The influence of peplomycin (PLM) on the respiratory burst of peripheral blood polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) was investigated. Short-term (5 min) treatment of human PMN with 0.1μg/ml to 100μg/ml of PLM increased phorbol myristate acetate (PMA)-and formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP)-induced luminol-dependent chemiluminescence. PMN, as well as alveolar macrophages from rabbits treated with 0.5 to 1.0 mg/kg of peplomycin per day for 5 days, generated more superoxide (O2-) than the cells from untreated rabbits. In both PLM-treated and untreated PMN, chemiluminescence induced by FMLP and PMA was decreased to less than 50% of the control by staurosporine, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase. However, the peak intensity in PLM-untrcated PMN was decreased to about 30% of the control by genislein, while this agent induced a slight decrease in peak intensity in the PLM-treated PMN. Inositol triphosphate and diacyl glycerol levels were not clearly increased by PLM, but an increase of intracellular Ca and a shift of protein kinase C (PKC) to the membrane occurred in PMN within 1 min after PLM treatment. Western blotting revealed that the tyrosine phosphorylation of a 115 kDa protein was upregulated by 5 to 50μg/ml of PLM. While, PLM suppressed SOD activity in alveolar macrophages and PMN. These results seem to indicate that PLM increases the respiratory burst of PMN and macrophages both by way of direct PKC activation and by the upregulation of protein tyrosine phosphorylation. This increased reactive oxygen generation, together with the suppression of SOD activity seems to be tissue-impairing. 相似文献

The anti-neutrophil mAb PMN 7C3 and IIC4 inhibited the respiratory burst of neutrophils as measured by the generation of superoxide anion or hydrogen peroxide in response to PMA, serum-treated zymosan, and FMLP. To examine the effect of these mAb on neutrophil transmembrane potential, a fluorescent probe was used in a continuous assay. Compared with control cells, antibody-treated neutrophils were partially depolarized at rest and had a blunted response when stimulated. The F(ab)2 fragment of PMN 7C3 had similar effects on both the respiratory burst and transmembrane potential, whereas the Fab fragment did not. The unrelated antineutrophil mAb 31D8 had no effect on either the respiratory burst or on transmembrane potential. Neutrophils suspended in high potassium buffers also exhibited partial depolarization of the resting cell membrane and a blunted depolarization response to stimuli and produced less superoxide anion and hydrogen peroxide in response to stimuli than did control cells in physiologic buffer. Exposure of neutrophils to 2-deoxy-D-glucose resulted in dose- and time-dependent depression of the respiratory burst. 2-Deoxy-D-glucose also caused depolarization of the resting membrane and impaired subsequent stimulus-induced depolarization. Similar effects were seen with addition of iodoacetamide or depletion of glucose. The parallel effects of anti-neutrophil mAb, depolarizing buffers, and glycolytic inhibitors on both neutrophil membrane depolarization and activation of the respiratory burst indicate a close association between these two events. The evidence suggests that the inhibitory effects of these antibodies are mediated through partial membrane depolarization which interferes with signal transduction on subsequent stimulation of the cells. The impairment in oxidative responses to phorbol esters as well as to receptor-dependent activating agents points to interruption at a distal step, e.g., subsequent to Ca2+ mobilization. 相似文献

Effect of lysophosphatidic acid on motility, polarisation and metabolic burst of human neutrophils 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Abstract The effect of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) on human neutrophil activation was examined by a combination of automated tracking assays, cell shape measurements and assays of the metabolic burst by means of 7-dimethylamino-naphthalene-1,2-dicarbonic acid hydrazide (DNDH)-dependent chemiluminescence. LPA powerfully stimulated polarisation and motility. Polarisation became detectable at 2 μM LPA and virtually 100% of cells were polarised at 20 μM LPA. Cell motility increased with the degree of polarisation, and was diminished at high LPA concentration, but this decrease was reversed by albumin. LPA also inhibited the metabolic burst response to both n -formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP) and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). Inhibition of the PMA-induced metabolic burst by LPA was not affected by pertussis toxin, showing that the effect was not mediated by the pertussis toxin-sensitive heterotrimeric G protein, and that inhibition of the PMA-stimulated metabolic burst by LPA could result from a direct action of LPA on the small cytosolic GTP-binding proteins. These results indicate that lysophosphatidic acid production by thrombin-activated platelets could play a significant role in the regulation of the inflammatory response. 相似文献

