- W1514973779 abstract "Macrophages have a marked capacity to invade tissue in the course of cellular immune reactions that is thought to be based on the action of urokinase (u-PA). u-PA is an ubiquitous serine protease that converts the zymogen plasminogen into the active protease plasmin. u-PA binds to specific receptors on the macrophage thereby enabling the cell to degrade interstitial tissue in the microenvironment. Two cytokines produced in the course of cellular immune reactions, IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha, increase the number of u-PA receptors on human cultured monocytes from 14,000 to 64,000 and 30,000 receptors/cell, respectively. We used an amnion invasion assay to investigate whether activated human monocytes exhibit an enhanced capacity to invade interstitial tissue in correlation to the increased numbers of u-PA receptors. We show in this study that IFN-gamma, which increases the number of endogenously occupied and saturable u-PA receptors, causes a threefold increase of monocyte invasion into amnion tissue in comparison to control cells. The anti-u-PA mAb MPW5UK, which blocks the activity of u-PA, inhibits monocyte invasiveness significantly. In contrast, TNF-alpha, which increases only the number of saturable u-PA receptors on monocytes, does not enhance their invasiveness. This finding suggests that only endogenously occupied u-PA receptors are instrumental in monocyte invasiveness. This conclusion is further supported by the findings that: 1) saturation of monocytes with u-PA does not further increase their invasiveness and that 2) plasminogen-activator inhibitor-2, a specific inhibitor of u-PA associated with endogenously occupied, but not of u-PA bound to saturable receptors, inhibits monocyte invasiveness completely." @default.
