Neisseria gonorrhoeae causes severe exudative urethritis. The exudates from infected individuals contain large numbers of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) with ingested gonococci. The fate of N. gonorrhoeae within PMN has been a topic of debate for years. In this study, we examined the interactions of N. gonorrhoeae with PMN adherent to surfaces as a system that better models events during cl...
Objectives: Steroids, used in preterm premature ruptureof membranes (pPROM), to reduce the risk of morbidity and mortality of the preterm neonate, impair the maternal polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN)-based immune system. In spite of combination with antibiotics, prenatal and postnatal bacterial infections of mother and child are frequent. This pilot study focuses on the influence of steroids i...
The complement-derived anaphylatoxin C5a and a putative analogue of bacterial chemotactic factor (N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanyl [fMLP]), as well as bacterial lipid A, all stimulate human granulocyte (PMN) adhesiveness and superoxide (O-2) production in a concentration-dependent manner. Since attachment of particulate matter to the PMN membrane is an early event in the triggering of res...
Jenny shows a large endometrial reaction after semen influx to the uterus with amount of polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) migrating into uterine lumen. PMN act as sperm selection mechanism through phagocytosis and NETosis (DNA extrudes and, together proteins, trap spermatozoa). While reduced percentage spermatozoa are phagocytosed by PMN, most found be attached neutrophil extracellular traps...
We investigated the effect of a candidate artificial blood substitute, Fluosol-DA (FDA), on human neutrophil function in a serum-free medium. In a 50% (vol/vol) mixture with polymorphonuclear cells (PMN), FDA had no effect on PMN viability, phagocytosis, superoxide anion generation, degranulation, or bactericidal activity. In striking contrast, the random migration and chemotaxis of PMN to both...
Although proteinase 3 (PR3) is known to have the potential to promote inflammation and injure tissues, the biologic forms and function of PR3 in polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) from healthy donors have received little attention. In this paper, we show that PMN contain 3.24 +/- SD 0.24 pg of PR3 per cell, and that the mean concentration of PR3 in azurophil granules of PMN is 13.4 mM. Low lev...
We recently reported that L-selectin expression increases on circulating polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) during active bone marrow release, which suggests that older cells in the circulation have lower levels of L-selectin than those recently released from the bone marrow. The present study was designed to test the hypothesis that L-selectin expression reduces on PMN as they age in the circu...
Neutrophil (polymorphonuclear leukocyte; PMN) inflammatory functions, including cell adhesion, diapedesis, and phagocytosis, are dependent on the mobilization and release of various intracellular granules/vesicles. In this study, we found that treating PMN with damnacanthal, a Ras family GTPase inhibitor, resulted in a specific release of secondary granules but not primary or tertiary granules ...
Cell surface antigens, such as CR3, Fc gamma RIII, cALLa and Leu 8 antigen, expressed on polymorphonuclear cells (PMN) in the peripheral blood (PB) are associated with certain functions of PMN. Functional alterations of PMN have been reported in some rheumatic diseases. In this study, therefore, the cell surface antigens were examined by 2-color flow-cytometry using monoclonal antibodies to cla...
CD47, a cell surface glycoprotein, plays an important role in modulating neutrophil (PMN) migration across endothelial and epithelial monolayers. Here we show that anti-CD47 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) delay PMN migration across collagen-coated filters or T84 epithelial monolayers toward the chemoattractant formylmethionylleucylphenylalanine (fMLP). Despite delayed transmigration by anti-CD47 ...
