Abstract
Polyphenols from red fruits and bee-derived propolis (PR) are bioactive natural products in various in vitro and in vivo models. The present study shows that hematotoxicity-free doses of grape polyphenols (GPE) and PR differentially decreased the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines from activated human peripheral blood leucocytes. While GPE inhibited the monocytes/macrophage response, propolis decreased both monokines and interferon γ (IFNγ) production. When used together, their distinct effects lead to the attenuation of all inflammatory mediators, as supported by a significant modulation of the transcriptomic profile of pro-inflammatory genes in human leukocytes. To enforce in vitro data, GPE+PR were tested for their ability to improve clinical scores and cachexia in chronic rat adjuvant-induced arthritis (AA). Extracts significantly reduced arthritis scores and cachexia, and this effect was more significant in animals receiving continuous low doses compared to those receiving five different high doses. Animals treated daily had significantly better clinical scores than corticoid-treated rats. Together, these findings indicate that the GPE+PR combination induces potent anti-inflammatory activity due to their complementary immune cell modulation.

Abstract
Polyphenolic anthocyanins are major colorful compounds in red fruits, known to prevent cardiovascular and other diseases. Grape polyphenols are a mixture of various molecules and their exact contribution to above bioactivities remains to be clarified. In the present study, we first analyzed the effect of purified grape-derived compounds on human peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) survival, proliferation, as well as for their ability to inhibit the activation of human normal macrophages. Data indicated that malvidin-3-O-β glucoside (Malβg), the major grape anthocyanin, is bioactive with no toxicity on human PBMC. Malβg decreased the transcription of genes encoding inflammatory mediators, confirmed by the inhibition of TNFα, IL1, IL-6 and iNOS-derived nitric oxide (NO) secretion from activated macrophages. As Malβg also inhibited inflammatory response of rat macrophages, we investigated the anti-inflammatory potential of Malβg in chronic rat adjuvant-induced arthritis (AIA). Malβg significantly diminished inflammatory cachexia and arthritic paw scores in AIA rats at both therapeutic and preventive levels. In vivo effects of Malβg correlated with down-regulation of NO generation from AIA rats' peritoneal macrophages ex vivo. These data indicate that Malβg, major grape anthocyanin, is a potent anti-inflammatory agent in vitro and in vivo, without detectable toxic effect.

Abstract
Anti-leukemia activity of human macrophages involves the generation of nitric oxide (NO) derivatives. However, leukemic transformation may involve mechanisms that rescue cells from NO-mediated apoptosis. In the present work, we analyzed the effects of exogenous NO on the proliferation of BCR-ABL(+) chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) cells. As normal leukocytes, the proliferation of leukemia cells was inhibited by SNAP (S-nitroso-N-acetyl-penicillamine), GEA (Oxatriazolium amino-chloride), and SIN-1 (Morpholino-sydnonimine), whereas SNP (sodium nitroprusside) had no effect on leukemia cell growth. SIN-1 induced higher anti-proliferation activity in BCR-ABL(+) cells, compared to normal hemopoietic cells. Inhibition of leukemia cell proliferation correlated with increased apoptosis and DEVDase activity. The simultaneous addition of exogenous iron reversed NO-mediated inhibition of cell growth, caspase activation and apoptosis in all BCR-ABL(+) cells tested. The quantification of intracellular iron levels in leukemia cells indicated that NO induced an early, dose-dependent decrease in ferric iron levels. Accordingly, elevation of intracellular iron protected leukemia cells from NO-mediated apoptosis. Together, the present work reveals the presence of an iron-dependant mechanism for leukemia cell rescue from NO-induced growth inhibition and apoptosis.

Abstract
F2The host defense against tumor cells is in part based upon the production of nitric oxide (NO) by activated macrophages. However, carcinogenesis may involve mechanisms that protect tumor cells from NO-mediated apoptosis. In the present study, we have assessed the effects of exogenous NO on the proliferation and survival of human liver (AKN-1), lung (A549), skin (HaCat), and pancreatic (Capan-2) tumor cell lines, compared with normal skin-derived epithelial cell cultures. Except to the HaCat cell line, all of the other human epithelioid cells were sensitive to the antiproliferation effect of S-nitroso-N-acetyl-penicillamine or Deta NONOate, whereas tumor cells had low if any response to sodium nitroprusside. Growth inhibition with exogenous NO correlated with increased apoptosis, but was not mediated by cyclic GMP, peroxynitrite generation, or poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase modulation, all of which involved in NO-mediated growth inhibition of normal skin-derived epithelial cell cultures. The simultaneous addition of iron-containing compounds protected tumor cells from NO-mediated growth inhibition and apoptosis. Intracellular iron quantification indicated that, as deferoxamine, exogenous NO significantly decreased intracellular ferric iron levels in tumor cells. Together, the current study reveals that intracellular iron elevation rescues tumor cells from NO-mediated iron depletion and subsequent growth inhibition and apoptosis.

