Abstract
Protein kinase C (PKC) has been recognized to activate NADPH oxidase (PHOX). However, the interaction between PKC and PHOX in vivo remains elusive. Treatment with methamphetamine (MA) resulted in a selective increase in PKCδ expression out of PKC isoforms. PKCδ co-immunoprecipitated with p47phox, and facilitated phosphorylation and membrane translocation of p47phox. MA-induced increases in PHOX activity and reactive oxygen species were attenuated by knockout of p47phox or PKCδ. In addition, MA-induced impairments in the Nrf-2-related glutathione synthetic system were also mitigated by knockout of p47phox or PKCδ. Glutathione-immunoreactivity was co-localized in Iba-1-labeled microglial cells and in NeuN-labeled neurons, but not in GFAP-labeled astrocytes, reflecting the necessity for self-protection against oxidative stress by mainly microglia. Buthionine-sulfoximine, an inhibitor of glutathione biosynthesis, potentiated microglial activation and pro-apoptotic changes, leading to dopaminergic losses. These neurotoxic processes were attenuated by rottlerin, a pharmacological inhibitor of PKCδ, genetic inhibitions of PKCδ [i.e., PKCδ knockout mice (KO) and PKCδ antisense oligonucleotide (ASO)], or genetic inhibition of p47phox (i.e., p47phox KO or p47phox ASO). Rottlerin did not exhibit any additive effects against the protective activity offered by genetic inhibition of p47phox. Therefore, we suggest that PKCδ is a critical regulator for p47phox activation induced by MA, and that Nrf-2-dependent GSH induction via inhibition of PKCδ or p47phox, is important for dopaminergic protection against MA insult.

Abstract
Increasing evidence indicates that advanced glycation end products (AGEs) promote retinal alterations through oxidative stress. However, the pathways involved in AGE-induced generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in retinal cells are poorly defined. In the present study, we investigated the role of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (reduced form) (NADPH) oxidase in AGE-induced ROS intracellular generation and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression in bovine retinal endothelial cells (BRECs). Incubation of BRECs with 100 microg/mL AGEs increased ROS generation and VEGF expression in these cells. Treatment of the cells with the NADPH oxidase inhibitors, apocynin and diphenylene iodonium, inhibited these effects. In retinal endothelial cells exposed to AGEs, translocation of protein kinase C (PKC)-beta2 and p47phox was observed. Inhibition of PKC by treatment of the cells with calphostin C, GF10923X, and LY379196 totally suppressed AGE-mediated p47phox translocation and ROS generation. Incubation of BRECs with gliclazide inhibited AGE-induced PKC-beta2 and p47phox translocation and totally abrogated AGE-mediated ROS generation and VEGF expression. Overall, these results demonstrate that AGEs induce intracellular ROS generation and VEGF expression in retinal endothelial cells through a PKC-dependent activation of NADPH oxidase. Inhibition of retinal NADPH oxidase expression and ROS generated by this system provides a new potential mechanism by which gliclazide may affect retinal VEGF expression and exert a beneficial effect on diabetic retinopathy.

Abstract
Phospholipase D1 (PLD1) is a signal-transduction regulated enzyme which regulates several cell intrinsic processes including activation of NAPDH oxidase, which elevates intracellular H2O2. Several proteins have been reported to interact with PLD1 in resting cells. We sought to identify proteins that interact with PLD1 after phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) stimulation. A novel interaction with peroxiredoxin II (PrxII), an enzyme that eliminates cellular H2O2, which is a known stimulator of PLD1, was identified by PLD1-affinity pull-down and MS. PMA stimulation was confirmed to promote physical interaction between PLD1 and PrxII and to cause PLD1 and PrxII to colocalize subcellularly. Functional significance of the interaction was suggested by the observation that over-expression of PrxII specifically reduces the response of PLD1 to stimulation by H2O2. These results indicate that PrxII may have a signal-terminating role for PLD1 by being recruited to sites containing activated PLD1 after cellular stimulation involving production of H2O2.

