Down-Regulation and Release of CD14 On Human Monocytes by IL-4 Depends on the Presence of Serum Or GM-CSF

Abstract: IL-4 induces down-regulation of CD14 expression on human monocytes only when the cells are cultured with serum. In serum-free cultures we failed to down-regulate CD14 by IL-4. Instead of serum, GM-CSF was required as a co-factor to restore the regulatory effect of IL-4 on CD14-expression. After 4 days of culture human monocytes were quantitatively CD14-negative as determined by flow-cytometry. On day 6, high amounts of CD14 molecules were detected in the SUP of these cultures, whereas intracellular immunofluor… Show more

“…In the present work, DC were also obtained from peripheral blood using lower concentrations of IL-4 and GM-CSF than previously reported (50 and 100 U/ml, respectively). These cells expressed high levels of MHC class I and 11, CD80, CD86, CD4, CD40, CD33 and CD54 molecules, and had a great stimulatory activity for T cell proliferation, confirming that low concentrations of IL-4 and GM-CSF can generate cells with a high accessory capacity [28]. Under our experimental conditions, 9-60 YO of the large cells, corresponding to 4-45 % of the total number of cultured cells, were found to express the CDla antigen.…”

“…Further studies will be needed to determine the molecular basis of this cellular and substrate selectivity and whether this selectivity is apparent with primary populations of macrophages (35,36) and DC (37). BPI-dependent delivery of purified endotoxin, OM blebs, and intact Gram-negative bacteria is CD14-independent (17,18), compatible with the very low levels of membrane-bound CD14 in immature DC (38) (Fig. 1).…”

“…[41][42][43] Monocytes cultured in vitro in serum-containing medium (eg, fetal calf serum or human serum) develop characteristics of immature DCs after 6 or 7 days. 4,43,44 In contrast to such lengthy culture activation, monocytes can also acquire characteristics of DCs more rapidly. 45 Randolph et al 46 have shown, using an endothelial reverse-transmigration model, that monocytes crossing an endothelial monolayer and contacting particulate collagen matrix can acquire characteristics of DCs in as few as 2 days.…”
