Abstract
Neutrophils are the first line of defense in the innate immune system. Neutrophils neutralize invading microorganisms mainly by phagocytosis, but the mechanism and molecules involved in this process are not well characterized. Because the endosomal soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) protein syntaxin 7 regulates vesicle trafficking events in phagocytosis, we investigated the expression and subcellular localization of syntaxin 7 in human neutrophils. Here we have found that human peripheral blood neutrophils and neutrophil-differentiated HL-60 cells express syntaxin 7 at both mRNA and protein levels. Using biochemical and ultrastructural approaches, we found that syntaxin 7 was broadly located in the membranes of the three major cytoplasmic granules of human neutrophils, with a major location in azurophilic granules, which are mainly involved in phagocytosis. A secondary, but extensive, location of syntaxin 7 was in specific and tertiary granules, which resulted translocated to the plasma membrane upon cell activation that promoted mobilization of these organelles. These data reveal the presence of syntaxin 7 in the membranes of exocytosis-prone granules (specific and tertiary granules) and phagocytosis-related granules (azurophilic granules) in human neutrophils, and therefore it might play a role in both exocytosis and phagocytosis in human neutrophils.

Abstract
We have examined the role of the R-soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) synaptobrevin-2/vesicle-associated membrane protein (VAMP)-2 in neutrophil exocytosis. VAMP-2, localized in the membranes of specific and gelatinase-containing tertiary granules in resting human neutrophils, resulted translocated to the cell surface following neutrophil activation under experimental conditions that induced exocytosis of specific and tertiary granules. VAMP-2 was also found on the external membrane region of granules docking to the plasma membrane in activated neutrophils. Specific Abs against VAMP-2 inhibited Ca(2+) and GTP-gamma-S-induced exocytosis of CD66b-enriched specific and tertiary granules, but did not affect exocytosis of CD63-enriched azurophilic granules, in electropermeabilized neutrophils. Tetanus toxin disrupted VAMP-2 and inhibited exocytosis of tertiary and specific granules. Activation of neutrophils led to the interaction of VAMP-2 with the plasma membrane Q-SNARE syntaxin 4, and anti-syntaxin 4 Abs inhibited exocytosis of specific and tertiary granules in electropermeabilized neutrophils. Immunoelectron microscopy showed syntaxin 4 on the plasma membrane contacting with docked granules in activated neutrophils. These data indicate that VAMP-2 mediates exocytosis of specific and tertiary granules, and that Q-SNARE/R-SNARE complexes containing VAMP-2 and syntaxin 4 are involved in neutrophil exocytosis.

Abstract
AbstractTo understand the molecular basis of exocytosis in human neutrophils, the role of syntaxin 6 and SNAP-23 in neutrophil degranulation was examined. Human syntaxin 6 was cloned and identified as a 255-amino acid protein with a carboxy-terminal transmembrane region and two coiled-coil domains. Syntaxin 6 was localized mainly in the plasma membrane of human resting neutrophils, whereas SNAP-23 was located primarily in the mobilizable tertiary and specific granules. SNAP-23 was translocated to the cell surface, colocalizing with syntaxin 6, on neutrophil activation. In vitro binding studies established that SNAP-23 binds to syntaxin 6. Coimmunoprecipitation assays indicated that SNAP-23 interacts with syntaxin 6 in vivo, and this interaction was dramatically increased on neutrophil activation. Antibodies against SNAP-23 inhibited Ca++ and GTP-γ-S–induced exocytosis of CD67-enriched specific granules, but they hardly affected exocytosis of the CD63-enriched azurophilic granules, when introduced into electropermeabilized neutrophils. Anti–syntaxin 6 antibodies prevented exocytosis of both CD67- and CD63-enriched granules in electropermeabilized neutrophils. These data show that syntaxin 6 and SNAP-23 are involved in human neutrophil exocytosis, demonstrating that vesicle SNAP receptor-target SNAP receptor (v-SNARE– t-SNARE) interactions modulate neutrophil secretion. Syntaxin 6 acts as a target for secretion of specific and azurophilic granules, whereas SNAP-23 mediates specific granule secretion.

