We report here that human plasma alpha-1-antitrypsin (alpha-1-AT) inhibited human neutrophil O2.- release elicited by a variety of stimulants. In comparison, the inhibitory capacities of two serine protease inhibitors, L-1-tosylamide 2-phenylethyl chloromethyl ketone (TPCK) and soybean trypsin inhibitor (SBTI), and the human recombinant alpha-1-AT mutant, alpha-1-AT-Arg358 were in the order: alpha-1-AT almost-equal-to TPCK much greater than alpha-1-AT-Arg358 > SBTI when cells were stimulated with concanavalin A plus cytochalasin E. These data suggest that, in human inflammatory fluids containing relatively high concentrations of alpha-1-AT (such as rheumatoid arthritis synovial fluid), (i) alpha-1-AT may down-regulate the inflammatory process by inhibiting the neutrophil respiratory burst and (ii) serpin oxidation by neutrophil-released reactive oxygen species is unlikely to occur.
