The oxidation of methionine residues in many
proteins, including the serine proteinase inhibitor
Activation of Primary Human Monocytes by the Oxidized Form of
1-Antitrypsin*
1-antitrypsin
(AAT), can result in functional inactivation. In this study we
investigated the pro-inflammatory properties of oxidized AAT (oxAAT),
specifically its ability to activate human monocytes in culture.
Monocytes stimulated with oxAAT at concentrations up to 0.2 mg/ml for
24 h showed significant elevation in monocyte chemoattractant
protein-1, cytokine interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor-
expression and increased NADPH oxidase activity. Monocytes activated
with oxAAT showed surprising effects on lipid metabolism. Expression of
low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptors increased by up to 76%
compared with controls but was not accompanied by any changes in
125I-labeled LDL binding and, paradoxically,
decreased LDL uptake, degradation, and intracellular cholesterol
synthesis. oxAAT also down-regulated the scavenger receptor CD36, which
takes up and is up-regulated by oxidized LDL and is down-regulated by
cholesterol efflux. As a by-product of oxidative events accompanying
inflammation, oxAAT has multiple effects on cytokine expression,
generation of reactive oxygen species, and on intracellular lipid
metabolism. The up-regulation of monocyte-derived reactive oxygen by
oxAAT could potentially result in self-amplification of AAT oxidation and, thereby, the other effects deriving from it. This implies that
there are as yet unidentified regulatory processes that control this cycle.