Abstract
Our laboratory is interested in understanding the regulation of NADPH oxidase activity in human monocyte/macrophages. Protein kinase C (PKC) is reported to be involved in regulating the phosphorylation of NADPH oxidase components in human neutrophils; however, the regulatory roles of specific isoforms of PKC in phosphorylating particular oxidase components have not been determined. In this study calphostin C, an inhibitor for both novel PKC (including PKCdelta, -epsilon, -theta;, and -eta) and conventional PKC (including PKCalpha and -beta), inhibited both phosphorylation and translocation of p47phox, an essential component of the monocyte NADPH oxidase. In contrast, GF109203X, a selective inhibitor of classical PKC and PKCepsilon, did not affect the phosphorylation or translocation of p47phox, suggesting that PKCdelta, -theta;, or -eta is required. Furthermore, rottlerin (at doses that inhibit PKCdelta activity) inhibited the phosphorylation and translocation of p47phox. Rottlerin also inhibited O2 production at similar doses. In addition to pharmacological inhibitors, PKCdelta-specific antisense oligodeoxyribonucleotides were used. PKCdelta antisense oligodeoxyribonucleotides inhibited the phosphorylation and translocation of p47phox in activated human monocytes. We also show, using the recombinant p47phox-GST fusion protein, that p47phox can serve as a substrate for PKCdelta in vitro. Furthermore, lysate-derived PKCdelta from activated monocytes phosphorylated p47phox in a rottlerin-sensitive manner. Together, these data suggest that PKCdelta plays a pivotal role in stimulating monocyte NADPH oxidase activity through its regulation of the phosphorylation and translocation of p47phox.

Abstract
We studied differences between the NADPH oxidase activation pathways triggered by pervanadate, a protein tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), a protein kinase C activator, in guinea pig neutrophils. Previously, pervanadate has been shown to activate NADPH oxidase via the tyrosine kinase-dependent pathway (Yamaguchi et al. Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 323, 382-386, 1995). Both pervanadate and PMA induced superoxide anion (O-2) production, translocation of the 47-kDa protein component of the phagocyte oxidase (p47-phox) to the plasma membrane, and phosphorylation of p47-phox in the membrane. A selective protein kinase C inhibitor, GF 109203X, markedly inhibited PMA-induced O-2 production, p47-phox translocation, and p47-phox phosphorylation, but did not inhibit pervanadate-induced O-2 production and only slightly suppressed pervanadate-induced translocation and phosphorylation. These results demonstrate that pervanadate activates NADPH oxidase independently of protein kinase C. Phosphopeptide mapping of p47-phox revealed differences in the mechanism between pervanadate-induced and PMA-induced phosphorylation. Furthermore, some protein kinases which phosphorylate p47-phox-derived peptide are activated by pervanadate. These results suggest the existence of novel protein kinases responsible for the phosphorylation of p47-phox and the activation of these protein kinases by tyrosine kinase.

Abstract
The leukocyte NADPH oxidase catalyzes the reduction of oxygen to superoxide (O-2) at the expense of NADPH in phagocytes and B lymphocytes. The enzyme is dormant in resting cells but becomes active when the cells are exposed to appropriate stimuli. During oxidase activation, the highly basic cytosolic oxidase component p47(PHOX) becomes phosphorylated on several serines and migrates to the plasma membrane. We report here that p47(PHOX)-deficient B lymphoblasts expressing the p47(PHOX) S359A/S370A or p47(PHOX) S359K/S370K double mutation show dramatically reduced levels of enzyme activity and phosphorylation of p47(PHOX) as compared with the same cells expressing wild type p47(PHOX). In addition, these mutant p47(PHOX) proteins fails to translocate to the plasma membrane when the cells are stimulated. In contrast, normal phosphorylation and translocation are seen in mutants containing aspartate or glutamate at positions 359 and 370, but oxidase activity is still greatly reduced. These results imply that a negative charge at position 359 and/or 370 is sufficient to allow the phosphorylation and translocation of p47(PHOX) to take place but that features unique to a phosphorylated hydroxyamino acid are required to support O-2 production. These findings, plus those from an earlier study (Inanami, O., Johnson, J. L., McAdara, J. K., El Benna, J., Faust, L. P., Newburger, P. E., and Babior, B. M. (1998) J. Biol. Chem. 273, 9539-9543), suggest that oxidase activation requires 1) the sequential phosphorylation of at least two serines on p47(PHOX): Ser-359 or Ser-370, followed by Ser-303 or Ser-304; and 2) the translocation of p47(PHOX) to the membrane at some point after the first phosphorylation takes place.

