Abstract
The coagulation system is a part of the mammalian host defense system. Pathogens and pathogen components, such as bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), induce tissue factor (TF) expression in circulating monocytes that then activates the coagulation protease cascade. Formation of a clot limits dissemination of pathogens, enhances the recruitment of immune cells, and facilitates killing of pathogens. However, excessive activation of coagulation can lead to thrombosis. Here, we review studies on the mechanism of LPS induction of TF expression in monocytes and its contribution to thrombosis and disseminated intravascular coagulation. Binding of LPS to Toll-like receptor 4 on monocytes induces a transient expression of TF that involves activation of intracellular signaling pathways and binding of various transcription factors, such as c-rel/p65 and c-Fos/c-Jun, to the TF promoter. Inhibition of TF in endotoxemia and sepsis models reduces activation of coagulation and improves survival. Studies with endotoxemic mice showed that hematopoietic cells and myeloid cells play major roles in the activation of coagulation. Monocyte TF expression is also increased after surgery. Activated monocytes release TF-positive extracellular vesicles (EVs) and levels of circulating TF-positive EVs are increased in endotoxemic mice and in patients with sepsis. More recently, it was shown that inflammasomes contribute to the induction of TF expression and activation of coagulation in endotoxemic mice. Taken together, these studies indicate that monocyte TF plays a major role in activation of coagulation. Selective inhibition of monocyte TF expression may reduce pathologic activation of coagulation in sepsis and other diseases without affecting hemostasis.

Abstract
Recent advances in immunology enabled the characterization of several signal transmitting pathways responsible for proper cytokine and chemokine signaling. Among them, Janus kinases (JAKs) are essential components of receptor activation systems. The discovery of JAK kinases enabled the synthesis of JAK kinase inhibitors (JAKi or Jakinibs), which have proven to be efficacious in the treatment of hematologic malignancies and several rheumatological disorders and continue to be investigated in many clinical indications. Blocking multiple cytokines belonging to several cytokine families with a single small molecule may, however, create a potential risk for the patients. Recently, a higher risk of thromboembolic complications, namely, deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, has been recognized as the main concern during treatment with Jakinibs. At present, it is not entirely clear whether this increased risk is related to direct cytokine blockade, the presence of concomitant diseases in treated patients or other unknown circumstances that work together to increase the risk of this side effect. In this review, we discuss data on the risk of thromboembolic side effects, with special emphasis on the mechanism that may be responsible for this increased risk. Many indirect data indicate that higher thromboembolic risk may be related to the specificity of JAK inhibitor action, such that preferentially blocking one signaling pathway upsets the balance between pro and anti-thrombotic activities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammation is a major cause of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) in dogs, but underlying mechanisms for its initiation are unknown. We hypothesized that pro-inflammatory cytokines, interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8, induce tissue factor (TF) expression on canine monocyte surfaces, which may contribute to DIC initiation. OBJECTIVES The objectives of this study were to determine if (1) IL-6 and IL-8 would induce TF activity on canine monocytes, (2) fetal bovine serum or autologous plasma was required for IL-6- or IL-8-induced TF responses in canine monocytes, and (3) these pro-inflammatory cytokines would enhance TF activity on canine monocytes in response to low concentrations of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). METHODS Canine monocytes were isolated from EDTA-anticoagulated blood as peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) by double-density gradient centrifugation and adhesion to plastic. Adherent cells were stimulated for 4 hours with recombinant canine (rc)-IL-6 or rc-IL-8 (10-5000 pg/mL) with or without 10% heat-inactivated (HI) fetal bovine serum, untreated autologous canine plasma (ACP), or HI-ACP. Lipopolysaccharide (100 ng/mL) served as a positive control. Cells were also costimulated with either cytokine (100 pg/mL) or low concentrations of LPS (0.1 and 1 ng/mL). Monocytes immunopurified from PBMC with anti-CD14 antibodies were also stimulated with both cytokines (100 and 5000 pg/mL). TF activity on cell surfaces was measured by a 2-stage amidolytic assay, based on activated factor X generation. RESULTS Neither rc-IL-6 nor rc-IL-8 consistently stimulated TF procoagulant activity in canine PBMC or purified monocytes after 4 hours. Serum, plasma, or low concentrations of LPS did not enhance the TF response to these cytokines. CONCLUSIONS IL-6 or IL-8 at evaluated concentrations may not play major roles in coagulation activation by induction of TF expression on monocytes in dogs with inflammation.

