The concentration of cytosolic ionized Ca [Ca2+]i, was measured in intact [human] neutrophils by use of a fluorescent indicator trapped in the cytoplasm. A given rise of [Ca2+]i elicited by the chemotactic peptide formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP) was associated with a much greater degree of superoxide generation and myeloperoxidase secretion than was the same or larger [Ca2+]i produced by a specific Ca ionophore, ionomycin, which bypasses cell surface receptors. FMLP appears to generate some important excitatory signal in addition to a rise in [Ca2+]i, and exocytosis and superoxide generation in neutrophils may not be simply dependent on [Ca2+]i as is widely supposed.
