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

The activity of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) during the respiratory burst in phorbol-1,2-myristate-1,3-acetate (PMA) stimulated macrophages has been the topic of much debate in the literature. To help clarify the role of NOS, we have examined the chemiluminescence arising from peroxynitrite production, nitrite/nitrate and nitric oxide production, and oxygen consumption during the respiratory burst in PMA-stimulated macrophages. The Griess reaction was used to measure nitrite/nitrate, spin trapping with N-methyl D-glucamine dithiocarbamate (MGD)2-Fe2+ was used to quantify nitric oxide, and the spin probe 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl-4-ol (TEMPOL) was used to measure oxygen consumption. Oxygen free radical production (hydroxyl and superoxide free radicals) was also investigated using the spin trap 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyroline-1-oxide (DMPO). The chemiluminescence emitted by the PMA-stimulated macrophages and nitrite/nitrate in the culture system were both found to increase. However, the rate of nitric oxide release remained constant, indicating that the activity of NOS is not enhanced during the respiratory burst in PMA stimulated macrophages.  相似文献

The respiratory burst and production of oxygen radicals by lymphocytes stimulated with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) was studied and compared with that of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and spin trapping technique. Superoxide anion and hydroxyl radicals spin adducts of DMPO were detected in the stimulated PMN system, but only hydroxyl radical spin adducts of DMPO were detected in the stimulated lymphocyte system. It was proved by superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase that the hydroxyl radicals produced in the stimulated lymphocyte system came from superoxide anions, just like the hydroxyl radicals produced in the stimulated PMN.  相似文献

Scavenging effect of schizandrins on active oxygen radicals   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The reactive oxygen radicals produced from human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) stimulated with PMA (phorbol myristate acetate), hydroxyl radicals generated by a Fenton reaction, and superoxide anion radicals produced by irradiating solutions of riboflavin in the presence of EDTA have been taken as the models for production of oxygen radicals. With the use of the electron spin resonance spin trapping method, the scavenging effects of schizandrol A (solA) (5 x 10(-4) M) and schizandrin B (sinB) (5 x 10(-4) M) have been studied and compared with the effects of vitamin E (5 x 10(-4) M) and vitamin C (5 x 10(-4) M). It has been found that in cell system the scavenging effects of sinB and solA, as judged by ESR spin trappings, on hydrpxyl radicals (.OH) are greater than vitamin E and vitamin C and the scavenging effects on superoxide anion (O2) are greater than vitamin E but lower than vitamin C. With respect to the Fenton reaction, sinB has the strogest scavenging effect on .OH (77%) and solA has strong scavenging effect on .OH (63%), both of them larger than that of vitamin E (35%) and vitamin C (56%). In the riboflavin/EDTA system, the scavenging effect of sinB (46%) is smaller than that of vitamin C (96%) but larger than that of vitamin E (23%); the scavenging effect of solA is not obvious (14%). With the use of spin probe oximetry, the oxygen consumption during the respiratory burst of stimulated PMN has been measured when exposed to schizandrins. The experiment results demonstrated that they do not affect the activity of production of active oxygen radicals in the respiratory burst of PMN stimulated with PMA.  相似文献

Effect of nitric oxide (NO) on the respiratory burst of neutrophils was examined under different oxygen tensions. Phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) stimulated oxygen consumption and superoxide (O2-) generation in neutrophils by a mechanism which was inhibited reversibly by NO. The inhibitory effect of NO increased significantly with a decrease in oxygen tension in the medium. The inhibitory effect of NO was suppressed in medium containing oxyhemoglobin (HbO2), a NO scavenging agent. In contrast, 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1), a compound that rapidly generates peroxynitrite (ONOO-) from the released NO and O2-, slightly stimulated the PMA-induced respiratory burst. These results suggested that NO, but not ONOO, might reversibly inhibit superoxide generation by neutrophils especially at physiologically low oxygen tensions thereby decreasing oxygen toxicity particularly in and around hypoxic tissues.  相似文献

The sesquiterpene lactone tubiferin was chemically purified from the brazilian native plant Wunderlichia crulsiana and identified by NMR and GC/MS data. Its ability to inhibit the respiratory burst of peritoneal inflammatory polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) stimulated upon addition of phorbol miristate acetate (PMA), opsonized zymosan (OZ), and N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP) was evaluated. The tubiferin inhibition was more pronounced when PMN were stimulated through the protein kinase C pathway (PMA) compared to the alternative complement pathway (OZ). The inhibition when PMN were triggered by a chemoattractant stimulus (fMLP) was similar to that achieved with OZ-stimulated phagocytes. Tubiferin showed dose-dependent effects on the PMN respiratory burst triggered by the three different substances, and also decreased substantially the carrageenan-induced mice paw edema.  相似文献

