BACKGROUND: Alterations in macrophage (M phi) function are responsible, in part, for adult respiratory distress syndrome and multiple organ failure developing in patients with sepsis. Elucidation and control of these M phi mechanisms during sepsis are crucial to our understanding of this disease and, ultimately, to improving survival of these patients.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the involvement of calcium flux in endotoxin-induced alveolar M phi production of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and procoagulant (PC) activity.
DESIGN: Rabbit alveolar M phi obtained by bronchoalveolar lavage were exposed to endotoxin in the form of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) extracted from Escherichia coli 0111:B4 in the presence of different specific calcium agonists and antagonists. The TNF expression was measured in the supernatant by L929 bioassays. The PC activity was determined in cell lysates by a one-step coagulation assay.
RESULTS: Macrophages activated by LPS produce enormous levels of TNF and PC. Either W7 (20 mumol/L), a calmodulin antagonist, or TMB-8 (50 mumol/L), which prevents calcium release from the endoplasmic reticulum, inhibited production of both TNF and PC activity. Verapamil (50 mumol/L) alone or combined with TMB-8 significantly inhibited both TNF and PC production by LPS-stimulated M phi. Elevating intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i), using the calcium ionophore, A23187, or thapsigargin alone, did not induce M phi production of TNF but significantly augmented LPS-stimulated TNF production.
CONCLUSION: Our results indicate that increased intracellular calcium causing signal transduction activation through the calmodulin pathway is a necessary, but insufficient, component of the LPS signaling in M phi.
