Synergism between phorbol ester and A23187 in Superoxide production by neutrophils

Abstract: Concentrations of phorbol myristate acetate and the calcium ionophore, A23 187, which by themselves are minimally effective in stimulating superoxide generation in human neutrophils show marked mutual potentiation when given together. This supports the hypothesis that synergism between cytosolic calcium and protein kinase C is involved in the stimulus/activation coupling of the respiratory burst in the neutrophil.

“…This inhibitory effect of PMA on chemokinesis is in sharp contrast to its previously recognised ability to enhance the effects of neutrophil stimulants on other neutrophil functions such as superoxide generation and enzyme secretion occurring at higher stimulant doses (e.g., Gallin et al, 1978;Kajikawa et al, 1983;O'Flaherty et al, 1984;Dale & Penfield, 1984;Blackwell et al, 1985) and shown in Figure lb and (Nishizuka, 1984). Furthermore, there is a recent report which contradicts the general conclusion from the studies cited above, in that PMA at concentrations of 16 nM or more preincubated with rabbit neutrophils for 1 to 5 min inhibited their subsequent ability to release lysozomal and azurophil enzymes in response to FMLP, C5a and leukotriene B4 (Naccache et al, 1985).…”

“…Role in other cellular functions. In addition to exocytosis and cell division, protein kinase C has been suggested to regulate other cellular functions such as glycogenolysis in hepatocytes [74], superoxide generation in neutrophils [75,76], and contraction of smooth muscle [77]. Presumably, protein kinase C may be related to the regulation of a wide variety of cellular functions that are elicited by extracellular signals listed in Table I, and the role of protein kinase C in transmembrane signaling will be more definitely clarified in the near future.…”

“…We report that PGEz had different effects in each case and the results might provide a clue as to its site of action in stimulus-activation coupling. at 37"C, the reaction was stopped and the amount of 0: generated measured as in [15]. All reagents were obtained from Sigma, except OAG which was synthesized by Dr A. Watts, Biochemistry Department, University of Oxford, England.…”