Abstract
Interferon alpha (IFN-alpha) is used to treat chronic myelogenous leukaemia (CML) patients. However, its target(s) remain(s) unknown. One possibility is that there is a differing sensitivity of the leukaemic from the normal colony-forming cell (CFC) compartments to IFN-alpha. Co-cultures of progenitors with stromal cells provide a valuable tool to dissect direct and indirect activities of IFN-alpha. In this study, we have used endothelial cells (EC) as a source of stromal cells. In co-cultures of normal progenitors with EC, IFN-alpha increased the generation of clonogenic cells, mainly via an increased production of flt3 ligand (FL) by EC. In contrast, in co-cultures of CML progenitors with EC, IFN-alpha inhibited the generation of clonogenic cells, mainly by direct inhibition on the progenitors, the up-regulation of FL production by stromal cells being unable to compensate for the direct inhibitory effects of IFN-alpha. These data provide evidence for a differential effect of IFN-alpha on the growth of CML and normal CFC cells in a stromal context and suggest that an alteration in the response of CML progenitor cells to FL is important in the explanation of this differential effect.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Highly active antiretroviral therapies (HAART) increase the CD4(+) cell count, but complete normalization of this parameter has not been obtained in some patients. As oxidative stress plays an important role during human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)-associated dementia and lymphocyte apoptosis, we asked whether the nitric oxide (NO) pathway plays a role in the in vitro survival of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from HIV-1(+) patients and how it correlates with peripheral CD4(+) cell levels. MATERIALS AND METHODS PBMC were isolated from patients with AIDS and assayed for apoptosis and proliferation in the presence of various chemicals, including agonists or antagonists of the NO pathway. Data were then compared with several in vivo parameters from the same patients. RESULTS Apoptosis of PBMC in the presence of exogenous NO is significantly higher in patients with low peripheral CD4(+) cell levels than in patients with high CD4(+) cell numbers or seronegative individuals. In addition, endogenous NO inhibition rescues cells from apoptosis in AIDS patients with low circulating CD4(+) cell numbers and helps recovery of the T cell proliferative response. NO-mediated apoptosis does not require cGMP but involves peroxynitrite generation, PARP activation, and NAD(+) depletion. CONCLUSIONS Taken together, the data suggest the involvement of NO during the apoptosis and functional impairment of lymphocytes in patients with AIDS.

Abstract
During some helminth infections, increased expression of the low-affinity receptor for IgE (CD23/FcepsilonRII) by macrophages and/or increased levels of plasma IgE have been seen, but their role in host protection or disease progression remains unclear. Recently, crosslinking of CD23 was shown to promote intracellular killing of Leishmania parasites in human macrophages, a phenomenon involving the production of tumor necrosis factor alpha and nitric oxide (NO). Based upon various in vitro and in vivo studies of human cutaneous leishmaniasis, Djavad Mossalayi, Michel Arock, Dominique Mazier, Philipe Vincendeau and Ioannis Vouldoukis here propose a model for an immune response that involves CD23-IgE-mediated NO release during protection, as well as during active cutaneous leishmaniasis.

Abstract
CD23 is an activation antigen expressed by various human hematopoietic cells, tissular epithelial cells and represents the major low affinity receptor for IgE (Fc epsilon RII). In its membrane and soluble forms, CD23 has multiple ligands that enable this molecule to trigger various functions in human and murine cells. In this issue, we discussed the intracellular signaling events induced by soluble CD23 and the ligand involved in each target cell. Signal transduction through surface CD23 ligation is linked to cyclic nucleotides and nitric oxide (NO) pathways in various human cells and in rat macrophages. Recent in vivo data suggest a regulatory role for these signals during various human physiopathological situations such as hemopoiesis, anti-tumoral defense, inflammation, allergy, microbicidal activity of macrophages and eosinophils, skin disease, and HIV infection.

Abstract
Ligation of the low affinity receptor for IgE, CD23/Fc epsilonRII, in human keratinocytes (HK) and monocytes induces the synthesis of proinflammatory cytokines (IL-6 and TNF-alpha), partly under the dependence of cAMP and nitric oxide pathways. Moreover, CD23 ligation induces IL-10 production in human monocytes. Since synthesis of IL-10 by HK is still a matter of debate, we investigate whether keratinocytes could produce IL-10 upon CD23 stimulation. Here, our data show that CD23 ligation induces significant IL-10 synthesis in HK, a phenomenon inhibited by cAMP antagonists, but not by inhibitors of the nitric oxide pathway. Accordingly, cAMP agonist induced significant IL-10 synthesis by HK, while nitric oxide-releasing chemical did not. Treatment of HK with anti-IL-10 mAb potentiated their CD23-mediated TNF-alpha synthesis. These data indicate that engagement of surface CD23 on human keratinocytes induces the synthesis of IL-10, which, in turn, down-regulates their proinflammatory response.

Abstract
When stimulated through IgE-(or IgG-) immune complexes with parasite antigens, mast cells can release several cytokines, including IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, Interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) that may influence the host response to Leishmania major in modulating lesion size and persistence during experimental infection in the mouse. Moreover, recent data demonstrated that mast cells are able to be antibody-independently activated by direct contact with bacteria, making them important elements in innate immunity. Given these data, we asked whether cell-parasite contact could directly induce mast cell mediator release and whether mast cells could be infected by L. major or L. infantum parasites. In this study, we showed that a pure homogeneous population of mouse bone marrow derived mast cells (BMMC) in contact with living L. major or L. infantum promastigotes, but not with attenuated parasites or soluble parasite antigens, released preformed mediators such as beta-hexosaminidase and the preformed pool of TNF-alpha within minutes. Furthermore, direct cell-parasite contact induced TNF-alpha synthesis by mast cells within hours. Moreover, we demonstrated by in vitro co-culture experiments that metacyclic L. major or L. infantum promastigotes are directly infective for a significant proportion of BMMC and are transformed into intracellular amastigotes. Taken together, these data suggest that mast cell can participate in the first line of defence, i.e. innate immunity, during local cutaneous infection with Leishmania parasites.

