Fig. 3. C2-ceramide inhibitition of PLD activity in PMNs stimulated for superoxide production and degranulation. / PMNs were labeled with 1-O-[3H]-octadecyl-sn-glycero-3 phosphocholine. PMNs were treated with lipids as in Figure 1, then incubated with 1% ethanol for 5 minutes at 37°C. Cells were then stimulated at 37°C with G-CSF (50 ng/mL, 10 minutes) (panel A) or cytochalasin B (5 μg/mL, 3 minutes) (panel B) followed by FMLP (1 μM, 5 minutes). Cell pellets were extracted with chloroform and methanol. Lipid products were separated by means of TLC, and [3H]-labeled PEt was removed and counted in a scintillation counter. Data represent the mean ± SEM of 4 experiments. *Significantly different from control;P < .05.
