Abstract

Dual radiolabel incorporation of [3H]arachidonic acid and [14C]palmitate or [14C]stearate by human neutrophils was employed to study both the release and metabolism of arachidonic acid. Results indicate the involvement of a phospholipase A2 mechanism causing [3H]arachidonate release from membrane phospholipid. Phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylcholine were the sources of [3H]arachidonate; about twice as much radiolabeled phosphatidylinositol was degraded as phosphatidylcholine. Challenge of neutrophils with opsonized zymosan and calcium ionophores caused the release of [3H]arachidonate; however, ionophores but not opsonized zymosan led to the production of [3H]hydroxyicosatetraenoic acid and [3H]dihydroxyicosatetraenoic acid. These products were preferentially released by neutrophils into the extracellular milieu in contrast with free [3H]arachidonate which remained cell associated. One-third of the [3H]hydroxyicosatetraenoic acid but not [3H]dihydroxyicosatetraenoic acid was reincorporated into cellular lipid, primarily phospholipid. No significant production of [3H]prostaglandin or [3H]thromboxane was detected. In contrast to zymosan and ionophore, phorbol myristate acetate, another potent stimulant of neutrophil oxidative metabolism and degranulation, did not release [3H]arachidonate.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
