Abstract
This study examined the establishment of neutrophilic inflammation in humans. We tested the hypotheses that neutrophil recruitment was associated with local CXCL8 production and that neutrophils themselves might contribute to the regulation of the size of the inflammatory response. Humans were challenged i.d. with endotoxin. Biopsies of these sites were examined for cytokine production and leukocyte recruitment by qPCR and IHC. Additional in vitro models of inflammation examined the ability of neutrophils to produce and sequester cytokines relevant to neutrophilic inflammation. i.d. challenge with 15 ng of a TLR4-selective endotoxin caused a local inflammatory response, in which 1% of the total biopsy area stained positive for neutrophils at 6 h, correlating with 100-fold up-regulation in local CXCL8 mRNA generation. Neutrophils themselves were the major source of the early cytokine IL-1β. In vitro, neutrophils mediated CXCL8 but not IL-1β clearance (>90% clearance of ≤2 nM CXCL8 over 24 h). CXCL8 clearance was at least partially receptor-dependent and modified by inflammatory context, preserved in models of viral infection but reduced in models of bacterial infection. In conclusion, in a human inflammatory model, neutrophils are rapidly recruited and may regulate the size and outcome of the inflammatory response through the uptake and release of cytokines and chemokines in patterns dependent on the underlying inflammatory stimulus.

Abstract
In the current work, we have demonstrated that both rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) interleukin 8 (IL-8), a CXC chemokine, and CK-6, a CC chemokine, are able of efficiently attracting RTS11, a rainbow trout established macrophage-monocyte-like cell line. Interestingly, two sub-populations of non-adherent cells are distinguishable by flow cytometry that could be identified as immature monocyte- and mature macrophage-like populations, respectively, and the two chemokines studied exert their effects on different populations. Although IL-8 specifically attracts the monocyte-like sub-population, CK-6 specifically attracts the macrophage-like cell sub-population. We have also determined the effects of both of these chemokines on RTS11 phagocytosis, respiratory burst and the expression of other immune-related genes. We found that IL-8 inhibited the phagocytosis capacity of RTS11 cells belonging to the macrophage-like profile. No effect was observed, however, on the respiratory burst, immune function that has been considerably affected throughout the establishment of the cell culture. Concerning the effect that IL-8 and CK-6 have on the expression of other immune genes, we found that IL-8 significantly induced the levels of expression of CK-6, IL-8, pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1beta and tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) of RTS11 cells. On the other hand, CK-6 induced the levels of expression of IL-8, iNOS and the integrin CD-18, while it had very faint effect on pro-inflammatory cytokines. These results constitute one of the very few studies in which the effect of IL-8, a CXC chemokine, on monocyte-like cells is described. Moreover, it demonstrates that different monocyte-macrophage sub-populations have different reactivity to different chemokines.

Abstract
Considering the role of interleukin-8 (IL-8) in a large number of acute and chronic inflammatory diseases, the regulation of IL-8-mediated biological responses is important. Alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH), a tridecapeptide, inhibits most forms of inflammation by an unknown mechanism. In the present study, we have found that alpha-MSH interacts predominantly with melanocortin-1 receptors and inhibits several IL-8-induced biological responses in macrophages and neutrophils. It down-regulated receptors for IL-8 but not for TNF, IL-4, IL-13 or TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) in neutrophils. It down-regulated CXCR type 1 and 2 but not mRNA levels. alpha-MSH did not inhibit IL-8 binding in purified cell membrane or affinity-purified CXCR. IL-8 or anti-CXCR Ab protected against alpha-MSH-mediated inhibition of IL-8 binding. The level of neutrophil elastase, a specific serine protease, but not cathepsin G or proteinase 3 increased in alpha-MSH-treated cells, and restoration of CXCR by specific neutrophil elastase or serine protease inhibitors indicates the involvement of elastase in alpha-MSH-induced down-regulation of CXCR. These studies suggest that alpha-MSH inhibits IL-8-mediated biological responses by down-regulating CXCR through induction of serine protease and that alpha-MSH acts as a potent immunomodulator in neutrophil-driven inflammatory distress.

Abstract
The lectin KM+ from Artocarpus integrifolia, also known as artocarpin, induces neutrophil migration by haptotaxis. The interactions of KM+ with both neutrophils and the extracellular matrix depend on the lectin's ability to recognize mannose-containing glycans. In the present study, we characterized the binding of KM+ to human neutrophils and the responses stimulated by this binding. Exposure to KM+ results in cell polarization, formation of a lamellipodium, and induction of deep ruffles on the cell surface. By fluorescence microscopy, we observed that KM+ is distributed homogeneously over the cell surface. KM+/ligand complexes are rapidly internalized, reaching maximum intracellular concentrations at 120 min, and decreasing thereafter. Furthermore, KM+ binding to the surface of human neutrophils is inhibited by the specific sugars, d-mannose or mannotriose. KM+-induced neutrophil migration is inhibited by pertussis toxin as well as by inhibition of CXCR2 activity. These results suggest that the KM+ ligand on the neutrophil surface is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR). The results also suggest that neutrophil migration induced by KM+ involves binding to CXCR2.