Abstract
Following 35 min of adhesion to a plastic surface, an 80-kDa F-actin-binding protein was shown to be enriched in the plasma membrane fractions of porcine neutrophils by protein blotting with labeled F-actin. This protein was almost undetectable in membrane fractions of free floating neutrophils, while it was present in total cell samples. The 80-kDa protein appeared to be a major high molecular mass component of the isolated actin-cytoskeleton of both control and attached cells. The studied F-actin-binding protein was recognized by anti-moesin antibodies. Our results suggest that moesin is translocated to the plasma membrane upon adhesion of neutrophils to the extracellular surface.

Abstract
Exocytosis plays an essential role in the physiological functions of human neutrophils. Although SNAP-25 is considered to play a key role in vesicle-membrane fusion, it has been detected almost exclusively in the neuronal system. Using different specific antibodies to SNAP-25, we have identified in the membrane fraction of resting human neutrophils an immunoreactive band with the same molecular mass observed in brain homogenates. Immunoblot analysis of subcellular fractions of neutrophils revealed that SNAP-25 protein was found in the granule membrane fraction, but not in the cytosolic and plasma membrane fractions. Granule localization for neutrophil SNAP-25 was further demonstrated by confocal and immunoelectron microscopy. Furthermore, SNAP-25 was mainly located in the morphologically defined neutrophil peroxidase-negative granules, which are mobilizable upon cell activation. In addition, the protein was specifically cleaved by botulinal neurotoxin A, as observed in brain homogenate. These findings reveal the presence of SNAP-25 in the granule membranes of human neutrophils.

Abstract
The subcellular localization of rap proteins in resting human neutrophils was investigated by immunoblot analysis with specific anti-rap2 and anti-rap1 antibodies of the membrane proteins obtained from distinct subcellular fractions. Rap2 protein was mainly located in gelatinase-containing granules, whereas rap1 protein was detected both in gelatinase-containing granules and in fractions enriched in plasma membrane. Neither rap1 nor rap2 proteins were found in the cytosol or in azurophilic granules. Rap2B, not rap2A, appeared to be the major rap2 protein in human neutrophils. The identification and subcellular localization of rap1 and rap2 proteins at the membranes of gelatinase-rich granules suggest that these proteins could play a role in the regulation of the rapid and selective mobilization of gelatinase-containing granules in human neutrophils.

Abstract
The effect of arachidonic acid (AA) on the assembled NADPH oxidase activity in cytoplasmic membranes and in endosomes separated from human neutrophils was studied. These two fractions were separated on a Percoll-sucrose density gradient from PMA-stimulated neutrophils preincubated with fluorescein isothiocyanate-conjugated dextran (FITC-dextran). In both fractions, NADPH oxidase activity could be detected with the addition of NADPH and cytochrome c, indicating the presence of an assembled activated form of the enzyme. Addition of AA at low concentrations (ED50 = 1 microM and 0.1 microM for cytoplasmic membranes and FITC-dextran endosomes, respectively) caused an increase in the activity of the assembled NADPH oxidase found in these fractions. Addition of 10 microM AA to the assembled oxidase in cytoplasmic membranes or endosomes significantly increased the Vmax (1.37 and 1.45 nmol O2/min compared with 2.05 and 2.20 nmol O2/min in the absence of presence of AA, respectively) and lowered the Km for NADPH (35 microM and 40 microM compared with 7.5 microM and 7.2 microM in the absence or presence of AA, respectively). These results suggest that AA increases the activity of the assembled NADPH oxidase by elevating the number of its active forms and increasing its affinity to the substrate.

Abstract
Components involved in superoxide anion production (cytochrome b) and in cell adhesion processes (CD11b, CD11c, CD18), two early functional responses of neutrophils during acute inflammation, are intracellularly located in resting human neutrophils. We have found a correlation between secretion of gelatinase and overexpression in the plasma membrane of CD11b, CD11c, CD18 and cytochrome b upon cell activation. Gelatinase and lactoferrin were parallely released after cell activation with different stimuli, but a better correlation between antigen up-regulation and gelatinase release was obtained. Total translocation of the intracellular pool of these mobilizable molecules to plasma membrane was achieved under conditions that induced total degranulation of the gelatinase-rich granule population, whereas 50% and 90% of the lactoferrin-containing secondary granules and peroxidase-containing primary granules, respectively, remained unfused. These results suggest a mechanism by which neutrophil function can be regulated through mobilization of gelatinase-rich granules, which can be considered as a subpopulation of secondary granules.

