Apoptosis in phagocytotic cells of lymphoid tissues in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) following administration of clodronate liposomes.

Macrophage function has been studied in vivo by using liposomes that contain dichloromethylene-bisphosphonate (clodronate liposomes) to deplete macrophage subpopulations. In the present study, the effects of intravenously injected clodronate liposomes on the head kidney and spleen of the rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) were studied from 1 h to 7 days after injection. The rapid trapping of liposomes in the splenic ellipsoids was followed by depletion of ellipsoidal sheath macrophages and accumulation of particulate material and IgM in the ellipsoidal wall, findings illustrating the importance of ellipsoidal macrophages in the clearance of filtered substances trapped in the reticular matrix of the ellipsoidal wall. A reduced reactivity for acid phosphatase in the spleen and ultrastructural evidence of cell death in phagocytotic cells of the head kidney and spleen supported the selective effect of clodronate liposomes on macrophages in rainbow trout. Apoptotic bodies were prominent ultrastructural features in tissues collected from clodronate-liposome-treated rainbow trout. The increased presence of apoptotic cells in clodronate-liposome-treated trout compared with trout given liposomes containing phosphate-buffered saline was confirmed by using terminal deoxynucleotidyl-transferase-mediated deoxyuridine-triphosphate nick-end-labelling of cells with extensive DNA fragmentation. The characterization of liposome-mediated macrophage depletion in fish provides a useful model for further investigation of piscine macrophage function.
