Abstract
Sodium accumulates in the interstitium and promotes inflammation through poorly defined mechanisms. We describe a pathway by which sodium enters dendritic cells (DCs) through amiloride-sensitive channels including the alpha and gamma subunits of the epithelial sodium channel and the sodium hydrogen exchanger 1. This leads to calcium influx via the sodium calcium exchanger, activation of protein kinase C (PKC), phosphorylation of p47phox, and association of p47phox with gp91phox. The assembled NADPH oxidase produces superoxide with subsequent formation of immunogenic isolevuglandin (IsoLG)-protein adducts. DCs activated by excess sodium produce increased interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and promote T cell production of cytokines IL-17A and interferon gamma (IFN-γ). When adoptively transferred into naive mice, these DCs prime hypertension in response to a sub-pressor dose of angiotensin II. These findings provide a mechanistic link between salt, inflammation, and hypertension involving increased oxidative stress and IsoLG production in DCs.

Abstract
Neutrophils are widely recognized to play an important role in acute inflammatory responses, and recent evidence has expanded their role to modulating chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and microbicidal compounds released from neutrophils that are recruited to the site of inflammation contribute to the pathogenesis of multiple inflammation-associated diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, atherosclerosis, and hepatitis. Marine organisms are a valuable source of bioactive compounds with potential for industrial and pharmaceutical application. Marine natural products that inhibit neutrophil activation could be used as drugs for the treatment of inflammatory diseases. Numerous studies investigating marine natural products have reported novel anti-inflammatory agents. Nevertheless, the detailed mechanisms underlying their actions, which could facilitate our understanding of the molecular events occurring in neutrophils, have not been reported in most of the associated research studies. Therefore, in this review, we will present marine products that inhibit neutrophil-associated inflammation. Furthermore, we will be limiting the detailed discussion to agents with well-investigated molecular targets.

A novel receptor cross-talk between the ATP receptor P2Y2 and formyl peptide receptors reactivates desensitized neutrophils to produce superoxide. Exp Cell Res 2014; 323:209-217.

Abstract
Neutrophils express several G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and they cross regulate each other. We described a novel cross-talk mechanism in neutrophils, by which signals generated by the receptor for ATP (P2Y2) reactivate desensitized formyl peptide receptors (FPRs) so that these ligand-bound inactive FPRs resume signaling. At the signaling level, the cross-talk was unidirectional, i.e., P2Y2 ligation reactivated FPR, but not vice versa and was sensitive to the phosphatase inhibitor calyculinA. Further, we show that the cross talk between P2Y2 and FPR bypassed cytosolic Ca(2+) transients and did not rely on the actin cytoskeleton. In summary, our data demonstrate a novel cross-talk mechanism that results in reactivation of desensitized FPRs and, an amplification of the neutrophil response to ATP.

Reactivation of desensitized formyl peptide receptors by platelet activating factor: a novel receptor cross talk mechanism regulating neutrophil superoxide anion production. PLoS One 2013; 8:e60169.

Abstract
Neutrophils express different chemoattractant receptors of importance for guiding the cells from the blood stream to sites of inflammation. These receptors communicate with one another, a cross talk manifested as hierarchical, heterologous receptor desensitization. We describe a new receptor cross talk mechanism, by which desensitized formyl peptide receptors (FPRdes) can be reactivated. FPR desensitization is induced through binding of specific FPR agonists and is reached after a short period of active signaling. The mechanism that transfers the receptor to a non-signaling desensitized state is not known, and a signaling pathway has so far not been described, that transfers FPRdes back to an active signaling state. The reactivation signal was generated by PAF stimulation of its receptor (PAFR) and the cross talk was uni-directional. LatrunculinA, an inhibitor of actin polymerization, induced a similar reactivation of FPRdes as PAF while the phosphatase inhibitor CalyculinA inhibited reactivation, suggesting a role for the actin cytoskeleton in receptor desensitization and reactivation. The activated PAFR could, however, reactivate FPRdes also when the cytoskeleton was disrupted prior to activation. The receptor cross talk model presented prophesies that the contact on the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane that blocks signaling between the G-protein and the FPR is not a point of no return; the receptor cross-talk from the PAFRs to the FPRdes initiates an actin-independent signaling pathway that turns desensitized receptors back to a signaling state. This represents a novel mechanism for amplification of neutrophil production of reactive oxygen species.

