title: Production of interleukin-1 and tumor necrosis factor by bone marrow-derived macrophages: effect of cisplatin and lipopolysaccharide.
abstract: Mature macrophages derived in vitro from bone marrow progenitors under the influence of either L929 CM (a source of M-CSF) or GM-CSF have been shown to differ morphologically and functionally. Treatment of these bone marrow-derived macrophages with cisplatin or LPS resulted in the expression of enhanced tumoricidal activity and the production of significant amounts of extracellular and membrane-associated IL-1 and TNF. rGM-CSF-derived bone marrow macrophages produced higher amounts of TNF and IL-1 activity than L929CM-derived macrophages. Untreated bone marrow-derived macrophages showed little IL-1 and TNF activity. Bone marrow macrophages cultured with medium alone also did not respond to cisplatin or LPS for the production of IL-1 and TNF. Neutralization studies with anti-IL-1 and anti-TNF antibodies inhibited the IL-1 and TNF activity of bone marrow-derived macrophages. These results suggest that cisplatin or LPS treatment of murine bone marrow-derived macrophages results in increased expression of both released and membrane-associated IL-1 and TNF.
