This work characterizes macrophage morphological features during initiation and resolution of an inflammatory response by the bovine mammary gland. The study has been carried out in 20 mammary glands of five virgin heifers by using light microscopy of natural and stained cells and by using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The inflammatory reaction was induced by an intramammary administration of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). It has been found that both the initial as well as the resolution phases of the inflammatory reaction are characteristic of the presence of various morphologically different macrophage forms. During the initial phase of the inflammatory response, the major proportion of the macrophage population consisted of monocyte-like macrophages, which represented newly migrated cells. These macrophages were 12-15 mum in size, with spherical or ovoidal shapes, and contained homogenous, fine-granular cytoplasm rich in Golgi complexes, numerous mitochondria, and no lysosomes. The nuclei of the macrophages were kidney-shaped, and surrounded by dark chromatin along the peripheries. Macrophages with phagocytosed apoptotic neutrophils in the cytoplasm were detected already during the initial phase. These macrophages reached the highest proportion 48-72 h after the influx induction and participated in the resolution of the inflammatory reaction. Other cells, also detected during the resolution of the inflammatory reaction, were vacuolized macrophages that formed the largest cells in the lavages of the mammary glands and that were structurally characteristic for the presence of vacuoles in the cytoplasm. In TEM the macrophage vacuoles formed both phagolysosomes with residues of pre-digested material of phagocytosed apoptotic neutrophils and vacuoles that were less electon-dense. Morphologically different forms of macrophages reflected their real-time functions in the inflammation process. 相似文献

Abstract Channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus were acclimated for 35 d at 21°C, 15°C, and 9°C. Fish were injected 3 mm beneath the skin surface with 15 μL of turpentine, and inflamed skin and muscle samples were excised after 48 and 72 h for ultrastructural examination. Neutrophils, lymphocytes, and macrophages were present in the inflamed tissues at all times and temperatures; eosinophils and basophils were not found. Neutrophils were identified by their oval-to-elongate granules with a striated or crystalline core, heavy deposits of glycogen, longitudinal cristae of the mitochondria, and eccentrically located nuclei. Macrophages were distinguished by their numerous pseudopodia, vacuoles, lysosomes, and rough endoplasmic reticulum. Lymphocytes were distinguished by their chromatin-dense nucleus, numerous free ribosomes, and small volume of cytoplasm. Neutrophils were the most common inflammatory cell present, and there were no apparent differences in relative abundance within the inflammatory foci of fish acclimated to the three temperatures. Compared with neutrophils in peripheral blood, neutrophils in inflamed tissues had comparatively rare, swollen mitochondria, and cytoplasmic tubules were not observed. A few neutrophils had vacuoles, phagosomes, or pseudopodia. Lymphocytes in inflamed foci did not contain a Golgi apparatus, granules, vacuoles, or vesicles and had less cytoplasm than did lymphocytes in peripheral blood. Macrophages were the rarest type of inflammatory cell within inflamed areas and differed from peripheral blood monocytes in that macrophages contained numerous lysosomes and vacuoles. No structural differences were associated with particular temperatures for any type of leukocyte. 相似文献

Eleven 6-month-old calves were tsetse fly challenged with a stock of Trypanosoma vivax (IL 2337) that causes hemorrhagic infection. The calves were randomly euthanatized every 4 to 6 days; two other calves served as controls. Peripheral blood changes included anemia, thrombocytopenia, and an initial leukopenia. Later in the course of infection, leukocytosis associated with lymphocytosis and neutropenia developed. Moderate reticulocytosis (highest mean count 3.6 +/- 3.7%, maximum count 9.4%) accompanied the first wave of parasitemia, but poor response (highest mean 0.4 +/- 0.0%) occurred during the second wave, despite the persistence of severe anemia. Light microscopic examination of bone marrow samples showed a drop in the myeloid: erythroid ratio with a decrease in granulocytes, particularly metamyelocytes, bands, and segmenters. Increase in lymphocyte counts corresponded with the appearance of lymphoid nodules within the marrow. Megakaryocytic volume increased significantly in infected animals, and some megakaryocytes showed emperipolesis of red cells, neutrophils, and lymphocytes. Transmission electron microscopic examination of the bone marrow revealed that trypanosomes had crossed the sinusoidal endothelium into the hematopoietic compartment as early as the second day of parasitemia. Macrophages proliferated in the bone marrow; and from the second day of parasitemia until the end of the experimental infection, on day 46, the macrophages had phagocytosed normoblasts, eosinophil and neutrophil myelocytes, metamyelocytes, bands, and segmenters, as well as reticulocytes, erythrocytes, and thrombocytes. Therefore, dyserythropoiesis and dysgranulocytopoiesis were responsible, in part, for the observed anemia and granulocytopenia, respectively. 相似文献

