Abstract
T lymphocytes prelabeled with [14C] arachidonic acid failed to synthesize any eicosanoids even following stimulation with phytohemagglutinin, but they did release free [14C] arachidonic acid. Co-culture of unlabeled monocytes with the prelabeled T lymphocytes resulted in the synthesis of [14C] thromboxane B2, a major monocyte-derived eicosanoid. These data show that monocytes can utilize T lymphocyte-derived arachidonic acid for the synthesis of eicosanoids.Entities:
