Oxidative metabolism in cord-blood polymorphonuclear leucocytes.
Polymorphonuclear leucocytes were isolated from cord-blood samples collected from healthy, term infants. Oxidative metabolism was assessed in these cells by hexose monophosphate shunt activity and chemiluminescence. Basal levels of oxidative metabolism were spontaneously increased in resting (nonphagocytic) cord-blood cells as compared to adult controls. As a response to phagocytosis, cord-bloo...
متن کاملOxidative metabolism in cord blood monocytes and monocyte-derived macrophages.
Little is known about phagocytosis-associated oxidative metabolism in mononuclear phagocytes from the human neonate. We investigated this phenomenon in monocytes from the cord blood of term newborn infants by measuring generation of superoxide anion (O2-) and hydroxyl radical (X OH) after stimulation with opsonized zymosan or phorbol myristate acetate. Production of these microbicidal oxygen me...
متن کاملDefects in intracellular oxidative metabolism of neutrophils undergoing apoptosis.
Apoptosis permits neutrophil recognition by macrophages, thereby not only limiting potential cytotoxicity but also promoting resolution of inflammation. A direct relationship between apoptosis and intracellular hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production was observed in phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) -stimulated neutrophils aged in culture. A significant decrease in intracellular H2O2 production...
متن کاملHuman GM-CSF primes neutrophils for enhanced oxidative metabolism in response to the major physiological chemoattractants.
Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is a T cell-derived lymphokine which induces hematopoietic precursor cells to proliferate in vitro and differentiate to neutrophils and macrophages. GM-CSF also inhibits the motility of mature neutrophils (NIF-T activity), and primes neutrophils to enhance oxidative metabolism in response to the bacterial chemoattractant, N-formyl-methio...
متن کاملEnergy metabolism of human neutrophils during phagocytosis.
Detailed quantitative studies were performed on the generation and utilization of energy by resting and phagocytosing human neutrophils. The ATP content was 1.9 fmol/cell, was constant during rest, and was not influenced by the presence or absence of glucose in the medium. The intracellular content of phosphocreatine was less than 0.2 fmol/cell. In the presence of glucose, ATP was generated alm...