To evaluate the relationship between pneumonic lesions and distribution of bacteria, lungs from calves inoculated with Pasteurella multocida were examined histologically by use of immunoperoxidase technique. Pneumonic lesions fundamentally consisted of broncho-pneumonia with fibrinopurulent pleuritis. The lesions were confirmed to be associated with inoculated P multocida, using the immunoperoxidase technique. The P multocida antigen was detected not only in the bacterial clusters in the lesions, but also in the cytoplasm of infiltrating neutrophils and macrophages. Further, immunoelectron microscopy indicated that the inoculated bacteria generally were phagocytosed and digested by neutrophils. 相似文献

A 1-year-old neutered male domestic shorthair cat had an ulcerated, proliferative lesion in the submandibular area that did not respond to antibiotic therapy. Impression smears from the mass revealed septic pyogranulomatous inflammation, with large numbers of pleomorphic bacteria observed intracellularly within macrophages as well as neutrophils. Bacterial culture was consistent with a diagnosis of Rhodococcus equi, a facultative intracellular coccobacillus capable of replicating within macrophages. The cat's lesion resolved after treatment with rifampin and clarithromycin. R equi should be considered as a differential diagnosis when coccobacilli are recognized within macrophages in cytologic samples. 相似文献

Mastitis, the inflammation of the mammary gland, is an important disease affecting dairy animals worldwide. The disease is caused by mammary pathogenic bacteria and Escherichia coli are frequently implicated. Virulence factors of mammary pathogenic E. coli are only partially known and intramammary challenge with LPS elicits neutrophil recruitment in experimental bovine and murine mastitis models. We have previously shown that neutrophil recruitment in LPS-induced murine mastitis is strictly dependent on mammary alveolar macrophages. However, the relative role of alveolar macrophages and blood neutrophils in E. coli mastitis is not well defined. To this end, we selectively depleted mammary alveolar macrophages or blood neutrophils before intramammary challenge with E. coli strain P4 (ECP4). Mice depleted of alveolar macrophages prior to intramammary challenge recruited neutrophils normally and restricted bacterial growth and interstitial invasion. Importantly however, upon depletion of alveolar macrophages, ECP4 invaded the mammary alveolar epithelial cells and formed intracellular bacterial communities. In contrast, neutrophil depletion prior to intramammary infection with ECP4 was associated with unrestricted bacterial growth, tissue damage, severe sepsis and mortality. This study suggests that neutrophils but not alveolar macrophages provide essential antimicrobial defense against mammary pathogenic E. coli. Furthermore, we show here similar invasion after depletion of alveolar macrophages as in our previous studies showing that LPS/TLR4 signaling on alveolar macrophages abrogates ECP4 invasion of the mammary epithelium. Interestingly, similar ECP4 invasion and formation of intracellular communities were also observed following intramammary infection of either iNOS gene-deficient or IL-1 receptor type 1 gene-deficient mice. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine whether neutrophil apoptosis and their consequent elimination by macrophages from the mammary gland is modulated by an infection caused by Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). The study was performed on twenty mammary glands of 5 virgin heifers. A buffered physiological solution (PBS) was administered as a means of control into the mammary glands of the heifers and after 168 h, the glands were inoculated with S. aureus. The samples of cell populations were obtained by lavages of the mammary glands in 4 intervals (24, 48, 72 and 168 h) after the experimental infection. Flow cytometry was used for determination of Annexin-V positivity and propidium iodide (PI) negativity of neutrophils. Light microscopy was used for determination of neutrophil karyopyknosis. Cytochemistry was used for the detection of myeloperoxidase-positive (MPO+) macrophages. Instillation of S. aureus resulted in an intramammary infection which persisted during the following experimental period. The total number of both Annexin-V-positive and PI negative neutrophils and karyopyknotic neutrophils peaked at 24 h after both of PBS and S. aureus administration. The highest percentages of Annexin-V-positive and PI negative neutrophils and karyopyknotic neutrophils were detected 48 and 168 h after PBS and S. aureus administration, respectively. The total number of MPO+ macrophages was the highest 24 h and 48 h after PBS and S. aureus administration, respectively; the percentage of MPO+ macrophages was the highest at 72 h in both cases. The dynamics of resolution of mastitis caused by S. aureus was very similar to the resolution of inflammatory response of the mammary gland after PBS administration. Mechanisms of cell pathogen elimination as well as inflammation resolution were very intensively involved; nevertheless, the mammary gland infection persisted. An early inclusion of the mechanisms of an acute inflammatory resolution thus paradoxically led to chronic infection. 相似文献

