Abstract Interleukin 6 (IL6) is a cytokine that regulates a number of important immune and inflammatory pathways. We used the ability of IL6 to inhibit the clonal proliferation of the mouse M1 myeloid leukemia cell line in agar to positively screen a cDNA expression library for proteins that inhibited IL6 activity. We found three clones completely resistant to IL6 that contained the cDNA for the Membrane-Associated RING-CH E3 ubiquitin ligase MARCH2. MARCH2 is a member of a family of membrane-bound E3 ubiquitin ligases that target cell surface receptors for degradation. MARCH2 overexpressing M1 clones retained responsiveness to the related cytokines leukemia inhibitory factor and oncostatin M and we showed that its inhibitory effect was a result of selective down-regulation of the IL6 receptor alpha chain and not the shared receptor subunit, gp130 or other signalling molecules. This activity of MARCH2 was also shared with related proteins MARCH4, MARCH9 and an isoform of MARCH3. The transmembrane domains and C-terminal domains, as well as a functional RING domain, of MARCH proteins were all required for substrate recognition and down-regulation. Genetic deletion of individual MARCH proteins in mice had no or little effect on IL6Rα levels but combined deletions of MARCH2,3 and 4 displayed elevated steady-state levels of IL6Rα in selected haemopoietic cell subsets including CD8+ and CD4+ T cells. These studies extend the potential immunosuppressive roles of MARCH proteins to include down-regulation of IL6 inflammatory responses.

Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) in the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)–deficient knee is seen in approximately 50% of affected patients. Possible causes include biochemical or biomechanical changes. Purpose: We sought to study the correlation between inflammatory cytokines and chondral damage in ACL-deficient knees. Methods: Seventy-six male patients who underwent ACL reconstruction were enrolled in a cross-sectional study. Synovial fluid was aspirated before surgery and analyzed for levels of the inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1 (IL-1), and interleukin-6 (IL-6). At the time of ACL reconstruction, the severity of chondral damage was documented as described by the Outerbridge classification. Results: Patients with grade 2 or higher chondral damage were observed to have elevated IL-6 levels when compared to patients who had no chondral damage. Interleukin-6 levels had no correlation with the duration of injury. Conclusion: Elevated levels of IL-6 in synovial fluid were associated with chondral damage in ACL-deficient knees. Further study is warranted to determine whether inflammatory cytokines contribute to the development of OA of the knee after ACL injury.

Background:Chronic non-bacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) is an immune-mediated disease associated with cytokine dysbalance.Objectives:The aim of our study was to evaluate the cytokines levels in CNO and compare to juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) – disease with immune-mediated mechanism.Methods:The diagnosis of CNO made with criteria, proposed by Jansson (2007, 2009), after the exclusion of other causes of bone disease [1]. We included 42 patients with NBO, 28 patients with non-systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). We evaluated plasma levels of 14-3-3 protein, S100A8/S100A9-protein, interleukine-6 (IL-6), interleukine-18 (IL-18), interleukine-4 (IL-4), interleukine-17 (IL-17), interleukine-1β (IL-1 β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα) in 2 groups by the ELISA. Statistical analysis was carried out with Statistica 10.0 software. We utilized descriptive statistics (Me; IQR), Mann-Whitney tests.Results:We have found differences in the proinflammatory biomarkers between CNO, JIA. Patients with NBO had lower levels of studied cytokines, exclude14-3-3-protein, S100A8/S100A9 and interleukin-6 compare to JIA patients (table 1).Table 1.Comparison the cytokine levels between CNO, JIA NParameterNBO (n=42)JIA (n=28)pHemoglobin, g/l112 (104; 124)120 (114.5; 126.0)0.02WBC x 109/l7.9 (7.0; 10.5)8.0 (6.7; 10.0)0.86PLT x 109/l347 (259; 408)336.5 (274.0; 390.5)0.98ESR. mm/h25.0 (9.0; 46.0)8.5 (2.5; 13.0)0.013CRP, mg/l6.1 (0.6; 2.4)1.8 (0.4; 11.9)0.02714-3-3, ng/ml21.4 (18.5; 27.1)19.9 (18.0; 27.8)0.77S100A8/S100A9, ng/ml5.9 (5.2; 6.5)5.9 (5.0; 6.2)0.76IL-6, ng/ml126,2 (112.8; 137.5)132.4 (117.4; 142.9)0.16IL-18, ng/ml270.1 (200.1; 316.1)388.3 (373.9; 405.1)0.0000001IL-4, ng/ml15.3 (11.5; 18.2)18.7 (16.2; 20.2)0.003IL-17, ng/ml83.1 (71.1; 97.3)99.2 (87.3; 115.8)0.003IL-1b, ng/ml47.4 (42.0; 51.3)70.8 (65.3; 73.6)0.0000001TNFa, ng/ml19.4 (17.8; 21.3)23.1 (20.2; 25.9)0.0006Conclusion:Patients with CNO had less proinflammatory activity then JIA patients, besides IL-6 and S100A8/S100A9.

