Abstract
Autophagy occurs in human neutrophils after the phagocytosis of multidrug-resistant bacteria and drug-sensitive strains, including Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The present study detected autophagy by immunoblot analysis of LC3B conversion, by confocal scanning microscopic examination of LC3B aggregate formation and by transmission electron microscopic examination of bacteria-containing autophagosomes. Patients with severe bacterial infections are often treated with IVIG alongside antimicrobial agents. Here, we showed that IVIG induced neutrophil-mediated phagocytosis of multidrug-resistant strains. Compared with untreated neutrophils, neutrophils exposed to IVIG showed increased levels of bacterial cell killing, phagocytosis, O(2)(-) release, MPO release, and NET formation. IVIG also increased autophagy in these cells. Inhibiting the late phase of autophagy (fusion of lysosomes with autophagosomes) with bafilomycin A1-reduced, neutrophil-mediated bactericidal activity. These findings indicate that autophagy plays a critical role in the bactericidal activity mediated by human neutrophils. Furthermore, the autophagosomes within the neutrophils contained bacteria only and their organelles only, or both bacteria and their organelles, a previously undocumented observation. Taken together, these results suggest that the contents of neutrophil autophagosomes may be derived from specific autophagic systems, which provide the neutrophil with an advantage. Thus, IVIG promotes the neutrophil-mediated killing of multidrug-resistant bacteria as well as drug-sensitive strains.

Abstract
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and the concomitant decline in the ratio of reduced glutathione (GSH) to oxidized glutathione (GSSG) were demonstrated in human monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DC). Further, their relation to the maturation of DC, characterized by the production of cytokines, up-regulation of cell surface molecules and allo-stimulatory capacity, was examined. The LPS-induced ROS generation was demonstrated using electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy in intact cells, and was also confirmed using laser scanning confocal microscopy. The GSH/GSSG was assesed using a glutathione assay kit. When the DC were treated with alpha-phenyl-tert-butylnitrone, the ROS generation was attenuated, but the declined GSH/GSSG was not attenuated, and only cytokine production was suppressed among the above-mentioned maturation characteristics. When the DC were treated with glutathione monoethyl ester, both the ROS generation and the declined GSH/GSSG were attenuated, and the maturation characteristics were all suppressed. These findings suggest that the LPS-induced ROS generation and the concomitant decline in GSH/GSSG occur in human monocyte-derived DC and that the former is involved in cytokine production, while the latter is involved in the up-regulation of cell surface molecules and allo-stimulatory capacity. Since the cytokine production and the allo-stimulatory capacity of DC play an important role in inflammatory and immune responses, differential regulation of the ROS generation and the declined GSH/GSSG may be useful as therapeutic tools in diseases where both responses become entangled, such as sepsis and graft-versus-host disease.

Abstract
Granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) inhibits Fas-induced apoptosis of neutrophils. However, the exact step in the apoptotic pathway blocked by GM-CSF remained unclear. Here, we found that pretreatment of neutrophils with GM-CSF inhibits the recruitment of Fas-associated protein with death domain (FADD) to Fas, abolishing the formation of the death-inducing signaling complex required for Fas-induced apoptosis. Two-dimensional electrophoresis revealed that GM-CSF modifies the ratio of FADD subspecies. These GM-CSF-triggered changes were abrogated, and Fas-induced apoptosis was restored by an inhibitor of classical protein kinase C (PKC), Go6976, and by the combination of a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI-3K) inhibitor, LY294002, and an inhibitor of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK)1, PD98059. Go6976 blocked GM-CSF-elicited phosphorylation of Akt/PKB and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)1/2. These results indicated that GM-CSF suppresses Fas-induced neutrophil apoptosis by inhibiting FADD binding to Fas, through redundant actions of PI-3K and MEK1-ERK1/2 pathways downstream of classical PKC.