Abstract
TPCK (tosylphenylalanylchloromethane), first discovered as a serine protease inhibitor, has been described to affect in diverse systems a number of physiological events probably unrelated to its antiprotease effect, such as proliferation, apoptosis and tumour formation. In the present study, we focus on its inhibition of the neutrophil respiratory burst, an important element of non-specific immunological defence. The superoxide anion-producing enzyme, NADPH oxidase, is quiescent in resting cells. Upon cell stimulation, the redox component, membrane-bound flavocytochrome b558, is activated when the cytosolic factors (p47phox, p67phox and p40phox, as well as the small GTPase Rac) associate with it after translocating to the membrane. This requires the phosphorylation of several p47phox serine residues. The signal transduction events leading to enzyme activation are not completely understood. In the past, the use of diverse protease inhibitors suggested that proteases were involved in NADPH oxidase activation. We suggested previously that TPCK could prevent enzyme activation by the phorbol ester PMA, not due to inhibition of a protease, but possibly to inhibition of the cytosolic factor translocation [Chollet-Przednowed and Lederer (1993) Eur. J. Biochem. 218, 83-93]. In the present work, we show that TPCK, when added to cells before PMA, prevents p47phox phosphorylation and hence its translocation; moreover, when PMA-stimulated cells are incubated with TPCK, p47phox is dephosphorylated and dissociates from the membrane. These results are in line with previous suggestions that the respiratory burst is the result of a series of continuous phosphorylation and dephosphorylation events. They suggest that TPCK leads indirectly to activation of a phosphatase or inactivation of a kinase, and provide the first clue towards understanding the steps leading to its inhibition of NADPH oxidase activation.

Abstract
AIM To study the effect of IL-5 priming on the PMA-induced oxidative metabolism of blood eosinophils from allergic patients and healthy controls, during pollen exposure. METHODS Twenty birch pollen allergic patients with seasonal symptoms of rhinitis or rhinitis plus asthma were studied during the birch pollen season of Sweden. Eosinophils were purified to > 95% by Percoll gradients followed by the MACS system. Oxidative metabolism was measured by a lucigenin enhanced chemiluminescence (CL) assay. Eosinophils were primed with IL-5 and subsequently stimulated with PMA. The signal transduction mechanisms of IL-5 priming were studied using the MEK inhibitor PD 98059, the PkC inhibitors Staurosporine, Ro 318220, Gö 6983 and the PI3kinase inhibitor Wortmannin. RESULTS During the season, the eosinophils from the allergic patients showed a reduced t(1/2)rise compared to the non-allergic controls (P = 0.019) after stimulation. IL-5 reduced the total PMA CL response both in control and patients' cells (P = 0.012 and 0.0054 resp.), whereas it primed it in terms of the t(1/2)rise of the curves, in both groups (P = 0.012 and 0.0015 resp.). The PMA-induced CL reactions were inhibited by PD 98059, all PkC-inhibitors and Wortmannin. IL-5 priming counteracted only the MEK inhibition significantly. CONCLUSIONS Blood eosinophils from allergic patients are primed in vivo, as compared to eosinophils from non-allergic controls, during a pollen season. Interleukin-5 primes equally the PMA-induced oxidative metabolism of human eosinophils from healthy or allergic subjects. The mechanism of IL-5 priming after PMA stimulation of oxygen radical production is MEK independent.

Abstract
GTPgammaS activates the NADPH oxidase and this activity declines rapidly with time after preexposure to streptolysin O. This was not due to loss of p47(phox), p67(phox), or Rac. To identify the component(s) leaking out of the permeabilized cell responsible for loss of activity, a GTPgammaS-dependent reconstitution assay was established. Neutrophil cytosol was subjected to chromatographic fractionation steps for purification of the minimum fraction required to restore activity. The reconstitution of the GTPgammaS-stimulated activity was dependent on ATP. The inhibitors staurosporine and calphostin C greatly reduced the activity in the reconstitution assay, implicating the involvement of a protein kinase C (PKC) pathway. PKC isoforms beta and delta were eliminated as the active factors in the most pure reconstitution fraction. With this novel cell-based reconstitution assay, we have identified the requirement for a protein kinase, or its substrate, for the restoration of GTPgammaS activation of the NADPH oxidase.

Abstract
Activation of the neutrophil NADPH oxidase by either the bacterial peptide fMLP or phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) is partially suppressed by SB 203580, a specific inhibitor of the MAP kinase family member, SAPK2/p38. The concentration of SB 203580 that suppresses activation of NADPH oxidase is similar to that which inhibits SAPK2/p38 in vitro, and both fMLP and PMA induce an extremely rapid and potent activation of SAPK2/p38 in neutrophils. SB 203580 does not exert its effect by preventing the neutrophil priming reaction, by suppressing the phosphorylation of p47phax, or by preventing the translocation of p47phax/p67phax to the plasma membrane.

