Recombinant human IFN-gamma was one of the first species-specific recombinant proteins to be thoroughly assessed in conventional safety models used for xenobiotics. Acute single-dose intravenous toxicity studies with rHuIFN-gamma were performed in rats, marmosets, and squirrel monkeys with no indications of toxicity. A complete series of subchronic toxicity studies and segment I and II reproductive studies in the rat revealed no evidence of toxicity at any of the doses tested. These results suggested that studies conducted in pharmacologically nonresponsive species may not be predictive of clinical toxicity. Human IFN-gamma is active on nonhuman primate cells, though not at the same level as on human cells. Multidose studies in cynomolgus monkeys with rHuIFN-gamma for 28 or 90 days were predictive of many of the dose-limiting clinical toxicities. Qualitative similarity was observed between toxicity studies employing rHuIFN-gamma in the cynomolgus monkey and rMuIFN-gamma in the mouse. The adverse effects seen in toxicity studies with cytokines and growth factors are often exaggerated pharmacological effects of the molecules, and therefore can only be studied in a responsive species. In situations in which a high degree of species specificity is encountered, studies employing a recombinant protein in a homologous species may provide a useful test system for preclinical safety assessment.</p>","PeriodicalId":75947,"journal":{"name":"International review of experimental pathology","volume":"34 Pt B ","pages":"73-101"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"19442160","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Receptor expression was found in the thymus and secondary lymphoid tissues. In the thymus, the p75 receptor was confined to medullary lymphoblasts and dendritic cells, which costain with the Tac protein of the interleukin-2 receptor. In lymph nodes and other secondary lymphoid tissues, the p75 receptor was expressed on activated lymphocytes and interdigitating reticulum cells of the T cell areas, whereas the p55 receptor was confined to the germinal center dendritic reticulum cells, which are the main site of TNF-alpha production. TNF receptor proteins were up-regulated in reactive hyperplasia together with increased TNF-alpha expression. Surprisingly, no TNF-R was detectable on nonlymphoid tissues. The species specificity of these TNF-antibodies was high: whereas the antibodies cross-reacted with epitopes in nonhuman primates, no immunoreactivity was detected in lower animal species, e.g., dog, rabbit, and rodents. The data presented suggest that TNF-alpha, which is produced by germinal center DRCs, might regulate an in vivo immune response through autocrine and paracrine pathways, e.g., through the p55 and p75 receptor proteins, which are expressed at different sites on the lymphoid tissue.</p>","PeriodicalId":75947,"journal":{"name":"International review of experimental pathology","volume":"34 Pt B ","pages":"149-56"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/b978-0-12-364935-5.50015-8","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"19370405","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
