PG - 88-95 AB - A point mutation in Toll-like receptor 4 (Tlr4) gene in C3H/HeJ mice underlies a defect in LPS-induced cytokine production by peritoneal macrophages (PMphi;). Whether the C-C and the C-X-C chemokines are induced differently by LPS between alveolar macrophages (AMphi;) and PMphi; in this mice remains unclear. Thus, we examined the expression and regulation of macrophage inflammatory protein-1alpha (MIP-1alpha) and macrophage inflammatory protein-2 (MIP-2) in C3H/HeJ macrophages. These results showed that the accumulation of MIP-1alpha and MIP-2 mRNA increased dose dependently in response to LPS. PMphi; responded to LPS to produce significantly higher levels of both chemokine mRNA and protein than AMphi;. In addition, both macrophages produced much more MIP-2 than MIP-1alpha by the same doses of LPS stimulation. Moreover, the chemokine production by C3H/HeN macrophages was significantly higher than that of the C3H/HeJ macrophages. IFN-gamma suppressed the LPS-induced MIP-1alpha release but enhanced the LPS-induced MIP-2 secretion in both macrophages. These results show that the chemokine production was induced and regulated differentially in AMphi; and PMphi;. CI - Copyright 2000 Academic Press.
