Abstract
Neutrophils stimulated with the chemoatttractant FMLP are known to exhibit a rapid and transient activation of two p21-activated protein kinases (Paks) with molecular masses of approximately 63 and 69 kDa, Paks can be detected by their ability to undergo renaturation and catalyze the phosphorylation of a peptide substrate that corresponds to aminoacid residues 297 to 331 of the 47-kDa subunit of the nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate-oxidase complex (p47-phox) fixed within agel. In this study, we demonstrate that N-acetylsphingosine (C-2-ceramide) and a variety of sphingoid bases (e.g., D-erythrosphingosine) block activation of the 63- and 69-kDa Paks in neutrophils. The concentrations of these lipids that were effective in blocking Pak activation were similar to those that inhibit a variety of neutrophil responses. Activation of the 63- and 69-kDa Paks was also markedly reduced in neutrophils treated with sphingomyelinase before stimulation. Moreover, we report that addition of C-2-ceramide or D-erythrosphingosine to neutrophils after stimulation with FMLP markedly enhances the rate of Pak inactivation. These effects were not mimicked by arachidonate, which is a potent disorganizing agent of neutrophil membranes, These data support and extend the proposal that sphingoid bases may establish a set point int neutrophils for positive stimuli.