Macrophages and neutrophils are important cellular components in the process of acute inflammation and its subsequent resolution, and evidence increasingly suggests that they play important functions during the resolution of chronic, adaptive inflammatory processes. Exacerbated neutrophil activity can be harmful to surrounding tissues; this is important in a range of diseases, including allergic asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in humans, and equine asthma (also known as recurrent airway obstruction (RAO). Tamoxifen (TX) is a non-steroidal estrogen receptor modulator with effects on cell growth and survival. Previous studies showed that TX treatment in horses with induced acute pulmonary inflammation promoted early apoptosis of blood and BALF neutrophils, reduction of BALF neutrophils, and improvement in animals’ clinical status. The aim of this study was to describe if TX induces in vitro efferocytosis of neutrophils by alveolar macrophages. Efferocytosis assay, myeloperoxidase (MPO) detection and translocation phosphatidylserine (PS) were performed on neutrophils isolated from peripheral blood samples from five healthy horses. In in vitro samples from heathy horses, TX treatment increases the phenomenon of efferocytosis of peripheral neutrophils by alveolar macrophages. Similar increases in supernatant MPO concentration and PS translocation were observed in TX-treated neutrophils, compared to control cells. In conclusion, these results confirm that tamoxifen has a direct effect on equine peripheral blood neutrophils, through stimulation of the engulfment of apoptotic neutrophils by alveolar macrophages. 相似文献

Bovine lung explants were used in a study designed to compare the pathogenic effects of Pasteurella haemolytica type 1, a nonpathogenic organism Neisseria subflava, or the crude leukotoxin of P. haemolytica on alveolar macrophages and lung parenchymal cells. Concentrated, purified peripheral blood neutrophil suspensions were added with the bacteria to some explants. Duplicate pairs of cultures from each treatment group were fixed at regular intervals up to 24 hours after seeding and morphological changes were assessed by light and electron microscopy. Pasteurella haemolytica caused deterioration of alveolar macrophages within one hour but did not affect parenchymal cells for more than 12 hours. Neisseria subflava did not affect alveolar macrophages initially, but caused an accelerated deterioration after four hours. After 24 hours, bacterial overgrowth caused similar deterioration of all cells in explants seeded with either bacterium. Alveolar macrophages phagocytosed large numbers of N. subflava but rarely ingested P. haemolytica. Added neutrophils did not have any discernible effect on any of the explants and did not potentiate bacterial effects. Addition of crude leukotoxin of P. haemolytica to the culture medium significantly accelerated alveolar macrophage deterioration without apparent effect on parenchymal cell survival. These results support the hypothesis that the severe tissue destruction of fulminant pneumonic pasteurellosis is not a direct result of bacterial infection. 相似文献

Pregnant heifers were infused intramammarily with ovalbumin in one quarter and killed S. uberis in another quarter. The animals were slaughtered at time intervals after infusion, and tissues were collected from different parts of the gland and from the local lymph nodes. Ovalbumin and bacteria reached the lymph nodes as early as 1 and 3 h after infusion respectively. Ovalbumin was also present in blood 5-10 min after infusion and in non-infused quarters. Both ovalbumin and bacteria were phagocytosed by the epithelium of the mammary gland. However, bacteria were seen in the tissues in small numbers at all stages after infusion. Larger numbers were phagocytosed by neutrophils in the lumen of ducts, 18 h after infusion. Phagocytosis of both ovalbumin and bacteria was not present in the connective tissue of the gland. The results indicate increased permeability of the preparturient gland to soluble proteins, but limited uptake of bacteria. Furthermore, a mechanism of transfer of antigens among quarters has been suggested. 相似文献

Biopsy material of the ileum and corresponding mesenteric lymph nodes from 10 naturally infected goats was studied. In ileum a loss of epithelial cells and infiltration of epitheloid cells, macrophages and a low number of lymphocytes, plasma cells and occasional eosinophils were seen. Ultrastructurally, the epithelial cells showed degenerative changes. Epitheloid cells were characterized by a large nucleus and a wide cytoplasm rich in free ribosomes.Macrophages had been fixed in the process of engulfing bacteria or contained bacteria in phagosomes and phagolysosomes. Large phagolysosomes were common. In macrophages with many or large phagolysosomes, few or no lysosomes were observed. Degenerative changes were seen in macrophages containing many bacteria. Degenerative changes of capillary endothelium were observed. The intercellular spaces were distended by oedema and contained cell debris.The mesenteric lymph nodes were infiltrated with epitheloid cells and macrophages. The ultrastructural picture of these cells was almost identical to that of the ileum.The differences between the changes found in naturally infected and experimentally infected animals are discussed. It is concluded that the mode of infection, the number of bacteria to which the animal is exposed and the intervals between events of exposure may play a role. 相似文献

