Abstract
Fatty acid synthase (FAS) is altered in metabolic disorders and cancer. Conventional FAS null mice die in utero, so effects of whole-body inhibition of lipogenesis following development are unknown. Inducible global knockout of FAS (iFASKO) in mice was lethal due to a disrupted intestinal barrier and leukopenia. Conditional loss of FAS was associated with the selective suppression of granulopoiesis without disrupting granulocytic differentiation. Transplantation of iFASKO bone marrow into wild-type mice followed by Cre induction resulted in selective neutrophil depletion, but not death. Impaired lipogenesis increased ER stress and apoptosis in neutrophils by preferentially decreasing peroxisome-derived membrane phospholipids containing ether bonds. Inducible global knockout of PexRAP, a peroxisomal enzyme required for ether lipid synthesis, also produced neutropenia. FAS knockdown in neutrophil-like HL-60 cells caused cell loss that was partially rescued by ether lipids. Inhibiting ether lipid synthesis selectively constrains neutrophil development, revealing an unrecognized pathway in immunometabolism.

Abstract
Localized juvenile periodontitis is a destructive form of periodontal inflammatory disease which has its onset at puberty. The etiopathology of the disease is still unclear but neutrophils have been suggested to play a major role both in the production and development of the disorder. About 70% of the patients with localized juvenile periodontitis exhibit neutrophil functional abnormalities, such as decreased chemotaxis and phagocytosis. Interestingly, it has been frequently reported that the same hypoactive cells show an enhanced respiratory burst response and increased adhesion. Several possible mechanisms explaining neutrophil anomalies in localized juvenile periodontitis have been proposed. These include the presence of soluble serum factors capable of modulating neutrophil function, altered cell-surface receptor expression and/or function, and a change in the post-receptor signaling events. Recently, a growing evidence has accumulated showing that the diacylglycerol metabolism could be altered in neutrophils from patients with localized juvenile periodontitis. This change, which may be due to a defect in a major diacylglycerol metabolizing enzyme, diacylglycerol kinase, results in enhanced accumulation of diacylglycerol in activated cells. Because diacylglycerol is an endogenous activator of protein kinase C, the increased and prolonged generation of diacylglycerol could lead to abnormal pattern of protein kinase C-regulated neutrophil functions, explaining the parallel hypo- and hyperactivities.

Abstract
AbstractAcquired mutations truncating the C-terminal domain of the granulocyte colony-stimulating factor receptor (G-CSF-R) are found in about 20% of severe congenital neutropenia (SCN) patients, with this cohort of patients predisposed to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In myeloid cells, such mutations act in a dominant-negative manner leading to hyperproliferation and lack of differentiation in response to G-CSF. However, why these truncated receptors are dominant in function over wild-type receptors has remained unclear. We report that ligand-induced internalization of truncated G-CSF-R is severely impaired compared with the wild-type receptor, which results in sustained activation of STAT proteins. Strikingly, in cells coexpressing both truncated and wild-type forms, the truncated receptors acted dominantly with regard to both internalization and sustained activation. Site-directed mutagenesis of the C-terminus showed that receptor tyrosines in this region were dispensable for internalization, whereas a di-leucine–containing motif in Box B3 played some role. However, loss of the di-leucine motif was not the critical determinant of the sustained activation status of truncated receptors. These data suggest that defective internalization, leading to extended receptor activation, is a major cause of the dominant hyperproliferative effect of truncated G-CSF receptors, which is only partially due to the loss of a di-leucine motif present in the Box B3 region of the full-length receptor.

