BACKGROUND: Morphine possesses immunomodulatory effects but its intrinsic mechanisms, especially in the toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) signaling pathway, are only partially understood. In this study, we evaluated the effects of morphine on tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin-6 (lL-6), and interleukin-10 (IL-10) production in TLR2-stimulated human monocytes and identified the involvement of the different opioid receptors, and of the lymphocyte-to-monocyte contact. METHODS: Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from fresh blood by centrifugation on a density gradient. Monocytes were secondarily separated using a high-gradient magnetic cell sorting kit with specific anti-CD14 antibodies. Monocytes or PBMCs were pretreated with opioid receptors antagonists before being cultured with morphine and pepticloglycan (PGN) from Staphylococcits aureus (specific TLR2 agonist). The amount of TNF, IL-6, and IL-10 was measured in the supernatant enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS: Proinflammatory cytokines: Morphine significantly inhibited the production of cytokines in a dose and concentration-dependent manner in PGN-stimulated monocytes. mu Opioid receptor activation specifically mediated this morphine-induced TNF and IL-6 inhibition in monocytes. Morphine significantly inhibited the TNF, but not the IL-6 production, in PGN-stimulated PBMCs. The mu opioid receptor was not involved in this morphine-induced TNF inhibition in PBMCs. Antiinflammatory cytokines: IL-10 was not a factor for the inhibition of TNF and IL-6 production after PGN stimulation in either monocytes or PBMCs cultures. CONCLUSIONS: The mu opioid receptor mediates morphine-induced TNF and IL-6 inhibition in PGN-stimulated monocytes, but not in PBMCs. A direct monocyte-to-lymphocyte contact (PBMCs) alters the inhibitory effects of morphine observed on monocytes alone. IL-10 is not a factor for the inhibition of TNF or for IL-6 production. Interactions between TLR2 and mu opioid intracellular pathways remain to be studied to delineate these morphine immunosuppressive effects.
