Intraperitoneal administration of human recombinant interleukin-1 (IL-1) to rats can increase blood levels of corticosterone and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). The route by which IL-1 affects pituitary-adrenal activity is unknown. That the IL-1-induced pituitary-adrenal activation involves an increased secretion of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) is indicated by three lines of evidence. First, immunoneutralization of CRF markedly attenuated the IL-1-induced increase of ACTH blood levels. Second, after blockade of fast axonal transport in hypothalamic neurons by colchicine, IL-1 administration decreased the CRF immunostaining in the median eminence, indicating an enhanced release of CRF in response to IL-1. Third, IL-1 did not stimulate ACTH release from primary cultures of anterior pituitary cells. These data further support the notion of the existence of an immunoregulatory feedback circuit between the immune system and the brain.  相似文献

There is now evidence that the immune system, during times of infectious challenge, can stimulate the secretion of glucocorticoids, the adrenal steroids that mediate important aspects of the response to stress. Specifically, secretion of interleukin-1 (IL-1), a monocyte lymphokine secreted after infection, appears at least in part responsible for this effect. Glucocorticoids are secreted in response to a neuroendocrine cascade involving, first, the brain, then the pituitary, and finally the adrenal gland. In this report, human IL-1 is shown to activate the adrenocortical axis at the level of the brain, stimulating the release of the controlling hormone corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) from the hypothalamus. Infusion of IL-1 induced a significant secretion of CRF into the circulation exiting the hypothalamus, whereas immunoneutralization of CRF blocked the stimulatory effect of IL-1 on glucocorticoid secretion. IL-1 appeared to have no acute direct stimulatory effects on the pituitary or adrenal components of this system. Furthermore, IL-1 did not cause a nonspecific release of other hypothalamic hormones. Thus, the lymphokine acts in a specific manner to activate the adrenocortical axis at the level of the brain; this effect appears to be unrelated to the known pyrogenic effects of IL-1 within the hypothalamus.  相似文献

The results of the study demonstrated the immunosuppression in albino rats under a complex impact of T-2 toxin and Salmonella, manifested by the significant increase of anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-1β content in the blood and a slight increase of IL-4, stimulating the humoral immunity, the decrease of concentration of other anti-inflammatory mediators (TNF-α, IL-8), immunoregulatory interleukins IL-2, interferon-γ and anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10, and interferon–γ/IL-4 ratio, indicating an evident T-deficit and a more significant suppression of Th-1 lymphocyte function.  相似文献

The aim of this study is to investigate the significance of Th1/Th2 cytokine balance in the uterus in the early embryo loss (or resorption), and to elucidate immunological modulation at the maternal-fetal interface with Chinese herbal medicine Radix scutellariae (Huang Qin) and its constituents (Baicalin and Baicalein). Mifepristone (RU486) was given via subcutaneous injection in the scapular area to induce abortion in mice at day 7 of gestation. The levels of uterine Th1 cytokines (IFN-γ, IL-2) and Th2 cytokines (IL-4, IL-10) were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), respectively. The mean values of Th1 cytokines in the uterus of RU486-treated abortion mice were significantly higher (P < 0.05) than that of the control mice, but no significant difference was observed regarding to the contents of Th2 cytokines of different groups (P > 0.05). However, when the Radix scutellariae and its constituents were used to prevent RU486-induced abortion, the levels of IFN-γ and IL-2 decreased while that of IL-4 and IL-10 increased. The embryo loss induced by RU486 was closely related to the Th1/Th2 immune balance at the maternal-fetal interface. Radix scutellariae and its constituents have an anti-abortive effect through restoring the Th1/Th2 balance at the maternal-fetal interface.  相似文献