Enthesitis Related Arthritis

Objective.A Th1 biased immune response in synovial fluid has been reported in children with polyarticular and extended oligoarticular-type juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). We investigated T cell phenotypes including Th1, Th2, Th17, and Treg with emphasis on Th17 and Treg, in order to differentiate cytokines in the enthesitis-related arthritis (ERA) form of JIA.Methods.The frequencies of Th1, Th2, Th17, and Treg cells were determined by flow cytometry in peripheral blood (PB) and synovial fluid from patients with ERA and healthy subjects. Levels of interleukin 1ß (IL-1ß), IL-6, IL-21, IL-23, and transforming growth factor ß (TGF-ß), cytokines that influence Th17 lineage cells, were measured in paired plasma and synovial fluid (SF) samples by ELISA. Frequencies are expressed as percentages and cytokine levels as pg/ml.Results.There were no differences in blood samples in the frequency of Th1, Th2, Th17, and Treg cells between patients and controls. In paired samples, the median frequency of CD4+IFN-γ+ (20.49 vs 4.03; p < 0.005) and CD4+IL-17+ (2.27 vs 0.57; p < 0.01) cells was significantly higher in SF compared to PB, respectively; whereas the frequency of CD4+IL-4+ (1.79 vs 2.29; p < 0.04) cells was significantly reduced in the SF compared to PB. There was no difference in the frequency of regulatory T cells. Patients receiving methotrexate had fewer Th2 cells, whereas the Childhood Health Assessment Questionnaire score had a negative association with the frequency of Treg. Median levels of IL-1ß (p < 0.008), IL-6 (p < 0.0001), and IL-17 (p < 0.0001) were higher in SF than in plasma and levels of TGF-ß were lower (p < 0.001). Levels of IL-21 were similar in SF and plasma, whereas IL-23 was undetectable.Conclusion.In patients with ERA, peripheral blood Th1, Th2, Th17, and Treg cells were unchanged, but Th1 and Th17 cells were increased and Th2 cells were reduced in the SF compared to blood. Elevated IL-1ß and IL-6 in SF may be responsible for increased Th17 cells.

Rapid Activation

AbstractActivation of the erythropoietin receptor (EpoR) after Epo binding is very transient because of the rapid activation of strong down-regulation mechanisms that quickly decrease Epo sensitivity of the cells. Among these down-regulation mechanisms, receptor internalization and degradation are probably the most efficient. Here, we show that the Epo receptor was rapidly ubiquitinated after ligand stimulation and that the C-terminal part of the Epo receptor was degraded by the proteasomes. Both ubiquitination and receptor degradation by the proteasomes occurred at the cell surface and required Janus kinase 2 (Jak2) activation. Moreover, Epo-EpoR complexes were rapidly internalized and targeted to the lysosomes for degradation. Neither Jak2 nor proteasome activities were required for internalization. In contrast, Jak2 activation was necessary for lysosome targeting of the Epo-EpoR complexes. Blocking Jak2 with the tyrphostin AG490 led to some recycling of internalized Epo-Epo receptor complexes to the cell surface. Thus, activated Epo receptors appear to be quickly degraded after ubiquitination by 2 proteolytic systems that proceed successively: the proteasomes remove part of the intracellular domain at the cell surface, and the lysosomes degrade the remaining part of the receptor-hormone complex. The efficiency of these processes probably explains the short duration of intracellular signaling activated by Epo.
