Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Adhesion of monocytes to the endothelium is an initial step in the early stages of atherosclerosis and inflammation. Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) stimulates a range of functional activities of monocytes, including regulation of monocyte adhesion and induction of cytokine production. We investigated in this study whether CM-CSF synthesis was induced by the direct cell-to-cell interaction between human monocytes and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (ECs). METHODS AND RESULTS:The expressions of GM-CSF mRNA and protein were analyzed by Northern blotting and ELISA, respectively. Coculture of monocytes and ECs induced the high levels of GM-CSF mRNA expression, whereas culture of ECs or monocytes alone or coculture of neutrophils with ECs induced no GM-CSF mRNA expression. A large amount of GM-CSF was secreted into the supernatant upon coculture of monocytes with ECs. The supernatant from the coculture markedly stimulated 02- release in neutrophils, and this effect was significantly inhibited by anti-GM-CSF antibody (Ab). Immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization revealed that GM-CSF protein and mRNA were clearly detectable in both ECs and monocytes adhered to ECs but not in nonadherent monocytes. The GM-CSF production by the coculture was markedly inhibited by genistein and partially inhibited by Abs against interleukin-1 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha. CONCLUSIONS:The present results indicate that GM-CSF is produced by direct interaction between monocytes and ECs and suggest that GM-CSF produced locally by monocyte-EC adhesive interaction plays an important role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and inflammation by modulating monocyte/macrophage functions in vivo.
