Tetramethylpyrazine scavenges superoxide anion and decreases nitric oxide production in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes.
Tetramethylpyrazine is one of the active ingredients of the Chinese herb Ligusticum wallichii Franchat. By electron spin resonance spin trapping methods, effects of tetramethylpyrazine on superoxide anion and nitric oxide generated by human polymorphonuclear leukocytes were studied. During the respiratory burst of polymorphonuclear leukocytes induced by N-formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine, t...
متن کاملRelease of superoxide anion from polymorphonuclear leukocytes stimulated by rubella viral antigen-antibody complex in vitro.
Using a highly sensitive and specific chemiluminescence (CL) method, we detected the release of superoxide anion (O2-.) from human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNLs) stimulated by rubella viral antigen-antibody complex (VAAC) adsorbed on latex particles. The amount of superoxide anion produced by PMNLs was proportional to the amount of VAAC. Neither rubella virus alone nor antibody alone, ads...
متن کاملCollagen activates superoxide anion production by human polymorphonuclear neutrophils.
Human polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs), purified on Ficoll-Hypaque cushions, were incubated for 5 min with calf skin acid-soluble collagen and the released superoxide anions (O2-) measured spectrophotometrically by reduction of ferricytochrome c or by chemiluminescence analysis. This collagen stimulated the release of O2- unless it had been treated with pepsin. The stimulatory activity rema...
متن کاملThe enhancing effect of cytochalasin A on concanavalin A-induced superoxide anion release from polymorphonuclear leukocytes.
Superoxide anion release from polymorphonuclear leukocytes stimulated by concanavalin A was markedly enhanced by the simultaneous addition of cytochalasin A at concentrations of 2x10-s to 4x10-1M. These concentrations of cytochalasin A did not affect the phagocytosis of diisodecyl phthalate emulsion. These concentrations were far lower than those of cytochalasins B, C, D and E that also enhance...

A B S T R A C T Acetyl glyceryl ether phosphorylcholine (AGEPC) and leukotriene B4 (LTB4) induce concentration-dependent neutrophil aggregation. On a molar basis, LTB4 is 10 to 100 times more potent than AGEPC. AGEPC-induced aggregation is attenuated by two inhibitors of arachidonate lipoxygenation, eicosatetraynoic acid and nordihydroguaiaretic acid, and to a lesser extent by the cyclooxygenas...
