Clozapine suppresses NADPH oxidase activation, counteracts cytosolic H 2O 2, and triggers early onset mitochondrial dysfunction during adipogenesis of human liposarcoma SW872 cells. Redox Biol 2023; 67:102915.

Abstract
Long-term treatment of schizophrenia with clozapine (CLZ), an atypical antipsychotic drug, is associated with an increased incidence of metabolic disorders mediated by poorly understood mechanisms. We herein report that CLZ, while slowing down the morphological changes and lipid accumulation occurring during SW872 cell adipogenesis, also causes an early (day 3) inhibition of the expression/nuclear translocation of CAAT/enhancer-binding protein β and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ. Under the same conditions, CLZ blunts NADPH oxidase-derived reactive oxygen species (ROS) by a dual mechanism involving enzyme inhibition and ROS scavenging. These effects were accompanied by hampered activation of the nuclear factor (erythroid-derived2)-like 2 (Nrf2)-dependent antioxidant responses compared to controls, and by an aggravated formation of mitochondrial superoxide. CLZ failed to exert ROS scavenging activities in the mitochondrial compartment but appeared to actively scavenge cytosolic H2O2 derived from mitochondrial superoxide. The early formation of mitochondrial ROS promoted by CLZ was also associated with signs of mitochondrial dysfunction. Some of the above findings were recapitulated using mouse embryonic fibroblasts. We conclude that the NADPH oxidase inhibitory and cytosolic ROS scavenging activities of CLZ slow down SW872 cell adipogenesis and suppress their Nrf2 activation, an event apparently connected with increased mitochondrial ROS formation, which is associated with insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome. Thus, the cellular events characterised herein may help to shed light on the more detailed molecular mechanisms explaining some of the adverse metabolic effects of CLZ.

Abstract
Footpad infection of C3HeB/FeJ mice with Leishmania amazonensis leads to chronic lesions accompanied by large parasite loads. Co-infecting these animals with L. major leads to induction of an effective Th1 immune response that can resolve these lesions. This cross-protection can be recapitulated in vitro by using immune cells from L. major-infected animals to effectively activate L. amazonensis-infected macrophages to kill the parasite. We have shown previously that the B cell population and their IgG2a antibodies are required for effective cross-protection. Here we demonstrate that, in contrast to L. major, killing L. amazonensis parasites is dependent upon FcRγ common-chain and NADPH oxidase-generated superoxide from infected macrophages. Superoxide production coincided with killing of L. amazonensis at five days post-activation, suggesting that opsonization of the parasites was not a likely mechanism of the antibody response. Therefore we tested the hypothesis that non-specific immune complexes could provide a mechanism of FcRγ common-chain/NADPH oxidase dependent parasite killing. Macrophage activation in response to soluble IgG2a immune complexes, IFN-γ and parasite antigen was effective in significantly reducing the percentage of macrophages infected with L. amazonensis. These results define a host protection mechanism effective during Leishmania infection and demonstrate for the first time a novel means by which IgG antibodies can enhance killing of an intracellular pathogen.

Abstract
Extracellular superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD) is the major antioxidant enzyme present in the vascular wall, and is responsible for both the protection of vessels from oxidative stress and for the modulation of vascular tone. Concentrations of EC-SOD in human pulmonary arteries are very high relative to other tissues, and the expression of EC-SOD appears highly restricted to smooth muscle. The molecular basis for this smooth muscle-specific expression of EC-SOD is not known. Here we assessed the role of epigenetic factors in regulating the cell-specific and IFN-γ-inducible expression of EC-SOD in human pulmonary artery cells. The analysis of CpG site methylation within the promoter and coding regions of the EC-SOD gene demonstrated higher levels of DNA methylation within the distal promoter region in endothelial cells compared with smooth muscle cells. Exposure of both cell types to DNA demethylation agents reactivated the transcription of EC-SOD in endothelial cells alone. However, exposure to the histone deacetylase inhibitor trichostatin A (TSA) significantly induced EC-SOD gene expression in both endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells. Concentrations of EC-SOD mRNA were also induced up to 45-fold by IFN-γ in smooth muscle cells, but not in endothelial cells. The IFN-γ-dependent expression of EC-SOD was regulated by the Janus tyrosine kinase/signal transducers and activators of transcription proteins signaling pathway. Simultaneous exposure to TSA and IFN-γ produced a synergistic effect on the induction of EC-SOD gene expression, but only in endothelial cells. These findings provide strong evidence that EC-SOD cell-specific and IFN-γ-inducible expression in pulmonary artery cells is regulated, to a major degree, by epigenetic mechanisms that include histone acetylation and DNA methylation.