The phagocytic and killing abilities of heifer mammary gland macrophages (M phi) and neutrophils were evaluated after exposure to recombinant bovine interferon-gamma (rBoIFN-gamma) stimulation in vitro. Macrophages or neutrophils were cultured for 2 h with 0, 10(2), 10(4) and 10(5) units rBoIFN-gamma/mL. Phagocytosis assays were performed by incubation with Staphylococcus aureus at a leukocyte:bacteria ratio of 1:10. After 45 min, cells were stained with acridine-orange and phagocytic and killing abilities were determined. Although rBoIFN-gamma had no effect on M phi phagocytic activity, neutrophil phagocytic activity after incubation in 10(4) units rBoIFN-gamma (41.62%) was significantly higher than 0 (25.24%) or 10(2) units rBoIFN-gamma (24.73%). Neutrophil and M Phi killing abilities were not affected by any dose of rBoIFN-gamma. Results suggested that rBoIFN-gamma promoted neutrophil phagocytic activity, but did not affect neutrophil killing or overall M phi function in vitro. 相似文献

Calves, 90 to 130 days old, were inoculated with bovine herpesvirus-1 (BHV-1) or parainfluenza-3 (PI-3) virus. Pulmonary lavage specimens obtained from calves before virus inoculation contained 98% alveolar macrophages (AM) and 1% neutrophils. Six days after inoculation, the mean percentage of neutrophils in lavage specimens had significantly increased to 7.9 +/- 6.0% in BHV-1-inoculated calves and to 18.3 +/- 9.9% in PI-3 virus-inoculated calves, reflecting viral-induced pulmonary inflammation that was confirmed histologically. Approximately 75% of AM obtained before virus inoculation had Fc surface receptors, and 60% had C3b receptors. Six days after inoculation, the percentage of AM with Fc and C3b receptors was significantly reduced to 69.7 +/- 8.6% and 27.1 +/- 19.8%, respectively, in BHV-1-inoculated calves and to 67.8 +/- 15.4% and 38.8 +/- 23.2%, respectively, in PI-3 virus-inoculated calves. Alveolar macrophages obtained after virus inoculation were significantly impaired in their ability to phagocytize opsonized Staphylococcus epidermidis, but were able to kill ingested bacteria. Alveolar macrophage dysfunctions caused by BHV-1 or PI-3 respiratory infection did not differ appreciably. 相似文献

This study was undertaken to investigate the time course of surface expression of CD14 on neutrophils and macrophages and to determine their association with resolution of inflammatory responses during Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus uberis experimental mastitis. Infections of the mammary gland induce a local immune response characterized by an increase in the total counts of CD14+ neutrophils and CD14+ macrophages particularly. On the other hand, resolution is accompanied by an increase in relative counts of CD14+ neutrophils, CD14+ vacuolized macrophages and apoptotic neutrophils. Following the immune reaction of mammary gland against Gram-negative/positive bacteria is very similar. Between the apoptotic and CD14+ neutrophils a high correlation was measured during the whole experimental period (S. aureus: r=0.64; S. uberis: r=0.61; P<0.05). Using anti-CD14 monoclonal antibodies in vitro suggested the involving of the CD14 surface receptor in recognition of apoptotic neutrophils by macrophages. 相似文献

The effects of Moraxella bovis on the morphologic features of purified bovine neutrophils and bovine corneal epithelial cells were examined, using transmission and scanning electron microscopy and light microscopy. Within 2 minutes after incubation of bovine neutrophils with living M bovis, electron microscopic cellular changes included vacuolation, swelling, and loss of microplicae. Most of the neutrophils were lysed by 10 minutes of incubation. Human neutrophils phagocytosed the M bovis and remained intact, even after 30 minutes of incubation with the bacteria. Living M bovis killed bovine corneal epithelial cells in vitro. Sterile filtrates prepared from 6-hour shaker cultures of M bovis also killed bovine corneal epithelial cells, but the cytotoxic activity was less than that produced by the living bacteria. Cellular changes were first observed in specimens collected 1 hour after corneal cell monolayers were inoculated with sterile culture filtrates. The changes in these cells included pit-like lesions on the cellular surface, cellular separation, and vacuolation. 相似文献

