چکیده

We tested synthetic food colorants for their antioxidative potential by the in vitro superoxide generation assay in differentiated HL-60 cells in response to phorbol ester. Among the 12 colorants tested, such fluorescein-type red colorants as rose bengal showed potent inhibitory activity without any cytotoxicity under dark conditions. The intracellular accumulation and superoxide anion scavenging effect of rose bengal were at least partly involved in the inhibitory activity.

Effect of Leukotriene B4 on Enhancement of Superoxide Production Evoked by Formyl-Methionyl-Leucyl- Phenylalanine in Myeloid Differentiated HL-60 Cell$: Possible Involvement of Intracellular Calcium Influx and High Affinity Receptor for Leukotriene

Exposure of a human leukemic cell line HL-60 to 1 % dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) for 4 days induced myeloid differentiation. DMSO-differentiated HL-60 cells displayed high and low-affinity binding sites for leukotriene B4 (LTB4). The pretreatment of myeloid differentiated HL-60 cells with 1-10 nM LTB4 enhanced superoxide production evoked by 100 nM formyl-methionyl-leucylphenylalanine (fMLP) to 127...

A correlation between phorbol diester-induced protein phosphorylation and superoxide anion generation in HL-60 cells during granulocytic maturation.

As HL-60 cells matured along the granulocytic pathway, phorbol diester-induced superoxide anion production was compared to phorbol diester-induced protein phosphorylation using an in vitro phosphorylation technique. Maturation was induced by 0, 2, 4, or 6 days incubation with dimethyl sulfoxide (Me2SO). In 0 day Me2SO HL-60 cells, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate induced phosphorylation of prote...

P2X7 nucleotide receptor mediation of membrane pore formation and superoxide generation in human promyelocytes and neutrophils.

The P2X(7) receptor, which induces cation channel opening imparting significant permeability to Ca2+ and pore formation with changes in the plasma membrane potential, has been known to be rather restrictedly expressed in cells of the macrophage lineage including dendrites, mature macrophages, and microglial cells. However, we show here that the P2X(7) receptor is also expressed in cells of gran...

Modulation of transmembrane signalling in HL-60 granulocytes by tumour necrosis factor-alpha.

Differentiated HL-60 granulocytes were used to study the mechanism by which tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) enhances responses to N-formyl-methionyl-leucylphenylalanine (FMLP). Cultivation of differentiated HL-60 cells with 100 units of TNF/ml for 24 h resulted in a 3-fold increase in superoxide release and 4-fold increase in prostaglandin E2 production on stimulation with 1 microM-FMLP. On ...

Repression of rac2 mRNA expression by Anaplasma phagocytophila is essential to the inhibition of superoxide production and bacterial proliferation.

Anaplasma phagocytophila, the etiologic agent of human granulocytic ehrlichiosis, is an emerging bacterial pathogen that invades neutrophils and can be cultivated in HL-60 cells. Infected neutrophils and HL-60 cells fail to produce superoxide anion (O(2)(-)), which is partially attributable to the fact that A. phagocytophila inhibits transcription of gp91(phox), an integral component of NADPH o...
