2.5S nerve growth factor enhances survival, phagocytosis, and superoxide production of murine neutrophils.
The effect of 2.5S nerve growth factor (NGF) on survival, phagocytosis, and superoxide production of murine neutrophils was examined and compared with the effects of interleukin-3 (IL-3) and recombinant GM colony-stimulating factor (rGM-CSF). NGF enhanced the viability of neutrophils isolated from peripheral blood and peritoneal cavity in a dose-dependent way. IL-3 50 U/mL had no effect. rGM-CS...
متن کاملSoluble Expression of Recombinant Nerve Growth Factor in Cytoplasm of Escherichia coli
Background: Pivotal roles of Nerve growth factor (NGF) in the development and survival of both neuronal and non-neuronal cells indicate its potential for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. However, investigation of NGF deficits in different diseases requires the availability of properly folded human b-NGF. In previous studies bacterial expression of hNGF demonstrated the feasibility o...
متن کاملRac2-deficient murine macrophages have selective defects in superoxide production and phagocytosis of opsonized particles.
The Rho family GTPase Rac is a crucial participant in numerous cellular functions and acts as a molecular switch for signal transduction. Mice deficient in hemopoietic-specific Rac2 exhibited agonist-specific defects in neutrophil functions including chemoattractant-stimulated filamentous actin polymerization and chemotaxis, and superoxide production elicited by phorbol ester, fMLP, or IgG-coat...
متن کاملRecombinant Human Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony-stimulating Factor Stimulates
A purified recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (rH GM-CSF) was a powerful stimulator of mature human eosinophils and neutrophils. The purified rH GMCSF enhanced the cytotoxic activity of neutrophils and eosinophils against antibody-coated targets, stimulated phagocytosis of serum-opsonized yeast by both cell types in a dose-dependent manner, and stimulated neutrop...
متن کاملInteractions with apoptotic but not with necrotic neutrophils increase parasite burden in human macrophages infected with Leishmania amazonensis.
Neutrophils are involved in the initial steps of most responses to pathogens. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of the interaction of apoptotic vs. necrotic human neutrophils on macrophage infection by Leishmania amazonensis. Phagocytosis of apoptotic, but not viable, neutrophils by Leishmania-infected macrophages led to an increase in parasite burden via a mechanism dependent on T...