Generation of neutrophil chemoattractants by phagocytosing bovine mammary macrophages 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Macrophages from bovine mammary gland were cultured in vitro and the growth medium collected at intervals. Using an in vitro system in which neutrophils migrated under agarose, both chemotactic and chemokinetic activity for bovine neutrophils was detected in supernatants of macrophage cultures to which heat killed preopsonised Staphylococcus aureus had been added. The suspensions of killed bacteria were not themselves chemotactic for neutrophils and no chemotactic activity was present either in supernatants from unstimulated macrophage cultures or in sonicated macrophages. The chemotaxin(s) was generated within two hours of the addition of staphylococci to the cultures and was largely stable to heating at 56 degrees C for 45 minutes, although its activity was reduced by boiling for 15 minutes. Traces of proteolytic activity were also detected in some supernatants. Substantial proteolytic activity was found in lysates of neutrophils. Unlike chemotaxis, proteolytic activity was suppressed by addition of milk from early lactation and containing high natural levels of protease inhibitors. Proteolytic activity was destroyed by boiling for 15 minutes. 相似文献

The distribution of leukocytes in bovine bronchoalveolar lavage fluids was determined in 15 calves at various times after aerosol exposure to Pasteurella haemolytica. For comparison, 10 calves were exposed to aerosols of phosphate-buffered saline solution; 15 calves, to Staphylococcus epidermidis; and 10 calves, to Salmonella typhimurium endotoxin. At 10 minutes after inhalation exposure for each group, the predominant cell type was the macrophage. Macrophages remained the predominant cell type throughout each lavage interval for calves exposed to phosphate-buffered saline solution and Staph epidermidis. For calves exposed to P haemolytica, there was a decrease in the percentage of macrophages detectable by 30 minutes after exposure, with a corresponding increase in the percentage of neutrophils. Sixty minutes after the inhalation exposure to P haemolytica, the percentages of macrophages and neutrophils in the lavage fluid were equal. By 240 minutes after exposure to P haemolytica, greater than 90% of the cells in the lavage fluids was neutrophils. The increase in the percentage of neutrophils in lavage fluids from calves exposed to S typhimurium endotoxin was similar to that seen for the calves exposed to P haemolytica. 相似文献

The mechanisms of interaction between phagocytes and different bacteria that help resolve lung infections or contribute to lung pathology are poorly defined. Alveolar phagocytes (resident macrophages and recruited neutrophils) make a major contribution to innate immunity by mounting a respiratory burst that helps kill internalised bacteria. However, this ability may be altered during or after exposure to infection. This review considers the application and limitations of a variety of analytical methods for oxygen-dependent mechanisms of respiratory burst in phagocytes initiated by soluble and particulate activators. Particular reference is given to the study in vitro of phagocytes from healthy and diseased ruminants during either natural infection with Mycobacterium avium paratuberculosis or experimental infection with Pasteurella multocida or Mannheimia haemolytica. 相似文献

Bovine alveolar macrophages were cultured in vitro and challenged with suspensions of live and dead bacteria. These cells showed severe cytotoxic morphological changes and a low rate of phagocytosis after exposure to live Pasteurella haemolytica type I was readily phagocytosed and produced only mild cytotoxic changes. 相似文献

Acyloxyacyl hydrolase (AOAH) is a lysosomal enzyme found in neutrophils and macrophages that acts to partially deacylate the lipid-A component of the endotoxin of gram-negative bacteria rendering it less toxic, yet maintaining much of its immunostimulatory potential. We have found that the activity of neutrophil AOAH per cell increased during localized inflammation. The purpose of this study was to determine the mechanism(s) responsible for these increases in neutrophil AOAH activity. Because changes in neutrophil maturity commonly are associated with inflammation, intravascular infusion of purified gram-negative bacterial lipopolysaccharide and SC injection of bovine recombinant granulocyte colony-stimulating factor was used to induce large numbers of circulating immature neutrophils. Immature neutrophils were found to have AOAH activity equal to that of mature cells; however, when neutrophils were stimulated in vitro with known activators, AOAH activity of activated cells was more than that of unstimulated cells. The increase in AOAH activity was inversely related to prestimulation activity. Increases in AOAH activity after neutrophil activation were not a result of de novo synthesis of the enzyme, because cycloheximide did not prevent activation-induced increases in activity. 相似文献
