Interferon-inducible protein 10 (IP-10), monokine induced by interferon gamma (MIG), and interferon-inducible T cell alpha chemoattractant (I-TAC) are three known ligands for CXCR3 produced by normal and injured epithelial cells and T cells that are required for homing of Th1 cells [27,28,29].
To detect Th1 polarization, we assessed lung lymphocytes for expression of CCR5 (a receptor for several Th1 chemokines) and CXCR3 (the receptor for IP-10, I-TAC, and MIG).
Interestingly, we could not detect appreciable amounts of I-TAC, another known ligand for CXCR3, in lung lymphocytes of control participants or those with emphysema (data not shown).
Peripheral blood mononuclear cells and lung macrophages were isolated by positive selection using immunomagnetic beads conjugated with anti-CD14, and cultured in serum-free medium (RPMI, L-glutamine, and Pen/Strep) prior to overnight stimulation with 0, 50, 250, or 500 ng/ml of IFN-γ, IL-4, MIG, I-TAC, and IP-10.
For enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay studies, anti-human antibodies to IFN-γ, IL-4, IP-10, MIG, I-TAC, and the appropriate secondary reagents were purchased from R&D Systems (Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States).
