Nitric oxide production by human peripheral blood polymorphonuclear leucocytes.
1. We describe a rapid and reliable technique for the assessment of basal nitric oxide release in clinical situations, using peripheral blood polymorphonuclear leucocytes isolated by a single-step density gradient procedure. The assay is based on the quantitative conversion of oxyhaemoglobin to methaemoglobin by nitric oxide. We have further examined the ability of these cells to respond to var...
متن کاملScanning electron microscopy of rheumatoid arthritis peripheral blood polymorphonuclear leucocytes.
Peripheral blood polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMNs) were isolated from six normal individuals and from 27 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) by the Ficoll-Hypaque rapid single step centrifugation technique, fixed in suspension, and examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). In addition, four of the preparations from normal individuals and eight from patients with RA were examined by ...
متن کاملNADPH-dependent reduction of 2,6-dichlorophenol-indophenol by the phagocytic vesicles of pig polymorphonuclear leucocytes.
NADPH-dependent 2,6-dichlorophenol-indophenol (DCIP) reductase activity in the homogenate of phagocytosing pig polymorphonuclear leucocytes was twice that of the resting cells and the activity in the phagocytic vesicles corresponded to the activity increment due to phagocytosis. The apparent Km value of the reductase activity in the vesicles for NADPH was 30 microM, which is similar to that of ...
متن کاملOxidative metabolism in cord-blood polymorphonuclear leucocytes.
Polymorphonuclear leucocytes were isolated from cord-blood samples collected from healthy, term infants. Oxidative metabolism was assessed in these cells by hexose monophosphate shunt activity and chemiluminescence. Basal levels of oxidative metabolism were spontaneously increased in resting (nonphagocytic) cord-blood cells as compared to adult controls. As a response to phagocytosis, cord-bloo...
