Megjegyzések:	Neovascularization and hemorrhage are common features of malignant tumors. We wondered whether hemoglobin derived from extravasated RBC deposits heme-derived iron into the tumor, which could modulate the sensitivity of cancer cells to oxidant-mediated injury. A brief exposure (1 h) of 51Cr-radiolabeled breast cancer cells (BT-20) but not colon cancer cells (Caco-2) to hemin (10 microM) or FeSO4 (10 microM) significantly enhances cytotoxicity mediated by 0.5 mM hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Associated with Caco-2 resistance, these cells were found to be enriched in the endogenous iron chelator, ferritin. If cellular ferritin is even further increased through 1 h incubation (24 h prior to H2O2 exposure) of both cell types with hemin, FeSO4, or exogenous spleen apoferritin itself (24 h), marked resistance to H2O2-mediated cytotoxicity is manifest. Under several conditions, the sensitivity of tumor cells to oxidant-mediated lysis is inversely proportional to their ferritin content. Pretreatment of BT-20 and Caco-2 cells with hemin or FeSO4 rapidly increases H-ferritin mRNA but only slightly increases L-ferritin mRNA; nevertheless, large increases in overall ferritin content of iron-exposed cells result. Data analogous to those with H2O2-mediated cytotoxicity were obtained in studies of bleomycin-engendered DNA strand breakage and cell damage, i.e., brief treatment of BT-20 cells with both hemin or FeSO4 significantly increases their sensitivity to bleomycin (100 micrograms/ml), whereas treatment followed by 24 h incubation with media alone significantly protects against bleomycin toxicity. We speculate that acute exposure of tumors to iron (e.g., derived from heme-proteins in hemorrhagic cancerous lesions) may increase sensitivity of some cancer cells, particularly those relatively low in endogenous ferritin, to oxidant-mediated lysis. In contrast, repeated, more chronic, exposure effector cells or chemotherapeutic agents, an effect derived from their increased synthesis and accumulation of the intracellular iron scavenger, ferritin.

Cím:	C-reactive protein induces human peripheral blood monocytes to synthesize tissue factor / Cermak Jaroslav, Key Nigel S., Bach Ronald R., Balla Jozsef, Jacob Harry S., Vercellotti Gregory M.
Dátum:	1993

Megjegyzések:	The acute inflammatory response is frequently accompanied by serious thrombotic events. We show that C-reactive protein (CRP), an acute-phase reactant that markedly increases its serum concentration in response to inflammatory stimuli, induced monocytes to express tissue factor (TF), a potent procoagulant. Purified human CRP in concentrations commonly achieved in vivo during inflammation (10 to 100 micrograms/mL) induced a 75-fold increase in TF procoagulant activity (PCA) of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBM), with a parallel increase in TF antigen levels. CRP-induced PCA was completely blocked by a monoclonal antibody against human TF but not by irrelevant murine IgG. Dot blot analysis showed a significant increase of TF mRNA after 4 hours of incubation with CRP, followed by a peak of PCA within 6 and 8 hours. Actinomycin D and cycloheximide blocked CRP-stimulated PCA, suggesting that de novo TF protein synthesis was required. Endotoxin (LPS) contamination of CRP was excluded as the mediator of TF synthesis because: (1) CRP was Limulus assay negative; (2) induction of TF PCA by CRP was not blocked by Polymyxin B, in contrast to LPS-induced PCA; (3) antihuman CRP IgG inhibited CRP-induced PCA, but not LPS-induced PCA; (4) CRP was able to stimulate TF production in LPS-pretreated PBM refractory to additional LPS stimulation; and, (5) unlike LPS, CRP was incapable of inducing TF in human umbilical vein endothelial cells. We suggest that CRP-mediated TF production in monocytes may contribute to the development of disseminated intravascular coagulation and thrombosis in inflammatory states.
