in cartilage metabolism, we
analyzed their effects on tissue inhibitor of metalloproteases (TIMP)
synthesis by synoviocytes and chondrocytes. TIMP-1 production by
isolated human articular synovial fibroblasts and chondrocytes,
stimulated by IL-6 and/or its soluble receptor, was first assayed by
specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; the slight stimulatory
effect of IL-6 on TIMP-1 production by both types of cells was markedly amplified by the addition of soluble receptor, the maximal secretion being observed only at 96 h. TIMP-1 mRNA expression,
determined by ribonuclease protection assay, was induced by IL-6
together with its soluble receptor, but TIMP-2 and -3 mRNAs were
not affected by these factors. A specific neutralizing antibody
abolished the effects of the soluble receptor. Finally, supernatant
from synoviocytes stimulated by IL-6 plus its soluble receptor blocked
almost completely the collagenolytic activity of supernatant from
IL-1-induced synoviocytes. These observations indicate that IL-6 and
its soluble receptor have a protective role in the metabolism of
cartilage. Given the high levels of soluble receptor in synovial fluid
and the marked induction of IL-6 by IL-1 or TNF-
, it is likely that
IL-6 and its soluble receptor are critical in controlling the catabolic effects of pro-inflammatory cytokines.