Abstract
BACKGROUND IgE/allergen-dependent activation of skin mast cells is involved in acute urticaria and leads to their IL-4 release. Previously we have demonstrated in vitro the induction of the low-affinity receptor for IgE (CD23/Fc epsilon RII) in human keratinocytes (HK) upon stimulation with IL-4. In addition, we have observed that ligation of CD23 on keratinocytes induced type II nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), leading to the release of nitric oxide (NO) and proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-alpha, IL-6). According to these in vitro data, we explored whether keratinocytes could also express iNOS, TNF-alpha, IL-6, and CD23 in acute urticaria, an in vivo model in which activation of mast cells by IgE/allergen immune complexes is involved. MATERIALS AND METHODS INOS, TNF-alpha, IL-6, and CD23 expression by keratinocytes was studied in acute urticaria (n = 11) in biopsies from lesional and autologous normal skin by immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization, or RT-PCR. Nitrites and TNF-alpha synthesis were assayed in supernatants of cultured lesional keratinocytes. RESULTS INOS mRNA expression was demonstrated with RT-PCR in 10 biopsies out of 11 sections of acute urticaria lesional skin. Immunohistochemistry showed that this iNOS positivity originated from keratinocytes located close to the dermoepidermal junction; TNF-alpha and IL-6 mRNA transcription was observed in all but one iNOS+ biopsy. Immunostaining and in situ hybridization with CD23-specific probes were strong in all but one iNOS+ skin biopsy. Noninflamed autologous skin was negative for iNOS (except for a weak positivity in one case), cytokines, and CD23. CONCLUSION The colocalization of iNOS, proinflammatory cytokines, and CD23 within keratinocytes in acute urticaria demonstrates that these cells play an important role in the initiation and maintenance of the inflammatory reaction during this disease in humans through activation of the iNOS pathway by CD23 ligation with IgE/allergen immune complexes.

Abstract
The host response to Leishmania infection is regulated by a specific pattern of local cytokine production. We investigated the effect of interleukin (IL)-10 and IL-4 on the leishmanicidal activity of human macrophages (M phi). As with L. major, intracellular killing of L. infantum by human M phi was obtained following ligation of surface CD23 or cell treatment with interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). This leishmanicidal activity required nitric oxide (NO) generation by activated M phi, and it was partially mimicked by cell treatment with chemical NO donors. Addition of recombinant human IL-10 or IL-4 to CD23 mAb or IFN-gamma decreased L. infantum and L. major killing by infected M phi. IL-10 was more potent than IL-4 in inhibiting the leishmanicidal activity of human M phi. Inhibition of Leishmania killing by IL-4 and IL-10 correlated with decreased NO generation from M phi, and was reversed when exogenous NO was added to cell cultures. Therefore, IL-10 and IL-4 down-regulate leishmanicidal activity of human M phi, in part by inhibiting NO generation by these cells.

Abstract
All trans retinoic acid and vitamin D3 derivatives are well known for their antileukemic activity, while the precise mechanism of this effect remains to be clarified. Using human leukemic U937 and THP-1 promonocytic cell lines, we analyzed the effect of all-trans retinoic acid (RA) and/or 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (VD) on the generation of nitric oxide (NO), a potent antitumoral mediator. U937 cell differentiation with VD or with both RA and VD (RA/VD) correlated with gene transcription and functional expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). Nitrites and L-citrulline were also detected in U937 cell supernatants as soon as 24 hours following cell incubation with VD or RA/VD, but not in cells treated with RA alone. Inhibition of iNOS activity by NG-monomethyl-L-arginine (LNMMA) significantly decreased in vitro U937 cell differentiation with VD and RA/VD as shown by the expression of cell differentiation markers (CD14 and CD68) and by the capacity of these cells to undergo a luminol-dependent chemiluminescence in response to opsonized zymosan. Similar results were obtained using the THP-1 cell line strengthening the role of NO in the VD- and RA/VD-induced growth arrest and terminal differentiation of promonocytic leukemia cells.

Abstract
We tested the effects of theophylline, a phosphodiesterase inhibitor inducing intracellular accumulation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), on malignant B cells from 15 patients with B-chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL). We observed a large increase in apoptotic cell numbers (mean, 90% v 20% in medium alone) in the presence of theophylline (100 micrograms/mL) or chlorambucil (10 mumol/L) after 72 hours of incubation. Maximal apoptosis (90%) was reached after 36 hours when the two drugs were used together at fourfold lower concentrations, indicating a synergistic effect; no effect was observed with normal B cells, suggesting that the combination might have therapeutic interest. Chlorambucil induced intracellular Ca+2 influx, pointing to the involvement of two signaling pathways that might explain its synergy with theophylline through their effects on oncogenes. The expression of bcl-2 protein, a proto-oncogene inhibiting apoptosis, decreased after incubation with the drugs, while c-myc, recently described as having a potent role in apoptosis, was overexpressed. For p53 we observed an overexpression in the presence of chlorambucil or both theophylline-chlorambucil and a decrease after theophylline incubation. Chlorambucil- and theophylline-induced apoptosis was partially inhibited by interleukin-4 (IL-4), which also abrogated the effects on oncogene expression. These results provide insight into the mechanisms underlying B-CLL apoptosis and suggest that the theophylline-chlorambucil combination may be of therapeutic value in this setting.