Abstract
Background We have previously demonstrated that Lactobacillus casei CRL 431 administration improved the resistance to pneumococcal infection in a mouse model. Methods This study examined the effects of the oral administration of Lactobacillus casei CRL 431 (L. casei) on the activation of coagulation and fibrinolytic systems as well as their inhibitors during a Streptococcus pneumoniae infection in mice. Results The alveolo-capillary membrane was damaged and the coagulation system was also activated by the infection. As a consequence, we could see fibrin(ogen) deposits in lung histological slices, increased levels of thrombin-antithrombin complex (TATc) in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and plasma, decrease in prothrombin activity (PT) and prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time test (APTT) values. Factor VII (FVII) and factor X (FX) were decreased in plasma, whereas fibrinogen (F) and factor VIII (FVIII) were increased. The low levels of protein C (PC) in BAL and plasma proved damage on inhibitory activity. The infected animals showed reduced fibrinolytic activity, evidenced by an increase in plasminogen activation inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) in BAL and plasma. The pathogen induced an increase of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 in BAL and serum a few hours after challenge followed by a significant decrease until the end of the assayed period. IL-4 and IL-10 in BAL and serum were also augmented, especially at the end of the experiment. The animals treated with L. casei showed an improvement of alveolo-capillary membrane, lower fibrin(ogen) deposits in lung and decrease in TATc. APTT test and PT, FVII and FX activity were normalized. L. casei group showed lower F levels than control during whole experiment. In the present study no effect of L. casei on the recovery of the inhibitory activity was detected. However, L. casei was effective in reducing PAI-1 levels in BAL and in increasing anti-inflammatory ILs concentration. Conclusion L. casei proved effective to regulate coagulation activation and fibrinolysis inhibition during infection, leading to a decrease in fibrin deposits in lung. This protective effect of L. casei would be mediated by the induction of higher levels of IL-4 and IL-10 which could regulate the anti-inflammatory, procoagulant and antifibrinolytic effects of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammatory reactions contribute to the development of arterial disease. We investigated the role of interleukin-4 (IL-4) in the development of myocardial infarction (MI) by genotyping patients with MI and control subjects for the -589C>T (rs2243250) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), which tags a functional haplotype of IL-4. METHODS AND RESULTS Study of Myocardial Infarctions Leiden (SMILE) included 560 men with a first MI and 646 control subjects. The Valencia study included 305 patients with MI at T genotype was found [odds ratio (OR) 0.84; 95% CI 0.37-1.95 for -589TT and 0.82; 95% CI 0.62-1.07 for -589CT compared with -589CC]. In patients younger than 50 years, carriership of one or two -589T alleles was associated with a reduced risk of MI (OR 0.57: 95% CI 0.34-0.95). This result was replicated in the Valencia study, where carriers of one or two -589T alleles had a reduced risk of MI (OR 0.67: 95% CI 0.47-0.95), with a strong protective effect of the -598T allele in homozygous -589T (OR 0.33: 95% CI 0.10-1.05). In the control subjects of the Valencia study, the -589T allele was associated with reduced levels of F1+2. CONCLUSION Our data indicate that the IL-4 haplotype tagged by the -589T allele reduces the risk of MI in young individuals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In vitro generation of dendritic cells (DCs) from human monocytes represents a promising tool in immunotherapy. However, it is not known whether the separation of DCs from monocytes induces tissue factor expression and therefore may trigger coagulation in patients receiving these DC preparations. The aim of this study is thus to analyze tissue factor expression on monocyte-derived DCs and to compare their ability to trigger thrombin generation to that of macrophages obtained from the same monocytes. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Human monocytes are separated by leukapheresis and washed by using counterflow centrifugation in sterile, endotoxin-free conditions. Macrophages are grown from human monocytes in the presence of GM-CSF alone and immature DCs are grown in the presence of GM-CSF plus IL-4 for 5 days with fetal calf serum (IDC-FCS). Immature DCs are also grown from human monocytes for 7 days in the presence of GM-CSF plus IL-4 with human group AB serum (IDC-HS). The addition of prostaglandin E(2) and TNFalpha in this culture medium at Day 5 leads to mature DCs (MDC-HS). Tissue factor mRNA expression is studied by RT-PCR analysis. Tissue factor antigen is measured by ELISA in cell lysates and by direct flow cytometry. The procoagulant activity of intact cells is assessed by using an amidolytic assay or a chronometric assay. RESULTS IDC-FCS express tissue factor mRNA and antigen and trigger thrombin generation. Procoagulant activity of IDC-FCS is dependent on both tissue factor expression and exposure to anionic phospholipid. Monocyte-derived macrophages cultured for 5 days with GM-CSF alone express lower levels of tissue factor mRNA, tissue factor antigen, and procoagulant activity than IDC-FCS. IDC-HS and MDC-HS also express high levels of tissue factor mRNA and antigen and support procoagulant activity. CONCLUSION Monocyte-derived DCs express a high level of functional tissue factor and support procoagulant activity. This finding should be taken into account in clinical trials.

