Effects of PI3 kinase inhibitor on macrophage phagocytosis and NADPH oxidase activity elicited by IgG-opsonized latex beads. Murine PEMs were incubated with varying concentrations of wortmannin or LY294002 for 30 min at 37°C or with DMSO vehicle (control) before adding IgG-opsonized latex beads (3.3 μm). Data is the mean ± SD (n ≥ 3 experiments). (A) The percentage of macrophages with internalized beads (black bars) and the phagocytic index (white bars; data normalized as the percentage of the phagocytic index for vehicle-treated control macrophages, which was ∼400–600) are shown. (B) NADPH oxidase activity during phagocytosis of IgG beads, as measured by lucigenin-dependent chemiluminescence integrated over 60 min. Data is the mean ± SD (n ≥ 3 experiments). The background signal from gp91phox-null PEM samples run in parallel was 90.0 ± 27.8 and has been subtracted from the wild-type PEM signal.