Abstract
Retinoids exert various functions including anti-proliferative and anti-inflammatory effects on many cell types including keratinocytes and are widely used in skin diseases, such as psoriasis and acne. We have previously shown that human keratinocytes express low affinity immunoglobulin E receptor (FcepsilonRII/CD23) when stimulated with interleukin-4. Immunoglobulin E ligates CD23 and induces the production of nitrites (reflecting the mobilization of the nitric oxide [NO]-pathway) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha by human keratinocytes. Here, 13-cis and all-trans retinoic acid (RA) were shown to reduce the production of nitrites by immunoglobulin E-activated keratinocytes by 80% in a time- and concentration-dependent fashion. As a consequence, RA derivatives also reduced the production of tumor necrosis factor alpha by these cells by 70%. The level of inducible NO synthase activity in activated human keratinocytes was significantly decreased upon treatment of the cells with RA derivatives (inhibition by 60% of the mean inducible NO synthase activity with 13-cis RA, 2 microM). Treatment for 24 h with RA derivatives almost completely abolished transcription of inducible NO synthase-specific mRNA in activated keratinocytes. Therefore, RA derivatives downregulate tumor necrosis factor-alpha release and the NO-transduction pathway through the inhibition of inducible NO synthase transcription. Together, our data provide evidence for inhibition of the NO-pathway by 13-cis and all-trans retinoic acid on CD23-activated human keratinocytes. These data may clarify the mechanism of the anti-inflammatory activity of RA derivatives in skin diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND IgE/anti-IgE immune complexes (IgE-IC) induce the release of multiple mediators from monocytes/macrophages and the monocytic cell line U937 following the ligation of the low-affinity Fc epsilon receptors (Fc epsilon RII/CD23). These effects are mediated through an accumulation of cAMP and the generation of L-arginine-dependent nitric oxide (NO). Since high IgE levels predict more rapid progression to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, we attempted to define the effects of IgE-IC on human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) production in monocytes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Two variants of HIV-1 chronically infected monocytic U1 cells were stimulated with IgE-IC and virus replication was quantified. NO and cAMP involvement was tested through the use of agonistic and antagonistic chemicals of these two pathways. RESULTS IgE-IC induced p24 production by U1 cells with low-level constitutive expression of HIV-1 mRNAs and extracellular HIV capsid protein p24 levels (U1low), upon their pretreatment with interleukin 4 (IL-4) or IL-13. This effect was due to the crosslinking of CD23, as it was reversed by blocking the IgE binding site on CD23. The IgE-IC effect could also be mimicked by crosslinking of CD23 by a specific monoclonal antibody. p24 induction by IgE-IC was then shown to be due to CD23-mediated stimulation of cAMP, NO, and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) generation. In another variant of U1 cells with > 1 log higher constitutive production of p24 levels (U1high), IgE-IC addition dramatically decreased all cell functions tested and accelerated cell death. This phenomenon was reversed by blocking the nitric oxide generation. CONCLUSIONS These data point out a regulatory role of IgE-IC on HIV-1 production in monocytic cells, through CD23-mediated stimulation of cAMP and NO pathways. IgE-IC can also stimulate increased cell death in high HIV producing cells through the NO pathway.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) appears to be an important and pleiotropic bioregulator of immune responses. The existence of the NO synthase (NOS) pathway in human monocytes/macrophages remains a subject of controversy, despite an increasing number of reports suggesting that human monocytes produce NO in vitro in response to various stimuli. Here, Bernard Dugas and colleagues consider the arguments supporting these conclusions, with particular emphasis on the results obtained by ligation of the low-affinity IgE receptor (Fcepsilon RIIb/CD23b).

Abstract
Human keratinocytes (HK) generate nitric oxide (NO) and proinflammatory mediators following activation with either IgE/anti-IgE immune complexes or a combination of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). Recently, interleukin-10 (IL-10) has been shown to down-regulate various inflammatory responses and to be secreted by lymphocytes and dendritic cells during skin inflammatory reactions. We show here that IL-10 down-regulates the production of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and IL-6 by activated HK. Also, induction of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression in HK by IgE/anti-IgE or LPS/IFN-gamma is significantly reduced by the addition of IL-10. This effect is dose dependent and correlates with reduction of iNOS mRNA production and enzyme level. Therefore, IL-10 down-regulates NO-mediated HK inflammatory responses and may thus participate in the regulation of the skin immune network.

Abstract
Serum IgE concentrations and the expression of the low-affinity receptor for IgE (Fc epsilon RII/CD23) are increased in cutaneous leishmaniasis or after immune challenge with Leishmania antigens. In vitro, the ligation of CD23 by IgE-anti-IgE immune complexes (IgE-IC) or by anti-CD23 monoclonal antibody (mAb) induces nitric oxide (NO) synthase and the generation of various cytokines by human monocytes/macrophages. The present study shows that IgE-IC, via CD23 binding, induce intracellular killing of Leishmania major in human monocyte-derived macrophages through the induction of the L-arginine:NO pathway. This was demonstrated by increased generation of nitrite (NO2-), the stable oxidation product of NO, and by the ability of NG-monomethyl-L-arginine to block both NO generation and parasite killing. A similar NO-dependent effect was observed with interferon gamma-treated cells. Tumor necrosis factor alpha is involved in this process, since both the induction of NO synthase and the killing of parasites caused by anti-CD23 mAb were inhibited by an anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha mAb. Treatment of noninfected CD23+ macrophages with IgE-IC provided protection against subsequent in vitro infection of these cells by Leishmania major promastigotes. Thus, IgE-IC promote killing of L. major by inducing NO synthase in human macrophages.