Abstract
This paper is addressed to study how PKC-mediated effects and phosphatidic acid interact together in activation of NADPH-oxidase in formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMet-Leu-Phe) stimulated neutrophils as detected by luminol chemiluminescence. The early luminescence response in fMet-Leu-Phe-stimulated cells (up to 5 min after stimulation) depends mainly on reactive oxygen species generated extracellularly, whereas all later events are caused by oxidation of luminol inside the cells. The two protein phosphatase inhibitors, okadaic acid and calyculin A, dramatically increased the late luminescence of cells. This enhancement was totally inhibited by the phospholipase D modulator butanol, while the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor bisindolylmaleimide I was insensitive. The early luminescence response of the cells was slightly inhibited by both protein phosphatase inhibitors and depended on protein kinase C as well as on phospholipase D activities. Propranolol, an inhibitor of phosphatidate phosphohydrolase, enhanced all parts of luminescence response of fMet-Leu-Phe-stimulated neutrophils at concentrations up to 2.5 x 10(-5) mol/L. While the late luminescence response of propranolol-treated cells was not inhibited by the PKC inhibitor bisindolylmaleimide I, the first response depended on protein kinase C. The inhibitor of diacylglycerol kinase R59949 enhanced the luminescence signal only during the first 4 min in fMet-Leu-Phe-stimulated cells. Only diacylglycerols derived from phospholipase C, such as 1-stearoyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycerol, were able to initiate an oxidative burst in cells. Saturated diacylglycerols (e.g. 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycerol or 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycerol) did not yield any luminol chemiluminescence, although they were incorporated into the plasma membrane, as evidenced by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. Our results demonstrate that phosphatidic acid produced by phospholipase D is responsible for NADPH-oxidase activity in fMet-Leu-Phe-stimulated neutrophils over the entire measuring time, whereas PKC-mediated processes are only involved during the first 5 min.

Abstract
Abstract
This paper deals with the mechanisms of activation of NADPH oxidase investigated using EBV-transformed human B lymphoblastoid cell lines (B cells) from normal subjects and from patients affected by X-linked chronic granulomatous disease (CGD). The results reported are as follows. 1) In normal B cells, the NADPH oxidase components p67phox, p40phox, p22phox, and gp91phox were less expressed than in polymorphonuclear neutrophils. 2) In normal B cells stimulated with PMA, p47phox, p67phox, and p40phox translocated to the membranes as occurs in polymorphonuclear neutrophils. 3) In CGD, B cells expressing p22phox in the absence of gp91phox, p47phox, p67phox, and p40phox did not translocate to the membranes after stimulation with PMA. 4) In PMA-stimulated B cells from an X91+ CGD patient in which p22phox was normally expressed and gp91phox was present but lacked five amino acids, translocation of p47phox to the membranes was unaffected, but p67phox and p40phox were poorly translocated, and the production of O2− was greatly reduced with respect to that by normal B cells. Taken together, these findings indicate that 1) a low expression of some NADPH oxidase components may represent the molecular basis of the low production of O2− in B lymphocytes; 2) the cytosolic components of NADPH oxidase cannot bind to p22phox on the membranes in the absence of gp91phox; 3) p47phox can translocate to the membranes independently of p67phox and p40phox; and 4) gp91phox may have a role in mediating and/or stabilizing the binding of p67phox and p40phox to the membranes of activated cells.

Abstract
Stimulation of alveolar macrophages (AM) with adenosine-5-diphosphate (ADP) results in transient production of superoxide anion radical (O2.-; superoxide) and H2O2 in a metabolic event known as the respiratory burst. Initiation of the respiratory burst appears to depend on activation of protein kinase activity, whereas protein phosphatases might involved in termination of the burst. The involvement of protein kinase C was suggested by inhibition by bisindolylmaleimide I (GF 109203X), a relatively specific inhibitor. KN-62, an inhibitor of calcium-calmodulin protein kinase II, also partly inhibited the respiratory burst stimulated by ADP and phorbol esters. The role of protein phosphatases in termination of the ADP-stimulated respiratory burst of AM was examined with calyculin A (CA) (25-75 nM) or okadaic acid (OA) (1-5 microM), two inhibitors of protein phosphatase 1 and 2a (PP1;PP2a). A dose-dependent prolongation of the respiratory burst was observed in the presence of these inhibitors. CA and OA also markedly enhanced the rate of superoxide production stimulated by ADP, consistent with involvement of PP1/PP2a in regulating both the rate of activation and timing of termination. Treatment of AM with cyclosporin A (CsA) (1-50 microM), an inhibitor of the calcium-dependent protein phosphatase 2b (PP2b), stimulated superoxide production by itself and significantly prolonged the duration of ADP-stimulated superoxide production. CsA, however, did not increase the ADP-stimulated rate of superoxide production. Thus, PP1/PP2a appear to be the primary phosphatases for controlling the intensity of the respiratory burst during receptor-elicited superoxide production in AM, whereas PP1/PP2a and PP2b play a role in turning off the respiratory burst.

