Differential effect of surfactant and its saturated phosphatidylcholines on human blood macrophages
) invading the alveolus encounter pulmonary surfactant, a phospholipoprotein complex changing composition during lung development. We tested the hypothesis that characteristic phosphatidylcholine components differentially influence M
phenotype and function, as determined by phagocytosis of green-fluorescent-protein (gfp)-labelled Escherichia coli and
CD3 induced T cell proliferation. Human M
were exposed to surfactant (Curosurf), two of its characteristic phosphadidylcholine (PC)-components (dipalmitoyl-PC, palmitoylmyristoyl-PC), and an ubiquituous PC (palmitoyloleoyl-PC) as control. Interaction of Curosurf and PC species with M
was assessed using Lissamine-dilauroyl-phosphoethanolamie labelled liposomes. Curosurf and both saturated surfactant PC species down-regulated CD14 expression and up-regulated CD206. HLA-DR and CD80 were up-regulated by Curosurf and palmitoylmyristoyl-PC, while dipalmitoyl-PC showed no effect. The latter up-regulated TLR2 and TLR4-expression, while Curosurf and palmitoylmyristoyl-PC had no effect. PC species tested were incorporated in comparable amounts by M
. Curosurf and PC species inhibited phagocytosis of Escherichia coli. Scavenger receptors (CD36, CD68, SR-A and LOX-1) mRNA-expression was up-regulated by Curosurf, while PC species only up-regulated SR-A. Curosurf and palmitoylmyristoyl-PC inhibited
CD3-induced T cell proliferation by 50% while dipalmitoyl-PC and palmitoyloleoyl-PC showed no effect. These data identify individual surfactant PC species as modifiers of MF differentiation and suggest differential effects on innate and adaptive immune functions.
