3 Fig. 1 Effects of preincubation of neutrophils in monocyte culture supernatant (MS) on PMN-CL. Purified monocytes from normal controls (n=10) were cultured. Supernatants were harvested 6hr after addition of LPS. FMLP induced PMN-CL was assayed after incubation of neutrophils for 15min in the resultant supernatant. NC: control medium, LPS (-): MS without adding LPS, LPS (+): MS with adding LPS. Fig. 2 In vitro effects of dexamethasone treated monocyte supernatant (MS) on PMN-CL. Purified monocytes from normal controls (n=3) were incubated for 24hr in medium with or without dexamethasone (licg/ml) prior to exposure to LPS for 6hr. Supernatants were harveted and assayed. cont: control medium, dex (-): MS without adding dexamethasone, dex (+): MS with adding dexamethasone.

4 Fig. 3 Effects of preincubation of neutrophils in T lymphocyte culture supernatant (TS) on PMN- CL. Purified T lymphocytes from normal controls (n=3) were cultrued for 24hr after addition of PHA in medium with or without dexamethasone (1ug/ml). cont: control medium, dex (-): TS without dexamethasone, dex(+): TS with dexamethasone. Fig. 4 Effects of preincubation of neutrophils in recombinant human (rh) TNF or rhil-1Ĉ on PMN-CL. FMLP-induced PMN-CL was assyed after incubation of neutrophils for 15min in rhtnf or rhil-1.

Immunol., 5: , A Study of Enhancing Effects of Monocyte Culture Supernatant on Polymorphonuclear Neutrophils-Chemiluminescence Comparison between Normal Controls and Collagen Disease Patients Yoshinori SHIMATSU, Kenichi IKARASHI, Masaaki NAKANO, Koichi WADA, Masatoshi NIWAYAMA & Masaaki ARAKAWA Department of Medicine (II), Niigata University Medical School, Niigata, Japan Priming effect of monocyte culture supernatant on polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN)- chemiluminescence (CL) was studied in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (n=11) and mixed connective tissue disease (n=4). In normal controls, N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-penylalanine (FMLP) induced PMN-CL was enhanced when PMN were previously incubated for 15 minutes with monocyte culture supernatant (MS) or T lymphocyte culture supernatant (TS) or T lymphocyte culture supernatant (TS). The enhancing effect of MS on PMN-CL was greater than that of TS. This enhancing effect of MS was inhibited by adding of dexamethasone (1ug/ml) during the culture. Recombinant human TNF also enhanced PMN-CL as well as MS. When compared the enhancing effects of MS between patients and normal controls, that of patients under corticosteroid therapy (average predonisolone dose 39.5 mg/day) was reduced significantly. Thus, we concluded that the cytokines from monocyte contributed PMN phagocytosis of invading microorganisms, and that this monocyte-mediated PMN phagocytosis was suppressed partly by corticosteroids in collagen disease.
