Induction of Endothelial Cell/Macrophage Procoagulant Activity: Synergistic Stimulation by Gamma Interferon and Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor

Abstract: SummaryInflammatory mediators such as endotoxin can stimulate the expression of procoagulant activity on both endothelial cells and macrophages while the monokines Interleukin 1, IL-1, and Tumor Necrosis Factor, TNF induce procoagulant activity on endothelial cells. Incubation of murine peritoneal macrophages with suboptimal concentrations of endotoxin results in a two fold increase in procoagulant activity. Macrophages incubated with gamma interferon, IFN γ, or Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor… Show more

“…These data suggest that GM-CSF, but not G-CSF, induces an activation of coagulation. These data are in keeping with experimental data previously reported [5,23,27]. This activation of the coagulation system is presumably responsible for the increased AT consumption in our GM-CSF treated patients.…”

“…N O in SEB-induced shock not only downregulates the production of inflammatory cytokines as shown in this paper but might also reduce their pathogenic effects. As a matter of fact, the vasoactive properties of N O as well as its ability to inhibit platelet aggregation and adhesion could be important in counteracting the prothrombotic properties of TNF and IFN-3, (24,25). Indeed, we observed lesions of coagulative necrosis in the liver of mice coinjected with SEB and induced by SEB in L-NAME-treated mice.…”

“…Herein, we reported that anti-CD3 MoAb induces a systemic release of NO metabolites and that the priming for IFN-and TNF-production in the course of T. cruzi infection is responsible, at least in part, for this NO overproduction. Although NO was involved in the haemodynamic changes occurring during septic shock [28], the vasoactive properties of NO as well as its ability to inhibit platelet aggregation and adhesion might protect vital organs from the prothrombotic properties of IFN-and TNF- [37,38]. Indeed, inhibition of the constitutive and inducible forms of NOS by agents such as L-NAME was previously shown to increase the toxicity of bacterial toxins [26,29].…”
