Production of and response to interleukin 1 by cloned human oligodendroglioma cell lines.
Clones and subclones of the human oligodendroglioma line TC620 were characterized with respect to surface and cytoplasmic markers as well as for ability to produce and respond to immunoregulators of inflammation such as products of arachidonic acid metabolism, interleukin 1(IL1) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF). Clone 1.0 and its subclone 1.3 both resembled immature oligodendroglia or precursor-type cells. Both clones were 100% positive for surface galactocerebroside (Gal C), though distinct with respect to predominance of surface gangliosides and lectin receptors. Both clones responded to IL1 beta and IL1b by proliferation and both constitutively released IL1 alpha. The parental line also produced some IL1 but did not proliferate in response to IL1. The IL1 alpha produced could be detected in supernatants as well as cell lysates of TC620 1.0 and 1.3. Neither clone produced prostaglandin E (PGE), leukotriene B4 (LTB4), or tumor necrosis factor (TNF) but IL1 alpha production by 1.3 could be influenced by exogenous PGE and TNF. Response to IL1 beta and IL1 alpha could be specifically inhibited by anti IL1 alpha or beta respectively. The clones also responded to autologous conditioned supernatants. This response was partially inhibited by anti IL1 alpha but not anti IL1 beta, indicating that the factor in the supernatant was IL1 alpha-like.
