Diacylglycerol accumulation and superoxide anion production in stimulated human neutrophils.
Exogenous diacylglycerols stimulate neutrophil superoxide anion production, suggesting that endogenous diacylglycerols may function as second messengers for this biological response. We have measured the diacylglycerol mass in human neutrophils stimulated by fMet-Leu-Phe, ionomycin, and concanavalin A and have correlated the kinetics and magnitude of the diacylglycerol response with those for s...
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 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 کاملIdentification of intracellular sites of superoxide production in stimulated neutrophils.
In this study, we show that superoxide production is carried out within intracellular compartments of human neutrophils and not at the plasma membrane following stimulation with phorbol myristate acetate. Oxidant production was not observed in unstimulated cells. Stimulated cells exhibited superoxide production in two distinct types of intracellular organelles. Initially, activity was detected ...
متن کاملNeutrophil Superoxide Anion Production
Superoxide and other oxygen radicals produced by activated polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) may be important causes of tissue damage in a number ofinflammatory conditions. Therefore, a drug which suppresses PMN responses in vivo is potentially important. In vitro, pentoxifylline (PTOX) inhibits superoxide anion production when PMN are stimulated with an activated complement component (C5a Des...
