Resumen:
TGF-beta is a pleiotropic cytokine with both stimulatory and inhibitory effects on immune cells, depending on the microenvironmental context. It targets mast cells (MCs) in different physio-pathological conditions, such as inflammation and cancer. Besides acting as a potent chemoattractant for MCs, TGF-beta regulates many other aspects of MCs' physiology, including the secretion of many regulatory molecules. MCs secrete a variety of mediators, either pre-formed or newly synthesized, upon appropriate stimulation. CCL-2 chemokine and TNF cytokine act as potent chemoattractants for several immune cells and participate in the initiation of inflammatory responses by recruiting them to injured tissues. TGF-beta regulates CCL-2 and TNF secretion in different cell types and under distinct cellular contexts. Here, we report that the treatment with TGF-beta alone induces the secretion of both pre-formed and newly synthesized CCL-2 in the rat RBL-2H3 mast cells but not in mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs). TGF-beta-induced CCL-2 secretion depends on rapid rearrangements of the actin cytoskeleton and, remarkably, on the early secretion of soluble TNF that triggers an autocrine TNF signaling. In conclusion, we found cooperation between TGF-beta and TNF signaling pathways to promote the secretion of CCL-2 chemokine by MCs in a cell-context specific manner.
