Abstract
The properties of specific human interleukin 1 (IL 1) receptors on human Epstein Barr virus-transformed B lymphocytes (EBV-B) were studied. Purified human IL 1-beta from a myelomonocytic cell line (THP-1) was labeled with 125I by the Bolton-Hunter method without detectable loss of biological activity. Among four EBV-B cell lines tested, a pre-B cell type (VDS-O) specifically bound the highest amount of 125I-IL 1-beta. Maximal binding was reached within 20 min at 4 degrees C. Scatchard plot analysis of the binding of 125I-IL 1-beta to VDS-O cells yielded a Kd (dissociation constant) of 2.4 to 5.9 X 10(-10) M with 110 to 220 binding (receptor) sites/cell. The binding of 125I-IL 1-beta to VDS-O cells was also inhibited by F(ab)'2 fragments of anti-human IL 1 and recombinant human IL 1-alpha, as well as by unlabeled human IL 1-beta but not by recombinant lymphotoxin, recombinant tumor necrosis factor, or phorbol myristic acid, suggesting that IL 1-alpha and IL 1-beta bind specifically to the same receptor. The m.w. of IL 1 receptor on human EBV-B cells was estimated to be 60,000 by both the chemical cross-linking method and high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) gel filtration analysis of receptor extracted from membrane enriched fraction by a non-ionic detergent (CHAPS). The isoelectric point of solubilized human IL 1 receptor was 7.3 on HPLC chromatofocusing. The evidence of existence of IL 1 receptor on human EBV-B cells additionally supports the hypothesis that IL 1 may be an autocrine signal for these cells.

Abstract
A human B cell line which shows a marked dose dependence on B cell growth factor (BCGF) when cultured in less than or equal to 2% serum has been established. Human B lymphocytes were obtained from peripheral blood of normal donors and cultured in the presence of anti-IgM (mu chain specific) and BCGF. Frequent refeedings with fresh medium containing BCGF and anti-IgM led to the establishment of a long term cultured human B cell line, HAB-40. Phenotyping of HAB-40 revealed that the cell population consisted predominantly of IgM-bearing (72%) and B1 (100%) positive cells. This B cell line consistently secreted IgM and IgG when co-cultured in the presence of PMA, anti-IgM and beta or gamma interferon (IFN). Also, it was Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen (EBNA) positive (100%). HAB-40 cells have been successfully maintained in the presence of BCGF without anti-IgM for over a year. Removal of BCGF led to the rapid loss of viable cells in cultures containing less than 2% serum. HAB-40 cells in microassays exhibited a marked dose-dependent incorporation of [3H]thymidine in response to BCGF in the absence of any exogenous stimulants such as anti-IgM or Staphylococcus aureus Cowan I (SAC). Recombinant interleukin 2 (IL-2) failed to augment the [3H]thymidine uptake by these B cells despite the low density expression of Tac antigen (IL-2 receptor) on their cell surface, or even when the cells were stimulated with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) to express higher density of Tac antigen (48%). HAB-40 cells could be maintained in BCGF which was partially purified to deplete it of other contaminating proteins. None of the seven well established EBNA-positive human B cell lines nor two chronic B lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) cell lines that were tested showed BCGF dependence. The same BCGF-active chromatographic fractions that were active on HAB-40 cells also stimulated BCL1 and normal human B cells stimulated with anti-IgM. In the presence of less than or equal to 2% serum proteins this cell line provides a simple, reproducible assay for BCGF even in the presence of contaminant IL-2.

