Previously published work has indicated that polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) may enhance neutrophil-mediated damage to host tissues. We have found that endothelial detachment was significantly increased by neutrophils pretreated with docosahexaenoic (22:6, n-3) and arachidonic (20:4, n-6) acids at 10-40

Carboxypeptidase R (EC 3.4.17.20; CPR) is an unstable basic carboxypeptidase found in fresh serum in addition to carboxypeptidase N (CPN) which is a stable enzyme. CPR in fresh serum is generated from its zymogen (proCPR) during coagulation by trypsin-like enzymes

The mechanism of inactivation of human leukocyte elastase (HLE) by the chloromethyl ketone MeOSuc-Ala-Ala-Pro-Val-CH2Cl was investigated. The dependence of the first-order rate constant for inactivation on concentration of chloromethyl ketone is hyperbolic and suggests formation of a reversible "Michaelis complex"

The neutrophil has been implicated as an important mediator of vascular injury, especially after endotoxemia. This study examines neutrophil-mediated injury to human microvascular endothelial cells in vitro. We found that neutrophils stimulated by formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP), the complement fragment C5a, or

As an approach to facilitating the understanding of proteinases associated with monocytes we have studied U-937 monocytelike cells. Elastase activity was identified in U-937 cell extracts and compared to monocyte elastase activity, neutrophil elastase, and the elastase activity from a
