Interferon-γ and Lipopolysaccharide Potentiate Monocyte Tissue Factor Induction by C-Reactive Protein

Abstract: Synergy between CRP and inflammatory mediators may play a direct prothrombotic role in the pathogenesis of coronary atherosclerosis and its acute complications by increasing monocyte/macrophage TF. This may contribute to age and sex differences in coronary events and to the protective effects of HRT.

“…In addition to activation of the extrinsic coagulation cascade, factor VII binding to TF initiates intracellular signaling in monocytes/macrophages that may potentiate inflammation (17). Although not normally expressed, TF on monocytes/macrophages is induced by mediators of the innate (e.g., LPS, CRP) and cell-mediated immune responses (18), and we showed these to be mutually interactive and proposed that the synergy between CRP and inflammatory mediators could play a prothrombotic role in the pathogenesis of coronary atherosclerosis (19). Lymphocytes, which do not express TF themselves, are required for optimal TF production by monocytes/macrophages (18).…”

“…After the final thaw, PCA of PBMC (100 l) was measured using a one-stage plasma recalcification test with an automatic coagulometer (Diagnostica Stago), as described (19). PCA was calculated from a standard curve using dilutions of rabbit brain extract (Sigma-Aldrich) as standard; results are expressed as mU TF/10 6 cells or as stimulation index (SI) (TF-SI: mU TF of stimulated PBMC divided by mU TF of unstimulated PBMC).…”

“…Several other inflammatory markers for prediction of coronary accidents in healthy men and women and in patients with stable angina, acute coronary diseases and in follow up of cardiovascular accident have been studied. These markers include Values are mean ± SD; P [ 0.05 not significant; P \ 0.0001 highly significant interleukin (IL-6) [20,21], serum amyloid A (SAA) [22], Tumour necrosis factor-a (TNF-a) [23], CD40 ligand [24]. Among these markers CRP has emerged as most powerful inflammatory marker of future cardiovascular risk [25][26][27].…”
