Opsonized zymosan-stimulated granulocytes-activation and activity of the superoxide-generating system and membrane potential changes

Abstract: Phagocytic cells generate superoxide in response to stimulation by opsonized particles. A continuous assay for opsonized zymosan- stimulated granulocyte superoxide production shows that there is a lag time between the addition of particles and the onset of detectable superoxide production. Superoxide production is preceded by membrane potential depolarization. Neither superoxide production nor membrane depolarization occurs in granulocytes from patients with chronic granulomatous disease. The extent of activat… Show more

“…Cells were pelleted onto glass slides with a cytocentrifuge, fixed for 2 minutes in methanol, and counterstained with safrinin for 2 minutes. At least 200 cells/sample were scored for the presence of purple black formazan precipitate (Cohen et al, 1981).…”

“…Dependence of PMNL membrane depolarization on extracellular Na+ and K+ It has previously been demonstrated that the relative changes in diSC3-6) fluorescence upon cell stimulation can be used to measure changes in the transmembrane potential of human platelets (Horne and Simons, 1978;Greenberg-Sepersky and Simons, 1984;Greenberg-Sepersky and Simons, 1985) and PMNL (Seligman et al, 1980;Whitin et al, 1980;Cohen et al, 1981;Jones et al, 1981;Simchowitz et al, 1982). In parallel with platelets, for which the rate of stimulus-induced efflux of diSC3-(Ei) is a more consistent measure of the response than the overall relative extent of the change (Greenberg-Sepersky and Simons, 19841, the PMNL response can be quantitated in terms of the rate of fluorescence change.…”

“…Our studies aim to clarify the role of Na+ and K + transmembrane gradients in the immune complex-stimulated transmembrane potential change and the activation of the respiratory burst of human PMNL prepared by water or NH&1 lysis techniques. 01988 ALAN R. LISS, INC. It has been demonstrated that a change in the resting membrane potential, detectable within seconds after stimulus addition and dependent upon the Na+/K+ transmembrane gradients, occurs with virtually all stimuli but is not necessary for cell stimulation (Korchak and Weissman, 1978;Whitin et al, 1980;Seligman et al, 1980;Cohen et al, 1981) since unopsonized Candida albicans hyphae bypass this step (Lyman et al, 1987). Recent studies have documented a rapid release of intracellular stores of calcium ions accompanying PMNL activation (White et al, 1983;Korchak et al, 1984;Apfeldorf et al, 1985;Lazzari et al, 1986) by several stimuli but not by phorbol myristate 13-acetate (PMA) (Lehrmeyer et al, 1979).…”

“…This represents <0.01% of the 3 9 10 10 electrons translocated by a human eosinophil during the respiratory burst (42). One consequence is that a number of careful studies published between 1978 and 1983 concluded that membrane depolarization was the trigger for the respiratory burst because measurable depolarization preceded detectable superoxide production (145)(146)(147)(148)(149)(150)(151). Of course, thanks to the incisive studies of Henderson, Chappell, and colleagues (1-3), we now know that the opposite is the casedepolarization is a direct consequence of the electrogenic activity of NADPH oxidase.…”