Abstract
Early thymocytes undergo extensive proliferation after their entry into the thymus, but cellular interactions and cytokines regulating this intrathymic step remain to be determined. We analyzed the effects of various T-cell growth factors and cellular interactions on in vitro proliferation of early CD2+CD3/TCR-CD4-CD8- (triple negative [TN]) human thymocytes. Freshly isolated TN cells were then assayed for their growth capacity after incubation with CD2I+III-monoclonal antibody (MoAb), recombinant human interleukin-2 (IL-2), IL-7, and/or IL-4. These cells displayed significant proliferative responses with IL-4, IL-7, or CD2-MoAb+IL-2. The addition of recombinant transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta) or autologous irradiated CD3+CD8+CD4- cells to TN cell cultures dramatically decreased their growth responses to IL-2 and IL-7, whereas IL-4-induced proliferation was less sensitive to growth inhibition. We thus asked whether the CD8+ cell-derived inhibitory effect was due to TGF beta. The addition of neutralizing anti-TGF beta MoAb completely abolished CD8+ cell-derived inhibition of TN cell growth. Analysis of CD8+ cell-derived supernatants indicated that these cells had low TGF beta 1 production capacity, whereas TN cells secrete significantly high levels of TGF beta 1. Cell fixation studies showed that TN cells were the source of the TGF beta. TGF beta 1 released from TN cells was in the latent form that became the active inhibitory form through interaction of TN cells with CD8+ cells. Together, these data suggest a role for TGF beta 1 as an externally controlled, autocrine inhibitory factor for human early thymocytes, with a regulatory role in thymic T-cell output.

Abstract
During intrathymic T cell development, elimination of autoreactive T cell clones by programmed cell death (PCD or apoptosis) is an essential mechanism for self tolerance. The precise intracellular second messengers that lead to this process remain to be determined. In the present work, we show that treatment of freshly isolated thymocytes with an antagonist of the cAMP pathway, the Rp-cAMP, significantly decreases spontaneous death by apoptosis of human thymocytes in vitro. Addition of Rp-cAMP also rescues thymocytes from activation-induced apoptosis following the ligation of surface CD3/T cell receptor complex or CD2 antigens. A cAMP analog, the dibutyryl(Dibut)-cAMP increases PCD of human thymocytes in a dose-dependent manner. Growth and rescue from PCD of thymocytes in the presence of interleukin (IL)-2 or IL-4 are also enhanced by Rp-cAMP and inhibited by Dibut-cAMP. Finally, we detect substantial levels of intracellular cAMP in freshly isolated thymocytes. This study reveals the involvement of cAMP as a second messenger during the apoptosis of normal human thymocytes.

Abstract
Eosinophils display various receptors for immunoglobulin E (IgE) including the high affinity receptor for IgE (Fc epsilon RI), CD23 (Fc epsilon RII), and Mac-2/epsilon BP. We attempted here to clarify the role of these receptors in IgE-mediated activation of eosinophils from normal human bone marrow cultures. Pretreatment of eosinophils with IL-4 is required for IgE/anti-IgE-mediated stimulation of TNF-alpha and peroxydes production. TNF-alpha release from eosinophils was also induced following ligation of CD23 and to a lesser extent with anti-Mac-2, while Fc epsilon RI-ligation had no effect. IgE/anti-IgE effect dramatically decreased when eosinophils were pretreated with Fab fragments of CD23-mAb. In addition, this effect could also be reversed by inhibiting CD23-dependent nitric oxide pathway by NG-monomethyl-L-arginine. Nitric oxide chemical donor, SIN-1, induced TNF-alpha release from eosinophils. CD23 and nitric oxide pathway are thus involved in IgE-mediated stimulation of normodense human eosinophils.

Abstract
In this study, we have investigated the ability of various cytokines to induce the maturation of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) cells with early T-cell phenotype. Leukemic blasts from 17 untreated T-ALL patients were assayed for their ability to acquire mature T-cell markers, CD3/T-cell receptor (TCR) in particular, after incubation with one or a combination of recombinant human interleukin-1 (IL-1), IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, and CD2-specific monoclonal antibody (MoAb). IL-7 or IL-2 induced the proliferation of some leukemic cells, whereas sequential cell treatment with CD2-MoAb and then IL-2 promoted CD3/TCR expression on nearly all CD2+ cells (15 of 16), except for 1 T-ALL that developed into CD3-CD16+CD56+ cells. Differentiation of T-ALL cells was also evidenced through the downregulation of CD34 precursor cell antigen, the generation of CD4+ and CD8+ cells from CD4+ CD8+ precursors, and the acquisition of mature T-cell functions. CD2 ligation induced a progressive increase of surface expression of IL-2 receptor alpha (IL-2R alpha) and IL-2R beta and an accelerated in vitro death of leukemic cells. The ligation of IL-2R by IL-2 rescued T-ALL cells from death and promoted their progression toward more mature cells expressing extracellular CD3/TCR alpha beta complexes. Intracellular analysis indicates that TCR alpha transcription and membrane translocation of both TCR alpha and TCR beta were promoted in these conditions. Analysis of intracellular signals transduced during T-ALL differentiation indicated that CD2-ligation induced Ca2+ influx and that the ligation of CD2 and IL-2R induced distinct tyrosine phosphorylation patterns. The addition of inhibitors of tyrosine phosphorylation abolished T-ALL cell differentiation, which suggests the involvement of tyrosine kinases in this phenomenon. Together, we showed the constant maturation of leukemic early T cells after stimulation of surface CD2 and the high-affinity IL-2R.

