The clinicopathological features of malignant cells are sometimes modified by autologous cytokine production. Inflammatory fibrous histiocytoma (IFH) is characterised by leukocyte infiltration and is a variant of malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH). We demonstrated that three MFH cell lines (MF-1, MF-3, and MF-4) have the potential to promote neutrophil chemotaxis and to express mRNA for the cytokines, granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and/or interleukin 8/neutrophil attractant/activation protein 1 (IL-8/NAP-1), both with and without interleukin 1 beta (IL-1 beta) stimulation. MF-1 cells showed the spontaneous production of neutrophil chemotactic activity and the expression of both of GM-CSF and IL-8/NAP-1 mRNA, which was enhanced by exogenous IL-1 beta. In contrast, MF-3 cells showed the expression of GM-CSF and IL-8/NAP-1 mRNA with IL-1 beta stimulation but not without it, and MF-4 cells expressed only IL-8/NAP-1 mRNA when stimulated with IL-1 beta (time- and dose-dependent expression). These findings suggest that neutrophil chemotactic cytokines derived from IFH cells might be responsible for the prominent infiltration of neutrophils in this disease.
