Inactivation of transferrin iron binding capacity by the neutrophil myeloperoxidase system.
Human serum apotransferrin was exposed to the isolated myeloperoxidase-H2O2-halide system or to phorbol ester-activated human neutrophils. Such treatment resulted in a marked loss in transferrin iron binding capacity as well as concomitant iodination of transferrin. Each component of the cell-free system (myeloperoxidase, H2O2, iodide) or neutrophil system (neutrophils, phorbol ester, iodide) w...
متن کاملMechanism of inactivation of myeloperoxidase by 4-aminobenzoic acid hydrazide.
Hypochlorous acid is the most powerful oxidant generated by neutrophils and is likely to contribute to the damage mediated by these inflammatory cells. The haem enzyme myeloperoxidase catalyses its production from hydrogen peroxide and chloride. 4-Aminobenzoic acid hydrazide (ABAH) is a potent inhibitor of hypochlorous acid production. In this investigation we show that, in the presence of hydr...
متن کاملSecretion and inactivation of myeloperoxidase by isolated neutrophils.
Neutrophils prevent infection by ingesting and killing microorganisms but oxidants and proteases released by neutrophils damage host tissues. Our aim was to identify factors that regulate oxidant production by the enzyme myeloperoxidase (MPO) following secretion of MPO into the medium. Cells stimulated with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) or opsonized zymosan particles secreted MPO and released...
متن کاملOxidative inactivation of myeloperoxidase released from human neutrophils.
Within 1 min of stimulation of human neutrophils by the chemotactic peptide (N-formyl-L-methionyl-L-leucyl-L-phenylalanine) plus cytochalasin B, myeloperoxidase (together with other granule enzymes) was secreted and detected extracellularly. In contrast with the other granule constituents assayed (vitamin B12-binding protein and beta-glucuronidase), the activity of released myeloperoxidase rapi...
متن کاملPenicillin-binding protein inactivation by human neutrophil myeloperoxidase.
Myeloperoxidase (MPO), H2O2, and chloride comprise a potent antimicrobial system believed to contribute to the antimicrobial functions of neutrophils and monocytes. The mechanisms of microbicidal action are complex and not fully defined. This report describes the MPO-mediated inactivation, in Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, of a class of cytoplasmic membrane...
