The 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 کاملDo Sex Differences in Respiratory Burst Enzyme Activities Exist in Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 Infection?
Studies have shown that human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) disproportionally affects more females than males. Affected individuals are susceptible to infections due to depressed immunity, qualitative defects in phagocytic function and altered phagocytosis as well as lowered oxidative burst capacity. This study seeks to determine whether sex differences exist in serum activities of resp...
متن کاملRespiratory Burst Process in Diabetic Children
BACKGROUND Increased rate of infections in diabetes mellitus (DM) is an accepted fact. Pathophysiologically, several tasks of the immune system could be involved including polymorphonuclear (PMN) functions. OBJECTIVES The aim of this research was to evaluate the respiratory burst process of PMNs that is an essential part of phagocytosis, in children with DM. PATIENTS AND METHODS Fifty two c...
متن کاملIncreased respiratory burst in myeloperoxidase-deficient monocytes.
Studies of the respiratory burst in myeloperoxidase (MPO) deficient monocytes were undertaken to assess the physiologic consequence of the absence of MPO in these cells. As previously demonstrated with neutrophils, MPO-deficient monocytes had a greater initial rate, duration, and total superoxide production in response to phagocytosis of zymosan than did normal monocytes. Introduction of purifi...
متن کاملActivation of the respiratory burst oxidase.
The respiratory burst oxidase of phagocytes and B lymphocytes catalyzes the reduction of oxygen by NADPH to form O2-, the precursor of a group of reactive oxidants that are employed by phagocytes as microbicidal agents. The enzyme is active in stimulated cells but dominant in resting cells. It molecular weight guanine nucleotide-binding protein. The components p22phox and gp91phox from cytochro...