Abstract
We have examined the putative relationship between the presence of neutral pH optimum phospholipase A2 activities and the phospholipid and fatty acid composition in the distinct fractions obtained after subcellular fractionation in a continuous sucrose gradient of human neutrophils. Neutral phospholipase A2 activity was found mainly in the plasma membrane, the azurophilic granules and an unidentified fraction which was a little denser than that containing specific granules and endoplasmic reticulum. These differently located phospholipase A2 activities resulted in activation upon calcium ionophore A23187-cell treatment, but the phospholipase A2 activity found in the unidentified region showed the highest degree of activation after cell treatment with A23187 and hydrolyzed preferentially ethanolamine-containing glycerophospholipids. The subcellular distribution of inositol-containing phosphoglycerides was bimodal, with a main peak at the plasma membrane and another peak at the azurophilic granule region. Choline- and ethanolamine-containing glycerophospholipids showed a broad distribution throughout the gradient, with preponderance in the denser part of the gradient, where the intracellular organelle phospholipase A2 activities were located. Interestingly, ethanolamine-containing glycerophospholipids were shown to be enriched in fractions containing the phospholipase A2 which hydrolyzes preferentially this phospholipid class. Most of the arachidonic acid present in the postnuclear fraction of human neutrophils was found in the plasma membrane and resulted to be the only fatty acid released during A23187 stimulation. Thus, plasma membrane phospholipase A2 seems to be involved mainly in the release of arachidonic acid in A23187-stimulated cells. These findings indicate that differences in substrate specificity found in vitro among the phospholipase A2 activities located in distinct subcellular particulates might be a reflection of the distinct phospholipid and fatty acid composition in these particulates.

Abstract
We have found a phospholipase D activity in the postnuclear fraction of human neutrophils, employing phosphatidylinositol as exogenous substrate. This phospholipase D activity was assessed by both phosphatidate formation and by free inositol release in the presence of 15 mM LiCl in the reaction mixture and in the absence of Mg2+ ions to prevent inositol-1-phosphate phosphatase activity. To assess further the phospholipase D activity, we studied its capacity to catalyze a transphosphatidylation reaction, as a unique feature of the enzyme. It was detected as [14C]phosphatidylethanol formation when the postnuclear fraction was incubated with [14C]phosphatidylinositol in the presence of ethanol. The phospholipase D showed a major optimum pH at 7.5 and a minor one at pH 5.0. Neutral and acid phospholipase D activities were differentially located in subcellular fractionation studies of resting neutrophils, namely in the cytosol and in the azurophilic granules, respectively. Neutral phospholipase D required Ca2+ ions to the active, whereas the acid enzyme activity was Ca2(+)-independent. The neutral phospholipase D activity showed a certain specificity for phosphatidylinositol, as it was able to hydrolyze phosphatidylinositol at a much higher rate than phosphatidylcholine, in the absence and in the presence of different detergents. This neutral phospholipase D activity behaved as a protein of high molecular mass (350-400 kDa) by gel filtration chromatography. Moreover, neutral phospholipase D activity was detected in the postnuclear fraction of human monocytes, by measuring free inositol release from phosphatidylinositol as exogenous substrate, under the same experimental conditions as those used with neutrophils. The enzyme displayed similar specific activities in both cell types as well as the same degree of activation after cell stimulation with the calcium ionophore A23187. These results demonstrate the existence of two phospholipase D activities with different pH optima and intracellular location in human neutrophils. Furthermore, these results suggest that this phospholipase D can play a role in signal-transducing processes during cell stimulation in human phagocytes.