Abstract
The macrophage-derived neutrophil chemotactic factor (MNCF) is a D-galactose-binding lectin that induces neutrophil migration in vitro and in vivo. Neutrophil recruitment induced by MNCF is resistant to glucocorticoid treatment and is inhibited by the lectin-specific sugar, D-galactose. In the present study, we characterized the binding of MNCF to neutrophils and the responses triggered by this binding. Exposure to MNCF resulted in cell polarization, formation of a lamellipodium, and deep ruffles on the cell surface. By confocal microscopy, we observed that MNCF was evenly distributed on the cell surface after 30 min of incubation. The labeling intensity progressively diminished with longer incubations. Internalization kinetics showed that MNCF/ligand complexes were rapidly internalized, reaching maximum intracellular concentrations at 120 min and then decreased thereafter. The binding and internalization of MNCF were selectively inhibited by D-galactose. MNCF-induced neutrophil chemotaxis was inhibited by pertussis toxin. This fact strongly suggests that the MNCF-ligand on the neutrophil surface is a G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), similar to receptors for well-established neutrophil attractants. Our observations on the ability of MNCF to activate neutrophils are consistent with the increasing evidence for the participation of animal lectins in the innate immune response.

Abstract
Neutrophil chemokine receptor expression can be altered by exposure to Toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists, a process that is thought to have the potential to localize neutrophils to sites of infection. In order to investigate this process in more detail, we examined the regulation of highly pure neutrophil CXCR1 and CXCR2 expression and function by selective agonists of TLR2 (Pam(3)CSK(4)) and TLR4 (lipopolysaccharide, LPS). CXCR1 and CXCR2 were down-regulated by TLR engagement. CXCR2 loss was more rapid and showed a dependence upon soluble helper molecules (LPS binding protein and CD14) that was not evident for CXCR1, suggesting differential coupling of LPS signalling to CXCR1 and CXCR2 loss. However, TLR engagement in highly pure neutrophils did not result in complete loss of chemokine receptors, and LPS-treated neutrophils remained able to mount a respiratory burst to CXCL8 and CXCL1, and were able to migrate towards CXCL8 in assays of under-agarose chemotaxis. Thus, although treatment of purified human neutrophils with TLR2 and TLR4 agonists modifies chemokine receptor expression, remaining receptors remain functionally competent.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION/AIM This study was performed to examine the proficiency of mononuclear cells (MNC) and polymorphonuclear cells (PMN) in a whole blood model to expressing interleukin-8 (IL-8) in response to various stimuli. METHODS Isolated cells that had been recombined with heparinized plasma were incubated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS), phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha. RESULTS IL-8 release by MNC was most potently induced by LPS, reaching significant levels after 2-h incubation in the presence of 0.2 ng/ml LPS. In contrast, 5.0 ng/ml LPS was required for PMN to release significant amounts of the cytokine (P<0.001). When PMN and MNC were coincubated (MNC/PMN), LPS-induced IL-8 release was reduced compared to the release from MNC alone, regardless of the concentration of LPS used. IL-8 release by PMN was much more strongly induced by TNF-alpha, increasing by 1050% in the presence of 10 ng/ml TNF-alpha (P<0.005), whereas MNC or MNC/PMN subjected to this stimulus alone did not significantly enhance their IL-8 release. PMA had no effect on IL-8 release from either cell type. Since a high portion of IL-8 in blood is associated with cells, the IL-8 levels in isolated and lysed cell suspensions were also quantified. Thus, a considerably higher level of IL-8 was found in freshly isolated PMN (0.58+/-0.09 ng/ml) than in MNC (0.010+/-0.007 ng/ml). PMN remained the main source for cell-associated IL-8 after 2-h incubation in the absence of any added stimuli, harbouring a relatively high level of the cytokine (3.37+/-1.38 ng/ml), which was significantly enhanced in the presence of TNF-alpha (8.99+/-1.46 ng/ml, P<0.001). CONCLUSION This study shows that LPS is an effective inducer of IL-8 in MNC, whereas TNF-alpha is a potent agonist for IL-8 release from PMN. The main portion of cell-associated IL-8 is present in PMN when the cells are stimulated in their normal environment of plasma.