The fluoresceinated chemotactic factors, C5a, formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanyl-lysine (FMLPL), and casein were used in conjunction with flow cytometry to examine chemotactic factor receptor expression on polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) activated with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), C5a, or formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine. Activation with PMA resulted in a dose-dependent increase in binding of fluorescein-labeled (FL)-casein and (FL-FMLPL) over the range of PMA concentrations from 0.5 to 50 ng/ml. In contrast, activation of PMN with PMA resulted in a dose-dependent decrease in FL-C5a binding, and activation with concentrations above 5 ng/ml resulted in a complete loss of binding. This loss of binding was not caused by inactivation of the ligand or prevented by the addition of superoxide dismutase and catalase or protease inhibitors. Furthermore, incubation of PMN with supernatants from PMN stimulated to degranulate did not reduce the availability of C5a receptors. This pattern of increased FMLPL and casein binding with decreased C5a binding was also observed with cytochalasin B-pretreated PMN that were stimulated with chemotactic factors. Parallel studies of superoxide anion generation demonstrated that PMA-treated PMN were still responsive to formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine, but not to C5a. These data demonstrate that the activation of PMN up-regulates formyl peptide and casein receptors whereas C5a receptors are down-regulated under similar conditions. 相似文献

Treatment of human neutrophils (PMN) with a cytokine-like factor in the supernatants of human lymphoblastoid cells (Raji) increased the random mobility and enhanced the migration of treated cells in response to other chemoattractants nearly 21/2-fold, although the supernatant itself was not a chemoattractant. Supernatant treatment also increased the adherence of bacteria threefold and the bacterial killing fourfold compared with PMN treated with control media. In examining the metabolic basis for the enhanced bactericidal ability, we observed a significant increase in spontaneous hexose monophosphate shunt activity of Raji cell supernatant (RS)-treated neutrophils even in the absence of additional stimuli. RS-treated PMN also had significantly enhanced production of superoxide anion and chemiluminescence response upon subsequent stimulation with a variety of soluble and particulate stimuli. Unlike other agents that prime neutrophil activation, however, the factor(s) in RS did not cause degranulation. It also differed in its ability to progressively enhance PMN functions with a longer period of preincubation (up to 3 hr). These data suggest that the RS factor(s) primes neutrophils by a unique mechanism. The neutrophil-enhancing activities of RS, which are the opposite of those activities described for leukocyte inhibitory factor, eluted off a Sephacryl S-200 column at approximately 30,000 m.w. This factor expands the relationship between neutrophils and lymphocytes, and may be a useful agent to provide valuable insights into the mechanism of respiratory burst activation and regulation. 相似文献

The combined action of hyaluronic acid and fibronectin stimulates neutrophil migration 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Previous investigations have demonstrated that the chemotactic response of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) was stimulated by hyaluronic acid (HA) when serum was present. The aim of the present investigation was to identify the serum factor necessary for the stimulation of PMN chemotaxis by HA. By means of gel filtration, the m.w. of the serum component was shown to be greater than 350,000. Immunoprecipitation of serum with anti-fibronectin, but not with anti-IgM and anti-alpha 2-macroglobulin, inhibited the stimulation of PMN chemotaxis by HA. Preincubation of PMN with HA (10 to 500 micrograms/L) and isolated fibronectin (0.1 to 100 mg/L) significantly stimulated the chemotactic response of PMN. Also, random migration of PMN was significantly increased by preincubation of the cells with HA (10 to 500 micrograms/L) and isolated fibronectin (50 to 200 mg/L). Additionally, PMN preincubated with HA (10 to 50 micrograms/L) and with fibronectin (10 to 50 mg/L) added afterwards, and PMN preincubated with fibronectin (10 mg/L) and with HA (5 to 10 micrograms/L) added after the preincubation, showed a significant stimulation of the chemotactic response. PMN preincubated with serum and chondroitin sulfate, or with fibrinogen and HA, demonstrated no stimulation of the chemotactic response. The present investigation suggests that the combined action of HA and fibronectin, which probably takes place at the cellular membrane, is a major mechanism in the HA-mediated stimulation of PMN migration. 相似文献

