ABSTRACT Nitrite production by rat alveolar macrophages was studied to determine the role of L-arginine oxidation in the interaction between these cells and Pneumocystis carinii. Alveolar macrophages from rats obtained from two different breeders were used: rats from Janvier breeder had latent P. carinii infection, while those from Charles River breeder were bred in a germ-free environment. Pneumocystis carinii increased in vitro nitrite generation by unstimulated alveolar macrophages from Janvier rats only, and this was blocked by NG-monomethyl-L-arginine. Incubation of cells from Janvier and Charles River rats with lipopolysaccharide and/or interferon-gamma increased nitrite production to a similar extent. Pneumocystis carinii partially decreased nitrite release by activated alveolar macrophages, and this was still inhibited by NG-monomethyl-L-arginine. In the presence of P. carinii, superoxide dismutase used as a superoxide anion scavenger had no effect on nitrite production by activated cells. These results show that prior exposure to P. carinii leads to nitric oxide production by rat alveolar macrophages. Although the magnitude of this production seems to be moderate, it is of biological significance since cells of P. curinii-naive rats do not generate nitrite whereas those of latently infected rats do. 相似文献

Oil palm fruits exposed to temperatures of 15 °C and belowshowed a significant increase in free fatty acid (FFA) contentin the mesocarp. This effect was most pronounced in fruits exposedto 5 °C when FFA levels exceeding 70% of the total oil wereobserved. The increase in FFA was accompanied by an increasein lipid-soluble phosphorus levels and a decrease in carotenecontent. Chilling did not have an effect on palm kernel oil.The results suggest the activation of a lipase in the mesocarpby low temperature stress. Key words: Lipase, oil palm, free fatty acid 相似文献
