Neutrophil chemotaxis and anaesthesia.
Using a modified Boyden technique, the ability of normal human neutrophils to migrate in response to chemotactic stimulation was evaluated during exposure in vitro to halothane and thiopentone. No abnormality in neutrophil chemotaxis could be demonstrated with either agent at concentrations used clinically. The anaesthetics also did not effect serum complement, which was used as the chemotactic...
متن کاملExosomes Mediate LTB4 Release during Neutrophil Chemotaxis
Leukotriene B4 (LTB4) is secreted by chemotactic neutrophils, forming a secondary gradient that amplifies the reach of primary chemoattractants. This strategy increases the recruitment range for neutrophils and is important during inflammation. Here, we show that LTB4 and its synthesizing enzymes localize to intracellular multivesicular bodies that, upon stimulation, release their content as ex...
متن کاملNeutrophil-Endothelial Cell Interaction
Methods Bovine microvascular endothelial cells (MEC) were able to degrade the H202 generated by phorbol myristate acetate-activated bovine neutrophils or by glucose oxidase with a maximal capacity of 4.0±1.2 (SD) nmol/10' cells/min, corresponding to the H202 released by about 3 X 10' neutrophils. H202 degradation occurred via the glutathione redox cycle and catalase. Degradation via the glutath...
متن کاملmTOR and differential activation of mitochondria orchestrate neutrophil chemotaxis
Neutrophils use chemotaxis to locate invading bacteria. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) release and autocrine purinergic signaling via P2Y2 receptors at the front and A2a receptors at the back of cells regulate chemotaxis. Here, we examined the intracellular mechanisms that control these opposing signaling mechanisms. We found that mitochondria deliver ATP that stimulates P2Y2 receptors in respons...
متن کاملCalpain regulates neutrophil chemotaxis.
Cell polarization is required for directed cell migration. We investigated the role of the calcium-dependent protease calpain during neutrophil chemotaxis and found that calpain inhibition induced neutrophil adhesion, polarization, and rapid chemokinesis in the absence of exogenous activators. Resting neutrophils display constitutive calpain activity with mu-calpain being the predominant active...
