Metabolic, membrane, and functional responses of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes to platelet-activating factor.
The phospholipid mediator of anaphylaxis, platelet-activating factor (PAF) is chemotactic for polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN). We have examined this agent's effects on several other PMN functions. Human PMN were prepared from heparinized venous blood by Ficoll gradient. Metabolic burst was examined by measurement of O2 use and O2.- production in the presence or absence of PAF (10(-6)--10(-9)...
متن کاملProtease-activated receptor stimulation activates a Ca2+-independent phospholipase A2 in bladder microvascular endothelial cells.
Increased mast cell numbers and mast cell activation represent one of the prevalent etiologic theories for interstitial cystitis, an inflammatory condition in the bladder. This study was designed primarily to determine whether increased mast cell tryptase in the bladder wall may play a role in activating bladder endothelial cell phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)), leading to increased inflammatory pho...
متن کاملP 143: The Effect of Platelet Activating Factor on Inflammatory Response in Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system which its main characteristic is an inflammation and demyelination and subsequent, neural degeneration. Many studies have shown that inflammation causing neuronal demyelination. MS is the most common cause of chronic neurological disability in during youth which the prognosis is that can be death. Platelet activating fact...
متن کاملOscillating actin polymerization/depolymerization responses in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes.
Leukotriene B4 and platelet-activating factor induced a rapidly oscillating actin polymerization/depolymerization response in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes. N-Formylpeptides were deficient in the ability to induce these oscillations. Flow cytometric analysis of filamentous actin verified that all cells were synchronously responding in this cyclic manner. The hypothesis was tested that thes...
متن کاملEndotoxin-induced selective dysfunction of rabbit polymorphonuclear leukocytes in response to endogenous chemotactic factors.
To assess the mechanism and specificity of polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) dysfunction induced by endotoxin, rabbits were injected intravenously with 100 micrograms of Escherichia coli endotoxin, and PMN function was studied 18 to 24 h later. Compared to PMN from normal rabbits, peripheral blood PMN from rabbits injected with endotoxin showed diminished chemotactic responsiveness to two endog...
