Macrophages are known to possess suppressor activities in immune responses. To determine the effects of GM-CSF and M-CSF on the expression of macrophage suppressor activities, monocyte-derived macrophages cultured with GM-CSF (GM-Mphis) were compared with those cultured with M-CSF (M-Mphis) for antigen-specific proliferation and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) production by lymphocytes. Both GM-Mphis and M-Mphis equally suppressed lymphocyte proliferation, but only M-Mphis suppressed IFN-gamma production in response to purified protein derivative (PPD). M-Mphis, but not GM-Mphis, released IL-10 not only in the course of macrophage differentiation but also in response to PPD after maturation to macrophages. From the results that (i) exogenous IL-10 suppressed IFN-gamma production, but not proliferation of lymphocytes, and that (ii) neutralizing antibody to IL-10 reversed suppressor activities of M-Mphis on IFN-gamma production, but not lymphocyte proliferation, it appeared that IL-10 was the major factor responsible for suppression of IFN-gamma production. Thus, these results suggest that only M-CSF augments IL-10-dependent suppressor activity of macrophages on IFN-gamma production and that both GM-CSF and M-CSF induce IL-10-independent macrophage suppressor activity on lymphocyte proliferation.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007371 Interferon-gamma The major interferon produced by mitogenically or antigenically stimulated LYMPHOCYTES. It is structurally different from TYPE I INTERFERON and its major activity is immunoregulation. It has been implicated in the expression of CLASS II HISTOCOMPATIBILITY ANTIGENS in cells that do not normally produce them, leading to AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES. Interferon Type II,Interferon, Immune,gamma-Interferon,Interferon, gamma,Type II Interferon,Immune Interferon,Interferon, Type II
D008213 Lymphocyte Activation Morphologic alteration of small B LYMPHOCYTES or T LYMPHOCYTES in culture into large blast-like cells able to synthesize DNA and RNA and to divide mitotically. It is induced by INTERLEUKINS; MITOGENS such as PHYTOHEMAGGLUTININS, and by specific ANTIGENS. It may also occur in vivo as in GRAFT REJECTION.

D008264 Macrophages The relatively long-lived phagocytic cell of mammalian tissues that are derived from blood MONOCYTES. Main types are PERITONEAL MACROPHAGES; ALVEOLAR MACROPHAGES; HISTIOCYTES; KUPFFER CELLS of the liver; and OSTEOCLASTS. They may further differentiate within chronic inflammatory lesions to EPITHELIOID CELLS or may fuse to form FOREIGN BODY GIANT CELLS or LANGHANS GIANT CELLS.

D016173 Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor A mononuclear phagocyte colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) synthesized by mesenchymal cells. The compound stimulates the survival, proliferation, and differentiation of hematopoietic cells of the monocyte-macrophage series. M-CSF is a disulfide-bonded glycoprotein dimer with a MW of 70 kDa. It binds to a specific high affinity receptor (RECEPTOR, MACROPHAGE COLONY-STIMULATING FACTOR).

D016178 Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor An acidic glycoprotein of MW 23 kDa with internal disulfide bonds. The protein is produced in response to a number of inflammatory mediators by mesenchymal cells present in the hemopoietic environment and at peripheral sites of inflammation. GM-CSF is able to stimulate the production of neutrophilic granulocytes, macrophages, and mixed granulocyte-macrophage colonies from bone marrow cells and can stimulate the formation of eosinophil colonies from fetal liver progenitor cells. GM-CSF can also stimulate some functional activities in mature granulocytes and macrophages.

D016753 Interleukin-10 A cytokine produced by a variety of cell types, including T-LYMPHOCYTES; MONOCYTES; DENDRITIC CELLS; and EPITHELIAL CELLS that exerts a variety of effects on immunoregulation and INFLAMMATION. Interleukin-10 combines with itself to form a homodimeric molecule that is the biologically active form of the protein. IL-10,CSIF-10,Cytokine Synthesis Inhibitory Factor,IL10,Interleukin 10
