A23 187 stimulates the metabolism of endogenous as well as exogenous arachidonic acid (AA) and eicosapentaenolc acid (EPA) to their corresponding leukotrienes in human neutrophils. In contrast, conflicting results have been obtained concerning the effect of FMLP on the metabolism of these fatty acid

The arachidonic acid metabolites produced by human peripheral blood monocytes were studied to determine which metabolites could have a role in thrombogenesis. Monocytes were found to be free of platelets by scanning electron microscopy and by measurement of 12-HETE. Human peripheral blood monocytes
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a potent activator of human monocytes, induced F-actin polymerization in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. To test whether cytoskeletal events participate in the control of the LPS-induced ROI and TNF-alpha production, three natural occurring actin-modulating subs
The effects of insulin and glucose on parameters of metabolism were investigated in myoblast-like (MBL) cells, a human myoblast-like cell line derived from a Wilms'tumor. Insulin responses were studied after 4 h r pre-incubation in serum free media, with or without 5 m M glucose. Insulin was added d