Abstract
Elevated IgE levels are commonly observed during the inflammatory responses in allergy and a variety of infections. This Ig activates the release of multiple mediators from monocytes/macrophages. In the present work, we attempted to clarify the IgE-dependent events involved in the activation of monocyte functions. IgE-anti-IgE immune complexes induce the production of tumor necrosis factor-alpha, oxygen radicals, IL-6 and thromboxane B2 from normal human purified monocytes. Expression and cross-linkage of Fc epsilon RII/CD23 were essential for these IgE-mediated effects. Cytokine production following CD23 ligation depended on nitric oxide transduction pathway, as it was inhibited by NG-monomethyl-L-arginine, a competitive inhibitor of the conversion of L-arginine to L-citroline by nitric oxide synthase. Furthermore, addition of the nitric oxide chemical donator, Sin-1, enhanced IgE-induced monokine release. CD23-ligation also induced the production of nitrites by these cells. This work linked CD23 to the L-arginine-dependent transduction pathway and shows their involvement in IgE-mediated stimulation of human monocytes.

Abstract
Epidermal keratinocytes (EK) are exposed to multiple inflammatory stimuli and paracrine factors secreted by various dermal cells (lymphocytes, mast-cells, macrophages, fibroblasts) during wounding, cutaneous allergy and infections. We have previously demonstrated that following stimulation with interleukin-4 (IL-4) or interferon-gamma, human EK express the low affinity receptor for IgE (Fc epsilon RII/CD23) on their surface. In the present study, we showed that the ligation of CD23 by IgE/anti-IgE immune complexes or specific monoclonal antibody, induces a dose-dependent release of interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha from EK. CD23-ligation activates the nitric oxide-dependent pathway, as demonstrated by the high levels of nitrites released in cell supernatants, and the accumulation of intracellular cyclic nucleotides in EK. These second messengers are required for IgE-dependent stimulation of cytokine production by these cells, as this is completely abolished by cAMP or NO synthase antagonists. Human epithelial keratinocytes may thus participate in IgE-mediated immune responses, through their ability to express functional CD23 antigen.

Abstract
Transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) can have stimulatory or inhibitory effects on cell growth. For several cell types, the effect of TGF-beta 1 was found to correlate with the differentiation stage of the cells and the presence of other cytokines. We have studied here the influence of TGF-beta 1 on CD4+ T cell activation in relation to the differentiation stage of the cells by evaluating the effect of TGF-beta 1 on the proliferative responses of purified CD4+CD45RA+ (unprimed) and CD4+CD45RO+ (primed) lymphocytes. Under certain conditions, TGF-beta 1 exerted a co-stimulatory effect on peripheral blood CD4+CD45RA+ T cells whereas the outgrowth of CD4+CD45RO+ T cells was suppressed in any activation system tested. The enhancement of proliferative responses by TGF-beta 1 in TCR/CD3 or CD2 stimulated cultures of CD45RA+ cells involved up-regulation of CD25 expression and was dependent on the presence of exogenous IL-2 or CD28 mAbs; IL-7 driven proliferative responses were suppressed by TGF-beta 1. These observations were confirmed in experiments with purified cord blood (CB) CD4+ T cells inasmuch as addition of TGF-beta 1 caused a 2- to 7-fold increase in IL-2 driven proliferative responses of these cells. Finally we show that, in contrast to the effect of TGF-beta 1 during primary stimulation of CD CD4+ T cells, TGF-beta 1 suppressed T cell proliferation for approximately 40% in secondary cultures of these cells.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
We report herein the phenotypic and functional analysis of human bone marrow and thymus derived early T cells. Commitment to T cell lineage is acquired during CD7 antigen expression by CD34+ precursors in human bone marrow and before thymus colonization. Early thymocytes show similar phenotypic characteristics as bone marrow T cells. They rapidly acquire CD4 before the dual expression of CD4 and CD8. Their expansion and differentiation is regulated by two major factors: thymic stroma and cytokines produced by these stroma cells or by thymocytes themselves. Among cytokines, IL1 and sCD23 produced by thymic epithelial cells support in vitro early T cell development.

Abstract
The effects of interleukin 4 (IL-4) on human leukemic precursor B-cell lines were investigated. Recombinant IL-4 (rIL-4) was added to three acute lymphoblastic leukemia-derived pre B-cell lines: Reh, Km3 and Nalm-6. Our results show that rIL-4 significantly decreases continuous proliferation of Reh and Km3 cells while Nalm-6 cells have a limited response in this respect. This rIL-4 effect is dose-dependent and can be neutralized by anti-IL-4 monoclonal antibody (mAb). Furthermore, rIL-4 down-regulated IL-3-induced proliferation of Reh cells. Phenotypic analysis of rIL-4-treated cells points to significant induction of surface marker maturation of leukemic cells by this cytokine. Together, these in vitro data suggest that IL-4: 1) inhibits the proliferation and 2) promotes the differentiation of certain human leukemic B-cell precursors.

Abstract
The regulation of the low affinity receptor for IgE (Fc epsilon RII/CD23) expression and its role were investigated in U937 cell line and in leukemic cells from a patient (Amb) with acute myeloblastic leukemia. Both cell populations were CD23- but could acquire CD23 expression following treatment with IL-4. CD23+ cells, however, remained blastic and did not show any significant phenotypical and functional modifications. Following ligation of the CD23 on U937 and Amb cells by anti-CD23 mAb, these leukemic cells differentiated into mature monocyte/macrophage-like cells. CD23 ligation promoted the expression of the monocyte marker, CD14, increased the expression of the common beta chain of the LFA-1 family (CD18), and down-regulated the expression of the promonocytic marker CD33. Morphological and phenotypical changes were associated with functional modifications as CD23 ligation allowed the acquisition of the oxidative metabolism in leukemic cells as revealed by luminol-dependent chemiluminescence. As in mature monocytes, CD23 ligation induced an accumulation of intracellular cAMP in leukemic cells. These data indicate that ligation of CD23 may induce the maturation of myelomonocytic cells into monocytic-like cells.

