1,2-benzopyrone has been shown to affect on the activation and stimulation of macrophage. To examine the immunostimulating effect of 1,2-benzopyrone on the phagocytic response of canine peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) as well as polymorphonuclear cells (PMN), the phagocytic activity of phagocytes was analyzed by flow cytometry system using FITC-labelled latex. The 1,2-benzopyrone did not show any direct effect on phagocytic response of PBMC and PMN. But it showed an enhanced effect on the phagocytic response of monocyte-rich cells fractioned by cell size from dot plot profile in flowcytometric cytography of PBMC. The phagocytic activity of these cells was also enhanced by addition of culture supernatant from PBMC treated with 1,2-benzopyrone. Similarly, the phagocytic activity of PMN but not PBMC in the same procedures was enhanced by culture supernatant from PBMC treated with 1,2-benzopyrone. However, the culture supernatant from PMN treated with 1.2-benzopyrone did not show the enhancing effect on phagocytic activity for monocyte-rich cells and PMN. These results, therefore, suggested that enhanced phagocytic activity of canine peripheral blood PMN and monocytes may be mainly mediated by humoral factor(S) released from PBMC treated with 1,2-benzopyrone.

The immunostimulating effects of egg white derivatives (EWD) on the phagocytic response of feline peripheral blood polymorphonuclear cells (PMN) as well as mono- nuclear cells (MNC) were examined. The phagocytic activity was analyzed by a flow cytometry system. The EWD showed directly an enhanced effect on the phagocytic response of MNC but not PMN. The phagocytic activity of MNC was enhanced by culture supernatant from MNC and PMN treated with EWD, respectively. Similarly, the phagocytic activity of PMN was enhanced by culture supernatant from MNC but not PMN treated with EWD. It was, therefore, indicated that the enhanced phagocytic activity of feline PMN could be mainly mediated by humoral factor(s) released from MNC treated with EWD. These results suggested that EWD could enhance the phagocytosis of feline peripheral blood phagocytes.

주정중독환자에서 초기 비특이적 면역력의 주된 반응인 백혈구 탐식작용을 이용하여 이들 환자들의 건강관리를 용이하게 할 수 있는지를 알아 보기위하여 백혈구 탐식 작용력을 측정하고자 실시하였고, 연구대상은 주정중독 의존형으로 진단된 남자 95명, 여자 3명과 대조군으로서는 건강한 헌혈자 32명을 대상으로 실시하였다. 또한 주정중독환자의 건강상태를 확인하기 위하여 백혈구수, 혈색소, 적혈구 평균용적, 혈청 단백질 전기영동, 림프구 아형 분리 및 림파구 유약화 시험도 실시하였따. 분석결과에서 혈색소와 적혈구 평균용적은 대조군에 비하여 신, 장기 입원 환자군에서 유의할만한 차이를 보였으며(P<0.05), 총 T와 B 림프구는 감소하였고, $T_{Helper}/T_{suppressor}$ 비율은 $1.6{\pm}0.8%$로 증가하였다. 특히 신, 장기입원 주정중독자의 Staphylococcus aureus Cowan I을 사용한 백혈구의 phagocytic plaque 형성력에서도 대조군에 비하여 현저하게 저하되었고, 이제까지 보고된 바 없는 특이한 strange body, 사슬상 탐식현상을 관찰 할 수 있었다. 따라서 Staphylococcus aureus Cowan I을 사용한 백혈구의 phagocytic plaque 형성 시험은 특별한 기구가 없이 간단하게 이용 가능하여 주정중독환자의 초기 면역력 측정에 매우 유용한 방법임을 알 수 있었다.

케타민은 N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) 수용체의 비경쟁적인 길항제로 인의와 수의학에서 전신 마취제로 사용하는 약물이다. 본 연구진은 이전에 케타민이 개 말초혈액 백혈구의 순간산소과소비현상(oxidative burst activity)을 손상시킨다고 보고하였다. 현재 연구에서는 개 말초혈액 탐식세포의 탐식능(phagocytic capacity)에 대한 케타민의 효과를 검토하였다. 탐식능은 유세포 분석기로 분석하였다. 말초혈액 다형핵백혈구(peripheral blood polymorphonuclear cells; PMN)와 단구(monocytes)의 탐식능은 케타민의 직접 처리에 의해 감소하였으나 단핵구세포(peripheral blood mononuclear cells; PBMC) 분획에서의 탐식능은 케타민의 직접 처리에 의해 변화가 없었다. 말초혈액 다형핵백혈구와 단구의 탐식능은 케타민을 처리한 단핵구세포 배양상층액에 의해서도 감소하였다. 이상의 결과로부터 케타민은 호중구와 단구와 같은 개 말초혈액 탐식세포의 탐식능에 있어 직접적인 억제효과를 나타내며, 또한 케타민 처리 단핵구세포로부터 생산되는 가용성인자에 의해서도 탐식세포의 탐식능이 억제되는 것으로 사료되었다.