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
Contrasting effects of okadaic acid (OKA) on neutrophil (PMN) superoxide anion (O2-) generation have been reported. In this study, we examined the effect of OKA on phorbol myristate acetate (PMA)-stimulated O2- generation in rat PMNs primed with LPS in vivo (LPS-PMN) and saline-treated rat PMNs (SAL-PMN). The following results were observed: (1) OKA, but neither genistein nor vanadate, markedly reduced O2- generation in a dose and time-dependent manner; (2) genistein, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, as well as OKA, reduced tyrosine phosphorylation; (3) sodium orthovanadate, a tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, potently enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation. Our studies suggest that OKA might reduce tyrosine phosphorylation by affecting the activity of tyrosine phosphatases regulated by serine-threonine phosphorylation.

Abstract
Ca2+ entry through the capacitative (store-regulated) pathway was shown to be inhibited in neutrophil granulocytes by the protein kinase C activator phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and the chemoattractant N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP) by a hitherto unknown mechanism. Measuring both Ca2+ and Mn2+ entry into store-depleted cells we show in the present study that inhibition of the capacitative pathway is absent in various forms of chronic granulomatous disease. To establish the possible relationship between inhibition of the capacitative pathway and ability of O-2 production and consequent membrane depolarization, gradual changes of the membrane potential were evoked in neutrophils of healthy individuals. This was accomplished by pharmacological manipulation of the membrane potential and by variations of the concentration and type of the stimulant. Close relationship was observed between membrane depolarization and inhibition of Mn2+ entry through the capacitative transport route. Our results provide an explanation for the inhibitory action of fMLP and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate on capacitative cation influx and reveal that upon physiological stimulation, Ca2+ entry into neutrophils is restricted by the depolarization accompanying O-2 production.

Abstract
Phosphorylation of components of the neutrophil NADPH oxidase plays a critical role in activation and maintenance of superoxide anion (O2-) generation. To investigate the role of dephosphorylation by phosphatases in regulating O2- production, human neutrophils were treated with calyculin A, a potent inhibitor of protein phosphatases 1 and 2A, prior to stimulation. Calyculin A alone did not stimulate O2- production. However, neutrophils exposed to 50 nM calyculin A and the chemotactic peptide formyl-met-leu-phe (FMLP, 100 nM) displayed markedly enhanced O2- production in comparison to cells stimulated with FMLP alone (28.63 +/- 7.00 versus 8.69 +/- 3.69 nmol O2-/1.5 x 10(6) neutrophils/5 min, respectively, n = 18, p < 0.001), with an increased duration of O2- production. In contrast, phosphatase-inhibition decreased oxidative responsiveness to phorbol myristate acetate (PMA, > or = 16 nM). We next examined the effect of calyculin A on products of the phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase D (PLD) pathway by assaying the mass levels of phosphatidic acid (PA), choline and diacylglycerol (DAG). Calyculin A increased both PA and choline production to 224 +/- 28% and 315 +/- 61% of FMLP-stimulated controls, respectively (p < 0.01, n = 7) without significantly increasing DAG. Also, membrane protein kinase C activity increased more than 10-fold in FMLP-stimulated cells exposed to calyculin A but decreased in cells stimulated with PMA following calyculin A pre-treatment. These results suggest that phosphatases exert variable and stimulus-dependent effects on pathways leading to O2- production. Further, it appears that phospholipase D activity and PA generation represent important steps in the pathway for NADPH activation triggered by FMLP.

Abstract
The leukocyte NADPH oxidase of neutrophils is a membrane-bound enzyme that catalyzes the production of O2- from oxygen using NADPH as electron donor. Dormant in resting neutrophils, the enzyme acquires catalytic activity when the cells are exposed to appropriate stimuli. During activation, the cytosolic oxidase components p47phox and p67phox migrate to the plasma membrane, where they associate with cytochrome b558, a membrane-bound flavohemoprotein, to assemble the active oxidase. An essential element of the activation process is the phosphorylation of p47phox, an event that accompanies oxidase activation in whole cells and can activate the oxidase in a cell-free system. We show here that the phosphorylation of p47phox leads to a substantial decrease in the reactivity of cysteine C378 toward N-ethylmaleimide, indicating the occurrence of a conformational change involving the C-terminal region of p47phox. A similar conformational change occurs when p47phox is exposed to arachidonate, one of a number of anionic detergents that activate the oxidase in the cell-free system. We propose that this change in conformation results in the appearance of a binding site through which p47phox interacts with cytochrome b558 during the activation process.

