Zymosan-triggered tyrosine phosphorylation in mouse bone-marrow-derived macrophages is enhanced by respiratory-burst priming agents.

ABSTRACT: We have investigated the relationship between tyrosine phosphorylation and respiratory-burst activity in mouse bone-marrow-derived macrophages (BMM). We demonstrate that zymosan, an agent known to trigger the macrophage respiratory burst, also triggers the activation of tyrosine kinase activity, resulting in rapid tyrosine phosphorylation on numerous proteins, and provide evidence for the role of tyrosine phosphorylation in the triggering of the BMM respiratory burst. Agents, such as tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha), interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) or lipopolysaccharide (LPS), which prime the macrophage for an enhanced zymosan-triggered respiratory burst, increase tyrosine phosphorylation triggered by zymosan. The zymosan-triggered tyrosine phosphorylation and respiratory-burst activity were partially suppressed by the tyrosine kinase inhibitors alpha-cyano-3-ethoxy-4-hydroxy-5-phenylmethylcinnamide (ST638) and herbimycin A. In addition, pre-exposure of BMM to vanadate, a phosphotyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, greatly enhanced the ability of zymosan to induce tyrosine phosphorylation and trigger the respiratory burst. These data highlight the importance of the balance between tyrosine kinase and phosphotyrosine phosphatase activity in determining the ultimate level of tyrosine phosphorylation in BMM and suggest that zymosan-triggered tyrosine phosphorylation is an important biochemical signal for triggering of the respiratory burst.

Granule exocytosis contributes to priming and activation of the human neutrophil respiratory burst.

Project description:The role of exocytosis in the human neutrophil respiratory burst was determined using a fusion protein (TAT-SNAP-23) containing the HIV transactivator of transcription (TAT) cell-penetrating sequence and the N-terminal SNARE domain of synaptosome-associated protein-23 (SNAP-23). This agent inhibited stimulated exocytosis of secretory vesicles and gelatinase and specific granules but not azurophil granules. GST pulldown showed that TAT-SNAP-23 bound to the combination of vesicle-associated membrane protein-2 and syntaxin-4 but not to either individually. TAT-SNAP-23 reduced phagocytosis-stimulated hydrogen peroxide production by 60% without affecting phagocytosis or generation of HOCl within phagosomes. TAT-SNAP-23 had no effect on fMLF-stimulated superoxide release but significantly inhibited priming of this response by TNF-? and platelet-activating factor. Pretreatment with TAT-SNAP-23 inhibited the increase in plasma membrane expression of gp91(phox) in TNF-?-primed neutrophils, whereas TNF-? activation of ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK was not affected. The data demonstrate that neutrophil granule exocytosis contributes to phagocytosis-induced respiratory burst activity and plays a critical role in priming of the respiratory burst by increasing expression of membrane components of the NADPH oxidase.

Zymosan stimulation of MyD88-deficient bone marrow-derived macrophages

Project description:Innate immune pattern recognition receptors play critical roles in pathogen detection and initiation of antimicrobial responses. We and others have previously demonstrated the importance of the beta-glucan receptor Dectin-1 in the recognition of pathogenic fungi by macrophages and dendritic cells, and have elucidated some of the mechanisms by which Dectin-1 signals to coordinate the antifungal response. While Dectin-1 signals alone are sufficient to trigger phagocytosis and Src-Syk-mediated induction of antimicrobial reactive oxygen species, collaboration with Toll-like receptor (TLR)2 signaling enhances NF-kB activation and regulates cytokine production. In this study we demonstrate that Dectin-1 signaling can also directly modulate gene expression via activation of nuclear transcription of activated T cells (NFAT) transcription factors. Dectin-1 ligation by zymosan particles or live Candida albicans yeast triggers NFAT activation in macrophages and dendritic cells. Dectin-1-triggered NFAT activation plays a role in the induction of Egr2 and Egr3 transcription factors, and cyclooxygenase 2 (Cox-2). Furthermore, we show that NFAT activation regulates IL-2, IL-10 and IL-12 p70 production by zymosan-stimulated dendritic cells. These data establish NFAT activation in myeloid cells as a novel mechanism of regulation of the innate antimicrobial response. Keywords: stress response

Biodegradation of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes in Macrophages through Respiratory Burst Modulation.

Project description:The biodegradation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) may be one of major determinants of the toxic outcomes in exposed individuals. In this study, we employed a macrophage/monocyte model, Raw264.7, to investigate the feasibility of regulating the biodegradation of three types of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) (pristine, ox-, and OH-SWCNTs) by respiratory burst modulation. An artificial fluid mimicking the enzymatic reactions of respiratory burst was constituted to reveal the role of respiratory burst played in SWCNT biodegradation. The biodegradation of SWCNTs were characterized by Raman, ultraviolet-visible-near-infrared spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. Our results showed significantly accelerated biodegradation of ox-SWCNTs and OH-SWCNTs in macrophages activated by phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), which could be prevented by N-acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC), whereas p-SWCNTs were resistant to biodegradation. Similar tendencies were observed by using the in vitro enzymatic system, and the degradation rates of these SWCNTs are in the order of OH-SWCNTs > ox-SWCNTs >> p-SWCNTs, suggesting a pivotal role of respiratory burst in accelerating the biodegradation of SWCNTs and that defect sites on SWCNTs might be a prerequisite for the biodegradation to occur. Our findings might provide invaluable clues on the development of intervention measurements for relieving the side effects of SWCNTs and would help to design safer SWCNT products with higher biodegradability and less toxicity.

Guanine nucleotides induce tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of the respiratory burst in neutrophils.