The U937 human monocytic cell line was studied to determine its ability to generate a respiratory burst after stimulation with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) or opsonized zymosan. U937 cells cultured in normal medium produced virtually no superoxide anion or chemiluminescence in response to either stimulus. In contrast, U937 cells cultured in medium containing soluble factors from activated lymphocytes produced significant O2- and chemiluminescence when stimulated with PMA or opsonized zymosan. The chemiluminescence in response to PMA was maximal in U937 cells precultured with these soluble factors for 3 days, whereas maximal responsiveness to opsonized zymosan was not observed until 5 to 6 days of lymphokine exposure. Although this ability to generate a respiratory burst persisted for a number of days in U937 cells that were subsequently recultured in normal medium, this responsiveness was gradually lost in the continued absence of these factors. The data indicate that the U937 monocytic cell line can be activated or induced to differentiate by soluble factors released by activated lymphocytes. In the process, these cells acquire the ability to generate a respiratory burst. The U937 cell line may serve as a useful model for the study of the ontogeny and regulation of the respiratory burst during human monocytic differentiation. 相似文献

The respiratory burst response to Histoplasma capsulatum by human neutrophils. Evidence for intracellular trapping of superoxide anion 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
Human neutrophils (PMN) have received little attention as to the role they play in host defense against Histoplasma capsulatum (Hc). We have characterized the binding and phagocytosis of Hc yeasts by human PMN and quantified the PMN respiratory burst in response to this organism. mAb specific for CD11a, CD11b, and CD11c all partially blocked the attachment of unopsonized yeasts to PMN; a mAb to CD18 inhibited attachment by greater than 90%. Thus, human PMN recognize and bind Hc yeasts via CD18 adhesion receptors as has been found for human cultured macrophages and alveolar macrophages. Unopsonized yeasts were phagocytosed by PMN, but phagocytosis was increased markedly by heat-labile and heat-stable serum opsonins. These opsonins promoted enhanced phagocytosis of yeasts by increasing the attachment of Hc yeasts to the PMN membrane. Phagocytosis of viable or heat-killed Hc yeasts by PMN did not induce the secretion of superoxide anion (O2-) as quantified by the reduction of cytochrome c. O2- was not detected when yeasts were opsonized in normal serum or immune serum, or at a ratio of yeasts to PMN of up to a 100:1. However, phagocytosis of opsonized yeasts by PMN did not prevent them from subsequently releasing O2- after further incubation with opsonized zymosan or PMA. Opsonized Hc yeasts clearly stimulated the PMN respiratory burst as quantified by intracellular reduction of nitroblue tetrazolium, reduction of cytochrome c in the presence of cytochalasin D, oxygen consumption, luminol-enhanced and nonenhanced chemiluminescence, and H2O2 production. These data suggest that phagocytosis of Hc yeasts by PMN is associated with intracellular entrapment of O2- that is not detectable by reduction of extracellular cytochrome c. 相似文献

Activation of neutrophils by recombinant interleukin 6 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
The cytokine interleukin 6 (IL-6) has been shown to have multiple biological activities against many cellular targets. The present studies were designed to determine whether these activities extended to the neutrophil (PMN). Initially, we investigated the ability of IL-6 to modulate PMN-mediated antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. The presence of IL-6 stimulated 51Cr release from labeled, opsonized targets by 67.1% (from 21.6 +/- 1.4% to 36.1 +/- 1.3% at 10 U of IL-6 (P less than 0.01)). IL-6 was not directly toxic to the target cells and stimulation of ADCC was shown to occur across a range of effector-to-target ratios. To investigate the basis of the capacity of IL-6 to stimulate PMN, we studied the effects of IL-6 on PMN chemotaxis, degranulation, and the respiratory burst. IL-6 was not chemotactic or chemokinetic for PMN. However, IL-6 stimulated lysozyme secretion from 14.1 +/- 2.5 to 23.7 +/- 3.6% at 100 U (P less than 0.01). IL-6 was a complete secretagogue, being able to induce the secretion of both the secretory granule marker lactoferrin (11.2 +/- 2.0 to 23.5 +/- 2.2%) and the primary granule marker beta-glucuronidase (5.0 +/- 1.0 to 18.2 +/- 4.0%). IL-6 was not able to directly stimulate the PMN respiratory burst. However, IL-6 did "prime" PMN, enhancing superoxide secretion by fMLP (10(-7) M)-treated PMN by 50.8% (5.9 +/- 1.0 to 8.9 +/- 1.5 nmol superoxide at 100 U of IL-6; P less than 0.01) and PMA (5.0 nM) by 54.3% (8.1 +/- 2.6 to 12.5 +/- 3.6 nmol; P less than 0.05). In conclusion, IL-6 is a PMN stimulant, enhancing the toxicity of PMN in an antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity assay. Enhanced cytotoxicity may have been mediated, at least in part, by the stimulation of secretion of toxic components from PMN targets and by the priming of stimulating respiratory burst activity. 相似文献

