Abstract
Heightened expression of both a proinflammatory cytokine, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), and a survival peptide, insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I), occurs in diverse diseases of the central nervous system, including Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis, the AIDS-dementia complex, and cerebral ischemia. Conventional roles for these two proteins are neuroprotection by IGF-I and neurotoxicity by TNF-alpha. Although the mechanisms of action for IGF-I and TNF-alpha in the central nervous system originally were established as disparate and unrelated, we hypothesized that the signaling pathways of these two cytokines may interact during neurodegeneration. Here we show that concentrations of TNF-alpha as low as 10 pg/ml markedly reduce the capacity of IGF-I to promote survival of primary murine cerebellar granule neurons. TNF-alpha suppresses IGF-I-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate 2 (IRS-2) and inhibits IRS-2-precipitable phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase activity. These experiments indicate that TNF-alpha promotes IGF-I receptor resistance in neurons and inhibits the ability of the IGF-I receptor to tyrosine-phosphorylate the IRS-2 docking molecule and to subsequently activate the critical downstream enzyme phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase. This intracellular crosstalk between discrete cytokine receptors reveals a novel pathway that leads to neuronal degeneration whereby a proinflammatory cytokine inhibits receptor signaling by a survival peptide.

Abstract
There is an increasingly impressive database concerning the possible involvement of cytokines in depression and their role in the therapeutic effects of antidepressants. Based on the discussions which took place on these issues at a recent meeting held in Roscoff, France, this perspective summarizes in a critical way the evidence in favor of such a possibility, and points out the needs for further research to clarify both the nature of the subtle dysregulations that affect neuroendocrine-immune interactions in depressive disorders and their contribution to psychopathology.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase (PI 3-kinase) catalyzes the formation of 3' phosphoinositides and has been implicated in an intracellular signaling pathway that inhibits apoptosis in both neuronal and hemopoietic cells. Here, we investigated two potential downstream mediators of PI 3-kinase, the serine/threonine p70 S6-kinase (S6-kinase) and the antiapoptotic protein B cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2). Stimulation of factor-dependent cell progenitor (FDCP) cells with either IL-4 or insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I induced a 10-fold increase in the activity of both PI 3-kinase and S6-kinase. Rapamycin blocked 90% of the S6-kinase activity but did not affect PI 3-kinase, whereas wortmannin and LY294002 inhibited the activity of both S6-kinase and PI 3-kinase. However, wortmannin and LY294002, but not rapamycin, blocked the ability of IL-4 and IGF-I to promote cell survival. We next established that IL-3, IL-4, and IGF-I increase expression of Bcl-2 by >3-fold. Pretreatment with inhibitors of PI 3-kinase, but not rapamycin, abrogated expression of Bcl-2 caused by IL-4 and IGF-I, but not by IL-3. None of the cytokines affected expression of the proapoptotic protein Bax, suggesting that all three cytokines were specific for Bcl-2. These data establish that inhibition of PI 3-kinase, but not S6-kinase, blocks the ability of IL-4 and IGF-I to increase expression of Bcl-2 and protect promyeloid cells from apoptosis. The requirement for PI 3-kinase to maintain Bcl-2 expression depends upon the ligand that activates the cell survival pathway.

Abstract
Peripheral (i.p.) and central (i.c.v.) injections of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) have been shown to induce brain expression of proinflammatory cytokines and to depress social behaviour in rats, increase duration of immobility and induce body weight loss. To determine if the anti-inflammatory cytokine, interleukin-10 (IL-10) is able to modulate these effects, recombinant rat IL-10 was injected in the lateral ventricle of the brain (30, 100, 300 ng/rat) prior to i.p. or i.c.v. injection of LPS (250 micrograms/kg or 60 ng/rat, respectively). Social exploration was depressed for 6 h after i.p. LPS injection. This effect was attenuated by IL-10 (30 and 100 ng) 2 h after injection, whereas the highest dose of IL-10 blocked the depression of social interaction for 6 h after LPS injection. IL-10 produced the same effects on the increase of immobility although the results did not reach significance. Social exploration was depressed 3 h after i.c.v. LPS injection, and this was accompanied by increased immobility. These effects were totally blocked by i.c.v. IL-10 (300 ng/rat). Rats lost body weight after i.c.v. LPS, and this effect was attenuated by i.c.v. IL-10. These results indicate that IL-10 is able to modulate the production and/or action of central proinflammatory cytokines.