Abstract
In the present study, we investigated the mechanism by which sphingosine and its analogues, dihydrosphingosine and phytosphingosine, inhibit polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) phagocytosis of IgG-opsonized erythrocytes (EIgG) and inhibit ERK1 and ERK2 phosphorylation. We used antibodies that recognized the phosphorylated forms of ERK1 (p44) and ERK2 (p42) (extracellular signal-regulated protein kinases 1 and 2). Sphingoid bases inhibited ERK1 and ERK2 activation and phagocytosis of EIgG in a concentration-dependent manner. Incubation with glycine, N,N′-[1,2-ethanediylbis(oxy-2,1-phenylene)]bis[N-[2-[(acetyloxy)methoxy]-2-oxoethyl]]-bis[(acetyloxy)methyl]ester (BAPTA,AM), an intracellular chelator of calcium, failed to block either phagocytosis or ERK1 and ERK2 phosphorylation, consistent with the absence of a role for a calcium-dependent protein kinase C (PKC) in ERK1 and ERK2 phosphorylations. Western blotting demonstrated that sphingosine inhibited the translocation of Raf-1 and PKCδ from PMN cytosol to the plasma membrane during phagocytosis. These data are consistent with the interpretation that sphingosine regulates ERK1 and ERK2 phosphorylation through inhibition of PKCδ, and this in turn leads to inhibition of Raf-1 translocation to the plasma membrane. Consistent with this interpretation, the sphingosine-mediated inhibition of phagocytosis, ERK2 activation, and PKCδ translocation to the plasma membrane could be abrogated with a cell-permeable diacylglycerol analog. The increase in the diacylglycerol mass correlated with the translocation of PKCδ and Raf-1 to the plasma membrane by 3 minutes after the initiation of phagocytosis. Additionally, the diacylglycerol analog enhanced phagocytosis by initiating activation of PKCδ and its translocation to the plasma membrane. Because PMN generate sufficient levels of sphingosine by 30 minutes during phagocytosis of EIgG to inhibit phagocytosis, it appears that sphingosine can serve as an endogenous regulator of EIgG-mediated phagocytosis by downregulating ERK activation.

Abstract
We have shown previously that both 1,2-diacylglycerol (AAG) and 1-O-alkyl-2-acylglycerol (EAG) prime neutrophil release of arachidonic acid via uncharacterized phospholipases A2. Therefore, we investigated the actions of EAG and AAG specifically on neutrophil cytosolic (cPLA2) and secretory (sPLA2) phospholipase A2s. We hypothesized that AAG as a protein kinase activator would activate cPLA2 via phosphorylation events. EAG is antagonistic to the AAG activation of PKC, thus it was not expected to act via phosphorylation of cPLA2. Neutrophils were primed with either AAG or EAG and then stimulated with fMLP. When neutrophils were primed with 5-20 microM 1,2-diacylglycerol, a shift was observed in cPLA2 migration on SDS-PAGE gels, consistent with phosphorylation of the protein. This gel shift was not seen after exposure to EAG. AAG also caused a parallel increase in enzymatic activity of cPLA2 that was not seen with EAG. We also investigated whether either diglyceride would cause similar priming or direct secretion of sPLA2. Both AAG and EAG directly caused significant secretion of neutrophil sPLA2. EAG also increased the release of sPLA2 in cells subsequently stimulated with fMLP. Thus, AAG activated cPLA2 and stimulated secretion of sPLA2. In contrast, EAG did not activate cPLA2, but directly activated secretion of sPLA2. We also demonstrated that human synovial fluid sPLA2 increased AA release from resting and fMLP-stimulated neutrophils. Given that diglycerides prime for release of AA, PAF, and LTB4, these current data support the hypothesis that such priming may be mediated by phosphorylation dependent (cPLA2) or phosphorylation independent (e.g. secretion of sPLA2) events.

Abstract
In this study, we examined the protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms present in cytosol and membrane fractions of rat neutrophils by Western blotting analysis with monoclonal antibodies against PKC isoforms and demonstrated that rat neutrophils express at least three conventional PKCs (cPKC), alpha, beta and gamma, four novel PKCs (nPKC), delta, epsilon, theta and mu, and three atypical PKCs (aPKC), iota, lambda and zeta, although PKC lambda and zeta were barely detected. Cells stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) induce a sustained and marked translocation of cPKC and nPKC from the cytosol to particulate fraction. A concentration-dependence of PMA on the membrane translocation of PKC isoforms was observed. Treatment with formyl-Met-Leu-Phe (fMLP), in contrast with PMA, caused a transient and less prominent association of cPKC and nPKC with particulate fraction. However, the distribution of PKC iota isoform was affected neither by fMLP nor by PMA. These data indicate that the rat neutrophils contain PKCs of three isoform families and the membrane translocation of cPKC and nPKC was observed in cells in response to PMA as well as to fMLP.

