Defense mechanisms of the peritoneal cavity

Abstract: The peritoneal cavity contains resident and migratory cell populations, which play crucial roles in the local defensive response against bacterial invasion. Although mononuclear phagocytes predominate in the peritoneal cavity of healthy subjects, recent attention has been focused on mesothelial and dendritic cells. Kinetic analysis of inflammatory mediators has derived from experimental models of peritonitis, but advances in the understanding of the roles of molecules such as lipocortins, PAF, leukotriene B4, … Show more

“…More than 90% of CD11b + cells were positive for the macrophage-specific Ag F4/80, which is expressed by mature macrophages (44), indicating a defect in the migration of those cells to the peritoneum. Using a model of thioglycolateelicited peritonitis to study macrophage emigration described previously (10,11), we show in this study that macrophage emigration to lymph nodes is reduced after LPS challenge in the absence of Cox-2. Cox-2 2/2 macrophages were defective with regard to migration toward CCR2-and CCR5-binding chemokines, as were cox-2 +/+ macrophages treated with Cox-2-specific inhibitors, whereas cox-2 2/2 bone marrow-derived DCs migrated normally in response to MIP-3b (a ligand of the CCR7 receptor).…”

“…Macrophages are able to emigrate from the peritoneal cavity to adjacent lymph nodes in response to LPS (11). To address whether emigration of cox-2 2/2 peritoneal macrophages to lymph nodes was also affected, we transferred peritoneal-elicited macrophages freshly isolated from cox-2 +/+ and cox-2 2/2 mice into the peritoneal cavity of C57BL/6 mice.…”

“…Antibakteriyel özellikler içerisinde opsonizasyon, kemotaksis, fagositoz ve öldürme fonksiyonları ön plandadır (9). Bakterinin öldürül-mesine kadar olan aşamada kompleman bağlama, fagositoz yapan hücrelere bağlanma, antiprotein antikor ve antipolisakkarit antikor olarak IgG'nin önemi iyi bilinmektedir.…”
