Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and phorbol 12, 13-dibutyrate induced spreading of mouse macrophages with 50% effective concentrations of 3 nM and 35 nM, respectively. Macrophages treated with 100 or 1000 nM phorbol 12, 13- dibutyrate showed a time related decrease in spreading after washout. Spreading induced by 1, 10, or 100 nM phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate was irreversible; however, washed phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate-treated cells respread after a second exposure to this compound. Washout of 3[H]phorbol diesters corroborated these observations in that 5% of 3H-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and only 0.1% 3[H]phorbol, 12,13-dibutyrate remained associated with washed cells. Since phorbol 12-myristate 13 acetate is much more lipophilic than phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate, the reversibility of phorbol diester-induced macrophage spreading may depend upon the lipophilicity of the derivative utilized.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008264 Macrophages The relatively long-lived phagocytic cell of mammalian tissues that are derived from blood MONOCYTES. Main types are PERITONEAL MACROPHAGES; ALVEOLAR MACROPHAGES; HISTIOCYTES; KUPFFER CELLS of the liver; and OSTEOCLASTS. They may further differentiate within chronic inflammatory lesions to EPITHELIOID CELLS or may fuse to form FOREIGN BODY GIANT CELLS or LANGHANS GIANT CELLS.

D005260 Female Females
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D015240 Phorbol 12,13-Dibutyrate A phorbol ester found in CROTON OIL which, in addition to being a potent skin tumor promoter, is also an effective activator of calcium-activated, phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C). Due to its activation of this enzyme, phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate profoundly affects many different biological systems. Phorbol-12,13-Dibutyrate,12,13-Dibutyrate, Phorbol,Phorbol 12,13 Dibutyrate