Abstract
Peripheral neutrophils from patients with localized juvenile periodontitis (LJP) show functional abnormalities, such as impaired locomotion and enhanced respiratory burst activity. A defect in intracellular signalling mechanism has been proposed to be responsible for some changes, but direct evidence is lacking. In this study we have determined the activity of diacylglycerol (DAG) kinase, an enzyme controlling the DAG/protein kinase C (PKC) pathway, in crude cytosolic and membrane fractions of neutrophils from 5L JP patients and age and gender-matched normal individuals. No difference was observed in the DAG kinase activity in subcellular fractions from unstimulated cells between the 2 groups. When normal neutrophils were stimulated with N formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP), the enzyme activity was markedly increased in both subcellular fractions. In contrast, neutrophils from 3 of the 5 LJP patients tested completely failed to rise the DAG kinase activity upon chemoattractant stimulation. These data indicate that in some LJP patients the neutrophil DAG kinase may be defective. To examine whether a decrease in DAG kinase activity could account for some neutrophil abnormalities seen in LJP, normal neutrophils were treated with R59022, a DAG kinase inhibitor, that has been shown to reduce DAG kinase activity in human neutrophils. Upon stimulation with FMLP, R59022-treated normal neutrophils showed significantly reduced chemotactic response and enhanced respiratory burst activity, two typical functional abnormalities featured by LJP cells. It is concluded that a defect in DAG kinase may cause, through an abnormal accumulation of the endogenous PKC activator DAG some of the functional changes observed in neutrophils from LJP patients.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to assess the origin of the 1,2-diradylglycerols produced during prolonged hormonal stimulation of rabbit pancreatic acini by comparison of their relative molecular species composition with that of the major acinar phospholipids. Both phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PtdEtn) consisted of 1,2-diacyl as well as 1-alk-1-2-acyl species. In contrast, phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns), phosphatidylserine and phosphatidic acid existed only in the 1,2-diacyl form. Acinar cells did not contain detectable amounts of 1-alkyl-2-acyl phospholipids. Similarly, the acinar 1,2-diradylglycerol fraction consisted of 1,2-diacylglycerols and 1-alk-1-enyl-2-acylglycerols. Mass 1,2-diradylglycerol measurements revealed that prolonged stimulation with cholecystokinin resulted in a marked and sustained increase in acinar 1,2-diradylglycerol content. Based on the relative amounts of the 1,2-diacyl species present in both the 1,2-diradylglycerol fraction and the individual phospholipids, it is calculated that under control conditions 60% of the 1,2-diacylglycerols originate from PtdCho and 40% from PtdIns, whereas under stimulatory conditions 53% is calculated to be derived from PtdCho, 46% from PtdIns and 1% from PtdEtn. Likewise, it is calculated that in control as well as stimulated acini 100% of the 1-alk-l-enyl-2-acylglycerols originate from plasmenylcholine. Further evidence in favour of the idea that at least a considerable part of the 1,2-diacylglycerols produced during prolonged hormonal stimulation originate from inositolphospholipids is provided by the observation that labeling of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate with inorganic phosphate reached isotopic equilibrium markedly faster under stimulatory conditions as compared to the control situation, which is in agreement with an elevated turnover rate. The data presented support the idea that PtdCho and inositolphospholipids are the major precursors in basal and stimulated 1,2-diradylglycerol production in rabbit pancreatic acini.

Abstract
Using two newly synthesized inhibitors, Ro 31-8220 and CGP 41,251, of protein kinase C (PKC), we analysed: (1) how distinct PMN functions (shape changes, locomotion, pinocytosis) are regulated, and (2) the role of protein phosphorylation and PKC in this process. We were able to transform: (1) resting PMNs into locomoting cells using fNLPNTL, (2) locomoting cells into non-locomoting highly pinocytic cells using PMA, and (3) PMA-stimulated cells showing marked pinocytosis into locomoting or into resting cells using Ro 31-8220. It is thus possible to selectively manipulate PMN function (resting state, locomotion, marked pinocytosis), indicating that there are different regulatory pathways. It was not possible to induce locomotion and marked pinocytosis simultaneously, indicating crosstalk between pathways. Ro 31-8220 inhibited PMA-induced shape changes (nonpolar cells) and pinocytosis, but not fNLPNTL-induced shape changes (polarity) and pinocytosis. At higher concentrations, Ro 31-8220 alone elicited cell polarity and chemokinesis, indicating that a constitutively active protein kinase is involved in maintaining the spherical shape of resting PMNs. Functional effects of another PKC inhibitor, CGP 41,251, on neutrophil function were strikingly different. CGP 41,251 selectively inhibited fNLPNTL-induced polarity and locomotion (but not colchicine or Ro 31-8220-induced polarity), and it failed to inhibit PMA-induced, stimulated pinocytosis and shape changes. Although the effects of Ro 31-8220 vs. CGP 41,251 on PMN function were strikingly different, the inhibition of profiles for constitutive and for fNLPNTL- or PMA-induced protein phosphorylation in intact PMNs showed only small differences, which could not yet be conclusively related to cell function.

