Abstract:
Objective:To study the role of protein kinase C-δin the Dectin-1-Src-Syk-mediated killing of Candida albicans by macrophages and investigate the molecular mechanism of antifungal innate immunity .Methods:Cell surface receptors were accessed by Flow Cytometry.Mouse bone marrow derived macrophages were pre-incubated with different protein kinase inhibitors and then stimulated with C.albicans.The phosphorylation of related proteins was determined by Western blot.The ROS production,phagocytosis and killing of C.albicans by macrophages were measured.Results:Either Src or Syk inhibitor reduced C.albicans induced PKC-δphos-phorylation.PKC-δinhibitor Rottlerin reduced p40phox phosphorylation,ROS production and killing of C.albicans but had no effect on the phagocytosis of C.albicans by macrophages.Conclusion:PKC-δinhibitor Rottlerin reduced the killing of Candida albicans by mac-rophages through the inhibition of NADPH complex activation and ROS production ,suggesting that PKC-δplays an important role in an-tifungal innate immunity.
