14-Deoxyandrographolide (14-DAP) is a labdane diterpene isolated from Andrographis paniculata with previously reported calcium channel blocking activity. Its potential platelet activating factor (PAF) antagonistic activity in bovine neutrophils was assessed. 14-DAP, in concentrations between 10-100 mu M, reduced the extracellular acidification rate and the intracellular alkalinizarion in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, 14-DAP reduced PAF-induced calcium flux in the presence of extracellular calcium, and tyrosine phosphorylation of a 44 kDa protein corresponding to the MAPK(ERK1). However, 14-DAP reduced the H-3-PAF binding with a K-i of 7.8 x 10(-9) M, and a Hill slope of 0.63, suggesting that there is more than one binding site for 14-DAP. We concluded that 14-DAP is an effective antagonist of PAF-mediated processes in bovine neutrophils, probably by virtue of its calcium channel blocking property.
