title: Prostaglandins E1 and E2 enhance the stimulation of superoxide release by 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol from human neutrophils.
abstract: Superoxide release from human neutrophils was stimulated either by receptor activation (using fMet-Leu-Phe) or by activating, independently, each of the two pathways considered to be involved in signal transduction--calcium mobilization (using the ionophore, A23187) and protein kinase C activation (using phorbol myristate acetate or 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol). Prostaglandin E1 (3 X 10(-5) M) decreased fMet-Leu-Phe-stimulated superoxide release, had no effect on superoxide release stimulated by A23187, or by phorbol myristate acetate, and markedly enhanced the superoxide release stimulated by 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol. Similar enhancement was obtained with prostaglandin E2.