ESR studies on active oxygen radicals produced in the respiratory burst of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The mechanism and process of production of active oxygen radicals in the respiratory burst of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) stimulated with PMA (phorbol myristate acetate) was studied in this paper. The experimental results indicate that when the PMA was dilute enough or at the beginning of stimulation even when the PMA concentration was high, the spectrum of hydroxyl radical spin adducts, DMPO-OH, was dominant in the ESR spectra. However, at the maximum level of the respiratory burst, the spectrum of superoxide anion spin adducts, DMPO-OOH, was dominant. 相似文献

Antisperm antibody (ASA)- and complement (C)-mediated immune injury to human sperm is thought to be caused in part by phagocytic neutrophils. To investigate this process, we co-cultured purified human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) with swim-up sperm in the presence of ASA-positive and ASA-negative sera and assayed for PMN respiratory burst activity, monitored by the release of superoxide anion (O2-) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) and opsonized zymosan were used as positive controls. Phagocytosis of ASA-positive and C-bound sperm by PMN did not enhance O2- production when compared to incubation of sperm with ASA-negative sera. Phagocytosis of ASA-positive and C-bound sperm also resulted in minimal release of H2O2 when compared with ASA-positive and C-negative sperm that were not phagocytosed. In contrast, PMN were maximally stimulated to release O2- in response to either opsonized zymosan or PMA. The kinetics of PMA-induced O2- release was unaffected by the presence of ASA-positive and C-bound sperm. Cytocentrifuge preparations of PMN incubated with ASA-positive and C-bound sperm revealed limited O2- release at the site of PMN/sperm contact. These results indicated that 1) phagocytosis of motile sperm by PMN requires the binding of both ASA and C to the sperm surface; 2) phagocytosis of ASA-positive and C-positive sperm by PMN fails to release reactive oxygen species; and 3) metabolic processes associated with PMN respiratory burst activity may not be coupled to the ingestion of ASA-positive and C-bound sperm. 相似文献

Nonpurulent response to toxic shock syndrome toxin 1-producing Staphylococcus aureus. Relationship to toxin-stimulated production of tumor necrosis factor 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16

Infection of surgical wounds with toxic shock syndrome toxin 1 (TSST-1)-producing Staphylococcus aureus does not usually elicit a purulent response from the host. Because S. aureus is normally a pyogenic pathogen, this phenomenon suggests that strains of staphylococci that produce the exotoxin are able to inhibit the migration of polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) to sites of infection. We have considered that inhibition of leukocyte migration may be an effect of secreted TSST-1 and have studied direct and indirect effects of the exotoxin on migratory functions of PMN in vitro. Preincubation of PMN with TSST-1 produced no inhibition of random motility or FMLP- or C5a-stimulated chemotaxis under agarose. Supernatant fluids from mononuclear leukocytes incubated with TSST-1, however, were potently inhibitory for both PMN random and chemotactic migratory functions. The inhibitor of migration was identified as TNF based upon neutralization by anti-TNF antiserum and its presence in the culture supernatant fluids assayed in terms of cytotoxicity for murine TNF-sensitive L-929 cell line cells. Preincubation of PMN with recombinant human TNF also inhibited subsequent PMN random and chemotactic migratory functions. We propose that TSST-1 inhibits the mobilization of PMN to sites of infection by stimulation of monocyte/macrophage TNF production and suggest that TNF may also contribute to some other effects of toxic shock syndrome. 相似文献