Abstract
On neutrophil stimulation, the cytosolic components of NADPH oxidase, p67phox, p47phox, p40phox, as well as the Ras-related G-proteins Rac1 and Rac2, are translocated from the cytosol to cell membranes where they associate with a flavocytochrome b, forming a functional complex responsible for the production of oxygen radicals in phagocytes. In this paper we show that (a) in neutrophils from a patient with a form of chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) in which p67phox is absent, p47phox and Rac2, but not p40phox and Rac1 were translocated from the cytosol to the membrane on stimulation with formylmethionyl-leucylphenylalanine (fMLP) or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA); (b) in neutrophils from a patient with a form of CGD in which p47phox is absent, p67phox, p40phox and Rac1 failed to associate with the membrane on stimulation with fMLP or PMA, whereas Rac2 was translocated as in normal neutrophils. We also show that in neutrophils from a patient lacking p67phox, the amount of cytosolic p40phox was decreased by about 40%. These findings indicate that, on neutrophil stimulation, p67phox mediates the translocation of p40phox and Rac1 from the cytosol to cell membranes and that Rac2 associates with the membranes independently of p47phox and p67phox.

Abstract
We examined the effects of okadaic acid, a protein phosphatase 1 and 2A inhibitor, on superoxide generation in human neutrophils. Superoxide generation induced by fMLP was inhibited by low-dose okadaic acid (10-100 nM), but it had no effect on superoxide synthesis by PMA, and the fMLP-induced rise of the intracellular Ca2+ concentration was not affected by low-dose okadaic acid. These findings suggested that the inhibitory mechanism of okadaic acid might involve PKC-independent and Ca(2+)-independent pathways in fMLP induced NADPH oxidase activation. Both fMLP-stimulated phosphorylation of serine residues in p47phox and its translocation to the plasma membrane were suppressed by low-dose okadaic acid. On the other hand, PMA-induced phosphorylation and translocation of p47phox were not affected by such a low dose of okadaic acid. These findings suggested that fMLP induced phosphorylation of serine residues in p47phox was regulated by protein phosphatase 2A, and its phosphorylation was necessary for translocation and superoxide generation in fMLP-activated human neutrophils.

Abstract
Phagocytic cells possess an electron-transport system which accepts electrons from NADPH in the cytosol to reduce oxygen to the superoxide radical in the vacuolar lumen. The superoxide is instrumental in killing ingested microorganisms. Patients suffering from chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), in which this system is failing, are abnormally susceptible to infectious diseases. Studying CGD patients' neutrophils has been enormously helpful in identifying the components of the superoxide-generating system, known as the NADPH oxidase. This review will describe the components of the electron-transport chain involved in the oxidase and the factors needed for its regulation.

Abstract
Previously employed non-selective protein kinase inhibitors yielded inconclusive results regarding involvement of protein kinase C (PKC) in phosphorylation of 47 kDa protein (p47 phox) in intact neutrophils stimulated with physiologic agonists of superoxide generation. In the present study, phosphorylation of p47 phox in formylMet-Leu-Phe (fMLP) stimulated neutrophils was potently inhibited in the presence of 0.3 microM RO 31-8220, a selective inhibitor of PKC. These results provide experimental evidence in support of the currently considered essential involvement of PKC in p47 phox phosphorylation in response to physiologic stimulation of neutrophil surface receptors. The fMLP-induced phosphorylation of p47 phox was enhanced and prolonged by calyculin A, a specific inhibitor of protein phosphatases of types 1 and 2A, and such enhanced phosphorylation was also effectively inhibited by RO 31-8220. Our results suggest that the extent and duration of p47 phox phosphorylation in intact fMLP-stimulated neutrophils is probably controlled by a balance between the activities of PKC, on the one hand, and of protein phosphatase(s) of type(s) 1 and/or 2A, on the other. Effects of RO 31-8220 and of calyculin A on the fMLP-induced p47 phox phosphorylation were paralleled by similar effects on superoxide release. Calyculin A and RO 31-8220 were also used to study signal transduction by a post-receptor agonist of superoxide generation, a calcium ionophore A23187. The results of the latter study indicated that PKC was activated in A23187-stimulated neutrophils and was essentially involved in superoxide generation and p47 phox phosphorylation. Further, these results suggested that protein phosphatase(s) of type(s) 1 and/or 2A were also activated in A23187-signalling pathway, and limited the extent of superoxide release and p47 phox phosphorylation.

