Stimulation of Human Neutrophils by Chemotactic Factors Is Associated with the Activation of Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase γ
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The activation of human polymorphonuclear neutrophil leukocytes (neutrophils) is associated with an increased synthesis of the highly phosphorylated phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)). The aims of the present investigation were to determine whether the newly described, G protein-dependent phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), p110gamma, was involved in the responses to chemotactic factors interacting with G protein-coupled receptors. The presence of p110gamma in neutrophils was first established both at the protein and the mRNA level. Stimulation of the cells with fMet-Leu-Phe or interleukin-8 increased the PI3K activity in p110gamma, but not p85, immunoprecipitates. The time course of this effect (threshold within less than 5 s, maximal activation at 10-15 s) was consistent with that of the generation of PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3). Wortmannin, a PI3K inhibitor, abrogated the effects of fMet-Leu-Phe, which were also significantly inhibited by pertussis toxin. Finally, fMet-Leu-Phe also induced a significant translocation of p110gamma to a particulate fraction derived from these cells. These data indicate that p110gamma represent the major PI3K activated by fMet-Leu-Phe and interleukin-8 at very early time points following the stimulation of human neutrophils.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
