Abstract
In this study, we investigate the potential of peritoneal macrophages to differentiate into dendritic cell (DCs) in response to preferential uptake of oligomannose-coated liposomes (OMLs). About 30% of peritoneal cells (PECs) preferentially took up OMLs that were administered into the peritoneal cavity. The OML-ingesting cells expressed CD11b and F4/80, but lacked CD11c expression, indicating that the OML-ingesting PECs with a CD11b(high)CD11c(-) phenotype are resident peritoneal macrophages. During in vitro cultivation, CD11c(+) cells arose among the PECs with ingested OMLs. CD11c(+) cells also developed among enriched peritoneal CD11b(high)CD11(-) cells from OML-treated mice, and the resulting CD11c(+) cells expressed co-stimulatory molecules and MHC class II. In addition, OML-ingesting CD11b(high)CD11c(+) cells were found in spleen after the enriched peritoneal macrophages with ingested OMLs were transplanted in the peritoneal cavity of mice. These results show that a fraction of peritoneal macrophages can differentiate into mature DCs following uptake of OMLs.

Abstract
C2D macrophage cells protect immunocompromised mice from experimentally induced pneumonias after intraperitoneal (i.p.) adoptive transfer. These macrophage cells are immature and display minimal activity in vitro. Therefore, we wanted to understand how adoptive transfer affected these cells. We believe that the in vivo environment affects the phenotypic and functional characteristics of macrophages that help maintain the physiological integrity of the host. To test this hypothesis, we characterized the trafficking patterns and cellular changes of the established macrophage C2D cell line after adoptive transfer. We examined phenotypic changes of the C2D macrophage cells in vivo with and without stimulation with gamma interferon (IFN-gamma). After in vivo i.p. adoptive transfer, C2D macrophage cells trafficked to the lungs, spleen, lymph nodes, and bone marrow of recipient mice. The cells were detected for as long as 2 months, and the cells expressed increased levels of CD11b, c-fms, and F4/80 on their surface, becoming more differentiated macrophages compared to cells maintained in vitro. Upon in vivo stimulation with IFN-gamma, c-fms levels decreased while Gr-1 levels increased compared to in vivo, unstimulated, phosphate-buffered saline-injected controls. These responses were independent of the genetic backgrounds of the recipient mice. These data support the hypothesis and indicate that C2D macrophage cells respond to in vivo signals that are absent during in vitro culture.

Abstract
Cathorops spixii is one of the most abundant venomous fish of the southeastern coast of the State of São Paulo, and consequently causes a great part of the accidents seen there. The accidents affect mainly fishermen, swimmers and tourists and are characterized by punctiform or wide wounds, erythema, edema, pain, sudoresis, indisposition, fever, nausea, vomiting and secondary infection. The objective of this work was to characterize the inflammatory response induced in mice by both venoms (mucus and sting) of the catfish C. spixii. Our results demonstrated that both venoms induced a great number of rolling and adherent leukocytes in the post-capillary venules of cremaster muscle of mice, and an increase in the vascular permeability in peritoneal cavity. Mucus induced the recruitment of neutrophils immediately after injection followed later by macrophage infiltration. In contrast, the cellular infiltration elicited by sting venom was rapidly resolved. The peritonitis reaction provoked by venoms was characterized by cytokine (IL-6), chemokines (MCP-1 and KC) or lipid mediator (LTB4) production in the peritoneal cavity. The macrophages from 7-day mucus venom-induced exudates upon in vitro mucus venom stimulation, expressed CD11c x MHC class II and release bioactive IL-12p70. On the other hand, sting venom-elicited peritoneal macrophages lost the ability to differentiate into dendritic cells, following re-stimulation in vitro with sting venom, they do not express CD11c, nor do they exhibit sufficient levels of MHC class II. In conclusion, both types of venoms (mucus or sting) promote inflammatory reaction with different profiles, and the inflammatory reaction induced by the first was characterized by antigen persistence in peritoneal cavity that allowed the activation of phagocytic cells with capacity of antigenic presentation.

Abstract
The present study demonstrates that the intraperitoneal administration of soluble leishmanial antigen (SLA) entrapped in liposomes coated with neoglycolipids containing oligomannose residues (mannopentaose or mannotriose) strongly induces an antigen-specific T-helper type 1 (Th1) immune response in BALB/c mice. In response to in vitro stimulation with SLA, spleen cells from mice that had received oligomannose-coated liposomes encasing SLA (SLA-OML) displayed greater interferon (IFN)-gamma and interleukin (IL)-2 production and lower IL-4 and IL-5 production than spleen cells from mice that had received SLA alone, indicating that the SLA-specific Th1 immune response had predominantly been induced in the mice that had received SLA-OML. After subsequent infection with Leishmania major, mice that had received SLA-OML were effectively protected against the disease, with a predominant production of IFN-gamma. OML were preferentially and rapidly incorporated into peritoneal macrophages, and the transplantation of macrophages containing SLA-OML into the peritoneal cavity also induced protection against L. major infection. Thus, SLA-OML were shown to successfully induce a specific Th1 immune response capable of controlling L. major infection in BALB/c mice through the effective uptake of OML by peritoneal macrophages.

