Effect of leukotriene B4, prostaglandin E2 and arachidonic acid on cytosolic-free calcium in human neutrophils.

P D Lew, J M Dayer, C B Wollheim, T Pozzan.   

Abstract

Changes in cytosolic free calcium [Ca2+]i and release of beta-glucuronidase in response to leukotriene B4 (LTB4) were measured in intact neutrophils loaded with the fluorescent Ca2+ indicator, quin 2. LTB4 (10(-10) M or higher) caused a rapid rise in [Ca2+]i due to influx from the extracellular medium and release from intracellular pools as well as enzyme release. PGE2 (3 microM) did not alter [Ca2+]i whereas arachidonic acid (10 microM) raised [Ca2+]i. Pretreatment of cells with the chemotactic peptide FMLP inhibited the subsequent rise of [Ca2+]i induced by LTB4. Since chemotactic peptides activate the lipoxygenase pathway of arachidonic acid metabolism, it may be speculated that endogenous LTB4 generation is involved in neutrophil activation.
