Human granulocytic ehrlichiosis agent inhibits superoxide anion generation by human neutrophils.
The human granulocytic ehrlichiosis (HGE) agent, which replicates in neutrophils, was found not to induce superoxide anion (O(2)(-)) generation or extracellular release by human peripheral blood neutrophils, as measured by a luminol-dependent chemiluminescence assay or a cytochrome c reduction assay, respectively. Furthermore, the HGE agent completely prevented O(2-) release by neutrophils upon...
متن کاملSuperoxide Anion Production by Human Neutrophils Activated by Trichomonas vaginalis
Neutrophils are the predominant inflammatory cells found in vaginal discharges of patients infected with Trichomonas vaginalis. In this study, we examined superoxide anion (O2 (.-)) production by neutrophils activated by T. vaginalis. Human neutrophils produced superoxide anions when stimulated with either a lysate of T. vaginalis, its membrane component (MC), or excretory-secretory product (ES...
متن کاملCollagen activates superoxide anion production by human polymorphonuclear neutrophils.
Human polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs), purified on Ficoll-Hypaque cushions, were incubated for 5 min with calf skin acid-soluble collagen and the released superoxide anions (O2-) measured spectrophotometrically by reduction of ferricytochrome c or by chemiluminescence analysis. This collagen stimulated the release of O2- unless it had been treated with pepsin. The stimulatory activity rema...
متن کاملSuppression of superoxide anion and elastase release by C18 unsaturated fatty acids in human neutrophils.
The structure-activity relationship of 18-carbon fatty acids (C(18) FAs) on human neutrophil functions and their underlying mechanism were investigated. C(18) unsaturated (U)FAs potently inhibited superoxide anion production, elastase release, and Ca(2+) mobilization at concentrations of <10 microM in formyl-L-methionyl-L-leucyl-L-phenylalanine (FMLP)-activated human neutrophils. However, neith...
متن کاملCrosslinking of ANCA-antigens stimulates superoxide release by human neutrophils.
Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) activate primed human polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) in vitro, resulting in a respiratory burst and degranulation. In this study, the hypotheses that the initiation of this process requires engagement of the F(ab')2 portion of ANCA, and that crosslinking of ANCA target antigens is necessary to trigger superoxide (O2-) release, were explored. It...