Abstract
IL-1 elicits its cellular effects by binding a heterodimeric receptor consisting of IL-1RI and the accessory protein, IL-1RAcPr. In addition, it binds to IL-1RII, which lacking signaling function has been ascribed a decoy role. The fate of the ligand following interaction with the decoy receptor was examined in human polymorphonuclear cells (PMN), which express predominantly (>90%) IL-1RII. Incubation of PMN with IL-1beta results in a rapid decrease in cell surface-associated ligand accompanied by a concomitant increase in internalized IL-1 with 50-60% of IL-1beta located intracellularly within 1 h at 37 degrees C. The use of blocking Abs revealed that IL-1 internalization is mediated exclusively by the decoy receptor. The results of inhibitor analysis demonstrate that internalization requires ATP synthesis and involves clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Following removal of the ligand, the receptor was rapidly re-expressed on the cell surface. Cyclohexamide, a protein synthesis inhibitor, had no effect upon the process, suggesting that the re-expressed receptor was recycled. In addition, human keratinocytes stably transfected with IL-1RII (HaCAT 811) also internalized the IL-1RII with 43% cell surface receptor internalized after 90 min. Immunofluorescence microscopy revealed colocalization of the internalized receptor with wheat germ agglutinin-labeled internalized glycoproteins and early endosome Ag-1, a protein associated with the early endosome compartments, indicative of cellular uptake of IL-1RII by endocytosis. In contrast, little or no internalization was observed in other cells of immune origin. These results suggest that the decoy receptor IL-1RII can act as a scavenger of IL-1, representing a novel autoregulatory mechanism of the IL-1 system.

Abstract
Chemokines are a group of structurally related peptides that promote the directed migration of leukocytes in tissue. Mechanisms controlling the retention of chemokines in tissue are not well understood. In this study we present evidence that two different mechanisms control the persistence of the CXC chemokine, IL-8, in lungs and skin. (125)I-labeled IL-8 was injected into the airspaces of the lungs and the dermis of the skin and the amount of (125)I-labeled IL-8 that remained at specified times was measured by scintillation counting. The (125)I-labeled IL-8 was cleared much more rapidly from skin than lungs, as only 2% of the (125)I-labeled IL-8 remained in skin at 4 h whereas 50% of the (125)I-labeled IL-8 remained in lungs at 4 h. Studies in neutropenic rabbits showed that neutrophils shortened the retention of (125)I-labeled IL-8 in skin but not lungs. A monomeric form of IL-8, N-methyl-leucine 25 IL-8, was not retained as long in lungs as recombinant human IL-8, indicating that dimerization of IL-8 is a mechanism that increases the local concentration and prolongs the retention of (125)I-labeled IL-8 in lungs. These observations show that the mechanisms that control the retention of IL-8 in tissue include neutrophil migration and dimerization, and that the importance of these varies in different tissues.

Abstract
It was suggested that bacterial products can inhibit the expression of leucocyte chemokine receptors during sepsis and affect leucocyte functions in septic syndrome. Superantigens and toxins produced by Staphylococcus aureus are capable of activating leucocytes via binding to MHC-II antigens on monocytes and T-cell receptor molecules on T lymphocytes. It was recently shown that staphylococcal enterotoxins directly down-regulate the expression of CC chemokine receptors on monocytes through binding to MHC class II molecules. We studied the effects of killed S. aureus on the expression of interleukin-8 receptors, CXCR1 and CXCR2, on polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMN), which are known to lack the expression of MHC-II antigens. It was shown that S. aureus down-regulated the cell-surface expression of CXCR1 and CXCR2 on PMN in the whole blood and total blood leucocyte fraction containing PMN and monocytes, but did not modulate IL-8 receptor expression in purified PMN suspension. Antibody to TNF-alpha abrogated down-regulation of IL-8 receptors induced by S. aureus. In contrast, LPS reduced CXCR1 and CXCR2 expression in purified PMN and whole blood in a TNF-alpha-independent manner. We further showed that TNF-alpha-induced decrease of CXCR1 and CXCR2 expression was associated with lower IL-8 binding and lower CXCR1 and CXCR2 mRNA levels, and was abrogated by protease inhibitors. We suggest that during septicemia, S. aureus may inhibit neutrophil responsiveness to IL-8 and other CXC chemokines via TNF-alpha- mediated down-regulation of CXCR1 and CXCR2.

Abstract
The human chemokine receptors CXCR5 and CXCR1 activate signaling pathways via pertussis toxin-sensitive as well as insensitive G proteins. CXCR5 induces Ca2+ signaling and chemotaxis independently of inhibitory G proteins, whereas the same signaling pathways are entirely dependent on inhibitory G proteins for CXCR1. In contrast, activation of the MAP kinase cascade via ERK1/2 is a pertussis toxin-sensitive signaling event for both receptors. Using chimeric CXCR1/CXCR5 receptors we investigated structural requirements for the activation of signal transduction pathways by CXCR5. Individual or multiple intracellular domains of CXCR1 were exchanged for the corresponding sequences of CXCR5, leading to receptors resembling CXCR5 at the cytoplasmic surface to a varying extent. Replacing the second intracellular domain of CXCR1 had a major influence on signaling mediated by inhibitory G proteins, whereas the exchange of the third or carboxy-terminal intracellular domain had only minor effects on signal transduction. Activation of the MAP kinase cascade via ERK1/2 and chemotaxis are largely reduced in chimeras comprising the second intracellular domain of CXCR5, although coupling to inhibitory G proteins is retained in all chimeric receptors. In summary, these data characterize the contribution of the intracellular domains of CXCR5 to receptor signaling, thereby disclosing unique structural requirements that modulate G protein coupling by the receptor.