Abstract
An effective induction protocol for the production of interleukin 1 (IL 1) by human myelomonocytic cell line (THP-1) cells was developed, and two biochemically distinct human IL 1 peptides were purified. Lipopolysaccharide, silica, and hydroxyurea by themselves did not induce IL 1 production, but these three stimulants in combination had a synergistic effect on the production of IL 1 by THP-1 cells. A 17-kilodalton (kDa) form of human IL 1 with a pI of 7.0 (IL 1-beta) was purified to homogeneity by sequential chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel, Sephacryl S-200, CM high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and hydroxyapatite HPLC. The recovery of IL 1-beta activity was 45%, and the specific activity was 2.3 X 10(7) units/mg. Both IL 1-beta and a second 17-kDa IL 1 moiety with a pI of 5.0 (IL 1-alpha) were also extracted from stimulated THP-1 cells and purified to homogeneity by sequential chromatography on Sephacryl S-200, ion exchange HPLC, and hydroxyapatite HPLC. The recovery of IL 1-beta from cell extracts was 5.6%, and the specific activity was 3 X 10(7) units/mg. In contrast, only 0.85% of IL 1-alpha was recovered with a specific activity of 5.3 X 10(7) units/mg.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The production of interleukin (IL 1) by normal human peripheral blood monocytes purified by Ficoll-Hypaque density sedimentation, Percoll-gradient sedimentation, and plastic adherence can be detected as early as 30 min intracellularly, and extracellularly within 1 hr after stimulation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Production of mRNA coding for the isoelectric point 7.0 species of IL 1 was also detected as early as 1 hr after LPS stimulation and reached a maximum level at 6 hr. Cell-associated IL 1 activity could be extracted with CHAPS detergent from every cell fraction (i.e., membranes, cytosol, and particulates), but was present mainly (greater than 95%) in the cytosol of LPS-activated monocytes and the myelomonocytic cell line, THP-1. The apparent m.w. of IL 1 activity on high pressure liquid chromatography gel filtration in every cell fraction was approximately 23,000 daltons, with a minor peak at 31,000 daltons, whereas the IL 1 activity in the culture supernatants was 17,000 daltons. Western blotting analysis of LPS-stimulated monocyte extracts showed two forms of IL 1 corresponding to 31,000 daltons and 25,000 daltons. Exposure of viable cells to trypsin and plasmin released biologically active 23,000 dalton IL 1 only from IL 1-producing cells such as activated monocytes and IL 1-producing Ebstein-Barr virus B lymphocyte cell lines. Consequently, biologically active IL 1 is presumably exposed on the outer surface of cell membranes. Furthermore, IL 1 release by human monocytes in plasminogen-depleted fetal calf serum was considerably decreased. Conversely, supplementation of plasminogen-depleted serum with purified plasminogen restored the IL 1 production, suggesting that plasmin or plasmin-like factors may be involved in the regulation of the release of IL 1 from IL 1-producing cells. In conclusion, the results suggest that IL 1 is rapidly produced, is pooled in the cytosol, and in part is processed by enzymes, is transferred to the plasma membranes, and is then released from the cells. Tissue plasminogen activator and serum enzymes such as plasmin may therefore be involved in the release of IL 1 from IL 1-producing cells.

Abstract
Highly purified interleukin 1 (IL 1) obtained from stimulated human monocytes appeared to be growth inhibitory and cytocidal for a human melanoma cell line, A375. Although IL 1 did not have an immediate cytolytic effect, with time in culture the growth of the target cells was irreversibly inhibited. The cells eventually lysed and decreased markedly in number; the IL 1 effect can therefore be said to be cytocidal. IL 1 activity could not be separated from the cytocidal activity by a variety of chromatography procedures by using conventional and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The A375 melanoma cell line was also sensitive to another human cytokine alpha-lymphotoxin (alpha-LT) derived from a human B cell line. IL 1 also appeared to be partially growth inhibitory and cytocidal for a LT-sensitive mouse fibroblast cell line, L929; but not for LT-resistant cells, including a subline of L929; a human epithelial carcinoma cell line, HeLa; a human osteosarcoma cell line, HOS; and a mouse SV40-transformed kidney cell line, TU5. However, the LT-sensitive mouse fibroblast cell line, L-M, was resistant to IL 1. Therefore, the cytocidal activity of IL 1 only partially overlapped the target cell selectivity of alpha-LT. Although natural IFN-alpha and recombinant IFN-beta were appreciably growth inhibitory for the A375 cell line, natural and recombinant IFN-alpha and recombinant IFN-beta and IFN-gamma exhibited little cytocidal activity. Purified IL 1 did not have any antiviral activity, and conversely, IFN and alpha-LT were not co-mitogenic for thymocytes. Furthermore, by ELISA and radioimmunoassays, antibodies against human alpha-LT, tumor necrosis factor, and IFN-gamma did not react with IL 1, indicating that IL 1 is antigenically distinct from these other cytokines. These in vitro results suggest that IL 1 may play a role in host defense against some tumors as a cytocidal factor.

