Phosphatidylserine externalization and procoagulant activation of erythrocytes induced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa virulence factor pyocyanin
The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa causes a wide range of infections in multiple hosts by releasing an arsenal of virulence factors such as pyocyanin. Despite numerous reports on the pleiotropic cellular targets of pyocyanin toxicity in vivo, its impact on erythrocytes remains elusive. Erythrocytes undergo an apoptosis-like cell death called eryptosis which is characterized by ce...
متن کاملCaspase 3 regulates phosphatidylserine externalization and phagocytosis of oxidatively stressed erythrocytes.
The appearance of phosphatidylserine (PS) on the outer surface of red cells is an important signal for their uptake by macrophages. We report for the first time that procaspase 3 present in the anucleated mature human erythrocyte is activated under oxidative stress induced by t-butylhydroperoxide leading to impairment of the aminophospholipid translocase, PS externalization and increased erythr...
متن کاملPhosphatidylserine transport in Rhnull erythrocytes.
Phosphatidylserine transport in normal and Rhnull red blood cells was determined by measuring characteristic morphologic changes induced by synthetic phospholipids. Treating normal A+ cells with commercial anti-A antisera, anti-Rho(D) antisera, or with saturating concentrations of purified Rho(D) antibodies had no effect on phosphatidylserine transport. Normal B- cells treated with purified ant...
متن کاملPhospholipid signaling in apoptosis: peroxidation and externalization of phosphatidylserine.
The role of phospholipids in apoptosis signaling and the relationship between oxidation of phosphatidylserine and its redistribution in the plasma membrane were studied. A novel method for detection of site-specific phospholipid peroxidation based on the use of cis-parinaric acid as a reporter molecule metabolically integrated into membrane phospholipids in living cells was employed. When sever...
متن کاملSuicidal membrane repair regulates phosphatidylserine externalization during apoptosis.
One of the hallmarks of apoptosis is the redistribution of phosphatidylserine (PS) from the inner-to-outer plasma membrane (PM) leaflet, where it functions as a ligand for phagocyte recognition and the suppression of inflammatory responses. The mechanism by which apoptotic cells externalize PS has been assumed to involve "scramblases" that randomize phospholipids across the PM bilayer. These pu...
