| Abstract | Formylated peptides specifically activate many of the neutrophil functions; their action is mediated via formyl peptide receptors (FPRs). FPRs belong to the family of receptors having seven transmembrane-spanning domains and coupled with G-proteins (GPCR). About a dozen of highly homologous genes of FPRs were found to be localized in mouse chromosome 17. By binding with labeled N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe (fMLF), FPRs are classified as receptors with high (FPR1) and low (FPR2 and FPR3/FPRL1) affinity to formyl peptide. Binding of formyl peptide with FPRs triggers the complex signaling events, the most studied are: activation of phospholipase C (PLC) with subsequent calcium signaling; launching of mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPKs) cascade pathway, and activation of phosphoinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) cascades. As we have shown previously, the priming of the respiratory burst of mice neutrophils occurs under the cell activation by fMLF in high doses only, i.e., it is necessary to activate low affinity FPRs. Besides, the usage of the specific MEK and p38MAPK inhibitors induced significant suppression of the response to 1 μM fMLM, while the response to 50 μM fMLF increased in the presence of the inhibitors. We suggest that there is a signal divergence upon activation of high and low affinity fMLF receptors, and small G protein dependent signaling pathways could be alternative to activate NADPH oxidase. Here we demonstrate that Ras-proteins participate in the respiratory burst activation, especially in activation via the high affinity fMLF receptors. Activation of the Rho- and Rac-proteins induced the down-regulation of the respiratory burst under the stimulation of high affinity FPRs. The inhibition of the Rho-proteins almost completely suppressed the respiratory burst activated via the high and low affinity receptors, probably due to inability to assemble of the cytoskeleton proteins and NADPH oxidase components. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