With the use of the spin trapping methods, the scavenging effects of the extracts of green tea and other natural foods are studied. In stimulated polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) system, water extract fraction 6 (F6) from green tea and green tea polyphenols (GTP) have the strongest scavenging effect on the active oxygen radicals, much stronger than vitamin C (Vc) and vitamin E (VE). Rosemary antioxidants (RA) and Curcumin (Cur) have weaker scavenging effects than Vc, but stronger than VE. In Fenton Reaction, Cur has the strongest scavenging effect (69%) on hydroxyl radicals. In irradiation, riboflavin system F6(74%) and GTP(72%) have very strong scavenging effects that are weaker than Vc, but much stronger than VE (23%). With the use of spin probe oxymetry, the oxygen consumption in respiratory burst of stimulated PMN were measured when the antioxidants existed in these systems. The results demonstrated that these antioxidants did not affect the respiratory burst of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes stimulated with PMA.  相似文献

The provision of glutamine in vivo has been observed to reduce to normal levels the neutrophilia observed after exhaustive exercise and to decrease the neutrophil chemoattractant, interleukin-8. Thus, the role for glutamine in the regulation of inflammatory mediators of human neutrophil activation was investigated. The study sought to establish whether glutamine supplementation in vitro affects neutrophil function at rest and whether glutaminase, the major enzyme that metabolizes glutamine, is present in human polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN). During in vitro studies, the addition of 2 mm glutamine increased the respiratory burst of human PMN stimulated with both phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) and formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine. These observations were made using a highly sensitive, real time chemiluminescent probe, Pholasin. Glutamine alone did not stimulate the release of reactive oxygen species. In a novel finding using glutaminase-specific antibodies in combination with flow cytometry and confocal microscopy, glutaminase was shown to be present on the surface of human PMN. Subcellular fractionation revealed that the enzyme was enriched in the secondary granules and could be released into cell culture medium upon stimulation with PMA. In conclusion, human PMN appeared to utilize glutamine and possess the appropriate glutaminase enzyme for metabolizing glutamine. This may depress some pro-inflammatory factors that occur during prolonged, exhaustive exercise.  相似文献

The healthy intact polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) were labeled with 4-maleimide-TEMPO spin labeling compound (MAL) to study the effects of oxygen radicals produced by phorbol myristate acetate (PMA)-stimulated PMNs on the conformation of sulfhydryl (SH) groups of PMN membrane proteins. The lipid peroxidation induced by PMA-stimulated PMNs was detected by evaluating the formation of malonaldehyde (MDA) with the thiobarbituric acid (TBA) test. From the experiments of luminol-dependent chemiluminescence (CL) and fluorometry, it was found that Chinese herbs schizandrin B (Sin B) and quercetin (Q) possessed scavenging properties for oxygen radicals produced during the PMN respiratory burst. These two herbs can also inhibit the conformation changes in SH binding sites on the PMN membrane proteins caused by oxygen radicals produced by the PMNs themselves. They also decreased the amount of MDA, which was a final product formed during lipid peroxidation.  相似文献

The phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) stimulated nutrophil respiratory burst has been considered to simply involve the activation of protein kinase C (PKC). However, the PLD activity was also increased by 10‐fold in human neutrophils stimulated with 100 nM PMA. Unexpectedly, U73122, an inhibitor of phospholipase C, was found to significantly inhibit PMA‐stimulated respiratory burst in human neutrophils. U73122 at the concentrations, which were sufficient to inhibit the respiratory burst completely, caused partial inhibition of the PLD activity but no inhibition on PKC translocation and activation, suggesting that PLD activity is also required in PMA‐stimulated respiratory burst. Using 1‐butanol, a PLD substrate, to block phosphatidic acid (PA) generation, the PMA‐stimulated neutrophil respiratory burst was also partially inhibited, further indicating that PLD activation, possibly its hydrolytic product PA and diacylglycerol (DAG), is involved in PMA‐stimulated respiratory burst. Since GF109203X, an inhibitor of PKC that could completely inhibit the respiratory burst in PMA‐stimulated neutrophils, also caused certain suppression of PLD activation, it may suggest that PLD activation in PMA‐stimulated neutrophils might be, to some extent, PKC dependent. To further study whether PLD contributes to the PMA stimulated respiratory burst through itself or its hydrolytic product, 1,2‐dioctanoyl‐sn‐glycerol, an analogue of DAG , was used to prime cells at low concentration, and it reversed the inhibition of PMA‐stimulated respiratory burst by U73122. The results indicate that U73122 may act as an inhibitor of PLD, and PLD activation is required in PMA‐stimulated respiratory burst.  相似文献

