Effect of EGTA and Three Different PKC Inhibitors on Adhesive and Migratory Ability of Aspirin (ASA)-Treated T Cells

Adherent T Cells (%) Migrated T Cells (%)
Basal (medium)  28.9 ± 5  7.0 ± 2  
ASA (300 μg/mL)  17.3 ± 33-150 3.3 ± 13-150 
ASA + EGTA (1 mmol/L)  26.9 ± 43-151 6.8 ± 33-151 
ASA + staurosporin (1 μmol/L) 20.0 ± 43-152 4.9 ± 23-152 
ASA + calphostin C (1 μmol/L) 17.1 ± 33-150 4.8 ± 23-152 
ASA + H-7 (100 μmol/L)  16.1 ± 33-150 2.9 ± 13-150 
Adherent T Cells (%) Migrated T Cells (%)
Basal (medium)  28.9 ± 5  7.0 ± 2  
ASA (300 μg/mL)  17.3 ± 33-150 3.3 ± 13-150 
ASA + EGTA (1 mmol/L)  26.9 ± 43-151 6.8 ± 33-151 
ASA + staurosporin (1 μmol/L) 20.0 ± 43-152 4.9 ± 23-152 
ASA + calphostin C (1 μmol/L) 17.1 ± 33-150 4.8 ± 23-152 
ASA + H-7 (100 μmol/L)  16.1 ± 33-150 2.9 ± 13-150 

Data are expressed as the mean ± SEM of six separate experiments. T cells were incubated with PKC inhibitors or EGTA for 30 minutes at 37°C, washed, and then tested in the adhesion system. Preincubation of T cells with staurosporin, calphostin C, or EGTA alone did not affect adhesion and migration of T cells, whereas H-7 slightly, but significantly, reduced T-cell adhesion (22.8 ± 4%;P < .05 v basal). Numbers significantly different from the basal values are in bold.

F3-150

P < .01.

F3-151

P < .01 versus ASA alone.

F3-152

P < .05.