Abstract
Sodium beraprost, a newly synthesized PGI2 analogue inhibited in a dose-dependent manner formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP) induced superoxide generation of human neutrophils, but it had no effect on the superoxide synthesis by phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) or A23187. Sodium beraprost inhibited Ca2+ influx in fMLP stimulated neutrophils employing fluorometry and confocal microscopy. These findings suggested that the inhibitory effect of sodium beraprost on fMLP induced superoxide generation was due to suppression of Ca2+ influx. To examine the relationship between the effect of sodium beraprost and phosphorylation of p47phox (the 47kDa cytosolic phagocyte oxidase factor), immuno-precipitation of p47phox and western blotting for phospho-amino acids were performed. Phosphorylation of serine residues of p47phox induced by fMLP was reduced in the presence of sodium beraprost in a dose-dependent manner. The reduction in phosphorylation was accompanied by a reduction in p47phox and p67phox translocation to the plasma membrane and superoxide generation. These findings suggested that p47phox phosphorylation was necessary for translocation and superoxide generation in fMLP activated neutrophils, and that p47phox phosphorylation was regulated by a Ca2+ dependent mechanism. These observations suggested that sodium beraprost inhibited fMLP induced superoxide generation of human neutrophils by the inhibition of p47phox phosphorylation and translocation by a Ca2+ dependent mechanism.

Abstract
NADPH oxidase is the enzyme complex responsible for the production of oxygen radicals in phagocytes. On neutrophil stimulation, the cytosolic components of NADPH oxidase, p67phox and p47phox, as well as the Ras-related G-protein rac 2, are translocated from the cytosol to cell membranes where they associate with a flavocytochrome b to form a functional complex. Besides rac 2, rac 1 G-protein is also involved in the activation of the NADPH oxidase, but, to date, it has not been documented whether it is also translocated in activated neutrophils. In this paper we show that: (a) in neutrophils stimulated with formylmethionyl-leucylphenylalanine, concanavalin A or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, both rac 1 and rac 2 are translocated from cytosol to the membranes; (b) in neutrophils from a patient with a form of chronic granulomatous disease in which p67phox is absent, rac 2 and p47phox were translocated as in normal neutrophils on stimulation with the above agonists, but rac 1 failed to be translocated from the cytosol to the membranes. This is the first demonstration that, in activated neutrophils, rac 1 is translocated from the cytosol to the membranes and this translocation requires p67phox. These results, coupled with those showing that rac 2 is not translocated in activated neutrophils lacking p47phox [El Benna, Ruedi and Babior (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269, 6729-6734], may suggest that the assembly of the cytosolic components of NADPH oxidase on the plasma membrane takes place through selective coupling of activated rac 1 and rac 2 with p67phox and p47phox respectively.

Abstract
We found that okadaic acid (OA), a potent tumor promoter and a phosphatase inhibitor, has a unique opposing effect on opsonized zymosan (Op.-zym.)-elicited O2.- production by differentiated HL-60 cells in a narrow range of concentrations but does not induce any O2.- production by itself. Okadaic acid magnified the O2.- production 2.5-fold at 1.0 microM, while it inhibited it at 2.0 microM or higher concentrations. This effect of OA did not correspond to the changes in the expression of surface receptors (CD11b/CD18, CR3) for Op.-zym., because they were weakly down-regulated by OA at any concentration. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis revealed that in the absence of OA, Op.-zym. induced rapid dephosphorylation of a cytosolic 21K protein with a very slight increase in phosphorylation of membranous p47phox, which is one of the cytosolic factors required for respiratory burst. In the presence of a stimulatory concentration (1.0 microM) of OA, the Op.-zym.-caused dephosphorylation of the 21K protein was still observed and the phosphorylation of p47phox was enhanced. In the presence of an inhibitory concentration (2.0 or 5.0 microM) of OA, the Op.-zym.-induced dephosphorylation of the 21K protein was strongly inhibited while p47phox was heavily phosphorylated. Acid hydrolysis of the 21K phosphoprotein yielded only phosphoserine as a phosphoamino acid. Furthermore, at least part of the 21K protein seemed to be associated with p67phox and p47phox, because it was co-immunoprecipitated with those cytosolic factors. These results suggest that a cytosolic 21K protein plays an important role in respiratory burst through dephosphorylation by a phosphoserine phosphatase, and that the dephosphorylated 21K protein may work synergistically with the phosphorylated p47phox on the pathway for activation of the respiratory burst oxidase.

