In the present study, we investigate whether mast cells and macrophages are involved in the control of IL-1β-induced neutrophil migration, as well as the participation of chemotactic mediators. IL-1β induced a dose-dependent neutrophil migration to the peritoneal cavity of rats which depends on LTB 4, PAF and cytokines, since the animal treatment with inhibitors of these mediators (MK 886, PCA 4248 and dexamethasone respectively) inhibited IL-1β-induced neutrophil migration. The neutrophil migration induced by IL-1β is dependent on mast cells and macrophages, since depletion of mast cells reduced the process whereas the increase of macrophage population enhanced the migration. Moreover, mast cells or macrophages stimulated with IL-1β released a neutrophil chemotactic factor, which mimicked the neutrophil migration induced by IL-1β. The chemotactic activity of the supernatant of IL-1β-stimulated macrophages is due to the presence of LTB4, since MK 886 inhibited its release. Moreover, the chemotactic activity of IL-1β-stimulated mast cells supernatant is due to the presence of IL-1β and TNF-α, since antibodies against these cytokines inhibited its activity. Furthermore, significant amounts of these cytokines were detected in the supernatant. In conclusion, our results suggest that neutrophil migration induced by IL-1β depends upon LTB4 released by macrophages and upon IL-1β and TNFα released by mast cells. © 2007 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.

The new europium binuclear complex [Eu2(dcpz) 2(suc)(H2O)8]·(H2O) 1.5 (dcpz = 3,5-dicarboxypyrazolate and suc = succinate) has been synthesized and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The binuclear complex crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1̄ and consists of two lanthanide ions linked by two different bridging organic ligands. 3D supramolecular framework is constructed by hydrogen bonds. The compound shows strong red emission under UV excitation at room temperature associated to IL transitions indicating a ligand to metal energy transfer mechanism since the triplet energy level lies higher than that of europium 5D0 level. Magnetic susceptibility studies showed weak temperature dependence characteristic of the Van Vleck paramagnetism. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
