Abstract
Autologous biological cellular preparations have materialized as a growing area of medical advancement in interventional (orthopedic) practices and surgical interventions to provide an optimal tissue healing environment, particularly in tissues where standard healing is disrupted and repair and ultimately restoration of function is at risk. These cellular therapies are often referred to as orthobiologics and are derived from patient's own tissues to prepare point of care platelet-rich plasma (PRP), bone marrow concentrate (BMC), and adipose tissue concentrate (ATC). Orthobiological preparations are biological materials comprised of a wide variety of cell populations, cytokines, growth factors, molecules, and signaling cells. They can modulate and influence many other resident cells after they have been administered in specific diseased microenvironments. Jointly, the various orthobiological cell preparations are proficient to counteract persistent inflammation, respond to catabolic reactions, and reinstate tissue homeostasis. Ultimately, precisely delivered orthobiologics with a proper dose and bioformulation will contribute to tissue repair. Progress has been made in understanding orthobiological technologies where the safety and relatively easy manipulation of orthobiological treatment tools has been demonstrated in clinical applications. Although more positive than negative patient outcome results have been registered in the literature, definitive and accepted standards to prepare specific cellular orthobiologics are still lacking. To promote significant and consistent clinical outcomes, we will present a review of methods for implementing dosing strategies, using bioformulations tailored to the pathoanatomic process of the tissue, and adopting variable preparation and injection volume policies. By optimizing the dose and specificity of orthobiologics, local cellular synergistic behavior will increase, potentially leading to better pain killing effects, effective immunomodulation, control of inflammation, and (neo) angiogenesis, ultimately contributing to functionally restored body movement patterns.

Abstract
We reported the expression of angiopoietin Tie2 receptor on human neutrophils and the capacity of angiopoietins (Ang1 and Ang2) to induce pro-inflammatory activities, such as platelet-activating factor synthesis, β2-integrin activation and neutrophil migration. Recently, we observed differential effects between both angiopoietins, namely, the capacity of Ang1, but not Ang2, to promote rapid interleukin-8 synthesis and release, as well as neutrophil viability. Herein, we addressed whether Ang1 and/or Ang2 could modulate the synthesis and release of macrophage inflammatory protein-1β (MIP-1β) by neutrophils. Neutrophils were isolated from blood of healthy volunteers; intracellular and extracellular MIP-1β protein concentrations were assessed by ELISA. After 24 hours, the basal intracellular and extracellular MIP-1β protein concentrations were ≈500 and 100 pg/106 neutrophils, respectively. Treatment with Ang1 (10 nM) increased neutrophil intracellular and extracellular MIP-1β concentrations by 310 and 388% respectively. Pretreatment with PI3K (LY294002), p38 MAPK (SB203580) and MEK (U0126) inhibitors completely inhibited Ang1-mediated increase of MIP-1β intracellular and extracellular protein levels. Pretreatment with NF-κB complex inhibitors, namely Bay11-7085 and IKK inhibitor VII or with a transcription inhibitor (actinomycin D) and protein synthesis inhibitor (cycloheximide), did also abrogate Ang1-mediated increase of MIP-1β intracellular and extracellular protein levels. We validated by RT-qPCR analyses the effect of Ang1 on the induction of MIP-1β mRNA levels. Our study is the first one to report Ang1 capacity to induce MIP-1β gene expression, protein synthesis and release from neutrophils, and that these effects are mediated by PI3K, p38 MAPK and MEK activation and downstream NF-κB activation.

Risk factor analysis for bone marrow histiocytic hyperplasia with hemophagocytosis: an autopsy study. Virchows Arch 2014; 465:109-18.

Abstract
The excessive release of inflammatory cytokines occasionally induces life-threatening hemophagocytosis referred to as hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS). A similar condition, histiocytic hyperplasia with hemophagocytosis (HHH), is often seen in bone marrow collected during autopsy. Unlike HPS, the pathogenesis of HHH remains unclear. Therefore, we performed a clinicopathological analysis of HHH from 70 autopsy cases at the University of Fukui Hospital. HHH was detected in 29 of 70 autopsies (41.4 %) and was significantly complicated with hematological diseases (p < 0.05) and sepsis (p < 0.05). The percentage of macrophages in bone marrow (BM) nucleated cells was significantly increased in HHH (p < 0.001). Data from medical records indicated no significant changes, except for the minimum values of white blood cell counts (p < 0.05) and platelet counts (p < 0.05) in HHH patients as compared with non-HHH patients. Concentrations of inflammatory mediators including IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-8 were significantly increased in HHH patients. Multivariate risk factor analysis identified hematological diseases (odds ratio (OR), 11.71), ≥15 % BM macrophages (OR, 9.42), sepsis (OR, 7.77), and high serum IL-6 levels (OR, 1.00) as independent risk factors for HHH. HHH with hypocellular BM, the most aggressive form of HHH, was recognized in 8 of 29 HHH patients and was associated with ≥25 % BM macrophages (p < 0.001), leukocytopenia (p < 0.05), and high IL-8 levels (p < 0.05). None of the HHH patients fulfilled the diagnostic criteria of HPS. These findings suggest that HHH is a different entity from HPS and that it preferentially develops under conditions of excessive inflammation and its associated risks, such as hematological diseases and sepsis.