Although prior studies with mAb have defined an endogenous chymotrypsin-like protease in the neutrophil (polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN)) membrane that is associated with initiation of superoxide response to inflammatory stimuli, it is not known whether extracellular proteases (in the inflammatory milieu) can also influence PMN activation. This study examined the ability of four neutral proteases: cathepsin G, elastase, chymotrypsin, and trypsin, to modify PMN superoxide response to FMLP, PMA, and arachidonate. In response to 1 microM FMLP, PMN treated with cathepsin G, chymotrypsin, or elastase showed 64%, 60%, and 32% increases, respectively, in superoxide generation when compared with control, untreated cells (p less than 0.05 for each). These increments were dependent on intact enzymatic function of the proteases, were greatest when enzyme and stimulus were added concurrently, and persisted after PMN were washed free of enzyme. Enhancement of superoxide response was not stimulus specific; in response to 10 ng/ml PMA, cells treated with cathepsin G showed a 84%, and elastase a 57%, increase in superoxide generation (p less than 0.05 for both) with a marked reduction in the time required for onset of this response. For cell activation with 80 microM arachidonate, treatment with elastase produced a 180% increase in superoxide production (p less than 0.025). Neutrophils incubated with trypsin demonstrated significant decreases in superoxide response to PMA (-34%, p less than 0.05) and arachidonate (-39%, p less than 0.01). The enzymes themselves were not stimuli for superoxide production nor were they scavengers for superoxide in cellfree system. We conclude that local release of the PMN primary-granule neutral proteases, cathepsin G, and elastase within inflammatory sites can augment neutrophil effector function by up-regulating oxidative response to defined inflammatory stimuli. This autocrine/paracrine function may provide a significant increase in antimicrobial activity, but may also enhance the potential for host tissue injury. 相似文献

We studied the effects in vitro of high-density lipoprotein from healthy (N-HDL) and from infected humans (AP-HDL) on the oxidative metabolism of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN). Products of the H2O2–MPO–halide system were monitored by luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence and superoxide anion formation was monitored by lucigenin-enhanced chemiluminescence during stimulation of human PMN with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) or an opsonized stimulus (OS). The results showed that N-HDL and AP-HDL affect the oxidative metabolism of PMN in different ways. The posible role of this effect is discussed. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

An artificial immune complex consisting of IgG covalently bound to polyacrylic acid (PAIGP) was prepared and investigated for its influence on a number of immunological reactions attributed to natural immune complexes. PAIGP consumed complement in a fast reaction. Complement consumption was complete after 10 min of incubation of guinea-pig serum with PAIGP. The concentration of PAIGP for 50% consumption was 2.3 micrograms/ml. PAIGP induced a chemiluminescence response in human peripheral polymorphonuclear leukocytes. This response was elicited in the absence and presence of serum and in whole blood. The response was maximal for leukocytes in the absence of serum and rather low in whole blood. The induction of chemiluminescence by PAIGP was inhibited by monoclonal antibodies to one of the Fc receptors of leukocytes (anti-Leu 11B), while unrelated antibodies had no influence on the chemiluminescence induced by PAIGP. PAIGP also stimulated the production of superoxide anion by polymorphonuclear leukocytes. The efficacy of PAIGP in stimulation of superoxide production was comparable to phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) and opsonized zymosan. PAIGP induced the discharge of elastase, a constituent of the azurophile granules of PMN leukocytes. Here, PAIGP was a rather weak stimulus compared to opsonized zymosan. PMA proved unable to induce elastase release. Thus, PAIGP induced a number of biological reactions usually brought about by naturally occurring antigen antibody complexes. 相似文献

Syndecan-4 participates in focal adhesion by non-G protein-dependent activation of protein kinase C. Ligation of syndecan-4 with antithrombin elicits pertussis toxin-sensitive chemotaxis of leukocytes. As activation of protein kinase C stimulates release of sphingosine-1-phosphate, a chemoattracting G protein-coupled receptor agonist, we studied directional migration of leukocytes in response to phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), a direct activator of protein kinase C. Human peripheral blood neutrophils, monocytes, and lymphocytes were purified and tested for chemotactic migration in micropore filter assays in response to PMA. Dose-dependent stimulation of migration was seen only when leukocytes were exposed to concentration gradients of PMA; in the absence of such a gradient, inhibition of random migration was induced. Dimethylsphingosine inhibited PMA-induced leukocyte chemotaxis, indicating that activation of sphingosine kinase for enhanced production of sphingosine-1-phosphate mediates the chemotactic response to PMA. Pertussis toxin abrogated the chemotactic response to PMA, suggesting involvement of G protein-coupled sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor. Dimethylsphingosine also inhibited leukocyte chemotaxis toward antithrombin, indicating that similar mechanisms may be involved upon syndecan-4 ligation. Data show that protein kinase C-dependent activation of sphingosine kinase may play a central role in leukocyte chemotaxis toward non-G protein-coupled receptor agonists. 相似文献

