Interleukin-1β decreases HLA class II expression on a glioblastoma multiforme cell line

Abstract: Antigens encoded within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are not normally expressed in the central nervous system (CNS), but can be induced by treatment with interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). Other cytokines released during an inflammatory process can potentially influence MHC expression as well. One cytokine of interest is interleukin-1 (IL-1), an immunoregulatory polypeptide that is produced by macrophages and also by cells in the CNS. In this study, the effect of IL-1 beta on MHC expression in a human… Show more

“…RNA isolation and analysis. Total cellular RNA was isolated by the acidified guanidinium phenol-chloroform method (4) and analyzed by Northern (RNA) blotting as previously described (6). The probes used were as follows: pHLA-2a.1, an HLA-A locus-specific fragment (a gift from Harry Orr, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis) (21); HLA-DRA, a 600-bp 3' PstI fragment of HLA-DRA-10 (a gift from Eric Long, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Md.…”

“…GBM cells also secrete interleukin-1α and -1β (IL-1 α and β) ( 96 ). The down regulation of HLA class II expression on the U-105 MG GBM cell line by IL-1β suggests that this could be another mechanism which reduces immune recognition by CD4 + T cells ( 97 ).…”

“…Whereas TAMs do not show many traditional immunocyte properties, they can interfere with the functions of other immune cells to help GBM tumor progression. TAMs produce interleukin-1 (IL-1), an immunoregulatory polypeptide, to decrease the expression of cell surface antigen HLA class II in glioblastoma cancer cells, partially through impairing the cell response to IFN-gamma [ 60 ]. Thereby, macrophages help GBM cancer cells to escape from being targeted by T cells.…”
