“…Under normal circumstances, leukocytes stimulated with receptor-mediated stimuli, including PAF and FMLP, or with submaximal concentrations of calcium ionophore generate litde or undetectable amounts of eicosanoids unless the cells are first primed (37,38). Priming is therefore a critical step in the activation of PMN during inflammation and has been the subject of several investigations.…”

“…[192][193][194][195][196] Alkylglycerols have been suggested to play a role in modulating the production of lipid mediators of inflammation by priming PLA 2 , 5-lipoxygenase, and acetyltransferase activation in PMN. 197 PLA 2 in rabbit and human PMN may also contribute to the bactericidal activity of these cells by hydrolyzing PLs. [198][199][200] PLA 2 activity has been demonstrated both in human and rabbit neutrophils.…”

“…Activation of 5-LO in the cell involves the initial conversion of the active site iron from the ferrous to the ferric state and is accompanied by a translocation process of the enzyme to the nuclear membrane, where it cofunctions with the 5-LO-activating protein (for review, see Werz, 2002). Such an initial cellular activation of 5-LO can be mediated by elevated Ca 2ϩ levels and/or 5-LO phosphorylation at serine residues by members of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family (Werz, 2002), as well as by DAGs, such as 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol (Bauldry et al, 1991;Albert et al, 2003). In fact, several stimuli capable to induce 5-LO product synthesis, including ligands of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) but also nonreceptor-coupled stimuli such as thapsigargin or ionophores, elevate [Ca 2ϩ ] i , cause formation of DAGs, and stimulate MAPKs.…”