Abstract
Neutrophils from patients with localized juvenile periodontitis (LJP) show several functional abnormalities. Recently, it has become increasingly apparent that the reason for these changes lies in part at the post receptor level of cellular metabolism. In this study we have analyzed intracellular diacylglycerol (DAG), a second messenger and an endogenous activator of protein kinase C, in unstimulated and agonist-stimulated neutrophils, from five LJP patients showing a chemotaxis defect and matched normal individuals. No difference was observed in the basal cellular DAG between the two groups. In neutrophils from LJP patients the DAG levels increased by 67% and 111% from the basal level following stimulation with N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP) and unopsonized zymosan particles, respectively, while in control cells the mean increases were 36% and 65%, respectively. Incubation with serum-opsonized zymosan particles produced an identical rise in DAG in both groups. These data indicate that the stimulation of receptors for FMLP and unopsonized zymosan may produce an enhanced accumulation of DAG in neutrophils from LJP patients. In addition to DAG mass analysis, we determined the effect of R59022, a DAG-kinase inhibitor, on zymosan-stimulated luminol-amplified chemiluminescence (CL) of neutrophils. In control cells R59022 significantly enhanced unopsonized zymosan induced CL, but it had no effect on cells from LJP patients, suggesting a possible change in the regulation of DAG-kinase in LJP.

Abstract
1. We have investigated the susceptibility of ram sperm phospholipase A2 (PLA2) to stimulation by diacyl- and alkylacylglycerols and by monoacyl- and monoalkylglycerols. 2. PLA2 activity in sonicates from ram spermatozoa was enhanced when 1-stearoyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycerol, the diacylglycerol usually generated by polyphosphoinositide breakdown, was added to a radioactive phosphatidylcholine substrate; the effect was time- and Ca(2+)-dependent. 3. Both diacyl- and alkylacylglycerol considerably enhanced PLA2 activity; 1-O-hexadecyl-2-O-methyl-rac-glycerol, however, only showed slight stimulatory ability. 4. The monoradylglycerols 1-monohexadecanoyl-rac-glycerol, 2-monohexadecanoylglycerol, and 1-O-hexadecyl-sn-glycerol had very little effect on the enzyme's activity. 5. Exposure of spermatozoa to 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol (OAG) or 1-O-hexadecyl-2-acetyl-rac-glycerol (1-O-C16/2-C2), when cells were stimulated with the ionophore A23187 and Ca2+, resulted in higher PLA2 activity in sperm sonicates. Furthermore, parallel experiments showed that exocytosis was enhanced if spermatozoa were treated with A23187/Ca2+ and either OAG or 1-O-C16/2-C2. Since both diacyl- and alkylacylglycerols increased PLA2 activity and exocytosis, stimulation of PLA2 activity by these diglycerides may take place independently from protein kinase C activation.