Blood-brain barrier: endogenous modulation by adrenal-cortical function   总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12  
The blood-brain barrier restricts the passage of molecules from the blood to the brain. The permeability of the barrier to iodine-125-labeled bovine serum albumin was examined in rats that had undergone adrenalectomy, adrenal demedullation, and corticosterone replacement. Adrenalectomy, but not adrenal demedullation, increased the permeability of brain tissue to the isotopically labeled macromolecule; corticosterone replacement reversed this effect. These results indicate that the blood-brain barrier may be hormonally regulated; that is, the pituitary-adrenal axis may physiologically modulate the permeability of the brain microvasculature to macromolecules.  相似文献

The cytokine levels in the blood of sows during the gestation and lactation periods have been defined in an experiment with 20 healthy animals that were at risk of progressive inflammatory processes in the reproductive organs. The sows were divided into two groups of ten each. Significant differences between the levels of proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines in the sows exposed to the inflammatory risk factors when compared with that in the control animals were revealed. The cytokine profiles in sows during early gestation and in the second half of pregnancy were characterized by the predominance of producing IL-1α and IL-4 and the reduction in producing IFN-γ. In late pregnancy, the increased syntheses of IL-1α, IL-4, IL-6, and IFN-γ were observed. With respect to the third to fourth day of lactation, the cytokine stimulated the IL-1α, IL-4, and IFN-γ production. Before weaning the piglets, the production of IL-1α, IL-4, IL-6, and IFN-γ was enhanced. The ascertained values for the cytokine levels are recommended to be used for risk predicting and diagnosing the inflammatory disease processes in the reproductive organs.  相似文献

T-cell growth factor (TCGF) or interleukin-2 (IL-2), an immunoregulatory lymphokine, is produced by lectin- or antigen-activated mature T lymphocytes and in a constitutive manner by certain T-cell lymphoma cell lines. By means of a molecular clone of human TCGF and DNA extracted from a panel of somatic cell hybrids (rodent cells X normal human lymphocytes), the TCGF structural gene was identified on human chromosome 4. In situ hybridization of the TCGF clone to human chromosomes resulted in significant labeling of the midportion of the long arm of chromosome 4, indicating that the TCGF gene was located at band q26-28. Genomic DNA from a panel of hybrids prepared with HUT-102 B2 cells was examined with the same molecular clone. In this clone of cells, which produces human T-cell leukemia virus, the TCGF gene was also located on chromosome 4 and was apparently not rearranged. The homologous TCGF locus in the domestic cat was assigned to chromosome B1 by using a somatic cell hybrid panel that segregates cat chromosomes. Linkage studies as well as high-resolution G-trypsin banding indicate that this feline chromosome is partially homologous to human chromosome 4.  相似文献

Endotoxin-free thymosin fraction 5 elevated corticotropin, beta-endorphin, and cortisol in a dose- and time-dependent fashion when administered intravenously to prepubertal cynomolgus monkeys. Two synthetic component peptides of thymosin fraction 5 had no acute effects on pituitary function, suggesting that some other peptides in thymosin fraction 5 were responsible for its corticotropin-releasing activity. In agreement with these observations, total thymectomy of juvenile macaques was associated with decreases in plasma cortisol, corticotropin, and beta-endorphin. These findings indicate that the prepubertal primate thymus contains corticotropin-releasing activity that may contribute to a physiological immunoregulatory circuit between the developing immunological and pituitary-adrenal systems.  相似文献

Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is an immunoregulatory cytokine that binds sequentially to the alpha (IL-2Ralpha), beta (IL-2Rbeta), and common gamma chain (gammac) receptor subunits. Here we present the 2.8 angstrom crystal structure of a complex between human IL-2 and IL-2Ralpha, which interact in a docking mode distinct from that of other cytokine receptor complexes. IL-2Ralpha is composed of strand-swapped "sushi-like" domains, unlike the classical cytokine receptor fold. As a result of this domain swap, IL-2Ralpha uses a composite surface to dock into a groove on IL-2 that also serves as a binding site for antagonist drugs. With this complex, we now have representative structures for each class of hematopoietic cytokine receptor-docking modules.  相似文献