Abstract
The potential for tissue factor (TF) to enhance inflammation by factor VIIa-dependent induction of proinflammatory changes in macrophages was explored. Purified recombinant human factor VIIa enhanced reactive oxygen species production by human monocyte-derived macrophages expressing TF in vitro. This effect was dose- and time-dependent, ligand- and receptor-specific, and independent of other coagulation proteins. This receptor/ligand binding induced phospholipase C-dependent intracellular calcium fluxes. Transfection studies using a human monocyte-derived cell line (U937) demonstrated that an intact intracytoplasmic domain of TF is required for factor VIIa-induced intracellular calcium fluxes. The capacity of TF to enhance proinflammatory functions of rabbit peritoneal-elicited macrophages (production of reactive oxygen species and expression of major histocompatibility complex class II and cell adhesion molecules) was demonstrated in vivo by treatment with an anti-TF antibody. These data demonstrate that, in addition to its role in activation of coagulation, TF can directly augment macrophage activation. These effects are initiated by binding factor VIIa and are independent of other coagulation proteins. These studies provide the first demonstration of a direct proinflammatory role for TF acting as a cell-signaling receptor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Counterflow centrifugal elutriation is the method of choice for obtaining a large quantity of highly purified monocytes. In spite of the fact that this technique has been used for many years to isolate monocytes for cellular immunotherapy, it is not known whether the process of elutriation can stimulate tissue factor (TF) expression and therefore trigger coagulation in patients receiving these cell preparations. The aim of the present study is thus to identify TF and TF pathway inhibitor (TFPI) in elutriated monocytes and to evaluate their ability to trigger thrombin generation. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Human monocytes are separated by leukapheresis and elutriation in sterile, endotoxin-free conditions. TF and TFPI mRNA is detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. TF and TFPI are measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in cell lysates. TF antigen expression on cell surface is evidenced by direct-flow cytometry. Two functional tests (a chronometric test and an amidolytic assay) assess the capacity of monocytes to trigger thrombin generation. The response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is evaluated with each technique. Monocytic cell line THP-1 is used as a positive control. RESULTS Elutriated monocytes coexpress TF mRNA and TFPI mRNA. The expression of TF mRNA is dramatically increased by LPS activation. This is correlated with a 100-fold increase in the amount of TF antigen in monocyte lysates. Flow immunocytometry confirms the expression of TF antigen on cell membrane in response to LPS stimulation, whereas TFPI mRNA is slightly increased after LPS stimulation. The amount of TFPI antigen in cell lysates is small when compared to that in plasma. Elutriated monocytes have a strong potential to trigger thrombin generation in response to LPS. CONCLUSION In spite of the coexpression of TF mRNA and TFPI mRNA, elutriated monocytes are capable of supporting prothrombinase activity. This should be taken into account in the evaluation of the safety of adoptive cellular immunotherapy.