Abstract
The respiratory burst activity in peripheral neutrophils from nine patients with localized juvenile periodontitis (LJP) and age- and sex-matched healthy controls was studied by measuring the intensity of luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence (CL) induced by unopsonized and three differently opsonized zymosan particles, formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP) or phorbol myristate acetate (PMA). The neutrophils from LJP patients showed in general more intense CL with all activators than did their controls. Particularly, the CL response induced by unopsonized zymosan particles and FMLP were significantly higher (p < 0.05 and 0.001). When comparisons were made between female LJP patients (n = 6) and matched controls, also serum-opsonized and IgG-opsonized zymosan particles produced CL was significantly increased (p < 0.05). In order to determine whether the elevated CL responses to zymosan particles were due to altered levels of the interacting receptors on neutrophil surface, an immunofluorescence analysis of the expression of IgG-Fc-receptors (FcR) and complement receptors (CR) was performed with flow cytometry. No significant difference in the expression of FcRII, FcRIII, CR1 and CR3 was detected in LJP group compared to controls. Since the elevated CL responses can not be explained by changes in receptor numbers it is hypothesized that the increased respiratory burst activity in LJP may be caused by altered post receptor signalling pathway.

Abstract
Protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors, staurosporine or 1,5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H7), inhibited NADPH oxidase activity and phosphorylation of 47 kDa protein (p47) in PMA-stimulated neutrophils in a dose-dependent manner. These PKC inhibitors, at the same doses, did not affect oxidase activity and caused only partial inhibition of p47 phosphorylation in OZ-stimulated neutrophils. There was residual (20%) phosphorylated p47 in the membranes of OZ-stimulated cells in the presence of PKC inhibitors, at concentrations which caused total inhibition of oxidase activity and p47 phosphorylation in PMA-stimulated neutrophils. In the presence of ionomycin, which increased intracellular calcium ion concentrations, staurosporine was less effective in inhibiting both superoxide generation and p47 phosphorylation stimulated by PMA, similar to its effect in OZ-stimulated cells. The results indicate that some phosphorylation of p47 always accompanied oxidase activation induced by PMA or OZ, though the degree of phosphorylation of membrane-bound p47 does not directly correlate with rates of superoxide production.

Abstract
The influence of human recombinant granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (rH GM-CSF) on respiratory burst response of isolated human neutrophils was examined. Preincubation of cells with rH GM-CSF significantly increased the respiratory burst in response to formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP), measured by luminol-dependent chemiluminescence (CL) assay. This priming effect of rH GM-CSF was independent of extracellular Ca2+ and Mg2+. On the other hand, the pretreatment of cells with rH GM-CSF could not enhance the neutrophil CL responses to unopsonized, serum complement-opsonized or immunoglobulin G (IgG)-opsonized zymosan particles. rH GM-CSF directly induced a weak CL signal in neutrophils. This signal, however, was abolished when extracellular Ca2+ and Mg2+ were removed. Exposure to rH GM-CSF caused a divalent cation-dependent up-regulation of complement receptors (CR1 and CR3) on neutrophil cell surface, while the expression of IgG Fc-receptors (FcRII and FcRIII) was not markedly changed by rH GM-CSF. The results indicate that rH GM-CSF primes FMLP-induced CL but not zymosan particle-induced respiratory burst in human neutrophils. It is hypothesized that the reason for the different sensitivity of FMLP-receptors and receptors to zymosan particles to rH GM-CSF priming may lie in differences in the signal-transduction pathways of these receptor types.

Abstract
We reported previously that diacylglycerol (diC8) and GTP gamma S synergize with an anionic amphiphile such as sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) to produce high rates of superoxide generation in a cell-free system consisting of neutrophil plasma membrane plus cytosol [Burnham, D. N., Uhlinger, D. J., & Lambeth, J. D. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 17550-17559]. Here we investigate the effects of these activating factors on the plasma membrane association in an in vitro translated radiolabeled recombinant p47-phox protein. Apparent translocation, assayed by cosedimentation with plasma membranes, required the presence of excess cytosol and an anionic amphiphile, was enhanced by both GTP gamma S and diC8, and was inhibited by high salt, correlating qualitatively with activation; up to 70% cosedimentation was observed with the combination of activators (compared with less than 20% in their absence). Similar results were obtained using heat-inactivated cytosol, wherein another oxidase component, p67-phox, has been inactivated. Unexpectedly, from 50 to 80% of the apparent translocation occurred in the absence of membranes, indicating that protein aggregation accounted for a significant part of the observed translocation. Nevertheless, the percent translocation was increased in all cases by the presence of membranes, indicating some degree of protein-membrane interaction. While a control in vitro translated protein failed to translocate, cosedimentation of p47-phox occurred equally well when red blood cell or neutrophil plasma membranes lacking cytochrome b558 were used. Also, the peptide RGVHFIF, which is contained within the C-terminus of the large subunit of cytochrome b558, failed to inhibit translocation/aggregation of p47-phox, despite its ability to inhibit cell-free activation of the oxidase. The data are consistent with the following: (a) SDS, diC8, and GTP gamma S all act on cytosolic components to alter protein-protein and/or protein-membrane associations, and these changes are necessary (but not sufficient) for activation; (b) these altered associations are likely to function by increasing the local concentration of p47-phox and other components at the plasma membrane; (c) a high background of nonspecific associations in the cell-free activation system is likely to obscure any specific, functionally relevant associations (e.g., with cytochrome b558); and (d) the mechanism of translocation in the cell-free system differs from that seen in intact neutrophils.

