The β2GPI in the acute phase of the inflammatory response condition The β2-glycoprotein I (β2GPI) is an acute phase protein, produced mainly in the liver and intestine. The effects of this protein upon mononuclear cells were investigated both in monocytes from human peripheral blood, and in the human promonocytic cells from the ATCC THP-1 cell line. The correlations between its plasma concentration and systemic inflammation intensity were evaluated in humans and in ad experimental model of systemic infection in rats. No β2GPI effects were observed upon the oxidative response of blood monocytes during the phagocytosis of opsonized zymosan or S. aureus as analysed by luminol amplified chemiluminescence and flow cytometry. β2GPI enhanced the cellular viability and stimulated the differentiation of the promonocytes. The THP-1 cells treated with β2GPI presented increased adhesion to the plastic of cell culture plates as well as increased expression of CD54 and CD14 antigens. The supplementation with β2GPI was sufficient to support the proliferation of THP-1 cells in serum free culture conditions for 72 h. There were no correlations between the β2GPI plasma concentration and clinical parameters of the acute inflammatory response in septic patients. The β2GPI concentrations didn’t correlated with the plasma concentrations of IL-8, SAA and C reactive protein, despite these substances were found increased in the blood of patients with sepsis. The β2GPI plasma concentration response was a very early phenomenon in the experimental sepsis and bacterial translocation model. The β2GPI concentration decreased within the first 3h after endovenous sepsis induction, depending on the infection intensity. Very early compartment effects associated with the portal blood are suggested to mediate such regulation. The lowest β2GPI concentrations were found in the animals exposed to bacterial translocation through the intestinal mucosa, associated with a mild inflammatory condition. The lymph derivation completely prevented the plasma β2GPI decrease. Taken together, the results revealed the relevance of both the infection route and intensity to the control of plasma β2GPI concentrations during the acute phase response.