Abstract
The chemiluminescent (CL) response of interferon-gamma-treated U937 (IFN-U937) cells to sensitized target cells has been used to detect red cell, platelet and granulocyte antibodies. A clone of U937 cells was selected which expressed Fc receptor I (Fc gamma RI) and which, after incubation with IFN-gamma for 72 h, was capable of generating high levels of lucigenin-enhanced CL. The CL responses of IFN-U937 cells and peripheral blood human monocytes to sensitized red cells, platelets or granulocytes were then compared. Assays using monocytes or IFN-U937 cells were of comparable sensitivity for detection of antibodies against all three types of target cell. In addition, the use of IFN-U937 cells reduced interassay variation and simplified assay performance. The potential clinical usefulness of these CL assays was suggested by the ability of both monocytes and IFN-U937 cells to respond to red cells, platelets or granulocytes sensitized with sera from pregnant women whose babies had either haemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN), alloimmune thrombocytopenia or alloimmune neutropenia respectively. In addition, monocytes and IFN-U937 cells both responded to red cells sensitized with antibodies against a variety of specificities of assumed (although not documented) clinical significance for blood transfusion recipients. In contrast, monocytes and IFN-U937 cells responded only weakly to red cells sensitized with either anti-D in sera from mothers of babies unaffected by HDN, or with antisera containing high titre antibodies with specificities not normally associated with significantly reduced red cell survival.

Abstract
Leukotrienes (LTs) are lipid mediators that participate in inflammatory diseases and innate immune function. We sought to investigate the importance of LTs in regulating the microbicidal activity of alveolar macrophages (AMs) and the molecular mechanisms by which this occurs. The role of LTs in enhancing AM microbicidal activity was evaluated pharmacologically and genetically using in vitro challenge with Klebsiella pneumoniae. Exogenous LTs increased AM microbicidal activity in a dose- and receptor-dependent manner, and endogenous production of LTs was necessary for optimal killing. Leukotriene B4 (LTB4) was more potent than cysteinyl LTs. An important role for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADPH) oxidase in LT-induced microbicidal activity was indicated by the fact that bacterial killing was abrogated by the NADPH oxidase inhibitor diphenyleneiodonium (DPI; 10 microM) and in AMs derived from gp91phox-deficient mice. By contrast, LT-induced microbicidal activity was independent of the generation of nitric oxide. LTs increased H2O2 production, and LTB4 was again the more potent agonist. Both classes of LTs elicited translocation of p47phox to the cell membrane, and LTB4 induced phosphorylation of p47phox in a manner dependent on protein kinase C-delta (PKC-delta) activity. In addition, the enhancement of microbicidal activity by LTs was also dependent on PKC-delta activity. Our results demonstrate that LTs, especially LTB4, enhanceAM microbicidal activity through the PKC-delta-dependent activation of NADPH oxidase.

Abstract
The high-affinity IgG receptor, FcgammaRI (CD64), is constitutively expressed exclusively on professional APCs. Human FcgammaRI binds monomeric IgG with high affinity and is, therefore, saturated in vivo. The binding of IgG to FcgammaRI causes receptor recycling, while Abs that cross-link FcgammaRI cause rapid down-modulation of surface FcgammaRI. Because studies performed in the absence of ligand may not be representative of FcgammaRI modulation in vivo, we investigated the ability of FcgammaRI-cross-linking Abs and non-cross-linking derivatives to modulate FcgammaRI in the presence and absence of ligand. In the absence of ligand mAb H22 and wH22xeGFP, an enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP)-labeled fusion protein of H22, cross-linked and rapidly down-modulated surface FcgammaRI on the human myeloid cell line, U937, and its high FcgammaRI-expressing subclone, 10.6. This effect was dependent on the concentration of fusion protein and the level of FcgammaRI expression and correlated with internalization of both wH22xeGFP and FcgammaRI, itself, as assessed by confocal microscopy. A single-chain Fv version, sFv22xeGFP, which does not cross-link FcgammaRI, was unable to modulate FcgammaRI in the absence of IgG. However, if ligand was present, treatment with either monovalent or cross-linking fusion protein led to intracellular receptor accumulation. These findings suggest at least two alternate mechanisms of internalization that are influenced by ligand and demonstrate the physiologic potential of FcgammaRI to transport a large antigenic load into APCs for processing. These studies may lead to the development of better FcgammaRI-targeted vaccines, as well as therapies to down-modulate FcR involved in autoimmune diseases.