Abstract
It is well established that basophils and eosinophils share a common differentiation pathway, although the factors regulating their terminal commitment (towards one or other lineage) are not yet fully defined. Interleukin-3 (IL-3) is a major differentiation factor for both human eosinophils and basophils, yielding a mixed population composed predominantly of eosinophilic cells (65 +/- 9%; n = 4), basophils at different stages of maturity (29 +/- 6%; n = 4) and monocytes/macrophages (6 +/- 3%; n = 4), after 3-4 weeks in culture. Using a relatively rapid and simple method involving a first step of gradient density centrifugation over a Percoll gradient (d = 1.063 g/ml) and a subsequent step of adhesion on tissue-culture-treated plastic, a cell population composed of 94 +/- 5% normal basophils and their precursors, with no demonstrable mast cells, was reproducibly obtained from human hematopoietic cells cultured for 3-4 weeks in the presence of recombinant IL-3. These cells contained high levels of histamine (1.39 +/- 0.14 pg/cell) and released this mediator upon stimulation with calcium ionophore A23187 and in a dose dependent manner upon stimulation with IgE-anti IgE, demonstrating their functional capacity. This relatively simple method therefore permits the production of large quantities of pure populations of normal and functional human bone-marrow-derived-basophils.

Abstract
Human CD23 and its soluble forms (sCD23) display various biological activities, in addition to their IgE binding function (IgE/BF). The IgE binding domain was recently mapped to residues between Cys163 and Cys282 but its involvement in IgE-independent, CD23 functions remains unknown. In order to clarify this point, a series of N-terminal, C-terminal and internal deletion mutants of CD23 or sCD23 were expressed in CHO cells and tested for their ability (i) to bind to IgE, (ii) to induce colony formation by human myeloid precursor cells, (iii) to promote mature T cell marker expression by early prothymocytes, and (iv) to regulate IgE synthesis. The present study indicates that cytokine activities require the presence of Cys288, while this amino acid is not necessary for IgE/BF. Blocking experiments using various conformation-sensitive monoclonal antibodies further suggest that active epitope(s) of CD23 in cytokine assays is(are) distinct from those involved in IgE/BF.

Abstract
CD23 is a surface antigen expressed by a variety of human hematopoietic cells and shown to display multiple biological functions. In present work, we assayed CD23 expression by human bone marrow (BM) or by stromal cells derived from this tissue. While freshly isolated BM-cells showed low CD23 expression, a subset of long term BM-culture (LTBMC)-derived stromal cells expressed CD23 mRNA at high levels in their steady state and secreted soluble CD23 in their culture supernatants. To assay the role of CD23 in LTBMC, these cultures were initiated in the presence of neutralizing anti-CD23 mAb. A dramatic decrease in total numbers of hematopoietic cells and CFU-GM recovery was observed in these cultures as compared to controls. These data suggest a role of CD23 expression in stroma cell functions and further confirm the ability of this antigen to regulate human hematopoietic cell development.

Abstract
Human epidermal keratinocytes (EK) secrete factors able to sustain the proliferation of early myeloid cells and, in particular, the generation of basophils. This activity was previously attributed to IL-3, although no definitive in situ demonstration of this cytokine was provided. In regard to the possible physiological relevance of these data, we investigated herein the nature of EK-derived factors responsible for basophil promotion. Our data show that EK-derived supernatants (EK-sup) contain IL-3 as well as soluble CD23 (sCD23), both known for their colony stimulating activity. Messenger RNA for IL-3 and CD23 were also detected in EK. Blocking experiments using specific neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (mAb) further indicate that EK-derived basophil promoting activity is mainly due to the presence of IL-3 and sCD23 in EK-sup. Furthermore, by contrast to IL-3, sCD23 secretion by EK is cortisone sensitive and highly enhanced by IL-4, suggesting distinct regulatory mechanisms for their production.

Abstract
Sézary syndrome is a cutaneous T cell lymphoma characterized by infiltration of the skin by CD4+ cells. These cells generally respond poorly to mitogens and T cell activators. We have studied the action of IL1 to IL4, IL6, and IL7 on the proliferation of Sézary cells from 12 patients. With the exception of IL2 and IL7, the cytokines studied had no proliferative effect on these cells. Whereas IL2 had only a low proliferative capacity (two- to threefold increase) on peripheral blood mononuclear cells, recombinant IL7 constantly induced a very significant (3-40-fold increase) proliferative response, and was used successfully to generate cell lines in three out of eight cases. Growth of Sézary cell lines was shown to be strictly dependent on IL7, and after 2-5 wk of culture presented a switch to a homogeneous phenotype CD3+4+8-7- (except for one line that remained CD7+), with a typical morphology of Sézary cells. Their tumoral origin was demonstrated by the expression of the same T cell receptor-beta gene rearrangement as the patients' T cells. Importantly, cultured normal epidermal keratinocyte supernatants could support the growth of our Sézary lines. Furthermore, the proliferative activity contained in these supernatants was completely blocked by a monoclonal anti-IL7 antibody. These results suggest that IL7 may, therefore, represent an important cytokine in the physiopathology of cutaneous T cell lymphoma.

