ABSTRACT
AIM:
The present study was undertaken to explore the effects of ?-MSH on partial biological activities of LPS.METHODS:
Colorimetric method was used for the measurement of hydrogen peroxide(H_2O_2) production in mouse peritoneal macrophages, the apoptosis of polymorphonuclear leukocytes(PMNs) and the binding of LPS to monocytes were studied with flow cytometry.RESULTS:
It was found that LPS strongly stimulated macrophages to release H_2O_2. When macrophages were cultured with ?-MSH in the presence of LPS, the H_2O_2 release was markedly suppressed (P0.05). In the presence of LPS, however, ?-MSH significantly promoted the apoptosis of PMNs (P
