TNF and IFN-gamma are thought to be involved in the immune response to mycobacterial infection because they exhibit antimycobacterial effects in vitro. To investigate the roles of these cytokines in vivo at the site of disease activity in human tuberculosis, we evaluated local cytokine production in patients with tuberculous pleuritis. Both TNF and IFN-gamma were selectively concentrated 5- to 30-fold in pleural fluid, compared to blood of the same patients. Messenger RNA for both cytokines was detected in pleural tissue by in situ hybridization, suggesting that selective cytokine concentration is due to local cytokine production. Two Mycobacterium tuberculosis cell wall components, the protein-peptidoglycan complex and lipoarabinomannan, caused dose-dependent release of TNF by pleural fluid mononuclear cells and may constitute the stimuli for TNF production in the pleural space. In contrast to results obtained for TNF release, the protein- peptidoglycan complex, but not lipoarabinomannan, stimulated IFN-gamma release by pleural fluid mononuclear cells. The clinical manifestations of tuberculous pleuritis, such as fever, exudative pleural effusion, and tissue necrosis, may be due to the effects of elevated local TNF concentrations, produced in response to mycobacterial cell wall components.