Abstract
AbstractBackground: It has been shown that a high percentage of interleukin-8 (IL-8) in blood is cell associated. Recently, a simple method for determination of cell-associated IL-8 in whole blood after cell lysis has been described. The purpose of this study was to evaluate this method, to examine the influence of preanalytic sample handling, and to establish the concentration range of total IL-8 and its relation to age and sex in healthy subjects.Methods: Total IL-8 content of whole blood was determined after lysing blood cells with Milenia® cell lysis solution. IL-8 in the resulting blood lysate was measured with the IMMULITE® IL-8 immunoassay.Results: When freshly drawn blood was stored up to 48 h on ice, no significant changes in total IL-8 were measured in the subsequently prepared lysate, whereas with storage at room temperature, total IL-8 increased after 3 h from 94 ± 13 ng/L to 114 ± 16 ng/L (n = 10). In lysate stored for 48 h at 4 °C, marginal changes of the IL-8 concentration were noted, with storage at room temperature, only 76% ± 5% (n = 12) of initial concentration was recovered. From lysate frozen at −20 and −80 °C, respectively, 84% ± 4% and 93% ± 2% of initial IL-8 was recovered after 70 days (n = 10). IL-8 was measured with comparable precision in plasma (CV, 3.2–4.2%) and blood lysate (CV, 3.7–4.1%). When plasma was diluted with cell lysis solution, a slightly overestimated recovery (125% ± 3%) was observed; for lysate specimens with a cell lysis solution content ≥75%, the recovery after dilution was 98% ± 2%. In lysate prepared from 12 blood samples with exogenous IL-8 added, IL-8 recovery was 104% ± 2% (recovery from plasma <35%). The median total IL-8 in blood lysates from 103 healthy subjects (22–61 years) was 83 ng/L of blood (2.5–97.5 percentile range, 49–202 ng/L of blood). In females but not in males, total IL-8 increased significantly with advancing age (P <0.002). We found grossly increased total IL-8 in six pregnant women with amniotic infection syndrome.Conclusions: The evaluated method allows the assessment of total IL-8 in blood with good performance when appropriate conditions of sample pretreatment are considered. The values in healthy volunteers all were above the detection limit of the IL-8 assay; therefore, slight changes of total IL-8 could be noted. Thus, the present method is a suitable tool to study the diagnostic relevance of total IL-8 in blood.

Abstract
AbstractChemokines are small peptides that are potent activators and chemoattractants for leukocyte subpopulations and some nonhemopoietic cells. Their actions are mediated by a family of 7-transmembrane G-protein–coupled receptors, the size of which has grown considerably in recent years and now includes 18 members. Chemokine receptor expression on different cell types and their binding and response to specific chemokines are highly variable. Significant advances have been made in understanding the regulation of chemokine receptor expression and the intracellular signaling mechanisms used in bringing about cell activation. Chemokine receptors have also recently been implicated in several disease states including allergy, psoriasis, atherosclerosis, and malaria. However, most fascinating has been the observation that some of these receptors are used by human immunodeficiency virus type 1 in gaining entry into permissive cells. This review will discuss structural and functional aspects of chemokine receptor biology and will consider the roles these receptors play in inflammation and in infectious diseases.

Abstract
Abstract
Neutrophils (polymorphonuclear neutrophils; PMN) and a redundant system of chemotactic cytokines (chemokines) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of the acute respiratory distress syndrome in patients with sepsis. PMN express two cell surface receptors for the CXC chemokines, CXCR1 and CXCR2. We investigated the expression and function of these receptors in patients with severe sepsis. Compared with normal donors, CXCR2 surface expression was down-regulated by 50% on PMN from septic patients (p < 0.005), while CXCR1 expression persisted. In vitro migratory responses to the CXCR1 ligand, IL-8, were similar in PMN from septic patients and normal donors. By contrast, the migratory response to the CXCR2 ligands, epithelial cell-derived neutrophil activator (ENA-78) and the growth-related oncogene proteins, was markedly suppressed in PMN from septic patients (p < 0.05). Ab specific for CXCR1 blocked in vitro migration of PMN from septic patients to IL-8 (p < 0.05), but not to FMLP. Thus, functionally significant down-regulation of CXCR2 occurs on PMN in septic patients. We conclude that in a complex milieu of multiple CXC chemokines, CXCR1 functions as the single dominant CXC chemokine receptor in patients with sepsis. These observations offer a potential strategy for attenuating adverse inflammation in sepsis while preserving host defenses mediated by bacteria-derived peptides such as FMLP.