Abstract
During their development, human CD7+ lymphoid stem cells migrate into the thymus where, following intimate contact with thymic tissue, they proliferate and differentiate into functionally mature T lymphocytes. In this study, we investigated the effect of thymic epithelial cell-derived supernatants (TEC-SN) on early CD7+CD2-CD3- thymocytes. Our results indicate that TEC-SN are able to promote CD2 and CD3/TcR alpha/beta expression by CD7+ precursors. This activity correlated with soluble CD23 and interleukin 1 levels in TEC-SN. Furthermore, monoclonal antibodies to these cytokines decreased in vitro maturation of prothymocytes. Thus, in addition to cell-cell interactions, human TEC produce cytokines able to support early steps of thymocyte differentiation.

Abstract
Low-affinity Fc epsilon receptor (Fc epsilon RII/CD23) is expressed by various human cells and known to be cleaved into soluble fragments (sCD23). Several biological activities were ascribed to these molecules. In this study, we have assessed the effect of recombinant 25-kDa sCD23 (rsCD23) on human bone marrow-derived T cells. Our results show that rsCD23 in synergy with recombinant interleukin 1 enhances mitogenic responsiveness of CD4+ T cells but does not affect CD8+ cell growth. Furthermore, rsCD23 synergizes autologous marrow cells in enhancement of CD4+ cell growth while CD23 monoclonal antibodies decrease accessory cell effect. Together, these data confirm cytokine-like activity of sCD23 on human T cell lineage.

Abstract
Interleukin-3 (IL-3) is a hematopoietic growth factor suggested to be produced by activated T lymphocytes. Meanwhile, supernatants from human thymic stroma could promote the proliferation of myeloid stem cells. Thus, we investigated whether IL-3 accounts for this activity. Therefore, human thymic epithelial cells (TEC), fibroblasts, and adherent cells were isolated, and their culture supernatants assayed for myeloid colony promotion. Only supernatants from thymic epithelial cells supported colony-forming unit growth in semisolid media. This effect decreased following anti-IL-3 monoclonal antibody addition to these cultures. Furthermore, in situ hybridization showed the presence of IL-3 mRNA in epithelial cells. Effect of TEC culture conditions on IL-3 production by these cells was also studied. Together, these data show that IL-3 production is not the exclusive property of human activated T lymphocytes.

Abstract
Interleukin 3 (IL-3) and soluble CD23 (sCD23/IgERII) have similar capacities to induce basophil development from human bone marrow (BM) precursors. IL-3 also has the capacity to induce de novo histamine synthesis from human BM cells. In the present study, we examined the effect of sCD23 on histamine synthesis by human BM cells and its relationship with IL-3. Our data showed that recombinant 25 KDa sCD23, although on its own failed to induce histamine release, significantly enhanced IL-3-stimulated histamine synthesis by BM cells. These data provide further support for the cytokine-like role of sCD23 on hematopoietic cells.

Abstract
Low affinity Fc epsilon receptors (Fc epsilon RII/CD23) or their soluble fragments have various biologic effects on B- and T-cell lineages. In this study, we have assessed the effect of recombinant soluble CD23 (rsCD23) on the proliferation of human bone marrow (BM)-derived myeloid precursors with or without recombinant interleukin-1 (rIL-1) addition. Non-adherent CD2- or CD34+ BM cell subsets were used as target cells. Our results show that rsCD23 in synergy with rIL-1 displays an interleukin-3-like activity as it promotes the proliferation of multipotential marrow precursors. This effect was abolished by anti-CD23 addition to these cultures, but was not affected by anti-IL-3 monoclonal antibody. Furthermore, sequential study indicates that rIL-1 induces bone marrow cell responsiveness to rsCD23.

Abstract
It is well established that CD7, gp40 antigen is one of the first antigens detected on the surfaces of cells of the human T-cell lineage. Using complement-dependent cytotoxicity and immunoadherence to anti-CD7-coated surfaces, we were able to purify CD7+2-3-4-8-TcR- cells with greater than 90% purity from both human thymus and bone marrow. Limiting dilution analysis showed that these cells displayed high ability to generate mature T-cell clones when they were cultured in the appropriate conditions. These precursors needed phytohemagglutinin-stimulated leukocyte-conditioned medium (PHA-LCM) as a differentiation signal before being able to respond to PHA and recombinant interleukin 2 (rIL2). CD7+CD2- precursors differed from more mature CD7+CD2+ thymocytes because they were not sensitive to PHA, IL2, or CD2 triggering. Bone marrow-derived clones were mostly CD4+, whereas thymic cells generated more CD8+ than CD4+ clones. Together, this study indicates that the CD7+CD2- precursor is one of the earliest prothymocytes able to differentiate and proliferate in vitro.

Abstract
Triggering of distinct CD2 epitopes on human T lymphocytes increases their phosphatidylinositol (PI) cycle-related metabolism. In this work, we investigated the relationship between this signal transduction pathway following surface CD2 antigen triggering and intrathymic T cell development. Therefore, various thymocyte subsets were incubated with co-mitogenic CD2I+III mAb. The cells were then tested for their various phosphoinositides levels as well as their ability to proliferate in response to recombinant interleukin-2 (rIL-2). Our results indicate that immature CD4- CD8- cells have high PI metabolism while more mature CD4+CD8+ and unfractionated thymocytes display significantly lower PI-turnover. Mature CD4+CD8- and CD4-CD8+ thymocytes regain this transduction capacity. Thus, PI-turnover following CD2- triggering is linked to the developmental fate of thymocyte subclasses.