Abstract
Adriamycin, an anticancer drug, caused dramatic increases in the serum lipid levels of rats fed a high-cholesterol diet. Male Lewis inbred rats were fed a basal or 1.5% cholesterol diet containing 0.5% cholic acid for 8 weeks. The rats were injected with adriamycin in doses of 1.5 mg/kg body weight, twice a week, and 6.0 mg/kg body weight, every other week. The serum lipid peroxide level gradually rose in adriamycin-treated rats, reaching a four-fold level at the end of the experiment. Cholesterol feeding, however, had a lowering effect on the lipid peroxide level. Adriamycin treatment or cholesterol feeding moderately elevated serum lipid levels, but their combination exerted a synergistic effect. In rats injected with a large dose of adriamycin and fed a high-cholesterol diet, the serum cholesterol, triglyceride and phospholipid levels strikingly increased by approx. 2000, 1500 and 1300 mg/100 ml, respectively. However, the ester ratio of cholesterol remained almost constant. Furthermore, serum GOT, GPT and ALP activities were only slightly different from the control values. Adriamycin treatment produced severe hypoalbuminemia. Ascites was also observed in rats given a large dose of adriamycin. The present findings indicate that the hyperlipidemia we observed may basically result from adriamycin-induced nephrosis and can be markedly enhanced when rats are fed a high-cholesterol diet. In spite of remarkably high levels of serum lipids and lipid peroxides, the aortic cholesterol level increased only slightly.

Abstract
A variety of types of human B-cell lines were evaluated for their ability to produce interleukin 1 (IL-1)-like factors. All of the eight Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-transformed B lymphocyte lines, three of four of the EBV+ lymphoma lines, only three of seven of the EBV- lymphoma lines, and none of the three tested myeloma lines secreted some IL-1 activity. The IL-1-like factor produced by the cell lines was detected on the basis of its thymocyte comitogenic and/or fibroblast proliferative activities. Injections of partially purified IL-1-like factor from one of the EBV-transformed B-lymphocyte lines also induced the appearance of an acute phase protein (haptoglobin) in the serum of C3H/HeJ mice. These biological activities are identical with those of monocyte-derived IL-1. Thymocyte comitogenic activity and fibroblast proliferation activity from one of the EBV-B cell line-derived IL-1-like activities were not dissociable by biochemical procedures, including HPLC gel filtration and HPLC anion-exchange chromatography. However, the IL-1-like factor from one of the EBV-B lymphocyte cell lines was larger in size (25 kDa) and more acidic (pI 5.5) than monocyte-derived IL-1.

Abstract
Interleukin 1 (IL 1) production by normal human B lymphocytes was investigated. Normal human peripheral blood B lymphocytes were purified by sequential separation with the use of Ficoll-Hypaque gradient centrifugation, sheep red blood cell rosette formation, Percoll gradients, and treatment with monoclonal antibodies (anti-Leu-M1, B73.1, and T101) and complement. Both purified large B lymphocytes (BL) and small B lymphocytes (BS) produced IL 1-like (thymocyte co-mitogenic and fibroblast mitogenic) activities in response to lipopolysaccharide. Maximal production of IL 1 activity by both BL and BS occurred at 48 hr. The m.w. of IL 1 activities from both BL and BS were about 20,000 with high pressure liquid chromatography, and the major isoelectric point of BL- and BS-derived IL 1 activity was 7.0. A rabbit anti-human monocyte IL 1 antiserum inhibited the activity of B cell-derived IL 1, suggesting antigenic similarities of monocyte- and B lymphocyte-derived IL 1 moieties. These data suggest that normal B lymphocyte-derived IL 1 activity is biochemically and immunologically similar to monocyte-derived IL 1.

Abstract
Abstract
Human peripheral blood monocytes from normal donors obtained by separation on a Percoll gradient showed considerable cytotoxicity against tumor cells when preincubated in vitro for 24 hr with human monocyte-derived interleukin 1 (IL 1). In contrast, monocytes after pretreatment in medium alone had low cytotoxic activity. All the IL 1 preparations, including IL 1 which was purified by high-performance liquid column chromatography (HPLC), as well as crude culture supernatant from human monocytes promoted monocyte-mediated cytotoxicity in the same dose-dependent manner as the thymocyte growth-promoting activity. There was no endotoxin or interferon (IFN) activity in the highly purified IL 1, suggesting that IL 1 itself was the active moiety. The effect of IL 1 on monocyte-mediated cytotoxicity was partially inhibited by indomethacin, whereas pretreatment of monocytes with prostaglandin (PG) E1 or E2 rather than IL 1 also resulted in substantial monocyte cytotoxicity. Thus, the effect of IL 1 on monocyte-mediated cytotoxicity is presumably mediated by PGE. Since fresh monocytes that were not preincubated exhibited levels of spontaneous cytotoxic activity similar to that of monocytes preincubated with IL 1, it seemed likely that the effect of IL 1 was to maintain the spontaneous level of activity rather than to induce cytotoxic activity. To elucidate this possibility, monocytes were first preincubated in medium alone for a longer period, and after losing their spontaneous activity they were further incubated with or without IL 1. Such "aged" monocytes did not develop cytotoxic activity in response to IL 1 but did in response to other agents known to induce macrophage cytotoxicity, such as endotoxin or lymphokine-containing supernatants. Therefore, the major effect of IL 1 actually seemed to prolong the cytotoxic state of monocytes. These results also suggest that IL 1 released by macrophages or monocytes may play a role in host defense against neoplastic cells by acting on monocytes as an autostimulating factor.

