CCAAT/Enhancer Binding Protein Is Critical for Effective
Neutrophil-Mediated Response to Inflammatory Challenge
Julie Lekstrom-Himes and
Kleanthis G. Xanthopoulos
From the Clinical Gene Therapy Branch, National Human Genome Research
Institute, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD.
Targeted mutation of CCAAT/enhancer binding protein
(C/EBP) in mice results in early death, primarily due to
spontaneous infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Functional
analysis of C/EBP -deficient neutrophils, in an in vivo model of
peritoneal inflammation, shows multiple defects. Reduction of
phagocytotic killing by C/EBP -deficient neutrophils is a result of
decreased uptake of opsonized bacteria as well as little to no
expression of secondary granule proteins. Abnormalities in neutrophil
migration detected in a chemical peritonitis model are likely secondary to abnormal CD11b integrin and L-selectin expression on
C/EBP -deficient neutrophils. Alterations in neutrophil cytokine
expression in response to inflammation show decreased levels of
interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) and increased levels of
tumor necrosis factor- (TNF- ) expression by C/EBP -deficient
neutrophils. Additionally, TNF- expression is increased in
nonactivated, circulating C/EBP -deficient neutrophils. Overall,
C/EBP -deficient neutrophils are severely functionally impaired,
evoking an abnormal microenvironment, which may contribute to the loss
of normal responses to inflammatory stimuli. Similarities between the
C/EBP -deficient mouse model and the human disease, specific granule
deficiency, will be discussed.
