Abstract
A ‘cocktail’ consisting of an inhibitor of diacylglycerol kinase (R59022, 10 μM), an inhibitor of diacylglycerol lipase (RHC80267, 10 μM), and an inhibitor of phospholipase A2 (either 100 μM indomethacin, or 100 μM sodium meclofenamate) markedly enhanced superoxide production by human neutrophils stimulated with post-receptor stimuli, fluoride and γ-hexachlorocyclohexane. On the other hand, the response to the C3b/Fc receptor stimulus, opsonized zymosan, was marginally decreased whilst that to the Fc receptor stimulus, aggregated IgG, was virtually unaffected. Since the inhibitors used are deemed to inhibit the main routes of arachidonate production, these results call into question the role of arachidonate in the transduction of O− 2 generation by post-receptor stimuli, but support a role for arachidonate in receptor-mediated transduction.Keywords