Abstract
The intracellular generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by 6-formylpterin and its effects on the human T cell functions were examined in vitro. When T cells isolated from fresh blood were incubated with 6-formylpterin for 1hr, the oxygen consumption and concomitant ROS generation were observed. The incubation of T cells with 50-500microM 6-formylpterin for 24hr brought about the elevation of intracellular ROS without inducing cell death. In contrast, the incubation of T cells with exogenously administered hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) or other pterin derivatives (6-hydroxymethylpterin, pterin-6-carboxylic acid, pterin, neopterin, biopterin and folic acid) for 24hr did not cause the intracellular ROS elevation. In the T cells stimulated with mitogenic lectin phytohemagglutinin (PHA) in conjunction with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), 6-formylpterin suppressed the NF-kappaB-dependent transcription, the production of cytokines (IFN-gamma and IL-2) and the cell proliferation. These suppressive effects of 6-formylpterin were all reversed by N-acetyl-l-cystein (NAC). However, 6-formylpterin did not inhibit the NF-kappaB-DNA binding of the nuclear extracts obtained from the PHA/PMA-stimulated T cells. Since the NF-kappaB-DNA binding assay performed in vitro merely shows the presence or absence of NF-kappaB subunit in the nuclear extracts but not guarantees the actual binding of NF-kappaB with DNA in the nucleus, these findings suggest that intracellular ROS generated by 6-formylpterin does not affect the translocation of NF-kappaB to the nucleus but that it inhibits the NF-kappaB-dependent transcription in the nucleus, resulting in the suppression of cytokine production and cell proliferation in the activated T cells.

Abstract
The intracellular generation of hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) by 6-formylpterin and its effects on the cell surface exposure of phosphatidylserine (PS) as a marker of cell death were examined in human peripheral blood leukocytes, and the effects were compared with those of exogenously administered H(2)O(2). Neutrophils, monocytes and lymphocytes were isolated from fresh blood, and cultured for 24 h in vitro. In neutrophils, the intracellular H(2)O(2) generation was observed when the cells were incubated with 100-500 microM 6-formylpterin, and the PS exposure due to spontaneous apoptosis was inhibited. The underlying mechanism of the inhibition was attributed to the suppression of both activation and activity of caspase-3. On the other hand, exogenously administered 100 microM H(2)O(2) did not affect the PS exposure. The intracellular H(2)O(2) generation was also observed in monocytes and lymphocytes. In monocytes, 500 microM 6-formylpterin induced more PS exposure than 100 microM H(2)O(2) did. In lymphocytes, up to 500 microM 6-formylpterin did not induce conspicuous PS exposure, while 100 microM H(2)O(2) induced severe PS exposure. These findings indicated that the resistance against an internal and external source of H(2)O(2) are different among leukocytes, for example, lymphocytes are poorly resistant against external H(2)O(2) but highly resistant against internal one.

Abstract
Neutrophil motility is crucial to effective host defenses against microorganisms. While uropod retraction is a critical step in the migration of neutrophils, the underlying molecular mechanism is not well understood. Here, we show that inhibition of the Rho small GTPase with C3 exoenzyme prevented the retraction of trailing uropods, indicating that the process of rear release is mediated by a Rho signaling pathway. C3 exoenzyme caused marked elongation of directionally migrating neutrophils, suggesting an additional role for Rho in the maintenance of functional polarized cell shape. We also show that phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of the plasma membrane-actin filament cross-linker moesin are spatiotemporally controlled in migrating neutrophils. In particular, phosphorylation of moesin at threonine 558 depended on Rho activity. Videomicroscopy showed that dephosphorylation of this carboxy-terminal threonine preceded uropod retraction. Calyculin A, an inhibitor of type 1 and type 2A serine/threonine phosphatases, suppressed the moesin dephosphorylation and impaired uropod retraction in a dose-dependent manner. Cypermethrin, an inhibitor of type 2B serine/threonine phosphatase, had no such effects. The finding that Rho small GTPase and type 1/type 2A phosphatases are involved in rear release yields novel insights into the biochemical mechanisms of neutrophil migration.