Abstract
The leukocyte NADPH oxidase is an enzyme in phagocytes and B lymphocytes that when activated catalyzes the production of O-2 from oxygen and NADPH. During oxidase activation, serine residues in the C-terminal quarter of the oxidase component p47(PHOX) become extensively phosphorylated, the protein acquiring as many as 9 phosphate residues. In a study of 11 p47(PHOX) mutants, each containing an alanine instead of a serine at a single potential phosphorylation site, we found that all but S379A corrected the defect in O-2 production in Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-transformed p47(PHOX)-deficient B cells (Faust, L. P., El Benna, J., Babior, B. M., and Chanock, S. J. (1995) J. Clin. Invest. 96, 1499-1505). In particular, O-2 production was restored to these cells by the mutants S303A and S304A. Therefore, apart from serine 379, whose state of phosphorylation in the activated oxidase is unclear, no single potential phosphorylation site appeared to be essential for oxidase activation. We now report that the double mutant p47(PHOX) S303A/S304A was almost completely inactive when expressed in EBV-transformed p47(PHOX)-deficient B cells, even though it was expressed in normal amounts in the transfected cells and was able to translocate to the plasma membrane when the cells were stimulated. In contrast, the double mutant p47(PHOX) S303E/S304E was able to support high levels of O-2 production by EBV-transformed p47(PHOX)-deficient B cells. The surprising discovery that the double mutant S303K/S304K was also able to support considerable O-2 production suggests either that the effect of phosphorylation is related to the increase in hydrophilicity around serines 303 and 304 or that activation involves the formation of a metal bridge between the phosphorylated serines and another region of the protein.

Abstract
The respiratory burst oxidase of phagocytes and B lymphocytes catalyzes the reduction of oxygen to O2- at the expense of NADPH. Dormant in resting cells, the oxidase is activated by exposing the cells to appropriate stimuli. During activation, p47phox, a cytosolic oxidase subunit, becomes extensively phosphorylated on a number of serines located between S303 and S379. To determine whether this phosphorylation is necessary for oxidase activation, we examined phorbol-elicited oxidase activity in EBV-transformed B lymphoblasts deficient in p47phox after transfection with plasmids expressing various S-->A mutants of p47phox. The mutant containing S-->A mutations involving all serines between S303 and S379 [S(303-379)A] was not phosphorylated, did not translocate to plasma membrane during activation and was almost devoid of function. As to individual serines, S379 was of special interest because (a) p47 phox S379 was phosphorylated in phorbol-activated lymphoblasts expressing wild-type p47phox, and (b) p47phox S379A failed to translocate to the membrane, and was as functionless as p47phox S(303-379)A; other single S-->A mutations had little effect on oxidase activity. These findings suggest that the phosphorylation of S379 may be important for oxidase activation in whole cells.

Abstract
In the present investigation, a method of studying the maximal rate of superoxide anion (O2.-) production in immobilised human neutrophils using a microtiter plate technique has been developed. The rate of O2.- production was determined from the rate of reduction of cytochrome (III) C, studied as the increase in absorbance at 550 nm. The protein kinase C activator, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, was used to stimulate O2.- production. Neutrophils were evenly immobilised as a monolayer to microtiter culture plates to provide a reproducible exposure to the medium. Phorbol ester stimulated O2.- production was inhibited by staurosporine, a well-known inhibitor of protein kinase C, and by diphenylene iodonium, a potent NADPH-oxidase inhibitor, with IC50-values in this assay of 20 and 220 nm, respectively. The extracellularly produced O2.- was removed by superoxide dismutase with a half maximal effect of 0.6 microgram/mL. The maximal production rate of O2.- could therefore be estimated by addition of 20 micrograms/mL superoxide dismutase. Several antioxidants, including butylated hydroxytoluene, nordihydroguairetic acid, probucol and alpha-tocopherol, were studied and showed neither an effect on O2.- production nor a scavenging effect. This new method was highly reproducible, and the continuous measurement of O2.- production was very useful for validating the effect of inhibitors. The developed microtiter technique using immobilised cells has a large capacity and allows different compounds to be tested under comparable conditions, since they are exposed to the cells in a similar way. This is also the first test model which describes O2.- production as the maximal rate of cytochrome (III) C reduction.

