The purpose of this investigation was to pharmacologically probe the signaling pathways thought to be involved in protein kinase C (PKC)- stimulated superoxide anion (O2-) generation in all-trans retinoic acid- treated human promyelocytic HL-60 cell line (HL-60), targeting PKC, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), MAPK kinase (MEK), protein serine-threonine phosphatase(s) (PSP), protein tyrosine kinase(s) (PTK) and phosphatase(s) (PTP), secretory phospholipase A2, cyclooxygenase (CO) and 5-lipoxygenase with selected inhibitors. The following agents inhibited phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate-stimulated O2- generation significantly in the all-trans retinoic acid-treated HL-60 cells (expressed as percentage of control, P < .05): 1) PKC inhibitors: staurosporine (100 nM, 3 +/- 1%); Ro 31-8220 (1 microM, 3 +/- 2%); sphingosine (100 microM, 15 +/- 7%); 2) PSP 1 and 2a inhibitors, okadaic acid (10 microM, 35 +/- 1%); calyculin A (10 microM, 73 +/- 1%); 3) MAPK inhibitor: SB-203580 (100 microM, 62 +/- 1%); 4) PTP inhibitors: phenylarsine oxide (1 microM, 12 +/- 9%); diamide (1 mM, 21 +/- 11%); and 5) secretory phospholipase A2 inhibitors: manoalide (1 microM, 24 +/- 10%); scalaradial (1 microM, 11 +/- 4%). Exogenously added arachidonic acid-stimulated O2- generation in a time- and dose- dependent manner. The following inhibitors enhanced or did not significantly affect phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate-stimulated O2- generation (expressed as percentage of control): 1) PTK inhibitors: genistein (100 microM, 69 +/- 12%); CGP 53716 (100 microM, 67 +/- 10%); herbimycin A (10 microM, 67.4 +/- 1%); 2) PSP 2b inhibitors: cyclosporin A (30 microM, 71 +/- 5%); FK506 (30 microM, 88 +/- 7%); 3) CO inhibitor: indomethacin (100 microM, 111 +/- 12%); 4) 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor: WY 50,295 (100 microM, 140 +/- 23%); 5) MEK inhibitor: PD98059 (100 microM, 94 +/- 6.7%); and 6) the PTP inhibitor: orthovanadate (100 microM, 131 +/- 25%). Our pharmacological study suggests that, in neutrophil-like HL-60 cells, the signaling pathways leading to PMA-stimulated O2- generation appear to involve PKC, MAPK, phospholipase A2, arachidonic acid, PSP 1 and 2a and PTP. Furthermore, PTK, MEK, CO, 5-lipoxygenase and PSP 2b do not appear to participate in the modulation of PKC-stimulated O2- generation.
