Lung macrophage-epithelial cell interactions amplify particle-mediated cytokine release

Abstract

Interactions between alveolar macrophages (AMs) and epithelial cells may promote inflammatory responses to air pollution particles. Normal rat AMs, the alveolar type II epithelial cell line RLE-6TN (RLE), or cocultures of both cell types were incubated with various particles (0-50 microg/ml) for 24 h, followed by assay of released TNF-alpha and MIP-2. The particles used included titanium dioxide (TiO2), alpha-quartz (SiO2), residual oil fly ash (ROFA), or urban air particles (UAP). For all particles, a dose-dependent increase in TNF-alpha and MIP-2 release was observed in AM+RLE co-cultures but not in RLE or AM monoculture. AM+RLE co-culture also synergistically enhanced basal levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-2. In contrast, when AMs were co-cultured with fibroblasts, basal and particle-induced TNF-alpha and MIP-2 were similar to levels found in AM monoculture. Particle uptake by AMs was similar in mono- or AM+RLE co-culture. Increased basal and particle-induced cytokine release were not observed when the AMs were physically separated from the RLE. This contact-dependent cytokine potentiation could not be blocked with anti-CD18/anti-CD54, arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD) pept...Continue Reading