Abstract
The effects of 6-formylpterin on the impaired bactericidal activity of human neutrophils were examined ex vivo. When neutrophils isolated from fresh blood were incubated with 6-formylpterin, the intracellular production of hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) occurred. The H(2)O(2) generation by 6-formylpterin in neutrophils occurred in the presence of diphenyleneiodonium (DPI), an inhibitor of NADPH-oxidase. When neutrophils were incubated with DPI, the killing rate of catalase-positive bacteria, Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), significantly decreased. This impaired bactericidal activity of the DPI-treated neutrophils was a mimic for chronic granulomatous disease (CGD). However, the killing rate of the DPI-treated neutrophils against E. coli and S. aureus significantly increased when 6-formylpterin was administered. Since 6-formylpterin intracellularly generates H(2)O(2) independent from the NADPH-oxidase, it was considered to improve the impaired bactericidal activity of the DPI-treated neutrophils. The use of 6-formylpterin may serve as an option of therapy for CGD.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor- (TNF-) exerts two separate effects on neutrophils, stimulating effector functions while simultaneously inducing apoptosis. We examined here the involvement of caspases in neutrophil apoptosis and the effect of TNF-–induced apoptosis on reactive oxygen production. Immunoblotting and affinity labeling showed activation of caspase-8, caspase-3, and a caspase with a large subunit of 18 kD (T18) in TNF-–treated neutrophils. Active caspase-6 and -7 were not detectable in this cell type. Caspase-8 activated caspase-3 and T18 in neutrophil cytoplasmic extracts. zVAD-fmk blocked neutrophil apoptosis, in parallel with the inhibition of caspase activation. TNF-–induced caspase activation was accompanied by a decrease in the ability of neutrophils to release superoxide anion. Conversely, TNF- treatment in the presence of zVAD-fmk caused a prolonged augmentation of superoxide release. Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor inhibited TNF-–induced caspase activation and apoptosis, while reversing the diminution in superoxide release. These observations not only suggest that a caspase cascade mediates apoptotic events and downregulates oxygen radical production in TNF-–treated neutrophils, but also raise the possibility that suppression of caspase activation with enhanced proinflammatory actions of TNF- may underlie the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Abstract
TNF-α is implicated in the initiation of cytokine cascades in various inflammatory settings. To assess the interactions of multiple cytokines at the level of inflammatory effector cells, we examined the effects of TNF-α on the expression of two IL-8Rs (CXCR1 and CXCR2) on polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs). TNF-α decreased the surface expression of CXCR2 in a dose- and time-dependent manner. In contrast, CXCR1 expression was not affected by TNF-α. The release of CXCR2 into the supernatant of TNF-α-treated PMNs was detected by immunoblotting and immuno-slot-blot analyses, suggesting that the down-regulation of CXCR2 was caused mainly by shedding from the cell surface. The CXCR2 down-regulation was inhibited by PMSF and aprotinin, supporting the hypothesis that the shedding was mediated by serine protease(s). The intracellular Ca2+ mobilization and chemotaxis in response to IL-8 were suppressed by the pretreatment of PMNs with TNF-α, indicating that the decrease in CXCR2 was reflected in the decreased functional responses to IL-8. In contrast, the O2− release, which is mediated by CXCR1, was not suppressed by TNF-α. The treatment of whole blood with TNF-α also caused a significant reduction in CXCR2 and markedly suppressed intracellular Ca2+ mobilization and chemotaxis in response to IL-8, while enhancing the O2− release. These findings suggest that TNF-α down-regulates CXCR2 expression on PMNs and modulates IL-8-induced biologic responses, leading to the intravascular retention of PMNs with an enhanced production of reactive oxygen metabolites.

Abstract
Human alpha-thrombin was a chemoattractant for human neutrophils yielding a maximal response of similar magnitude to that observed with formyl-Met-Leu-Phe. The observed chemotaxis was not due to stimulation of the proteolytically activated thrombin receptor since: (1) this receptor was not detected by flow cytometry; (2) the inactive thrombin mutant Ser195-->Ala elicited a chemotactic response indistinguishable from that caused by wild-type thrombin; (3) antibodies to the cleavage site of the proteolytically activated receptor did not affect thrombin-induced chemotaxis; (4) a thrombin receptor activating peptide (TRAP) failed to stimulate chemotaxis. These data indicate the existence of a thrombin receptor for neutrophil chemotaxis which is not activated by proteolysis. In addition, although wild-type and ser195-->Ala thrombin did not cause an increase in intracellular Ca2+, a Ca2+ response to TRAP was observed with neutrophils from some donors. The TRAP-induced increase in Ca2+ was reproducible, dose dependent and specific. The use of alanine-substituted peptides demonstrated that the Ca2+ response was due to TRAP stimulation of a receptor other than the proteolytically activated thrombin receptor. Thus, it is necessary to re-evaluate the assumption made in previous studies that responses to TRAP are mediated by the proteolytically activated thrombin receptor.