Abstract
The high-affinity receptor for IgG (CD64 or FcgammaRI) is constitutively expressed exclusively on professional APCs (monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells). When Ag is targeted specifically to FcgammaRI, Ag presentation is markedly enhanced, although the mechanism of this enhancement is unknown. In an effort to elucidate the pathways involved in FcgammaRI targeting, we developed a model targeted Ag using enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP). This molecule, wH22xeGFP, consists of the entire humanized anti-FcgammaRI mAb H22 with eGFP genetically fused to the C-terminal end of each CH3 domain. wH22xeGFP binds within the ligand-binding region by its Fc end, as well as outside the ligand-binding region by its Fab ends, thereby cross-linking FcgammaRI. Confocal microscopy studies revealed that wH22xeGFP was rapidly internalized by the high-FcgammaRI-expressing cell line U937 10.6, but did not associate with intracellular proteins Rab4, Rab5a, or Lamp-1, suggesting that the targeted fusion protein was not localized in early endosomes, recycling vesicles, or lysosomes. Interestingly, wH22xeGFP was found colocalized with intracellular MHC class I, suggesting that FcgammaRI-targeted Ags may converge upon a class I processing pathway. These data are in agreement with studies in the mouse showing that FcgammaRI targeting can lead to Ag-specific activation of cytotoxic T cells. Data obtained from these studies should lead to a better understanding of how Ags targeted to FcgammaRI are processed and under what conditions they lead to presentation of antigenic peptides in MHC class I, as a foundation for the use of FcgammaRI-targeted Ags as vaccines.

Abstract
P48 is a 48-kDa monocytic differentiation/activation factor which was originally identified in the conditioned medium of the Reh and other leukemia cell lines and has recently been shown to be a Mycoplasma fermentans gene product. Previously, conditioned medium P48 has been shown to induce differentiation of HL-60 (human promyelocytic leukemia) cells. Recently our laboratory isolated cDNA clones for P48 from Reh cells and genomic clones from Mycoplasma fermentans and expressed the recombinant protein as a maltose binding protein (MBP) fusion protein in E. coli. In this report we present the initial characterization of this recombinant P48 fusion protein (rP48-MBP). We show that rP48-MBP induces differentiation of HL-60, U937 (human histiocytic lymphoma), and M1 (mouse myeloid leukemia) cell lines. Interestingly, rP48-MBP also induces apoptosis of U937 and HL-60 cells as assessed by terminal transferase (TUNEL) assays. This is the first report of induction of apoptosis by a Mycoplasma gene product. P48 is a Mycoplasma-derived immunomodulatory molecule which has differentiation and apoptosis-inducing activities and may be important in the pathophysiology of Mycoplasma infections. The recombinant protein may be useful in studying the mechanisms of differentiation, cytokine production, and apoptosis in malignant and nonmalignant hematopoietic cells.

Abstract
P48 is a 48 kd monocytic differentiation/activation factor previously purified from the conditioned medium of the Reh human pre-B cell leukemia line. It induces differentiation of HL-60 promyelocytic leukemia cells along the monocytic pathway and production of IL1, TNF-alpha and IL6 in human monocytes and monocytic cell lines. Recently our laboratory isolated cDNA clones for P48 from Reh cells and genomic clones from Mycoplasma fermentans DNA and showed that P48 is a M. fermentans gene product. In this paper we report the analysis of P48 expression at the DNA, mRNA and protein levels in different Mycoplasma species. Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) analysis of extracted DNA using P48-specific oligonucleotide primers revealed P48 sequences in M. fermentans but not M. hominis, M. iowae, M. genitalium or M. capricolum. Southern analysis of Mycoplasma DNAs revealed hybridizing bands in M. fermentans and M. capricolum under low stringency, but only in M. fermentans under high stringency. Consistent with this, Northern blot studies revealed a single hybridizing transcript in M. fermentans but not in other Mycoplasma species tested. However, Western blot studies with anti-P48 antibodies revealed P48 antigenic material in M. fermentans, as well as M. hominis and M. iowae. These studies demonstrate that the gene for P48 is derived from M. fermentans or a closely related species and is absent in these other species tested. However, the P48 protein exhibits shared antigenic determinants among several Mycoplasma species which presently are of unknown function or significance. P48 is a Mycoplasma -derived immunomodulatory molecule which may be important in Mycoplasma pathophysiology and may be useful in understanding human haematopoietic differentiation and the control of cytokine biosynthesis.