Abstract
We tested the hypothesis that lysophosphatidylcholine (lyso-PC) could activate protein kinase C in intact vascular segments and sought to examine some of the physiological consequences of this activation. In segments of rabbit aorta, the patterns of protein phosphorylation determined by two-dimensional electrophoresis stimulated by lyso-PC and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) were similar. Activation of protein kinase C can stimulate superoxide anion (O2-) production in other tissues, and we found that lyso-PC-treated rabbit aortas produced twofold more O2- than control vessels. Calphostin C, a potent and specific inhibitor of protein kinase C, attenuated O2- production in lyso-PC-treated vessels but had no effect in control vessels. The effect of lyso-PC on O2- production was mimicked by TPA. In separate bioassay studies, release of the endothelium-derived vascular relaxing factor (EDRF) quantified by the response of detector vessels was markedly impaired after exposure of donor rabbit aortic segments to lyso-PC. After incubation with calphostin C, EDRF release in response to acetylcholine from lyso-PC-treated donor vessels was restored significantly. Thus, lyso-PC can activate protein kinase C in intact vessels, leading to an increase in O2- production. Activation of protein kinase C by lyso-PC may also play a role in altering the release of EDRF in response to acetylcholine. Increased O2- production in response to lyso-PC may have important consequences in the atherogenic process.

Abstract
Local production of reactive oxygen intermediates, e.g., superoxide anion, by tumor promoter-stimulated inflammatory macrophages (MPs) may contribute significantly to tumor development in classical models of two-stage chemical-induced carcinogenesis in murine skin. In the studies reported herein, peritoneal MPs elicited from phorbol-ester-sensitive SENCAR mice demonstrated a time- and dose-dependent release of superoxide anion (4-6 nmol/10(6) cells) when stimulated by 200 nM 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) in vitro; MP superoxide response was significantly inhibited (50-70%) by preincubation with 40 microM 1-(5-isoquinolinyl-sulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7), a protein-kinase inhibitor. Alternatively, TPA-stimulated MPs derived from relatively resistant B6C3F1 mice generated negligible superoxide under the same conditions. A similar strain-dependent induction of superoxide was observed when MPs were stimulated with thapsigargin (TG), a tumor promoter previously shown to act independently of protein kinase C (PKC). TG-stimulated SENCAR MPs released a significant amount of superoxide (2-3 nmol/10(6) cells) that was not inhibited by H-7; MPs from B6C3F1 mice demonstrated negligible stimulation by TG. Preincubation of SENCAR MPs with 100 microM dibromoacetophenone, an inhibitor of phospholipase A2, completely suppressed the superoxide induced by TPA and TG stimulation. Like TPA, 50 microM 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol, a diacylglycerol analogue and PKC activator, also induced a significant amount of superoxide from SENCAR MPs only. In parallel with the superoxide findings, TPA and TG stimulated significantly greater [3H]arachidonic acid release from prelabeled SENCAR MPs (a 32% and 48% increase, respectively, over unstimulated controls) relative to MPs from B6C3F1 mice. Two-dimensional gel-electrophoretic analysis indicated that TPA-induced phosphorylation of a 47-kDa protein (a presumed substrate for PKC previously linked to NADPH oxidase activation in guinea pig and human polymorphonuclear leukocytes) occurred in MPs from both SENCAR and B6C3F1 mice. Therefore, arachidonic acid production may be a common biochemical pathway by which phorbol-ester--and non-phorbol-ester--type tumor promoters activate MPs in SENCAR mice; such a response may be "permissive" for additive (or synergistic) interactions with PKC-driven signal pathways.