Abstract
Rodents exposed for a short amount of time to conspecific juveniles spend less time investigating familiar than unfamiliar juveniles. This is based on the formation of an olfactory image of juveniles, which involves an androgen-dependent vasopressinergic pathway in males, as demonstrated by the ability of the vasopressin receptor antagonist dPTyr(Me)VP to block social recognition in intact male but not in female and castrated rats and mice. The involvement of sexually dimorphic vasopressinergic neurons appears to be dependent on the processing of social olfactory cues by the vomeronasal organ since removal of this organ in male rats mimics the effects of castration. These findings are discussed in relation to the role of vasopressin in learning and memory.

Abstract
Interleukin-1beta plays an important role in mediating central components of the host response to peripheral infection such as fever and neuroendocrine activation by acting in the brain. The present study assessed whether interleukin-1beta produced in the brain is relevant to neuronal activation and the fever response induced by intraperitoneal injection of bacterial lipopolysaccharide. The distributions of Fos protein, interleukin-1beta protein and inducible nitric oxide synthase messenger RNA, used as an anatomical indicator of interleukin-1beta bioactivity, were compared in brains of animals killed 2, 4 or 8 h after lipopolysaccharide (250 microg/kg) or saline injection. Saline did not induce interleukin-1beta or Fos immunoreactivity in the brain. Interleukin-1beta positive cells were found 2 h after lipopolysaccharide injection in circumventricular organs. Fos immunoreactivity at this time-point was not found in circumventricular organs, but in parenchymal structures such as the nucleus of the solitary tract, paraventricular hypothalamus and ventromedial preoptic area. Fos expression did occur in circumventricular organs only 8 h after lipopolysaccharide injection. This late pattern of Fos expression coincided with the rise in body temperature and the induction of inducible nitric oxide synthase messenger RNA. These data show that after peripheral lipopolysaccharide administration interleukin-1beta is synthesized and bioactive in circumventricular organs. Interleukin-1beta may activate local neurons that induce fever and neuroendocrine activation via projections to the ventromedial preoptic area and the nucleus of the solitary tract.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Infectious diseases are accompanied by behavioural and psychological changes that suggest the implication of the central nervous system. Among them, cognitive alterations have been reported, but their specificity and implication in everyday life are still largely unclear. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate and specify the everyday memory disturbances in sick human subjects and to determinate the role of fever in the appearance of these alterations. METHODS The study was carried out in a military training centre for naval recruits. Ninety-one volunteer subjects, healthy (N = 30) or suffering from flu-like syndrome, with (N = 29) or without fever (N = 32), participated in this experiment and were administered a cognitive test (the ERBMT) according to a cross-sectional design for assessing various aspects of everyday memory. RESULTS Sick subjects were specifically impaired in daily memory tasks that require the temporary management of a large amount of information. This impairment was similar for the feverish and apyretic sick subjects who both differed from the controls. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that infectious disease disturbs the complex cognitive processes that might be associated with attentional functions. Moreover, these results show that fever is not a necessary condition for the appearance of these cognitive disturbances.

