Regulation of oscillations in filamentous actin content in polymorphonuclear leukocytes stimulated with leukotriene B(4) and platelet-activating factor.

Abstract:

:Stimulation of neutrophils with LTB(4) or PAF results in the production of a rapidly oscillating actin polymerization/depolymerization response. Treatment of neutrophils with inhibitors of PKC prior to stimulation with ligand resulted in a masking of the F-actin oscillations. Because myosin has been shown to be a substrate for neutrophil PKC, this protein was investigated as a potential downstream mediator of F-actin oscillations. Stimulation of neutrophils with LTB(4) resulted in myosin light chain being serine phosphorylated in a PKC-dependent manner. This phosphorylation was shown to occur in a manner that is kinetically distinct from the myosin phosphorylation induced by FMLP, a potent activator of actin polymerization that alone does not induce F-actin oscillations. Additionally, disruption of intracellular actin-myosin interactions resulted in inhibition of LTB(4)- as well as PAF-induced F-actin oscillations. These data suggest that PKC and downstream phosphorylation of myosin as well as actin-myosin interaction may play roles in mediating the production of neutrophil F-actin oscillations.