Abstract
In psoriatic patients, anthralin is known to attenuate lesional inflammation, but often generates perilesional dermatitis. This phenomenon is well reflected by the contrasting action of anthralin on human leukocytes. The release of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is inhibited by anthralin in phorbol ester-activated leukocytes, whereas anthralin directly induces this cellular response in unstimulated cells. In order to elaborate further the underlying mechanisms, we compared the kinetics of anthralin and different well-characterized stimuli, including the phorbol ester, phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate, in this test system. Compared with standard stimuli, anthralin only marginally induced the release of ROS from human leukocytes and displayed different kinetics. Protein kinase C (PKC), the major cellular phorbol ester receptor, is considered to be involved in the regulation of this cellular response. Furthermore, its involvement in the pathophysiology of psoriasis has been suggested. Therefore, we also investigated the effects of anthralin on purified PKC. Anthralin was found to inhibit the enzyme activity in a dose-dependent manner but not to display any stimulatory effects. The present results provide first evidence that the therapeutic activity of anthralin, at least in part, might be mediated by inhibition of PKC.

Abstract
Conditions for superoxide anion (O2-) production were examined in guinea pig polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL). When PMNL were suspended in the hypotonic medium, O2- production was significantly enhanced by concurrent treatment with low concentrations of 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol (OAG), a cell-permeable protein kinase C activator. Such hypotonicity or OAG alone had little effect on the production. Other protein kinase C activators also markedly enhanced O2- production in combination with hypotonicity, but not in the isotonic medium. Protein kinase C inhibitors, H-7 and staurosporine, dose-dependently inhibited the production. These observations indicate that protein kinase C participates in such synergistic O2- production with hypotonicity. Phosphorylation of 46-kDa protein(s), which was commonly enhanced in paralleled with an activation of NADPH oxidase in guinea pig PMNL, was increased by treatment with 10 microM OAG, but the phosphorylation was little altered by hypotonic treatment. Intracellular calcium concentration, arachidonate release, and 1,2-diacylglycerol and phosphoinositide concentrations were slightly altered by hypotonic treatment. A change in phosphatidate (PA) production in PMNL was induced by hypotonic treatment either by itself or in combination with OAG treatment. These results suggest that the combination of cell membrane changes by hypotonic treatment accompanied by the increase in PA and 46-kDa protein phosphorylation by protein kinase C provides the conditions required for a marked increase in O2- production. Hypotonicity may be a good tool for studying the mechanism of priming in the activation of NADPH oxidase.

Abstract
Various studies have suggested that calmodulin (CaM) is involved in the pathophysiology of psoriasis. Protein kinase C (PKC) is also accepted as playing a regulatory role in cell proliferation as well as in inflammatory processes. Therefore, we investigated the effects of the known CaM antagonist tiflucarbine (BAY/TVX P 4495) on two cellular systems related to the major clinical symptoms of psoriasis: proliferation of cultured human keratinocytes (HaCa T cell line) and release of reactive oxygen species (ROS) from human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL). Tiflucarbine inhibited both cellular responses in a dose dependent manner. Furthermore, tiflucarbine directly affected PKC, and may thus be considered to be a dual PKC/CaM antagonist with putative antipsoriatic activity. The effects of tiflucarbine on the different parameters were compared with those of the structurally unrelated dual PKC/CaM inhibitor W-7 and those of the potent PKC inhibitor staurosporine. The potencies of all three compounds were found to be in the same range as their PKC-inhibiting potency. Our data indicate that PKC, rather than CaM, may play a regulatory role in the release of ROS as well as in keratinocyte proliferation. Therefore, inhibition of PKC in general might have a therapeutic benefit in psoriasis.

Abstract
NADPH oxidase activity in a membrane fraction prepared from phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-stimulated guinea pig polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL) was inhibited by positively charged myristylamine. The inhibitory effect of myristylamine was significantly suppressed by simultaneous addition of a negatively charged fatty acid, such as myristic acid. However, the suppression by myristylamine was not sufficiently restored when myristic acid was added later. On the other hand, pretreatment of PMA-stimulated PMNL with glutaraldehyde, a protein crosslinking reagent, stabilized NADPH oxidase activity against inhibition by myristylamine, but not against that by p-chloromercuribenzenesulfonic acid. In a cell-free system of reconstituted plasma membrane and cytosolic fractions prepared from unstimulated PMNL, arachidonic acid-stimulated NADPH oxidase activity was also inhibited by myristylamine. During the activation of NADPH oxidase by PMA in intact PMNL and by arachidonic acid in the cell-free system, cytosolic activation factor(s) translocated to plasma membranes. The bound cytosolic activation factor(s) was released from the membranes by myristylamine, accompanied by a loss of NADPH oxidase activity. It is plausible from these results that the inhibitory effect of alkylamine on NADPH oxidase is due to induction of the decoupling and/or dissociation of the cytosolic activation component(s) from the activated NADPH oxidase complex by increments of positive charges in the membranes, and that the glutaraldehyde treatment prevents the dissociation of component(s).