Abstract
The pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) is strongly expressed during brain injury and is able to induce severe cellular brain damage via the production of soluble factors. Different processes regulate IL-1 biological activities, like the production of anti-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interleukin-10 (IL-10). In this report, we describe the sequential effects of IL-4 and IL-10 on the production of interleukin-6 (IL-6) induced by IL-1beta in mouse primary astrocytes and compare these effects to those of the synthetic glucocorticoid agonist, dexamethasone. IL-6 secretion and IL-6 mRNA expression were determined by ELISA assay and a comparative RT-PCR method, respectively. Incubation of mouse astrocytes in primary culture simultaneously with IL-1beta (10 ng/ml) + IL-10 (10 ng/ml) or IL-1beta + dexamethasone (10(-6) M) markedly reduced IL-1beta induced IL-6 secretion and IL-6 mRNA expression, respectively, whereas simultaneous addition of IL-4 (10 ng/ml) did not alter the induction of IL-6 by IL-1beta. In contrast, after 24 h of IL-1beta treatment, the level of IL-6 was decreased below constitutive levels, and this change was reversed by addition of IL-4. IL-6 production in IL-1beta pretreated cells was also increased by addition of IL-4, whereas IL-10 and dexamethasone had no effects. The delayed time dependent effect of IL-4 might be partially explained by the induction of IL-4 receptor alpha-chain mRNA expression by IL-1beta. Therefore, we conclude that IL-10 and dexamethasone have rapid immunosuppressive effects on the astrocyte response to IL-1beta stimulation, whereas IL-4, which has a delayed action, acts as an immune inducer.

Abstract
Interleukin (IL)-6 has been proposed to mediate several sickness responses, including brain-mediated neuroendocrine, temperature, and behavioral changes. However, the exact mechanisms and sites of action of IL-6 are still poorly understood. In the present study, we describe the effects of central administration of species-homologous recombinant rat IL-6 (rrIL-6) on the induction of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) activity, fever, social investigatory behavior, and immobility. After intracerebroventricular administration of rrIL-6 (50 or 100 ng/rat), rats demonstrated HPA and febrile responses. In contrast, rrIL-6 alone did not induce changes in social investigatory and locomotor behavior at doses of up to 400 ng/rat. Coadministration of rrIL-6 (100 ng/rat) and rrIL-1beta (40 ng/rat), which alone did not affect the behavioral responses, reduced social investigatory behavior and increased the duration of immobility. Compared with rhIL-6, intracerebroventricular administration of rrIL-6 (100 ng/rat) induced higher HPA responses and early-phase febrile responses. This is consistent with a higher potency of rrIL-6, compared with rhIL-6, in the murine B9 bioassay. We conclude that species-homologous rrIL-6 alone can act in the brain to induce HPA and febrile responses, whereas it only reduces social investigatory behavior and locomotor activity in the presence of IL-1beta.

Abstract
To assess the possible modulatory effects of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) on the brain effects of proinflammatory cytokines, male CD-1 mice were injected into the lateral ventricle of the brain with a behaviorally depressing dose (100 ng) of the cytokine inducer lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and their response to various doses of IGF-1 (0, 100 and 1000 ng) was measured during behavioral tests carried before and at various time intervals after treatment. LPS induced a profound behavioral depression that was abrogated by the higher dose of IGF-1 tested. Since the behavioral effects of LPS are mediated by the local synthesis and results of proinflammatory cytokines, these results indicate that IGF-1 interferes with the production and/or action of proinflammatory cytokines in the brain.