Abstract
1. A new specific protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor, Ro 31-7549, was used to explore the mechanisms by which particulate stimuli, quartz and chrysotile, stimulate human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL) to produce reactive oxygen metabolites (ROM). Also soluble stimuli, formyl-Methionyl-Leucyl-Phenylalanine (fMLP) and phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) were used. 2. Ro 31-7549 inhibited chrysotile-induced free intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) elevations but did not have an effect on quartz-induced elevations of [Ca2+]i. Both quartz and chrysotile induced production of ROM were partially inhibited by Ro 31-7549. fMLP-induced elevation of [Ca2+]i was inhibited by Ro 31-7549 whereas PMA did not affect [Ca2+]i. Ro 31-7549 strongly inhibited fMLP-induced ROM production, and completely abolished that induced by PMA. 3. These result suggest that PKC may have an important role in the activation of PMNL to produce ROM by particulate and soluble stimuli. However, the inhibition of chrysotile-, but not of quartz-induced [Ca2+]i elevations by Ro 31-7549 provides evidence that both PKC-dependent and -independent mechanisms may play a role in the activation of human leukocytes to produce ROM.

Abstract
Neutrophils express several receptors for the Fc region of IgG molecules. Specific cross-linking of the type II receptor (Fc gamma RII) can be achieved by treating neutrophils with the Fab fragment of a specific monoclonal antibody IV.3 against the receptor followed by goat anti-mouse IgG F(ab')2 fragment. Such treatment initiates a number of neutrophil responses including the release of O2-. and increased protein tyrosine phosphorylation. The increase in tyrosine phosphorylation is rapid and transient and correlates with O2-. release. Both responses are inhibited by pretreatment of neutrophils with a protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor, genistein. The increase in protein tyrosine phosphorylation is not inhibited by pretreatment of neutrophils with pertussis toxin or an intracellular Ca2+ chelator, but is enhanced by a phosphoprotein phosphatase inhibitor, okadaic acid. The activity of a neutrophil Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CAMPKII) is also stimulated by cross-linking Fc gamma RII. The increase in CAMPKII activity is inhibited by pretreatment with either genistein or Ca2+ chelator. The results suggest that the increase in protein tyrosine phosphorylation induced by cross-linking of Fc gamma RII requires neither pertussis-toxin-sensitive G-proteins nor a rise in intracellular Ca2+ but can be regulated by protein phosphatases. Furthermore, protein tyrosine phosphorylation may be an early signal functionally linked to Fc gamma RII-mediated signal transduction leading to CAMPKII activation and O2-. release in human neutrophils.

Abstract
The involvement of serine/threonine protein-phosphatases in the production of superoxide (respiratory burst) by human neutrophils was investigated using calyculin A, a potent inhibitor of both protein phosphatases type 1 and 2A, and okadaic acid, which preferentially inhibits protein phosphatase type 2A. Treatment of neutrophils with calyculin A (25-75 nM) or okadaic acid (1-4 microM) had no stimulatory effect but potently enhanced total superoxide production induced by an optimal fMLP (N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine) concentration (0.1 microM). The maximum increase plateaued with 50-75 nM calyculin A and 2-4 microM okadaic acid, reaching approximately 120 and 200% of control values, respectively. Unlike calyculin A, okadaic acid also primed the initial rate of superoxide production, suggesting that protein phosphatases may down-regulate both initiation and termination of respiratory burst. Optimal stimulation of the respiratory burst by PMA (160 nM) was inhibited by calyculin A and okadaic acid, with an IC50 of 60 nM and 2 microM, respectively, although both drugs caused protein hyperphosphorylation. The inhibition was partially prevented by a nonstimulatory concentration of A23187, indicating a role of calcium in the inhibitory effects of the drugs. Unlike the optimal respiratory burst, suboptimal respiratory burst induced by PMA (1-7 nM) was enhanced by calyculin A and okadaic acid. Unprimed and primed respiratory bursts were depressed by a selective antagonist of protein kinase C (GF 109203X), indicating positive regulation of these responses by protein kinase C. Thus, the use of calyculin A and okadaic acid distinguishes two regulatory processes of superoxide production.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
When human neutrophils were incubated in the presence of the protein phosphatase inhibitors calyculin A or okadaic acid, the chemotactic peptide N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP) produced a sustained (> 5 min) inhibition of the Ca2+ mobilization from intracellular stores induced by platelet-activating factor (PAF) or by leukotriene B4 (LTB4). No effect on Ca2+ mobilization by PAF or LTB4 was observed 2 min after the addition of fMLP alone or only in the presence of phosphatase inhibitors, but a similar inhibition was produced by high (> 50 nM) concentrations of phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDB). However, inhibition by PDB was sensitive to the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors staurosporin and Ro 31-8220, while inhibition by fMLP and calyculin A was not. These results suggest that fMLP induces a transient phosphorylation not mediated by PKC which interferes at some point with the transduction pathway leading from the plasma membrane receptors for PAF and LTB4 to the release of Ca2+ from the stores. Protein phosphatases 1 and/or 2A revert the inhibition effected by fMLP within less than 2 min. PAF and LTB4 were also able to activate this mechanism to a smaller extent. Phosphatase inhibitors also delayed by 1-2 s the start of agonist-induced rises in [Ca2+]i, and this delay was further increased by previous addition of any other agonist. Finally, given that both phosphatase inhibitors and low concentrations of PDB (2-10 nM) strongly inhibit Ca2+ entry, we conclude that phosphorylation down-regulates both agonist-induced Ca2+ entry and Ca2+ mobilization, but with different potency.

