Expression of p40phox in COSphoxFcγR cells and FcγR-elicited NADPH oxidase activity. Data shown is representative of at least three independent experiments. (A) Immunoblots of human neutrophil and COS7 cell lysates (10 μg protein per lane) probed with antibodies for p40phox, p47phox, and p67phox. COSphoxFcγR cells were transfected with either a stable p40phox transgene or with varying amounts of p40pRK5 for transient expression as indicated. (B) IgG-RBC–elicited NADPH oxidase activity in COSphoxFcγR cells expressing p40phox. Multiple formazan-stained phagosomes (arrows) in COSphoxFcγR transfected with 0.05 μg p40pRK5 (representative photomicrograph; bar, 30 μm). Similar numbers of formazan-stained phagosomes were present in COSphoxFcγR cells transfected with larger amounts of plasmid or expressing p40phox from a stable transgene. (C) Flow cytometry analysis of COSFcγR cell lines incubated with Fc OxyBURST Green–opsonized zymosan for 30 min. Fluorescence intensity is shown on the x axis.
