OBJECTIVE We investigated the in vitro responsiveness of neutrophils adherent to fibronectin (FN) and laminin (LM), toward natural pro-inflammatory and/or phagocyte-activating agents. METHODS Neutrophils from normal volunteers were layered on polystyrene wells precoated or not with FN and/or LM and tested for their ability of responding to eleven pro-inflammatory mediators by evaluation of superoxide anion (O2-) production and adherence. Results, expressed as mean +/-1SEM, were evaluated by non-parametric analyses (Mann-Whitney U-test or Kruskal-Wallis non-parametric ANOVA analysis) RESULTS Precoating polystyrene wells with LM or FN prevented the plastic-induced neutrophil (O2-) production. Among eleven agents, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF, 3.0+/-0.3 nmoles (O2-)/5 x 10(4) neutrophils/180 min, p < 0.001), granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF, 2.1+/-0.3 nmoles (O2-)/5 x 10(4) neutrophils/180 min, p < 0.05) and formyl-peptides (fMLP, 2.5+/-0.5 nmoles (O2-)/5 x 10(4) neutrophils/180min, p < 0.01) caused massive (O2-) production by neutrophils adherent to FN. None of the mediators was capable of triggering (O2-) production by neutrophils adherent to LM. LM, mixed with FN to coat wells, caused a dose-dependent inhibition of the oxidative burst triggered by TNF (IC50 LM: 0.84+/-0.03 microg, mean+/-1 SEM), GM-CSF (IC50 LM: 0.36+/-0.16micro/g, mean+/-1SEM) and fMLP (IC50 LM: 0.54+/-0.008 microg, mean+/-1 SEM). To the contrary, fMLP (85.5+/-27.7%), TNF (163.1+/-67.5%), and GM-CSF (121.8+/-66.4%) caused a significant augmentation of neutrophil adherence to LM, suggesting that LM-mediated inhibition of neutrophil oxidative metabolism does not depend on the concomitant LM-induced inhibition of neutrophil adherence. Finally, neither solid-phase FN nor LM affected (O2-) production by neutrophils in response to immune complexes. CONCLUSIONS Extracellular matrix glycoproteins dictate the response of neutrophils to soluble mediators but not to immune complexes. This appears to be a biologically meaningful mechanism to localise the risk of cellular reactions to mediators that are able to diffuse easily from tissue sites of generation and become widely distributed in body fluids during inflammatory diseases.

D005353 Fibronectins Glycoproteins found on the surfaces of cells, particularly in fibrillar structures. The proteins are lost or reduced when these cells undergo viral or chemical transformation. They are highly susceptible to proteolysis and are substrates for activated blood coagulation factor VIII. The forms present in plasma are called cold-insoluble globulins.

D016207 Cytokines Non-antibody proteins secreted by inflammatory leukocytes and some non-leukocytic cells, that act as intercellular mediators. They differ from classical hormones in that they are produced by a number of tissue or cell types rather than by specialized glands. They generally act locally in a paracrine or autocrine rather than endocrine manner. Cytokine
D016326 Extracellular Matrix Proteins Macromolecular organic compounds that contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and usually, sulfur. These macromolecules (proteins) form an intricate meshwork in which cells are embedded to construct tissues. Variations in the relative types of macromolecules and their organization determine the type of extracellular matrix, each adapted to the functional requirements of the tissue. The two main classes of macromolecules that form the extracellular matrix are: glycosaminoglycans, usually linked to proteins (proteoglycans), and fibrous proteins (e.g., COLLAGEN; ELASTIN; FIBRONECTINS; and LAMININ).

D016897 Respiratory Burst A large increase in oxygen uptake by neutrophils and most types of tissue macrophages through activation of an NADPH-cytochrome b-dependent oxidase that reduces oxygen to a superoxide. Individuals with an inherited defect in which the oxidase that reduces oxygen to superoxide is decreased or absent (GRANULOMATOUS DISEASE, CHRONIC) often die as a result of recurrent bacterial infections.