Abstract
This study sought to investigate monocyte procoagulant activity and Mac-1 expression after successful percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). An increased leukocyte count is an important risk factor for subsequent adverse cardiac events in AMI. Cellular procoagulant responses may contribute to the risk of thrombotic events after AMI. In 20 patients with AMI serial venous blood samples were obtained before, 4, 8 hours, and daily after direct PTCA. Twenty patients with elective PTCA served as a control group. We measured leukocyte procoagulant activity with a 1-stage clotting assay, Mac-1 expression of monocytes by flow cytometry, concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin (IL)-1beta, IL-6, and IL-8 using immunoassays. Forty-eight hours after PTCA in patients with AMI, an increase in systemic IL-6 and C-reactive concentrations was found (p = 0.001, p = 0.008) associated with an increase in monocyte Mac-1 expression by 49 +/- 18% (p = 0.04) and followed by an increase in monocyte procoagulant activity by 140 +/- 63% 72 hours after PTCA (p = 0.01). None of these changes were detectable in the control group. No changes in the concentrations of the cytokines IL-1beta, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, or IL-8 were found. The present study demonstrates an increase in procoagulant activity along with an increase in Mac-1 expression on circulating monocytes after successful PTCA in AMI associated with an increase in systemic IL-6. These cellular procoagulant responses may limit the clinical benefit from timely reperfusion.

Abstract
Interleukin 4 (IL-4), IL-10 and IL-13 are all known to modulate several proinflammatory functions in human monocytes. They have also previously been shown to down-regulate lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced tissue factor (TF) expression in isolated cultured monocytes. In this study we investigated the effect of these three cytokines on the induction of monocytic TF in a whole blood environment at three levels: mRNA quantitation, surface antigen expression and procoagulant activity. We showed that IL-10 attenuated LPS-induced monocyte TF expression and activity in whole blood in a concentration-dependent manner, both when added to the blood prior to LPS and, although to a lesser extent, when added up to 1 h subsequent to LPS challenge. Maximum inhibition occurred at 5 ng/ml of IL-10 when the cytokine was added before LPS. IL-4 and IL-13, however, did not exhibit any inhibitory effect in the whole blood environment, contrary to the reported findings in cell culture experiments. Our results confirm the potential of IL-10 as an anti-inflammatory, TF-preventing drug, whereas the effects of IL-4 and IL-13 on monocytes in whole blood seem more complex, and require further investigation.

Abstract
Recent studies have investigated the use of anti-inflammatory cytokine, interleukin 10 (IL-10) to control the development of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) in sepsis by down-regulation of monocyte tissue factor (MTF) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in the initial phase of the disease. In vitro and in vivo human studies have shown that a minimal (<1 h) delay in IL-10 treatment significantly reduces the cytokines ability to inhibit LPS-induced MTF expression and the end products of coagulation. In this whole blood in vitro study we investigated the role of lymphocyte and platelet interactions with monocytes to up-regulate MTF expression in the presence of IL-10 in the initial phase of exposure to LPS. Individual blockade of monocyte B7 or platelet P-selectin significantly (35%) reduced MTF expression (P<0.05). IL-10 showed a dose-dependent inhibition of LPS (0.1 microg/ml) induced MTF expression, with 56% inhibition at 1 ng/ml, maximizing at 5 ng/ml IL-10 (75%; P<0.05). Simultaneous exposure to LPS and IL-10 (1 ng/ml) or addition of IL-10 1 h after LPS, with individual B7 and P-selectin blockade significantly enhanced the inhibition of MTF expression by IL-10 (P<0.05). We conclude that the efficacy of IL-10 to control DIC could be enhanced by a simultaneous B7 and P-selectin blockade.

