Candida albicans stress mannoprotein, SMP200, enhances tumour necrosis factor secretion in the murine macrophage cell line ANA-I
1996
Tumour necrosis factor (TNF) secretory activity has been studied in the murine macrophage cell line ANA-1 following in vitro exposure to Candida albicans 200 kDa stress mannoprotein (SMP200). Treatment of ANA-1 murine macrophages with 200 kDa stress mannoprotein results in increased TNF secretion. The phenomenon is (i) dose- and time-dependent, (ii) abrogated by 200 kDa stress mannoprotein preincubation with a specific monoclonal antibody, and (iii) dependent on intact murine macrophage Ca2+/lmodulin-dependent protein kinase function.