Abstract
Cytophotometric DNA analysis of rectal mucosa was carried out in 11 patients with ulcerative colitis, in attempt to determine the proliferative activity of rectal mucosa. There was no significant difference in the mean DNA value, modal DNA value, total variation of DNA content and population of over 3c cells of rectal mucosa between controls and the patients. However, the differential determination of the proliferative activity in the upper, middle and lower thirds of the crypt disclosed that a population of over 3c cells in the upper and middle thirds of the crypt was significantly larger in the patients with longstanding disease than in the controls.

Abstract
Human peripheral blood monocytes from normal donors obtained by separation on a Percoll gradient showed considerable cytotoxicity against tumor cells when preincubated in vitro for 24 hr with human monocyte-derived interleukin 1 (IL 1). In contrast, monocytes after pretreatment in medium alone had low cytotoxic activity. All the IL 1 preparations, including IL 1 which was purified by high-performance liquid column chromatography (HPLC), as well as crude culture supernatant from human monocytes promoted monocyte-mediated cytotoxicity in the same dose-dependent manner as the thymocyte growth-promoting activity. There was no endotoxin or interferon (IFN) activity in the highly purified IL 1, suggesting that IL 1 itself was the active moiety. The effect of IL 1 on monocyte-mediated cytotoxicity was partially inhibited by indomethacin, whereas pretreatment of monocytes with prostaglandin (PG) E1 or E2 rather than IL 1 also resulted in substantial monocyte cytotoxicity. Thus, the effect of IL 1 on monocyte-mediated cytotoxicity is presumably mediated by PGE. Since fresh monocytes that were not preincubated exhibited levels of spontaneous cytotoxic activity similar to that of monocytes preincubated with IL 1, it seemed likely that the effect of IL 1 was to maintain the spontaneous level of activity rather than to induce cytotoxic activity. To elucidate this possibility, monocytes were first preincubated in medium alone for a longer period, and after losing their spontaneous activity they were further incubated with or without IL 1. Such "aged" monocytes did not develop cytotoxic activity in response to IL 1 but did in response to other agents known to induce macrophage cytotoxicity, such as endotoxin or lymphokine-containing supernatants. Therefore, the major effect of IL 1 actually seemed to prolong the cytotoxic state of monocytes. These results also suggest that IL 1 released by macrophages or monocytes may play a role in host defense against neoplastic cells by acting on monocytes as an autostimulating factor.

Abstract
We have shown that two human monocyte subsets can be isolated from the peripheral blood of healthy donors; these subsets possess different morphological, cytochemical, functional, and in vivo trafficking properties [1]. In this report, these two subsets were further characterized. One subset (intermediate monocytes, IM) has been shown to have significantly lower acid phosphatase activity and total cellular protein content as well as lower peroxidase activity when compared with another subset (regular monocytes, RM). The overall activation status of the two subsets (as determined by their alkaline phosphodiesterase activity) was identical. We also examined the capacity of these subsets to release various cytokines with or without polyriboinosinic and polyribocytidylic acid (Poly I:C) stimulation. There was no appreciable difference in their ability to release interferon (IFN), interleukin 1 (IL-1), and prostaglandin E (PGE) without stimulation, while IM produced slightly, but significantly, higher amounts of colony-stimulating factor (CSF) than RM. The amount of IFN released by IM in response to poly I:C was approximately three times higher than the amount of IFN released by RM. IL-1 was also released in higher amounts by IM than by RM in response to poly I:C. IM were also found to release more CSF than RM in response to poly I:C. In contrast, it was noted that IM secrete significantly less PGE response to poly I:C than do RM. These findings indicate that two purified human monocyte subsets, distinguishable by maturation markers, differ significantly in their ability to release various cytokines after stimulation; this difference may be relevant to potential in vivo roles of these immunoregulatory cells.

