Molecular basis of activation and regulation of the phagocyte respiratory burst.
نویسنده
چکیده
The molecular basis of activation and regulation of the phagocyte respiratory burst is discussed with particular reference to the role of inositol phospholipid hydrolysis, guanine nucleotide coupling proteins, and activation of protein kinase C.

Background: Diabetes is a hidden epidemic and the most common metabolic disorder in the world. Immune dysfunction (cellular and humoural) is one of the consequences of diabetes, including defects of phagocyte function, notably in chemotaxis, phagocytosis, and killing. Results of studies on phagocyte respiratory burst activity, however, have been contradictory. We studied the respiratory burst o...
متن کاملThe HIV-1 Nef protein and phagocyte NADPH oxidase activation.
Nef, a multifunctional HIV protein, activates the Vav/Rac/p21-activated kinase (PAK) signaling pathway. Given the potential role of this pathway in the activation of the phagocyte NADPH oxidase, we have investigated the effect of the HIV-1 Nef protein on the phagocyte respiratory burst. Microglia (cell line and primary culture) were transduced with lentiviral expression vectors. Expression of N...
متن کاملMeasurement of respiratory burst products generated by professional phagocytes.
Activation of professional phagocytes, potent microbial killers of our innate immune system, is associated with an increase in cellular consumption of molecular oxygen (O2). The burst of 02 consumption is utilized by an NADPH-oxidase to generate highly-reactive oxygen species (ROS) starting with one and two electron reductions to generate superoxide anion (O2-) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), res...
متن کاملMolecular basis of interferon-gamma and lipopolysaccharide enhancement of phagocyte respiratory burst capability. Studies on the gene expression of several NADPH oxidase components.
In this study, we analyzed the expression of genes encoding for components of the phagocyte superoxide anion-generating system in human phagocytes treated with interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) or lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Human neutrophils express high levels of the 47-kDa cytosolic factor (p47-phox), which are down-regulated after treatment with IFN-gamma, but not with LPS. On the contrary, the st...

Introduction: Although exercise his effects on human immune system, but its causes is not significantly cleared yet. This study is aimed to investigate the effect of exercise with moderate and high intensity, on changes of respiratory burst activities and neutrophil counts in college judoists. Methods: 10 male college judoists participated in this quazi-experimental study. Subjects run o...
