Neutrophil activation may play an important role in the pathogenesis of respiratory disease in Burkholderia cepacia-colonized cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. As bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) are potent immunostimulatory molecules, we investigated the role of B. cepacia LPS in neutrophil activation processes. LPS extracted from a highly transmissible and virulent strain of B. cepacia (J2315...
Neutrophils are the first line of cellular defense in response to infections and inflammatory injuries. However, neutrophil activation and accumulation into tissues trigger tissue damage due to release of a plethora of toxic oxidants and proteases, a cause of acute lung injury (ALI). Despite its clinical importance, the molecular regulation of neutrophil migration is poorly understood. The smal...
Caspase-3-mediated spontaneous death in neutrophils is a prototype of programmed cell death and is critical for modulating physiopathological inflammatory responses; however, the underlying regulatory pathways remain ill defined. Here we determined that in aging neutrophils, the cleavage and activation of caspase-3 is independent of the canonical caspase-8- or caspase-9-mediated pathway. Instea...
Integrin-mediated adhesion serves as a powerful costimulus for neutrophil activation. Clustering of integrins at the leukocyte membrane by interaction with surface-bound ligands (extracellular matrix proteins or endothelial cell counter-receptors) leads to a number of signaling events that culminate in actin cytoskeletal rearrangement and neutrophil functional responses such as migration, degra...
NADPH oxidase is a crucial enzyme in mediating antimicrobial host defense and in regulating inflammation. Patients with chronic granulomatous disease, an inherited disorder of NADPH oxidase in which phagocytes are defective in generation of reactive oxidant intermediates (ROIs), suffer from life-threatening bacterial and fungal infections. The mechanisms by which NADPH oxidase mediate host defe...
