Tumor necrosis factor-+/-(TNF-+/-) and interleukin-1+/-(IL-1+/-) are major mediators of sepsis and multiple organ failure. Serum-mediated macrophage activation requires lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and its serum binding protein, lipopolysaccharide binding protein as a ligand for the receptor CD14. This study was designed to determine whether cytokines participate in regulation of serum-mediated LPS activation. Rat macrophages were stimulated with LPS with and without TNF-+/-or IL-1+/-and activation was determined by detection of TNF-+/-by specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay or TNF-+/-mRNA by Northern blot analysis. The addition of TNF-+/-but not IL-1+/-, in the presence of serum, leads to potentiation of macrophage activation after LPS stimulation. This effect could be specifically inhibited by neutralization of LPS with polymyxin B or an antibody against TNF-+/-. This study shows that LPS and TNF-+/-synergize to potentiate serum-mediated macrophage activation. These results demonstrate another element of the control mechanism of cytokine secretion following macrophage activation in sepsis.
