    Human mononuclear cells produce chemotactic factor for granulocytes (CFG) when stimulated by LPS or specific serum. Phagocytic mononuclear cells, not lymphocytes, are identified as the source of this crucial immune signaling molecule.

    Area of Science:

    • Immunology
    • Cell Biology

    Background:

    • Chemotactic factors are crucial for immune cell migration.
    • Human mononuclear cells play a key role in immune responses.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the production of chemotactic factor for granulocytes (CFG) by human mononuclear cells.
    • To identify the specific cell types responsible for CFG production.

    Main Methods:

    • Agarose plate method used to assess CFG production.
    • Mononuclear cells cultured in agarose wells with stimuli.
    • Chemotactic response of indicator granulocytes measured.

    Main Results:

    • CFG production observed in mononuclear cells stimulated with LPS or anti-beta 2 microglobulin serum.

  • No significant CFG production induced by PHA, Con A, PWM, or Sepharose-Protein A.
  • Dose-response relationship between CFG activity and phagocytic mononuclear cell number.
  • Conclusions:

    • Phagocytic mononuclear cells, likely monocytes, are the primary producers of CFG.
    • Lymphocytes do not appear to produce significant amounts of CFG.
    • CFG specifically attracts granulocytes, not monocytes.
