The CC chemokine RANTES is synthesized, stored, and upregulated in
response to interferon- (IFN- ) in human peripheral blood eosinophils. In this report, we propose that RANTES is rapidly mobilized from eosinophil crystalloid granules during agonist-induced degranulation. We stimulated purified eosinophils (>99%) from atopic
asthmatics with 500 U/mL IFN- to analyze the kinetics of
mobilization and release of RANTES (0 to 240 minutes). We used subcellular fractionation, immunogold analysis, two-color confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay
(ELISA) to trace the movement of eosinophil-derived RANTES from
intracellular stores to release. RANTES was rapidly mobilized (10 minutes) and released after 120 minutes of stimulation (80 ± 15 pg/mL
per 2 × 106 cells). RANTES appeared to be stored in at
least two intracellular compartments: the matrix of crystalloid
granules, detected by major basic protein and eosinophil peroxidase
activities, and a specialized small secretory vesicle present in light
membrane fractions. The extragranular RANTES was mobilized more rapidly than that of crystalloid granules during IFN- stimulation. This effect was not observed in eosinophils treated with IFN- ,
interleukin-3 (IL-3), IL-5, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating
factor (GM-CSF), or genistein followed by IFN- . Our findings suggest that RANTES may be mobilized and released by piecemeal degranulation upon stimulation, involving transport through a putative pool of small
secretory vesicles.