Treatment of human granulocytes with concanavalin A, phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP), and A23187 (a calcium ionophore) stimulates the release of superoxide anion and the generation of chemiluminescence. The fluorescent probe, Di-S-C3(5), has been used to monitor shifts in membrane potential in response to these stimulants which precede the secretion of superoxide. Concanavalin A, PMA, and FMLP induce a biphasic shift in transmembrane potential (Em), i.e., a rapid depolarization followed by a prolonged hyperpolarization. This depolarization is dependent on both external sodium and calcium while the hyperpolarization is inhibited by ouabain which blocks the electrogenic Na-K pump. In contrast, A23187 induces a rapid and prolonged depolarization. This monophasic shift in Em is dependent on external calcium. These results suggest that depolarization acts as a signal to initiate events associated with the “respiratory burst” of these phagocytes. 相似文献

Human neutrophils (PMN) possess at least two distinct mechanisms for the ingestion of IgG-opsonized pathogens; one is independent of and the other is dependent on products of the respiratory burst. Oxidant-mediated ingestion is not induced by exposure to the IgG-opsonized target but requires additional stimulation by phorbol esters or cytokines. The purpose of the present work is to elucidate the signal transduction pathways underlying these two distinct phagocytic mechanisms. Both phorbol ester- and cytokine-stimulated ingestion of IgG-opsonized targets and superoxide anion production were inhibited by the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors TFP and H7. In contrast, neither phagocytosis nor superoxide anion generation induced by stimulation with IgG-opsonized targets alone was affected by either of these inhibitors, even when IgG opsonization was increased to generate equal levels of ingestion and superoxide anion as that observed with cytokine stimulation. Moreover, TNF-alpha and IgG-opsonized target stimulation of PMN showed marked synergy in translocation of PKC activity from the cytosol to the plasma membrane. These data indicate that a pathway for activation of the respiratory burst which is dependent on protein kinase C is involved in oxidant-mediated amplification of ingestion. Cytokine stimulation of PMN not only augments IgG-dependent ingestion and generation of superoxide anion but also changes the signaling pathway for these two IgG-dependent functions from PKC-independent to PKC-dependent. In this regard, cytokine stimulation differentiates two pathways for activation of PMN by IgG. 相似文献

The plasma membrane and intracellular granules of human polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) contain large amounts of the glycolipid, lactosylceramide (LacCer; Gal beta 1----4Glc beta 1----1Cer). Despite its abundance, novel subcellular distribution, and lineage-restricted expression, nothing of PMN LacCer function is known. We examined the relationship between LacCer and PMN activation by assessing binding of anti-LacCer mAb (T5A7; anti-CDw17) to PMN during and after cell stimulation. CDw17 expression markedly decreased after treatment with PMA, dioctanoylglycerol, calcium ionophore, FMLP (with or without cytochalasin B or added Ca2+), TNF-alpha, or lymphotoxin. Depending on the stimulus, CDw17 declined to levels ranging from 70% (TNF, lymphotoxin) to less than 5% (phorbol ester, dioctanoylglycerol) of levels detected on untreated PMN. Loss of CDw17 from PMA-treated PMN followed dose- and temperature-dependent kinetics, with loss being detected after PMA treatment for 1 min. Membrane internalization explained PMA-induced loss of CDw17, as cell-associated 125I-anti-CDw17 became inaccessible to fluorescent anti-Ig after PMA treatment. CDw17 on PMN cytoplasts or retinoic acid-induced HL-60 cells was only slightly affected by stimulation, suggesting that down-regulation of the epitope is associated with granule exocytosis rather than superoxide production. Results with PMN from a patient with chronic granulomatous disease confirmed that normal superoxide production is not required for CDw17 loss induced by PMA or FMLP treatment. The data collectively demonstrate that reduced levels of cell-surface CDw17 are associated with granule exocytosis after PMN activation. 相似文献
