PG - 166-74 AB - The inhibition of formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP)-induced respiratory burst by 2',5'-dihydroxy-2-furfurylchalcone (DHFC) was investigated in rat neutrophils, and the underlying mechanism of this inhibition was assessed. DHFC concentration-dependently inhibited superoxide anion (O(2)) generation (IC(50) 4.2+/-1.2 microM), reaching a plateau within 5-10 min preincubation time, and inhibited oxygen consumption (IC(50) 6.9+/-1.9 microM) in rat neutrophils. In cell-free systems, DHFC failed to scavenge the generated during dihydroxyfumaric acid auto-oxidation. DHFC was less effective in the inhibition of both phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate-activated neutrophil particulate NADPH oxidase activity and arachidonic acid-induced NADPH oxidase activation. In rat neutrophils, DHFC did not exert a cAMP-elevating effect, nor did it affect fMLP-induced [Ca(2+)](i) change to a considerable extent. DHFC slightly reduced fMLP-induced phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3 K) activation but showed moderate inhibition of Akt phosphorylation. fMLP-induced cellular phospholipase D (PLD) activation was markedly inhibited by DHFC (IC(50) 8.9+/-2.0 microM). In addition, DHFC effectively attenuated the membrane association of protein kinase C (PKC)-alpha, ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) and Rho A in fMLP-stimulated cells. However, DHFC had no effect on the membrane association of ARF and Rho A caused by guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTPgammaS) in cell lysate. fMLP-stimulated protein tyrosine phosphorylation was weakly attenuated by DHFC. DHFC was more efficient in the inhibition of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) phosphorylation than p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) phosphorylation. Collectively, these results indicate that the suppression of fMLP-induced respiratory burst by DHFC in rat neutrophils is probably mainly attributable to the inhibition of PLD activation, via the blockade of PKC-alpha, ARF and Rho A membrane association.