Abstract
The biological effects of interleukin-1 (IL-1) are mediated by two distinct receptors, the p80 type I IL-1 and p68 type II IL-1 receptor proteins (IL-1RI and IL-1RII, respectively), both of which have been recently co-localized to the growth hormone synthesizing cells of the adenohypophysis. Previous studies have shown that IL-1 can bind to specific structures in the central nervous system, but the distribution of IL-1RI and IL-1RII proteins in the adult mouse brain has not been reported. Here we have used immunohistochemistry to study the expression, distribution and cellular localization of both isoforms of the IL-1 receptor proteins in the adult mouse brain. Using a combination of processing techniques (AMeX fixation and cryosectioning), we have immunolabeled brain sections for each isoform of the IL-1R. Both isoforms are expressed in the CNS, particularly in neuronal soma of the granular layer of the dentate gyrus and pyramidal cells of fields CA1-CA4 of Ammon's horn of the hippocampus, in epithelial cells of the choroid plexus and ependymal layer, and in neuronal soma of Purkinje cells of the cerebellum. The IL-1RII isoform, but not IL-1RI, is expressed in specific neuronal soma and proximal cell processes of neurons of the paraventricular gray matter of the hypothalamus. These immunohistochemical data directly demonstrate the neuronal expression of both IL-1R proteins in situ. The distribution and cellular localization of IL-1R proteins in the CNS provide a molecular basis for understanding reciprocal interactions between the immune system and the brain.

Abstract
Why a primary lymphoid organ such as the thymus involutes during aging remains a fundamental question in immunology. Aging is associated with a decrease in plasma growth hormone (somatotropin) and IGF-I, and this somatopause of aging suggests a connection between the neuroendocrine and immune systems. Several investigators have demonstrated that treatment with either growth hormone or IGF-I restores architecture of the involuted thymus gland by reversing the loss of immature cortical thymocytes and preventing the decline in thymulin synthesis that occurs in old or GH-deficient animals and humans. The proliferation, differentiation and functions of other components of the immune system, including T and B cells, macrophages and neutrophils, also demonstrate age-associated decrements that can be restored by IGF-I. Knowledge of the mechanism by which cytokines and hormones influence hematopoietic cells is critical to improving the health of aged individuals. Our laboratory has recently demonstrated that IGF-I prevents apoptosis in promyeloid cells, which subsequently permits these cells to differentiate into neutrophils. We also demonstrated that IL-4 acts much like IGF-I to promote survival of promyeloid cells and to activate the enzyme phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase (PI 3-kinase). However, the receptors for IGF-I and IL-4 are completely different, with the intracellular beta chains of the IGF receptor possessing intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity and the alpha and gammac subunit of the heterodimeric IL-4 receptor utilizing the Janus kinase family of nonreceptor protein kinases to tyrosine phosphorylate downstream targets. Both receptors share many of the components of the PI 3-kinase signal transduction pathway, converging at the level of insulin receptor substrate-1 or insulin receptor subtrate-2 (formally known as 4PS, or IL-4 Phosphorylated Substrate). Our investigations with IGF-I and IL-4 suggest that PI 3-kinase inhibits apoptosis by maintaining high levels of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2. The sharing of common activation molecules, despite vastly different protein structures of their receptors, forms a molecular explanation for the possibility of cross talk between IL-4 and IGF-I in regulating many of the events associated with hematopoietic differentiation, proliferation and survival.

Abstract
We previously demonstrated TNF toxicity, at high TNF doses or in the presence of actinomycin D, in the N1E-115 neuronal cell line (N1Es), which expresses only the 55 kDa TNF receptor (TNFR). To determine whether presence of the 75 kDa TNFR increases N1E sensitivity to TNF toxicity, cells were transfected with a 75 kDa TNFR expression construct. However, 75 kDa TNFR protein expression was undetectable in stably transfected N1Es. Further investigation revealed endogenous membrane-associated TNF in this neuronal line. Co-transfection with beta-galactosidase and the 75 kDa TNFR or empty vector (pcDNA3) indicated cell loss in the 75 kDa TNFR-transfected population relative to vector-transfected populations, while inhibition of membrane-associated TNF with a neutralizing antibody led to increased 75 kDa TNFR expression in transiently transfected N1Es. We conclude that neutralization of membrane-associated TNF inhibits its interaction with the introduced 75 kDa TNFR, increasing neuronal survival and promoting 75 kDa TNFR expression. Induced 75 kDa TNFR expression in the presence of membrane-associated TNF and the 55 kDa TNFR results in lymphocyte cell death [J.K. Lazdins, M. Grell, M.R. Walker, K. Woods-Cook, P. Scheurich, K. Pfizenmaier, Membrane tumor necrosis factor (TNF) induced cooperative signaling of the TNFR60 and TNFR80 favors induction of cell death rather than virus production in HIV-infected T cells, J. Exp. Med. 185 (1997) 81-90]. This report demonstrates that membrane-associated TNF and the 75 kDa TNFR similarly contribute to neuronal cell death.

