Fluoride-mediated activation of the respiratory burst in human neutrophils. A reversible process.
Fluoride ion (F-) is an effective activator of the respiratory burst in neutrophils, as indicated by its ability to induce O2- production by these cells. Other halide ions did not activate the burst, Cl-, in particular appeared to antagonize the effect of F- on O2- production. F- stimulated O2- production showed a requirement for Ca++, but was independent of other exogenous cations. Neither pha...
متن کاملKinetics of activation of the respiratory burst oxidase in a fully soluble system from human neutrophils.
In a fully soluble system from resting human neutrophils, activation of the respiratory burst oxidase under defined conditions was found to follow first-order kinetics. The manner in which this first-order activation process varied with the concentrations of the individual components in the activating system suggested the following. 1) The respiratory burst oxidase occurs in two forms that can ...
متن کاملEvidence for activation of a respiratory burst in the interaction of human neutrophils with Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
We examined the capacity of human neutrophils to develop a respiratory burst, as monitored by superoxide release, in response to interaction with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Serum-opsonized, heat-killed mycobacteria induced significant release of superoxide from neutrophils after 30 min of exposure, with a maximum release of 34 +/- 1.7 nmol/30 min per 5 X 10(6) neutrophils occurring with a myco...
متن کاملThe effect of exercise with low and high intensity on respiratory burst activities and neutrophils counts
Introduction: Although exercise his effects on human immune system, but its causes is not significantly cleared yet. This study is aimed to investigate the effect of exercise with moderate and high intensity, on changes of respiratory burst activities and neutrophil counts in college judoists. Methods: 10 male college judoists participated in this quazi-experimental study. Subjects run o...
متن کاملRole of myeloperoxidase in the respiratory burst of human neutrophils.
Myeloperoxidase (MPO), a heme enzyme present in the primary granules of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs), has been demonstrated to participate in the oxygen-dependent microbicidal activity of these cells. Evidence for the importance of MPO in this role comes in part from studies of normal PMNs treated with the heme enzyme inhibitor, sodium azide. MPO has also been suggested to regulate the r...
