Kupffer Cell- Mediated Cytotoxicity Induced by Lipopolysaccharide0111:b4 Is Greater in Dogs Than in Rats and Monkeys

Abstract: -To clarify the mechanism of sensitivity to an endotoxin lipopolysaccharide LPS0111:B4, which causes severe liver injury in a variety of animals, we have developed an in vitro assay to measure Kupffer cell-mediated cytotoxicity in the human liver cell line, WRL68. This assay could detect the decrease in Kupffer cell activity induced by gadolinium chloride (GdCl 3 ), which is an inhibitor in Kupffer cells. Among Kupffer cells derived from dogs, rats, and monkeys, LPS-activated canine Kupffer cells exhibited rem… Show more

“…47 Canine Kupffer cells are more reactive than Kupffer cells from rat or monkey, and secrete greater levels of cytokines interleukin-1b and interleukin-6 in response to lipopolysaccharide. 48 Depletion of Kupffer cells does not negatively impact DNA delivery or gene expression after hydrodynamic delivery in mice. 38 Future experiments will determine whether a drug or combination of drugs that block Kupffer cell activity and/or prevents the release of circulating immune cells is effective at achieving a longer duration of expression.…”

“…However, in the canine macrophage cell line DH82, lipopolysaccharide treatment has been shown to induce inflammatory activation through NFκΒ (Kim et al 2006). Lipopolysaccharides induce the expression of IL-6 in canine macrophages, such as DH82 cells (Fujimoto et al 2012), blood mononuclear cells and Kupffer cells in vitro (Hamano et al 2002;Shi et al 1995). Moreover, IL-6 expression is associated with inflammation (Spitzbarth et al 2011) and macrophage infiltration into inflamed tissues in dog (Klocke et al 2005).…”