The aim of this study is to determine the phagocytosis-promoting factor(s) for feline peripheral blood polymorphonuclear cells (PMN) by culture supernatant from mono-nuclear cells (MNC) treated with egg white derivatives (EWD). The phagocytic activity of PMN was analyzed by a flow cytometry system. The EWD did not show direct effect on the phagocytic response of PMN. The phagocytic activity of PMN was enhanced by culture supernatant from MNC but not PMN treated with EWD. Therefore, it was suggested that the enhanced phagocytic activity of feline PMN could be mediated by humoral factor(s) released from MNC treated with EWD. Thus, the phagocytosis-promoting factor(s) in supernatant fraction from MNC culture treated with EWD were isolated by reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatography. The resulting supernatant fraction on 29.02 minutes of retention time showed high phagocytic activity of PMN. The molecular weight of this supernatant fraction was 16 to 18 kDa when analyzed by capillary electrophoresis. The isoelectric point was pH 5.76 when assessed by ion-exchange chromatography. These results suggest that EWD stimulates feline MNC to elaborate a phagocytosis-promoting factor, 16 to 18 kDa of molecular weight, which could be an important mediator for the enhancement of phagocytic activity of feline peripheral blood phagocytes. Further study will be needed to elucidate this phagocytic factor.

치료목적으로 채취한 사람 복수에서 C반응성 단백질 (CRP)을 분리 정제하여 사람 대식세포 탐식활성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 연구하였다. CRP는 p-diazonium phenyl-phosphoryl choline 혹은 C-polysaccharide coupled sepharose 4B와 hydroxylapatite affinity chromatography법으로 분리 정제 시켰다. 대식 세포는 ficoll hypaque 밀도 원심 구배법으로 분리시킨 다음 부착법으로 정제시키고 탐식 시험을 이용하여 확인하였다. CRP가 대식 세포의 시험 관내 미생물 탐식 활성에 미치는 영향은 촉진 혹은 억제시키는 경향을 보였다. 즉, CRP와 대식세포 미생물 탐식능과의 관계는 반응시킨 시간, 반응계에 가해준 CRP량, 미생물ㆍ탐식세포 및 CRP상호간 반응시킨 순서에 따라서 다르게 나타났다. 대식세포의 시험관내 탐식활성에 미치는 CRP 자극의 특성은 한계자극 특성을 보였다.

Brucellosis is one of the common zoonoses caused by Brucella abortus (B. abortus). However, little has been reported on factors affecting invasion of B. abortus into host cells. To investigate cell-type dependent invasion of B. abortus, phagocytic RAW 264.7 and THP-1 cells and non-phagocytic HeLa cells were infected with wild-type and mutant B. abortus, and their invasion efficiencies were compared. The invasion efficiencies of the strains were cell-type dependent. Wild-type B. abortus invasion efficiency was greater in phagocytic cells than in epithelial cells. The results also indicated that there are different factors involved in the invasion of B. abortus into phagocytic cells.

Periodontitis is a bacteria-induced inflammatory disease associated with alveolar bone loss. Osteoclast is a macrophage-lineage cell that exhibits phagocytic activity; however, osteoclast phagocytic activity has not been demonstrated under pathological conditions. Diabetes is a pathological condition that exacerbates alveolar bone loss via periodontitis; therefore, we examined phagocytic osteoclasts in diabetic rats that had periodontitis. The rats were divided into the control (C), periodontitis (P), and diabetes with periodontitis (DP) groups. Diabetes and periodontitis were induced by streptozotocin injection and ligature of the mandibular first molars, respectively. On days 3 and 20 after the ligature, the rats were sacrificed, and osteoclasts containing inclusions were quantified by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining. On day 3, there were more osteoclasts containing inclusions in the DP group than in the C group. Among inclusions, osteocyte-like cells and dense bodies were more frequently observed in the DP group than in the C group. Cytoplasm-like structures were elevated more in the DP group than in the C and P groups. However, no differences were observed on day 20. Interestingly, some osteoclasts were in contact with the osteocytes within the exposed lacunae and contained several inclusions within a large vacuole. Thus, the elevation of phagocytic osteoclasts in rats with diabetes and periodontitis provides insight into the role of osteoclast phagocytic activity under pathological conditions.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the phagocytic uptake of surface modified PLGA microspheres containing ovalbumin (OVA) into dendritic cell. In order to find the most suitable formulation for targeted delivery to antigen presenting cells (APC), OVA was encapsulated by a double emulsion solvent evaporation method with three PLGA microspheres (PLGA 50:50, PLGA 75:25 and PLGA 85:15) and two surface modified microspheres by chitosan and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). Physicochemical properties were evaluated in terms of size, zeta potential, encapsulation efficiency, different scanning calorimeter (DSC), x-ray diffraction, morphology, and OVA release test from microspheres. Phagocytic activity was estimated using dendritic cells and analyzed by fluorescence activated cell sorter (FACS). The result showed that zeta potential of PLGA particles was changed to positive by the chitosan modification. The release profile of chitosan modified PLGA microspheres exhibited sustained release after initial burst. The chitosan modified microspheres had higher phagocytic uptake than the other microspheres. Such physicochemical properties and phagocytic uptake studies lead us to conclude that chitosan modified microspheres is more suitable formulation for the targeted delivery of antigens to APC compared with the other microspheres.
