[Mechanisms of the mediated neutrophil reactivity to Escherichia coli peptidoglycan].
The opsonic properties of normal serum with respect to E. coli peptidoglycan was studied under the actual conditions of the oxygen-dependent metabolism of neutrophils. In the course of the differentiated study of the influence of antibodies, the classical and the alternative cascades of complement the serum was heated, treated with ethylenediaminetetraacetate and ethylene glycol tetraacetate, exhausted in the cold. In serial experiments the opsonic activity of purified fibronectin was studied. The indirect reactions were shown to be the leading mechanisms of the neutrophil-stimulated activity of E. coli peptidoglycan. IgG was found to be in the center of the opsonic cooperation and thus to determine the quantitative manifestation of the total phenomenon. Complement proved to be of lesser importance; depending on the conditions of the experiment, the activation of complement occurred by the alternative way (after the removal of antibodies) or the classical way (whole serum). The actual contribution of IgG-independent and complement-independent opsonins was insignificant. Fibronectin in physiological concentrations showed no opsonic activity.