Abstract
Activation of human neutrophil NADPH oxidase requires the interaction of cytosolic and membrane-associated components. Evidence has been accumulated that in phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-stimulated neutrophils, the translocation to the plasma membrane of the cytosolic components p47phox and p67phox and the phosphorylation of p47phox are essential steps in activation of NADPH oxidase. No direct evidence has been presented to date as to whether p67phox is also phosphorylated. To address this problem we have immunoprecipitated p67phox from neutrophil cytosol and membrane fractions. The results indicate that, very soon after activation with PMA (20 s), p67phox was present in a phosphorylated form in the cytosol and in the membranes. At later times (1-3 min) the extent of p67phox phosphorylation continuously increased both in the cytosol and in the membrane fraction, while oxygen consumption reached the maximal rate within 40 s, and then remained linear. p67phox was also phosphorylated in formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine-activated neutrophils. That the phosphorylated p67 protein we identified in immunoprecipitation experiments was p67phox was confirmed by the observation that no phosphorylated band of 67 kDa was immunoprecipitated from the cytosol and membranes of PMA-stimulated neutrophils from a p67phox-deficient chronic granulomatous disease patient. In this case, p47phox was normally phosphorylated. These data demonstrate that: (1) the phosphorylation of p67phox is correlated with activation of NADPH oxidase, and (2) continuous phosphorylation of p67phox is required in order to maintain the linearity of the respiratory burst.

Abstract
Previous studies from this laboratory described the kinetic characteristics of the inhibition by tosylphenylalanine chloromethane (TosPheCH2Cl) on superoxide anion production by human neutrophils (PMN) stimulated with a phorbol ester (PMA). In this study we present further evidence concerning the potential role of the chloromethane target in the normal cellular activation of NADPH oxidase. When PMN are treated with TosPheCH2Cl and subsequently PMA, or with the two reagents in the reverse order, the inhibition of superoxide production by the intact cells is still present in a particulate NADPH oxidase fraction prepared from these cells. Nevertheless, when cells incubated only with the chloromethane and not with PMA are disrupted, both their cytosolic and membrane fractions are fully competent in the cell-free activation assay. Thus, the chloromethane target has a role in NADPH oxidase activation exclusively at the cellular level. This observation constitutes additional evidence in favour of the idea that activation in the cell-free system reflects only partially the events which occur in the cells. When cells are activated with PMA, their cytosol displays a loss of activating capacity in the cell-free activation assay in the presence of arachidonate, as was shown before with SDS as activator [Ambruso, D. R., Bolsher, B. G. J. M., Stockman, P. M., Verhoeven, A. J. & Roos, D. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 924-930]. This phenomenon was shown to arise most probably from the translocation of cytosolic factors to the membrane, resulting in a depleted cytosol. When superoxide production was inhibited by cell treatment with TosPheCH2Cl, either before or after activation with PMA, the cytosol from inhibited cells showed a recovery of activation capacity in the cell-free system. This effect probably results from TosPheCH2Cl inhibiting the translocation of the cytosolic factors when added before PMA. This results in an insufficient activation at the membrane level, which was previously considered as an inhibition. The effect of TosPheCH2Cl, when added after PMA, can best be explained again as an inhibition of translocation in the frame of the continuous replenishment-deactivation hypothesis proposed by Akard et al. [Akard, L. P., English, D. & Gabig, T. G. (1988) Blood 72, 322-327]. Thus, TosPheCH2Cl is apparently a promising new tool for studying the activation of NADPH oxidase at the cellular level.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
The NADPH oxidase is an electron transport chain found in lymphocytes and in the wall of the endocytic vacuole of 'professional' phagocytic cells. It is so called because NADPH is used as an electron donor to reduce oxygen to superoxide and hydrogen peroxide. The redox components are provided by a very unusual flavocytochrome b from the membrane, which is dependent upon cytosolic factors (including two specialized proteins, p47phox and p67phox) for activation. The small GTP-binding protein, p21rac, is also implicated in this system, possibly as the switch that triggers electron transport. This system provides a key to our understanding of the way in which these GTP-binding proteins function.