Abstract
In the last few years, it has become increasingly apparent that the biochemistry of PAF (platelet-activating factor) and that of arachidonic acid are interrelated in a number of inflammatory cells. Experiments presented here further point out that arachidonic acid plays a crucial role in the catabolism and biosynthesis of PAF. In addition, they suggest that the same phospholipid molecular species may serve as a source for both arachidonic acid and 1-alkyl-2-lyso-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine during cell activation. Finally, they reveal that there may be common regulatory mechanisms for the biosynthesis of PAF and arachidonic acid metabolites. Taken together, studies examining the relationship between PAF and arachidonic acid suggest it may be difficult to consider the biochemistry of PAF without considering arachidonic acid metabolism and vice versa.

Abstract
Professional phagocytes (neutrophils, eosinophils, monocytes and macrophages) possess an enzymatic complex, the NADPH oxidase, which is able to catalyze the one-electron reduction of molecular oxygen to superoxide, O2-. The NADPH oxidase is dormant in non-activated phagocytes. It is suddenly activated upon exposure of phagocytes to the appropriate stimuli and thereby contributes to the microbicidal activity of these cells. Oxidase activation in phagocytes involves the assembly, in the plasma membrane, of membrane-bound and cytosolic components of the oxidase complex, which were diassembled in the resting state. One of the membrane-bound components in resting phagocytes has been identified as a low-potential b-type cytochrome, a heterodimer composed of two subunits of 22-kDa and 91-kDa. The link between NADPH and cytochrome b is probably a flavoprotein whose subcellular localization in resting phagocytes remains to be determined. Genetic defects in the cytochrome b subunits and in the cytosolic factors have been shown to be the molecular basis of chronic granulomatous disease, a group of inherited disorders in the host defense, characterized by severe, recurrent bacterial and fungal infections in which phagocytic cells fail to generate O2- upon stimulation. The present review is focused on recent data concerning the signaling pathway which leads to oxidase activation, including specific receptors, the production of second messengers, the organization of the oxidase complex and the molecular defects responsible for granulomatous disease.

Abstract
One aspect of human neutrophil (PMN) function during inflammation is formation of platelet-activating factor (PAF), leukotriene B4 (LTB4), and 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE), but production of these lipid mediators is limited if PMN are directly stimulated with soluble, physiologic agonists. In vitro, PMN activities can be enhanced by the process of primed-stimulation where cells are sequentially treated with non-stimulatory concentrations of different agonists. Many agents that prime PMN also induce production of 1,2-diacyl- and 1-O-alkyl-2-acylglycerols. Therefore, we investigated whether diglycerides were involved in priming PMN for production of lipid mediators. We previously described the ability of the diacylglycerol, 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol (OAG), and its alkylacylglycerol analog, 1-O-octadecenyl-2-acetylglycerol (EAG), to prime phospholipase A2 (PLA2) for subsequent activation by a second stimulus. However, while OAG also primed 5-lipoxygenase activity (LTB4 and 5-HETE production), EAG priming inhibited LTB4 and 5-HETE formation. We now report the effects of diglyceride priming on acetyltransferase activation (PAF formation). PMN, prelabeled with 1-O-[9',10'-3H]hexadecyl-2-lyso-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, were primed with OAG or EAG before stimulation. Neither OAG nor EAG induced formation of labeled PAF. Treatment of PMN with the chemotactic peptide, N-formyl-met-leu-phe (FMLP), induced low but significant production of PAF; PAF formation doubled in PMN primed with 20 microM OAG before FMLP stimulation while priming with 20 microM EAG more than tripled the level of PAF. Calcium ionophore strongly induced PAF formation; OAG priming before ionophore challenge had no effect but EAG priming further enhanced PAF formation. These results suggests a role for alkylacylglycerols in modulating the production of lipid mediators of inflammation.