Abstract
Neutrophils stimulated with 4 beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate release large quantities of superoxide (O2-) and exhibit an intense phosphorylation of two proteins with molecular masses of approx. 47 and 49 kDa. Treatment of unstimulated cells with antagonists of protein kinase C (e.g., staurosporine; 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7)) is known to inhibit both of these phenomena upon stimulation. These antagonists of PKC also cause a rapid cessation of O2- release when added to cells that are already stimulated. In this paper, we report that the addition of staurosporine or H-7 to stimulated neutrophils resulted in a rapid loss of 32P from both the 47 and the 49 kDa phosphoprotein bands, as detected by autoradiography. This suggests that these two proteins may be regulated by a continual cycle of phosphorylation and dephosphorylation in the stimulated cell, with the phosphorylation reactions predominating, or undergo a rapid degradation subsequent to phosphorylation. Either explanation is consistent with the view that protein kinase C activity is necessary to both initiate and maintain O2- production in neutrophils stimulated with tumor promoters.

Abstract
The capacity to generate superoxide anion (O2-) can be induced in U937 cells by various agents known to cause myeloid cell differentiation. Other reported differentiation events include diminished cell proliferation and the induction by gamma-interferon (IFN gamma) of Fc receptors for immunoglobulin G1 (Fc gamma RI). In this study, we differentiated U937 cells and high Fc gamma RI-expression mutants of U937 cells by treating them with IFN gamma. We compared the time courses over which surface Fc gamma RI became maximal, NADPH oxidase activity was induced, and the antiproliferative effect of IFN gamma was detected. Oxidase activity was measured by stimulating cells with PMA or by activating surface Fc gamma RI using aggregated human IgG1 or second antibody crosslinking of mAb 32/Fc gamma RI complexes. We found that IFN gamma in the absence of additional lymphokines induced high levels of oxidase activity in maximally differentiated U937 cells with even higher levels in the fully differentiated high-Fc gamma RI expression mutants (greater than 8 nmoles/10(6) cells/min for A12.13 cells). Over the course of differentiation, maximal induced levels of Fc gamma RI were reached after 1 to 2 days of IFN gamma treatment, prior to the antiproliferative effect of the lymphokine. In contrast, oxidase activity was induced after a lag of approximately 2 days, becoming maximal only after 4 to 6 days of IFN gamma treatment. This comparison of the induction of Fc gamma RI with that of oxidase activity triggered through Fc gamma RI indicated that the rapid increase of surface receptor was not accompanied by a completion of the pathway of Fc gamma RI-mediated oxidase activity. However, the time courses of induction detected by PMA and Fc gamma RI-agonists were coincident suggesting that the development of oxidative capacity could be due to the induction of components required by both the PMA- and surface receptor-mediated pathways. There are several oxidase components that are known to be IFN gamma-inducible, such as the oxidase flavoprotein, a b558 cytochrome peptide, and oxidase-requiring cytosolic components, and it is possible that one or a set of these components could be the limiting factor(s) for IFN gamma-induced oxidase activity.

Abstract
Neutrophils and other phagocytic cells of the immune system possess a superoxide-generating oxidase system which is essential for the efficient killing of microbes. The system is activated by a wide variety of stimuli, some of which operate through pathways involving protein kinase C (PKC), while others appear not to. The PKC-dependent pathway is probably the major signal transduction route for most of the stimuli. Alterations in cellular Ca2+ and diglyceride levels can have a pronounced stimulatory effect on this pathway by their ability to synergistically activate PKC. This review discusses PKC, the different interactions of this kinase with the plasmalemma that are important in superoxide production, the synergy between Ca2+ and diglyceride, and the nature of the phosphoproteins involved. Evidence supporting the existence of the PKC-independent pathway is also reviewed.