Abstract
Allergic asthma is one of the most common chronic diseases in western society, characterized by variable airway obstruction, mucus hypersecretion and infiltration of the airway wall with T-helper type 2 (Th2) cells, eosinophils and mast cells. If we are to devise new causal therapies for this disease, it is important to elucidate how Th2 cells are activated and respond to intrinsically harmless allergens. Dendritic cells (DCs) are the most important antigen-presenting cells in the lung and are mainly recognized for their exceptional potential to generate a primary immune response and sensitization to aeroallergens. Much less attention has been paid to the role of DCs in established inflammation. Based on functional studies in a murine model for asthma, in this review article, we propose that DCs are essential for generating allergen-specific effector Th2 responses in ongoing inflammation in sensitized mice. A better understanding of the role of DCs in the maintenance of the inflammatory response to allergens in asthma should lead to new therapeutic approaches intervening at the top of the inflammatory cascade.

Abstract
Epithelioid cells (ECs) found in granulomas are thought to derive from mononuclear phagocytes. Although GM-CSF and/or IL-4 are known to promote cell differentiation their role in the development of ECs has never been demonstrated. Here we showed that mouse macrophages treated exclusively with recombinant IL-4 (rIL-4) differentiate into epithelioid-like cells. Macrophages cultivated with rIL-4 presented a fried-egg shape, and ultrastructural studies revealed membrane interdigitations, cytoplasmic vesicles, prominent Golgi complex, and rough endoplasmic reticulum. Compared with controls, rIL-4 treated cells displayed increased expression of MHC class II molecules and of Migration Inhibitory Factor-Related Protein-14. Whereas mannose receptor-mediated phagocytosis was increased, Fcgamma-receptor mediated phagocytosis and the production of nitric oxide were decreased in treated cultures. All these features overlap those reported for ECs from granulomatous lesions. In conclusion, treatment of mouse peritoneal macrophages with rIL-4 drives their in vitro differentiation to an epithelioid phenotype and provides a tool to investigate the biology of ECs.

Abstract
Many diseases are characterized by inflammatory reactions involving both the innate and adaptive arms of the immune system. Thioglycolate medium (TM) injection into the peritoneal cavity has long been used as a stimulus for eliciting inflammatory macrophages for study and for determining the importance of a particular mediator in inflammation. However, the response to this irritant may not be relevant to many inflammatory diseases. Therefore, we have developed an Ag-specific peritonitis model using methylated BSA (mBSA) as the stimulus. Priming mice intradermally with mBSA in adjuvant and boosting 14 days later, followed by an i.p. challenge with mBSA after an additional 7 days, led to an inflammatory reaction equivalent in magnitude to that induced with TM as judged by the number of exudate cells. The inflammatory macrophages elicited by the mBSA protocol differed, being smaller and less vacuolated than TM-elicited macrophages. Also, macrophages from 4-day mBSA-induced exudates expressed more MHC class II than TM-induced exudates, were able to stimulate allogeneic T lymphocytes, and upon in vitro stimulation with LPS secreted greater levels of IL-6 and IL-1beta. Macrophages from 4-day TM-induced exudates, on the other hand, expressed Ly6C and ER-MP58, immature myeloid markers. The inflammatory response elicited using the Ag mBSA may be more relevant for studying the inflammatory responses in many diseases, such as those of autoimmune origin and those involving an acquired immune response.

Abstract
A comparison of the expression of surface membrane antigens between dendritic cells (DC) derived from Peyer's patch macrophages (DPP-DC) of non-infected and Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) infected mice was performed. C57BL/6J mice aged 6-8 weeks of both sexes were infected orally with a 0.5 ml suspension containing 2 x 10(4) bradyzoites of the Beverley strain of T. gondii, sacrificed on day 8 and DC generated using discrete Peyer's patch macrophages (DPP-Mø) as progenitor cells. When a comparison of the expression of surface membrane antigens between the antigen presenting cells (APC) obtained from discrete Peyer's patches of non-infected and T. gondii infected mice was carried out, no significant differences were observed in the macrophage progenitor and DC populations expression of F4/80, DEC-205, CD11c, CD80 (B7-1) and CD34. However, a significant decrease in MHC class II antigen levels and a down regulation of the co-stimulatory molecule CD86 (B7-2) were noted. B7-1 appeared to be the dominant co-stimulatory ligand, whereas B7-2, which was down regulated during T. gondii infection, had a weak expression. Taken together, these results may help clarify the role of DC in the complex network regulating surface membrane antigens, as well as, their capacity for antigen uptake, processing and presentation during toxoplasmosis.

Abstract
The phenotype and function of peritoneal cavity macrophage-derived dendritic cells (PEC-DC) was previously reported. In this study we have gone further in using our established culture system to generated discrete Peyer's patch dendritic cells (DPP-DC) from murine discrete Peyer's patch macrophages (DPP-Mø), following stimulation with granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) plus interleukin 4 (IL-4) for 7 days. DPP-Mø from murine small intestines were obtained by mechanical disruption of discrete Peyer's patches (DPP), followed by metrizamide density gradient centrifugation to remove Peyer's patch resident DC and debri, after which an overnight adherent step in tissue culture medium was carried out for macrophage enrichment. Characterization of the generated DPP-DC was carried out using well-established criteria of morphology, expression of membrane antigens and capacity for antigen presentation. Dendritic cells expressed DEC-205, F4/80 and CD34 at high levels, but exhibited very low CD11c levels. They were shown to present soluble protein antigen to CD3(+) spleen T cells. A comparison of the surface antigen expression in the progenitor DPP-Mø population and the generated DPP-DC showed a significant decrease in MHC class II levels and a marked down regulation of the co-stimulatory molecule CD86 (B7-2). High expression of the haemopoietic progenitor marker CD34 indicates that the generated DC, possess a haemopoietic rather than myeloid origin. Taken together, these results may provide a better understanding of the complex network regulating mucosal immune responses.