Project description:Activation of the NADPH oxidase was examined in electrically permeabilized human neutrophils exposed to non-hydrolysable guanine nucleotides. Guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]) induced a marked increase in the rate of O2 consumption, which was partially resistant to staurosporine, an inhibitor of protein kinase C, under conditions where the response to diacylglycerol was virtually abolished. The respiratory burst elicited by GTP[S] was dependent on the presence of ATP and Mg2+, suggesting involvement of phosphorylation reactions. Accordingly, phosphoprotein formation was greatly stimulated by the guanine nucleotide. The polypeptide phosphorylation pattern induced by GTP[S] was similar to, but not identical with, that observed with diacylglycerol, indicating the activation of kinases other than protein kinase C by the guanine nucleotide. The possible involvement of tyrosine kinases was assessed by immunoblotting using anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies. Treatment of electroporated cells with GTP[S] stimulated the accumulation of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins. This effect was not induced by diacylglycerol, indicating that tyrosine phosphorylation is not secondary to stimulation of protein kinase C. The results indicate that, in neutrophils, activated G-proteins can stimulate tyrosine kinase and/or inhibit tyrosine phosphatase activity. Changes in the amounts of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins may signal activation of the respiratory burst.

Oxidative damage and respiratory burst in Multiple Sclerosis

Project description:In this project we focused on white matter injury in relapsing remitting MS. We concentrated on material obtained from patients who suffered from fulminant active MS to identify possible sources for ROS production in relation to demyelination and neurodegeneration. To identify possible sources for ROS production in relation to demyelination and neurodegeneration in MS, we used genome wide microarray analysis of gene expression in carefully dissected lesion areas of patients with fulminant acute MS. Preceding the gene expression profiling all cases were characterized histologically and areas of interest were identified. We included 4 control cases, 2 active MS cases were we separated 3 distinct lesions areas (NAWM, initial lesion and early demyelinated lesion) and 1 active MS case were we separated 2 distinct lesion areas (NAWM and early demyelinated lesion). The RNA was isolated from those areas, amplified and hybridized to Agilent G4112A whole genome microarrays.

Phosphorylation of the subunits of cytochrome b-245 upon triggering of the respiratory burst of human neutrophils and macrophages.

Project description:Cytochrome b-245, the only clearly identified component of the microbicidal oxidase system of phagocytes, is a heterodimer consisting of a 23 kDa (alpha) and a 76-92 kDa (beta) subunit. This study was conducted to examine whether, in common with a number of proteins, the subunits of the cytochrome were phosphorylated upon activation of the oxidase. Both subunits were phosphorylated after activation of neutrophils or macrophages with phorbol myristate acetate or a phagocytic stimulus, although the time course of this process did not parallel that of the oxidase. Phosphorylation of these proteins was normal in cells from two patients with autosomal recessive chronic granulomatous disease, in whom phosphorylation of a 47 kDa protein is defective.

Glucan receptor and zymosan-induced lysosomal enzyme secretion in macrophages.

Project description:A receptor for beta-glucan was in the present study shown to mediate binding of zymosan particles to resident mouse peritoneal macrophages. Lysosomal enzyme secretion in response to zymosan was maximal at a low particle/cell ratio, continuous for at least 3 h after particle/cell contact and inhibitable by soluble glucan. Latex particles of various size caused no selective secretory response, but at high particle/cell ratios were toxic. By use of a fluorescent ligand, the macrophage beta-glucan receptor was shown to be trypsin-sensitive, Ca2+/Mg(2+)-independent, recirculating and also present in an intracellular mobilizable pool. Binding of ligand to the beta-glucan receptor and inhibition of the lysosomal secretory response to zymosan were both more efficient with glucans of larger size, indicating that clustering of glucan receptors at the cell surface occurs. Such clustering could stabilize ligand binding by multiple interactions and possibly trigger intracellular signaling events on binding of zymosan particles.

Molecular basis of respiratory burst-mediated thermotolerance in Arabidopsis

Project description:We have been determining signalling components essential for heat tolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana (Larkindale, J., and Knight, M.R. (2002). Protection against heat stress-induced oxidative damage in Arabidopsis involves calcium, abscisic acid, ethylene, and salicylic acid. Plant Physiol 128, 682-695). We have most recently found that a heat-induced respiratory burst is necessary for tolerance to high temperatures in Arabidopsis (Larkindale, Torres, Jones and Knight, unpublished). We have observed that one of the Arabidopsis respiratory burst homologues, AtrbohB, is necessary for the generation of this AOS burst in response to heat, and consequently we have also found that an AtrbohB null mutant shows reduced tolerance to heating (Larkindale, Torres, Jones and Knight, unpublished). This mutant also shows reduced expression of genes from the HSP90 family (Evans, Larkindale and Knight, unpublished).This application is for transcriptomic analysis of the AtrbohB null mutant in response to heat, in order to understand which genes are activated as a result of heat-induced respiratory bursts in Arabidopsis and also which genes are necessary for physiological thermotolerance in Arabidopsis. The experiment will involve 6 samples (chips), 3 from wild type Columbia and 3 from the AtrbohB null mutant. Seedlings will be treated at 20, 30 and 40 degrees centigrade for 1 hour, RNA extracted and submitted to microarray analysis. One hour treatment has been shown to display clear differences in HSP90 expression and physiological damage, and the temperatures chosen because 30 degrees is a temperature at which acquired thermotolerance can be initiated (thus genes involved in this process can be monitored) and 40 degrees is a temperature at which we observe physiological damage, and gives good discrimination between mutant and wild type.