Abstract
Cells migrating within tissues may encounter multiple chemoattractant signals in complex spatial and temporal patterns. To understand leukocyte navigation in such settings, we have explored the migratory behavior of neutrophils in model scenarios where they are presented with two chemoattractant sources in various configurations. We show that, over a wide range of conditions, neutrophils can migrate "down" a local chemoattractant gradient in response to a distant gradient of a different chemoattractant. Furthermore, cells can chemotax effectively to a secondary distant agonist after migrating up a primary gradient into a saturating, nonorienting concentration of an initial attractant. Together, these observations suggest the potential for cells' step-by-step navigation from one gradient to another in complex chemoattractant fields. The importance of such sequential navigation is confirmed here in a model system in which neutrophil homing to a defined domain (a) requires serial responses to agonists presented in a defined spatial array, and (b) is a function of both the agonist combination and the sequence in which gradients are encountered. We propose a multistep model of chemoattractant-directed migration, which requires that leukocytes display multiple chemoattractant receptors for successful homing and provides for combinatorial determination of microenvironmental localization.

Abstract
Although interleukin (IL)-8 is well known as a chemotactic agent for neutrophil migration in vitro, the relationship between IL-8 activity and the degree of neutrophil infiltration in gastric mucosa is still unclear. In the present study, we investigated IL-8 and myeloperoxidase activity, a marker of neutrophil infiltration, in gastric antral mucosa using biopsy samples in 23 patients with no gastric lesions. The results indicate that there is a good correlation between IL-8 and myeloperoxidase activity (y = 0.173x + 13.9; r = 0.49, P < 0.01). Furthermore, IL-8 and myeloperoxidase activity are significantly higher in Helicobacter pylori-positive patients than in H. pylori-negative patients. In conclusion, an increase of IL-8 activity in the gastric mucosa causes increased neutrophil infiltration in human gastric mucosa and H. pylori infection accelerates these reactions in the mucosa.

Abstract
Interleukin-8 (IL-8), the prototypic member of the CXC subfamily of chemokines, induces in neutrophils chemotaxis, the respiratory burst, granule release, and increased cell adhesion. The IL-8 receptor is a seven-transmembrane spanning receptor coupled to specific heterotrimeric G proteins including Gi and G16. IL-8 stimulation of its receptor on neutrophils activates Ras GTP loading and the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway including Raf-1 and B-Raf. The properties of IL-8 stimulation of the MAPK pathway differ from those observed for chemoattractants such as C5a. Even though Ras GTP loading is similar for IL-8 and C5a, the maximal activation of Raf-1 and B-Raf is approximately 2-fold and 3-7-fold, respectively, less for IL-8 than that observed for C5a. Raf-1 activation is rapid but transient, returning to near basal levels by 10 min. B-Raf activation is slower in onset and does not return to basal levels for nearly 30 min. IL-8 activation of MAPK follows a time course suggesting an involvement of both Raf-1 and B-Raf. Surprisingly, wortmannin, at low concentrations, inhibits Raf-1, B-Raf, and MAPK activation in response to IL-8 and C5a demonstrating a role for phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase in the activation of Raf kinases in G protein-coupled receptor systems in human neutrophils. Furthermore, wortmannin inhibits IL-8 stimulated granule release and neutrophil adherence. These findings demonstrate the control of Raf kinases, the MAPK pathway and specific neutrophil functions by phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase enzymes.

Abstract
Interleukin-8 (IL-8), a neutrophil chemotactic agent, acts as a key mediator in a large number of acute and chronic inflammatory diseases. At 37 degrees C, the receptor for IL-8 is rapidly internalized with its ligand. But no specific inhibitor of this ligand induced internalization of the receptor has been reported so far. We have found that monodansyl cadaverine (MDC) inhibited about 70% of IL-8 induced endocytosis and caused 70% and 66% inhibition of IL-8 mediated chemotaxis and respiratory burst response, respectively, in neutrophils. The uninternalized receptor was detected by anti IL-8R antibody in MDC treated cells. The endocytosis of IL-8R was strongly inhibited under Ca2+ depleted conditions which was restored on addition of 1 mM CaCl2 indicating the critical involvement of a Ca2+ ion in the process. Absence of receptor internalisation makes the MDC treated neutrophils suitable for studying the interaction of IL-8R with potential therapeutic agents e.g. for in vitro screening of anti-inflammatory agents.

Abstract
Interleukin-8, a neutrophil chemotactic agent, is known to have an active role in the induction of inflammatory response in a number of diseases. Although the activity of IL-8 is known to be through a receptor (IL-8R) on the surface of neutrophils, no information is available regarding the regulation of the IL-8R expression. The present study demonstrates that serum activated LPS at a concentration of 10 ng/ml induces expression of functionally active IL-8R by 120% within 30 min through de novo protein synthesis. The upregulated receptors could be detected by anti-IL-8R antibody and could also be demonstrated by autoradiography with crosslinking 125I IL-8. The serum-activated LPS-stimulated neutrophils migrated faster and showed higher Ca2+ flux over the unstimulated cells. The LPS-induced receptors were downregulated rapidly, about 85% of the receptor activity being lost within 90 min of incubation at 37 degrees C. The downregulation could be partially prevented by treatment with a cocktail of protease inhibitors, suggesting the possible involvement of protease(s) in this process. Both EDTA (100 microM) and bestatin (40 microM) afforded almost complete protection of the receptor from proteolytic cleavage indicating that the enzyme involved is a metalloprotease, possibly an aminopeptidase. The study shows that stimulation of PMNs with LPS leads to induction of IL-8R expression enhancing the IL-8-mediated biological responses and also provides evidence for post-stimulatory restoration of receptor level on the neutrophil surface by proteolytic cleavage of the amino-terminal end of the receptor.