Abstract
IL-1alpha and IL-1beta have potent effects on the central nervous system resulting in fever, activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and behavioural depression. These effects have mainly been studied in rats, using recombinant human and mouse IL-1. Because IL-1alpha and IL-1beta show some species specificity in the potency of their biological activities, the objective of the present work was to directly compare the effects of recombinant rat IL-1alpha and IL-1beta in the rat system as a first step to dissect out the mechanisms that are involved in these effects. In vitro, recombinant rat IL-1alpha and IL-1beta bound with the same affinity as human IL-1 to the rat insulinoma Rin m5F cell line that mainly expresses type I IL-1 receptors. This binding activated IL-1 receptors, as shown by induction of the synthesis of TNF-alpha mRNA. In vivo, recombinant rat IL-1alpha and IL-1beta enhanced body temperature, increased plasma levels of corticosterone and ACTH, and depressed social behaviour. All these effects were obtained at doses 100-1,000 fold lower when IL-1 was injected centrally than when it was administered peripherally, indicating that they are centrally mediated. The relative potencies of recombinant rat IL-1alpha and IL-1beta were not the same depending on the endpoint and the route of injection, indicating that different mechanisms are likely to be involved in the various effects of IL-1 on the brain.

Abstract
Interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) mediates many of the behavioral responses to infection and inflammation, and IL-1beta-converting enzyme (ICE) processes intracellular IL-1beta, leading to its maturation and secretion. Here we demonstrate that intracerebroventricular injections of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) produced a greater reduction in both food intake and food-motivated behavior in wild-type compared with ICE-deficient (ICE -/-) mice. This defect occurred although ICE -/- mice were able to fully respond to intracerebroventricular injections of IL-1beta. In contrast, ICE -/- mice remained fully responsive to intraperitoneal injections of LPS. These results indicate that brain, but not peripheral, IL-1beta plays a critical role in the depression in food intake that occurs during inflammation.

Abstract
A decline in plasma concentrations of both growth hormone and IGF-I occurs during aging of humans and rodents, and this is accompanied by involution of the thymus gland. Exogenous growth hormone induces the synthesis of IGF-I, which acts on bone marrow-derived hematopoietic progenitors of the myeloid and lymphoid lineages to promote their replication and survival. The increase in survival of these cells is caused by the ability of IGF-I to inhibit their apoptotic death. In contrast to the multipotential colony-stimulating-factor IL-3, inhibition of apoptosis by IGF-I requires the activation of the critical intracellular effector PI 3-kinase. These data establish that hematopoietic progenitors can use more than one intracellular signaling pathway in order to maintain their survival. The data also extend the original hypothesis that IGF-I shares with the colony-stimulating factors the properties of promoting DNA synthesis and inhibiting programmed cell death. Collectively, these data establish that hematopoietic progenitor cells are important targets for IGF-I, and this is likely to be important in understanding thymic aging.

