| Popis: | Soluble form of the urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) is markedly increased in biological fluids during different inflammatory conditions. It has previously been observed that the highest suPAR concentrations in inflammatory exudates tend to be associated with the presence of high number of neutrophils. Guided by this observation and our recent finding that activated neutrophils release suPAR we investigated whether neutrophils can be a source of suPAR during the inflammatory response in vivo. To address this question we conducted the comparative analysis of neutrophils isolated from the paired samples of synovial fluid (SF) and peripheral blood (PB) of rheumatoid arthritis patients. Freshly isolated SF neutrophils released significantly (p < 0.01) higher amounts of suPAR compared with PB neutrophils. We demonstrated that neutrophils from both sources release predominantly the truncated D2D3 form of suPAR. Migration of formyl peptide receptor-like 1 (FPRL1)-transfected human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293 cells toward the supernatants harvested from in vitro cultured SF neutrophils was significantly diminished when D2D3 form of suPAR was immunodepleted from the supernatants. Taken together, these data demonstrate that neutrophils, first, contribute to or are responsible for the generation of the increased suPAR levels during the inflammatory response and, second, release the chemotactically active form of suPAR that might be involved in the recruitment of formyl peptide receptors-expressing leukocytes into the inflamed tissues. |
