T and dendritic cells as well as macrophages, secrete TGF-beta, which negatively regulates their proliferation, differentiation and activation by other cytokines. Thus, TGF-beta is a potent immunosuppressor and perturbation of TGF-beta signaling is linked to autoimmunity, inflammation and cancer. Regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation by TGF-beta is a topic of great basic and clinical importance. We summarize our work on the growth inhibitory pathway downstream of TGF-beta, which is triggered by receptor serine/threonine kinases at the cell surface and downstream effectors of the Smad family. Activated Smads regulate transcription of target genes, including cell cycle inhibitors such as p21, which mediate the anti-proliferative response and partially explain the tumor suppressive action of the TGF-beta pathway. We have described a molecular mechanism of regulation of the p21 gene by Smads and transcription factor Sp1. At late stages of tumor progression, TGF-beta promotes tumorigenesis via suppression of the immune system and changes in cell differentiation of epithelial tumor cells, a phenomenon termed epithelial to mesenchymal transdifferentiation (EMT). We review our work on the role of the Smad pathway in controlling EMT. In conclusion, the molecular pathways that describe the anti-proliferative and transdifferentiating effects of TGF-beta in epithelial cells have been uncovered to great molecular detail; a future challenge will be to test their generality in other systems, including the immune system.

    SDS denaturation of complement factor C3 as a model for allosteric modifications occurring during C3b binding: demonstration of a profound conformational change by means of circular dichroism and quantitative immunoprecipitation.1986Ingår i: Immunology Letters, ISSN 0165-2478, E-ISSN 1879-0542, Vol. 13, nr 1-2, s. 11-14Artikel i tidskrift (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    The antigenic expression of bound but not fluid-phase C3b closely resembles that of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) denatured C3. For this reason, denatured C3 has been used in this study as a model to characterize the conformational changes associated with bound C3b. It was shown in circular dichroism in the far UV spectrum that profound changes in the secondary structure occurred in denatured C3. Furthermore, quantitation by immunoprecipitation of the previously observed antigenic changes during denaturation demonstrated that C3 lost 2/3 of the antigens associated with native C3 whereas 1/3 were stable. The lost antigens were completely replaced by antigens that are specific for denatured and bound C3. We postulate that the binding of C3b is accompanied by a profound conformational change distinctive of that observed in fluid-phase C3b.

    Ligands of CR2 do not interfere with C3 fragment fixation or enhanced NK sensitivity of Raji cells treated with human serum.1989Ingår i: Immunology Letters, ISSN 0165-2478, E-ISSN 1879-0542, Vol. 21, nr 4, s. 303-306Artikel i tidskrift (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    Raji cells activate the alternative complement pathway (ACP) and fix C3 fragments when incubated in human serum (HS). Earlier experiments have shown that CR2 molecules are involved in this phenomenon and the opsonized cells have elevated sensitivity to the lytic effect of CR3-bearing NK cells. We show here that Raji cells treated with CR2 site-specific ligands, (C3d, OKB-7 and HB-5 mAbs, and a synthetic peptide which binds to CR2) generated and bound C3 fragments after exposure to HS. The elevated lytic sensitivity of HS-treated cells was not altered by the presence of the various CR2 ligands. Thus, the membrane-bound C3 fragments are not fixed at the C3dg receptor binding site.
