Involvement of MIP-2 and CXCR2 in neutrophil infiltration following injection of late apoptotic cells into the peritoneal cavity

Abstract: Apoptotic cells are cleared by phagocytes, such as macrophages, as soon as they appear in vivo. If apoptosis occurs acutely, however, macrophages may be outnumbered by apoptotic cells, which causes late apoptosis. We previously showed that injection of late apoptotic cells into the peritoneal cavity led to transient infiltration of neutrophils. In this study, we examined the involvement of MIP-2 and CXCR2 in the neutrophil infiltration. We first produced a recombinant MIP-2 protein, and a fusion protein betwee… Show more

“…The neutrophil infiltration into the thymus after x-irradiation was significantly reduced by either anti-MIP-2 or anti-CXCR2 Abs, as previously reported for neutrophil infiltration induced by injection of late apoptotic cells (11), suggesting that the neutrophil infiltration in both cases is mediated mainly by MIP-2. It should be noted that these Abs are specific to MIP-2 and CXCR2, respectively, and that anti-MIP-2 Abs do not bind to KC (11).…”

“…It should be noted that these Abs are specific to MIP-2 and CXCR2, respectively, and that anti-MIP-2 Abs do not bind to KC (11). In man, the neutrophil infiltration is strictly regulated by IL-8, and its receptors, CXCR1 and CXCR2 (34 -37).…”

“…We favor the latter explanation, because the presence of apoptotic neutrophils that are not rapidly cleared can lead to secondary necrosis and cell lysis, releasing proinflammatory mediators (16). In addition, although engulfment of apoptotic cells triggers antiinflammatory mediator release from macrophages, engulfment of late apoptotic or necrotic cells triggers proinflammatory mediator release (36). The mechanisms involved in both scenarios may have contributed to further neutrophil recruitment.…”