Abstract
Abstract
Cbl-Crkl and Crkl-C3G interactions have been implicated in T cell and B cell receptor signaling and in the regulation of the small GTPase, Rap1. Recent evidence suggests that Rap1 plays a prominent role in the regulation of immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) signaling. To gain insight into the role of Crkl in myeloid ITAM signaling, we investigated Cbl-Crkl and Crkl-C3G interactions following FcγRI aggregation in U937IF cells. FcγRI cross-linking of U937IF cells results in the tyrosine phosphorylation of Cbl, Crkl, and Hef-1, an increase in the association of Crkl with Cbl via direct SH2 domain interaction and increased Crkl-Hef-1 binding. Crkl constitutively binds to the guanine nucleotide-releasing protein, C3G, via direct SH3 domain binding. Our data show that distinct Cbl-Crkl and Crkl-C3G complexes exist in myeloid cells, suggesting that these complexes may modulate distinct signaling events. Anti-Crkl immunoprecipitations demonstrate that the ITAM-containing γ subunit of FcγRI is induced to form a complex with the Crkl protein, and Crkl binds to the cytoskeletal protein, Hef-1. The induced association of Crkl with Cbl, Hef-1, and FcγRIγ after FcγRI activation and the constitutive association between C3G and Crkl provide the first evidence that a FcγRIγ-Crkl-C3G complex may link ITAM receptors to the activation of Rap1 in myeloid cells.

Abstract
P48 is a 48 kDa monocytic differentiation/activation factor previously purified from the conditioned medium of the Reh human pre-B cell leukaemia cell line. It induces growth arrest and differentiation of HL-60 human promyelocytic leukaemia cells along the monocytic pathway and the production of the cytokines interleukin 1, tumour necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin 6 in human monocytes and monocytic cell lines. The cDNA for P48 was cloned from Reh cellular RNA using 3' reverse amplification of cDNA ends. Southern blot probing with P48 cDNA revealed hybridization with DNA from Reh and Molt-4 cells, but not with DNA from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Subsequent studies using PCR and Southern analysis revealed P48 sequences in DNA isolated from Mycoplasma fermentans but not M. hominis, M.iowae, M.synoviae or M.lypophilum. Although initial studies using Mycoplasma culture and hybridization techniques had failed to reveal Mycoplasma infection in our Reh and Molt-4 cell lines, subsequent PCR studies using Mycoplasma genus-specific rRNA primrs revealed Mycoplasma sequences in these cell lines. Using the P48 cDNA probe, we isolated a genomic clone from M. fermentans DNA which was found to be 98.5% identical with the P48 cDNA clone, and the deduced amino acid sequence agreed with N-terminal microsequencing data for P48 protein purified from the Reh cell line conditioned medium. The 5' end of the gene has a number of consensus sequences characteristic of prokaryotic genes, and the deduced amino acid sequence has a number of features suggesting that P48 is a lipoprotein. The P48 cDNA was expressed in pMAL in Escherichia coli, and the 60 kDa expressed fusion protein was found to react with anti-P48 antibodies on Western blots. This is consistent with a pMAL fusion protein representing the sum of the 42 kDa maltose-binding protein and 18 kDa of P48 recombinant protein, suggesting that native P48 has significant post-translational modification. Consistent with this, Northern blot studies revealed a single 1 kb transcript. The recombinant fusion protein was found to possess anti-proliferative activity against HL-60 cells, and antibodies against recombinant P48 were found to block the biological activity of native P48 isolated from conditioned medium. These studies demonstrate that P48, a molecule with immunomodulatory and haematopoietic differentiation activities, is derived from M. fermentans or a closely related species. P48 may be important in the pathophysiology of Mycoplasma infections and may be useful in dissecting the mechanisms involved in mammalian haematopoietic cell differentiation, immune function and cytokine biosynthesis.