Abstract
IL-1β and TNFα participate in a wide range of immunoregulatory activities. The overproduction of these cytokines can result in inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Monocytes are the main producers of both cytokines. In contrast, studies with highly purified polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) showed their inability to synthesize IL-1β and TNFα. Mature monocytes and PMN are derived from the same precursors. However, the reason for the differential IL-1β and TNFα expression is not elucidated. Our study investigates the epigenetic mechanisms that may explain this apparent discrepancy. The expression and promoter accessibilities of IL-1β and TNFα genes of primary and in vitro differentiated monocytes and PMN and their common precursors were compared. The effects of histone deacetylase (HDAC)-inhibition by trichostatin A (TSA) on IL-1β and TNFα expression and their promoter structures were measured in promyeloid HL-60 cells. Cytokine expression was assessed by real-time PCR and ELISA. Chromatin structures were analyzed using chromatin accessibility by real-time PCR (CHART) assay. The proximal IL-1β promoter was remodeled into an open conformation during monopoiesis, but not granulopoiesis. Although stimulation-dependent, remodeling of the TNFα promoter was again only observed in monocytes. TSA activated IL-1β and TNFα expression and supported chromatin remodeling of their promoters in HL-60 cells. The ability to express IL-1β and TNFα is linked to a cell type specific promoter structure, which is established during monocytic but not granulocytic differentiation. The participation of acetylation in IL-1β and TNFα promoter activation shed new light on the regulation of IL-1β or TNFα expression. These data may have implications for understanding the progression from normal to disease conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), especially expressed on monocytes/macrophages, connects microbial and sterile innate immune activation. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from Gram-negative bacteria and several endogenous molecules, among others saturated fatty acids (SFAs), are able to induce signalling through this receptor. Downstream inflammatory cytokines orchestrate the immune response. Our aim was to investigate how long-lasting multifactorial stress affects Gram-negative signalling and search for possible correlations between cytokine production and TLR4 expression or SFA concentration. METHODS Eight healthy males were studied during a 7-day ranger-training course with semi-continuous physical strain, together with energy and sleep restrictions. Blood drawn on days 0, 3, 5 and 7 was incubated ex vivo for 6 h with or without LPS 10 ng/mL, whereupon surface expression of TLR4 on CD14⁺ monocytes and supernatant concentrations of inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6) were measured. In addition, plasma free fatty acids were quantified. RESULTS Monocyte TLR4 expression was elevated throughout the course (p < 0.05 vs. baseline). Corresponding results were found for SFAs. The concentration of TNF-α increased significantly on day 3 and thereafter normalized, and a similar pattern was seen for IL-1β. No correlations were found between cytokine concentrations and monocyte TLR4 expression or plasma SFAs. CONCLUSION Multifactorial stress significantly affected ex vivo production of TNF-α and monocyte surface expression of TLR4. In addition, mobilization of fat resulted in increased plasma concentrations of SFAs. No associations between inflammatory cytokines and monocyte TLR4 expression or SFAs were found.