Abstract
Extravascular procoagulant activity often accompanies cell-mediated immune responses and systemic administration of pharmacologic anticoagulants prevents cell-mediated delayed-type hypersensitivity reactions. These observations suggest a direct association between coagulation and cell-mediated immunity. The cytokine interleukin (IL)-4 potently suppresses cell-mediated immune responses, but its mechanism of action remains to be determined. Herein we demonstrate that the physiologic anticoagulant protein S is IL-4-inducible in primary T cells. Although protein S was known to inhibit the classic factor Va-dependent prothrombinase assembled by endothelial cells and platelets, we found that protein S also inhibits the factor Va-independent prothrombinase assembled by lymphoid cells. Thus, protein S-mediated down-regulation of lymphoid cell procoagulant activity may be one mechanism by which IL-4 antagonizes cell-mediated immunity.

Abstract
Tissue factor (TF) is a transmembrane receptor that serves as a cofactor for factor VIIa and initiates the extrinsic pathway of blood coagulation. Under normal physiological conditions, TF is expressed in extravascular and perivascular cells but not in vascular endothelial cells and monocytes. TF can be induced in these cells by inflammatory regulators and other stimulators, such as LPS, thrombin, oxidized lipoproteins, and certain growth factors. An earlier study showed that growing primary cultures of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) with endothelial cell growth supplement (ECGS) and heparin had impaired the ability of monolayers to express surface membrane TF activity after perturbation. The mechanism by which ECGS suppressed TF activity was not known. In the present study, we investigated the effect of recombinant acidic and basic fibroblast growth factors (aFGF and bFGF) on the induction of TF in a HUVEC cell line and a fibroblast cell line. Both aFGF and bFGF suppressed the phorbol myristate acetate-induced expression of TF in endothelial cells but not the serum-induced expression of TF in fibroblast cells. Diminished expression of the cell surface TF activity observed in endothelial cells grown with aFGF or bFGF was due to the accumulation of a lower number of TF mRNA transcripts. TF mRNA stability was not altered in HUVECs grown with aFGF or bFGF. Nuclear run-on experiments revealed that the transcription of TF and several other genes that play an important role in inflammation and angiogenesis was reduced in the endothelial cells that were cultured with aFGF or bFGF. The diminished expression of TF may be part of a generalized response of endothelial cells to FGF that facilitates migration of endothelial cells during angiogenesis.

Abstract
Interactions between membrane-bound molecules were previously shown to be involved in the induction of tissue factor-dependent monocyte procoagulant activity (PCA) by activated T cells. To investigate the potential role of the CD40/CD40 ligand (CD40L) pathway in this process, we first determined the effects of blocking anti-CD40 or anti-CD40L monoclonal antibodies (mAb) on the development of monocyte PCA during mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) between allogeneic peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). The strong inhibitory effect exerted by both mAb (mean percentages of inhibition: 88 and 91% for anti-CD40 and anti-CD40L mAb, respectively) indicates that CD40/CD40L interactions are required for the induction of PCA in MLR. These data led us to measure monocyte PCA after incubation of PBMC or purified monocytes with a stimulating anti-CD40 mAb (BL-C4) or with 3T6 fibroblasts transfected with the gene encoding CD40L. In both systems, we found that CD40 engagement strongly induced monocyte PCA which was related to tissue factor expression as shown by flow cytometric analysis. Finally, we observed that recombinant interleukin (IL)-10, which inhibits lipopolysaccharide-induced PCA, did not significantly influence CD40-dependent PCA. We conclude that CD40 engagement on monocytes induces tissue factor-dependent PCA through an IL-10-resistant pathway. These findings have implications for the control of coagulation events triggered by interactions between T cells and monocytes.

