PHAGOCYTES

Novel pathways of F-actin polymerization in the human neutrophil

David Chodniewicz, and Doncho V. Zhelev

From the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science, Duke University, Durham, NC.

Recently we demonstrated the existence of a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)–independent F-actin polymerization during neutrophil pseudopod extension. Here we examine the use of the PI3K-dependent and PI3K-independent pathways of activation by the N-formyl peptide receptor and the chemokine receptors, and the priming of the 2 pathways by granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and insulin. The inhibition of PI3K activity with wortmannin showed that rate of pseudopod extension stimulated with N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe (fMLP was mostly dependent on PI3K, while the rate of interleukin-8 (IL-8)–stimulated pseudopod extension was less dependent on PI3K. The incubation of cells with either GM-CSF or insulin increased the rate of pseudopod extension by 50% when the cells were stimulated with IL-8 but not with fMLP. The stimulation with IL-8 phosphorylated the PI3K regulatory subunit. This phosphorylation was enhanced by GM-CSF, which increased PI3K activity and total phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) production. The effect of GM-CSF was blocked with wortmannin. In contrast, insulin did not increase p85 phosphorylation and did not enhance PI3K activity or PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 production. The effect of insulin was insensitive to wortmannin; however, it was blocked by an Src homology 2 (SH2)–binding peptide. These data indicate that priming of IL-8 activation with GM-CSF was mediated via the PI3Ks of class IA, while priming with insulin used a PI3K-independent pathway.
