OBJECTIVE To explore the morphologic and phenotypic changes of monocytess in response to the stimulation of IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha and IFN-alpha. METHODS Newly isolated monocytes from human PBMCs were treated with IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha or IFN-alpha. The phenotypic growth of monocytes with or without stimulation was observed by microscope. The surface expression of CD1a, CD14, CD80, CD83, CD86, and HLA-DR on the monocytes was assayed by flow cytometry. RESULTS After IFN-gamma stimulation, monocytes displayed the shape of fusiform or polygon and were more likely to adhere and cluster to form the distinct structure as "cell islet". IFN-gamma; also induced or up-regulated the surface expression of CD80, CD83, CD86, and HLA-DR on the monocytes and down-regulated the CD14 expression. IFN-gamma even induced the CD1a expression and changed the monocytes phenotype from CD14(+)CD1a(-)CD83(-) to CD14(+)CD1a(+)CD83(+) after stimulated for 5 days. Cytokines TNF-alpha and IFN-alpha; have the different impacts on monocytes from IFN-gamma. CONCLUSIONS IFN-gamma have the immunoregulatory function of making monocytes differentiate to untypical mature dendritic cells (DC).

D007136 Immunoglobulins Multi-subunit proteins which function in IMMUNITY. They are produced by B LYMPHOCYTES from the IMMUNOGLOBULIN GENES. They are comprised of two heavy (IMMUNOGLOBULIN HEAVY CHAINS) and two light chains (IMMUNOGLOBULIN LIGHT CHAINS) with additional ancillary polypeptide chains depending on their isoforms. The variety of isoforms include monomeric or polymeric forms, and transmembrane forms (B-CELL ANTIGEN RECEPTORS) or secreted forms (ANTIBODIES). They are divided by the amino acid sequence of their heavy chains into five classes (IMMUNOGLOBULIN A; IMMUNOGLOBULIN D; IMMUNOGLOBULIN E; IMMUNOGLOBULIN G; IMMUNOGLOBULIN M) and various subclasses.

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.

D007963 Leukocytes, Mononuclear Mature LYMPHOCYTES and MONOCYTES transported by the blood to the body's extravascular space. They are morphologically distinguishable from mature granulocytic leukocytes by their large, non-lobed nuclei and lack of coarse, heavily stained cytoplasmic granules.

D003713 Dendritic Cells Specialized cells of the hematopoietic system that have branch-like extensions. They are found throughout the lymphatic system, and in non-lymphoid tissues such as SKIN and the epithelia of the intestinal, respiratory, and reproductive tracts. They trap and process ANTIGENS, and present them to T-CELLS, thereby stimulating CELL-MEDIATED IMMUNITY. They are different from the non-hematopoietic FOLLICULAR DENDRITIC CELLS, which have a similar morphology and immune system function, but with respect to humoral immunity (ANTIBODY PRODUCTION).

D005434 Flow Cytometry Technique using an instrument system for making, processing, and displaying one or more measurements on individual cells obtained from a cell suspension. Cells are usually stained with one or more fluorescent dyes specific to cell components of interest, e.g., DNA, and fluorescence of each cell is measured as it rapidly transverses the excitation beam (laser or mercury arc lamp). Fluorescence provides a quantitative measure of various biochemical and biophysical properties of the cell, as well as a basis for cell sorting. Other measurable optical parameters include light absorption and light scattering, the latter being applicable to the measurement of cell size, shape, density, granularity, and stain uptake.
