Interaction of IL-1β, IL-6 and tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in human T cells activated by murine antigens

Abstract: SUMMARYWe used a mixed leucocyte culture between human T cells and irradiated murine splenocyles which allowed us to distinguish between cytokine production from the responder and stimulator cells by the use of species-specific assays for niRNA up-regulation. Using this model ofT cell activation by antigen, we studied the effects of human antigen-presenting cell-derived cytokines IL-t/i. IL-6 and TNF-:x on the activation of human T eell subsets. We show in this system that exogenously added IL-l/f. lL-6 and TN… Show more

“…We therefore suggest that positive feedback by IL-6 on IL-1␤ secretion occurs with stress and that the role is to partially negate the downregulatory effect of corticosterone on IL-1␤. This suggestion is supported by an earlier in vitro finding of IL-6-stimulated upregulation of IL-1␤ mRNA in human T cells (51). However, because this suggestion is based in part on the assumption of transiently elevated IL-6, which was no longer evident under the basal conditions at death, it can only be proven definitively in vivo, by assessment of multiple time points after an acute stressor when IL-6 will also be sufficiently elevated to be easily detectable.…”

“…Furthermore, IL-1␤ increases the expression of I-A, B7-2, CD40, and ICAM-1 in LC, all of which are crucial in stimulating T cells (40). At the T cell level, IL-1␤ promotes T cell proliferation by up-regulating T cell production of IL-2 and IL-2R (41). It is unclear whether LC production of IL-1␤ acts in an autocrine fashion on the LC, on the T cells, or both.…”

“…LC are the only source of cutaneous IL-1 g [26], and IL-1 g induces LC migration and increases expression of I-A, B7-2, CD40, and ICAM-1 in LC [27,28]. IL-1 g also promotes T cell proliferation, up-regulating production of IL-2 and IL-2 receptor [29]. In contrast, IL-10 attenuates Th1-mediated immune responses.…”
