The authors have examined the role of the src-family of protein
tyrosine kinases in leukotriene B4
(LTB4)-induced activation of guinea-pig eosinophils.
Western blot analysis identified the src-like protein tyrosine kinases
p53lyn, p56lyn, p56/59hck,
p55fgr, and p56lck whereas p60src,
p62yes, p55blk, and p59fyn were not
detected. LTB4 promoted a rapid increase in
p53/56lyn activity in eosinophils, which peaked at 5 seconds and remained elevated at 60 seconds; hck, fgr, and lck were not
activated. A role for p53/56lyn in eosinophil activation
was investigated with the use of the src-selective inhibitor
PP1 (1 µmol/L to 10 µmol/L), which attenuated LTB4-stimulated
p53/56lyn activity and the phosphorylation of extracellular
signal-regulated kinase-2 in intact cells. At comparable
concentrations, PP1 was also shown to attenuate
LTB4-induced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate
(reduced form) (NADPH) oxidase activation, chemotaxis, and
Ca++-dependent [3H]arachidonic acid (AA)
release. Moreover, an inhibitor of mitogen-activated protein kinase
kinase-1, PD 098059, significantly inhibited LTB4-induced chemotaxis but had no effect on oxidant production or
[3H]AA release. Collectively, these results implicate lyn
kinase in LTB4-induced eosinophil activation through the
recruitment of divergent cell-signaling pathways.