Abstract
This study shows that aggregation of U937 cell high affinity IgG Fc receptor (Fc gamma RI) results in the transient tyrosine phosphorylation of Fc gamma RI gamma-chain but not the phosphorylation of gamma-chains associated with nonaggregated IgA Fc receptors (Fc alpha R) on the same cells. Thus, normally, tyrosine phosphorylation of gamma-chains is limited to FcR in aggregates. In contrast, aggregation of Fc gamma RI in the presence of vanadate induced the sustained tyrosine phosphorylation of Fc gamma RI gamma-chains and the rapid and extensive phosphorylation of nonaggregated Fc alpha R gamma-chains and low affinity IgG Fc receptors (Fc gamma RII). This global phosphorylation of motifs on nonaggregated FcR was also detected upon aggregation of Fc alpha R or Fc gamma RII, which induced the phosphorylation of nonaggregated Fc gamma RI gamma-chains. Vanadate prevented dephosphorylation of proteins and increased kinase activity in stimulated cells. Evidence failed to support alternative explanations such as acquisition of phospho-gamma through subunit exchange or a coalescence of nonaggregated with aggregated FcR. It is likely, therefore, that activated kinases interacted with nonaggregated FcR in stimulated cells. Pervanadate induced the tyrosine phosphorylation of gamma-chains in the absence of FcR cross-linking, indicating that the kinases could be activated by phosphatase inhibition and could react with nonaggregated substrates. We conclude that under normal conditions there is a vanadate-sensitive mechanism that prevents tyrosine phosphorylation of nonaggregated FcR gamma-chain motifs in activated cells, restricting their phosphorylation to aggregates.

Abstract
Human type 1 Fc gamma receptors (Fc gamma RI) bind with high affinity (Kd = approximately 10(-9) M) Fc regions of monomeric IgG1 and IgG3. As demonstrated in this report, interaction of IgG-Fc with the ligand binding site on Fc gamma RI alters its capacity for aggregation-dependent signaling. This Fc-dependence was demonstrated in normal monocytes and U937-10.6 cells exposed to monomeric IgG and then to anti-Fc gamma RI F(ab')2 that cross-link the receptor. Using O2- production to measure cell signaling, we found that binding by high affinity IgGs of various species, as well as by murine hybrid IgGs containing only one high affinity heavy chain, resulted in a marked increase in Fc gamma RI-mediated signaling. Preaggregated Fc gamma RI/IgG had a ratio of one. IgG binding after aggregation of unligated Fc gamma RI did not restore signaling. Dose responses indicated that concentrations of IgG that saturated Fc gamma RI optimized transductional activity. The inclusion of unligated with ligated Fc gamma RI in aggregates depressed activity, indicating a lack of trans-activation of unligated Fc gamma RI. Significantly, IgG-binding markedly increased aggregation-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of Fc gamma RI gamma-chains and the association of tyrosine phosphorylated Syk. Thus, the consequences of IgG-Fc binding were increases in aggregation-dependent phosphorylation of Fc gamma RI gamma-chains, recruitment of pp72Syk to Fc gamma RI, and signaling of the NADPH oxidase pathway.

Abstract
Interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) is the most potent known lymphokine for activating macrophages and has been shown to induce expression of HLA-DR in THP-1 cells, a monocytic tumor cell line which expresses many of the properties of monocytes, in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Experiments were designed to examine, by FACS analysis and by measurement of messenger RNA levels, the molecular mechanism regulating the expression of HLA-DR molecules. The expression of HLA-DR molecules induced by IFN-gamma was blocked by the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors sphingosine, staurosporine, and H7. H7 when added up to 20 hr after the initial stimulation with IFN-gamma prevented the further expression of HLA-DR. The general kinase inhibitors H8, H9, and HA1004, all less potent PKC inhibitors than H7, did not block the IFN-gamma-induced expression of HLA-DR at the concentrations employed. W7, a calmodulin antagonist, but not a PKC inhibitor, was also unable to prevent the IFN-gamma-induced expression of HLA-DR. Treatment of THP-1 with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), a direct activator of PKC, alone or with Ca2+ ionophore A23187, was unable to induce HLA-DR expression. However, pretreatment with PMA for 24 hr prior to IFN-gamma stimulation decreased the IFN-gamma-induced expression of HLA-DR without decreasing IFN-gamma receptor levels. These results suggest that PKC plays a significant role in the IFN-gamma-induced signal transduction pathway leading to the expression of HLA-DR in cells of the mononuclear phagocytic lineage, and that PKC activity is required throughout the course of events leading to the actual expression of HLA-DR.