Abstract
Interleukin-8 (IL-8) is implicated in the pathogenesis of a large number of neutrophil-driven inflammatory diseases. Although the cytokine activates neutrophils through a receptor, no information is available regarding the regulation of IL-8 receptor (IL-8R) expression. The present study shows that, compared to control, the bacterial products--formylpeptide and LPS (serum-activated) upregulate IL-8 receptor by 54% and 115%, respectively, the former by degranulation of the secretory vesicle and the latter by de novo protein synthesis. The newly expressed IL-8R could be demonstrated with anti-IL-8R-antibody and by autoradiogram of the receptor crosslinked with [125I]IL-8. The study may be useful for understanding the potential role of IL-8 during neutrophil mediated inflammatory response.

Abstract
Interleukin 8 (IL-8) is a proinflammatory cytokine produced by a wide variety of cells. Interleukin 8 acts as a neutrophil activator and chemotactic factor. In the current studies, we examined the properties of a monoclonal antibody against human IL-8. The estimated affinity of the antibody was 1.74 x 10(7) liters/mol. The antibody interfered with the binding of radiolabeled recombinant human IL-8 (rhIL-8) to human blood neutrophils (IC50 = 3 x 10(-7) M, at an IL-8 concentration of 2.4 nM). Neutrophil degranulation elicited by 5 x 10(-6)-4 x 10(-8) M rhIL-8 was blocked by the antibody at three-fold molar excess. However, a higher concentration of anti-IL-8 antibody was needed to suppress the chemotactic activity of rhIL-8. The inhibition of neutrophil chemotaxis triggered by 2 x 10(-7)-2 x 10(-9) M rhIL-8 required 6 x 10(-5) M antibody. Similarly, a 300-fold molar excess of anti-IL-8 antibody [10(-5) M] was necessary to abrogate the increase in cytosolic free calcium in neutrophils stimulated with 4 x 10(-8) M rhIL-8. In addition, epitope analysis using synthetic peptides corresponding to different regions of the IL-8 molecule showed that peptide consisting of residues 44-72 (corresponding to the C-terminal of the IL-8 molecule) competed with the antibody for binding to rhIL-8. Because IL-8 is an important inflammatory mediator in several human diseases, anti-IL-8 antibodies may have pharmacological potential.

Abstract
We examined the biological and kinetic characteristics of two new members of the intercrine family of cytokines. Human macrophage inflammatory peptides 2 alpha and beta (huMIP-2 alpha and beta) were compared to human interleukin 8 (huIL-8), neutrophil activating peptide 2 (huNAP-2), and N-formyl-L-methionyl-L-phenylalanine (fMLP). The huMIP-2 peptides were the least potent cytokine tested in triggering neutrophil degranulation. They were also less potent neutrophil chemotaxins than fMLP or huIL-8. However, they were more effective than NAP-2 in stimulating chemotaxis of neutrophils. The binding studies showed that huMIP-2 peptides could interact with specific receptors on human blood neutrophils. Moreover, huMIP-2 peptides competed for up to 60% of the huIL-8 binding sites on neutrophils whereas huIL-8 competed for almost 100% of either of the huMIP-2 peptide binding sites. These data suggest the huMIP-2 peptides have little or no affinity for 40% of the huIL-8 receptors. In addition, detectable amounts of mRNA for huMIP-2 alpha were found in samples from human alveolar macrophages stimulated with Staphylococcus aureus, toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 (TSST), but not in samples stimulated with S. aureus enterotoxin A (SEA) or Escherichia coli endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide = LPS). In conclusion, huMIP-2 alpha and beta are weak neutrophil stimulating agents, which may increase inflammation in diseases such as toxic shock syndrome.

Abstract
Interleukin-8 (IL-8) is a peptide which is secreted by stimulated human monocytes and which is chemotactic for human neutrophils. We synthesized three overlapping peptides spanning the amino-terminal region of the IL-8 sequence. None of the peptides retained the chemotactic activity of the native molecule. One of the peptides, IL-8(3-25), inhibited the neutrophil chemotactic activity of recombinant IL-8 (rIL-8) which had been preheated to 40 degrees C but did not reduce neutrophil chemokinesis, or the chemotactic activity of unheated rIL-8, FMLP, C5a or LTB4. Interleukin-8 exhibited similar binding kinetics and chemotaxis for neutrophils regardless of whether it had been pretreated at 40 degrees C. In addition, IL-8(3-25) was also able to decrease the binding of preheated IL-8 to neutrophils. IL-8(3-25), which can self-associate, binds directly to receptors on the neutrophil. The data suggest that heat-treated, but not untreated, IL-8 causes the IL-8(3-25) multimers to disaggregate, allowing the monomeric peptide to directly bind to the IL-8 receptor and thus inhibiting IL-8/receptor binding.

