Cytokine production by macrophages in association with phagocytosis of etoposide-treated P388 cells in vitro and in vivo

Abstract: Chemotherapy and radiotherapy are performed for cancer patients with the hope that dying cancer cells are safely scavenged by phagocytic cells such as macrophages. In this study, we examined cytokine production by macrophages during and after the phagocytosis of etoposide-treated P388 cells in vitro and in vivo. Etoposide caused apoptosis as early as 5 h after treatment, as assessed as to the exposure of phosphatidylserine, increase in membrane permeability and DNA ladder formation. Phagocytosis by phorbol myr… Show more

“…Chemotherapy and radiotherapy are prescribed to cancer patients in the hope that dying cells will be safely scavenged by phagocytic cells, such as macrophages. However, in vitro and in vivo studies showed that phagocytosis of VP-16-treated P388 cells by macrophages was associated with the release of IL-8 and other cytokines, such as MIF and MIP-2 (Kawagishi et al, 2001). In addition, VP-16 and the chemotherapeutic agent mitomycin were also found to induce IL-8 and TNF-a production by a human epithelial carcinoma cell line (KB cells) that expressed platelet-activating factor receptor (Darst et al, 2004).…”

“…Several studies have indicated that in addition to their known cytotoxic effects, many chemotherapeutic agents, including VP-16, are also prooxidative stressors (Kagan et al, 2001) and trigger cytokine production in a variety of cell types in vitro (Kawagishi et al, 2001;Darst et al, 2004). These findings were supported by reports of significant levels of proinflammatory cytokines in patients undergoing chemotherapy for a variety of tumours (Villani et al, 2002).…”

“…However, we reported previously that the expression of a proinflammatory chemokine, IL-8 or MIP-2, but not TNF-␀, was upregulated on coculturing of macrophages with apoptotic cells at the mRNA and protein levels (6 -8). In addition, we reported that injection of late apoptotic cells into the mouse peritoneal cavity caused the production of MIP-2 and infiltration of neutrophils, and that the macrophages ingesting and/or binding to apoptotic cells, which were isolated with a cell sorter, produced a similar amount of MIP-2 as in the case of coculturing of peritoneal exudate cells (PEC) 3 with apoptotic cells (9,10). Moreover, we recently showed that anti-MIP-2 and anti-CXCR2 Abs significantly suppressed the neutrophil infiltration caused by injection of apoptotic cells into the peritoneal cavity, suggesting that the neutrophil infiltration is mainly caused by MIP-2 (11).…”
