Abstract

Neutrophil extracellular traps (NET) formation eliminates/prevents the spread of infectious agents. Platelet activating factor (PAF) is involved in infectious diseases of cattle because it recruits and activates neutrophils. However, its ability to induce NET formation and the role of metabolism in this process is not known. We investigated if inhibition of glycolysis, mitochondrial-derived adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthesis and purinergic signaling though P2X1 purinoceptors interfered with NET formation induced by PAF. We inhibited bovine neutrophils with 2-deoxy-D-glucose, rotenone, carbonyl cyanide 3-8 chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) and NF449 to evaluate PAF-mediated NET extrusion. PAF induced mitochondrial hyperpolarization and triggered extracellular ATP release via pannexin-1. Inhibition of mitochondrial metabolism prevented extracellular ATP release. Inhibition of glycolysis, complex-I activity and oxidative phosphorylation prevented NET formation induced by PAF. Inhibition of P2X1 purinergic receptors inhibited mitochondrial hyperpolarization and NET formation. We concluded that PAF-induced NET release is dependent upon glycolysis, mitochondrial ATP synthesis and purinergic signaling.