Abstract
The human neutrophil activating peptides-1 and -2 (NAP-1/IL-8, NAP-2) are two structurally and functionally related members of the chemokine cytokine family. They are chemoattractants and activators of neutrophils and exert their effects by binding to specific receptors which are expressed on responsive cells. Two closely related IL-8 receptors of neutrophils have been characterized recently by molecular cloning. We show here that NAP-1/IL-8 and NAP-2 can be cross-linked to at least four protein bands from human neutrophil surfaces with apparent molecular masses of 55, 65, 71 and 81 kDa. The two cross-linked proteins with lower masses were associated with high, the two with the higher masses with low affinity binding of NAP-2, NAP-1/IL-8 was bound to all bands with high affinity. NAP-1/IL-8 and NAP-2 could also be cross-linked to form dimers when bound to cells and in solution. Our results show that more than two NAP-1/IL-8 receptors, or more than two forms of the known receptors exist. Alternatively, the four protein bands can be explained by cross-linking of ligand monomers and dimers, respectively, to the known receptors of neutrophils.

Abstract
Interleukin-8 (IL-8) is a polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) chemoattractant and activator which mediates its effects through specific cell-surface receptors. Indirect evidence indicates that guanine nucleotide regulatory proteins (G proteins) are necessary for transmembrane signaling. The present study characterizes IL-8 receptors in isolated PMN membrane fractions and shows direct regulation of these receptors by guanine nucleotides. The binding of [125I]IL-8 to subcellular fractions of PMNs showed specific binding in a low-density membrane fraction containing alkaline phosphatase, but not in primary or secondary granules. The binding of [125I]IL-8 was rapid and reversible. The equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd) of the receptor ranged from 5.0-12.4 nM and there were 1.58-5.90 . 10(10) receptors/mg protein. The dose-response curves for the competitive binding of three different forms of IL-8 to the receptor labeled by [125I]IL-8 corresponded with their ability to produce chemotaxis and granule exocytosis in PMNs. Treatment of membranes with the nonhydrolyzable analogs of GTP, GMP-PNP and GTP gamma S, inhibited the binding of [125I]IL-8. GMP-PNP decreased the affinity of the IL-8 receptor by approx. 2-fold without altering the total receptor number. These findings demonstrate that IL-8 receptors in PMN membranes are of high affinity and are convertible to a low-affinity state in the presence of guanine nucleotides, suggesting a direct role for G proteins in transmembrane signaling by this cytokine.

Abstract
Prognosis in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is not only correlated closely with blast cell count in bone marrow and chromosomal abnormalities but also correlated with decreased leucocyte count and function leading to acquisition of lethal infections. Recently, clinical trials in MDS have focused on the application of haemopoietic growth factors such as G-CSF or GM-CSF, which have proven to increase neutrophil count and function. However, these cytokines carry the risk of stimulating the malignant clone, particularly in patients with increased blast cell count. Therefore, investigation of cytokines which are able to stimulate neutrophil function without the potential risk of stimulating haemopoietic progenitor cells may be relevant for MDS. As the stimulatory effect of interleukin-8 on neutrophil function is well known, we investigated whether recombinant human IL-8 is also able to improve the function of neutrophils gained from patients with MDS. Using three different techniques--the E. coli killing assay (8 patients), the production of reactive oxygen as determined by cytochrome c reduction (7 patients) and chemiluminescence (8 patients)--a significant stimulation of neutrophil function at a concentration of 10 nm IL-8 was found in all test systems. No correlation with FAB classification was evident. On the other hand, IL-8 only mildly stimulated growth of myeloid progenitor cells in bone marrow culture of healthy individuals and MDS patients. This minimal stimulation was blocked by a neutralizing antibody directed against GM-CSF, suggesting an indirect effect of IL-8 via secondary GM-CSF release. Thus, IL-8 is able in vitro to repair the functional abnormalities of neutrophils from patients with MDS but has only a marginal influence on myeloid progenitor cells.