Abstract
1. The fungal metabolite, wortmannin, has recently been shown to inhibit fMet-Leu-Phe-stimulated superoxide production and phospholipase D (PLD) activation in the human neutrophil. 2. We have found that a close structural analogue of wortmannin, demethoxyviridin, has a similar inhibitory profile but in addition blocks phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate-specific phospholipase C and hence inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) formation. 3. Inhibition of fMet-Leu-Phe-stimulated PLD by demethoxyviridin was characteristically non-competitive (IC50 = 31 +/- 10 nM). 4. Inhibition of fMet-Leu-Phe-stimulation IP3 formation required concentrations almost 10 times higher (IC50 = 250 +/- 130 nM). 5. Surprisingly, demethoxyviridin only inhibited fMet-Leu-Phe-induced intracellular calcium mobilization at concentrations 100 times greater than those needed to block IP3 formation. 6. Demethoxyviridin also inhibited PLD activation induced by sodium fluoride or phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) but the concentrations required were 100 times those needed to block fMet-Leu-Phe-stimulated PLD. 7. These observations support the contention that PLD plays an important role in signal transduction in the human neutrophil and indicate that wortmannin and demethoxyviridin inhibit PLD activation at a common step in the signalling pathway. 8. Furthermore, these results suggest that demethoxyviridin may block the interaction between the chemotactic peptide receptor and a GTP-binding protein that is intimately involved in PLD activation.

Abstract
Diacylglycerols (OAG, diC8) and PMA were found to stimulate fluid pinocytosis (net uptake of FITC-dextran) to a far greater extent than other neutrophil activators, such as the chemotactic agents fNLPNTL and LTB4, the microtubule disassembling agents colchicine and nocodazole, the kinase inhibitor H-7, or D2O. OAG and diC8 produce a dose-dependent increase in the uptake of FITC-dextran, which is up to about 25- to 30-fold the control value of unstimulated neutrophils. The protein kinase inhibitor H-7 alone had a small stimulating effect on the net uptake, and it failed to inhibit stimulation of fluid pinocytosis by PMA, OAG, and diC8. Also, the protein kinase inhibitor staurosporine failed to inhibit fluid pinocytosis stimulated by OAG, diC8, and PMA. Stimulated fluid pinocytosis and vacuolization in response to PMA or diacylglycerols is associated with surface ruffling of neutrophils. Pinocytosis as well as surface ruffling stimulated by PMA, OAG, diC8, or diC10 are suppressed in the presence of cytochalasin D. The results suggest that diacylglycerols may be instrumental in transducing the signal for stimulated pinocytosis and that the surface movements induced by diacylglycerols, and PMA may be instrumental in fluid pinocytosis.

Abstract
In contrast to the rapid, ethanol-inhibited superoxide generation by the receptor-linked agonist formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP), fluoride-activated superoxide generation occurs after a prolonged lag, and as shown herein is relatively ethanol-insensitive. We have investigated fluoride-activation of diradylglycerol generation and phospholipase D activity. Fluoride induces a very large increase in diradylglycerol mass (both 1,2-diacylglycerol (DAG) and 1-O-alkyl,2-acylglycerol (EAG)), with kinetics similar to superoxide generation. Unlike fMLP-activated diglyceride generation which is completely inhibited by ethanol, that produced by fluoride is only partially (30%) blocked. When the phosphatidylcholine pool is 3H-prelabeled, fluoride activates both [3H]phosphatidic acid (PA) and [3H]diglyceride generation with similar kinetics. Partial inhibition of the production of these species by ethanol was seen, coincident with the appearance of [3H]phosphatidylethanol, indicating phospholipase D-dependent transphosphatidylation had occurred. The data are consistent with the fluoride activation of PA and diglyceride generation by both phospholipase D-dependent and -independent (presumably phospholipase C) mechanisms.

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
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.