Abstract
Peripheral and central injections of interleukin-1 (IL-1) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induce the expression of proinflammatory cytokines in the brain and have profound depressing effects on spontaneous and learned behaviors. These effects are mediated by vagal afferents, because they are abrogated by section of the vagus nerves at the subdiaphragmatic level in rats and mice. Vagotomy does not interfere with the synthesis and release of proinflammatory cytokines at the periphery, because plasma and tissue levels of interleukin-1 of vagotomized animals are similar to those of sham-operated animals. Furthermore, the consequences of vagotomy on the host behavioral response to peripheral cytokines are specific to the intraperitoneal route of administration of cytokines because vagotomized animals are still able to respond to IL-1 injected intravenously, subcutaneously, and into the lateral ventricle of the brain. Finally, substance P and cholecystokinin do not appear to play a key role in the transmission of the immune message to the brain because pretreatment by capsaicin or by specific antagonists of CCKA and CCKB receptors does not alter the behavioral effects of LPS and IL-1. All these findings point to the role of neural afferents for transmitting the immune message from the periphery to the brain.

Abstract
To examine the role of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF alpha) in mediating leptin secretion during an immunological challenge, we studied the effects of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and TNF alpha on leptin secretion in endotoxin-sensitive C3H/HeOuJ (OuJ) mice, endotoxin-insensitive C3H/HeJ (HeJ) mice, and primary adipocytes cultured from both. Intraperitoneal injection of LPS increased plasma concentrations of TNF alpha and leptin in OuJ mice, but not in HeJ mice, suggesting a causal relationship between the induction of TNF alpha and leptin. Consistent with this idea, i.p. injection of recombinant murine TNF alpha increased plasma leptin in both OuJ and HeJ mice. To determine whether TNF alpha induces leptin secretion by acting directly on fat cells, primary adipocytes from OuJ and HeJ mice were cultured in the presence of TNF alpha or LPS. Whereas LPS was without effect on leptin secretion by adipocytes, TNF alpha induced a marked increase in the cell supernatant leptin concentration. These data demonstrate that TNF alpha plays a role in regulating the increase in leptin caused by LPS. Moreover, they show that TNF alpha can act directly on adipocytes to stimulate leptin secretion. Our results are consistent with the emerging view that leptin is a key hormone coupling immune system activity to energy balance.

Abstract
Interleukin-1beta (IL1beta) peripheral activities are mediated by type I IL1 receptors (IL1RI), whereas type II IL1 receptors (IL1RII) act as 'decoy' targets. To study the functionality of IL1RII in the brain, mice were treated with an intracerebroventricular injection of a neutralising MoAb directed against IL1RII (4E2, 1 microg) followed by recombinant rat IL1beta at a dose (2 ng) that produced a moderate but significant decrease of food intake 1 h 30 min after injection. The administration of 4E2 to IL-1beta treated mice significantly potentiated IL1beta-induced decrease in food intake without altering hypothermia. The effects of IL1beta were abrogated in the positive control group treated with IL1ra (2 microg, i.c.v). These results suggest that brain IL1RII down-regulate the effects of IL1beta on its cell targets in the brain.

Abstract
In the immune system, interleukin (IL)-1 beta effects are mediated by the type I IL-1 receptors (IL-1RI), whereas the type II IL-1 receptors (IL-1RII) act as inhibitory receptors. IL-1RI and IL-1RII are also present in the brain. To study their functionality in the brain, mice were centrally treated with neutralizing monoclonal antibody (MAb) directed against IL-1RI (35F5, 1 microgram) or against IL-1RII (4E2, 2 micrograms) and were centrally injected with recombinant rat IL-1 beta at a dose (2 ng) that decreased social exploration. Only 35F5 was effective in abrogating the behavioral effect of IL-1 beta. Moreover, 4E2 (1 microgram i.c.v.) did not potentiate the behavioral response to a subthreshold dose of IL-1 beta (1 ng i.c.v.). To examine the ability of brain IL-1RI to mediate the effects of endogenous IL-1 beta, mice were centrally treated with 35F5 (4 micrograms) and peripherally injected with IL-1 beta (1 microgram). Like IL-1 receptor antagonist (4 micrograms i.c.v.), 35F5 abrogated the effects of IL-1 beta. These results suggest that brain IL-1RI mediates the behavioral effects of IL-1 beta in mice.
