Regulation of 5-oxo-ETE synthesis by nitric oxide in human polymorphonuclear leucocytes upon their interaction with zymosan and Salmonella typhimurium

چکیده
In the present study we have presented data on the regulation of LT (leukotriene) and 5-oxo-ETE (5-oxo-6,8,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid) syntheses in human neutrophils upon interaction with OZ (opsonized zymosan) or Salmonella typhimurium. Priming of neutrophils with PMA (phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate) and LPS (lipopolysaccharide) elicits 5-oxo-ETE formation in neutrophils exposed to OZ, and the addition of AA (arachidonic acid) significantly increases 5-oxo-ETE synthesis. We found that NO (nitric oxide)-releasing compounds induce 5-oxo-ETE synthesis in neutrophils treated with OZ or S. typhimurium. Exposure of neutrophils to zymosan or bacteria in the presence of the NO donor DEA NONOate (1,1-diethyl-2-hydroxy-2-nitroso-hydrazine sodium) considerably increased the conversion of endogenously formed 5-HETE (5S-hydroxy-6,8,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid) to 5-oxo-ETE. To our knowledge, this study is the first to demonstrate that NO is a potent regulator of 5-oxo-ETE synthesis in human polymorphonuclear leucocytes exposed to Salmonella typhimurium and zymosan.

Nitric Oxide Production and Apoptosis Induction in T Cells through Stimulation of Mesenchymal Stem Cells with Zymosan
Background & Aims: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are non-hematopoietic multipotant cells, which multiply through attaching to culture plates. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are inherent immune sensors and regulators of immunomodulatory activities of MSCs. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of zymosan on stem cell polarization into anti-inflammatory phenotypes through the productio...

Nitric oxide (NO) produced from inducible NO synthase (iNOS) is an important component of host defense against intracellular pathogens. To understand how phagocytes deliver NO to ingested microorganisms while avoiding cytotoxicity, we set out to study the subcellular localization of iNOS within macrophages following phagocytosis. Confocal microscopy of immunostained cells showed that iNOS was l...

In the present study, the impact of Salmonella Typhimurium on cell-mediated immunity (CMI) was investigated in 5 week-old immuno divergent broiler lines selected for the high and low response to phytohemagglutinin-P. The immune response was assessed in peripheral-blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) induced with Salmonella Typhimurium at different time intervals (0 h, 0.5 h, 2 h, 4 h, 6 h, 12 h and ...

1. We describe a rapid and reliable technique for the assessment of basal nitric oxide release in clinical situations, using peripheral blood polymorphonuclear leucocytes isolated by a single-step density gradient procedure. The assay is based on the quantitative conversion of oxyhaemoglobin to methaemoglobin by nitric oxide. We have further examined the ability of these cells to respond to var...

The role of superoxide anion (O2-) and nitric oxide (NO) in the host defense mechanism against Salmonella typhimurium (LT-2) was examined by focusing on xanthine oxidase (XO) as an O2(-)-generating system and on inducible NO synthase (iNOS). When ICR mice were infected with a 0.1 50% lethal dose (2 x 10(5) CFU) of S. typhimurium, bacterial growth in the liver reached a peak value 3 days after i...