Abstract
1. The intradermal administration of endothelial IL-8 (IL-8(1-77) or monocyte derived IL-8 (IL-8(1-72) to rabbits produced a concentration-dependent increase in plasma extravasation and an accumulation of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) when measured over a 3 h time period. When plasma extravasation and PMN accumulation were measured over a 30 min time period no significant increases in PMN accumulation or plasma extravasation were observed in response to IL-8 alone. However, under these conditions, the addition of prostaglandin E2 (100 pmol) produced a significant potentiation of IL-8-induced plasma extravasation. There was no significant difference between the biological activities of IL-8(1-77) and IL-8(1-72). 2. Plasma extravasation and PMN accumulation induced by IL-8 were inhibited in rabbits pretreated with the monoclonal antibody designated IB4 (1 mg kg-1, i.v.) directed against the common beta chain (CD18) of the leukocyte integrins. 3. The intra-articular administration to rabbits of IL-8(1-77) (1 nmol) resulted 24 h later in the appearance of a mixed population of leukocytes (PMNs and mononuclear cells) in synovial lavage fluid. Biochemical analyses revealed the presence of an increased level of sulphated proteoglycans (sPG) and of the metalloproteinase stromelysin. Pretreatment of rabbits with IB4 (3 mg kg-1, i.v.) inhibited the accumulation of PMNs but had no effect on the mononuclear infiltrate nor on the levels of sPG or stromelysin. 4. The intradermal or intra-articular injection of E. coli-derived endotoxin induced similar inflammatory changes to those observed with IL-8.The possibility that the biological activities of IL-8 were attributable to minor contamination with endotoxin is unlikely for two reasons. Firstly, biological effects of endotoxin were observed at levels greater than that contained in the IL-8 preparation. Secondly,reduction of the endotoxin content of the IL-8 preparation by a factor of 10 did not produce a concomitant reduction in the observed biological activity of the IL-8.

Abstract
Putative tissue receptors for leukocyte attractants, including neutrophil attractant/activation protein-1 (interleukin 8, NAP-1/IL-8), have been implicated in the regulation of neutrophil emigration into the tissues. An in-situ binding assay and an ex-vivo autoradiographic approach were used to investigate the binding of radiolabeled NAP-1/IL-8 to human and animal skin. These methods revealed the presence of saturable NAP-1/IL-8-binding sites on the endothelial cells of venules and veins but not arteries or capillaries of the dermis. In addition, the binding of NAP-1/IL-8 to dermal macrophages and perivascular mast cells was observed. We suggest that the NAP-1/IL-8-binding sites described here could be involved in the regulation of NAP-1/IL-8-induced neutrophil emigration.

Abstract
Interleukin-8 (IL-8) is an inflammatory cytokine that activates neutrophil chemotaxis, degranulation, and the respiratory burst. Neutrophils express receptors for IL-8 that are coupled to guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins); binding of IL-8 to its receptor induces the mobilization of intracellular calcium stores. A cDNA clone from HL-60 neutrophils, designated p2, has now been isolated that encodes a human IL-8 receptor. When p2 is expressed in oocytes from Xenopus laevis, the oocytes bind 125I-labeled IL-8 specifically and respond to IL-8 by mobilizing calcium stores with an EC50 of 20 nM. This IL-8 receptor has 77% amino acid identity with a second human neutrophil receptor isotype that binds IL-8 with higher affinity. It also exhibits 69% amino acid identity with a protein reported to be an N-formyl peptide receptor from rabbit neutrophils, but less than 30% identity with all other known G protein-coupled receptors, including the human N-formyl peptide receptor.

Abstract
Interleukin-8 (IL-8) is a member of a family of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Although the best characterized activities of IL-8 include the chemoattraction and activation of neutrophils, other members of this family have a wide range of specific actions including the chemotaxis and activation of monocytes, the selective chemotaxis of memory T cells, the inhibition of hematopoietic stem cell proliferation, and the induction of neutrophil infiltration in vivo. A complementary DNA encoding the IL-8 receptor from human neutrophils has now been isolated. The amino acid sequence shows that the receptor is a member of the superfamily of receptors that couple to guanine nucleotide binding proteins (G proteins). The sequence is 29% identical to that of receptors for the other neutrophil chemoattractants, fMet-Leu-Phe and C5a. Mammalian cells transfected with the IL-8 receptor cDNA clone bind IL-8 with high affinity and respond specifically to IL-8 by transiently mobilizing calcium. The IL-8 receptor may be part of a subfamily of related G protein-coupled receptors that transduce signals for the IL-8 family of pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Abstract
In order to establish the species cross-reactivity of the human neutrophil attractant/activation protein-1 (interleukin-8, NAP-1/IL-8) and find which experimental species are responsive to the human cytokine, blood polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PNMLs) were isolated from chicken, dog, goat, guinea-pig, monkey, mouse, pig, rabbit, and rat and their in vitro migration in response to this cytokine was investigated. PMNLs from all of the tested species migrated in response to recombinant human NAP-1/IL-8 (rhNAP-1/IL-8). The potency of rhNAP-1/IL-8 for the PMNLs of different species varied and was considerably lower than its potency for human cells. The morphological study combined with the leukocyte enumeration in the intradermal rhNAP-1/IL-8 injection sites established an in vivo proinflammatory potency of rhNAP-1/IL-8 for rabbit and rat that was comparable to the observed in vitro chemotactic potency of rhNAP-1/IL-8 for neutrophils of these species.
