Arachidonic acid metabolism in polymorphonuclear leukocytes from patients with chronic granulomatous disease.

چکیده
The effect of the calcium ionophore A23187 on the release and metabolism of [3H]arachidonic acid was examined in normal polymorphonuclear leukocytes and those obtained from patients with chronic granulomatous disease. The ionophore A23187 which stimulates oxidative metabolism in normal polymorphonuclear leukocytes was ineffective in increasing oxidative metabolism (chemiluminescence) in polymorphonuclear leukocytes from patients with chronic granulomatous disease. However, the ionophore A23187 stimulated the release of [3H]arachidonic acid from chronic granulomatous disease neutrophil phospholipids and stimulated its metabolism into hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids and leukotrienes.

Leukotriene biosynthesis by polymorphonuclear leukocytes from two patients with chronic granulomatous disease.
Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL) isolated from two patients with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) were tested for their ability to metabolize arachidonic acid to lipoxygenase products including 5(S),12(R)-dihydroxy-6,14-cis-8,10-trans-eicosatetraenoic acid (LTB4). Analyses of incubations of these PMNL with arachidonic acid and the calcium ionophore A23187 did not differ from simultaneous ...
متن کاملRole of arachidonic acid in stimulation of hexose transport by human polymorphonuclear leukocytes.
Whereas insulin does not stimulate hexose transport in polymorphonuclear leukocytes, we recently reported that C5a causes the leukocytes to take up 2-[(3)H]deoxyglucose. We now find that fMet-Leu-Phe, in a concentration-related manner with an EC(50) (concentration producing 50% of stimulatory activity) of 1.2 nM, causes a 5.5-fold stimulation of deoxyglucose uptake. Moreover, arachidonic acid (...
متن کاملStudies of the metabolic activity of leukocytes from patients with a genetic abnormality of phagocytic function.
Polymorphonuclear leukocytes from patients with chronic granulomatous disease respond to the phagocytosis of latex particles with normal increments in glucose consumption, lactate production, Krebs' cycle activity, and lipid turnover. The leukocytes of these patients fail to show normal increments in respiration, direct oxidation of glucose, and hydrogen peroxide formation during particle uptak...
متن کاملDefective polymorphonuclear leukocyte metabolism and function in canine cyclic neutropenia.
Humans and grey collie dogs with cyclic neutropenia are known to suffer from an increased rate of bacterial infection. Because of the previously described microanatomic abnormalities of lysosome formation found in the polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) of dogs with canine cyclic neutropenia, studies of these cells were undertaken. PMNs from grey collie dogs were found to have significant metab...
