Improvement of an impaired chemiluminescence response to formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine in neutrophils from patients with non insulin dependent diabetes mellitus by recombinant human granulocyte-colony stimulating factor.
To explore the possibility that b type recombinant human granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (rhG-CSF) is a useful drug to prevent the morbidity and mortality caused by infections in diabetic patients, we have studied effects of rhG-CSF on chemiluminescence amplified by a luciferin analog (CLA-DCL) and luminol (L-DCL) in response to formyl-Methionyl-Leucyl-Phenylalanine (fMLP) in neutrophils from patients with non insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) (diabetic neutrophils) and healthy subjects (control neutrophils). Both CLA-DCL and L-DCL in diabetic neutrophils were significantly reduced, and L-DCL was more sensitive to this suppression than CLA-DCL. RhG-CSF did not change the basal chemiluminescence in control and diabetic neutrophils, but it primed CLA-DCL and L-DCL. Although, in diabetic neutrophils, the priming effect of rhG-GSF on both CLA-DCL and L-DCL was less compared to that in control neutrophils, L-DCL was more sensitive to this priming effect than CLA-DCL. Because bacterial infection is still an important cause of the morbidity and mortality in diabetic patients, these data suggest that rhG-CSF is a useful drug to prevent the aggravation of bacterial infection in patients with NIDDM.
