Effect of PP1 on LTB4-induced [3H]AA release and superoxide generation.
Cells were preincubated for 5 minutes at 37°C in the presence (○) or absence (•) of 1 mmol/L Ca++/1 mmol/L Mg2+ and the indicated concentrations of PP1. Data represent the mean ± SEM of 3 to 4 independent experiments. (A) Following stimulation with LTB4 (100 nmol/L), the release of [3H]AA at 60 seconds was determined. (B) Following stimulation with LTB4(100 nmol/L), the maximal rate of superoxide generation measured as relative light units (RLU) was determined. An asterisk indicates significant inhibition of LTB4-induced response by the indicated concentration of inhibitor compared with controls. P < .05.
