Prostaglandins E1 and E2 enhance the stimulation of superoxide release by 1‐oleoyl‐2‐acetylglycerol from human neutrophils

Superoxide release from human neutrophils was stimulated either by receptor activation (using fMet‐Leu‐Phe) or by activating, independently, each of the two pathways considered to be involved in signal transduction‐calcium mobilization (using the ionophore, A23187) and protein kinase C activation (u...

Description
Summary:Superoxide release from human neutrophils was stimulated either by receptor activation (using fMet‐Leu‐Phe) or by activating, independently, each of the two pathways considered to be involved in signal transduction‐calcium mobilization (using the ionophore, A23187) and protein kinase C activation (using phorbol myristate acetate or 1‐oleoyl‐2‐acetylglycerol). Prostaglandin E1 (3 × 10−5 M) decreased fMet‐Leu‐Phe‐stimulated superoxide release, had no effect on superoxide release stimulated by A23187, or by phorbol myristate acetate, and markedly enhanced the superoxide release stimulated by 1‐oleoyl‐2‐acetylglycerol. Similar enhancement was obtained with prostaglandin E2.
