Depression of phagocytic activity of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes by methyl linoleate hydroperoxides.
Methyl linoleate hydroperoxides (MLHPO), a model for lipid hydroperoxides, decreased fungicidal activity of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) for fungi of Candida albicans. When PMN was cultured with MLHPO, phagocytosis to fungi was depressed. Degree of the depression was dependent on the concentration of MLHPO and the treatment time with MLHPO. These findings indicate that phagocytic ac...
متن کاملFunctional activity of enucleated human polymorphonuclear leukocytes
Enucleated human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) were prepared by centrifuging isolated, intact PMN over a discontinuous Ficoll gradient that contained 20 microM cytochalasin B. The enucleated cells (PMN cytoplasts) contained about one-third of the plasma membrane and about one-half of the cytoplasm present in intact PMN. The PMN cytoplasts contained no nucleus and hardly any granules. The v...
متن کاملLipids of alveolar macrophages, polymorphonuclear leukocytes, and their phagocytic vesicles.
Phagocytic vesicles were isolated from rabbit alveolar macrophages and guinea pig polymorphonuclear leukocytes that had ingested emulsified paraffin oil. Phospholipids and their fatty acids were determined in whole cells and in the phagocytic vesicle and pellet fractions separated from them. The cholesterol-to-phospholipid ratios in the vesicle fractions were distinctly higher than those of the...
متن کاملIsolation and properties of phagocytic vesicles from polymorphonuclear leukocytes.
A method for the isolation of intact phagocytic vesicles from guinea pig peritoneal-exudate granulocytes and human peripheral-blood leukocytes is presented. After leukocytes ingested the particles of a stable emulsion of paraffin oil, the uningested emulsion was washed away and the cells were homogenized. The homogenate was placed in the middle of a three-step discontinuous sucrose gradient and...
متن کاملFurther characterization of NADPH oxidase activity of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes.
Mn2+ was shown to catalyze a nonenzymatic oxidation of NADPH in the presence of superoxide anion by means of an isotopic assay for measurement of the oxidation of NADPH to NADP+. Human polymorphonuclear leukocyte granule NADPH oxidase activity was evaluated in the absence of Mn2+ and was found to be higher in granules from phagocytizing cells than in granules from resting cells. The drug phorbo...