Abstract
Burn induces myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), a heterogeneous population of immature polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) and monocytes, which protect against infection. Previous work from our laboratory demonstrated that inflammatory monocytes (iMos) were the major MDSC source of TNF-α in the postburn spleen, and we hypothesized that they were also the major source of postburn IL-10. To test this hypothesis, we examined cytokine production by postburn CCR2 knockout (KO) mice, which have fewer iMos than burn wild-type (WT) splenocytes, but equal numbers of PMNs and F4/80 macrophages. Using cell sorting and/or intracellular cytokine techniques, we examined IL-10 production by postburn PMNs and iMos. Finally, we compared IL-10 production by postburn PMNs and iMos with culture-derived MDSCs. Splenocytes from postburn CCR2 KO mice produced less IL-6 and TNF-α than WT burn splenocytes in response to LPS, but KO and WT burn splenocytes produced equal amounts of IL-10 in response to peptidoglycan. Depletion of PMNs from postburn splenocytes led to reductions in IL-10 and increases in IL-6 and TNF-α in response to peptidoglycan, but not in response to LPS. Sorting or intracellular cytokine techniques gave consistent results: Burn PMNs made more IL-10 than sham PMNs and also more IL-10 than burn or sham iMos. Polymorphonuclear neutrophil and iMos subpopulations from culture-derived MDSCs produced the same cytokine profiles in response to LPS and peptidoglycan as did the PMNs and iMos from postburn spleens: PMNs made IL-10, whereas iMos made IL-6. Finally, LPS-induced mortality of burn mice was made worse by anti-Gr-1 depletion of all PMNs and 66% of iMos from burn mice. This suggests that PMNs play a primarily anti-inflammatory role in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
Chorioamnionitis frequently precedes both genital tract and placental inflammation and is both a primary cause of maternal morbidity and a major antecedent of preterm premature rupture of the membranes (PPROM) as well as preterm delivery (PTD). In most cases of chorioamnionitis, neutrophils dominate the decidua. In a subset of these cases, a predominance of monocytes is uniquely associated with both neonatal intraventricular hemorrhage and death. The multifunctional cytokine, interleukin-6, promotes local monocyte dominance via several mechanisms. In this study, immunostaining of placental sections revealed significantly higher interleukin-6 HSCOREs in decidual cells (DCs) but not in interstitial trophoblasts, in chorioamnionitis versus gestational age-matched control placentas (P < 0.05). In confluent leukocyte-free term DCs, secreted interleukin-6 levels in incubations with estradiol-17β were increased 2500-fold by IL-1β (P < 0.05). This up-regulation was inhibited by more than 50% in parallel incubations that included medroxyprogesterone acetate (n = 12, P < 0.05). Western blotting data confirmed these enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay results; quantitative RT-PCR findings demonstrated corresponding changes in interleukin-6 mRNA levels. Specific inhibitors of signaling for both nuclear factor-κB activation and p38-mitogen-activated protein kinase, but not for protein kinase C, significantly decreased IL-1β-enhanced interleukin-6 expression levels in cultured DCs. In conclusion, in situ and in vitro results indicate that significantly enhanced interleukin-6 expression levels in DCs during chorioamnionitis could be pivotal in skewing decidual monocyte differentiation to macrophages.

Abstract
Glucocorticoids (GC) are potent drugs proven to effectively treat inflammatory diseases, although patients typically begin therapy after the onset of symptoms. Clinical studies with cytokine inhibitors prove that these mediators drive inflammatory responses in diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and Crohn's disease. Despite the clear sequence of cytokine-induced inflammation followed by effective GC treatment, most basic science investigations have examined the ability of GC to prevent an inflammatory response rather than halt its progression. The current studies used the Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) agonist palmitoyl(3)-cysteine-serine-lysine(4) (PAM) or the TLR4 agonist lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to stimulate human whole blood and determine whether postponing the addition of the GC dexamethasone (DEX) limits its ability to decrease cytokine production. Twenty-four hours after stimulation, tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), IL-6, and IL-8 levels were measured, in addition to the cytokine inhibitors IL-1 soluble receptor II (SRII), IL-1 receptor antagonist, and TNF SRII. LPS rapidly induced all of the proinflammatory mediators over 24 h while failing to induce any of the cytokine inhibitors. PAM stimulation also induced IL-1beta, IL-6, and IL-8. Concomitant addition of DEX plus LPS or PAM significantly suppressed all cytokine levels. Delaying the addition of DEX until 6 h after LPS stimulation failed to decrease TNF or IL-6. In contrast, delayed DEX addition significantly suppressed PAM-induced IL-1beta, IL-6, or IL-8 and also suppressed LPS-induced IL-1beta and IL-8. Our results show that cytokines which typically increase in concentration between 6 and 24 h after stimulation were significantly suppressed by the addition of DEX 6 h after stimulation.

Abstract
The studies reported here showed that beta-endorphin at concentrations of 10(-7)-10(-11) M increased interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) production in unfractionated leukocyte suspensions both in the presence of 0.1 microg/ml lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and in cultures not stimulated with LPS. Interleukin-8 (IL-8) production by leukocytes was inhibited by beta-endorphin at concentrations of 10(-7) and 10(-11) M in the presence of LPS. The stimulatory effect of beta-endorphin on IL-1beta production was not blocked by naloxone or naltrindole. Suppression of IL-8 production was blocked by naloxone and naltrindole. In the mononuclear cell and neutrophil fractions, beta-endorphin and the delta agonist DADLE increased IL-1beta synthesis in both the spontaneous and stimulated versions of the test, while beta-endorphin and the delta agonist DADLE inhibited IL-8 production in the mononuclear cell and neutrophil fractions only in LPS-stimulated cultures. The mu agonist DAGO had no effect on IL-1beta production by mononuclear cells or neutrophils, though it suppressed LPS-induced secretion of IL-8 by neutrophils.

