Abstract/OtherAbstract:
OBJECTIVE:: To determine the mechanisms involved in inflammatory responses against octacalcium phosphate (OCP) crystals in vivo METHODS:: OCP crystal-induced inflammation was monitored using a peritoneal model of inflammation in mice with different deficiencies affecting interleukin-1 (IL-1) secretion (IL-1α(-/-), IL-1β(-/-), ASC(-/-)and NLRP3-/- mice), or in mice pre-treated with IL-1 inhibitors (anakinra and anti-IL-1β). The production of IL-1α, IL-1β and myeloid-related protein 8 and myeloid-related protein 14 complexes (MRP8-MRP14) was determined by ELISA. Peritoneal neutrophil recruitment and cell viability were determined by flow cytometry. Depletion of mast cells or resident macrophages was performed by pre-treatment with compound 48/80 or clodronate liposomes, respectively. RESULTS:: OCP crystals induced peritoneal inflammation as demonstrated by neutrophil recruitment and up-modulation of IL-1α, IL-1β, and MRP8-MRP14, to levels comparable to monosodium urate monohydrate (MSU) crystals. This OCP crystal-induced inflammation was both IL-1α- and IL-1β-dependent as shown by the inhibitory effects of anakinra (IL-1Ra) and anti-IL-1β antibody treatment. Accordingly, OCP crystal stimulation resulted in milder inflammation in IL-1α(-/-) and IL-1β(-/-) mice. Interestingly, ASC(-/-) and NLRP3(-/-) mice did not show any alteration in their inflammatory status in response to OCP crystals. Depletion of the resident macrophage population resulted in a significant decrease in crystal-induced neutrophil infiltration and proinflammatory cytokine production in vivo, whereas mast cell depletion had no effect. Finally, we demonstrate that OCP crystals induce apoptosis/necrosis of peritoneal cells in vivo. CONCLUSION:: These data indicate that macrophages, rather than mast cells, are important for initiating and driving OCP crystal-induced inflammation. Additionally, OCP crystals induce IL-1 dependent peritoneal inflammation, without NLRP3 inflammasome requirement.