Abstract
During the course of carrageenan-induced inflammation in rats major changes were observed in the activities of neutrophil granule enzymes. The activities of three enzymes--gelatinase, collagenase and beta-glucuronidase, the markers of three different types of granules, have been measured and compared to those of a control group of animals. Total collagenase and gelatinase activities of control rats were 59.4 +/- 3.6 (mean +/- SD) and 23.0 +/- 2.9 units/mg protein, respectively. Significantly reduced levels of both collagenase (35.6 +/- 2.5 units) (p less than 0.05) and gelatinase (7.1 +/- 0.7 units) (p less than 0.001) were measured in the blood neutrophils of inflamed rats; and the collagenase activity of neutrophils derived from inflamed pleural exudate was also significantly decreased to a level of 19.7 +/- 1.8 units/mg protein (p less than 0.01). However, the gelatinase activity of exudate neutrophils did not differ from that of blood cells of inflamed rats. In contrast, no change was found for the beta-glucuronidase activity in blood neutrophils of control and inflamed rats. These observations support the concept that during the inflammatory response in rats, neutrophils in the circulation may become activated as judged by the extracellular secretion of collagenase and gelatinase. Therefore, neutrophils accumulating in acute inflammatory lesions contain decreased levels of collagenolytic enzymes and the significance of this observation is discussed.

Abstract
Stimulation of human neutrophils by the chemoattractant formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine or the calcium ionophore A23187 induced increments in the cell surface expression of the alpha subunits of Mo1 (CD11b) and gp150, 95 (CD11c) and their common beta subunit (CD18). These increases showed a good correlation with the extracellular release of gelatinase, a marker for tertiary granules in human neutrophils. Conversely, the cell surface expression of the alpha subunit of the lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 or LFA-1 (CD11a) was not altered upon cell activation. By subcellular fractionation and immunoprecipitation studies, we have found that CD11b, CD11c and CD18 molecules were mainly localized in the membranes of tertiary granules, which were resolved from the specific and azurophilic granules as well as from the plasma membrane fraction.

Abstract
We studied synoviocytes obtained from rats that had been injected with Freund's complete adjuvant 12 days prior to killing. We found that several activation parameters were affected in these synoviocytes, namely, the concanavalin A protein-binding pattern, the production of superoxide, and the appearance of the p77 polypeptide, which we have previously shown to be associated with the activation caused by the induction of polyarthritis. Our findings suggest that prior to the establishment of the inflammatory process, synoviocytes are in a state of activation, and may be a component of the molecular mechanism during the early stages of disease.

Abstract
Phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) induces changes in the human monocyte-macrophage-like cell line U937 which reflect cellular differentiation. PMA prompted the expression of the superoxide anion (O2-) generating capacity in U937 upon appropriate stimulation. A highly specific stimulation by Concanavalin A (Con A) of O2- release was observed in PMA-differentiated U937 cells, which exceeded in 10-20 times that obtained with Con A-stimulated monocytes and neutrophils. These results indicate that a highly specific machinery required for Con A stimulation, practically absent in mature monocytes and neutrophils, is synthesized during PMA-induced U937 differentiation. A novel cytochrome b putatively involved in O2- generation was detected in U937 cells. This cytochrome b content was increased during PMA-induced cell differentiation, although no linear correlation was found between capability to produce O2- by macrophage-like U937 cells and their content of cytochrome b.

Abstract
The mechanism of respiratory burst was studied by modulating membrane surfaces with lipophilic ions in guinea-pig polymorphonuclear leukocytes and their subcellular membranes. Positively charged alkylamines in concentration ranges of 0.5 to 15 microM (ED50 values) inhibited the O2- generation with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, N-formylmethionylleucylphenylalanine, A23187, myristate and arachidonate in intact cells, and the inhibition was relieved by negatively charged agents. A similar molecular size of alkylalcohols had no effects. A similar charge-dependent O2- generation was also observed with fatty acids in subcellular membrane fractions prepared from unstimulated control cells, and this was insensitive to H-7 and W-7. These results suggest that triggering of NADPH oxidase activation involves a reaction(s) that is regulated by membrane charges.

Abstract
Release and subcellular fractionation experiments indicate that fusion of a novel tertiary granule with the plasma membrane is concomitant with human neutrophil activation. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) induced a respiratory burst in human neutrophils as well as a high release of gelatinase, a marker of the tertiary granule. Preincubation of neutrophils with cytochalasin E induced a partially activated or 'primed' state, in which cells were unable to generate superoxide anion, but showed a reduced latency period for this activity. Fusion of tertiary granules with the cell surface also occurred during priming, although to a lesser extent than in PMA stimulation. The rapid tertiary granule degranulation, preceding that of specifics and azurophilics, seems to play an important role in the functionality and secretory properties of human neutrophils.