Abstract
Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) are the most abundant white cell in humans and an essential component of the innate immune system. PMNs are typically the first type of leukocyte recruited to sites of infection or areas of inflammation. Ingestion of microorganisms triggers production of reactive oxygen species and fusion of cytoplasmic granules with forming phagosomes, leading to effective killing of ingested microbes. Phagocytosis of bacteria typically accelerates neutrophil apoptosis, which ultimately promotes the resolution of infection. However, some bacterial pathogens alter PMN apoptosis to survive and thereby cause disease. Herein, we review PMN apoptosis and the ability of microorganisms to alter this important process.

Abstract
The role of neutrophils in the immune response has long been regarded as mainly phagocytic, but recent publications have indicated the production of several cytokines by polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMN). The results of the individual reports, however, vary considerably. In this study, we established a cytokine profile of pure human neutrophils and demonstrated that minor contamination of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in PMN preparations can lead to false-positive results. In our hands, peripheral blood PMN fail to produce the pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-1beta, IL-6 and tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha). Instead, they secrete large amounts of the chemokine IL-8 and the anti-inflammatory IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra). Additionally, PMN preparations of a high purity show production of the chemokines macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1alpha, MIP-1beta and growth-related oncogene-alpha (GRO-alpha), as well as macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF). The neutrophil therefore represents a novelty by producing the antagonist of IL-1beta (i.e. IL-1ra) in the absence of IL-1beta itself. To support our results, we differentiated stem cells from human cord blood into PMN and monocytes, respectively. These in vitro-differentiated PMN showed the same cytokine profile as peripheral blood PMN lacking IL-1beta, while differentiated monocytes produced the expected IL-1beta in addition to IL-1ra. The clear anti-inflammatory nature of their cytokine profile enables PMN to antagonize pro-inflammatory signals in experimental conditions. It is therefore possible that PMN play a key role in immune regulation by counteracting a dysregulation of the inflammatory process. Clinical studies, in which administration of recombinant G-CSF had a favourable effect on the outcome of severe infections and even sepsis without worsening inflammation, could thus be explained by our results.

Abstract
Chorioamnionitis is associated with intense neutrophil infiltration of the decidua. We therefore determined whether chorioamnionitis enhances decidual interleukin-8 (IL-8) expression and examined cytokine-regulated decidual IL-8 expression. Decidua from chorioamnionitis-complicated pregnancies, but not term controls, displayed marked IL-8 immunohistochemical staining and a dense neutrophil infiltrate. Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction of microdissected decidual cells identified IL-8 mRNA, confirming decidual synthesis of IL-8. Confluent leukocyte-free term decidual cells were primed with 10(-8) mol/L estradiol (E2) or E2 + 10(-7) mol/L medroxyprogesterone acetate to mimic the steroidal milieu of pregnancy. Compared with cultures maintained in E2 alone, E2 + medroxyprogesterone acetate neither significantly affected IL-8 levels nor altered the response to the cytokines. The addition of 1.0 ng/ml tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) or interleukin-1 beta (IL-1beta) increased IL-8 secretion levels by 236.6 +/- 51.4- and 1062.6 +/- 254.3-fold, respectively (n = 8, mean +/- SEM, P < 0.05), as measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Concentration-response studies revealed that 0.01 ng/ml TNF-alpha and IL-1beta elevated IL-8 output by 10- and 100-fold, respectively. Western blotting confirmed these results, and quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction demonstrated parallel changes in mRNA levels. In conclusion, IL-8 is strongly expressed in term decidua during chorioamnionitis, and TNF-alpha and IL-1beta enhance IL-8 expression in term decidual cells, suggesting that these cytokines are important regulators of chorioamnionitis-related decidual neutrophil infiltration.

Abstract
The aim of our study was to determine whether high doses of intravenous methylprednisolone have significant impact on immune parameters during the multiple sclerosis (MS) exacerbations. Peripheral blood of 32 MS patients was evaluated, using two-color flow cytometry before glucocorticosteroids and after 7 days from starting therapy. Significant increase of B cells, decrease of NK cells and monocytes producing IL-8 were observed after treatment. IL-8 is one of the cytokines responsible for blood-brain-barrier disruption and migration of immune cells to the central nervous system; in this aspect, explaining glucocorticosteroid effects during MS exacerbations.
