Slow moving blood flow and changes in flow direction, e.g., negative wall shear stress, can cause increased superoxide (O2(·-)) production in vascular endothelial cells. The mechanism by which shear stress increases O2(·-) production, however, is not well established. We tested the hypothesis that actin depolymerization, which occurs during flow reversal, mediates O2(·-) production in vascular ...
Neutrophils generate microbicidal oxidants through activation of a multicomponent enzyme called NADPH oxidase. During activation, the cytosolic NADPH oxidase components (p47, p67, p40, and Rac2) translocate to the membranes, where they associate with flavocytochrome b558, which is composed of gp91/NOX2 and p22, to form the active system. During neutrophil stimulation, p47, p67, p40, and p22 are...
The superoxide-forming nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate reduced (NADPH) oxidase of human phagocytes comprises membrane-bound and cytosolic proteins, which, upon cell activation, assemble on the plasma membrane to form the active enzyme. Patients with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) are defective in one of the phagocyte oxidase (phox) components, p47-phox or p67-phox, which reside...
Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) triggers activation of cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2) and then enhancing the synthesis of prostaglandin (PG) in inflammatory diseases. However, the detailed mechanisms of TNF-α induced cPLA2 expression were not fully defined in human pulmonary alveolar epithelial cells (HPAEpiCs). We found that TNF-α-stimulated increases in cPLA2 mRNA (5.2 folds) and protein ...
Nox3, a member of the superoxide-producing NADPH oxidase (Nox) family, participates in otoconia formation in mouse inner ears, which is required for perception of balance and gravity. The activity of other Nox enzymes such as gp91(phox)/Nox2 and Nox1 is known to absolutely require both an organizer protein (p47(phox) or Noxo1) andanactivatorprotein (p67(phox) or Noxa1); for the p47(phox)-depend...
Recent studies have demonstrated that reactive oxygen species (ROS) mediate myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) and angiogenesis via the mitogen-activated protein kinases and the serine-threonine kinase Akt/protein kinase B pathways. NADPH oxidases are major sources of ROS in endothelial cells and cardiomyocytes. In the present study, we investigated the role of NADPH oxidase-derived ROS in h...
The process of fertilization is critically dependent on the mutual recognition of gametes and in Plasmodium, the male gamete surface protein P48/45 is vital to this process. This protein belongs to a family of 10 structurally related proteins, the so called 6-cys family. To identify the role of additional members of this family in Plasmodium fertilisation, we performed genetic and functional an...
Fungal gliotoxin (GT) is a potent inhibitor of the O(2)(-)-generating NADPH oxidase of neutrophils. We reported that GT-treated neutrophils fail to phosphorylate p47(phox), a step essential for the enzyme activation, because GT prevents the colocalization of protein kinase C betaII with p47(phox) on the membrane. However, it remains unanswered whether GT directly affects any of NADPH oxidase co...