Abstract
We have developed a functional assay to study the inflammatory capacity of plasma collected from patients with severe gram-negative septic shock. In this assay, elutriation-purified, cryo-preserved human monocytes from one healthy donor are combined with plasma from patients with severe persistent septic shock for 5 h. Subsequently, the plasma is removed, medium added, and procoagulant activity (PCA) and secretion of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin 6 (IL-6) measured after 18-h incubation. Plasma from 10 patients (6 died) infected with Neisseria meningitidis previously shown to contain high levels of native lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (median 2,700 pg/ml), TNF-alpha, IL-6, IL-8, and complement activation products, had a low net spontaneous inflammatory capacity on the monocytes. The median levels of PCA, TNF-alpha, and IL-6 were 5, 0, and 4%, respectively, of the monocyte activities induced by normal plasma boosted with purified N. meningitidis (Nm)-LPS (2,500 pg/ml; net LPS-boosted capacity, 100%). The levels of PCA, TNF-alpha, and IL-6 obtained with plasma from shock patients were not different from those induced by plasma from 10 meningococcal patients without shock or with plasma from healthy persons. Boosting shock plasma with 2,500 pg/ml Nm-LPS had little effect on the monocyte activities since the median values of PCA, TNF-alpha, and IL-6 revealed a minimal increase from 5, 0, and 4% to 9, 2, and 6%, respectively. The shock plasmas revealed a strong LPS-inhibitory capacity that was largely absent in plasmas from 10 meningococcal patients without shock since the median levels of PCA, TNF-alpha, and IL-6 increased from 5, 0, and 0% to 135, 51, and 73%, respectively, after boosting with 2,500 pg/ml Nm-LPS. The LPS-inhibitory capacity was closely associated with the levels of IL-10. The median levels of IL-10 were 19,000 pg/ml in nine shock patients vs. 22 pg/ml in nine nonshock patients with systemic meningococcal disease. Removal of native IL-10 by immunoprecipitation restored the capacity of plasmas to induce monocyte activation either by native LPS or by boosting with Nm-LPS. IL-4 and TGF-beta were not detected in shock plasmas. In 24 patients with detectable meningococcal LPS ( > 10 pg/ml, 0.1 endotoxin units/ml), the levels of IL-10 were correlated to the levels of LPS (r = 0.79, P < 0.001). IL-10 declined from initiation of antibiotic therapy and paralleled the levels of native LPS. Decreasing levels of IL-10 in serially collected shock plasmas were directly related to increasing monocyte responsiveness after Nm-LPS boosting. These results suggest that IL-10 plays a major role in containing activation of monocytes and possibly other LPS-responsive cells during overwhelming meningococcemia.

Abstract
Cell-specific expression of tissue factor (TF) in vivo is consistent with its primary role in hemostasis. In addition, TF expression is induced in cultured cells by a variety of agents, including serum and growth factors, which define the TF gene as a "primary response" gene. In this study we examined the signaling pathways and cis-acting regulatory elements required for induction of TF gene expression in HeLa cells in response to serum and the tumor promoter, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). TF activity and mRNA were induced greater than sixfold in quiescent HeLa cells by serum and PMA. TF mRNA induction by both agonists required intracellular Ca2+ mobilization, whereas inhibition of protein kinase C abolished induction of the TF gene by PMA but had no effect on induction by serum. Functional studies demonstrated that a region of the human TF promoter between -96 and +121 bp contained regulatory elements required for serum and PMA induction. These data indicate that different signaling pathways regulate TF gene expression in response to serum and PMA, although the same cis-acting DNA elements may mediate induction.