Abstract
Treatment of guinea pig polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL) with various fatty acids elicited superoxide anion (O2-) production and an increase in intracellular Ca2+ [( Ca2+]i). Both responses, however, were seldom observed when PMNL were treated at lower concentrations. But, simultaneous addition of 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol (OAG), a protein kinase C activator, caused an increase in O2- production even at the lower concentrations of fatty acids. In contrast to the synergism in O2- production, [Ca2+]i remained at almost the basal level irrespective of the presence of OAG. Among saturated fatty acids, those with carbon numbers of 14 to 18 were most effective in stimulating O2- production in combination with OAG. Unsaturated fatty acids with a carbon number of 18 were almost equally effective irrespective of the number of double bonds.

Abstract
Neutrophils stimulated with activators of protein kinase C (i.e., 4 beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate; sn-1,2-dioctanoylglycerol) exhibit a dramatic, dose-dependent incorporation of 32P[Pi] into two proteins with molecular weights of ca. 47 and 49kDa. Proteins of the same molecular weights are also labelled when the cells are stimulated with a chemotactic peptide. However, with the latter stimulus, labelling of the 47kDa species is transient whereas that of the 49kDa entity persists. Labelling of both proteins always accompanied the release of O2-stimulated by these agents. The kinetics of labelling are compatible with the involvement of both phosphoproteins in the stimulation of these cells.

Abstract
Contrary to previous reports by other investigators, protein kinase inhibitors C-I and H-7 (at 10(-6)M) caused a significant inhibition of fmet-leu-phe-stimulated superoxide (O2-) generation in human neutrophils. The observed inhibition of O2- production was a highly temperature-sensitive event and occurred only when C-I or H-7 was added to neutrophils at 37 degrees C. When the temperature at which C-I or H-7 added to neutrophils was varied between 16 degrees C to 37 degrees C, no significant inhibition of fmet-leu-phe-stimulated O2- production by C-I or H-7 was observed even at 35 degrees C. However, when added at 37 degrees C, both the maximal rate and the final extent of fmet-leu-phe induced O2- production were significantly inhibited (greater than 50%) by 10(-6)M C-I or H-7. A relatively weaker protein kinase C antagonist, HA1004, was not inhibitory under identical experimental conditions. In contrast, inhibition of the PMA-induced O2- generation by C-I or H-7 was not found to be similarly temperature-dependent. These results indicate that some temperature-dependent cellular event(s) is critically involved in the observed inhibition of fmet-leu-phe-induced O2- generation by C-I or H-7, and suggest a role for protein kinase C in the signal transduction process.

Abstract
The exposure of 32P-loaded neutrophils to any of a variety of activating agents induces changes in the levels of phosphorylation of a large number of phosphoproteins. The uptake of phosphate by one set of phosphoproteins in particular, a family whose members migrate at Mr 48K with near neutral pI values, appears to be closely related to the activation of the respiratory burst oxidase, the O2--producing enzyme of phagocytes that is responsible for the generation of microbicidal oxidants by these cells. Evidence for the relationship between the phosphorylation of these proteins and the activation of the respiratory burst oxidase has been furnished by kinetic studies as well as by studies on protein phosphorylation in neutrophils from patients with chronic granulomatous disease, a group of inherited disorders affecting this oxidase. The details of this relationship are obscure, although the evidence suggests that these phosphoproteins act in substoichiometric amounts with respect to the oxidase.

Abstract
The phosphorylation of 46K protein(s), which was generally observed in parallel with an activation of NADPH oxidase of guinea pig polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL) in our previous studies (N. Okamura et al. (1984) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 228, 270-277; T. Ohtsuka et al. (1987) J. Biochem. 101, 897-903), was increased by treatment with 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol (OAG), even at low concentrations at which both superoxide anion (O2-) production and arachidonate release were little induced. On the other hand, exposure of PMNL to low concentrations of a calcium ionophore, A23187, stimulated arachidonate release without causing substantial O2- production and increase in phosphorylation of 46K protein(s). Simultaneous addition of the above-mentioned suboptimal concentrations of both OAG and A23187 markedly enhanced O2- production in PMNL. This enhancing effect may be ascribable to the increase in the phosphorylation of 46K protein(s) and arachidonate release, which are induced by the addition of OAG and A23187, respectively. Another arachidonate-releasing agent, N-formyl-methionylleucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP), also stimulated O2- production in accordance with an increase in the arachidonate release and protein phosphorylation. Simultaneous addition of OAG significantly enhanced the FMLP-induced O2- production, presumably by maintaining the 46K protein phosphorylation which would facilitate the effect of arachidonate released by FMLP. Thus, the present results suggest that phosphorylation of 46K protein(s) and arachidonate release synergistically induce O2- production in PMNL, although either of them alone hardly induces the production.