Body temperature can modulate the pathogenesis of infectious, metabolic and autoimmune diseases. This effect has been attributed to several hypothesized mechanisms. Body temperature could play an important role in influencing some cellular functions of human white blood cells. In this work we examined the temperature effect on the respiratory burst in human neutrophils. Human polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMN) were obtained from heparinized venous blood by dextran sedimentation and erythrocyte lysis with NH4Cl (0.87%). Granulocytes were stimulated with opsonized zymosan (OZ), formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP), phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), and monosodium urate (MSU) crystals at different temperatures (26, 37, 39, 40, 42 degrees C). The technique of luminol dependent chemiluminescence (CL) was used as indicator of oxygen free radicals (OFR) release by stimulated cells. OFR production from PMN stimulated with OZ, PMA, FMLP was higher at 37 degrees C than at 26, 39, 40, 42 degrees C (p < 0.001 OZ stimulated PMN at 40-42 degrees C; p < 0.05 PMA stimulated PMN at 42 degrees C. Significantly different from 37 degrees C value). OFR release from PMN stimulated with MSU crystals was significantly increased at 39 degrees C compared to 37 degrees C value (p < 0.001). This effect could not only be attributed to temperature influence on neutrophil activity. The specific polymorphonuclear leukocyte response to the microcrystals and the temperature influence on chemical and physical characteristics of the crystals may play an important role. We are now studying the temperature effect on activity of PMN exposed to others crystals.  相似文献

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

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

Activation of human neutrophils by PMA causes a post-translational incorporation of 14C-labeled tyrosine into multiple neutrophil (PMN) proteins, that is distinctly different from the enzymatic tyrosinolation of tubulin in FMLP-stimulated PMN. Post-translational incorporation of other radiolabeled amino acids, including the structurally similar amino acid phenylalanine, does not occur under identical conditions of neutrophil activation, suggesting an involvement of the phenolic hydroxyl group of tyrosine in the PMA-mediated reaction. Similar to the stimulation of PMN tubulin tyrosinolation by FMLP, the PMA-induced incorporation of tyrosine into multiple PMN proteins is closely associated with activation of the NADPH oxidase-mediated respiratory burst in stimulated PMN and can be inhibited by a variety of reducing agents, inhibitors of peroxidase-mediated reactions, and intracellular scavengers of oxygen radicals. Moreover, the PMA-induced post-translational incorporation of tyrosine does not occur in PMN from patients with chronic granulomatous disease and is significantly reduced (50%) in PMN of an individual with myeloperoxidase deficiency. A similar stimulus-induced incorporation of tyrosine into multiple PMN proteins is also observed in PMN exposed to various phagocytic stimuli, and the incorporated radioactivity in cells undergoing phagocytosis is substantially enriched (40- to 50-fold) in isolated PMN phagolysosomes. Consistent with this latter observation, HPLC fractionation of stimulated PMN proteins and analysis of the incorporated radioactivity reveal that the 14C label is primarily associated with PMN membrane proteins. Furthermore, this post-translational incorporation of tyrosine, like that associated with PMA stimulation, is associated with production of oxygen radicals and the generation of protein carbonyl derivatives, which are indicative of oxidative protein modifications via mixed function oxidases. Our findings indicate that tyrosine incorporation into membrane proteins of stimulated PMN is functionally relevant to the physiologic host-defense responses of human neutrophils undergoing phagocytosis.  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

Mature polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) are capable of mediating phorbol myristate acetate (PMA)- and antibody (A)-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (DCC) against ox red blood cells (ORBC) by using oxidative means. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the acquirement of these cytotoxic functions during PMN ontogeny, using the promyelocytic HL-60 cell line as a model for PMN differentiation. HL-60 cells were induced to differentiate along the PMN pathway by exposure to dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Uninduced HL-60 cells were found to be completely devoid of PMA-DCC and ADCC activity. DMSO-induced cells progressively acquired the capacity to kill ORBC and to undergo the activation of oxidative metabolic burst when triggered by PMA. Despite approximately 40% of them also were capable of binding IgG-sensitized ORBC, no ADCC activity and respiratory burst activation was observed: this finding indicates that maturing HL-60 cells require a more complete maturation than that induced by DMSO to actually exert ADCC. Together the results suggest that: a. the acquirement of both PMA-DCC and ADCC potential is a post-promyelocytic event; b. the cytotoxicity activating stimuli, PMA and IgG-coated targets, follow different post-receptor transductional pathways to trigger the effector cell lytic systems: only the PMA receptor-linked pathway develops during DMSO-driven differentiation of HL-60 cells.  相似文献

The effect of Isorhapontigenin (Iso) isolated from Belamcanda chinensis on respiratory burst of rat neutrophils was investigated. Iso (1, 10, 100 mmol/l) showed an inhibitory effect on superoxide anion and hydrogen peroxide production in phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) activated rat neutrophils in a concentration-dependent manner. Scanning electron microscopy detected that Iso (100 mmol/l) protected against surface changes in rat neutrophils stimulated with PMA. Also, 100 mmol/l Iso inhibited the release of beta-glucuronidase from the activated neutrophils. Electron-spin resonance (ESR) detected that Iso scavenged oxygen free radicals generated in the PMA activated Neutrophils. These results suggest that Iso inhibits respiratory burst of PMA-activated rat neutrophils by scavenging oxygen free radicals.  相似文献
