摘要

In this manuscript, involvement of PLD in fMLP-induced superoxide generation and degranulation were re-investigated using PLD(-/-) neutrophils, and the molecular mechanisms of these neutrophil functions were examined. Neither PLD1 nor PLD2 is involved in these fMLP-induced neutrophil functions. The results obtained in this study provide evidence that cPKC plays an important role in fMLP-induced superoxide generation. On the other hand, Ca(2+)-dependent signaling pathway and cPKC seem to be involved in degranulation.Copyright © 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