Abstract
Human interleukin 1 (IL-1) in lipopolysaccharide and silica-stimulated human peripheral blood monocyte culture supernatants was purified to apparent homogeneity by sequential chromatography using DEAE-Sephacel, Sephacryl S-200, CM-high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and hydroxyapatite-HPLC. Analysis by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) yielded only one band detectable by silver staining with an apparent molecular weight (MW) of 19,000 under nonreducing conditions. IL-1 activity was eluted from a single site from PAGE performed in the absence of SDS. About 4.4 micrograms of IL-1 was purified from 5.0 liters of culture supernatant of lipopolysaccharide- and silica-stimulated human peripheral blood monocytes, with 46.6% recovery of biological activity. The specific activity of the purified IL-1 was 4.3 X 10(7) U/mg protein. Amino acid composition analysis of the purified human IL-1 was similar to that previously described for murine IL-1. The purified IL-1 exhibited the biological activities previously attributed to IL-1, including thymocyte comitogenic activity, fibroblast proliferation activity, acute-phase protein (haptoglobin)-inducing activity, and endogenous pyrogen activity.

Abstract
The effects of human interleukin 1 (IL 1) on collagen type IV production by normal mouse mammary epithelial cells were examined. Human IL 1 was derived from the culture media of peripheral blood monocytes or placental cells that were stimulated with silica. Although crude culture media of silica-stimulated monocytes or placental cells had no enhancing activity for type IV collagen production, IL 1-containing fractions obtained by Sephacryl S-200 gel chromatography and isoelectrofocusing from such media possessed considerable activity. To confirm the effects of IL 1 on collagen production, human monocyte-derived IL 1 was highly purified by sequential isoelectrofocusing, anion-exchange (AX 300), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and HPLC gel filtration (TSK 3000). The same HPLC gel filtration fractions contained both an activity that stimulated collagen synthesis by mammary cells and thymocyte growth-promoting activity. These activities of IL 1 differed from a number of other factors, such as epidermal growth factor and another factor produced by placental cells that stimulated type IV collagen production but not thymocyte proliferation. In fact, IL 1 induced 100-fold less collagen type IV production by mammary epithelial cells than was needed to induce thymocyte proliferation. Our data suggest that IL 1-like molecules, which reportedly are produced by many tissue cell types, may therefore play a role in promoting a basement membrane formation at stromal-epithelial boundaries.

Abstract
The effects of calcium ionophore, A23187, on production of interleukin 1 (IL-1) by human peripheral blood monocytes (PEMo) and on murine thymocyte proliferation were examined. A23187 induced IL-1 production by human PBMo. The optimal dose was 10(-6) M. Although IL-1 production induced by A23187 was less than that by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or silica, A23187 together with LPS had a synergistic effect on induction of IL-1. A23187 also had a more marked synergistic effect in concert with Concanavalin A and/or IL-1 on murine thymocyte proliferation. The optimal dose was also 10(-6) M. This represents the first report suggesting that monocytes or the monocyte product, IL-1, may contribute to the mitogenic effect of A23187 for thymocytes.

Abstract
Biochemical characterization of the serum and aorta in inbred C57BL/6Cr mice fed a high-cholesterol diet was investigated by determining the total cholesterol (TC) and free cholesterol (FC) levels in serum, high density lipoprotein (HDL) and aorta. Serum lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) activity was also determined. A modified fluoroenzymatic method for microdetermination of cholesterol was successfully used. TC and FC levels of the aorta in the mice were significantly increased by the high-cholesterol diet. Serum TC and FC levels of mice fed the high-cholesterol diet were increased about 80% and 110%, respectively, compared with the control. On the other hand, both HDL-TC and HDL-FC levels were decreased about 50%. The HDL-TC/serum-TC ratio was markedly decreased, while the atherogenic index was markedly increased with the high-cholesterol diet. LCAT activity was also strikingly decreased. A positive correlation was observed between LCAT activity and HDL-cholesterol. These changes in the serum may facilitate cholesterol accumulation in the aorta. The results indicate that a biochemical approach using mice may be possible for drug evaluation.

Abstract
A large-scale purification method for alpha 2 HS-glycoprotein from normal human pooled serum is presented. 130 mg of alpha 2 HS was obtained from 21 of normal serum and the yield was 13.6%. Charge heterogeneity on isoelectrofocusing of this protein is mainly due to sialic acid. By the measurement of the circular dichroism spectrum, the alpha-helix content was calculated as 11% and the beta-structure content was calculated as 21 to 33%. alpha 2HS consists of a single polypeptide chain (Mr 49,000) of which the N-terminal amino acid is alanine. The N-terminal sequence of 31 amino acids contains 19 hydrophobic residues.