Abstract
The mechanisms regulating activation of the respiratory burst enzyme, NADPH oxidase, of human neutrophils (PMN) are not yet understood, but protein phosphorylation may play a role. We have utilized a defect in a cytosolic factor required for NADPH oxidase activation observed in two patients with the autosomal recessive form of chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) to examine the role of protein phosphorylation in activation of NADPH oxidase in a cell-free system. NADPH oxidase could be activated by SDS in reconstitution mixtures of cytosolic and membrane subcellular fractions from normal PMN, and SDS also enhanced phosphorylation of at least 16 cytosolic and 14 membrane-associated proteins. However, subcellular fractions from CGD PMN plus SDS expressed little NADPH oxidase activity, and phosphorylation of a 48-kD protein(s) was selectively defective. The membrane fraction from CGD cells could be activated for NADPH oxidase when mixed with normal cytosol and phosphorylation of the 48-kD protein(s) was restored. In contrast, the membrane fraction from normal cells expressed almost no NADPH oxidase activity when mixed with CGD cytosol, and phosphorylation of the 48-kD protein(s) was again markedly decreased. Protein kinase C (PKC) activity in PMN from the two patients appeared to be normal, suggesting that a deficiency of PKC is not the cause of the defective 48-kD protein phosphorylation and that the cytosolic factor is not PKC. These results demonstrate that the cytosolic factor required for activation of NADPH oxidase also regulates phosphorylation of a specific protein, or family of proteins, at 48 kD. Although the nature of this protein(s) is still unknown, it may be related to the functional and phosphorylation defects present in CGD PMN and to the activation of NADPH oxidase in the cell-free system.

Abstract
The formation of oxygen-derived free radicals by the phagocytes (neutrophils, eosinophils, monocytes and macrophages) is catalysed by a membrane-bound NADPH oxidase which is dormant in resting cells and becomes activated during phagocytosis or following interaction of the cells with suitable soluble stimulants. This enzyme is under investigation in many laboratories but its molecular structure remains to be clarified. Possible components such as flavoproteins, cytochrome b558, and quinones have been proposed on the basis of enzyme purification studies, effects of inhibitors, kinetic properties and analysis of genetic defects of the oxidase. An extensive discussion of the evidence for the participation of these constituents is reported. On the basis of the available information on the structure and the catalytic properties of the NADPH oxidase, a series of possible models of the electron-transport chain from NADPH to O2 is presented. Finally, the triggering mechanism of the respiratory burst is discussed, with particular reference to the stimulus-response coupling and the final modification(s) of the oxidase (phosphorylation, assembly, change of lipid environment, etc.) which are involved in its activation.

Abstract
Treatment of guinea pig polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL) with arachidonate at concentrations of less than 20 microM induced slight stimulation of superoxide anion (O2-) production with little enhancement of the phosphorylation of the 46K protein(s). The stimulation of the phosphorylation of those protein(s) has been observed in parallel with an activation of NADPH oxidase in our previous studies (N. Okamura et al. (1984) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 228, 270-277; T. Ohtsuka et al. (1986) Biochem. Biophys. Acta 888, 332-337; T. Ohtsuka et al. (1987) J. Biochem. 101, 897-903). On the other hand, the phosphorylation of the same protein(s) was increased by the treatment of PMNL with 10 microM 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol (OAG), a permeable diacylglycerol, with little change in O2- production. Treatment of PMNL with a combination of such low concentrations of arachidonate and OAG, induced marked increase in O2- production in accordance with the increase in the phosphorylation of 46K protein(s) which was probably due to OAG action. Thus, it is likely that this protein phosphorylation is a prerequisite or regulatory to the stimulation of the O2- production by arachidonate in PMNL.
