Platelet factor 4 (PF-4), like IL-8, is a member of the chemokine superfamily of proinflammatory cytokines. However, although the capacity of IL-8 to stimulate functions in neutrophils is well established, reports on PF-4 are still contradictory. In the present study, we have prepared highly purified PF-4 and examined its ability to induce chemotaxis, degranulation, adhesion to gelatin and plasma proteins, and changes in intracellular calcium levels. Even over a broad range of concentrations, PF-4 alone was unable to induce functional changes in PMN. However, neutrophils pre- or co-incubated with physiologically relevant concentrations of TNF-alpha responded to PF-4 by the selective mobilization of the secondary granule marker lactoferrin but not of the primary granule marker elastase. Contrary to IL-8, PMN did not require pretreatment with cytochalasin B for PF-4- induced exocytosis of lactoferrin. The synergistic effect of PF-4 with TNF-alpha was not a priming phenomenon because the cooperative response remained unchanged even when TNF-alpha was added 5 min after the chemokine. In contrast, TNF-alpha-treated PMN did not respond to PF-4 by chemotaxis or by an increase of intracellular calcium levels, and no competition of PF-4 for IL-8 receptors was observed. Our results suggest a mechanism as well as a biologic role of PF-4 in the regulation of neutrophil function, which is different from that of IL-8 and other alpha-chemokines.
